fly high

i don’t usually do sightseeing whenever i’m on a plane, so sitting in a window seat is not a big deal for me. and for the second time i traveled alone, i happened to get a slot on that area.. so i was just thinking to sleep for the entire duration. i am really not a fan of heights though i wish i have it. 

back on track, needed to kill time for real. its a long hours of travel after all. and since i was alone and seated beside a not-so-identifiable race yet so gorgeous (really gorgeous), i left no choice but to take a nap. fyi: i am not sure of where i got intimidated with, either the window seat or the seat that taken right next to me. geezeee!

after few hours... in the midst of my sleep, i opened my eyes and this what i saw. such a beautiful view, feels like i paid not only for the ride :) this was also the first time i took a shot of clouds from above.

tokneneng

back when we were on college yrs, all my pals (including me) love street foods outside our university. the combination of yummyness and cheapyness are all yours. so when g1 resty and i went to our alma matter to attend the event for tugon we never missed the chance to eat our fave foods in our own nest. tokneneng it is! with palamig ofcourse. 

they also have calamari, sliced hotdogs, homemade fishballs and balut in tokneneng form.

Ramen - so deym good!

its been so long since my last visit in japan. oh yeah i know that bringing up this topic is kinda outdated haha.. but im writing this anyway... i reminisce those days when i saw this pic in my draft box. 

i like soup, everyone does especially in a rainy season or even after having a greasy type of food or the not-so-healthy ones, hot soup is a relieve. and if you want to knock out your hungry stomach and get a little warmer on it but don't want to eat variety of foods then i guess one of the answer is - Ramen. 

i like noodles, it make me full but noodles here in Ph. is kinda lame. same taste, salty with a bit taste of seafood or beef (depends on what flavor you prefer). so when i got the chance to travel in the land of techy and home of ramen - Japan. i said to myself "i dont wanna miss this opportunity". i need to have one :) 

they presented their ramen so stunning.. so delish.. so smellyyy.. i tasted diff flavor. i feel like i tasted every ingredients of it. its so indescribably great!

oishi sushi

do you like sushi? . . .

i have so many friends who are so addicted to sushi. and i don't know why i couldn't agree much. i am really not a fan of eating sushi...

but it was not until i tried this :)

i left my heart in saitama with yu ♥

its been a week since i went home from my vacay in saitama, japan to visit my sister's family. i was just dreaming about it since i was young and then i found myself embracing those dreams... dreams that crossed reality path. still can't get over it. i miss every little thing i'd been through. in my almost 2weeks with them, i got attached to my nephew - Yu. who is known for his cute smile and undeniably charming face.

i miss every morning routine with him. it was hard to wake him up for school. convinced him to eat faster and then guided him to do his "garagara" thing. helped my sister to dress him up. then sent him to his service school bus.

i also miss his sweetness, his kisses and hugs. we used different language but we did understand each other. i guess it was all by heart ♥

i miss him and i can't do anything about it.. looking at this pictures make me smile though it stings a bit.

it has been so wonderful to be able to be with them even in a lil' while. it gives me courage to work hard and save money so i can visit them again. it challenges me to learn japanese so i can speak with him for real. and most importantly, it inspires me to go through with my life without bitterness and hesitations, value everything that i have, i was so blessed after all. i got the chance to travel in different places that i wish to.

love, hugs and kisses,
Tita
