Boring train turned Artsy Fartsy

Loungy. love the wood finish, makes the whole train warm and cozy!

Gnarly studio! This is the ultimate low brow studio for low brow art!

London! I love London coz of its uber lively art scene. those trains suits as an art studio especially of what it once was - packed full of people and its culture, now, a factory for brain fart.

old, used and none functional train in London, transformed it into an art studio! A great concept that can be applied even here in the Philippines. Old LRT? want one?haha


can't get enough of it? click!

The night after the ULTIMATE DINNER CHALLENGE!!!

2nd round of our food barrage series.

Ran Ramen Tei Sushi Bar AGAIN.
SKETCH to the place (From EDSA) click me!!


Fresh Uni, very yummy.

cali maki at 120 bucks.

my lil sis enjoying her lil cup o' tea

I enjoy eating this.

Kani Salad + Chicken lollipop at 80 pesoses only (not that great though)

camwhoring while waiting for the sushis!

UNI tempura. YES ITS UNI, TEMPURA STYLE, Beowtch!!

All time fave miso soup for 25 pesoses only.

Salmon fat is good to your health.

The BILL! KAching! not bad huh? 840bucks pare.

As I've said, Sushi that my pocket loves.

November 22, the night after my Inasal experience with the wonderful girlfriend - Round 2 with my lil sis and the gf at Ran Ramen Tei! Thanks to my girlfriend for her treat!(She lost our bet in the 1st dinner challenge. wahaha)

WINNER WINNER, JAPANESE DINNER.

That night, Sherry and I ate all the Uni sashimis we can take, and I'm sure it's not gonna be too soon the next time we'll be craving for more japanese.

The sushi was great, it was really fresh! Their tempura was great as well considering the price. too bad the resto is down south (well, almost.) It's friggin far from my place here in Venice (AKA Malabon: yes. we sail with our Gondolas here on high tides)

almost forgot! their mango shake, for 25 bucks only and it was pretty good!

Later that night, while chillin at my gf's. Her tummy began to ache, thought it was caused by the raw japanese dishes. (uni, salmon etc.) BUT it wasn't.

It was simply because of our excessive love for food. :p

The Ultimate Dinner Challenge!!! Bacolod style!

Inasal Express (Bacolod style inasal)

The CHALLENGER: the girlfriend

THE Challenge: 4 sticks of chicken thigh drumstick&2 sticks of Chicken Tail(isol)

wuhoo! go go go!Love.

November 21, 2008. The girlfriend challenged herself(!) to devour 4 sticks of chicken thigh-drumstick (Php80.00/stick) and 2 sticks of Chicken Tail (Php40.00/stick). A stick has 3 chicken tails. Take a bite, and you can feel the grease flow down your throat - that's how oily it is, BUT its so damn good it makes me teary-eyed while eating it.
So I bet her that she wouldn't finish the challenge. If she wins, I'll pay for dinner, and the next day's dinner PLUS! I'll give her a trophy that says "WINNER WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER!" got this phrase from a blog. click me to check it out!

Stick#1: The Challenger was eating like a drifter who never ate Inasal before. took only 3-4 minutes to finish it.
Stick#2: Still looking good, vinegar made her appetite swell. Put some red chili and still was goin like a champ! shyet I think I'm goin to lose our bet.

**5-minute break ('cause we were waiting for the additional - deliciously glowing - Garlic rice)**
thus, she ate 1 stick of chicken tail. I ate the other stick.

Stick#3: She starts to feel the pressure. Literally, tummy pressure! hahaha! but still was enjoying it UNTIL the last bite.

Stick#4 was waiting in front of her to be devoured. BUT SHE GAVE UP! wahaha I WON! yehey!

..and I ate the last stick :D

Conclusion:
Challenger was short of 1 chicken thigh-drumstick and 1 chicken tail.
The both of us ate 3 sticks of thigh-drumstick EACH.
I still can't believe she ate as much as I did. haha!

Therefore:
Sherry's YM status msg: "..wants to pig out!"
My YM status msg: "I'm with the pig!!"

Franco Cebuano

Cast Away - Franco Reyes

click play. please. alternate link

Franco Reyes. Cebuano turned Amerikano. But what's important is that his song rocks my socks off.

Google him.

Hellbent on heaven//Protest the Hero Music


Protest the Hero

They have something common with Seth Rogen. Yup, they're Canadian and they do not sound like Simple f*ckin Plan (thank you). Not sure what genre their considered in but for me, their metal enough. Intricate metal with some real singing and no screaming girls so, sorry, this band is not emo.

HAKAN the photographer.

Excuse me of the mature content, Censoring any part of this cool photo is not worth it.
Akif Hakan Celebi

I am a fan of his photos, first saw his works in Deviantart and never looked away since.

Say yes to Chaos



Trailer:


Chaos Theory (2007) Ryan Reynolds, Emily Mortimer, Stuart Townsend

I guess it was never shown in theaters here in the Philippines.

One of my favorite movies of all time. Lost in Translation would still be my top favorite though.
If you ask me what the hell "love" is, I'll just give you a copy of this film.
Or better yet, download it. (torrent file)

My feet wants to dive into this awesome man-made wonder.


SEAFOAM GREEN IS IN.


I WANT HIS SNEAKS!!!!!

Another one goes to THE wishlist.

Utah-based shoe company, Zuriick, IS COOL. Prices goes from $55 - $90 (thats about Php2.7k - Php4k) A bit pricey for us pinoys but quite affordable in the States. I like Zuriik coz its an escape from the usual Vans/Chucks shoes commonly worn by.. EVERYONE here. these shoes could be worn by skateboarders to teachers to hipsters to etc.

I would love to start a local shoe company that makes these kinds of sneakers. clean cut, no extra blingy design, semi-pointed, long shoes which one can wear on any occassion, may it be casual or not. Something I would wear with crisp polo shirt and khaki. Sophisticated and simple at the same time. Hope Marikina Shoe expo sells shoes like these. I doubt it though



Zuriick>>
SUPER GNARLY! >.<
