Daily, Games, K. Wasabi, Music: Godot! And One Luv gig + garage sale (0 Comments)
Oh, I read something about a CC fraud in another blog. Haven’t encountered this and I doubt I will, but for those who might be likely targeted, please read.
I got lazy again to plug… And got busy with other things too like PLURK and GYAKUTEN SAIBAN 3. I ♥ DIEGO ARMANDO! I can’t help, but look at his pants in the picture on the left. XDDD Aah~ My 2d list of crushes is very long now. XDDD Anyway, time to recap what has been going on with me lately. I’ll try my best to skip the boring ones. *lol* June 13 — Friday the 13th — the night of our gig at One Luv. ^_^ We had a hard time commuting. :/ It took us almost an hour to wait for a ride. There were hardly any jeep nor taxi. We were so tired as soon as we got to One Luv. Damn far place. I wish they would move closer… Somewhere in Makati would be better. At least we won’t be worrying about paying for tolls. HAHAHA~ XD J/k!
It was already about 10:30PM when we arrived and there weren’t many people in the bar. The show started with 137 JAZZ TRIO w/ MANG KANO. I think they played for more than an hour. I remember falling asleep in the middle because we sat at the darkest area of the bar. It’s like sleeping in the bedroom with the lights off… Except for the noise. ^^; Yeah, I can sleep even when it’s noisy. I think 2 more band played before us. During the second song of the band before us, the electricity fluctuated. *lol* A few seconds later, the electricity totally went out. That was only for a minute though. It was funny hearing the drummer suddenly playing by himself. XDDD I guess the ghosts near the cemetery got annoyed. *lol*
Then we played. My heart wasn’t fully into it. I got mad at our trumpet player, EJ, for not showing up at the last minute. He said his girlfriend is at the hospital. I do remember him telling that his gf is due sometime this month. But, well… I don’t know… I find it hard to believe since he did that to us before — not showing up at the last minute and having a bajillion reasons for not going to practices. I’m tired of him and his excuses. I told my bf he’ll be in charge of contacting him should there be a need. Peace Pipe played after. We stayed until their 3rd song and we left. That was almost 2AM.
The morning of June 14, my parents woke me up early because we’ll be having a garage sale again in my Tita’s place in Merville. I wasn’t in a good mood due to the lack of sleep. There were so many people in my Tita’s garage when we got there. We didn’t know where to place our stuff anymore. I kept quiet most of the time, watched the people look at the stuff my Tita was selling, and looked after our things. I’m sure there would be people stealing and stuffing their pockets with the small stuff.
Some people noticed me looking ultimately pissed. They said the others should move, so we can start our display. No one moved though… Even those people who said so. >_> Then when my Dad opened the box full of bags, we didn’t get to display them properly and be able to watch over them. They surrounded the box. At first, even though I was pissed, I was polite enough and even said “Excuse me” to handle things since my parents seem to have given up. But they didn’t budge. I tried to shove them away. That still didn’t help, so I shouted at them. That’s only when they gave way.
The problem didn’t stop there. When almost everyone left, we noticed there were some stuff missing. *sighs* That’s why I made a post about thieves here. It’s really hard to deal with uneducated people. >_<
I was supposed to go the Toycon the day after, but I was up all night playing Gyakuten Saiban. I ended up sleeping the whole afternoon. ^_^V I so wanted to take pictures of cosplayers. Ugh~ I also missed the WEWY Mingle session. -_-
Anyway, will have to end this here for now. I have to eat lunch then go to Glorietta, and have my Dad’s friend’s Nokia cellphone fixed.

Italianni’s Bloggers Event
Catch the “EXTRA” Experience!!!
Catch the “EXTRA” Experience!!!
Good thing I woke up early last June 17. I was getting my to-do list done in the morning before I had to meet-up with bf. I checked my cp around 10:30AM (it’s always on silent-mode) and read a message from YEHEY regarding the blog event of Italianni’s. Very surprised, I asked if I really made it in the cut because I didn’t receive any email. Since I submitted my registration, I kept checking my email almost every minute and even my spam folder, but still nothing. The reminder really surprised me. So Mac and I had to rush. ^_^V
The registration was 11AM, but we arrived 12:30PM. Talk about super late! Fortunately they just started so it was cool. I think we only missed 1-2 dishes.
Other bloggers; some with their “extras” ^_^
Iggy, a fellow-blogger, is very welcoming and quickly passed the food to us as Mac and I took our seats. Italianni’s served a lot of food — chicken salad, different fish dishes, steak, desserts, shooters, etc. I never got to list down the names of everything I ate. Too busy eating and trying to take pictures. *lol*
Mac and I werent’t given plates right away, so this is what we ate first:
Garlic breads + a spread
The spread tasted a bit of garlic and cheese. This is delicious. I could have eaten a lot of this if it were possible. I just didn’t want to because there were still a lot to eat. ^_^
Italianni’s chicken salad tastes better than their Caesar salad. The Caesar salad is my family’s favorite. We order it whenever we go to a restaurant that has it on their menu. So, yeah, we have tasted their Caesar salad. The chicken salad is a lot better; it has more dressing too. The croutons are fresh that makes not hard to eat for a metal-mouth like me. XDDD Fufu~ I like croutons.
As far as I remember, they served 3 different kinds of fish dishes. I only got to take pictures of two:
The grilled fish is delicious! You should definitely order that when you eat at Italianni’s. ^_^ I think it’s the sauce. It’s slightly spicy. The fish, I’m thinking it’s salmon, was cooked well. After finishing the slice, I wanted to get more, but I couldn’t find it anymore. XD I’m guessing it’s a big hit. This porkchop too:
That’s just super yummy. Super duper yummy! HAHAHAH~ XDDD
Fried Calamari (or calamares) is one of my favorite foods. It’s one of those must-order when going out for a beer or two. *lol* Anyway, their calamari isn’t chewable like a bubble gum. You know that the squid is fresh.
I hate to admit, but some restos have bubble gum-like calamares. ~_~Before I forget, here are the fruit shakes Mac and I had:
I ♥ strawberries.
It’s real watermelon and not artificially flavored
Time flew real fast. I don’t think it was even enough for us with all the food we had. @_@; The dessert went quick. We had several, but I only got to taste a few. We were on a long table. Passing food is a kinda tough. -_- Well, specially in that situation wherein most of us do not know each other. ^_^V
There was supposed to be ice cream on top of this. XD
The one on the left has just the right amount of sweetness. I like!
My favorite is the egg-like one. It isn’t super sweet. I was able to find out its name, but it’s one of those kinda hard to pronounce foods so the name didn’t stick to mind. *lol* My Dad ordered one of this recently, but w/ a blueberry sauce. Still delicious even though expensive. D: Other treats that we got are the baked mussels and shooters. There were pastas, I think, but me and Mac didn’t get to eat any. -_-
So that sums up my lunch at Italianni’s. I am so lucky I was able to make it.
Eat at Italianni’s and get an “extra” on the house. You won’t be able to request your extra. It’s a surprise! When we had a dinner there recently to celebrate my parents’ wedding anniversary, we got a free dessert. ^_^ Italianni’s has 12 branches — Greenbelt 2, Glorietta 4, SM Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, Greenhills, Tomas Morato, Eastwood City, Gateway, Alabang Town Center, Bonifacio High Street, Trinoma, & Robinson’s Midtown in Malate.

Entertainment, Movies: Punisher – War Zone trailer (0 Comments)
Different actor than before? I like the first Punisher movie. There’s something likeable about it somehow. *lol*
Punisher – War Zone doesn’t seem exciting based on this trailer. ~_~ The Punisher looks lame.

Daily: Oh noes~! (1 Comment)
Seems like I shouldn’t have downloaded Firefox 3 yet. Majority of the plugins I frequently use don’t work! I might switch back to Firefox 2, but the quick tabs and that amazing thing with the address bar is too nice to resist. ~_~
