NUKS NUMUN moment: my digital perm at a Korean salon

September 8, 2009 ·

NUKS NUMUN! is a popular phrase I hear from fellow bloggers these days. I figure that in this age of icanhazcheezburger, it's a variation of the old and jaded Tagalog term of exclamation "naks naman!" (Wow!) As in "NUKS NUMUN! Buhay pa ba ang gumupit ng buhok mo, sis?" :D Barely a month after getting the famous Ricky Reyes haircut, I was itching for change again. It was because my natural curls were showing themselves in their full unflattering glory, which made for an uneven field. It didn't help that the hubby told me he wanted to see me get a perm before he flew ... Continue Reading...

Asian Food Museum by Makansutra now open at Manila Ocean Park

September 5, 2009 ·

Mostly, I like the Manila Ocean Park because it is one of the few places in Manila where you can enjoy the city's natural beauty without spending much. Ever since Baywalk closed, this is now the place to gaze at the beautiful sunset and watching the panoramic expanse of the Manila Bay while sipping a drink and enjoying the time with your family. The best things in life are (almost) free! It is good that MOP doesn't charge an entrance fee just for entering their complex. After offering the mermaid show, the people behind the Makansutra Asian Food Village ... Continue Reading...

Mermaid show at the Manila Ocean Park

June 15, 2009 ·

The kids and I hang out at the Manila Ocean Park over the weekend, just in time to catch their recently launched Mermaid Show. This is a 30-minute treat where attractive (and should I say, curvaceous) swimmers perform dances, moves and acrobatics underwater. Of course it's a given, they gotta be professionals to do that! I must say it's a real delight for kids, who must be harboring fantasies about being the next Little Mermaid or even our homegrown Dyesebel. It was fun seeing the women-swimmers in their colorful, alluring costumes, waving and smiling at ... Continue Reading...

Eastwood Mall & its state-of-the-art cinema

June 14, 2009 ·

Faraway Eastwood in Quezon City is one place I'd think twice about going, but when almost-neighbor Sasha offered a treat of free movies at the spanking new Eastwood cinema plus free pick-up in their family car, I had no choice but to say YES!!! :D Traffic along C-5 was smooth that day, which made going to Eastwood such a breeze - less than 30 minutes! Arriving there, I couldn't help but be transported to another world. The new Eastwood Mall was far from crowded and did not look like the populous boxes of concrete in Manila. It looked every inch immaculate and ... Continue Reading...
