Skywalk + Edge Coaster = Sky Coasting

 Just months ago, my friends and I visited the beautiful city of C E B U !
We sure had a lot of things to do in mind. Our journey took us from the city to the breathtaking towns of Badian, Alegria and Moalboal. But for now, I'll be sharing with you my experience at Crown Regency Hotel's SKYWALK and EDGE COASTER.


So it was actually my first time to be walking 126.55 meters (to be exact) above the ground with an overhead safety harness. Whew! At first glance, it looked pretty easy until the moment I took my first step. 
I COULDN'T MOVE!!!

Well, this crazy lady is my cousin. She seems to have been working here for a long time. Just kidding! She's just so comfortable with dangling her leg/s everywhere. Can't blame her. It's her nth time doing this "Skywalk" thing.

This was a relief! But I still felt nauseous and I couldn't believe I just made it halfway.

I just wanted to sit there forever but you see, my friends loved it a lot. Hahaha.

This photo was taken before I took my first step and right after we took our International Buffet Dinner on the 32nd (?) floor. Hmmm... The package we took was the one with the buffet dinner but since the restaurant closes at 10pm, we had dinner before the nerve-wrecking Skywalk and Edge Coaster.


And right after we took off our clothes, we headed straight to the Edge Coaster.
THIS WAS CRAZY!!!

I thought I would die that night. There were safety straps (whatever you call them) but I felt that I could jiggle my way out of that seat if I was stupid. And, we understood the instructions wrong. So the whole time, we were tilted to the MAXIMUM angle while this machine was moving. Had we known, we wouldn't have had that unnecessary stress, thinking we could die any time. 

After we finished, I asked the guide if there were instances of accidents and he said no. Okay. So I was wrong with my "jiggle" theory.

Til next time!

Chillin' by the Beach

So it was one, hot Sunday morning. My boyfriend and I decided to go somewhere we've never been before and since it was excruciatingly hot, we wanted to go somewhere cool and breezy. We heard about this restaurant by the beach, not far from Dumangas Wharf. They say they served good food and that the place was pretty much relaxing.

True enough, the place took me away from my worries that day. The wind wafting through my hair and touching my skin-- it was just awesome! Just what I needed to take the stress away.

We ordered some seafood including the calamari, some tuna and another dish (I forgot). The food was really great! I really loved the tuna!!! Yum. Yum. Yum.
We had a good time and it was one good way to stay out of the house but not heading straight to the mall. It's what most people do nowadays because of the weather.

So he was happy. And I was happy. 
End of story.

My Own Version of "E G G R O L L S"

Hello there!

Today, I kinda felt I wanted to eat something I could just make in minutes and something I could cook straight from what I have left from the fridge. 

I was watching this show on TV where they ate and ate so I kinda felt hungry and so I wanted to make my own version of egg rolls.

I really love to eat at Korean restaurants and their egg rolls always take my breath away. Hahaha.
So here goes... Originally they used Spam for the meat, onions, tomatoes, carrots, etc. which they altogether put into the beaten eggs.
In my case, I used some longganisa we had for breakfast the other day and put in some onions & tomatoes.


First, you gotta heat the pan and put butter. Then you cook all the mixture into the pan and put some rice on top before you start folding the egg rolls.

And then there you have it! My very own version of easy-to-cook Egg Rolls. :)
