Tutti Frutti G4

Finally got to taste the yummy-ness of Tutti Frutti! We went to the Glorietta 4 branch of Tutti Frutti last Friday before heading to the movies in Greenbelt. Luckily they had a G4 branch! I was really excited to try it, and it did not disappoint me at all. I got the Chocolate Peanut Butter flavored yogurt because that was what they said was good.  I think Megamall has a bigger branch, and probably more flavors? And boy, it doesn't taste anything like yogurt! As if it's just simple ice cream!

What I like about eating out is the feeling you get when you’re actually at the restaurant than when you just have the food delivered at your doorstep. Especially if it’s your first time there; you get the whole feel of it, the whole experience. Unfortunately my mom doesn’t share the same views as I have, so we don’t really get to eat out a lot.

Ironically though, I’ve slowly been becoming fond of eating out and trying new restaurants that according to my friends are okay, especially now that I can afford those scrumptious meals with my own money. I haven’t gone far out though yet; I haven’t treated myself to a Friday’s meal (with my own money), or to Fish & Co., Racks, Don Henrico’s, Italianni’s, and the like. (You know what I mean.) I’m starting with the more affordable ones first; Pancake House, Teriyaki Boy, Icebergs desserts, The Old Spaghetti House, Carlo’s Pizza, etc., which before I’ve only wished for of eating at during special occasions.

Above all these, there are those restaurants though that I’ve always wanted to try. Either I’ve always seen them, they look interesting, the food really looks yummy, or reviews from other people are really good. Let me enumerate (in no particular order) some of the places that I have been wanting to visit for some time now.

We, my mom, my brother and I, were talking over at lunch today about some of our unforgettable experiences over the previous years. I can’t really remember how it started, until my brother and I was left at the dining table and started talking about the time when my mom was hospitalized during 2003.

For the Tigers at least...

UST ended their UAAP Season 73 Men’s Basketball campaign placing 7th overall in the standings. Considering the team’s fourth place finish in Season 72 with a 6-8 record, and fifth place finish in Season 71 with the same win-loss record, this is a whole different story. But then, we also have to consider the fact that they had veterans Dylan Ababou and Khasim Mirza back then, who have now both graduated and have suited up for the Smart Gilas RP Team and the PBA, respectively.

So what was left of Coach Pido’s team? Third years and sophomores, a number of rookies plus new recruits, as well as relegates from team B. A young team indeed which made pre-season critics put them at the bottom of the food chain, predicting that they were to finish dead last in the tournament. There was no definite veteran left in the team as all eyes were set on Jeric Teng, UAAP Season 72 ROY, to help lead the Tigers together with third years Clark Bautista, Jeric Fortuna, Chris Camus, Melo Afuang, and fellow sophomore Aljon Mariano.

For the first time ever since he became head coach, Glenn Capacio was not with the Tamaraws during the whole second half on one of their most important games ever.
For the second time since 2008, the Blue Eagles swept their opponents in the best-of-three Finals series, Lasalle being the first victim in Season 71.
For the third time in a row, the Ateneo Blue Eagles together with the great coach Norman Black were hailed champions in the UAAP Men’s Basketball action.

In a game where everyone expected both teams to go all out, one overshadowed the other. Ateneo came out armed, prepared, and ready to defend the title. FEU might have either been caught off guard, or probably succumbed to the pressure they were not used to.

Ateneo was not going to let FEU beat them for three straight games. During the first and second round eliminations, FEU was able to beat Ateneo in two pulsating games which could have gone either way. This time, the Eagles made sure it would be theirs.

I’m just very happy that they took time to recognize my support for the UST Growling Tigers and my blog. Though still, my dreams, hopes of a lot of comments in my posts still weren’t achieved, at least my blog got some exposure. As well as the author, haha! My friends were very happy for me, as much as I was very surprised when I saw the article. Yahoo! College Hoops for the win!
