We always have a house dog. Gusto ko talaga mag-alaga and mag-train ng dog. I was given a chance nung nasa Pinas pa ko pero I had to leave. Now, as much we wanted to have a pet dog, its not allowed here in our apartment, only cats or any pet na di makakadisturb sa ibang tenants. Last weekend we went to this pet store and I saw a lot of stuffs for the dog... and in fairness, expensive ha. Meron pa

I tried cooking Chicken Ala King. This is what I missed in Greenwich. Everytime I visit Greenwich Pizza, hindi pizza ang inoorder ko, its their chicken ala king top with quickmelt cheese. Infairness, I like also their pizzas but im not really a pizza lover, unless a pizza from 3M or lotsa pizza. Yung tipong dumidikit tlga ung cheese sa ngalangala mo. hahhaa.
