Pasko Na!

Christmas, my child, is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it's Christmas.

Happy Christmas to everyone!

No place like home

After 72 days in Japan (and yes it was really wonderful), I whispered to myself when I was sitting on the plane, that there's no place like home.

Hello! Jollibee, Aristocrat, Max's Fried Chicken, Goldilocks, sotanghon, nilaga, palabok, adobo, sinigang, lechon kawali, traffic, heat, dust and a whole lot more!

I'm back to blogging in the next few days, just give me a little more time to adjust and collect my thoughts and photos for my posts.

Blog Break

I am currently on a blog break as I have to finish a project in Japan. But if you have something you want to share about Sampaloc, please feel free to e-mail me at painted1981@yahoo.com and I'd happily post it. For now please follow my adventures at http://alingnenesarisaristore.blogspot.jp/. Thank you!

Ang Gubat

The peeps from Balic-balic or those who studied in Holy Trinity Academy are pretty familiar with this area along Craig Street. 
There's also a resto/bar along this area but I'm saving it for another post.
