ROX is open!

Ok, I know this is a late post so please forgive me because this is the first time I am updating my blog in a month.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This event was attended by numerous celebrities and ambassadors, some just stayed for a while while others joined the party. Examples of celebrities were Diether Ocampo, Romi Garduce, the Philippine Star journalists and lots more! Ambassadors includes the British & French ambassadors and Politicians include Mar Roxas among others.

The event was oozing with drinks and scrumptious meals accompanied by music from bands. One particular band that deserves a spot in my article is the Kadangyan band, which promotes Indigenous Filipino music blended with some western influence to form an original genre which I think is great! They are not like other Filipino bands who are so trying hard to imitate American bands!
I also want to share to all of you this specific drink, its a beer actually, but its totally different for Filipino standards if you know what I mean ;-)
It's probably 7 to 10 times stronger than the average Filipino beer! I just drank a little bit about 1 gulp then after 20 seconds I felt my ear and cheeks were hot little that I notice that my face is turning red especially my ears! The name of the beer is Coors .

By the way ROX is a store for all your outdoor sporting needs. So if you are an enthusiast in any outdoor sport, this is the place to be!

Here are some Pictures and Videos from the event with captions!

CEG & Study to Immigrate New Zealand Seminars

My will to study abroad pushed my eagerness to attend both seminars, after all it will inform you, give some insights on studying abroad, and the most wonderful reason for attending this seminar is absolutely free! Yes FREE! And who knows I might stumble upon a scholarships offer which I might try to apply. :-)

This seminar is all about the commonwealth countries (particularly UK, Canada, Australia, & New Zealand), which tries to give the Filipinos some alternative options in education destination rather than the O' so inevitable "USA" which is clearly the first choice of most Filipinos. They give you insights on why should you study in their country. For example Canada claims that the cost of living & education in their country is significantly lower than the US or other prominent educational countries. In this seminar you can ask questions regarding any subject to university or institution representatives from all of the participating countries. They would give you suggestions, comments, & free glossy or decent brochures about their school.
The CEG seminar was held at Hotel Dusit Nikko, while the Study to immigrate of New Zealand is catered at the Shangri-La Hotel Makati

In my opinion New Zealand is my first choice. Why? because the environment is clean, quality education based on the British system, if you study their you would be in the fast track on being a New Zealander, great job opportunities & because I simply adore that country! :D

How Addicted to Coffee Are You?

I am 48% Addicted to Coffee

Ok I know I scored quite low this time but believe me last year I'm pretty sure that I score really high because now my drinking consumption has been lowered because I'm still young (16 years old now, 15 last year, & I started drinking it when I was 12) and the doctor told me to refrain from drinking caffeine based drinks because I was hospitalize last year of gastritis which you can acquire from skipping meals and a lot of stress!

The Fallen by Thomas Sniegoski

I already finished this book 2 months ago but I'll still post a review here.

5 stars! This book will never fail your expectations. It's pure reading pleasure from the first page to the last. It also entices you to read the remaining 3 books of the series which I'm dying to start turning the pages and wonder upon whats gonna happen (unfortunately I had lost the second book of the series hehe)

This book is about Aaron Corbet who just turned eighteen & is about to embark into a journey of a lifetime!
It all started when Aaron had a dream about a dark violent landscape. The area was engulfed by the sounds of weapons clanging, and the screams of the helpless. He then noticed in his dream that there were angels in armors who are descending into the battlefield. Little did he know that he was half angel or a Nephilim.

Then Aaron's journey continues. Fighting angels who try to destroy him, leaving his beloved ones behind and tries to find his step brother who was been abducted by the Powers.

Will he ever find his step brother again? Will Aaron still be seeing his beloved Vilma Santiago? Will he make the prophecy come true? We can only find the answers in the three remaining books by Thomas Sneigoski.

Ugly Betty Mania!

I love this show! It's comedy & drama fused together to form the perfect prime time show you will surely never want to miss

It's about this girl named Betty who's will to succeed in life is never been affected by the prejudices being blown to her. But of course not all of the people notices her ugly physical appearance, they see her inner beauty instead.

I highly recommend you folks to watch Ugly Betty from season 1 to 2. Season 1 is already in DVD and Season 2 is currently being aired. You can also watch all of the episodes at abc.com, video on demand section

Here is a clip from season 2 which is my favorite so far in this series, Enjoy!

warning this is a spoiler if you haven't watched the series yet!
