HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST AMAZING SISTER IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!

Pootie, I pray your day will be as beautiful as you are. I miss you so much. I love you!

I miss home and how comforting everything seems to be over there. Please take me to Cagayan de Oro right now. :-(

LIKE WADDUP.

He passed by me while I was tumblr-ing and listening to GCH and then he told me that Gym Class Heroes didn’t actually sing Cupids Chokehold first, it was Supertramp who sang it first and the song was originally called Breakfast in America way back during the 1970s.

My dad’s musical knowledge is massive. That’s why his coolness factor with his kids is immeasurable.

I miss daddy and his random old school trivias <3

Being in the crazy kitchen everyday for more than 6 hours a day, everyday (yes, including Sundays) finally took its toll on me. I’M OFFICIALLY SICK. I hate having to work and feel so uncomfortable because of my runny nose and drowsy feeling. Plus the addition of my incredibly dry throat and sore legs aren’t helping at all. My body is still not used to this insanely demanding pace and work load. Lord, please help me get better very, very soon. :-(

Happy father’s day to all the great dads out there! Most especially to the second most important man in my life, my daddy. I love you, dad! Thank you so much for raising me well, providing so many things for me, loving and supporting me, being my mentor, inspiration, role model, hero and so much more. I am more than blessed to have you as my dad. My siblings and I, are the luckiest kids alive because we have you. I love you, dad, with all my heart.

And last but most definitely not the least, to the most important person in my life, Happy father’s day, Jesus! I love you and thank you for the gift of life. You mean the world to me. You are the greatest father any child could have.

Day 19 - Favorite cookie

My favorite cookie would be the classic and all-time favorite chocolate chip cookie! Mine has to be soft and chewy. I always like to warm the cookies in the oven (to further make it chewy) and pair it with a glass of milk. YUMMM <3

9 hours to go until my first day of OJT at Cafe Ysabel begins! Goodness, time flies so fast! I could still remember writing a blog entry 3 months ago about how nervous and excited I was for my first day of culinary class and now, we’re on to our on-the-job-training already.

I really hope I’ll learn a lot from this experience be it good or bad. I’m just glad I was grouped with my close friends in class so we could get through this together. I know this isn’t going to be a smooth sailing ride but I believe it’s still going to be a lot of fun.

Day 18 - Favorite “healthy” Food

I like to consider fresh Chinese lumpia as a healthy food since it consists of a lot of vegetables and sometimes contains meat, shrimps, and squid. It’s one of those foods that I could eat every single day. In all honesty, my mom makes the most delicious fresh lumpia ever!!! I know I’m such a huge fan of my mom. LOL But I’m seriously telling the truth. Best. Lumpia. EVER.

Day 17 - Food you know is bad for you, but you constantly eat anyways

I’m like every other average person. I enjoy eating cheeseburgers, fried chicken, french fries, junk food, pizza, desserts, and the list goes on and on. But that was then.

Since I’ve started working out like crazy 3 months ago, I’ve been pretty damn good at controlling my intake of food. If I do indulge a little, I’d be guilty of having cheeseburgers and blueberry cheesecakes.

Day 16 - Favorite thing to cook/bake

Favorite thing to cook: Chicken Adobo

I got it from my mama. My mom cooks the meanest chicken adobo ever! Nothing beats home cooked meals in my book. My younger brother and I love it so much.

Favorite thing to bake: Banana cake

It’s my sister’s favorite dessert to eat. I love baking it because I love seeing her eat it. She can finish the entire loaf all by herself!

Day 15 - Favorite dessert

Hands down, it definitely has to be blueberry cheesecake. I could eat this everyday, forever.

Day 14 - Best restaurant meal you ever had

My family and I, we love Italianni’s. Every time we dine there, we always go home with great memories. One of the best meals we’ve had was at Italianni’s, Gateway Mall. We (my mom, sister, and brother) ordered so much food that I could still vividly remember how extremely full I was that night. I seriously had to take baby steps on the way to the car because I felt like a fragile fat cow. LOL Our server that night adored my little brother, who also showed his deep admiration for their bread, that she gave us two loaves for free along with dips! Amazing.
