It’s Mexican again! I am a huge fan of Mexican food and this one takes the cake enchilada! I posted a not so yummy burrito for Food Friday two weeks ago and wasn’t so happy. That is about to change! I have tasted, not one, but two yummy enchiladas, one taco and one tamale from Chevys!

I chose the Chevys Super Cinco Combo and was really stuffed! It was uber yummy, something I wouldn’t mind eating again! My meal had a Chicken enchilada, a beef enchilada, a beef crispy taco, a hand-rolled pork tamale, and a hand-battered chile relleno. The chile isn’t pictured here because it didn’t turn out okay.

This Food Friday Entry will be a special! I am posting a slurry of photos just to celebrate the yummyness of my meal!

Corn Tortillas and Salsa for the Appetizer…what’s more, it’s free!

Soda goes with the meal…with free refills!

My meal…it’s enough to feed an army!

Films: The Half-Blood Prince

Filed Under (Films, Traipsey-Turvey) by Z on 31-07-2008

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince trailer is out! It’s been all over the blogosphere and on YouTube and is supposed to debut this Friday in the movie The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. I couldn’t wait to see it as a trailer for the movie (incidentally, I am going to see The Mummy this Friday) so I hopped over to YouTube and saw it.
The trailer sent chills down my spine! I hope that they would live up to my expectations following my disappointment with the past three Harry Potter films. The teaser trailer is indeed a teaser and hints at what we would expect in the movie which will be out sometime this November. I am definitely going to save the date and see the premiere; I haven’t been on a single Red Carpet Event ever and I am practically living in Hollywood. Yeah, I know I’m being melodramatic but that’s just the drama queen in me talking.

Are you excited to see The Half-Blood Prince?

Learnings: Online Jargon

You got me! I’m a complete noob when it comes to online jargon. I was racking my brains out thinking about what LMAO or IMHO stand for but I was to chicken to ask my other blogger friends. A light bulb suddenly came on and I smacked myself on the head; I can find all this stuff if I Googled it! I hopped over to G’s homey and behold, the answer to all my prayers! I am now sharing these to other bloggers who are to chicken to ask for fear of criticism. I added a few terms that I knew and some that I haven’t had the opportunity to see written around the blogosphere (yet). You don’t need to tell me that you learned from this post, in fact, you can remain anonymous!

Citizenship for Sale

Filed Under (Internet Finds, Traipsey-Turvey) by Z on 30-07-2008

dNeero has a follow-up conversation from their previous “Citizenship for Sale” conversation a few weeks ago. Since I am an immigrant, one question caught my eye: should citizens be able to sell their citizenship. Well, I’m not sure how the question was really stated
