First work week of 2014! As compared to the previous months, my enthusiasm for work was better. I'm happy to report that I'm beating my deadlines. Almost all of my tasks are getting accomplished, quite a surprise for me because I was expecting to start things slow. I think my longest phone conversation with my friend W helped a lot. My struggles are still there but W made me appreciate my work better.

While I'm doing well with work, my foodie intakes seem to be positively correlated. The food cravings and intakes are intolerable. Grilled pork, cakes, fried dishes, I'm suddenly dreaming of them in the middle of the work day. If this is the trade off of becoming a good employee, then I'm afraid I have to be awarded with higher medical allowance and real gym membership. ;)  Here are my weird and few food indulgences last week.


Jollibee's Chicken Joy - Who doesn't love Jollibee's Chicken Joy? I have loved their fried chicken for as long as I can remember. I cannot count how many times I rewarded myself with the juiciest chicken and classic gravy.

J.Co's doughnuts - I mentioned in a previous post that I'm not a huge fan of this most sought after doughnuts. Still holds true because I only prefer a few of their flavors, alcapone, oreo, this almond sprinkled green tea and strawberry sprinkled with chocolate caviar. I have to laugh with the name, chocolate caviar ;)

Sincerity Chicken - I have to force my friend to accompany me to Lucky Chinatown Mall for another fried chicken craving.


Guess where? Hi there Mr. Postman!

I have to drop by one of my favorite places on earth for some personal and work related errands. The architecture of the Philippine Postal Corporation will forever be one of my favorites.

The pavement leading to the main building also reminds me of Central Park NY.  Haven't  been in NY but blame all the sappy romantic films I've watched :) 

The best way to end the first work week is to indulge myself with food and a great movie.


Banoffee Pie from Starbucks - I had a lot of this during the holiday break. Blame all the Starbucks GCs I received as gifts last Xmas. Hahaha I used to love Red Ribbon's version, which for no reason at all, was removed from their menu.

Love Rosie in the big screen - Oh finally! I have mixed feelings about the movie. I don't want to provide spoilers but what I love best, the filming locations were perfect.

Reyes Barbecue - I rekindled my love for their java rice, grilled pork and peanut sauce. I don't know why I always confine myself to Mcdonald's given that Reyes Barbecue is another unhealthy and delicious alternative :)
