My Own Stories

Can’t wait to read the books again with these kind of bookmarks!:)

Fantastic Beasts. Property of Harry Potter.

Cute doodles by Ron!! Haha 

I wonder if Ron or Rupert Grint really had this kind of handwriting. Hmm. Anyway, I love their version of hangman! :)) Can you guess the word? :D

More doodles by Ron Weasley! Haha Ron kept vandalizing Harry’s book! :))

These were only some of Ron’s comments. His handwriting is all over the book! Hahaha Ron is really one of my favorite characters in HP ever since. This is why I love him so much! :))

Postcards of Harry, Ron and Hermoine when they were still little. I think they were still in their 1st yr here. Hehe. So cute! :)

One good thing of buying the original dvd copies: It comes with additional hp collectibles!  Yayyy! ^_^ 

There’s a lot of bonuses that are included in the CDs as well like behind the scenes, interviews, games, etc. Can’t wait to have a movie marathon! :D

Need to study so that I can be a great flyer like Harry. :)

Yeaa we won the quidditch match!! Thanks to the best seeker…me! Haha :p

A package came just a few days ago. Inside was some harry potter collectibles. Felt sooo happy as I unpack these treasures! :D

Looks like a real book right? Actually, it’s not really. It’s just a container box. :)

When you open the book, you can find these inside. A set of postcards and the book itself! Cool covers isn’t?! \m/

Can’t wait to read this! Just wait til my schedule become a bit less hectic. :)

Few weeks ago, I was invited to a car show organized by a friend. Went there around 7pm I think to check out these cool cars. :)

One thing I regret not doing during this night was to take a picture of the one and only Ferrari car in the place. We went out to eat dinner for a while but when we got back, the Ferrari was already gone.  T^T Below is the only picture I managed to capture. (Look for the red one near the spotlight)

Wishing for a cool car like these babies. :p Oh well…someday… XD

Me and my orgmates have been planning this for months and I’m glad it finally happened. It started months before when we first went to Gilmore to buy something. Afterwards, we went for a north adventure just to kill time. Well, you can say that it’s a north ‘adventure’ for me since I’m originally from the south (of Manila) and it’s very unlikely for me to visit some destinations in the north area. Anyway, because of the north trip we had before, I had to organize a south trip in return. We don’t actually have much to offer in the south so we just decided to pig ourselves out by finding a good place to eat. After minutes of searching, we finally settled down with Red Kimono at West Gate Filinvest, Alabang. We chose the buffet menu which is worth 595 each. Then we also ordered bottomless ice tea which costs an additional of 75 each. I didn’t actually bring a camera with me so I just took pictures from my phone instead. 

Warning before you order: According to the rules, if there are any leftovers, you are required to pay double. So better make sure to eat ALL the food you order. Sharing is permitted but there are no take outs allowed.

So yeah, on to the menu. For appetizers we ordered these:

Crabstick Roll

Gyoza

Miso Soup

For the main course:

Tempura Maki

Tofu Steak

Prawn Tempura

Sukiyaki Beef (The trap card!!! Just like I thought, we would have a hard time eating this all up. As in, busog na talaga kami na tipong malapit na masuka. Err Noodles and soup in a buffet is not a good combination. Even though it tasted good, I should have insisted not to order this). 

For the dessert:

Chocolate balls (Kids love this “daw”. For me it’s too sweet.) 

We also ordered Buko Pandan Special and Vanilla Ice Cream. We’re already busy eating so I forgot to take pictures. :p

All in all, I can say that all of the food we ordered is great. But my advice for those who will try the buffet, it’s better not to order any noodles, soups or maki’s (since it contains rice as well). It’s really heavy in the stomach and you’ll definitely cannot eat more. Also, when trying the buffet, it’s required to order at least one cup of rice. In our case, we ordered Gohan Rice:

It also tasted good but again, it’s heavy to eat as well. I think it took us around three hours to finish all the meals (well, almost). The one that we really had a hard time finishing is the sukiyaki like what I previously mentioned. Good thing, the waiter took that dish out even though there’s a little bit more left in the bowl. When they did that, we really felt a HUGE RELIEF! No additional fees! YAY!~

Yep, we had a fun time pigging out. Though I cannot really say that I went there for an actual ‘buffet’. Why?

First is because you can’t really pick the foods you want on a certain amount. If you ordered a tempura maki, they will give you 8 pieces of it. If you’re curious to try out a new dish, you can’t predict how much servings will it be. Eventually ,after ordering, you are required TO EAT ALL OF IT.

Second, when I computed all of our food expenses even if we didn’t try the buffet menu, the price is exactly the same! Seriously, it’s a breakeven!

But oh well, at least we enjoyed the food. Maybe, I will try to eat there again someday but may not try the buffet or better yet, bring people who eat so much to make sure that it’s worth the price you’re paying. Haha

After we got out, we decided to walk towards Alabang Town Center to burn all the things we’ve eaten. Then, we decided to spend the rest of the time playing in Timezone.

Thank you Jen and JM for a wonderful and successful south trippin! Til our next adventure! :D
