It's my 18th birthday!

It started really good, around 11:30pm on the 16th I already got a lot of greetings and when the clock stroke midnight, my @replies exploded and our telephone rang oh my god. It was Cla aw she called me last year too! Love her <3

Dan Nickleski replied to me (again!!!!) lol I told him that it's my birthday and he replied with "Happy bday iPad girl" lol that's so awesome okay.

I felt quite sad during noon lol didn't hear from my friends and my family's too busy with their work and everything yada yada insert I-feel-so-unimportant-today rants blah

But then I left to meet up with Joan, Charmille and Yvon! I knew there was something going on, they all told me that they were going to be late haha. And their plan sort of failed because they were still preparing the surprise when I saw them and I was like "LOL GUYS WTF ARE YOU DOING HAHAHAHA FAIL!!!" and they were like "LOL SARAH PRETEND YOU DIDN'T SEE US LET'S DO THIS AGAIN" hahahaa so funny

They got me roses and balloons lol. I treated them at Sbarro and they gave me doughnuts, cupcakes, 18 band dudes! Lol it was great.

Yvon, Charmille and Joan got me a book aw I already read it but I wanted to get a copy and they gave me one aw <3 I still have 3 more books to read so idk when I'll be re-reading this hahaha

And my favorite omg I actually thought that those two guys already forgot about me but they were there and I missed them so much! Anjilo and Louise aw they got extra flowers too haha! And they bought me a pair of earphones from Philips and it's green!!! Perfect :----)


I love my friends! We're gonna meet again on Thursday for Louise's birthday! He's turning 18 too, we need to plan something for him haha! Dibs on 18 sampaguitas! xx

Great day. Great friends. Thank you.

PS. At home we just ordered food from Shakey's! Too much food I think I gained 5 lbs jk jk

PS. Andy Oliver tweeted me too! Awesome!!

Cravings!

I didn't eat lunch today so I was really hungry at around 4pm after my PanPil12 meeting. Met up with Charmille at the FC shed so we can go home and then while talking at the jeep I mentioned cake and we decided to go to Shang and eat!


We went to The Coffee Beanery/Cravings to try the Coffee and Cake All You Can.
First of all, I was disappointed because their tarp has like, 7+ types of cake there but there were only 3 flavors available. Anyway...


The first one I tried was the caramel one. Then the double chocolate. Then the devil's food cake. My favorite was the devil's food cake because I really loved the frosting. All 3 cakes had the same base though, chocolate. They just had different fillings in between layers and of course, frosting.


The cake slice was thinner than usual, which was great because people would want to try all flavors... so serving them in small amounts was a great idea!














After I ate my devil's food cake (and after finishing my second cup of coffee), the server asked us if we wanted a refill, and idk why but I said yes even though I was ~almost~ full.
So we had another cup of coffee and another piece of cake. I had the caramel one, idk why I chose that, I'm not even a big caramel fan but wth. I ended up not finishing that 4th slice, such a shame.


The cakes were average, I mean, they're not the best but I enjoyed the experience.. so yeah.





We were there for two hours, the best thing about it was probably just catching up, lol we haven't seen each other since the ATL show! So we talked about that and it was so much fun.


Great day.

AND IT FEELS LIKE I'M AT AN ALL TIME LOW~

I'm seeing All Time Low tomorrow! I actually have my gifts already and I can't wait to give them to the boys awww :')

This is unreal okay oh my god I can't believe I'm finally gonna see them aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

So here are my gifts to the band! :-) The gifts cost me 1000+php but it's okay cos it's for ATL :')

Tennis blog 2k11

It's Sept 14! Yesterday was the US Open Men's Finals and guess who won...

NOVAK DJOKOVIC!

       The year 2011 is Novak's best year so far. Just this Monday he won his very first US Open title, 3rd Grand Slam of the year and 4th Grand Slam of his career.

        Let's take this back '07. That was the first time Nole tried winning this title. Last year, he fought Nadal in the finals to win this but he didn't succeed. This year, he finally did it.

        So how did Nole do it? First of all, his tennis really improved. He used to have a lot of double faults, and compared to last year's finals, his records this year has definitely improved. His serves are way better than they used to be, and he's now powerful enough to turn defense to offense. One moment Nadal is controlling his serve, the next shot, Nole is already controlling it. His confidence level got higher too, I mean why wouldn't it? He's the world #1 right now and he has only lost 2 matches this year, one in French Open semis where Federer defeated him and the other just last month where he retired because of an injury.

       Nole is in his best shape and best state of mind right now. Nobody can stop him. He has defeated Nadal in all of their 6 encounters, and he won the US Open semis against Federer by breaking Roger's 2 match points and eventually winning the set.

      Many people used to think that he was just a lucky guy who happened to win AUS Open in '08, but this year he has really proven that he is the best player at the moment and that he deserves that #1 spot.

     Now he has 4 Grand Slams, 3 of which he won this year, and you have no idea how excited I am to see him win more. He's not done yet, he's just starting to be the best player and as what I'm seeing right now, he is unstoppable.

     HAJDE NOLE!

Blueberry tart @ Edsa Shangri-la Plaza!

Sometimes you just have those days when you want to eat sweets. In my case, that's every single day of my life. I try to control myself because I spend a lot on food, and I do eat when I want to even though I am alone.  I went to Shangri-La to check out some books and on my way to NBS, this is what I saw.

How can you even resist that, right? So I decided to have a little merienda alone and this tart did not disappoint! Quite pricey (and the iced tea too omg it was sooooo expensive!) but I enjoyed it!

Stuff!

Camping in Bataan! July 9-10, 2011

Super blog post about my super fun weekend! :-)

We left QC around 6:30 am and we arrived at the resort around 11 or 11:30. We were assigned to stay in this cottage which is on the farthest right side of the resort. Isolated freaks holla!

We got to play ultimate frisbee and skim boarding and it was so fun! My groupmates are so freakin' awesome okay. I love them so much :') We swam on the beach aw yeah fun fun fun!

I made dinner! My groupmates and our camp councilor told me that it was great. Aw yeah.

It rained so our instructor decided not to let us use the tents. Most of the groups went to the bus to sleep because their cottages were wet already. But well, ours wasn't! Before the sun left, we got to put covers on every side of the cottage. We all slept on the floor!

We played cards after dinner. My friends drank alcohol but I didn't because I don't drink. :-) Oh my god our team leader got drunk and she was speaking nonsense until 3am hahahah it was so funny!

We woke up at 6am and we just played "Rewind" until our breakfast was ready.

After breakfast, we had team building activities and well...... our group won! First place holla! :-------)

And then after that, we swam in the beach again. When we got bored, we played sand fight! Ya kno, instead of snow fight, we used sand because we don't have snow!!! They all backed out lol in the end it was a duel between me and my guy friend named Khail. Lol he lost aw yeah! And I made a sand angel haha!

We also made a sand castle. And then we played "Ice-ice-water" omg we were so exhausted after that.

We got to wash up earlier than everybody else. Next, we made lunch! Then we packed our stuff and we broke apart our home aw.

The bus ride was fun too lol!

We all ate together during the stop over aw :')

It was a fun fun weekend! I love all my groupmates oh my god they are fab. Much love.

The beach at Morong, Bataan

Our humble home? Hah!

Before eating dinner :-)

Consequence

My assistant Khail and myself... trying to kill him hah!

"Still drunk from the night before"? Well...they were! 

The whole group before leaving the beach!

My bros!

Camwhoring at the bus!

Best thing since sliced bread.

I'm so happy oh my god. Novak is now the world's no.1 tennis player! So stoked for him. I'm like a proud mom :')

I wore this fab shirt today!

I baked cookies today!

I went to the mall right after class to eat and then buy a book. I was supposed to go home around 3pm but it was raining so I decided to stay inside and just go home when it stops raining.

I passed by the supermarket and I decided to go in and check if they have chocolate chips. And welp, they did, finally! So I bought a pouch of that and then I bought butter and sugar. I got home around 4pm. 

The cookie batter looks really light because I did not use half brown and half white sugar. I used all white because I forgot to buy brown!

I had no idea that we ran out of baking paper already so I just spread butter on the pan so my cookies won't stick.

This is a picture of a cookie I made. Oh my god fail!!! It needs more flour, I think. I need to fix my recipe haha gotta change some measurements!

The cookies taste okay (but my other batches last summer are way better) so I guess it's fine hah :-)
