Back to the Groove

Howdy Muchachos!!

Aryo's is back and alive, hehehehe.. So sorry for mellow tones the past days-Everything will be alright and if it is not then I have to believe it will be =)

Eniwei..initially I want to share with y'all about my adventure for the past days! I think I put on my previous posting that I was craving marinated grilled tempe at Mellow Mushroom in Murfreesboro, voila here you go amigos.. It was a nice lunch, end up going there by myself, although one biggest regret that I had was ordered COKE that cost me 2.99 before tax, stink! The Tempeh Hoagies itself only about 6 includes chips which i thought not bad at all =).. oh well it all said and done, truly enjoy my lunch that day, superb treats for moi!


Moving can cause huge draining on your finances, and on top of that for this month I only have one income which coming from coucou since due to payroll issues, my current school not able to get my paycheck until end of June which totally screwed me up left and right! Trying to survive with the situation plus after long lecture from a good friend of mine that stating that "Nashville trends for nowadays is Frugal living" ok.. Me and Coucou decided to do couponing, yes, madame c'est monsieur, Aryo is now doing coupon! Over the weekend, i decided to go over piles of advertisement mails that normally i will throw away as soon as I see them.. Couponing here we come and men, we have so much to learn about all of these deals that eventually if you do it right can get you good and deep discount! There are some websites that also become handy as we try to do this coupon stuffs;
Still trying to learn and put those coupon on practice, voila hehehe we save few dollars this weekend as we bought groceries and meals from Captains'D.. not bad at all and for me now it is become like a game-pretty challenging to navigate through coupon world =).. pretty soon I may have special posting for COUPONING 101
Living in civilization does provide us with access and options to do-whether you want the FREE ones or with FESS, nonetheless, all come with price because at least we have to drive somewhere and that's mean GaS =).. On sunday, we decided to check out the new location of McKay book store-love love this store and I can't get enough of books! McKay is a used bookstore and also Music, Films etc-you can find all kind of genre there..you may think, ughhh its used books-well it is sometimes way better that going to regular bookstores since you get more ranges of books plus the prices is more affordable! The new Mckay location is on I40 West going toward Memphis at exit 199 then you can see a big pink loft kind of building..

Interesting stories as I browse books at Mckay, I was on my fave aisle; World History and Biography, then all of the suddent this elder white men holler at me as I leave the aisle.."hey hey you, and i was like; Me? yes, you? Ohh ok, how can i help you sir'.. then he said; what are you doing at history and biography aisle, you read all of these genre? I said yes, I am quite a history buff, and he ask, what kind of history you like? Mmmm I am more toward european history, rennaisance era, etc.. all of the sudden he respond-so you dont like american history? I said yes, but I am more leaning toward guilded ages during american history.. then he add, so you don't like civil wars, etc, mmm..not so much sir'.. he add; well you should, you live in America you know.. I just grinned and left him at that point..weirdo old men!
Another encounter was few minutes after the old men-I was on the Internationa Studies/Middle East aisle and pull out book about Iraq, then I heard this gentlemen behind me, so you know about Middle East, oh god not again.. and I said pretty much, can I help you.. Well my daughter is going to Turkey, do you have good book to read about the country... I explain to him firstly about where Turkey actually located and recommend him my fave author from Turkey-Orhan Pamuk! Long stories short,this second encounter end up decent-the gentlemen daughter is going to Izmir for Middle School Space camp, and I tell him that he should not be worried since Izmir is quite safe and a beautiful place to visit-similar like you going to FL

Well muchachos, that was my adventure the past days-me and coucou wrapping up sunday with a nice tasty home made baked soft shell pasta for dinner =).. gottta dash off to work now, gran bisous! stay tune for more adventures..



Lastly, I had a nice surprise earlier this week-one of my traveling buddies; Heather from FDU New Jersey came to Nashville for her annual Carrie Underwood pilgrimage.. We decided to get together at her hotel-Sheraton Music City, never been there and I think it is one of the nicest hotel in-town! We spend evening together catching up news, oh boy how much I missed her and my other buddies! As we chat at the hotel lounge, bring back memories of my travels, how we normally meet at lobby etc-been quite awhile since I went to hotel.. Heading home that day with so much joy, glad to see old friends and being able to get her little treats, fried pickles from Barb-cuties whose well known for their fried pickles and BarbQ of course..Wish I took pictures with heather!
