Flights of Fantasy Parade at Hong Kong Disneyland

Posted: March 31st, 2011 | No Comments »

Happy 5th anniversary Hong Kong Disneyland!
5 years ago, Disneyland officially opened in Hong Kong!  This meant a lot to us Filipinos because we don’t have to go all the way to the US to experience the magical world of Disneyland.  Hong Kong is just 2 hours away from the Philippines and this meant, more happy trips to kids and… well, adult kids like me and Vince  It’s more affordable to for us of course and we don’t need to apply for VISA in Hong Kong (unless you stay for more than 30 days).   Almost everyone can go: kids, adults, family, couples and even persons with disabilities!  Hong Kong itself is a pretty friendly place for PWD, moreso Disneyland and its different attractions.  You will clearly see in the map that they took every consideration to also have PWD enjoy touring around Disney and experiencing its different attractions.

The Amazing Intel Chase – Yellow Team

Posted: March 31st, 2011 | No Comments »

I am hungry for action and I need speed!
Therefore, joining races is my thing!
I have joined a lot of races before. Won a few, lose a few but no matter what the outcome is, I just love the thrill of joining a race. I would do things I’d never thought I do like eat a pig’s brain. I also raced the circuit and went out of town in our own car.
This time, I was with techie geeky people, fellow bloggers, tech media people and computer shop retailers.
Thank you so much to Intel and to Strategic Edge for inviting me to be a part of this
We are team Yellow!
 

That’s me and my team left to right: Oliver, me and Albert
This race is all about speed and action. 3 cities, 5 teams, 3 members each – one goal – To win the Amazing Intel Chase!
We got eliminated first […]

PLDT Awesome Hunt Launch at Republiq

Posted: March 31st, 2011 | No Comments »

I have been to many PLDT events before and I say they know how to PARTY! First we rocked at Magnet and did some Rockeoke. Then at Encore with the PLDT Watchpad contestants. Last saturday, we partied at Republiq! Thanks to everyone at Saatchi and PLDT for giving us unlimited supply of jello shots and Vodka!

I am notorious for going to clubs on my sneakers yeah that’s right… Heels can’t make me dance for the entire night! But, I don’t care, I love being comfortable
That night, check out my bohemian attire >.<

Good thing, Republiq had a summer party going on too! So, I belong… with my oversized silk jeans I came from an acting workshop before this and didn’t have the time to change I wasn’t wearing makeup too so I took out my emergency makeup kit – just eyebrow powder and […]

Life and Sunsets

Posted: March 30th, 2011 | No Comments »

Last week was a pretty tough week for me. No, I didn’t have any direct problems nor caused one. There are just some things in life that you cannot really control. Life is not a computer program where you can debug when you encounter some errors. It is not a full-length movie where you can edit out some parts that you find dragging. Life is a gift that we are lucky to have, no matter how happy or down we are feeling at the moment.

Manila Bay Sunset (January 2010)

I’ve been pushing myself to write a decent blog post or a short screenplay for that matter. I end up trying to figure out what I should be blogging about. I am eager to blog about my UK Trip, but recent events made me temporarily loose that happy momentum. It will be back one day. I just don’t need to force it. […]

Trio Family Style Italian Bistro, Pizzeria, Wine Bar

Posted: March 30th, 2011 | No Comments »

Another day, another discovery!
I haven’t been around The Fort in a while after I resigned from my corporate job. One thing I miss from the corporate life was eating around our area with my officemates at The Fort. Dining out was our way of coping with stress. We always lunch out on Fridays and we casually look for restaurants to eat.
And the place that I will feature today is Trio Restaurant at the Fort Strip at BGC. I’m still not used to calling that area BGC, I still call it “The Fort” but oh well.
If I was still working, I would highly recommend this place to my officemates. But since, I’m not working anymore, I still would recommend this place to my readers who want to bring in officemates or family to wine and dine at Trio. The concept of their restaurant is Familia Italia so bring your friends and […]

Automatic Tubig Machine: The Self-Service Coin-Operated Water Vending Machine

Posted: March 28th, 2011 | No Comments »

For many Pinoys in Metro Manila, the acronym ATM stands for an Automated Teller Machine – but in some parts of the Visayas and Mindanao, an ATM could also mean the very ingenious Automated Tubig Machine. An ATM, as the title suggests, is a self-service coin-operated water vending machine. And I was lucky enough to […]

Is It Safe For Children to Drink Soy Milk?

Posted: March 28th, 2011 | No Comments »

I’ve already written about the health benefits of soy milk. And I know some of my friends prefer drinking it over cow’s milk. But how about children? Is it safe for kids to drink soy milk or is it just for adults? Why would this be a concern? Well, primarily because soy milk contains phytoestrogen, […]

First Time in Palawan, Flower Island

Posted: March 27th, 2011 | No Comments »

I must say, I am so reluctant to admit that at my 25 years of being here in the Philippines, I haven’t been to one of the most beautiful places in my home country – Palawan. I have heard the many good things people say about this place but sadly, some sad events happened too that I shared with you here. Apart from that, cyanide and dynamite fishing were very rampant, killing our coral beds leaving a small percentage alive.
“The World Atlas of Coral Reefs, compiled by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), reported that 97 percent of reefs in the Philippines are under threat from destructive fishing techniques, including cyanide poisoning, over-fishing, or from deforestation and urbanization that result in harmful sediment spilling into the sea.” (source)
I was amazed by the beauty of Palawan and saddened at the same time that the Palawan seas are very vulnerable to many […]

Watermelon Sprite Float by Jollibee

Posted: March 24th, 2011 | No Comments »

If you go to Jollibee today, you’ll notice a new drink that they’re promoting for summer – the Watermelon Sprite Float. Personally, it’s doesn’t sound really refreshing – maybe because I’m imagining all the sugar in the drink. You have watermelon flavored syrup, Sprite and of course, the vanilla soft-served ice cream. However, curiosity got […]

Juggling Elephants

Posted: March 24th, 2011 | No Comments »

Earlier in one of my blog posts I mentioned how I miss reading again. Earlier this year, I also felt the quarter life crisis kicking in and I felt so depressed and confused but at the same time overwhelmed with the things that I need to do and the tasks that I needed to accomplish. […]

A Tribute to Stephen

Posted: March 22nd, 2011 | No Comments »

Bihira na akong magsulat ng blog entry in taglish pero hindi ko mapigilan ang sarili ko. Sa tingin ko, sa ganitong paraan ko lang maipapahayag ang tunay kong nararamdaman sa biglaang pagpanaw ng isa sa mga taong naging malaking impluwensya sa buhay ko kahit pa marami ang hindi nakakaalam o nakakaintindi kung bakit ganito siya ka-importante sa akin na naisipan ko pang gumawa ng blog post tungkol sa kanya.

Stephen Munoz (1976-2011)

Tara, balik tayo sa taong 1999…
Umuusbong pa lang ang internet noon. Naalala ko pa nga na natuto akong mag-internet dahil may nakita akong website address sa isang Spice Girls memorabilia. Sabi ng kaklase ko, mag-internet daw kami para makakita kami ng maraming pictures ng Spice Girls. Ano nga ba yung internet? Ay, sa kompyuter ‘yun. Maraming nagagawa sa internet pero napakamahal. Sa iskul namin noon, pwede ka gumamit ng napakabagal na dial-up internet sa internet laboratory na makikita sa main […]

Monks’ Blend Coffee from Transfiguration Church in Bukidnon

Posted: March 22nd, 2011 | No Comments »

Bukidnon is well known for their pineapples, but also – the Church of the Monastery of Transfiguration in San Jose, Malaybalay City. I got to visit the majestic pyramid-shaped chapel last year and of course, buy some of the famous Monks’ Blend Premium Coffee right from the source. The high altitude of Bukidnon and the […]
