Filipiniana

Every year our family celebrates its annual reunion. Even though we see each other ones in a while its still an event I really look forward to. It is not an ordinary reunion, we have guidelines to follow. LOL. To explain the mechanics, every year there is a host family and they have the power to choose what the theme will be. Last year my family hosted it and “Oscars” was our theme. This year is very different, “Nayong Pilipino slash “barrio Fiesta” was chosen. I being the trusted one was assigned to decorate and somehow arrange the program. Hahaha. Eventually it worked out well.  Each family had to prepare a presentation number and its either folk dance or singing a native song. It was a night full of fun, excitement and most of all LOVE!

i cant wait for next year!

lakewood escapade

and at long last, i'm back. it has been a while since my last post. well, its my first and last post before enrollment starts for the second semester. and i really cant believe i passed all the subjects i enrolled in for the first semester.

now on to my post. our family had a short escapade at Alindahaw Lakeview Resort just a 2-hour drive from our house. this trip was planned May last year and because of unavoidable events it got postponed. this trip was also somehow a celebration for cousin who took the CPA-board exam. Enjoy!

Culinary Arts Finals

All must come to an end.  I am both happy and sad. Happy to take a break from school and all the pressure and sad because culinary arts is one of my favorite major subjects and we just had our culmination.

Enough with all the drama and time for some photos.

well, you might not get it but our theme was Italy. that's what this mustache is about and of course the pizza and the flags. this end is the new start of something amazing.

it's easy

my mom is really a good baker (not to brag) and i think thats where my love for pastries came from. however, the thought of baking cakes is kinda tiring. that all changed when we had our Culinary Arts yesterday and we did baking. i was so shocked that it was really easy. all you need is the right tools and ingredients. also dont forget to bake with TENDER LOVING CARE. LOL. we made butter cake and chiffon cake!!
