Vacation Activity #2: Series Marathon

If you're on vacation, and by vacation I mean you're just gonna be stuck at home for the next two weeks or so, it's normal for a person to indulge themselves in becoming a temporary couch potato.

And that is what I'll be doing for the next few days or so.

I'll be doing a marathon of series I wanna watch again because I have those certain shows I'll never get tired of. You know what I mean.

First up, Pushing Daisies, starring Lee Pace as Ned the Pie Maker. I've been itching to watch the series again after watching Lee Pace's performance as the Elvenking Thranduil in The Desolation of Smaug (which is an amazing second movie and I really cannot wait for the third installment).

After Pushing Daisies, I'll be watching the first and second seasons of Skins UK. I don't know. I just find the first generation of Skins to be the best, seeing as how they started it all - the drama, the laughs, the whole CassiexSid thing, and the passing of Chris after season two. One of the best series I've watched in my twenty years of existence.

Such lovely, lovely stickers!

Although they're Php50 ($1.12) per pack of three to four random stickers, I couldn't help myself! They are just so cute and I was told that the owner of the shop made the designs himself/herself. I ended up buying three packs and I might come back to the store to buy more designs.

And I'll be sure to come back to buy one of their adorable bags too.

Cubao X Adventure. Finally!

Eliza, Nico, Chris, and I went to Cubao X yesterday. Considered to be a very hipster place, I would very much like to agree. It's like a tiny shopping strip with cafes, bars, restaurants, clothes, vinyls, and vintage antique collectibles.

We ended up hanging out in The Appraisery, a cafe made for geeks and the geek-at-heart. Aside from their really good frappes and paninis, and the interesting decor, it's also a place for people to play Dungeons & Dragons, card games like Magic: The Gathering, and board games. Oh! And they also have extremely cool books for customers to read. They even have the new Neil Gaiman book, Fortunately, The Milk, illustrated by the talented Skottie Young.

We spent the whole day playing board games, we didn't get the chance to walk around and check out the vintage shops while they were still open. I was hoping to buy something in this one store, but they closed up early. Oh well. There's always next time. And hey, The Appraisery will probably be our new hang out place tee hee.

A day of fun, laughs, and saving the world. I can't wait for our next adventure.
