Superman - DC Comics Shirt

ABBEY: I'm a fan of Superman. When I was a kid I always watch Christopher Reeves' Superman in betamax :) I remember that I do have a Superman costume when  I'm in kindergarten. Now that I grew up, it will be very awkward and awful to wear that kind of costume again. Good thing is that they're selling shirts like this. 

The shop where we bought the shirt is at the 2nd level of Suntec City Mall. They have a variety of designs for different superheroes. Wearing the shirt makes me feel that I'm Superman again :)




WILL: We want a pre-nup shoot with a casual get-up. So we decided for DC shirts and the character, of course, Superman :)
      We have this shirt for a sale price of S$ 20.00 each, that was its half price. 
     This is a good shirt, the smoothness of this cloth, it is so fine. Hope to have other shirts from DC, pag nagsale n ulit sila :) of course. I am thinking to have green lantern next year before. Wear it while watching the movie. hehehe

Häagen-Dazs ® Singapore


ABBEY:
Häagen-Dazs is the ice cream parlor that I always see whenever I go to work. I can tell that there are Pinoys working cause when I pass by one night, they're playing Pinoy music :) And I was not wrong, the staff that served our order was a Pinay. The ice cream was creamy. And the chocolate was very rich. Man, that was good. Baby don't be surprise if you see it in our fridge :)

WILL: This is after our visit at Donut Factory, Still craving for sweet so we headed to the nearest Häagen-Dazs. 
      So the ice cream was served with smoke. Cute right? Price range from S$15.00 and up. This is the cheapest, as I remember. They fulfilled my cravings.

Sentosa - Asia's Favorite Playground

ABBEY:
Choice of Thrill? Parajump? It made me stressful a week before the event. I don't know how to say to Wilma that I want to back out. Its not that I'm afraid of heights, but I'm not used to ride all those kind of amusements. "OK lang, nandyan na e" Parajump is jumping in a 5-storey platform with only harness in your back. All you have to do is to jump out of the platform after they counted 3. It was a great experience. I screamed like a bass soloist and Wilma can't resist to laugh at it. :) This year, Sentosa is having a ticket sale again, approximately 50SGD for choice of thrill or fun. Grab some now :)




WILL: Choice of Fun or Choice of Thrill? Syempre I chose the THRILL.. 
      Can not wait for that day for my first ParaJump. Wooohoooo. Adrenaline rush tlga. I hope we can try the Megazip next year with Ate Loide. 
      Then here comes the Luge, so this is like a go-cart. Whenever I see a space, singit lng ng singit maunahan lng si Abbey. ahaha. Pero I think he is so gentleman to let me win. 
     The skyride just gave us a nice view of Beaches of Sentosa, while the CineBlast-Extreme Log Ride gave Abbey a hard time, he almost puke. But we enjoyed the 4D Magix. hehehe. Kakatuwa.
     We linger in to their beaches also, just roam around and watch people having their fun with water and sand.

Chinese and Japanese Garden Singapore

Abbey:
From bahay, nag-bus kami papuntang Woodlands MRT (Red line), then Clementi (Green line) at last stop is Chinese Garden. Makulimlim pa lang nung umalis kami, pero pagdating sa garden bumuhos na talaga ang ulan. Nung medyo humina na, we proceed sa pasyal namin. Una namin nakita yung Chinese tower. Parang kasing laki nung tower na nakikita ko sa Naruto PSP game, yung hidden mugenjo. hehehe. Nakita din namin yung statue ni Hua Mula (Mulan) . Nagulat si Wilma kasi totoo daw pala si Mulan. We also take picture sa grass art nila na hugis dragon. Tapos merong koi garden din. Sa Japanese garden naman, merong horoscope at bonsai garden. A word of advise lang sa Japanese garden, mag-iingat kapag umuualan at talagang madulas ang mga bato (hindi ako nadulas, nagpapayo lang po). On the way back, puro putik ang tsinelas namin. Kaya nagtampisaw kami sa konting baha dun. Ayun, parang nagkaroon ng chemical reaction yung tubig sa mga slippers namin kaya parang nalusaw. We munched our chichi on the way sa MRT. Until we got home, hindi tumigil ang ulan. Pero it was a nice stroll.













WILL: The rain is coming, the rain is coming, the rain is cominggg.. :). We supposed to do a DIY pre-nup shoot here, but we were blessed by a rain. Yan tuloy konti lng yung ngamit namin sa tripod ni Pareng Arnold (hehe, close kami). 
     In this kind of situation matatry ang tatag ng mood mo and ng partner mo. Ayun, imbes magngangawa kami ni Abbey because our plan didn't work, ayun we just jumped out sa trip ng ulan.
     Chinese Garden, sobrang daming statues, malamang mga heroes nila yun. I am in joy nung makita ko si Hua Mulan. Isa sa mga fave movie ko yun from Walt Disney kasi. Then of course, mawawala ba ang dragons sa Chinese? You can roam around the whole CG in less than an hour. 
     Hai! The Japanese Garden is more of bonsai, malamang! hehe, but when you will just observe their structures eh makikita mo na malaki ang similarities. 
     You can enjoy here also yung mga malalaking turtles, may entrance fee nga lng S$5.00 ata,but the gardens, of course it is free.. hehehe.. 
     You can do picnic here pero dahil nga its raining, even kite flying namin eh napurnada. Pero oks lng, we have bonded, a different bonding, closer, kasi we got only ONE umbrella.
     Go and see this place, endure with Chinese and Japanese culture.

Baked Macaroni

ABBEY: 
Basta kapamilya ng kahit anong pasta gusto ko. :) Except for seafood pasta of course. When Wilma told me that she'll cook baked mac on my birthday, I was ecstatic. My birthday will have a new twist kasi hindi na spaghetti ang handa. What I cooked is my version of buffalo wings. This baked mac will only cost you less than 10SGD. And can serve up to 7 pax. Sarap talaga, Maybe a lasagna on Christmas :)


Procedure:
    Cook the pasta with for about 3 minutes (if you want al dente), drain.
    Saute the gralic and onions. Add the ground pork and cook until it is brown. 
    Pour in the tomato paste paste, let it simmer for 3 mins. Then, add the cheese and butter. Let it simmer up to 10 mins. Then add the strips of bell pepper.
    Pour the pasta in the baking dish and on top of it the sauce. Bake it in yhe microwave oven for 20 minutes or up to the cheese melts.

Rubik's Cube


Abbey:
We had this kind of puzzle since we were kids. We tried to solve it then but no luck, even by memorizing our moves. We only managed to solve one side. When I entered college, my classmate thought me how to solve it. Voila, I finished it with no sweat. Memorize only few algorithms and you're good to go. Now I have 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, Pyraminx, the "Transformer" Rubik's cube (Rubik's Cube Icon), Rubik's revolution, Rubik's twist. Latest one is my 3x3 Wooden Rubik's cube. Fastest time is 2 minutes flat. I hope I can do better than that.



WILL: We have this cube when I was about 8 years old. Pero I don't have the idea to solve it, so I rather have my time to my barbies. hehe.
      Now I know how to solve the 3x3, taught by Abbey. It's fun to play this cube lalo n yung revolution. Kaya pala nakalagay na it can be played by people from 5 to 105 of age, kasi you will just push the button that will lit. hehehe. 
     Addiction of Abbey ;)

Donut Factory



Abbey:
Wilma told me she wants donuts. I thought of some plan to deliver Dunkin Donuts to her at her office after my night shift. Unfortunately, the shop opens at 9am. My body wont be able to wait until then, I'm about to collapse after my shifts :( One time as we stroll in Suntec City Mall, she crave for donuts again. Good thing there's Donut Factory. We were surprised because they're not serving donuts only but also pasta and baked rice, Donut Factory Cafe. So instead of sanck only, we had our dinner there. We ordered pesto, sweet and sour fish fillet, coffee and soda. Ang sarap ng fish fillet nila :) Wilma also approved that. Ang downside nga lang ay yung glazed doughnut. The dough melts in your mouth but it lacks the taste of sweetness like Krispy Kreme. Talagang bawal maghanap ng wala sa SG. Hehe. Na-compensate naman ng fillet at pesto nila :)






WILL: Well, I am craving for sweets, as in very sweet. I am looking for the taste of Krispy Kreme Glazed here thats the main reason why we headed to The Donut Factory.
      About their donut? Not that so sweet, the texture is quite nice. Their pesto pasta, so good even their fish fillet. 
      It's a good experience but I am still looking here in a sweet, sweet, sweet donut with a good cup of brewed coffee. :)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows - Part 1

Abbey: It was awesome, but bitin. The movie has the same gloomy and cold effect just like the last one, marking the rise of the villain. It was funny though because from time to time the main characters would crack jokes, like the one Ron did when Hermione told the story of The Three Brothers. Actions scenes were great also. Talagang labanan na between good and bad. Sound was also great. Thanks THX. I got also a good review of spelling incantations. Accio, popcorn :) Of course, maganda rin ang effect. It seems that magic is very real. Can't wait for the second part.



WILL: I really need to see this film. I am a Harry Potter Movie fan but not for the book. Why? Its either I will see in big screen or I will bury myself into their pages. That's my own rule. Hehehe.. oww, but I read the The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a book that I thought nothing to do with Harry. But so startled to hear the tales of three brothers in the movie. 
      Harry Potter 7, I can't wait for part two. Wohooo.. Dobby is famous and became a hero. So cute, but sometimes makes me to remember Gollum. ahahaha...

TINCHY STRYDER FEAT. TAIO CRUZ - SECOND CHANCE // OFFICIAL VIDEO


ABBEY:
I can't believe I had a second chance in love.... Love is sweeter the second time around. Wow, reminiscing what we had in high school and continuing it today :) Bagay na bagay ang kanta. I hope and pray that it will last until we face our Maker. Iba talaga ang dating ng love songs. Love you baby.






WILL: Abbey asked me for my iPhone and told me that he have a surprise for me. Ayun, this song is on my playlist. Nice to hear a music like this, very uplifting unlike other musics that was all about bitterness.

East Coast Park Singapore

Abbey: Matagal ko nang naririnig itong East Coast Park (ECP) sa mga officemates ko. Dito kasi sila nag-jo-jogging. The place is good. Merong cable wake boarding na parang CWC :). Ang pinaka-gusto kong gawin sa pagpunta namin dito ay yung mag-bike. And take note hindi ordinary bike, tandem bicycle po. That's right, yun yung bike na dalawa ang rider. Pangarap ko na nung bata pa ako na makasakay sa ganito.  Buti at may ganito sa East Coast kasi kung mag si-single ako, ako lang nag makakapagbike. Di pala marunong mag-bike si Wilma. Kaya this is the for her to learn. Habang ako ang nagmamaneho, siya naman ang nagpe-pedal. Pag pagod na siya ako na lahat. As we pedal, we saw people having picnics and bbq, building sand castles, fishing, skating. May isang place pa dun na para lang sa mga nag-e-extreme skate boarding. Yung may ramps pa talaga. The cost for a tandem bike rental is 8-10SGD per hour. Exhausted from biking, we headed for the bus stop, ate dinner, then home.

WILL: Marunong akong magbike noh, but I am not quite sure if I can do it pa.. hehehe.. 
      Well, the outcome of doing twin bike, eh I took a rest at the back. hehehe.. This is a cute bonding time with your loved ones or family and staying in fit. Wag lang uulan. hehe..

Borders - Where Minds Meet



 ABBEY:
After my gift from Manny (a bout with Antonia Margarita), then came the Borders. I convinced Wilma to go to the booksale, because I want her to get a new book for a cheaper price of course. :) Once there, she went her way to the novels. For me, to the computer books, trying to find a book about Oracle. After searching dozens of books, I found three, but they're worth the search :) ASM, Oracle 10g, and Oracle OCP exam tips. Di pa nga ako OCA, OCP na agad book ko. Hahaha. And as we are about to pay the books, there came my birthday surprise. "All those who celebrate their birthdays today, more book discounts." Just kidding. The announcement was all computer books will be 5SGD only. Imagine, PHP9k worth of books now only PHP150. Happy birthday to me :)


WILL: It will be unusual if it doesn't rain in our town in weekends. As in heavy rain poured down last November 14, so I am thinking not to go to Borders markdown price, but baby insisted.
      After side trip in Cosplayers in AFA X, we went to Borders Books. Ayun, so many books I don't know where to start the hunt. 
      I ended up buying 2 fiction books and Trump's for only S$5.00. But Abbey has books that have a great great discount and very helpful for his love job. 
      I hope there will be books regarding international trade for next year's sale. hehe.. I am just demanding. Tapos tag price sana S$2.00 heheehe.

Batchoy


VERDICT:

WILL: This is the viand I am talking about on my recent post... The Batchoy. 
It was my first day of work on a foreign country, so I am little bit exhausted due to many changes for the new job. When I got home, Abbey ask me to look at casserole, then I just tell okay, thinking it is a nilaga. 
Aba! When he is serving the food, I smelled a familiar scent! It was my fave fave ulam.
The taste is so fine, bit spicy, and the sayote is half-cooked. 
So happy to have a man like Abbey.. sarap magluto.

Pizza Hut Singapore



Abbey:
Nakatunog na naman si Wilma na dito kami kakain. It was supposed to be my surprise to her kasi pag nakikita niya yung ad ng 7-cheeses ng Pizza Hut she's really craving for it. Kaya one Sunday after church, I told her that we will go to Harbourfront Centre para maghanap nung yarn para sa curtain namin. Ang mali ko lang hindi agad kami nagpunta sa Pizza Hut, naglibot muna. Nabuko tuloy ako. But I knew she was happy. We were greeted by the staff and I ask them if they have a table for two. We made our order and as we waited for the sumptuous pizza we noticed that almost all the staff were Filipino. Ang galing parang nasa Pinas na ulit kami. The soup came. It was good. Then the pizza. I remember I heard a "wow" from Wilma. Tuwang-tuwa siya sa cheese. After saying graces, nilantakan na namin ung food. The drink is called Emerald Sparkle. Para siyang Sprite spiked with green apple syrup. Sarap, ang tamis. Pizza Hut offers this meal for two for about 25SGD. Sarap at reasonable ang price. Ulit-uli :)


 
WILL: Whoa! Mess up again with my Abbey's surprise, sorry darl! hehe. So we, finally ate at Pizza Hut Singapore. :) What the fuzz with their place? The seven cheeses.. What I expect? Salty, but its not that so salty. Yeah maalat but creamy. 
      Pizza Hut Malaysia, eh maanghang ang timpla, Pizza Hut China, you'll make an effort to blend some salt and pepper to savor up their food, because its bland pero naguumapaw sa meat. Ito, just what my taste buds is looking for the past few days.
      After the saltiness, eat some brownies and ice cream. So perfect combination eh. Love Abbey, thanks a lot!
