I know this post is still 2 months delayed but at least I’m making progress unlike the previous months. Our 32nd month was still a busy work day wherein we’re working on a bid project. So we went out for dinner but instead of going to somewhere near our office like Kapitolyo or Ortigas restaurants we went somewhere a little farther than that by going to Eastwood City.
It feels terrible every time I post super late blog posts like this. I should have posted this last February but I didn’t really have much free time for the last couple of months, our 1st quarter of the year was terribly busy. Anyway, I do feel sorry not being able to post this after months and so I’m taking a short break from what I’m currently working now (Yes, it’s currently a holiday here in Manila today yet we’re working!) to post this super duper really really late February post!
Bb and I obviously had work on our thirty-first month last February 8, I think it was the time where our time clock was just beginning to be screwed up. We were working on several projects that day but that didn’t stop us from having our usual dinner! Lol, actually the only thing we do every 8th of the month was to eat dinner somewhere nice. We had our 8 dinner at Kanin Club this time.
This is for our January 8th dinner, btw. Super late post, I know.
Since 2013 started (and still is) pretty busy, Bb and I obviously celebrated our first 8th dinner at the office! We just took a break from work and went out for a dinner somewhere near our office! We had our 8th dinner at Rub’s Ribs & BBQ at Kapitolyo. Rub’s Ribs & BBQ is a small local ribs / barbecue / grill restaurant but I think they’re becoming pretty popular and they have really delicious and affordable ribs! It was introduced to us by my mum, she brought us there for dinner. We liked the place and it’s somewhat near our office so it wasn’t really hard for us to go back there for dinner.
We basically had the same things we had the last time we were there, except that we had the Family Brunch of Raki’s BBQ Ribs last time. We had an order of Super Duo Raki’s BBQ Ribs with Sprice side dish (it’s what they call their side dish rice — I think it’s short for spiced rice?), Mac & Cheese, and Fried Oreo for dessert!
Well, that pretty much rounded my 2012 up. It’s pretty short for everything but I’m pretty lazy and busy to actually write everything in words so I hope these instagram photos help you guys to visualize how my previous year was for me. My first 2013 post was supposed to be this post if only I was able to write my previous blog post earlier.
My 2012 was great! Bb and I was able to have a job together in a new company, get to spend quality times with both of our families, welcomed my new niece slash granddaughter, got really awesome new toys, gadgets, and other dream things, discovered and tried new food, and experienced a lot of awesome moments all throughout the year in which I am very very thankful for. It really was an amazing year and I feel really really blessed for everything and every moment I got to experience. I hope this year would be as awesome as 2012 — or even better!
Lastly, thank you Latrina for inspiring me and giving me an idea of having a collection of instagram photos in a post! It’s such a cute idea! I will be ending this quick post by a shameless plug of my instagram (@erieight)! ♥
I know this is a super late post but I have been really really very busy before and after the holidays. Actually, the busy-ness hasn’t stopped until now but feel terrible for not being able to blog about this after months so I’m making time to write this one briefly while doing work on a Saturday.
Our twenty-ninth month happened last 8th of December 2012 and we got to spend it with Bb’s family! We went to Shangri-La Plaza, we went there to start our Christmas shopping. Well by the end of the day, we weren’t so successful with our Christmas shopping so we just had a nice dinner at Clawdaddy Crab House & American Grill. It’s our first time to try Clawdaddy! We’ve been passing by the restaurant for years but didn’t really had the chance to try it until last December. We had Gamberi for our pizza, Fried Fisherman’s Platter, Hickory Chicken, and their half-sized Original Baby Back Ribs.
I present to you, my Christmas Card for two-thousand and twelve! I’m lucky enough to be able to create this year’s Christmas card some time last month which was earlier than my usual Christmas card production time because most of my Christmas cards are crammed. For those who are not familiar, I create Christmas cards yearly. It started way back before when I make Christmas ‘gifts’ for all my hostees and blog friends, I drop or give these Christmas ‘gifts’ or greetings to them via, visiting their respective blogs and commenting to link to their respective gifts. I became somewhat busy with plates and other schoolwork (and later on, work) so making personal Christmas cards for everyone on my list and giving it to them one by one became tedious for me so I came up with a solution of creating one Christmas card for everyone every year. It has been one of my Christmas traditions since then, aside from collecting Starbucks stickers for their planner.
I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays! Cheers! Happy Christmas!
Last Sunday, 18th November was my twenty-seventh birthday! I’m so thankful my birthday fell on a Sunday this year and was able to spend it the whole day with my family! At first, we had no idea where to go, we usually celebrate someone’s birthday by having birthday dinners somewhere. This time, I had a hard time deciding where to go and where to have dinner. At first, I was thinking of going Makati area or BHS area for a change since I always spend my birthday at nearby areas such as Greenhills or Ortigas area but knowing my mum, she doesn’t want to drive far on weekends so in the end, we all agreed to go to Shang.
Our twenty-eighth fell on Bb’s birthday so it was a double celebration. His birthday was on the 8th of November. It’s nice because we got to spend it with his family this time because we weren’t able to do that last year. It was a weekday so basically, we had work on that day too. Luckily, we were able to get out of work earlier than usual so we got to have dinner with his family.

This month’s 8th fell on a Monday, so we basically spent the entire day in the office, working. I remember that we just went out to have a nice dinner and went back again to continue working. We had dinner at Poco Deli. It’s a small deli place in Kapitolyo, Pasig. It is located right accross Charlie’s Grind and Grill… well, maybe a few more steps further. They serve really nice sausages, bacon, and wine. They also have nice pasta, pizza, and desserts. It wasn’t the first time we dined at Poco Deli and we didn’t actually discovered it by ourselves while walking along Kapitolyo. We got to try Poco Deli for the first time when we had an impromptu dinner meeting with the whole create department way back (I can’t remember when!) and since then, Bb and I have been planning to go back to eat again! Since this 8th, we were stuck in the office, we thought it was the perfect time to go back.
