Posted: August 21st, 2012 | No Comments »

Like every people’s wish, I also wanted to go to the USA and be immersed into its diverse culture and hospitality. Aside from traveling, other people go there to study, and to be specific for some, study English. As an English speaking country aside from UK, USA is also an ideal place to study English. […]

Posted: August 20th, 2012 | No Comments »

Cathay Pacific was more than an aircraft. In each and every backseat, attached is an LCD screen with wide selection of movies, TV series, shows, and music to choose from. Cozy. After the safety rules, the plane operator finally switched the screen to a dynamic menu where you can choose to watch movies or listen […]

Nelly Furtado surprised the crowd by singing and dancing to popular Korean song "Gungnam Style".  With Nelly Furtado during her concert in Manila is the band Gym Class Heroes.
 
I’m so sorry for the shakey video!
I got so carried away when I saw Nelly Furtado singing and dancing the goofy dance steps of Gungnam Style!
I started dancing while taking the video… forgetting that I am holding the camera.  Silly me!

I LOVE THESE GIRLS!
They’re the first girl band I went crazy with and until now, I still am!  I think, without them, I wouldn’t be this “FLAIR” candy you know now. Seriously!  They inspired me that whole “Girl Power” thing and went well for me all the way!
The London Olympics featured almost all modes of transportation in their closing  ceremony.  One Direction used a huge truck. 
Spice Girls used TAXI cabs! Glittered taxi cabs!
and they were WOW!  I got the Goosebumps all over watching them again, reunited!  I really wish to watch their concert, it has been my dream.  And they were so close to performing in Hong Kong which I would have flown for just to see them.
 
Anyway check out the video and the photos of the Spice Girls at […]

I spent 2 days in different airports.  Went from one country to another, and I found out that the Philippines was crying because of the habagat.  It was a bit hard for me have fun in my trip when some of my friends were waist-deep in the flood.
I went home via Clark airport and I was so worried that Clark airport might be flooded as well, and my car would be flooded too.  Luckily it didn’t flood in Clark Airport and it is one safe place for my car, rather than I would have left it in my condo in Manila, my car would have been gone.
I got stranded in Clark area because NLEX was flooded and the rest of the roads I needed to cross to go home.

Crickets Lyrics
The Freshman ft. Allan Lyrics
 
So I told her like ooh darling,
I feel like I am falling
I think it be whatever it is they’re callin’
I’m talkin’ bout love (love, love)
 
My friends say ____
but I don’t really give a f*ck (oh, oh)
Pardon my French girl
I just wanna know what’s up
I told her we should kick it, but all I heard was crickets
 
 
Yeah, I’m like, girl whatcha doin’ for today
I’m thinking maybe me and you should go and run away
And that I don’t believe in love at first sight
But after seeing you baby maybe I might
‘Coz when you walked by
I knew you […]

How to delete that “man” and make your travel photos look great

Posted: August 12th, 2012 | No Comments »

It is sometimes annoying when you capture a very beautiful spot or landmark but there are people that are not supposed to be there. Good thing Photoshop has a capability of editing photos which can remove photobombers in the background. Let me show you a great example of photo I took in Hundred Islands, Alaminos […]
