Yes, fuhrealz!
Johnnie Walker is inviting the F1 legend Mika Hakkinen over here in the Philippines!
 

Mika Hakkinen is Johnnie Walker’s responsible drinking ambassador.  I am a huge fan of F1 myself and I also love to race!!!  I take it to the race tracks though because I know the importance of being safe – not only for myself but for other people too!
I was first aware of Johnnie Walker’s campaign to responsible driving “Don’t drink and drive” when I went to Singapore to witness the first night race ever in 2008!

This is me outside Amber Lounge party. – September 2008
Tickets are at EUR 500 per person!

I highly appreciate this movement because I know how one mistake could happen in just a split second.
So there you go, if you want to race and […]

Healthy Coffee, Healthy Deal

Posted: October 19th, 2011 | No Comments »

For years, debate has been going on whether or not coffee is good or bad. And many studies have shown that despite the ill effects that drinking too much coffee brings; this popular beverage – if consumed in moderation, can really be good for one’s health. A couple of years ago, I’ve written a blog […]

They didn’t call Bacolod the “City of Smiles” for nothing!
The Masskara Festival started in the early 80s.  That was a time for crisis in the city with a sunken ship and the sugarcane crisis.  It was bad times for the people of Bacolod.  The artists and the government worked to hold a Festival in that year.  This was intended to turn the gloomy atmosphere of the city and turn it into an activity that would give the people hope.  Indeed it was the city of smiles.  After may years of celebrating this, it is proof that the people of Bacolod can rise up to any challenge and move on to a positive light.
And alas –
I’m back in my hometown!
I have never really experienced being in the streets during Masskara Festival even […]

I am so surprised that we are seated at a box.  Great view! I forgot my glasses though.
I am watching the premiere showing of Stomp LIVE here in Manila CCP.  The show hasn’t started yety but I will post another review of their show which should run for 1 hr and 40 minutes!
TIP:
Don’t be late! You will miss the grand entrance and they will let you in only after 10 mins.
Turn your phones off! This will jam their sound and lighting system. Enjoy the show instead!
Don’t bring your digital cameras and SLRs unless you are an official photographer. If you do so, you would have to deposit them outside.

I love my earth and I love the seas, the forest and of course I love animals.
My heart cries when I hear animals being abused especially cats, dogs and bunnies.  We have animal shelters too but they need help.  I found a way to help these lovely animals and you too can help by being fashionable!

In celebration of World Animal Month this October, Nailaholics Nail Salon & Spa pledged to give 10% of the proceeds of the Anailmalistic promo to the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) to help shelter animals. A little goes a long way for every animal print nail art availed in any of the 28 branches of Nailaholics Nail Salon & Spa nationwide as proceeds will help PAWS perform its mandate of fighting for the welfare and human […]

When FRUSTRATION strikes, it causes SLEEPLESS NIGHTS. SLEEPLESS MORNING in my case. My sleeping routine got worse and even I am not happy about it. There are times wherein I wish I have a meeting somewhere or have a scheduled trip just for my body clock to adjust. My dark brown window curtain is not […]

Pride ruins relationships. I don’t know why people cling to this. Most of the time, when I argue with someone, I am the first one to swallow my pride. I know better now than before and I know that it’s just pointless to keep it there.
I mean pride in a certain amount is ok, sometimes it’s good. But too much of something is just not good at all.
It’s such a heavy feeling and literally, it can put me emotionally and physically down. It’s such a stress.
It’s best to just pause, breathe deeply, clear my thoughts for a while and think slowly… Think on what matters most and what makes sense.
If I bother putting down my pride just to save my relationship with friends, family and […]
