Mama's Quarantine Birthday

Mama's Quarantine Birthday

Ohana! 

As I grow older, I find it harder to eat a lot. Charot! But yeah I tend to be more pickier with my food but it doesn’t really mean I eat less or anything. Just you know, I kind of eat food that I like and skip food that I don’t like as much. 


For my mom’s 52nd birthday, we went to a place called Yakimix. I have blogged about this place of course but now it's because it's my mother's birthday.

MEAT SELECTION

Their meat was just not it. I don't know. I feel like it's a hit or miss with this one. 


Their Japanese section was also not impressive. I don't know. I remember it being more acceptable in a sense. 


I enjoyed eating it though. I mean, it was not bad. Just not good. 


There's also a significant decrease in the number of variants they offer. Sad. 


LOL I remember my auntie asking me when I got the broccolis. Well, if you may ask, I got it from the beef bulgogi thingy.  This is my first plate and I actually got more or less the same food for my second,  third, and fourth. 

For someone who complained about a lot of things, I actually ate so much. Happy Birthday, mama!

FULLY VACCINATED

FULLY VACCINATED

 

In this post, I just want to share that your girl is now fully vaccinated. I don't know how it will be able to protect me or everyone around me but I hate hate hate how relaxed I feel in general. Like, pre-vaccination, I would wash my hands maybe every 15 minutes. I never touch anything at work without wearing gloves, and all that. After vaccination, I kinda lean towards my usual way pre-COVID. I still wash my hands though! Just not as often. I don't know. To be honest, I feel like I'd catch or maybe already caught the virus again at some point. But you know, KNOCK ON WOOD cause your girl will fly to Japan soon! Did you guys miss my Japan post? Is it just me? LOL. So yeah there's that. My second dose was sooo much better. No symptoms at all! Well, except for the pain on the injection site. I still took paracetamol like I did before so I don't know if I prevented the symptoms altogether or if there's no symptoms at all. I guess the first dose was so traumatic that I didn't want it to happen again. Can I just rant for one second?? So our second dose was supposed to be on 5/21/2021 and the staff at the clinic who chose to have Astrazeneca was divided into two groups. I was on the second group. The first group then went to the vaccination site only to be told that the second dose will be moved after two weeks. Like, you should have sent us a text. I kinda knew it would happen and I even told everyone. Because my sister who took the same shot received a text two weeks before her supposed to be scheduled dose. Anyway, even though I didn't have to go to the venue, I still felt bad for my co-workers who had to go because it was extra extra hot/sunny that day. Anyway, it's old news but I just wanted to share that. One thing I want to rant about is how they spelt AstraZeneca.


 I mean, It's AstraZeneca and not AZTRAZENECA for goodness sake. I mean, as a commoner, it’s quite easy to wonder how well our vaccination card will be recognized internationally though. It’s just not at that level yet. I mean, maybe just my card personally. I’ve seen some decent cards though so there’s that. Yun lang! Why didn’t they standardized the cards for everyone in the first place?
