Music Monday: Da Best Ang Feeling

They make best station ID really! I just hope they use the correct spelling of words next time. I\’m glad that feeling was not spelled PEELING.

It really is the best feeling to have someone ( a friend or a loved one) spend quality time with you, rain or shine.

Music Monday: Say Hey

One of tracks from my Zumba. It\’s a catchy, dance-able and  feel free song. Can\’t get it out of my head.

Stay fit and strong beautiful people :).

London Olympics 2012

In my 2 years here in SG, I witnessed 2 major sporting events that has a special impact in this country. The World Cup and London Olympics. I love the sense of importance, support and excitement that emanates in this place. It\’s hyped up to promote the country\’s genuine interest on reaching for the GOLD.

My fond memory on watching this was the 1992 Barcelona, Spain Summer Olympics. The time that Bea Lucero will be representing the country for Taekwondo at siya ang pinakasikat sa batch na yun. There was about more than 50 delegates to that said batch. After them, next few Olympics was a blur. It only touched my senses again during Michael Phelps historic Beijing medal sweep.

Now that, I\’m here in another country, I still can\’t believe am providing time in watching ANY game that I could come across. Too bad I missed the opening ceremony but, my friend Badzy who\’s based in London together with her colleagues experienced it first hand. That is so cool! They were even featured in TV Patrol.

There are a lot to see in the Olympics aside from the sports.

1. Awesome and larger that life cameras and telelens.  Here\’s a peek from the Canon Gear room.
3. Iphoneography at its best. Olympic Smartphone photoblog by Dan Chung.
4. The bodies to die for…The Olympic winning body for myself and the ripped bodies of these swimmers. I just love looking at their Latissimus Dorsi.
Ryan Lochte he may be M.P.\’s shadow but no shadow can hide his yummy-ness tee-hee ;)\\

5. Many hotel have lowered their rates for the  Olympic season. But its supposed to increase especially with this kind of events. Right?!
For the next few days we\’ll just have to wait and see who will be the Olympic champion. Lets keep watching and good luck to everyone.
Never say die, Team Philippines.

Online shopping: G-market

I\’ve been hearing about G-market from colleague Julie. She raves it alot, I think a convulsion will do justice for her unwavering happiness and excitement every time she gets her purchase. It wasn\’t until my housemate Ate Odette receives her shopping bundle. I was intrigued, even my blog ads were Qoo10 promos. I decided to try it myself…
After some purchases and the exhilarating moment of waiting and receiving the goodies at your mailbox. Qoo10 (changed its name last May 2012) has stolen my heart…I never looked back.
Here are some of my purchases:
Name labels
Travel pillow and multipurpose shawl.
EOS non-petrolatum lip balm. Ed Westwick uses this 😉
Online shopping may be exciting but you have to consider some factors in buying online items.
  1. Read recommendations from fellow buyers. Remember the consumers are the best critiques. If they\’re not happy with you product/service they\’ll be telling it to other friends for sure. The power of word-of-mouth.
  2. Once you\’ve bought the product you have to wait. I find it painstaking. Unlike in a regular store,   you have to wait.
  3. It\’s quite difficult buying clothes and shoes. Sizes are not really as \’exact\’ when you receive the item. This depends on the items 
  4. Qoo10 provides some cheaper alternatives to other products that we see in malls.
  5. Your payment is safe because the seller will only receive their payment if you have received the item.
  6. Qoo10 has secured payment policy.
Happy Shopping!!!
XOXO

Music Monday: High

This song was overplayed and over-hyped at school. It\’s really a beautiful song. Add to it, the unique voice of the Lighthouse vocalist (uhh sorry I don\’t know his name). The question is, whatever happened to them? They look promising in 1997. We\’ll see the answers from here.
