This makes me wish I could dance

I'm almost done watching Season 8 of So You Think You Can Dance, but I don't want it to end! I've seen several seasons of this show and Season 8 is easily my favorite so far. I love all of the Top 10 dancers and they always seem to be having such a good time. I also love that there are a couple of Filipinos in this season (Marko and Tadd).

This routine by Marko and Melanie is my favorite. I love the story and the acting. No surprise that it was choreographed by Nappytabs - they always come up with the coolest hip-hop routines.




This routine made me appreciate the song even more. It always makes me smile, makes me wish I could dance, and it makes me believe in love! I watch it every time I need a pick-me-upper.

Angry Birds Star Wars? Yes, please!

Mig loves (read: is addicted to) this version of the game, so much so that he drew his own version of it in the sketch pad I gave him. I have to say, it's much better than the original, and worth its $2.99 price.

Homemade iced coffee

I've been into iced coffee lately, so when I went to Hong Kong I got myself this tumbler (one of the very few things I'd bought, if I may add). I'd seen this before in Starbucks stores here, but it wasn't till I started making cold-brewed coffee that I began wanting one.


I almost regretted buying it for HK$90 when I saw a Hong Kong Disneyland tumbler at the airport selling for HK$60, but I do like the simplicity of this one.

Oh, and inside the tumbler is a big serving of the iced Vietnamese coffee I always have whenever I have time to make it.

My weakness

Durian. You either love it or hate it.

Give it to me fresh or frozen, in a shake or in my coffee, in a pie or in a cake.

This is why whenever someone goes to Davao I always ask for durian. Even when it's off-season, just in case that person happens to come by good durian at the market.

Luscious, finger-licking durian
It stinks like anything, but for fanatics like me the smell is h-e-a-v-e-n-l-y. :)

This makes me miss Davao.

Instagramming

My niece Maxine took this photo of me paying for my order at Conti's. She called it my OOTD. I had no idea what she meant by that at first, then I remembered seeing lots of OOTD posts on tumblr. It means "outfit of the day"!
