I find it disturbing that parents would shove their 10 year old kid inside their oven and try to *gasp* roast her alive.

But you have to watch it to understand why they would subject themselves to being condemned by a social worker like Renee who was very much repulsed by such un-parently behavior; you’d have to understand why you want to kick yourself in the arse for watching something predictable yet still is glued to the tv screen.

Happy February! Sorry for the late post. Been to Cagayan de Oro again last weekend for my friend’s wedding. Will be posting that soon. Meanwhile, I just have to post my preemptive Sinulog blog.

Have anyone been ready for last month’s Sinulog festivities? Not that it requires TOO much effort to do that but when last year I attempted on  what are the essentials and the must-haves you must tote around with you come the Sinulog 2010 Mardi Gras/Street Parties, I was not really doing so much this year.

1. Stampede-ready shoes. It is highly unlikely that a stampede happens during Sinulog street parties but a stampeded usually means a scream fest because a Kapamilya celebrity is waving at them from their floats.
2. Sunblock. Carry one not wear it!
3. Water. Water. Water.
4. Street-Party light. This means that the lighter, the better. If you feel the need to carry essentials such as extra t-shirts, alcohol, cotton swabs, leave them in the car. Sling or messenger bags help keep you from worrying where you last placed your stuff.
5. Camera! Even if you didn’t sign up for the Sinulog Photo Contest and paid P650 for the PRESS ID, you can still get very beautiful stills even at the sidelines and viewing decks.
6. Lipgloss. Instant retouch, anyone?
7. Scholl for a bunion-free life!

Day 1, Friday

Dinner at The Walk with the boyfie before he does to work.

This is my bad ass look. Trying too hard.

Boyfie pissed at being late. Teehee. Headed straight to Cebu International Convention Center (CICC) to watch Tom Woodfin’s fight.

When my friends told me I’m the customer from hell, they meant that waiters and busboys would run away at the sight of me. I thought they were just exaggerating. Because I hate crappy service, I can’t help but rant at the poor things. Just like my other love Warren used to say, “You get what you pay!” It is pretty expensive to be dining in fancy places all day so once or twice you’d end up dining in Cebu in fastfood chains like KFC and small restaurants like KUL Kitchen.

When the boyfriend and I had our usual “Us Sunday” two weekends ago, where Sundays are only spent alone and cellphones are ignored just in case family and friends text/call (sorry Mom!), we watched Sherlock Holmes at Ayala before heading out to dinner. Instead of our favorite ribs at Casa Verde, we headed to this new place at the Ayala  Terraces Cebu, Tsim Sha Tsui and spelled just like the streets in Yau Tsim Mong district in Kowloon, Hongkong.

 I remember getting lost at Tsim Sha Tsui in Hongkong before because I had a hard time pronouncing the place but the Tsim Sha Tsui waitress at the Terraces Cebu was enough quick to help us say, “Jim Sa Joy”. Make it sound like your a local and hope for the best.

Boasting of its fuchsia and green bursts of color which Cebu fashion designer Phillip Rodriguez designed, the dimsum and tea bar has its own all-you-can-eat dimsum buffet at their conveyor belt.

When my friend Andrea made me take photos of their hot product (I mean that literally), I couldn’t resist telling you all about this!

SHIGA (please read the rest of the text below) is made out of chili garlic sauce. It is naturally for chili lovers out there. I tried a pinch – get this – a pinch and my entire esophagus burned for an entire week. Exag, I know. But you get me.

Email me at kristine@theglamarazzi.com if you have any questions. This retails at P150 but perhaps I could be wrong.

Perhaps I will write the quintessential new year’s resolutions list but for now, let me show photos of our latest holiday trip in where else but Cagayan de Oro! Hahaha. I need to be somewhere else besides Cagayan de Oro this year. Tsk tsk. Now that could be one new year thing.
