Kirk and I tried out this neat place in Tomas Morato, “Kitchen of Cakes and Coffee.” You can pretty much tell what it’s all about from the name, I know, and I wish the owners had been more imaginative too, but the place was really nice.
Kirk had a quarter-pounder, which he gave four out of [...]

“P11.50 na po,” he said.
“Kelan pa?” I asked (FYI, I recently came to terms with the idea that I’m probably innately defensive).
“Matagal na,” he said, sneering. “Hindi ka ba nanonood ng balita?”
It took me a while to respond to that because a) [...]


Friday dinner at Taco Bell, with M1, M2, G and W.
M1 complains about her potential future husband, an American marine (!) who, she says, insists on imposing on her his world view.
J: “Mga imperyalistang Amerikano talaga yan, lagi na lang silang nang-iimpose!”
G: “Puso mo.”
J: “Naalala ko lang yung Indians.”
G: “Ay true.”
Ah, college life. I was [...]
