jollibee closing?

the thought makes me sad, just the other night i was drooling while looking at their brochure brought home by hubby from the store 2 wks ago and was mentally making plans to take a trip one weekend to satisfy the cravings...

why are they closing? it's just been exactly a year [this march] since they opened! and we haven't hang out that much...

apparently, they can't keep up with the competition [KFC and McDonalds]... heard they are moving to a place where KFC and McDonalds are nowhere near... where could that be? as far as I know, there's a KFC and McDo in the city, anywhere I turn...

add to that, the fact that the 'tsekwas' are not ready yet to give up their mian bao, rou bao, dumplings, noodles and what-have-you's in exchange of the panlasang pinoy {e.g. 'sweet' spaghetti, 'salty' chickenjoy} anytime soon!

it is really too bad... i'll miss you... we will miss you, jollibee! come back soon....

what? those are buildings?

seriously looked like stacks of crates and boxes to me! {what a great imagination and creative minds these chinese have!} i am in awe!

what do you think?

{buildings outside WOTW}

caricature

while walking around inside the window of the world, we chanced upon this chinese artist at work, doing a caricature of a male chinese... gabe {as expected}, was amazed and doesn't want to leave until the artist is done...

and here is his work... with the model...

amazing talent!

{he did it in 15 mins.}
