Ellie as a Puppy

Ellie is a purebred Shih Tzu that I got from an American Kennel Club (AKC) breeder. I and my younger brother were longing for months to have a Shih Tzu. He used to have one when he's in high school, but unfortunately it died due to excessive bleeding. One of our cats scratched his eyes, and an eyeball went out. It sounds tragic.

Instituto Cervantes de Manila

2013-02-26T03:41:00.000-08:00

For me, Instituto Cervantes is the best institute where you can learn Spanish here in Philippines. It has good schedules. It is also very accessible since it is near to LRT1 United Nations Station. The teachers are good in explaining. The books, the lecture and the workbook with CD, are good for three levels(90 hours). Recently, I just finished the level 1. Students can also request certificates for every level they had finished. Learning is fun, so I also enrolled for level 2 that will begin on March 7.

First Time to South Korea: Day 1

2012-12-01T07:40:00.000-08:00

At Nami Island

We safely arrived to Seoul Airport around 4:00 KST. Thanks to Jeju Air. We had to walk for 5 minutes to the Immigration after riding a subway/train(had to walk for few minutes to go here). Seoul Airport is really big. Stamping passport is one by one. It is different in Philippines because it could be by group. Then, we went to get our luggage. I'm so strong that I can carry my heavy luggage. Of course, I helped my mom to get hers. Thanks to my extra weight that I become stronger. After that, we went to exit. While going out, I said in my mind that "Wow! This is the exit where Korean actors go out. I watched it in some Korean Dramas. I'm so happy." We had to wait for other travelers of "Hallyu Korea", our tour package. I quite wondered why it is called Hallyu Korea. I realized it later on. The reason is that we would go to MBC Dramia, a shooting location of historical dramas in South Korea, and Star World on the 2nd day and 3rd day, respectively.

First Etude House Collections from South Korea

2012-11-14T09:06:00.000-08:00

I learned Etude House when I was searching Park Shin Hye on the internet before the airing of her Korean Drama, "You're Beautiful". I think she was the endorser that time with Jang Geun Seok, so I really got curious about this when I went to South Korea recently.

Jeju Air with Bigbang

2012-11-14T07:24:00.000-08:00

my boarding pass from South Korea to Philippines

My first time to board Jeju Air was last November 1. I just noticed that delays are inevitable when your departure is from Manila. I didn't understand the cause of delay. My first flight with Korean Air was also delayed last March 2012. There was also one-hour and 30 minutes delay when we went back here in Manila via Jeju Air. The reason for this was the heavy rain in Seoul. It's good thing that it rained after our tour in Seoul.
