The Philipines and I

I processed the renewal of my non-professional drivers license, last December 20, 2017 and I was told that the card type license will be available between Febuary 2018. At the first week of Febuary 2018, I visited the new LTO office in JCentre Mall in Bakilid Mandaue City, however, it isn't available yet but they gave me a mobile number where I can make another follow up using SMS. And just last week, I texted the number and immediately got a response saying that I have to proceed to their office again and make anothe appoinment date for the release. The steps are as follows: 1st Step: There is actually no priority number. Upon entering the office, you will instantly see a queue near the entrance.

 Looking for a place for coffee on your day off? There are already alot of shops that are sprouting here and there. Check out these shops that is just a stone throw away from each other.  1 . Oxford coffee - located at the heart of Talamban, Cebu City. What I like here is that it isn't too crowded. They offer several variety of drinks, from teas; iced or hot teas (others are imported from UK) to non-coffee and good tasting coffee. Milk teas are also available. They even serve affordable pastas ranging from 140php and drinks from 80php- 150php. My favorite from the menu is the Spicy sausage pasta which you can either have it on white or red sauce and paired with refreshing cucumber cooler iced tea but today I had cafe Latte. Baby Beef ribs and spicy chicken wings are newly added from the menu. To top it all, "one to sawa" with their non-interrupted wifi connection. They are open from 0800H to 2300H. Hurot na! :) From Talamban, let's go to Banilad in Ma...
