Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point – Exploring La Union and The Point Residences Launch

Posted: October 20th, 2010 | No Comments »

The second day of our Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point experience is a  hectic one. We were able to have a mini tour within the resort, the rest of the gang were able to surf in San Juan, had a quick La Union tour and the main event – The Point Residences Official Launch.

I'm like a bird… a Thunderbird LOL

I woke up at around 7:30AM – and that’s already late! Instead of going straight to the breakfast buffet, I ended up surfing the net while I’m in bed Ruby and I went to the lobby by 8AM to meet up with the other bloggers. The marketing staff of Thunderbird Resorts gave us a quick tour while we’re riding at the golf carts.
Let the pictures show how wonderful the place is!

Let's play bump cars! Errr… bump carts! Errr… no

Wonderful Tree

Let's play golf in Santorini!

Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point – Santorini Experience in the North Day 1

Posted: October 15th, 2010 | No Comments »

One of the things that I noticed about Region 1 is the lack of boost when it comes to Tourism. Being a resident of Dagupan City, Pangasinan for more than twenty years, I am more than happy when I heard that a five-star resort is being developed in Poro Point, San Fernando, La Union and yep, it’s Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point!

I'm ready to stay here for 3D/2N in the Santorini-inspired Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point.

Together travel bloggers and writers, I was able to experience how it feels like to stay in Thunderbird Resorts Poro Point for 3 Days and 2 Nights. Finally, a world-class resort in Ilocos Region!

San Fernando, La Union is just an hour and a half away from Dagupan City (at least 5-6 hours from Manila). From Manila, the group took a flight to San Fernando, La Union via ZestAir. The trip was 45 minutes long and it was […]

Proud to be Dagupeño: Rave Party and Photoshoot for a Cause

Posted: October 14th, 2010 | No Comments »

I’m currently blogging live from Dagupan City, my beloved hometown. I went here at my original home mainly for an event organized by some people really close to me during the days when I was still a struggling student LOL.

I am PROUD… Are You?

On Saturday, a newly-organized group called ‘Juxtapose’ will be having their first event called ‘Proud to be Dagupeño: Rave Party and Photoshoot for a Cause’. It is a collaboration of photographers, make-up artists, stylists and event organizers who wishes to promote Dagupan City’s tourism through cool events such as this one. This is their first venture and I am quite excited for them!
Most probably you’re wondering why I took the effort to go here for a single party. Let me share why…

On Wordcamp Philippines 2010 and Matt Mullenweg

Posted: October 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

Last October 2, 2010, WordPress users from different parts of the Philippines gathered at the College of Saint Benilde for the Wordcamp Philippines 2010. It is the 3rd Wordcamp in Metro Manila and my first time to be included in the list of speakers.

Months ago, Avatar Media asked me if I can do a talk regarding the Anatomy of a WordPress Blog, which is included at the Basic Track. I presented my straight-to-the-point slide to my students. I know that some of them find my talk a bit fast and too short, but I am happy that they openly asked questions and I hope I was able to answer them. Talking to some of them personally also made me feel a bit more comfortable and less worried Actually, I can see myself in some of them when I attended the first WordcampPH two years ago.
I’ll be honest here. […]

Sola Iced Tea Orange

Personally, one of the best tasting iced tea brand in the market today is Sola and it’s surprised me that I haven’t blogged about it here, until now. My all time favorite Sola Iced Tea flavor is Peach, but the other day, I decided to try the Orange flavor and see how this new variant […]

Melting Me Slowly in Haagen Dazs Island – Caramel Biscuit Haven

Posted: October 10th, 2010 | No Comments »

Last Wednesday was pretty hectic yet memorable day for me. I wasn’t able to get some sleep because I had to work on some articles for my freelance writing gigs. Our call time for the shoot is 9:30AM at GNN’s new studio. I published my last article at 7:30AM. In short, I just ate breakfast and went straight to the guesting with a sleepyhead T_T.

Trying to stay awake for the live guesting *sleepyhead alert!*

On my way there, the taxi driver even asked me if i was able to catch some sleep. Maybe he noticed my eyebags and I was drinking a cold mocha drink while on the cab. Listening to a Filipino novelty song in the morning helps to keep me awake, i guess.

Now Micamyx is in the studio! I’m glad to see Tita Janette, Jonas (again!? LOL) and Jay-L in GNN’s Lobby. Hannah and Vince arrived a few minutes […]

Posted: October 7th, 2010 | No Comments »

Who among you are new to the world of Website Development? Some amateur web designers are asking how to beautify their HTML Website into a stylish design. My answer is, after your HTML project, you need to build a CSS for your website to make a style. I can say that you can’t do this if you do not know what HTML/CSS is. Okay, here’s a summary description of HTML and CSS:
HyperText Markup Language (HTML)
• Markup Language
• The predominant markup language for web pages
• Building blocks of all basic websites
Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML

What’s really with PLDT Watchpad

Posted: October 5th, 2010 | No Comments »

Are you an internet addict who spends time in front of the computer more than watching TV or movie? Would you believe that there is a certain broadband provider which offers an optimal experience with the use of internet? I remember way back in 2002, our first internet connection was the dial-up. I just browse, […]

What’s the title of this movie?

Posted: October 1st, 2010 | No Comments »

I already tried to Google it, asked it on Yahoo Answers and Twitter, browsed Wikipedia, IMDB, and other movie forum sites, but to no avail. It has been 3 days and I still can’t figure out what’s the title of this movie that my father is looking for. He asked me to find it online because he wants to watch it, but I admit that I’m not that good in finding stuff. I can’t even find my lost phone inside my small room years back. Hehe.

Right now the only way I can think of is to ask my dear readers the title of this very film. If someone knows the title of this film, please leave a comment below. Once you’ve posted the title of the movie, I will verify it with my father if this is the film that he has been looking for.
Here are the hints that my […]
