Bonus points for the fact that they capped off the exhibit with this iconic line from "Bongga ka 'day."

Meals with Mark: Sharing secrets

FMM: Secrets
One of Madonna's more underrated songs is also one of my favourite ones.
It's a song from 1994, and it's a slow song but not exactly a ballad. It still has a catchy beat, but the melody itself is laid back and relaxing.
Yup, that song is no other than "Secret." Can't believe this song is more than 30 years old already!
It's no secret why this ditty is today's Friday Magic Madness song.

Sukiya Shocker
As a country that's known for their safety and adherence to the highest sanitary and health standards, this piece of news really comes as a shock.
Sukiya is one of Japan's most famous beef bowl restaurants. Mark and I would eat the their branch just above Higashi-Koenji station, and this brand brings back a lot of good memories of our meals there. So, I'm hoping that this issue is resolved and they won't have to make any drastic measures.
Hopefully, the next time Mark and I are in Japan, Sukiya will be back on its feet and we'll be able to dine in there again.

Let this be our prayer
Nope, this isn't a post about that super popular song - "The Prayer."
But it's still about a prayer.
When we were kids, I'd often read the classified ads and look for the printed prayers.
Seeing this reminded me of those times.
Nowadays, classified pages are a rarity, so venues for printing prayers like this are rare as well.
Hope they bring it back.

The graduate
What?!
It's been 11 years since Migs graduated from high school?
This feels just like yesterday.
Cue in "I'm getting old" feels.

Takis (not) cheap
So, it's true that they're finally carrying this Mexican classic in Robinsons Supermarket.
Got to check it out, and was surprised at the price. A big bag is around P450! Gosh, this just cost around $1 (both in Mexico and the US), so this price is a bit surprising.
Much as I'm into Takis, I'm not sure if I'll bite.
