Happy Birthday, Joie! (a.k.a. Enzo)

“Be a strong man when you grow up.” Ate Angel’s birthday wish for Joie (and for herself? Hehe..She might be so worried because she knows, someday, she’ll be in-charge of Joie :)) It will be really so much harder being a special man than to be a special child, that is why she wished him to be strong. No worries Ate, with your wish and Mama and Daddy’s guidance and support, I still believe in hope and I know it’s not just hype that sooner or later Joie will be able to take care of himself and learn how to read this post, and just smile at it :) For the meantime, I just wish Joie a very happy birthday, may God continue to bless you every single minute of your life.  I believe that you always feel how much I truly love you with all my heart (of course, Daddy and Ate, do so, too!)

Later we will have a simple celebration at school. A look up at what we prepared --

Ha Yuan Greenhills Town Center

One of my everyday favorite foods (buchi, vegetarian siopao, and fresh lumpia) are made from this store. I'm almost here everyday, since it opened this branch near our place. I just can't get enough! :)

Sumo Sam Greenhills Town Center

When you come across Granada Street, you'll never miss to see Mc Donald's (w/c is beside Sumo Sam) and when you see this resto, you'll notice its red door. It looked big and heavy but when you open it, it is so light and swingy, nice! The food are ok but a bit costly. No description in each menu, just pictures and the waiter can't describe either. He always have to ask the chef, everytime. In the end, one of the food we ordered didn't match the description, so sad.

If there’s any reason I’ll be going back to Sumo SamGranada, it will be the ambiance, especially this red door, I really adore! :)

Joie's favorite branch ~ Mc Donald's Granada, now open!

Alcatel onetouch GLAM 810D

I was so thrilled last night to open this bag.  Inside is a GLAM gizmo.  Being techie needs not to be a boring black, sometimes :)

So there it is...It looked like a compact mirror but it's a new phone! Shining shimmering splendid :)

What's in the box?~ phone, charger, usb adapter, and  earphone  w/ mic

What's inside the phone?~dual sim and sd card slots

and a battery

with LED display, white pouch, included in the box

 This little clamshell formed thingy is so stylish and well-designed not only for the young ones but also for the young at-hearts :) Aside from its physical wow-ness, it has dual sim capacity and has facebook app, too! Not to mention, music, ebook, and games that you can load thru its built in memory or via extended memory. Have it for only Php 3,999!

Fun and functional phone in one. It’s a girl thing!~literally :)
