Every so often, I still get this feeling of longing for my life back when I was in the US; it was a whole lot different from how my life is going at the present moment. It actually kind of makes me sad, to think that this-right now is reality; that my six-month stay in the […]

2015
So… I didn’t prepare any blog post to welcome 2015. I used to start composing my ‘welcoming-the-new-year’ entry at least three days before the start of the year. But for some reason, I decided to write what I have to say/share about the past year on the first day of the following year itself; which […]
NYC-OH-FL-CA
First off, my apologies for the sudden blogging hiatus. Things got busy when I got to California four weeks ago because all we did was to roam around West Coast. But! Before I look back on to what occurred the past five/six weeks, I want to let you guys know that I’m back in the […]
So long, Bolton!
And we’re down to our last day in Bolton Landing. Jeez, why does time go by so fast? The fact that we’re leaving this place in a day hasn’t sunk in yet. I haven’t even started packing my things; not because I’m lazy (well, that’s a given) but because I don’t know where to start. […]
Boating
Boating around Lake George with the roomies and two other friends. We thought this might be the last chance to go boating because winter is about to come and it’s starting to get really cold here in Bolton Landing. In a way, I’d say we got lucky with the weather because it was sunny that afternoon. […]
So long, Summer!
We made it through the season! Sadly (or not), summer has finally ended here in the States. Not sure if it’s a good thing or not but I am glad as f-ck it’s finally over. I don’t even know how it feels like to be unoccupied anymore. August was hell of a busy month which […]
Three months down, three more to go
Three more months to go before I go back to the homeland and I honestly cannot wait for eeeet! Yes, I miss home so much; I am actually glad I am not experiencing drastic “homesickness”, you know what I mean? But I seriously cannot wait to go back! (I even downloaded a countdown app for […]
Omelette x Bacon girl
We started our training four days after we arrived. I was assigned to be at the egg/omelette station (along with Thamae, a friend) at the buffet breakfast of La Bella Vita, a casual dining restaurant at The Sagamore Hotel at Bolton Landing, NY. And since I’m on the breakfast shift, my usual call time is […]
Rabbits are cute… not
Remember the ITN thing I told you guys about? Well, I finally gave it a try. And I’m so glad to tell everyone that I made it! I got in! I passed the interview and the kitchen test! … obviously Well in all honesty, I didn’t expect this to happen. Right after the interview I […]
