Octoberfest 2012

Day 303/366: International Beers

October's about to end! As a month-end celebration, the Shell Taclobo family gathered together for the Octoberfest celebration. Colorful shots by Sober Club on one side and international beers on the other were served. A simple program was prepared for the guests and an on-the-spot beauty contest (for straight guys) capped off the event! What a hilarious night! ☺

Treat for the Kids!

Brunei-mate

Day 298/366: Nadine

I adore kids and I love the fact that I get along with them easily. Today, I made a new friend - Nadine. She's born in Brunei just like me. Let me share one cute conversation.

Tita Ruby (her ninang): Baby, she's also born in Brunei.

Nadine (while looking at me): Bakit hindi kita nakikita sa Brunei? Siguro malayo ka.

She's absolutely the cutest!

Baked Mac, Anyone?

Day 297/366: Baked Macaroni

Cooking 101 with my mom! Creamy and cheesy - It's as yummy as it looks like.

The First View

Day 296/366: Window

The first view that I see when I open my eyes every single morning.

Dance with the Wind

Day 295/366: Nature

I love the fact that I live in a place where trees can freely sway their branches with the wind.

Batch Photos

Day 294/366: Class Picture

"As we go on, we remember

All the times we had together

And as our lives change, from whatever

We will still be, friends forever."

- Graduation Song, Vitamin C

Breakfast View

Day 293/366: View from the Lakehouse

Just imagine waking up to this magnificent view every morning. Too bad it's our last day in Samar today. I'm going to miss this bigtime!

Island Hopping in Eastern Samar

Day 292/366: Paradise

I seriously wish I could stay in this paradise forever!

Breaking Waves

Day 291/366: Waves

Today's itinerary was to go around some surfing spots and beaches in Guiuan. I have never seen such huge waves in my entire life. Everything was just amazing! 

Bonfire by the Beach

Day 290/366: Bonfire

It's our first day in Guiuan, Eastern Samar. To cap off the day, we had a little bonfire session by the beach.

Hot Stone Bowl

Day 289/366: Dolsot Bibimbap

One spoonful and I was immediately sent to cloud 9! The bibimbap was served in a hot stone bowl which keeps the rice and toppings warm almost the whole time that Enzo and I were eating. The next time you dine in Kaya Korean Restaurant, spot Dolsot Bibimbap in the menu and don't think twice in ordering it! ☺

The Most Random Moments are the Cutest

Day 288/366: JC and Bianca

Meet JC and Bianca - Two of my favorite kid cousins! People might have probably wondered why I kept on following them with my camera. Well, I just want to capture the most random moments and look, I did! ☺

Graduation Day

Day 287/366: With Parents

As I go up the stage to receive my diploma, I am beaming with pride for I know that my parents have raised me well to be the person that I am now. This isn't just my day. It's theirs too! Congratulations to my Mom and Dad! ☺

No Turning Back

Day 286/366: Graduation Stuff

THIS IS IT. There's no turning back now! Why else would I want to? With the end of a chapter marks the beginning of something new. Bring it on, I'm ready for it! ☺

Ukokkei Ramen Ron Reopens!

Day 286/366: Tantanmen Ramen

Good news had spread across the city: Ukokkei Ramen Ron has reopened after being mysteriously ordered to shut down operations last August! The restaurant has been very popular for its authentic ramen and some have been raving about Tantanmen, a house specialty served for just a limited number of 20 bowls a day. An order is quite pricey, but the experience is totally priceless! Just one sip will tell you that you will never look at every ramen the same way again. After trying Ukokkei, I doubt that you will ever splurge on any ramen wannabe's either.

MEM-BME Batch 2007

Day 284/366: Block EH 2007

I would always remember our cheer during the frosh orientation, "Block EH, pinakamarami kami!" The times we've shared together will be treasured for a lifetime! I love my block! ☺

Lifetime Supply of This, Please?

Day 283/366: Triple Decker Cheesecake

I would never ever be able to understand why anyone won't like cheesecakes. They're one of the best things in life if you ask me! I'd answer a fat YES if offered a lifetime supply, you know.

Hand-sewn Beadwork

Day 282/366: Gold Beads

Some people are just so good with these kind of stuff.

Worst Version Ever

Day 281/366: Wicked Oreos

Please don't judge me for making the worst version of wicked oreos. For the record, I don't have much experience in cooking. They still taste the same though, so that's pretty much okay for me. Haha!

Always Say Yes to Pudding

Day 280/366: Horlick Malt Pudding

After consuming a 6-in sandwich, I felt so stuffed already. Yet, how could I ever say no to pudding, especially if it's malt-flavored? I just don't have the heart to turn it down, I'm sorry.

Rue Bourbon Night

Day 279/366: Rue Nachos

For some (kind of depressing) reason, I've been hibernating for the past few days, so spending my Friday night with some friends was kind of an escape from my boring weekdays.

Cookie Monster

Day 278/366: Random Food Art

Look at what boredom can do to me.

Sundown

Day 277/366: Sundown

It's amazing how the colors of the sky can blend so well together - the thing that I always love about sunsets.

To It, Through It

Day 276/366: Quote

Every word seems to be full of meaning at this very hour.
