Beer Pong!

There’s something big happening in the US that hasn’t quite touched Philippine shores. Beer Pong! Beer Pong, or otherwise known as Bing Bong has had such a strong following in the US, more so in the college scene, because it’s both a venue to compete with friends and a chance to drink beer – now what college student would pass up opportunities like these. Of course, what is a competition, or sport if you may, without the equipment. With Beer Pong, one only needs disposable cups, two (2) ping-pong ball and table/s. The beer pong tables started out as just a combination of same height tables has now been upgraded into a light-weight, ultra-portable table for the more serious competitors and enthusiasts. With all the right equipment available plus the growing interest in the US you can just bet that Beer Pong will soon be a regular event in any drinking party.

No Lamp Still

I really enjoyed the trips to several home and interior design depots when we were having our condo unit constructed. I loved picking out colors for the bedroom walls, fabrics for the window curtains, and furniture and fixtures for our rooms. One specific fixture that we spent time on looking for was the hanging lamp. After looking at several light fixtures from a number of stores, I was still undecided. Two years and a baby later, our dining room still lacks this feature. I hope to fill that space up this year though, if I get to see one to my liking.

Cruise Trips on Hold

When Gats and I were planning on a honeymoon destination, we considered going on an Asian cruise. But due to budget constraints, we just traveled to Hong Kong and enjoyed a four night stay at The Marco Polo. I still want to experience going on a cruise though. An Asian cruise would be ideal, but a royal caribbean cruise would just be fantastic! But until our travel budget permits us, plans of “cruise” trips will be put on hold.
