Merlion visits the Philippines.

My super friend, Meg, is in the country for a weeklong break from work in Singapore. It was a Thursday, and the activities for that night has been set since a month ago. We will have a full body massage at The Spa, a thing which she said is muchly deserve. I made the online reservation three days before Thursday at their Greenbelt branch.

I finally saw her Thursday afternoon, with Bimboy. I last saw her May of this year when I visited her on her birthday in Singapore. After the one hour full body massage, we waited for some of our friends to join us at a Spanish-inspired dinner at Casa Armas in Greenbelt 3.

It was a dinner of paella valenciana, gambas and Spanish chorizo, and a lot of fun, fun, stories that laster two hours. And because Meg has not been in the Philippines for a year, she just missed Miggy.

Miggy is San Mig Light. Off we go to a nearby watering hole to see Miggy. A bucket of Miggy!

And some pork ears to accompany us. The last hurrah of Oktoberfest!

Welcome home, Meg.

Dog’s vision is colorblind.

I love Malcolm Gladwell. His books are fun to read (Blink, The Tipping Point, Outliers). His new book, What The Dog Saw, is a compilation of his essays in The New Yorker magazine.

Freakonomics, v.2

Every mall in the metro is packed with people because of the mallwide sales: Megamall, Robinson’s Galleria, Ayala Malls. Last night, while waiting for the start of the Julie/Julia movie, I went into the Powerbooks Shangrila Plaza. I check their new arrivals section, and found out that they already have the Superfreakonomics book. I know that this will be released on October 20 yet, but surprisingly, they have it days in advance!

No choice but to grab it. It’s good to be first you know.
