Real Yoga

ABBEY: I was hesitant to attend our first yoga session. I know I'll have a hard time on that day. We were scheduled for a Yoga Stretch in the morning. The place is at Centerpoint mall near Somerset MRT station. Once in the room we saw our sessionmates getting warmed up. I have no idea what'll I do so I waited for our instructor, Master Manoj. 

Yoga mat, face and bath towel were provided for the session. Water is free but bring your own bottle. I admit it, first time of yoga for me is difficult. But is also fulfilling as I put myself to strive hard to do the activity. We had to cancel our next session since our bodies still ache from the stretch. I hope I can continue to do yoga in the future.







WILL:  Ahm, I do yoga way back in Philippines. Almost every saturday I perspire doing this at home but when I got here, hmmm, I feel so lazy to do it. So sad! 
       Then groupon offered a Yoga voucher for $15 for 4 60-minute session, I really asked Abbey, oh wrong choice of word, I forced him to accompany me haha. Do we bought to vouchers. 
After Philippine vacation I hurriedly booked for a stretch yoga at 7:45. OMG after a year of not doing any yoga position, I can do the positions but nit fully stretched. 
       I do not sweat a lot because the room is quite cool but hey that afternoon I really feel that all my muscles were aching that even laughing makes my tummy hurt a lot! Oh, I wanna do Yoga more. I miss that pain. Haha. 
       Real Yoga can be found at Orchard Road few steps away from Somerset MRT station. The studio, mat, towels, shower room is very clean. If you want to try yoga, here will be a great start! Anyways, thanks to Manoj. :)

My Week with Marilyn

ABBEY: I never knew Marilyn this much after watching the movie. All the while, for me, she's the blond sexy girl in white dress and has very red lips that appears in black and white films, magazines, movie posters etc. 

I must not forget about the prominent mole. The movie is about creating a movie starring Marilyn. It showed how the way she acts inside and outside the sets and why she is acting like that. She was hailed wherever she goes and people flock to see her or have an autograph signed. But just like other celebrities she's struggling to live her life that's full of pressure and fame.


WILL: Marilyn is an American actress, singer, model, and the sex symbol for 1950's. I knew her name but not her works and this my week Marilyn is a nice venture to let the younger people who is Ms. Marilyn Monroe.
      My Week with Marilyn is based on a true story of man who fell in love with Ms. Monroe. This movie has no special effects and I think Michelle Williams portrays the role perfectly. ;) 9/10.
      Thanks to Golden Village Pictures

Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken

ABBEY: For both instances that we visited this place it was almost the end of our vacation. This is located in SM Annex beside Wendy's hamburgers. "Ola, Señor, Señora!" that will be the greeting you will hear upon entering the restaurant. 

An order of chicken dish starts from 150php. You can top it up with 50php to have unlimited soup and drink. The price is reasonable as the serving is big; big enough for big guy like me :) 



WILL: This not our first time here, we tasted this Peri-Peri, hmmmm, I think it was 2008, long long time ago. Ha! We never do blogging when we are dating and I am not into taking pictures. Actually I do not have facebook back then. i am just a loyal subscriber of friendster. Haha. Enough with reminiscing. Haha!
We re-visited their SM North branch. This Peri-Peri gave a good impression on out first visit and never failed to impress us again on our second visit. 
      The chicken cut is still big! OMG! How can I eat all those meat. Haha!
