Poppy's

Instead of the usual Friday activities, I have to-dos first to meet before attending the Mass at Sto. Nino de Paz Greenbelt Chapel.  Left with my Tudor Black Bay 54 on my left wrist and my Apple watch on my right.  Also wore my Yui Tabi Shoes.

First stop is at our Ortigas office.  My separation papers will be released and it will only be available Wednesdays and Fridays from 9AM to 10AM.  Must inform 2 days ahead if you are going so that they can prepare the papers.  When I arrived, the small conference was already full.  I have to wait for my turn.  When I was able to get a seat, my papers were readily available.  But the people who was there when I arrived, were still there when I left.  The difference?  I have already signed-off the quitclaim and waiver months before, while said document is still in front of them.   They have a lot of questions, thinking whether they should be signing off now or later.

Second stop is at baby hub.  I bought a kids camera via Lazada.  The camera has issues in displaying and printing certain images (specifically night shots).  I have coordinated with the (foreign) support.  After several exchanges, the support recommended that I coordinate with the local reseller and have it replaced.  After several exchanges with the local reseller, they advised that I have the item sent to them via Lalamove or Grab.  The number of days the items can be returned via Lazada has already expired.  Since our Ortigas office is few minutes away from Quezon Avenue, I decided to bring the item to baby hub and show to them the issue.  I also printed the exchanges I have with the (foreign) support and the record of my Lazada purchase.  Hopefully, it will be replaced.

And, finally, I was dropped off at Greenbelt Chapel.

The Mass presider is Fr. Benny.

The miracle of the feeding of 5000 men is the only miracle present in all the Gospels.   This miracle is the view of what is to come in the Kingdom. When they get to heaven, they will be satisfied. 

Bread of Life discourse will be the Gospel for six succeeding days. It is the Holy Eucharist. 

The Eucharist is the continuation of what happened in Calvary. The salvation continues in every Eucharist. 

The Eucharist is the testimony of His presence. He said He will always be with us. 

The "gather the fragments" in the Gospel represent those who have served the Lord in his life. When you feel fragmented after serving the Lord, He will gather you and refresh you.

After, I visited the Mary, Mother of Hope Chapel at The Landmark.  For lunch, it is at Bacolod Chicken Inasal.  Then, I returned to The Landmark to go to Anson's to buy an induction stove.  I asked Edgar, the driver, to meet me at Anson's so he can carry our purchase.

While I was having lunch and scrolling through the Swarm mobile application, noticed food reviews.  There's this Poppy's Halo Halo at The Landmark Food Center.  So, we went there to buy halo-halo to-go.


Passed by our Washington apartments on our way home to see the progress.

N.B.  Edgar said that the halo-halo is masarapEven Lyn concurs.  I was able to taste after 12 midnight.  It is true.  But I don't like beans in my halo-halo.  Good thing there are just a few beans.
