The month of May came and went fast. Like zoom zoom.
I was physically exhausted but my mind was more relaxed, hmmm maybe I was only half stressed.
It was a relief not to open my laptop, Globe phone on a daily basis. It reduced stress somehow. And who cared if I didn’t note down my whereabouts, what I did, bought, ate? The world would still spin even without me.
I didn’t update my online diary blog kuno in May because I wanted to rest and I was actually preoccupied with other things.
I didn’t take as much photos as I used to. I stopped observing people or my surroundings. More or less I lived for a few weeks as if it was twenty years ago when selfie didn’t exist yet. When humans were not yet documenting every second of their lives.
The downside of not blogging was I became even more forgetful. I realized that OMB made me or forced me to remember things otherwise I had nothing to write about. I did manage though to take a few boring photos to remember where I was.

TO SEE ROLL POKE / SUSHI BAR
7040 S Rainbow Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89113
Edmund and I discovered a sushi place called To See Roll. We’ve gone back a few times and we’re looking forward to earning a free medium-sized bowl after our 10th visit.
We always ordered the same things.

KOREAN ALL YOU CAN EAT BBQ
Chinatown
We’ve been to this Korean BBQ place along Spring Mountain Rd. the long row of restaurants near the Strip. My husband’s feeling about this restaurant is love-hate-love-hate. We loved it the first time, the second time we thought the food was bland, the third time they tasted delicious, the fourth time we thought they were trying to space our orders to cut back on food costs. I actually considered bringing the Tan clan here for a simple birthday dinner but after several days of contemplation I decided not to.
They imposed a 90 minutes dining limit and I thought we didn’t want to be rushed.
My husband always does the cooking while I do the eating.
There are many Korean BBQ places in Las Vegas and I still wish to have the chance to bring my children in one good one. The four of us dining together is becoming a rare occasion because of distance. Nyke lives away from us and Oyen’s travel schedules are not always in consonance with ours. And finding ourselves back in this city of thousand restaurants all at the same time needs planning and coordination.

DYSON VACUUM CLEANER
Etong mag-ama merong intriga sa vacuum cleaner. My daughter has been wanting to buy a Dyson vacuum cleaner ever since she spotted it in Rustan’s. Dyson is now very aggressively promoting their brand in Manila.
They opened a showroom in the new Podium Mall in Mandaluyong. I;ve seen their electronic billboard at EDSA, they have big newspaper advertisement.
Their ads caught my daughter’s interest.
We went to Costco in Summerlin upon Oyen’s request to go buy her a Dyson.
Ang dami palang klase. Edmund and I’s rule is the simpler the better.
E—-“Bakit ba gustong bumili yang anak mo ng vacuum cleaner?”
A—-“Nakita nya sa Rustan’s, maganda raw”.
E—-“Bakit, sya ba ang maglilinis ng kwarto nya?”
A—-“Hmmm, siguro”.
The functionality of wifi was that I was able to take photos and Viber to Oyen in seconds. V7 plus animal.
E—-“Baka masayang lang yan. San ba nya gagamitin?”
A—–“Eh baka maglilinis sya”.
E—–“Bakit biglang-bigla naman gusto nyang mag vacuum?”
A—–“Hindi daw ito. Yung more advanced”.
E—–“San ba nya gagamitin, bakit hindi sya dun bumili?”
A—–“Hayaan mo kung gusto nyang bumili”.
We could not see the voltage specs on the box so we bought one so we could open and check if 220 or 110. We returned the box untouched after a few days.
E—-“Sabihin mo sa anak mo dun na lang sya bumili”.
A—-“Mas mahal nga at wala daw nung gusto nya na Dyson 10”.
E—-“Saan ba nya gagamitin? Bakit gusto nyang magvacuum”.
A—-“Tart, hayaan mo kung gusto nyang bumili, wag mong pansinin. Kung gusto nyang linisin yung buong bahay natin at magtayo ng cleaning service, hayaan mo”.
