10. Amo Yamie Crib Coffee and Movie House

10:00am to 10:00pm

9. Coffee Project, Vista Mall Pampanga

First Floor, Vista Mall, Paseo de Andalusia, San Agustin, City of San Fernando Pampanga

Vista Mall in City of San Fernando is one of the fastest growing mall in Pampanga. Variety of dining choices is available in the area. One of the stalls that caught my attention is the Coffee Project. A creative interior is head turner in this cafe. Tho food and drinks are a bit pricey, each of the food they serve is worth the price. If you are tired of your usual drinks at a famed coffee shop (SB) and wanted to try something new, Try Coffee Project

Try: Strawberry Cheesecake and Green Tea Frappe

Budget: P299.00 per head

P250.00 Grill-All-You-Can at The Project Grill, Marisol, Angeles City

I wasn't expecting much (which is very usual to me) to this Grill-All-You-Can buffet of this resto. It was open few months ago so, there are no reviews and so few Instagram post. (Pressure sa reviews, Might affect their business). I will try my best to make this review based on my taste buds. I think it is just common barbecue grill in town, what make it just so special is, It was UNLIMITED!!

My AGOS Co-Volunteers invited me to a Friday night-out at The Project Grill. Tim made a reservation (0917-5081-806) just to make sure we can guarantee seats as the resto is very small and can only accommodate few groups of people. It was a hectic friday night as I have prior commitments before this Grill-All-You-Can.

Haduan Falls, Mabalacat Pampanga

Haduan Falls
Sitio Haduan Clark Airbase, Mabalacat Pampanga

 

I am not a fan of climb even budget climbs. BIOPIPS have been to Arayat and Miyamit and yet I never attempted or came to my mind to join them. I just don't get the idea of being exhausted for few hours just to chase waterfalls. Yung Hinulugang Taktak nga mag-tryk ka lang andun ka na! Haha

How to get there:
Option 1
Bring your own car. Use GPS and Ask security of Clark if where is Sitio Haduan.

Option 2 (Not Recommended)
Ride a jeep with Route 6 in Bayanihan Terminal. You ask the driver if they will pass by at gate 14 of Clark. Gate 14 will be the gateway going to aeta community of Sitio Haduan. From Gate 14 walk few meters going to jump off point. Approximately 30 mins walk.

Option 3 (Recommended)
Hire a jeepney at Clark. Any of the C-Point Balibago or Highway bound jeep can go there. Just ask the driver first if he knows Sitio Haduan because Clark is not a joke. We even ended up going to Bamban Tarlac because our driver is not familiar with Sitio Haduan. No need to walk for 30 mins going to jump-off point.

Best Advice is to Ask the Security guards of Clark. They are everywhere!! I tell you getting lost is such a waste of time. Thank you lang naman ang kapalit ng tanong.

Volunteer at A Glass of the Sea by The Mind Museum

Officially part of The Mind Museum Volunteers.

I've been itching to go to Mind Museum for a long time. I am a science teacher and yet I've never been there. We always try to visit the museum during promo days but we failed to do so because of personal errands and All-day pass is a bit expensive for a museum! Haha

Earlier this year, I saw Mind Museum advertisement that looking for Volunteers for their travelling exhibit in Marquee Mall in Angeles City. Tagging along my Mga KaBio Friends who want to join me for this volunteer works. Since majority of them are finishing school works; grades, unit test etc, Jobelle and Paul are the only one who agreed.

We email our curriculum vitae in Mind Museum and a its a privilege to be part of the volunteers!

As much as I want to express how privileged I was in this whole journey, 2 of my co-volunteers wrote something about our volunteer works and they are must-read! They did a good job on the article they wrote that was published on the official blog of The Mind Museum and when I say they are must-read they are really MUST-READ! You deserve slow clap guys!

Sky Ranch Pampanga

Sky Ranch Pampanga

SM City Pampanga

The long wait is finally over!! One morning while on my way to SM Pampanga, I saw a giant tsubibo who lights up like a giant lantern at night. Yehey! May Sky Ranch na pla sa SM! May amusement park na sa Pampanga! A week ago is the soft opening of the Sky Ranch Pampanga. And the highlight of the park, is the Tallest Ferris Wheel in the country with a height of almost 200 feet above. You can also add the amazing view of Mt. Arayat and my so love land of Mexico and the City of San Fernando.

Kawai sa Sky Ranch Pampanga

How to get there:
The park is within SM Pampanga premises. Take Event Center Exit and you're there already. Buses from Manila doing stop over at the Mall itself or in San Fernando. If you were drop by at Intersection, San Fernando take a jeep going to SM Pampanga. Fare is P8.50

It is a project of SM Pampanga. A newest destination on north. Very convenient because of the shopping center such as SM Supermalls and Robinsons Starmills. You can also add the food as it located in the Culinary Capital.

The story goes like this, I, and my thesis-mates are going to meet one of our evaluator at Marquee Mall, Angeles City. He is an instructor of IT in City College of Angeles. Since this is a business related matters we have our evaluation at Extremely Xpreso and take some frappe, hot chocolate and a pita bread-tacos. Nahihiya ako mag picture kaya waley photos sa cafe.

After that, we received a call from Angelita asking if we can join them at Korean fast-food. They immediately call all BIO majors if they can catch up. Since others enjoying the holiday, Leslie is the only one respond to the call.

Syempre, Mababait kaming kaibigan kaya sinamahan nmn si Gelits sa Korean town kahit meron naman sa Angeles at kagagaling lang nmn last night.

Lets GO Samgyupsal All the way.

Discovering Sapang Balen

SAPANG BALEN

Pampang, Angeles City

July 5, 2014

Thesis nila! Our thesis is all about IM's and Software but still our software is on process sa aming programmer, we decided to help our classmates to their thesis in Sapang Balen

A comparative study chena bangi ang title nila. Yung isa study about animals yung iba sa plants. Dapat ganito din ang thesis namin so, to make the long story short, WALA kming idea sa Biodiversity simply, D nmn feel. Wahahaha. Atleast d kmi nag bio diversity para may tumutulong skanila.

Eto po ang sapa

 Yung thesis po nila yung mga plants diyan, Well, d ko tlga alam ang ginagawa nila pero nagbibilang sila ng damo2, Kumukuha din ng sample.

CLEAR WATER-Anong sabe ng Coron at Boracay

Unpolluted part ng Sapang Balen ang Initial Sample nila dun sa polluted, kaya na nila yun.

Yung mga sapang ganito, ngiging polluted lng dhil sa mga tao. Pero ang sayang tignan ng mga fish, mga dragonfly at ibat-iba pang mga creatures sa mga lugar na ganito. Biglang nwala ang pollution sa Angeles.

MIRACLE ART EXHIBIT

Miracle Art Exhibit:The Happy World Museum

The first in Pampanga and Central Luzon

June 6, 2014 when me and my cousins planned to see the movie Fault in our stars in Marquee Mall, Angeles City. We do not have any other plan to do but to watch movie and to do window shopping and food trip since the mall have many food stalls.

MOVIE + STARBUCKS = :))

We arrive at the mall around 2:00pm since we do not have a seats in 2:00pm showing, we decided to purchase the 4:35pm show for a better seats for P160.00

For our snacks, we decided to eat and drink at Starbucks coffee since its been a long time when I purchase a drink in cafeteria. I order a Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino for P180.00 and a budget friendly Choco-dipped doughnut for P55.00.

Since we still have an hour and a half before the movie, We accidentally saw the newest attraction in this mall which is first in Central Luzon, A Miracle Art Exhibit. I and my cousins immediately said: "Taraaaa:Let's Goooo, lets try". For P200.00, we have an unlimited access to the exhibit plus 2 free games at timezone(which we did not use, we are not fan of arcade) and a less 20% transferable tickets on the next visit.

Let's go Friends, Lets enter the magical optical illusions in the happy world museum. Enjoy
