We took the earliest Cebu Pacific flight to Iloilo and headed to SM City Iloilo immediately after our arrival. We decided to wait for Marx there, who was coming after an hour, and for us to look for some early morning refreshments. When we arrive at SM Iloilo, we found nothing, I mean, every shop, eatery, or carenderia were closed. Good thing I had my phone fully charged at this moment.

I’m easily get dragged lately. My friends’ invites don’t need some sort of persuasion and my nods don’t show any stain of hesitation. It is even surprising that I was able to exchange sleeping (my favorite pastime ever) with exhausting activities. Ironic, isn’t it?

I usually don’t spend a lot for a single meal – even for a special occasion or a friendly date (maybe I am just lucky for not meeting and dating someone who’s too choosy and socially inclined). But a toast for a job well done is a must grab opportunity. It was my first time in Bubba Gump but it’s not my first in a restaurant of its class and price range. As I said, I don’t spend a lot in a single meal (except for very few instances), it is my job that brought me to these places. The ... Read more
