Five

"Time flies when you're havin fun"

In a flash, we're already celebrating our 5th month of being together... It's been a great and fun ride... and i'm at the edge of my seat, craving for more..! =)

We both took a leave from work and had some business taken care of this morning. We were thinking of going to the mall to watch a movie or something but just before lunch time, we thought of driving all the way to Tagaytay. It was one of those spur-of the-moment decision which made the trip more exciting and fun!

Our first stop in Tagaytay was People's Park. The last time we've been here was two years ago. We were kinda optimistic that the park had changed already but we got disappointed. The place was just as what i remembered it... dirty, unkempt, and just plain ugly. :( But there was one redeeming factor... the view at Peple's Park was magnificent!!! The view there made up for the P20 entrance fee which at first, i thought we were being robbed of... =)

After our (quick) stay at the People's Park, we drove off to find some place to eat. We wanted something out of the usual (Leslie's, Josephine's are out) and cheap (goodbye Sonia's and Antonio's). When we passed by the famous Mushroomburger, our search was over. Jon hasn't eaten here yet and i remember this was a favorite when i was still in high school so, we quickly made a u-turn and ordered our food. There were lots of new items on their menu, but we settled for the mushroom burger royale and longganisa meal with the adobo egg (back then, it was still century egg)...

After the yummy lunch, we proceeded to the newly-built Magallanes Square and went to an ukay-ukay shop... There were rows and rows of clothes to choose from but because the place was so humid, i didn't have the patience to browse everything and decided to go somewhere else. That "somewhere else", of course, was another ukay-ukay shop at the rotonda. I only got a simple top here. There were still lots of clothes to check out but i saw Jon getting bored so i dragged myself out of the building already. =)

Next, we had some coffee and a salad at Starbucks. We stayed there for more than an hour just talking and enjoying the view.

Before we knew it, it was time to head back home. But Jon promised to buy me my favorite fruit, so we stopped by a fruit stand on the street, and bought a kilo of mangosteen. We ate some of it on our way home and just as i predicted, Jon loved it too! Yum! =)

The long drive was just as fun, singing along (more like having a concert inside the car! haha!) with our CD (Corrs and Cranberries songs combined) 'til we got back home.

It was a great, albeit simple, 5th month celeb and i can't wait for more months and years of wedded bliss! =)
