a.  What would you correct from your past to save the future?

I'd conserve more water, never use plastic for not so important thing and shouldve start earth hour since the day I was born. 

Let’s join Chef Lau’s Dinner Party!

Celebrity chef and the man behind Bistro Filipino, Chef Rolando Laudico together with Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief (CSPR) is throwing a party and you can win an exclusive invite for 2 to join the sensitivity pain-free party as he shares and celebrates his success over tooth-sensitivity with Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief.

As for me, I want to be on this party to ask 3 things:

1. When he cooks, does he think of the crowd more and adjust to their taste or he simply cooks from his heart?
2. As a person with no talent in cooking at all, I wanted to ask him the secret of cooking sensitive pain-free and yet delicious meals/desserts? Especially, when we all know  tooth sensitivity ruins our total food/eating experience.
3. Chef's are normally private people. Why did he particularly chose to partner Colgate on this event?

The BLACK MAMBA?

The Black Mamba is a short film by Nike Basketball production staring Kobe, Kanye West, Bruce Willis, and Danny Trejo.

The film brings Kobe’s alter ego, the Black Mamba to life in a way that’s never been seen before. The Black Mamba highlights Kobe’s everyday determination and “fight to the finish” spirit. The film also showcases Kobe as one of the best basketball players in the world, featuring him as a “protector" of basketball as he fights off those wishing to destroy and attack the game.

The film is under the direction of Robert Rodriguez who at the same time directed as Desperado (1995), From Dusk till Dawn (1996), The Faculty (1998), Spy Kids (2001), Sin City (2005), Planet Terror (2007), and Machete (2010).

Should you fear the BLACK MAMBA?

No. If you know yourself, your capabilities and your skills and you believe in yourself. Then, there is nothing that can shake you. You can't fear anything even the longest venomous snake.

Nuffnang and PLDT myDSL Special Screening

“The Social Network is to Facebook, 

as PLDT myDSL modem+wifi is to 

TOTAL IN DIGITAL LIFE.”

PLDT plays a big part in my life and of my family. Having a father who works as a seafarer and is always on the ship, we only have limited time to enjoy with each other. But with PLDT, being oceans apart from my father makes us like the waves kissing the shores of the sea. 

It was hard growing up without a father. My dad has always worked as a seaman ever since I was born, so I never really felt how it is to have a Father for a long time--the longest that he's with us is 6 months. 

Although, he may not be with us physically, he makes up for the lost time by calling us every now and then. Through our PLDT Phone line, it makes dad just a phone call away. 

But with the hype of technology, our communication with my father innovated as well. Now, we communicate with him through video calling. We just don't hear him out clearly, we also see him on video streams real time. Video calling technology helps our family be closer to my dad.  

We used to have a lot of problems with video calling before when we are still using dial-up connection to the internet but when we started using PLDT myDSL, we experienced enhanced internet connection and faster video calling to my dad. 

And now the PLDT myDSL is even better because it comes with a modem+wifi. With PLDT myDSL modem+wifi, my whole family can now chat with my dad in wherever part of the house we could be... sofa, bed, sala, kitchen, bathroom, garden, etc. PLDT myDSL modem+wifi gives us a totally different world wide web experience.

It also helps us continue collecting and sharing memorable moments with my dad and our relatives around the globe... my favorite memory that PLDT myDSL made possible was when my mom  prepared a candlelit dinner date via Video Call to my dad during their anniversary.

love, now and always, 

PS: Here's my blog about the Movie.

Pagbabago

We rarely have cakes in celebrations, events and festivities when I was a kid. What we always have during special occasions are either: Goldilocks' Mamon or Ensaymada. It feels weird because, even during birthdays, they stuck the candle on top of the Mamon when we can all feast with a more glamorous sweet cake.

Like all kids, I desire the sweet taste of icing and sugar candy flowers on a birthday, anniversary, or whatever cake. But whenever I ask Mom to buy one, even the "cakes rolls" would do, she would always tell me that the Mamon and Ensaymada is just perfect for ALL of US.

We even came to an intense mom-daughter debate over it. But again and again she would just say, "the Mamon and Ensaymada is just perfect for ALL." However, whenever a celebration come, I would still ask her over and over to buy one.

When Mom finally lost her temper over me, she finally spilled the reason why we don't buy sweet cakes:

Mom: Your lolo can't eat cake.

Me: Why?

Mom: He has diabetes.

Me: And what is that?

Mom: In simple words... if he eats food with too much sugar, he would die.

Me: Really?

Mom: Yes.

Me: But how come when I ask him to finish the lolipop I don't like he eats it?

Mom: Because he loves you.

After Mom explained everything, I never demanded for a cake. When my Lolo died, cakes always graced every celebration.

Quite a big CHANGE for every celebration, not because there's a sweet cake for us to share, but because Lolo isn't a part of it anymore.

PS: If only sugar less and sugar free Goldilocks' products were invented back then, I could've shared a bite with my lolo.

love, now and always,
