My nose is working crazy. Every time I go out, I get dizzy with the things I smell. Like in MRT, say my nose has already gotten used to the distinct MRT smell (mix of sweat, body odour and other things I do not want to know) and I could keep a poker face all these years. But that changed recently. I get dizzy with the smell. I’d rather smell ashton cigars (I don’t smoke and I don’t appreciate second hand smoke either) than be stuck in the MRT for 10-15 minutes and keep a straight face. I just can’t. So if I’m not in a hurry, I just take the bus.

Yesterday I was doing shopping in SM and I can’t stand the smell of meats. What’s up!

Yesterday, after my successful attempt at making homemade taho or soya beancurd or tau huay (which I still have to make a post about), it gave me much more courage and inspiration to try to make another experiment. It’s siopao asado or if I can, I want to try char siew pao. I brought home Hong Kong flour as I want my siopaos to be very white.

I never want to leave the comfort of our house to go out and conquer the sizzling heat of the summer sun but I had to buy my ingredients so I waited until late in the afternoon to go to SM. I haven’t been to SM in a while so it shocked me to see the long lines/queues at that day and time it’s like there’s a give away sale for Ipod Shuffle for Php1. I forgot it’s Holy Week and the store is gonna close by Wednesday. Oooh that’s why.

Also, the aisles are so packed, turns out they’re renovating. It’s about time as this mall is the oldest one in this area, so outdated. So after I got everything I needed I headed home but not before buying Shakey’s pizza. I wasn’t able to stop myself as I’ve been craving for pizza the past weeks. Not happy with it though, the crust is too thin. Next time, either I try their hand tossed crust or I’ll settle for Greenwich. I should satisfy this crazy pizza craving while I’m here as it’s cheaper here, it’s expensive somewhere else!
