QC has lots of green patches! These include Quezon Memorial Circle and the La Mesa Ecopark. But the green patch we visit most is the UP Diliman Campus. Even as a a college student, i fell in love with this place. On weekends, especially Sunday, UP becomes a haven for runners, bikers and us – walkers!
Among all these weekend destinations, hubby and I prefer to just hang out in the greens of UP Diliman. It's much healthier. It's also the most inexpensive gimik option. After walking around the Acad Oval we eat all the fish balls and cheese sticks that we can. There are several places to eat that are distinctly UP. This includes the Rodic's, Khas Food House and our personal favorite - Mashiita, a Korean food place in Shopping Center.
Now if you’re interested in a healthy family weekend bonding or just looking for a reason to go to UP Diliman, you might want to join my old college's event! It's Arangkada @30 Geography Fun Run. It's happening on September 14, 2013 (Saturday), Time: 6-8PM. Venue is the Academic Oval

But what i love most about this event is the singlet! I like to get one just so i can have motivation to exercise. haha

This post made me miss UP Diliman so much!
One can never have too many open spaces and parks.
Yup. We're lucky to have such a big and sprawling green campus. I miss college life too.
