MY TOP 3 BLACK LISTED

I apologize for the not so positive vibe for the title. I just had to let out the blasted emotions that were churning inside for such a long time.

1. Skin Food --> I was excited to go to SM Megamall because finally a physical store which is Korean Skin Care/ Make up. I was enthusiastic to try their products and was very curious if my skin would be compatible with their products. This incident happened November 2006. Unfortunately my trip there was absolutely awful. Perhaps the way I look was relatively ragged and literally look like a pauper. Well that doesn't justify the treatment I received form those sales ladies. I am a customer and have means to buy things. I expected to be treated well not like a creep/thief. I simply hate the dagger looks they gave me which was a great insult. I had to make it clear to their head manager if that customers should be approached with smiles not with smirks. No one should be treated that way based on how they look. You get my drift? Arrggh!!!!! They did apologize but that didn't change my impression about the entire staff for I can sense deep down I know they were all just acting to compensate for the damage done. I have never again set foot near any skin food store nor the kiosks inside the department stores since. I do have a few samples at home but those were given to me by my very accommodating online store owners who are a 100% the nicest.

2. MMDA Traffic Enforcer --> This incident occurred April 2010 Saturday. I was with my big sis together with the driver and my nice/nephew's nanny who will be going back to her province for a vacation. We decide to save gas as the trip to the bus terminal was relatively nearby to our workplace besides what could possibly go wrong,right? The trip was smooth sailing until an MMDA officer gave a signal for our vehicle to stop at the side. He claims that our driver made a violation there was a ""no U-Turn" sign. I look at it intently and it wasn't clear and for goodness sake! It was NOT visible/ HUGE enough to be noticeable for the person who is driving. It was just approximately the size of an imported/American size toilet paper. How can anybody see that from a distance, imagine only a size of a ten year old child?!? Only superman or an Extremely laser sharp eyesight can view from where it was placed and it was positioned too LOW. I had to argue with the guy at the top of voice to make a point. My entire body at that time was shaking violently that made the MMDA traffic enforcer startled & later on in shock mode. I told in a booming voice "You better pay for my hospital bills!! I want to know your full name right now!!!!!" His complexion turned white like a clear sheet of paper and that was the moment he decided to let us go without any ticket and no fuss of whatsoever. I couldn't concentrate at work that day. We had to go out for an early lunch break just to calm down my nerves. I was furious that even the waiter we frequent at the Korean restaurant was wary of me. Thank goodness the food was satisfactory which managed to relax my boiling blood inside of me.

Birthday Celebration of Nephews & Mini Haul

To minimize the expenses the parents of my nephews decided to celebrate together. Their favorite character are power rangers so that's the theme of the party.



The fiasco cake by Aristocrat bakeshop. Just read the next post about it. I find the execution was done sloppily. Something which I didn't expect from an established business. The off spring of the new generations is an absolute let down factor.

Fortunately the are other cakes which were more reasonably price, looks & taste a lot better too!


I apoligize for not posting the delicious dishes prepared by Albergus catering. I was rather busy munching as everything was really yummy!!!
