i'm so homesick!

staying local, with family and friends. oh how i miss home..

comfortable, convenient, and love - of course. *sigh*

picture overload this time!

if you notice you're going to the same restaurant, ordering the same thing every single time you go there.. might as well diy!
voila - mango shrimp! thanks to grandma's lovely cooking. she always makes improv taste good =).
so before, i honestly wasn't much into these.. then after going to annie's bday awhile back and tasting her homemade oyster dip; MAN that was good. =) now i don't pass these up!hah, grandma's like, "Cheryl's getting older.. she likes oysters now" hahaha.. i guess? does the consumption of oysters determine maturity? another hypothesis i must attempt to prove. hahaha.

rachel's "if i ruled the world" face"it's okay to dream"

herra random night. bf nia came by and we just drove like there was no tomorrow. surprised visited kessy at her work - which was closed when we got there -__-. hungry - jack's. dj calls - met up with The Guys at Dj's. simon remembers nia, hahaha. seriously tho, its been like 5 years wtf.

kessy calls - and we take the looooongest detour to her; getting lost on 92 and stopping by industrial off baumberg to chill by the sprinklers. ahhhhh i miss nia! ^_^. finally we get to kessy's thing in hayward. the people were gone, but the party wasn't over. lol. totally filipino-ing it, we karaoke'd and that's when i heard a rooster. yeah. a rooster.

"do you... have a loud alarm clock in the garage, or is that a rooster??"

"yeah, they have a rooster! wanna see?"
