Hanging out at Coffee Cat

Green tea yogo at the cat

I got curious with Coffee Cat after having read many Facebook status message from Cebu bloggers and some local runners who are actually hanging out and coming back and again. The establishment is a Davao based cafe that just opened there branch in Asiatown IT Park in Cebu.

Having visited twice, I do like the frozen yogurt and the cafe’s green tea flavored dessert is highly recommended. Their coffee rum cake is another interesting fare but I just don’t like the feel and taste of the unsweetened chocolate shavings incorporated at the side. Their turnovers are, however, disappointing as the puff pastry is rubbery and it becomes a struggle to slice off a piece.

Interior lighting is just okay and wifi is free. The unusually shaped chairs though are not as comfy as I expected.

Liked Thunderbird Resort’s architecture

I'm just amazed at the lines, curves and spaces of the architecture of the main building.

I looked up the dome and was just surprised to see this view while at the Thunderbird Resort at Poro Point, La Union together with 9 other bloggers. I like the architecture’s simplicity, the white and blue dome as well as the arches and spaces.

Got my replacement SIM

Replacement SIM just arrived!

With my phone lost at the LRT the other day, my replacement SIM finally arrived this afternoon. Now, I’m quite relieved that my line is back!

It was a loss alright. Not that I bought that phone but it was memorable as it was the prize for the Best Photoblog in last year’s Philippine Blog Awards. It was beautiful and had an elegance in it.

Unfortunately, with a packed LRT station in Buendia, I never felt that my phone got lost. When I arrived at Central Station, it was already gone.

Was it lost or was it stolen? Either way, it’s gone for good. And so are some of my recent contacts in the last two months that I wasn’t able to backup due to a foulup with my laptop’s bluetooth. Gone too are important calendar events that I’ve set and so are the pictures that I have taken including book covers and some personal stuff.

No, I don’t want to linger on this and worry.

Lungsod, my first Team Manila shirt

I got my first Team Manila shirt

Finally, I got me a Team Manila shirt!

I missed the freebie before, offered to bloggers via their online store but this time, I said to myself: “get one.”

The shirt was from their SM MOA branch and initially, I wanted the red Barangay Maligaya design but unfortunately, there was no more size that will fit me. I got the next best thing, Lungsod.

It’s comfy, hip and cool.

Time to say goodbye, Pony

Old pair of Pony shoes

Time to retire my well worn, well used pair of Pony shoes which I liked very much. Now tattered after two years, this canvass shoes really lasted long. I now have another pair of Ponies
