What's for Dinner?

Food has taken over my mind, mouth and stomach today. I have been munching non-stop since morning. Could you believe I had Reese's at breakfast and Snickers for lunch? Well, technically they are just additions to my usual meals. haha I think I had too much chocolates and junkfood while on my desk. My God! Talk about a sedentary lifestyle!

On the drive home, I was contemplating on my dinner. I didn't know what my beloved dad has cooked for dinner but I already convinced myself that I will eat some dried fish or "tuyo"/"bulad"/"buwad." So when I arrived, I hurriedly checked out our fridge so I can already fry my chosen chow and went to the kitchen to see if there was cooked rice already.

They say that salted fish is a type of food for the poor. I beg to differ because I know a lot of well-off people who are great fans of this salty appetizer. Some who are already on the other side of the world would even crave for it. Those who don't eat dried fish are missing out on a lot of heavenly goodness. haha Anyway, I'm just happy I was able to eat what I wanted. Have a sumptuous dinner just like I did!

STS Designs at White Sands

After my trip to Bantayan Island and Yo's birthday celebration at Costa Bella, I really assumed my summer was over. We were delighted when our boss E-mailed us last week about a paid relaxation day. Who would say no to that?




Yesterday, June 18, the whole crew of Screentext Software Designs headed to White Sands in Mactan. Well, almost because Binky and Neil were missing in action. It was my first time in the resort. With its sumptuous dishes, excellent service and breathtaking scenery, I really think it was the perfect venue for our team building/outing. It was indeed, er relaxing. Because it was a Friday, there weren't too many people.




The games that our boss prepared were fun, which really allowed us to get to know each other. They also brought out our competitive side.







The rest of the day was spent by taking gazillion photos, playing billiards, chatting, fooling around and pool-hopping. We swam until all of us experienced cramps . haha

This outing was a perfect summer ender. Let's do this again! Special thanks to our big boss, Sir Burt Lao and his family for the wonderful relaxation day.
