Here's a recap of the past 6 months that has gone by so quickly. First of all I am glad that I am starting to post on my Blog again. Thanks to my friends who have been inspiring me and challenging me to write stuff.
January - June 2011:
Castle Street North Parramatta Apartment - January 2011
I recently moved to my new apartment in January and I must say it was a bit of a challenge. This is my first time living by myself and I had to learn a few things like eating alone and cooking for one person.
Although, I really enjoyed fixing my own space, my own office, painting the walls and buying furnitures etc.
Cat and Carlo's Wedding with the Sydney Crew - Palawan February 2011
It was my first time to go to Palawan and what a good time to go to attend the wedding of two of my closest friends. I've lived with Cat and Carlo for a couple of years and I was there since the beginning of their relationship.
It was also nice to be with my Sydney friends while in the Philippines. That isn't something that happens very often.
Dad and Mom - Alfonso, Cavite February 2011
It's always good to visit my parents. Although I get to communicate with them regularly in Skype and Yahoo Messenger it's different when I'm beside them, it's always better. Its nice to see that they are happy, contented and healthy.
I also took the chance to bring my Sydney friends to my home town and introduce them to my parents who I always tell them about. It is also good to let my parents know what company I have in Australia.
Kayaking and Camping at Kangaroo Valley - March 2011
Every year we go camping at least once. This year I got invited to join a camping trip in Kangaroo Valley somewhere south of Sydney. I must say this is one of the best camping trips I've been to because it also involved kayaking for 3 hours to get to the camp site. The place was very beautiful and very relaxing.
Aussie Munch Crunch Pizza - April 2011
The Annual Pizza Making Contest. This tradition started 3 years back and it happens on Carlos' Birthday in April. Its always a challenge, trash talking for next years event begins right after the awarding. This year I made the "Aussie Munch Crunch Pizza" with Vegemite, fried garlic and Chicharon.
I decided to make this pizza about an hour before the competition and surprisingly, it turned out good. Didn't win the award but I think I was able to show everyone I can make good pizza. The challenge is on for next year!
Seven Seeds Cafe - Melbourne May 2011
Melbourne visit. Our friends Angela and Rodolph moved to Melbourne late last year and we've been planning to visit them there. So, we've decided to fly over there and surprise Angela for her birthday.
Its nice to be in a different place from time to time and its good to know that I have friends to visit any time. Thanks for entertaining us while we were there, Ange and Rod! I will be visiting you guys again soon! PS: Ange, i'll post another photo with you in it, i just have to find one =)
