After almost a month of looking for a good place to eat here, I finally found Nha Trang’s Best Food Place to eat at “Pizza Giang” runned by group of young Vietnamese, they serve reasonably priced food.  Offering mostly Western food on their menu, they are definitely great deals for affordable prices catering locals and tourists.

Pizza Giang is Nha Trang’s Best Food Place I can say, for a burger at 17,000 VND ($ 1 USD) is enough to make you bloating full!… Their Garlic Bread with Mozzarella Cheese is 8,000 VND which almost half a dollar US, and Pizzas at 60,000 VND ($ 3.50 USD)big size and half the price for small size.  They’ve got more than 30 choices of pizzas from Italian to Classic flavors, whichever will leave you satisfied and return.  Small sizes are more tastier though.  Fresh Garden Salads are 8,000 VND ($ .50 USD), really healthy… Drinks are from 5,000 VND up, they serve cocktails too (limited).

All in all, Nha Trang’s Best Food Place!!! The young entrepreneurs are nice and friendly as well…makes you feel comfy and at home.

I’ve got many interests to write about can’t even think what to focus on, whether travels, food, fashion, music, and stuff… Then I realize I wanted to write randomly and just pick one along the way. Now, I’ve chose to write about fashion more than anything, although, I would still be writing random topics.

This is a great achievement for me, knowing I am new at REAL BLOGGING WORLD, and not just blogging using Free Network Blogs out there. I want to acknowledge Timon Weller of Buyers-Web.com for helping me build this blog. Wahooooooooooooooooo! Finally, I got my Page Rank!!!

Growing up with this Reputable Catholic School, I have heard different cries and arguments both from students and school administration regarding School Uniforms.  Now I want to share the Pros and Cons of School Uniform for both parties involved not to mention, the parents.

The Pros and Cons of School Uniform

• The Pros and Cons of School Uniform: SAFETY- Most of the school designed their uniforms for safety purposes of the students. How? Students in uniform are carrying its identification with the school, much that the security officers can recognize their students even at a distance.

• The Pros and Cons of School Uniform: COST EFFICIENT- Schools using uniforms are budget friendly for parents, as well as to those self-supporting students.  Instead of buying more than 5pairs of outfit (most of the time, MORE!), by having school uniforms required in school, you can at least, if you’re in a real budget, just get 2-3 pairs to wash it alternately.

• The Pros and Cons of School Uniform: CREATIVITY- As students are more concern on how they look like, or the ‘fashion’…and as the school requires that you should all look the same, the individuality and creativeness will surface.  Some will make it fitter, or looser, longer or shorter…depending to their own style, and still in accordance with the school uniform policies.

On my opinion, I’d rather go to a school that require uniform because of the security.  That’s the main reason why they use uniforms anyway, identification.  Also, it will saves you a lot for buying fashionable clothing, and you can save your best clothes for best occasions and parties, making it more appealing when you wear it, rather than wearing fashion clothes that you wear in school most of the time, its colors and designs were already ruined and faded.

More time to take care of your clothes, besides, school is a place for learning not showing off designer clothing and expensive accessories, but anyways fashion is everywhere…  Its the values and character that is more fashionable in school.

As a girl, I can give some tips on how to tell if she likes you? But girls are each of their own, everyone are! Depends with what type of girl are you after… Let me tell you what? Super flirty girls are very open when they like someone, I need not to tell you about that, you can tell yourself when they do.

Yet, timid and shy girls, as well as those intimidating girls out there…THEY, they are most likely you want to know how to tell if they like you? Start it up!

Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You?

1. Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You? The Look - She look back or glimpse back when she noticed that you’re looking at her more than once. She might just be checking out if she knows you the first time she saw you looking or maybe, staring at her…or making sure if you are really checking her out.

2. Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You? The Smile - She smiled back when you smiled at her. Normally, these girls doesn’t smile first, either they are too shy or too afraid to be let down. Although, intimidating girls most of the time doesn’t smile back, but they’ll sneakingly keep checking you out .

3. Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You? Attention - She always gonna do something to get your attention surreptitiously. You wouldn’t even think they are doing it to get your attention but they have a lot of tricks to do that, most common is going to the comfort room if you’re on the way to get there, sit to a place where she can easily check you out and otherwise, and a lot more professional tricks…lol.

4. Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You? Avoidance - When you tried to approach her, she’s attentive and smiley. Most girls are attentive and smiley when the guy they like approached them, but, the snobbies are different…they’re always too proud, they might have thousands of excuses to make it up not to make them look bad, but that’s how they get their charms working, making you want to chase the prize.

5. Tips on How to Tell if She Likes You? Body Language - Fidgetting, touching their hair, and similar are the most obvious way to tell that she likes you. You see, your body can’t hide anything so whether if they have mastered the body language…it will still come out (ex. blushing, goosebumps, and stuff they can’t hide)

Talking about fashion, what first comes to your mind when you hear FASHION? Okay, clothes, wardrobe, shoes, accessories, of whom? WOMEN. Yeah, me too! Not because I am woman, but because all I know is that women are VAINer than men. But interesting fact: MEN’s FASHION is searched MORE than anything about particular fashion. So, is Men’s Fashion More Popular Than Women’s?

What’s that mean? That means, there are more people out there that are interested in fashion, okay, I know it might not just be men searching, but she may be searching for a friend that she knows really care about he looks, his outfit. Or maybe a stylist researching for her client, who’s of course, male. It doesn’t matter if he’s straight or not. The argument is still: Is Men’s Fashion More Popular Than Women’s?

That’s a good thing anyway, because that means they are now concern of how they look, improving personality, and that’s one little step for improving the world… What’s my answer to the question, Is Men’s Fashion More Popular Than Women? YES. Doesn’t mean that women are now the underdog to this category. It’s just that women doesn’t just search Women’s Fashion. They look further more detailed. From head to toe, they uses millions of stuff just to be in fashion. Get it?

LETTER TO MY BROTHER

As the year ends,
I am 1000 miles away from you;
I heard the news that made our tears shed,
Yet I said, tomorrow’s start of something new.

You might not know how important you are,
Hearing negative murmurs from people that sucks…
Have hurt you and made you forgot, here we are…
Waiting, willing to listen,catch you if you fall.

Light is at reach, look inside you,
You got the strength you never thought you have,
Despite the strong words they threw you,
Remember the people behind your back.

They’ll stand behind you no matter what,
Loves you unconditionally whatever happens,
And you should never forget that.
You are a good man, brother… You Are.

Don’t make their words affect you,
You’re worth more than they thought,
And you know it, you just got to believe it.

You got hurt because you gave importance to them,
More than you did to yourself,
But you were wrong, and you now know it…
Prove them wrong, let your stars shine this time…

Rise from the pains it caused you,
Don’t just falter and give up,
Carry yourself up, and live your life…
You got everything they don’t have.

Have you realize why they are doing this to you?
Because you have everything they always wanted to.
You got it all that they have to worked hard before getting it,
Yet after all, they can’t still have it.

They want to see you fall and make you miserable,
And if they succeed, they will feel better than you.
Don’t let them succeed, brother. Don’t let them do.
Fight. Get-up. Win the battle you didn’t wish to start.
Finish what they’ve started with victory and triumph.

Pinays Prep Look for New Year’s Eve 2008!!!

Let me write something about Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi again, despite the unpleasant experience I had in Hanoi(burnt my leg from motorbikes, unbelievable traffic there!) I still found good things about the place.  Hanoi’s popular attraction is the Hoan Kiem Lake located in the heart of the town. According to Wikipedia: Hồ Hoàn Kiếm, meaning “Lake of the Returned Sword” or “Lake of the Restored Sword”, also known as Hồ Gươm - Sword Lake…that’s where the name came from.

The Tortoise Tower in the middle of the lake has its own myth.  Locals believe that there’s a number of giant tortoise living in the lake for years now, although its species endangered they said it appears once in a while and make themselves visible for a very little while. Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi is the popular not only for tourists but for locals chilling out from a day’s work or school.

Jade Island is located near the shore of the lake, it was built in honor of a Vietnamese 13th century military leader, Tran Hung Dao.  It is connected by the wooden bridge painted in red from the shore, it is open to public view by the way.

Reminiscing, contemplating on life how terrible things happened to me in the past…I remember one sad night that I never wanna live, pleading God to take me, as I’ve pleaded hundred of times to stop terrible things that keeps hurting me to come.  It didn’t happen.  I asked so many questions, still unanswered.  I asked myself that night knowing everything will come to an end, “when everything is over, will I want to die still?”…it was unbearable that during those dark times, TIME doesn’t seem to move.

Time during those moments felt like you’re trapped in a quicksand, yet you found a way to get out, it feels like impossible to get out, it keeps pulling you down, draining your emotions, making you feel every single emotions you can feel.  I kept contemplating on life I have, I asked an elder friend who was stand like my second father, Ronnie Cantos… ‘Why it doesn’t stop? Why tragedy after another?‘, and he replied, ‘it’s coming to an end soon, because its pouring’…it made me cry, from that simple answer, it overwhelmed me…and a slight hope came out of me, wanting to be out of all those.

Now, I am here…looking back at that night when I asked myself if I still wanna die when I get out of that situation?  My answer now is, NO.  My life has been a real life roller coaster, a story from a movie that you thought is just a fiction but it happened to me. It happens in reality…and teach you to see a lot of things you’ve never seen. Contemplating on life I have at the moment, I know now the answers to my questions if not all.  It lies within us, we just have to learn accept it, and we will be free.
