I am a graduating student with a mission... to eat in each and every kainan/ cafeteria within the U.P. Campus, at least once.
In all my years in U.P., the only places I've eaten lunch in are:
-- the Music canteen
-- the Mass Comm. canteen
-- the Bahay ng Alumni restaurants (only during very special occasions, mind you!)
-- the Alumni Association Cafeteria
-- the College of Engingeering canteen
-- the Tea Room, College of Home Economics
-- Katag
-- CASAA
Can you say pathetic and boring?
I started on my quest yesterday... I tasted veggie meat at Latasia Fusion (my first time!!), the vegetarian resto behind Romulo Hall. And today I had my first sit down lunch at the Beach House (I was amazed at how long the queue got, I spent 20 min. in line. Just like enrollment! haha ... but it was worth it... their barbeque is really something else).
So many places to eat in, so little time!

I was lucky enough to be able to watch a very talented collegemate of mine sing and play her own compositions on the piano, last night. It's very humbling and inspiring, when one realizes anew the sheer amount of raw talent present in each and every fellow student. Her haunting melodies and inspired words are still running through my mind ...
Oh, to have half her talent, and to be able to write such marvelous songs!!!

subukan mo yung kainan sa arcade near the UP church (cant remember the name). Masarap ang food don. Atsaka sa Thai canteen near Latasia, along the road to tandang sora.

ReplyDeletei had the same goal. failed. abysmally. :)
ReplyDeleteKim! You have a great suggestion but unfortunately I don't think it's possible... even if you studied one song per day, for every day you spend as a student... even if you stay in CMu for 10 years!! Haha.
ReplyDeleteMayie! Don't kill me but I'm not allowed to eat "isaw." :( Sama ka na lang sa amin one of these days, let's go food tripping in a student-budget-friendly cafeteria instead. Someplace you and I both haven't gone to before. :)
Cass!! You failed "abysmally?" How many were you able to visit? :)
hmmm.. there was cmc and music and eng'g and ncpag and econ and the beach house and chateau verde (try the oysters!) and bahay ng alumni and casaa and the ones in the sc and likha diwa and treehouse and mang jimmy's and the isawan and... yeah. do the stalls at dorm open houses count? hahahaha.
