— Mochi Creme

As linked to my recent post about being reunited with my friend Bonn, here’s a separate post about the ice cream filled mochi from Mochi Creme!

It was actually Bonn who first introduced to this type of Japanese food known as mochi, but I never really had a chance to taste it. Good thing though, I stumbled upon Mochi Creme a few months ago and got to try their Strawberry and Purple Yam flavors. Since then, I’ve been hooked.

Bonn has tried other mochis before but the last time that we met, I introduced her to Mochi Creme.

They have a wide range of flavors. From their special mochis like Azuki Red Bean, Green Tea, Black Sesame and Blue Vanilla (P65.00) to their regular mochis like Mango, Strawberry, Purple Yam and Chocolate (60.00). I even heard that Mochi Creme will be producing more flavors by this year! Me so excited! 

Check out my Azuki Red Bean!

I actually thought that Azuki Red Bean’s just filled with Red Bean flavored ice cream until I saw these actual red beans! Surprise, surprise!

Turned out that it’s vanilla and red bean-filled, just like the fish ice cream that I blogged about before. Except that this one’s better.

And here is Bonn’s Strawberry mochi. She managed to eat it faster than I did despite of how cold the mochi was.

— Chewy Junior

I’ve always wanted to try this but I don’t wanna try it alone. Luckily though, when I had a chance to see my friend, Bonn after a year, we were able to make Chewy Junior squeeze in to our itinerary and taste their yummy cream puffs!

Hi Bonn!

As first time customers, we both picked the safest flavors, Strawberry Cream Cheese and Blueberry Cream Cheese.

There are other interesting flavors too but I can’t order everything. So, instead I bought a box of 8 mini cream puffs (P99.00) to taste their other flavors and also to take home some of them.

I’d say that they really are chewy and definitely yummy! Except that they are not as sweet as I expected them to be. Although, my mother who’s not a fan of sweets rated these cream puffs as delish. She said that they are sweet but not sickly sweet. 

Well, I like sickly sweet and I still like Chewy Junior’s cream puffs just as much. What’s addicting about this is that it has a wide range of flavors that you just wanna taste everything! I am definitely going back.

They can be bought for P45.00 (Deluxe flavors) and P55.00 (Premium flavors). Other than cream puffs, they also cater Italian food! Yes, like pizza and gelato.  

Now, go check out their branch at SM Megamall and send me some of their mini cream puffs!

— After A Year

The last time that I’ve seen my friend, Bonn was at our Grad day & it’s already been a year since that event. We have planned several times on when we’re going to see each other but it has always failed due to our conflicting schedules and bankruptcy-cause we’re in college.

But now that my summer-heaven is at its furthermost part and I’ll be going back to school after a week, I decided that I have to push through to this meeting with Bonn even if my wallet’s still eating dust. It just doesn’t matter anymore, I. Really. Need. To. See. Her.

5th of May at SM Megamall, I was able to see and actually talk to her again. It was bad timing though ‘cause the place was packed due to the mall’s seasonal sale. We ate our lunch first at Cerealicious and exchanged gifts which were supposed to be given last Christmas. 

Yup, she can still write in Japanese! 

It surprised us at how our gift wrappers are almost of the same material -recycled paper. Nope, we’re not being cheap’os at all, it’s called caring for the environment. 

Here are her gifts for me! I’m happy that they are especially handpicked for me, like they are not like those generic presents that you receive on christmas (candles, keychains, mug)

Along with these gifts, she also returned to me the book that I lent her last year.  

After eating lunch, we chatted for a bit and walked around and then we decided to eat ice cream filled mochi from Mochi Creme!

Mine’s Azuki Red Bean and Strawberry for Bonn. 

I made a separate post about our Mochi Creme adventure with more photos!

After strolling again for a while, we went to Chewy Junior to try their cream puffs! 

As first time customers for Chewy Junior, we both picked the safest flavors, Blueberry Cream Cheese and Strawberry Cream Cheese. 

I also made a separate post about Chewy Junior here! (photos, comments, etc)

I also bought a box of 8 mini cream puffs ‘cause I wanna try their other flavors too and also to bring some of them home.

Other than the different food stores that we went to, we also visited some shops like our favorite stationary store, FUNctional. 

Oh, and here is a photo of how crowded the mall was at that day. Although, consider this as only a few people, there were worse spots like… Anne Curtis’ booth at the Celebrity Bazaar.

After a year, it was fun to meet my friend again. I have lots of friends, some are even my friends since grade school but we’ve only managed to stay connected with the help of Facebook. Like, we’d just chat each other from time to time or greet each other every Christmas or New Year. Bonn was my first friend in high school. I think we’ve been friends for like 6-7 years and I’m happy that even up until now we are still communicating. I may have outgrown her since after high school and I may have always been busy when she wanted to talk, but I’m very thankful that after a year, we got to hang out again! I swear, I genuinely felt at home for some strange reason. Ok, nuff said too cheesy.  

(c) THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BONN’S CAMERA FOR PROVIDING THE PHOTOS!

New theme! 
Still not the best yet but at least this one’s better than my old and boring theme. I just had to let go of my banner and deal with the 250px photos(yuck) and small font.

— Summer!

“I’ve been shucked and gone to heaven”

-Minho | The Scorch Trials

Yes, this is heaven! Even if my summer’s just for about 3-4 weeks, It still seems like I’m floating on cloud nine! Having a break from school is pure bliss, especially if your college’s following a stupid trimester system.

Most of my friends are out of town, out of the country or just simply having the best out  of their (short) summer vacation. And I’m here at home sleeping all day, turning nocturnal, hanging out with my laptop, watching movies and eating chocolates. Call me lazy, call me boring, but I don’t care. I’m fine with this and this is all I ever wanted to do. I just miss my house so much even if I get to come home everyday after school.

So yeah, my summer started like 5 days ago and also the end of my frosh year. Yey! And before I proceed to my 2nd week of summer, let me blog about the things I did and on how I spent my first week of summer FREEDOM!

Of course, the first thing I did was to sleep all day. Then I watched movies, Tumblr, went out a bit with my family, etc. On the 3rd day, I thought of learning how to play the guitar, only because I realized that I don’t know how to play any musical instruments. Shame. I took piano lessons before but I didn’t take it seriously. 

I asked my father to tune in the guitar and I relied on youtube videos on how to play it. Well, I didn’t last long because it was too harsh for my poor little fingers. I only learned   the chords C and F and how to properly hold the guitar :( I can’t even press on the strings for too long ‘cause I feel like my finger tips will bleed. So I decided to play the piano instead. I went back to basics and relearned all the things my piano teacher taught me. 

I’m practicing on “Part of Your World” since it’s the easiest of all the music sheets I currently have. It’s really easy but my progress is kinda slow, like for me to perfectly play the first page, it would take me the whole day to complete it, then another day for the next page. It’s like one page a day. 

But it doesn’t matter, I need to take it seriously this time. I have to at least finish this song before I get distracted to doing other things.

This totally made my day! :D I just got my first 2 promotions in Society6! I’m sorry for being so superficial about this, but this made me really happy! :D (newbie here)
By the way, I have a shop in Society6 which sells art prints, iphone cases, laptop cases, stationary and t-shirts but I wouldn’t recommend you going in there yet since I just verified it today and I only have a few products posted. I’ll just update you once I’m ready for transactions.
