The Great Conspiracy Theory
The Arroyo government has been in power for almost 7 years. Come 2010, it will have reigned the country for 9 years. Despite the "Hello Garci" scandal and the ongoing NBN-ZTE scandal, it is still in power.
Three major players who could've toppled the president are gone. It is strange that their deaths occurred within only a span of one year. Who am I talking about?
1. Fernando Poe, Jr. - died December 14, 2004
2. Raul Roco - died August 5, 2005
3. Jaime Cardinal Sin - died June 21, 2005
Within one year... Coincidence or not?
Doctors say they died of natural causes. Is that really true?
It is my belief that our president has supernatural powers. She caused their deaths! FPJ could've called on the masses to oust Gloria. Raul Roco and Cardinal Sin (and also FPJ) could've joined forces and call on a revolt to make Gloria resign. Cardinal Sin helped make EDSA 1 and EDSA 2 happen. He could be capable of making another change... But then, FPJ, Roco, and Sin are dead. They could no longer help amass a crowd to revolt against the president.
Unbelievable but true, our president is actually an evil supernatural being.

Assignment: Katipunan Restaurants
Looking for a place to eat out is becoming challenging. Obvious choice for any dormer is to eat at any restaurant in Katipunan. Problem is, it seems my roommates and I have grown tired eating from the same place/s (e.g. Flaming Wings).
What I am trying to do now is enumerate all the food establishments that can be found in Katipunan. I will use this list as reference so that our decision time will be minimized ("so saan tayo kakain?" "Flaming Wi-" "huwag, kakakain ko lang diyan" "*gives more names of restaurants*" "ah! ayaw ko diyan" "so saan mo gusto?" "wait! isip ako..."). It takes time to think of places. It's better to immediately consult a list.
Only qualification for the list below is the food establishment can be reached by a dormer by riding a tricycle and/or simply by walking.
The list: (please feel free to add establishments)
- McDo
- Wok dis Way
- Shakey's
- Chiggy's
- Cantina
- Starbucks
- Jollibee
- Greenwich
- Red Ribbon
- Max
- Kenny Rogers
- Seattle's Best Coffee
- Cafe Sweet Inspirations
- Cello's
- Teriyaki Boy
- Flaming Wings
- World Topps
- Kitaro Sushi
- Hungry Hippo
- Pizza Hut
- The Old Spaghetti House
- Chicken Bacolod
- Pancake House
- KFC
- Kamirori
- lane consisting of food stalls like Bowl of Asia or Rapzi Tapzi Haus (sp?)
- Ken Afford
- Ilocos Empanada
- Pancit Malabon
- Reyes Barbecue
- Cafe Xocolat
- Inyo Restaurant
- Mongkok* (too far to walk :/)
- Box of Rice
- Cravings
*update 1
- Fruit Magic
- Yellow Cab
*update 2
- Chowking
- Chix and Treats
- Vegetable Junction place at Xavierville
- Le Couer
- Ate Ineng's Inasal
I cannot recall any more restaurants. I hope any reader out there will add more to this list. That's all!

Caf
New dorms are coming, with the cafeteria located in the new building. Will new setting = new caterer?
Which reminds me, it's been a long time since I ate food from Cervini Caf.
Could it be because of
- its mostly oily food (you think the sauce that meat swims in is just sauce? or oil? think again!)? [fun experiment to try: order a viand like "beef w/ *something*" and just eat the meat. Then leave the sauce to cool for 10 minutes or more. You'll be surprised with the oiliness of the sauce]
- its many viands that taste the same (e.g., beef with brocolli, beef with carrot, beef with potato, beef with *insert something*)?
- its cleanliness (I don't know if they have improved or not. But I remember in first year when an insect dove into the sauce, and when we pointed it to them, they replied, "paminta lang")?
- its price (I just think P45 onwards for a viand is not sulit, especially when the food is just ordinary, and when I know places like the LST and ISO caf serve cheaper food.)?
There are times that the caf serves nice meals. But it's not an everyday occurrence. Unfortunately.
I still have pizza left in the refrigerator. That will still last me a day. And prolong my decision on whether to eat dinner from the caf once my pizza is gone.
