Usog

Do you believe in “Usog� ? My baby was frantically scandalous the other night at around 1 am. He almost woke up the whole neighborhood because of his loud and scared cry. I was told that I got to boil the cloths he wore in the mall when I took him there. That was an attempt to remove the “usog�. And so I did. It worked. This was one of those instances that it worked. The fact that I submit to the practice means that I am already a believer. There must be a rational or scientific explanation on this.

I flew to Rotorua for a job Interview in the District Council. It went well.Rotorua is small town but very famous in attracting many visitors because of its beautiful lakes, Hot Pools, Redwood Forest and giant geysers.Too bad, I did not get to see a single one of them for I only had an hour interview and I got to fly back to Auckland City.Inside the airport, while waiting for my flight back in Auckland City, I ordered a latte in a coffee shop. I couldn't seem to take a sip because I was enjoying looking at the design the waitress made on the froth of my latte.

DEEPER LOOK

She does something to acquire the magic and that is to take the DEEPER LOOK, to get to know the person she is interested with, to see how far she will get to be enticed by knowing more of the person, to search the goodness in the person. Amanda is an artist. She is a dreamy restorer of Old Master paintings at the Metropolitan Museum in New York. That figures why she has this kind of character.

Filipino Sweet Style Spaghetti

-
This morning, I craved for a Filipino Sweet Style Spaghetti. And so I told Claire that I was gonna go to the Asian Store in Cashel to buy that Del Monte Filipino Sweet Style Spaghetti sauce. She told me that she wanted to come along so she would see what else she could buy in the store. Then JC has to come along with us. . There is one store that might become popular soon for the pinoys in Lincoln called Filipino Mart. However, since I was in hurry to cook and to satisfy my craving, we settled to visit the nearer store. And so we shopped and shopped in the popular Asian Store in Cashel. Along with the sauce and spaghetti, I prepared grinded meat, Kransky (substitute for the Purefoods hotdog which we do not have here), onions, green pepper, carrots, and garlic. And so I cooked. I was sure I could never go wrong as long as I have the Filipino Sweet Style Spaghetti Sauce. It was almost like I thought that I could do with more or less ingredients and still I could come up with del...
