PHOTOGRAPHY LESSONI going for a photography class tomorrow. Had my DSLR camera for a while now but never really know the camera that well. Thru my internet surfing, i do know my aperture and speed slightly. But sometimes it still a lot of try and error. 1st class tomorrow is to the basic functions of the camera and going thru all the aperture, F/stop, speed, ISO bits. And also looking through our photos. Hopefully it would be interesting.

ROBERT DOWNEY JRToday I was you-tubing Robert Downey Jr clips on Iron Man interviews. Came across a clip where he was singing. My gosh, he is good! Especially like ‘Men like me’. By the way, he wrote this song himself. Imagine listening to his raspy, low, sexy voice in the middle of the night. Wow, yummy! I would sure think i would have a very good dream.
Here a link to listen to my fav so far, ‘Men Like Me’.

INSPIRATION WRITINGI like to write. In uni last time, writing my assignment pieces are the best cause i get to blah blah blah for pages and pages. Now asking me to write will take a lot from me. I need inspiration and motivation to be able to write nicely, fluently and charmingly. Maybe it has something to do with the fact i started to not feel like talking much anymore. I would like to keep to myself if i can.

RELOCATE TO CEBU
Today is the 4th day I’m in cebu. Everything that happens last week was like in a dream. I email an application for a job in cebu on fri afternoon, I got the job on fri night. And on wed night i suppose to leave for cebu to work for 6mths. it been a crazy and rush 5 days.
So here i am. In the island of cebu, with beaches, sea and the sun. 1st day in the office was lots of people meeting, name knowing and familiarizing the place. A lot of people who work here are foreign expats, as in the white caucasian. Not many asian. The asian here are normally students in the school that my company has. During these 4days, many people mistaken me for korean and a intern/student at bigfoot. When i tell them I’m the talent manager, many were shocked. I tend not to talk a lot when I’m in a new environment, cause i am observing my surroundings and the people. So far, my boss seem happy with me since i found a girl that is good and fit all his requirements. it pure luck, i guess.
Cebu is really hot and sunny place so the beach is a good place to go to. But i not going to the beach this week. Maybe in the next few weeks.
Going around in cebu really make me a bit frustrated to go out. cause i need to get a taxi and this irritated me. always long queue at taxi stand, and i truly miss my little green car back home. alright.... shall stop writing now. watching men in black 1 on axn now. there so many cable channels here on my tv.

PHILIPPINES VERSION OF CHINESE FOOD
Today my colleagues ask me if i interested to have chowking. I ask, ‘what that’? Their reply, ‘Oh, our version of chinese food in philippines’.
Although i just had my lunch. I thought, Heck why not’?
So there i was looking at the menu (the pic on the left). It has things like porridge, beef noodles, fried rice, tofu and siew mai. But there are things i dont understand in the menu. Like Asado/Bola-bola, Naicha, Funchum, Chiacharap. So i asked... and i got the following answers.
Asado/Bola-bola - Giant Pork Bao (Pic on the right)
Naicha - Ice milk tea (i found out it with jelly. bits like bubble tea. AND extreme sweet)
Chiacharap - Keropok (they eat with vinegar. NICE!)
Funchum - I have no idea what is it. I think maybe some glass jelly drink?
Lumpiang Shanghai -any idea what is it? (oops, i just google it. its PORK SPRING ROLLS!!!)
Cute! :)

CHOW KINGI ordered Chow King in that day. Was lazy to cook. Had a Yang Chow Fried rice, with an egg (100p) and Kangkong with chinese bagoong. I have no idea what is bagoong so i decide to try. It turns out its shrimp paste. The kangkong is just blanched in water. Nothing special. Fried rice also so so only. I think its to fit the pinoy taste. They like food with strong flavours. Its always too salty for me, esp their soup. I also order keropok. I love the keropok only cause it comes with this vinegar chili sauce. Nice, yummy. I kept the sauce and had it with my tuna maconari today. :)
