This is one of the new Korean Restaurants in Bonifacio Global City. It is in the same building with Cafe Seolhwa. This is on the first floor, Seolhwa is on the second.
You put the rainbow in my eyes. A silver lining in my prayers and now there's #colors everywhere... 🎵🎶🎼 🍴 #orice #art #ahrti #lunch

It was a hot Saturday afternoon and we were all craving for something sweet and cold so we went to Forum South Global Building for Seolhwa. But we hadn't eaten our lunch yet so we entered O'rice...
This is the cheapest Kimbap variant in ther menu.

This big Tuna Kimbap was our order. I know that it doesn't look big here in the picture, but its size is twice to thrice the regular-sized kimbap that we know... toinks, but size is relative pa rin, diba? Hehe. Anyway, this tasted good! And they didn't skimp on the ingredients as well kaya sulit na rin. I was full after eating four pieces.
And that day, I found out that eating kimbap with mayonnaise and chili powder tastes good! 



Someday, I'll go back there to try their other food options because they have a lot! 



And, meron din palang plus points para sa paminsan-minsang fire show galing sa open kitchen nila. hehehe.

Sorry, wallet and body. Hindi ko kinaya ang temptation. HAHAHAHA.

I went to Subic last month. (Zoobic Safari), then we went to Puregold Dutyfree where I found several matcha products and I almost cried. Joke. :)) Grabe. Anda. :( 


Here's my current favorite matcha chocolate from Nikko. Just that, I don't see this in any store here in Manila.

$ 4.58
Don't get fooled by how it's packed. Medyo walang effort, noh? Maibalot lang. 
Caramel coated almond coated in creamy matcha chocolate coated in potent matcha powder. hehe. Ito na puro coated. :))

The matcha chocolate is creamy but the matcha powder tastes grassy that's why I like this a lot. In this small piece of chocolate, you get to taste three flavors - bitter, creamy and sweet.

I was invited to attend an event here at Super Duck Modern Tea in SM Cyberwest and I gladly said yes. I went not only because it is near (West Avenue, Quezon City) but because I was curious as to how they'd stand out from their competitors.

Remember that time when milk teas were the in thing that milk tea shops were mushrooming everywhere? I do. I do because I went out of my way several times just to buy one. I do because my friends and I went all the way to Greenhills, Ortigas, Makati and Tagaytay just to look for more milk tea shops but that obviously stopped because it wasn't interesting anymore.

Since I've been to a lot, I thought I've seen everything that a milk tea shop can offer but Super Duck proved me wrong. Their offerings are delicious, new, healthy and it felt like this isn't anymore about the hype but something that's here to stay.

1. Super Duck Modern Tea uses cane sugar to sweeten their drinks. Cane sugar is a healthier alternative to table sugar because of its antioxidant contents and its low glycemic index. No worries that your blood sugar level will spike after drinking.

2. They only serve authentic Taiwanese Tea.

3. They use fresh fruits/purèe in their drinks.

4. The prices of their drinks are affordable yet product quality isn't sacrificed.

5. They care a lot about their customer's well-being. It was mentioned that they purify the water they use and that they are also the one making their ice. 


Siguradong malinis at top quality 'yung drinks na maiinom mo. 

6. ANG DAMING OPTIONS. AS IN. DRINKS FOR EVERYONE. Categories are Fresh Flavor Tea, Milk Tea Series, Juices, Yakult Series, Fruitty Milk Tea, Fruit Tea, Smoothies, Premium Milk Tea, Mellow Milk, Nai Kai Series and Unique Blends. Complete Menu link: here.

Ang dami that you might feel a bit overwhelmed when you look at the options but it's also a good thing 'cause you'd be sure that you'd have a drink that would suit you. Don't hesitate to ask for their suggestions!
I was lucky to have tasted most of their drinks. Sa wakas nakatikim rin ng iba at hindi lang ako puro Pearl Milk Tea. 

The one in this picture Passion Fruit Perilla (P 75.00 and P 85.00). Kung ako lang mago-order, hindi ko susubukan kasi ayoko ng itsura pero nagulat ako nung nagustuhan ko 'yung lasa saka gusto ko rin nginunguya 'yung Perilla. hehe. Notice again that the price of the drink is affordable, pwedeng pwede na for a healthier you, diba? Hindi nakaka-guilty sa bulsa at sa katawan kahit mapadalas na naman mag-milk tea.
Some of their Quackers/Snacks

Vegetarian and Halal 'tong mga 'to.

Calamares, Nuggets, Fries and Hotdog. They're all good!
I was busy taking pictures when they said that the quackers are all made from veggie meat so I didn't know it when I first had my bite of this cheesedog. This didn't taste like veggie meat at all. Super like! 
This is the first time that I liked drinking wintermelon milk tea. Sa dinami-rami ng milk tea shops na napuntahan ko na, first time ko lang magustuhan ang wintermelon. 

'Yang may froth sa taas was wintermelon nai kai (P 95.00 and P 105.00). Alam niyo naman, I am not good at describing the taste but I liked this a lot. 
We were also able to taste their Carbonara and Pesto Pasta. Okay din. 
This was the tumbler give-away and the Bailey's Milk Tea that I took home.
Thank you Steve and Dennis for having us. 

Uyyy, ito pa! 

First time mag-try at di ko rin alam na may ganitong #drinks pero bet.👍 Try @superducktea at SM Cyberwest. #baileys #kahlua #heineken #milktea #liquor #foodporn

I was surprised because of their cocktail drinks: Heineken Green Tea, Bacardi Cider Juice Pop (not in the picture), Almond Kahlua Milk, Bailey's Milk Tea.  

I am not into drinking liquor (anymore hahaha uyy anymore daw oh) but I liked these drinks especially the Bailey's Milk Tea. Ito 'yung tipong uhaw ka at gusto mo ng lasa ng alcohol o 'yung tapos ka na sa walwal stage (kagaya ko siguro) ng buhay mo pero iba pa rin pag alak 'yung iniinom niyo ng mga kaibigan mo, okay na alternative 'tong mga 'to. Walwal stage talaga description ko. Sorry na, kanto girl eh. Hahahaha! Basta ayun na nga, ang interesting naman e, diba?

Zoobic Safari is under the same group as Tagaytay's Residence Inn and Paradizoo. Even if I've already gone to the two, I was still looking forward to going here mainly because of the tiger safari ride.


Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and footwear when you're going here. 

Here is the map of the zoo. 
We waited for a bit here at the reception area.
Zoobic Safari guided tour lasts for around two hours. The zoo is huge so a tour guide is really needed plus visitors would also learn more that way.
You'll see a lot of signs like this is the zoo. It was so pun reading them all.
I've seen tigers in several zoos before but they're all caged and felt tamed but being able to experience this ride somehow scared me. I hope they are not starving these tigers just to elicit that kind of feeding behavior. 'Cause one thing I noticed is that tigers here in the tram ride are way thinner than those caged tigers from the close encounter.

Anyway, this tram ride is the highlight of the tour and the most memorable part for me. 
Just like our finger prints, it's impossible for them too to have similar prints.
We were shown dances performed by our Aeta brothers.
They aren't waiting for food. The reason why crocodiles often have their mouth open while sleeping or resting is to let the heat out. Crocodiles have no sweat glands so opening their mouth while at rest is a way to thermoregulate. 
Here is Zoobic Safari's current rates.

There is definitely a lot more to see than what I've included here. I just posted pictures of the tour highlights for me.
This is one of the cages from the close encounter area where we also got scared.

One tiger was roaring so loud at the tiger caged beside it because it didn't eat all the food. Sinasabi siguro nung tiger, "Kainin mo 'yaaaaaaaaaaan!!!"


Here's an instagram video I posted. I recorded the video while on the tram ride.



Kastress ng very very light. Init ng ulo nung isa parang si --------------- lang pag gutom. 😂 #zoobic #safari #tiger #roar #siyemprediako 🐯 #wild #pet hahaha

Kamusta? Huhu. Bilis ng araw!!! 

Sasabihin ko sana ang tagal ko bago makapag-update kaso mas lamang pa rin pala posts ng May 2015 kesa sa May 2014, pero nakaka-miss pa rin mag-blog. </3 Dami ko na ring backlogs. haha. Follow mo ko sa IG mas updated dun. Username: xtintina. Hahahahaha! Kailangan talaga nagp-plug ng SNS account.

I cut my hair last month. I now look like this if I want to.

Take note: If I want to. :)))) Medyo may daya kasi 'yan. Hindi lahat maikli ngayon unlike when I first cut my hair short last 2013.

Malayo para mukhang sexy. hahaha!

Bakit nga ba Soon, June, Soon?

If there's one thing I realized last month, it is that I am finding it easier to let something/someone go these days and my mind is having a conflict whether it is a good or a bad thing.

Delikado pala pag sinama mo 'yung HOPE saka 'yung WANT kasi that means that you're hopeful that the best is yet to come and you won't anymore settle for something that you don't like. Hindi ka na 'yung okay lang kahit ano kasi 'yun lang 'yung available e. 

When you finally understand that it's all about you and not them, di ka na papayag na basta na lang tapunan ng emotional basura (expectations, frustrations etc.) ng ibang tao. Minsan kasi ang bigat na rin lalo kung dadalhin mo rin 'yung pasanin ng iba. If it's weighing you down, let go. 

When you realize that it's normal to want something but it's not normal to be desperate. You'll make an effort to have that "something" but still, you have a life. If you're not desperate, you won't set conditions on your happiness.  Gusto mo lang eh kaya you're somehow detached. Pag andyan edi andyan. Pero pag desperate ka, mas gusto mo na mamatay kesa mabuhay ng wala kung ano man 'yun.  


Ang gulo. Hirap kasing i-explain dahil ang gulo rin ng isip ko ngayon.

Soon. Darating 'yung time na masasabi ko sa sarili kong, "Ahhhhh, kaya pala ako naguluhan noon.

Hindi ko man makita pa 'yung reasons kung bakit ganito e alam kong darating din ako dun sa panahon na 'yon. Soon. Sabi nga, 
 "You don't have to force something that's truly meant to be." Darating din 'yung tamang oras. Hehehe.

My prayer is that matutunan kong ma-recognize kung alin ba talaga 'yung mga essentials, mga kung ano na dapat kong hawakan hanggang dulo at ang pinaka-importante sa lahat e maramdaman ko kung kelan ba 'yung tamang oras. Lord, I need more wisdom. hehehehe. Arti. 
#Thought for the day.👍 Dun tayo sa hindi blurred, mas madali i-achieve. 😂☝🌹 #quote #happiness #gratitude 💕
