Mountain-ing On A Weekday

     Smell the mountain air!!! I ran to the mountains twice this week. Somehow I have missed it and I needed a change of scenery. It's not that far off but it gave my thighs one hell of a push!



     Last Wednesday I got out of bed so groggy that the caffeine in my daily cup had not kicked in until late in the morning. I thought to myself, I'm so freaking exhausted I don't think I can go for a long run today. But after realizing that it's going to be December next week and Cebu Marathon is just less than two months away, I had no option but to simply work my butt off.

     12.87 kilometers after, I actually didn't regret going up and beating myself up! I savored the refreshing view of the sunset and it was a perfect way to end a long draining day!

PNA Membership Renewal (PNA Cebu)

Image
UPDATED January 30 2017 CPD is now a requirement for License renewal. For more info, click  here . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   The nurse in me will forever stay. With that comes the necessity of renewing licenses and ID's. It's a must..whether you like to or not. In my case, I'm slowly going back to my profession and this' one step further to becoming a "nurse."     So last week I was hard at getting requirements here and there. One of which was my PNA license. It's been two years since I had my PNA membership renewed! To anyone who needs an idea of what needs to be done, I hope this would be of some help. :)      PNA Cebu is located at Capitol Site, just near Dynasty Inn. Here's a map: I went around in circles before I finally got to their office, turned out they were located at the street behind STK. Or you can ask STK where their parking lot is...

From A Coffee Drinker's Point of View: Kratos Coffee

Image
     Coffee is an essential part of my daily life. In other words, I absolutely cannot do without coffee. We have all experienced days wherein even our coffee---needs coffee. Especially on Mondays when everything feels like a drag!      Let's talk about instant coffee. Don't get me wrong...instant coffee is good when you need a temporary mood lifter. The problem here is that when your caffeine tolerance reaches a certain high, you simply cannot settle for less because, in my case, I have noticed that whenever I do, I get headaches, I get sluggish and it's like I have a huge boulder over my shoulders. To cut it short, I'm already dependent of coffee. On a scale of 1 -10, I'd probably say that I'm on an 8. I like my coffee black but I haven't reached the point wherein espressos and free flow coffee have become a thing.      So during my lunch break last week, I stopped by Family Mart and saw Kratos . The cans somehow reminded me of Mon...

Crate Cafe: Not Your Typical Coffee Place

Image
Hello I'm back! It's been forever, right? I'm still working on the Hanoi post (for five months??lol)  ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ  and while I'm on that, I just want to share this lovely new cafe that made rounds online a early this year. Only about two weeks ago did we decide to try it out! In the outskirts of Cebu City lies this humble cafe. Crate Cafe. As you know, a lot of cute artsy coffee shops have been sprouting here and there. I've noticed they more or less have similar themes. Big teddy bears, double deck beds, pink and baby blue walls and the like. Personally, I don't want that kind of atmosphere. I prefer one that's like breath of fresh air, new and interesting! So, thank God for this! It's not that far from Lahug. It'll probably take you around 10 minutes to get to this place. It might be a little bit of a struggle if you don't have your own means of transpo. But cabs and motorcycles can get you here minus the stress. No worries! ...
