Jupiter through our lens

We were just so excited to use our new Neximage at our frontyard, so here it goes!

Io's shadow transits Jupiter

This was taken from our Celestron 4SE.

Stay tuned for Saturn in a few months!



What we bought for astronomy!

NEXIMAGE

Solar System Imager

Now I can post lots of pictures of planets! hurrah!

Next are the eyepieces and a barlow,  

3x Barlow

We bought these from the US online from Hayneedle and Optcorp and had them delivered by Pobox.ph and then LBC. AWESOME!

First work ever!

I know everyone of us had this experience during our first week of work.

WHAT TO DO WHAT TO DO!?
OMG, THIS IS SO CONFUSING!
I DON'T GET IT???
WHAT'S NEXT?
I FLUNKED AGAIN..AND AGAIN?!?!?
I WANNA GIVE UP.

And asking repeatedly..

The phrases mentioned above is what I feel right now but then that's life., It may be so difficult at first whether your boss or officemate is annoyed at you, still, push through and practice the task given to you. Find things that will make you happy at work.

A dream come true

I honestly cried over this picture. The kid has been struggling at six with cancer (lung and abdomen tumor), as she met and hugged the real princess in her life. The experience of a child that made her dream come true was such a wonderful feeling.

Expecting more at Italianni's :(

It was my turn to treat my hubby at Mall Of Asia, so we decided to try this fine dining restaurant.

Shrimp and mushroom linguine

595Php / $13.84

Err..I forgot the exact name but it's potato fries anyway

175Php / $4.07

Classico. Their specialty.

607Php / $14.12

We love their potato fries, their dip oh-so must try.. So we expect the main course to be magnifico as well.

However, it was not.

The pasta we ordered was bland, maybe let's just say an average. So-so pasta. Yet heavy to our tummy.

Their classico pizza. A thin crust, yeah their crust? Oh, not good for me. They served the pizza not that hot and its crust was like a plywood? I better pick Napoli over their pizza.

So I really expect more from Italianni's

The bottomline is. My first treat to my hubby was unsatisfying. *tear*
