Pan De Dog





One very fun activity during a day off is to go to a local mall with my hubby.  It’s not as regal as any SM or Robinson’s but I feel so at home in this one.  And one favorite thing to do with the man of my life is to delight our taste buds with the food being sold there. Our main course would be “Pan de Dog”.  One hotdog @ P12 could fill two pandesals (P3 each) and just add cheez whiz (P5)(bought from the supermarket), mayonnaise and ketchup (courtesy of the hotdog stand), Mt. Dew (P15) on the side and voila! Tummy heaven! Whoever said we can’t have happy thoughts below P50 is simply wrong!

Getting Hooked With Cityville


Cityville…  Another one of those social games available in Facebook.  Think again.  Although, it started early January of this year I think I got hooked up to it just last week through the encouragement of my daughter Nadine, actually a better way of describing her persistent begging for energy, etc.   When I first tried it, I told myself, “Hmm…this is interesting yet just one of those games on facebook.”  One of those games that I could say consumed my time for a while that eventually died down, like Farmville or Texas Holdem Poker  for example. At least with the latter, I still get to play it once a week the most if I get the urge of gambling for free. As for Farmville, I guess it’s history for me.

I have been playing Cityville for like 4 days now and, “MY OH MY!” I can’t believe I’m hooked! I can’t seem to stop checking on my “Littleville” twice a day! Is this really the game for me? Or is it just another fad that would leave my system in no time?  What boggles me though is I have neighbors that are already on level 60 up and still running! I am quite baffled as to where they get the time to reach it!  I have work, a husband to take care of, kids that come in and go out of the house that seek my attention and of course the neverending household chores that are also posting as a potential threat to my very limited time in enjoying the game. Not to forget myself and meeting the requirements of sleep among others. 

However, as of the moment, I think I’m able to handle it quite well with a little trick on multi-tasking. I just hope I don’t get too tired of juggling all of my responsibilities.  While I’m at it, I better enjoy the game, the friends and family that I get in touch with while playing, and pleasure myself in creating the city of my dreams, (it’s just super fun to see relocations without qualms from my citizens, is absolutely free and could just happen in a jiffy…truly amazing! I wish life could be this simple.)

Happy Thoughts!
