A couple of weeks after we got back from Viet Nam, SC and I were craving for some good old pho. We were in Power Plant when this craving kicked in and the timing couldn’t be more perfect as there’s a Pho 24 sitting at the concourse level. We checked the place out and the over-all ambiance was totally different. The lighting was bad (too dark) and the price was just off (100% more)! Since we’re starving and already there, we thought, what the heck, let’s just order!

I’m (really) bad at keeping secrets. I really wanted to wait for our (my cousin R’s also enrolled here! YAY!) jackets but arghhh! I cannot wait to spill the beans!

The facade of my new school

I just had my orientation last Saturday morning and I’ve already made a friend! heeeheee Classes start about a month and a half from now. Gah. I CANNOT WAIT!

Once upon a time, I didn’t really mind consuming this much calories in one sitting

In fact, I even worked with a pint every night I was in Singapore

Ice cream’s one of the few snacks I can truthfully say I can eat my entire life. Growing up, it’s actually my parents’ favorite bribe because I’ll do everything for the cool treat (or in this case, reward). It’s also one of those snacks that truly comfort me. I cried the entire night last Sunday after learning that my grandfather passed away and running to Amici (Don Bosco) first thing in the following day for a scoop of sans rival gelato (followed by a scoop of blueberry) honestly felt like a bigggg hug. *sigh*

Two days after the whole “running to Amici” ish, I found myself in Mall Of Asia eating my favorite comfort food…

ice cream heeeheee
