It’s the love month once again and everyone is going crazy about it. Especially the single ladies and gents out there. If in case you already have a date on Valentine’s Day, you are definitely qualified to read this. I know it’s really difficult to plan a romantic date without going over the budget. So, I’d like to help you out and give you ideas to have a cheap, yet romantic Valentine’s Date.

1. GO FOR A JOG TOGETHER
Valentine’s Day is set for the weekend so ask her to wake up early and go to a nearby park and jog together. Help each other in stretching. Talk about your food choices and diet plans. You can also bet on a race and make her win eventually. Corny but sweet. LOL!


2. PLAY WITH YOUR PETS
I mean, the REAL pets. Hahaha! It will be very romantic if you do it in your own backyard or at the park.


3. COOK OR BAKE SOMETHING TOGETHER
Go look for a menu of a food that you are not familiar with. Buy the ingredients together at the grocery store. Then help each other bake or cook that kind of food. It’s a good way to bond with each other.

4. ROAD TRIP WITHIN THE CITY
Do you have a car? Well, you can roam around the city and find a place to hang out for awhile. Go sightseeing and you can buy your food along the streets. You can have a stop-over and have a drink. Like on top of a hill or along the beach and do this during sunset. And don’t forget to play some romantic acoustic songs to top it all off!

5. SET A LOW-KEY PICNIC
Picnics must be cheap. Take out some food at a nearby fast food chain and use a colorful mat. You can go to a park or you can do it in your backyard. Use tea light candles or scented candles if you have any. Sprinkle some rose petals or any flower petals on and around the picnic mat. Then set a playlist of nice songs on your phone to make it more romantic.

6. MOVIE OR SERIES MARATHON
You can rent DVD’s and watch movies with her. You can do it inside your room or in the living room. Cook some popcorn and buy some sodas. Bring in all your pillows and make a small couch. You can also watch a whole season of your favorite TV series.

7. PLAY VIDEO GAMES W/ BETS
We all love video games, right? Play some two-player games like Street Fighter, Tekken, or whatever you can think of, then the loser will have to do something. I’m sure this is really fun.

8. KARAOKE IS OK!
Go for a sing-a-long together. Sing anything you want and be surprised with her song choices. Maybe you have the same favorite songs too! You’ll end up choosing your theme song. 

9. MASSAGE @ THE PARK
Getting a nice massage at the park is cheaper than in a spa. You’ll be sitting next to each other and enjoy watching her get tickled. (I don't have any other photo. Sorry LOL)

10. BUILD A NICE FORT INSIDE YOUR ROOM
Use a lot of blankets and make a nice and cozy fort like this. Turn off the room lights and use some old Christmas lights to make it more romantic. Again, the more pillows the better. Use tea lights or flame-less candles too. Sprinkle rose petals for that romantic touch and spray some citrus or flowery perfume to set the mood.

There you go! Hope this post helps you in any way. Just remember to enjoy the day together.
Thanks for reading my blog! Happy Valentine’s Day! <3

WARNING: IF YOU ARE BELOW 18 YEARS OLD AND IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE READING THIS, PLEASE LEAVE THIS SITE IMMEDIATELY. COZ THIS WILL BE VERY INTENSE AND YOU WILL NOT LIKE EVERYTHING THAT IS WRITTEN HERE.

Oh come on, let’s be real here. If you’re an adult, sexually active, and you have your parents permission to do so, HAHA! You at one time, experienced one-night stands or has the desire to try it. One-Night Stand is a sexual escapade for both single men and women. One-Night Stands is uncontrollable in some instances. I am not saying this happens to all of us, but it happens to some of us.

There are some rules to consider before you hook up with someone. This is not based on my experience ha! This is based on different stories of some of my friends. #CHOS!

1. NO HOOK-UPS WHEN YOU’RE IN A RELATIONSHIP

- Don’t go out looking for a one-night stand if you are not single! You know it’s not right. I can relate. Hahaha! Kaya andaming lumalabas na mga teleserye about pagtataksil dahil diyan sa mga hook-up2x ng mga taken na yan eh! Again, hook-up is only good for SINGLE men and women. PERIOD!

2. IT’S JUST SEXUAL URGE. NO EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT!
- You have to be sure that you are just doing it for sex! No more, no less. Keep it in mind that it will be a short-lived physical interaction. Keep your expectations low. Wag mag-expect na magiging kayo na after ng sex! Agad-agad??! Ganon?!

3. PRACTICE SAFE SEX
- No glove, no love. Use protection at all times. Girls, please bring condoms too. It’s not just the guy’s job to bring gloves.

4. DON’T GO WASTED
- You need a lot of energy and perfect state of mind while enjoying yourself together. Going out too drunk will dissatisfy your partner. You’ll end up sleeping or worse, releasing everything inside your stomach to the world! Eeww!

5. SAY THANK YOU!
- Don’t go running out after that passionate and steamy sex! (Whew! Ansaveh?!) Be polite to say, “Thanks for the time. I enjoyed it." IF, YOU REALLY ENJOYED IT. If not, you still have to say thanks. That’s it. Girls, you can leave your number. Don’t ask for his. Why? Read RULE NUMBER 2. Guys, please be polite too. Don’t be a douchebag. You might ruin the opportunity to see this hot woman again.

6. GET OVER IT WHEN IT’S DONE
- Kumbaga in layman’s term, MOVE ON. I actually don’t want to add this but this is really important. According to RULE NUMBER 2, you should not be attached to the person you hooked up with. Once is all it takes. Just get over it and forget everything happened.


I hope I imparted good things to you. I’m not saying you should go for one-night stands. This is just my opinion and I want to share tips for those who are into this kind of short-lived fantasies. Just remember to be healthy, be careful, and avoid carelessness. Please don’t ruin your life by making bad decisions because you’re just horny.

My office mates invited me and really pushed me to join them to eat dinner in Cafe Marco @ the Marco Polo Hotel. I was really hesitant since I know it’s P990 per person! I have never eaten an almost a thousand peso buffet noh! Jusko! Anong meron don? Bakit ang mahal? Nahihilo na nga ako sa Viking’s dahil sa dami ng pagkain at sa presyo nitong P800+ per person!


Well since it was pay day, and I really want to blog about it! (Ambait ko lang kasi iniisip ko pa rin kayong mga readers ko. Charot! As if andami kong readers. LOL!) I have decided to join and eat dinner with them. And by the way, it’s my first time to go to Marco Polo. Hihihi!


Of course someone has to make reservations! Thanks to Joni for doing that. (Read my blog about Buffets here para malaman niyo. Hihihi)


We arrived famished after a hard days work. (Charot!) These funny looking staff assisted us to our table near the window or garden something and I realized the place is really nice. “Funny looking” kasi theme nila OctoberFest tapos naka-Irish costume ang lahat ng waiters and waitresses.


We checked all of the food. Here are some snap shots from my phone.


The Main Course Section






Sushi Counter! Yummy!





Drool worthy desserts!






Looks like Minnie Mouse right?! It’s actually a Chocolate Mousse! Pagbasa niyo MOUSE noh? Hahaha! Lakas ko lang mang-trip! Hehehe.



One of the yummiest desserts!


I also tried their soft ice cream. I grabbed a small bowl kasi umapaw ang ice cream sa cone! Ito ang result kung hindi ka marunong gumamit ng ice cream machine. Hahaha! At para di mapahiya, nilagyan ko na lang ng kung anong ek-ek para may design kuno. Hahaha!



I also tried their chocolate fondue. There’s mango cubes, small round pastries, and sliced papaya. I still don’t get it why there’s fruits. I thought marshmallows and pastries lang ang pwede sa fondue.Pero keri! Kumuha na lang ako. Hahaha!



Ito ang reaction ko nung nalaman kong P990 ang babayaran ko. Chos lang! Hahaha!



Here are my office mates

Here’s my verdict.


A dinner buffet worth P990 is too pricey for me. Even if it’s inside a hotel or they have bigtime chefs, the food they serve is not worth the price. I’ve been to a lot of buffet restaurants that’s why I can tell if it’s affordable or not. They serve good food, but not that many. The good thing about Cafe Marco is they serve different kinds of food everyday. The food they serve is based on their current theme. Like the “OctoberFest” theme wherein they serve free beers to everyone. The place is not crowded so this is good for intimate dates. Staff needs to be more accommodating. We need to call them from far away. It seems everyone is hiding! We actually made a mistake in eating raw prawns because there were no staff at the counter. Pahabol! The dessert counter is to die for. Hahaha!

For sure naranasan niyo nang ma-pissed off dahil di nakikinig yung taong kinakausap mo, or worse hindi man lang siya interesadong makinig sa iyo! Gusto mo na lang siyang batukan o kaya tirisin sa singit para lang makinig sa sasabihin mo. Lalo na kung importante. Like nung nahulog si James Reid sa Cosmo Fashion Show. Or yung eksenang inamin na ni Rose kay Patrick na siya nga ang totoong Rose at buhay siya. Tapos naghihintay ka ng reply niya. Tapos minsan tatango lang siya or sasabihing.. “Ahh….

YUNG MGA GANON?! Nakakainis diba???

Pero paano kaya kung sa text, like ang HABA-HABA na ng text mo. Abot ng 5 pages sa Nokia 3310. Tapos ang reply “FINE”?!!! Tapos ngayon mag-iisip ka kung anong irereply. Hangang sa malito ka na lang at mainis. Gusto mo na lang mag-teleport sa kung san siya ngayon at itapon ang iPhone mo sa mukha niya! (Wow from Nokia 3310, naging iPhone. Lupet!)

Pasensya na kung parang gusto ko talagang manakit ng tao ngayon. Hahaha! Anyway, nilista ko dito ang mga kadalasang replies, mapa-text or chat na mahirap replyan.

10. Ganon ba?
9. Toinks
8. Hmmm….
7. Yup
6. Ahh…
5. LOL
4. Hehehe
3. Sige
2. OK
1. : ) (smiley)



Nainis ka rin ba?
Pwede mo din tong gamitin para mainis din sila.
Ganti-gantihan lang! :)

I love the lights. I love the streets.
I used my iPhone 4S in taking this photo with the “Slow Shutter” App.



It has 3 different types of shots. You can choose motion blur, low light, and light trail. In this shot, I used Light Trail. I tried to adjust the light sensitivity and capture duration to get that almost perfect shot. Unfortunately, I don’t have a tripod so it took me some time to get a clear shot. I tried standing up, sitting down, bending, and even STOPPED BREATHING! I also found wires from the billboards at the overpass to somehow bend it and form it like a tripod. Hahaha!



It’s a good thing that there’s no street vendor or “mysterious” people around the area but still I was very cautious at that time.



Well, all I need to do is to get a good tripod and try again! You also have to consider the weather and of course, the location. More practice for me!



Go to the Apple Store now and install the “Slow Shutter” app!

She’s the cutest thing on earth! Storm is the newest pup in Hinggo Nation. She’s a 4 month old Dachshund and she loves to run and play… and BITE! Whew! She’s too cute coz she’s all covered in black fur, that you can’t even tell she has eyes! LOL.


We call her Storm after the passing of our dog Thunder, w/c is a Dachshund too. :) I had to look for a replacement coz it really saddened everyone in the house. I had problems in finding a new one. But I guess Storm is the right one and we know that God planned everything.


Now I realized that having a new dog is very expensive! LOL. She needs booster shots and vitamins, weekly check ups, and meticulous care. I’m glad she’s part of our family now. She gives happiness to all of us.


Welcome to the HINGGONation Stormy!
