BUM
I was able to go to U.P. Diliman around lunch time. Have'nt been there in ages... Guess where I ate lunch?! RODIC'S at the Shopping Center! Tapsilog/Jumbosilog! Yummyyy! hehehe :)
U.P. Diliman campus is just so great! Even while entering the place, there's a feeling that you are going somewhere else (like the province) and leaving behind the big city. The Oblation then greets you with open arms. The tree-lined and canopy-covered Academic Oval is just so serene and scholarly. I miss just hanging around at the Sunken Garden in the late afternoons... I miss jogging on Sundays at the oval... I miss attending mass at the Chapel... The Chapel itself is so peaceful to look at with it's mini-gardens. Take note of the rotating central sculpture at this time- the Risen Lord is the one facing front.
I did'nt have time to reminisce that much, and there were'nt that many people since it was the weekend. I left at around 2 pm. I'll probably go there again sometime soon, during a week day...
Had a haircut at Bruno's Barbers. I just remembered that I used to go to U.P. Diliman before just to get a haircut because it was cheaper and I really loved visiting the place.
I spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening just lounging around at Starbucks while reading my Blender magazine (The Ultimate Guide To Music And More). My favorite Starbucks drink is a "tall, non-fat, no whipped raspberry mocha for Teddy!" :p Did you know that you can make an iconic Starbucks drink, where all the six small boxes on the side of the cup have a mark on them? Try ordering a decaf, non-fat, no whipped, raspberry, double mocha!
The Chronicles of Narnia The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe will be showing starting tomorrow. Must watch that one. Did you know that C.S. Lewis had a preferred order to which the 7 books be read, which is different from the order that they were written and also different from the order that they were first published? Check out more details at books.narnia.com .
That's all for now... next post is in Filipino. :D
