Moonleaf goes to UST

I am definitely a tea fan maybe because of my Chinese origin but regardless, I can say that when I first tasted Moonleaf at Maginhawa, near UP Diliman, it instantly became one of my favorites together with Happy Lemon. And now that it has a branch near UST, almost every other day I am there to chill with my friends and to study a little as well. Though as of now it is hard to hang out there because its kind of hot inside but they said that they are going to fix the airconditioning. I HOPE THEY WOULD FINISH SOON! :D Moonleaf - UST actually has the same aura as the one in Maginahawa, with the white interiors and ascents of green but of course it is smaller. What's great about Moonleaf on top of its homey vibe, the famous shout out boards and being delicious is that its not that expensive compared with other milk tea place, which makes it very student-friendly.

If you haven't tried Moonleaf, you should! The UST branch is located at Tolentino St FROM UST P.NOVAL GATE, TURN LEFT THEN TURN RIGHT TO THE FIRST CORNER THEN WHEN YOU WALK STRAIGHT AHEAD, YOU WOULD SEE TOLENTINO ST. THEN GO RIGHT, YOU WOULDN'T MISS IT! IT'S ACROSS MONACO GYM. By the way, my favorite drink, which I always get, is Jasmine Milk Tea with additional pearls and 50% sugar = P70 only :)

My 1st Official Climb

I am a very adventurous guy. I like to discover and try new stuff, which I guess I got from my parents and my relatives because they are adventurous themselves. That is why when my friends --- Lian and Cherry --- invited me to join UST Mountaineering Club, I instantly said yes because I  believe that I have a fair share of experience when it comes to climbing THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT -____-" 

I never expected that I should train regularly just to climb and that I need to spend for a big heavy bag and other equipments for it but because I already committed to this new liking of mine, I got to do my part. And so I trained diligently, it was hard at first but I got the feel of running around UST. To cut the story short, I climbed my 1st official minor climb at Mt Talamitam at Nasugbu, Batangas with my 2 great friends and other mountaineering applicants. The whole experience was really tiring but I had the greatest time because of the people I am with and the fulfillment of reaching the peak after almost dragging myself up the mountain. 

The going down part was very tricky because the trail was very slippery and thus the falling and rolling scenario comes in for me but everything that happened was a great laugh for me and the person ahead and behind me. Can't wait for my next climbing experience with UST Mountaineering Club :)

PEG: RECYCLE.

Who says there can't be fashion with garbage? Well, you are definitely wrong! :) 

Special thanks to Conquer Outdoor Equipment!

Koolstix Original

Barquillos are thinly rolled wafer/cookie roll that has been a Filipino delicacy for ages, which was actually gotten by the Filipinos from the Spaniards. Ever since I was a child, I have been eating Barquillos and every time I had 1, 2 or a whole pack of it, I always end up holding it like I am smoking a cigar, which was actually fun to do up until now. Koolstix Original is here to offer another innovative way of eating the usual Barquillos we oh so love, by adding ice cream IN it!

Baquillos plus their yummy sorbetes is the perfect combination! You should definitely need to try Koolstix. They currently have 2 branches: Greenhills Shopping Center and at 2F UST Multi-deck Carpark.
