I've Been Busy Last Week


While everyone is enjoying their long weekend (the declared holiday as the Philippines mourn over the death of Ka Erdy), I have been busy. There's no holiday for me then. I have to wake up early and be at Cubao by 6AM for I have to catch up my 9AM flight to Cebu. No, it was not for vacation, it was for work. I have to work even on a holiday. The declaration is that late that I already booked my travel and could not cancel my trip. It had been a busy week for me. Will be posting here the pictures I had taken in my succeeding posts.

Need Some Halloween Costume?

It is already the “BER” months, and I can already smell Christmas in the air. But wait! Before Christmas happens, there is still another joyous celebration, the Halloween. We have not celebrated any party for the Halloween here in our company, but I get to see some party on the streets as well as on TV. More so, there were children who wear Halloween costumes during All Saints Day while visiting their departed love ones. Here at our country, Halloween had been celebrated. Contests on the scariest and the loveliest Halloween costumes were held every 31st of October. And I am delighted on how creative the contestants were.

If ever I would be joining such contests, or if I will be picking an entry, the following costumes will be my pick. Well, not to win, but just for fun, and for personal gratification.



Foremost will be this Adult Carver The Killer Clown. I like the idea of having a clown as a scary creature rather than a funny one during the Halloween season. Well, for a change, and uniqueness. We all know that kids do love to play with the clowns. But having such scary clown creature, the children could also bear in mind that not all lovely or funny creatures are trustworthy. So, it is a suitable Halloween costume that also has the informative side of it.



Then, I would also be picking Bad Seed Creature Reacher. Halloween is always related to pumpkins. Hence, it is a brilliant thing to have a terrifying pumpkin alive, together with the large, trunk-like hands. This Halloween costume will surely be a hit, and could really be a winner.

All these costumes are available at Costume Cauldron. They’ve got a lot for adults, kids, and even toddlers. They don’t simply provide scary costumes, but they’ve got angel and fairy costumes as well. If you are excited of the upcoming Halloween, join them as they count the days to Halloween! Go here. And to keep you upbeat, feel free to become a fan of their FaceBook account.

TimeZone at TriNoMa

Next week, I will be pursuing my cancelled Cebu travel. It's all work then. But before that, I will be sharing with you one of the things that I am doing for entertainment.




These were my pictures 2 years ago. To eliminate stress from all-day work, me and my girl would normally pass by TimeZone at TriNoMa and have a shoot out. It is fun. I am already missing this kind of entertainment.

Buy Your Car

I am a well travelled person, as my work requires me to. But I will definitely enjoy my travel if I will be travelling for leisure and relaxation. I had always dreamt of being to these places that I’ve been with my girl, driving our own car. I had set in my mind that owning a car is important as we journey together. As early as now, I have been searching and equipping myself with knowledge about cars. And now, my toil won’t be that hard since BuyYourCar offers a variety of cars that one can choose from. Their gallery includes new cars, used cars, car leasing, contract hire, and van leasing. That uniqueness is accompanied by their mode of payment, may it be finance, pay cash, or even lease. The thing that delighted me about the site is its capability to search and enquire from their gallery. It saves me my precious time.

The Wonders of Surigao, Philippines

I have been to this island, specifically the Lake Mainit. But I haven't shared it here yet. This is just a quick post to share the following video as requested by Bonnie Sanchez. Hope this helps.



There are really a lot of wonderful unexplored islands in our country, the Philippines. Sadly, most of us wanted to go somewhere else. Have you seen one of the Amazing Race leg that was taken somewhere in Palawan? Who would have thought that we have a paradise-like place like that? I really love to wander around our country first, before taking on my tour on foreign lands. And Surigao will be a great destination.

Texas Salsa for My Girl

As what I have said in my previous post, my girl loves spicy dishes. Similarly, she loves spicy sauces. She would normally mix hot sauce into any dip we have whenever we dine in at a restaurant. But her love for spices is moderate; nothing to worry about.

She mentioned to me one time that she loves to sprinkle pepper powder in her rice whenever they have their lunch out at Snackaroo. She even requested me to buy her one. And with that, I had found out about Texas Salsa from Loco Cowpoke Salsa Shop. I guess surprising her with a jar of Jalapeno Olives, a combination of Olives and Jalapenos with just enough spice will be a good idea. Or maybe, a Jalapeno Relish will do. But not now, she’s into dieting.

Thumbs up to Loco Cowpoke for offering these stuffs online; where ordering is as easy as 1-2-3. The usual Add to Cart option and Check Out is where the shop sticks to.

Bloggers Event at SM Marilao Foodcourt

It was 18th of August when I received an invitation from Sheryl, PR Manager of SM Marilao to attend a Bloggers Event that will be held August 29 at 1:30PM in SM Marilao Foodcourt. I was hesitant at first. I am really not into these events (until the 29th). But since my girl seem to like to go, I replied with a YES to Ms. Sheryl.

We were late. But it seems like the event had not started yet. We registered our (me and my girl) blogs from the registration table and proceed to the available laptop with internet connection (brought to us by SmartBro). The event mainly concerns bloggers within the vicinity (Bocaue, Balagtas, Marilao, and maybe Meycauayan). And I got the chance to be invited because of my post about SM Marilao Giant Santa Claus '08 (and Sherly did confirm it). The event's purpose is to launch the SM Marilao Foodcourt as a FREE WiFi Hotspot. We got to answer the survey concerning the WiFi connection. We also go to taste delicious food from the Foodcourt. And I have to say, I got really full. There is also a raffle among the bloggers (were only 10 in numbers) for a free EePC laptop. But we were unfortunate to win the raffle. Nonetheless, the event is worthwhile. Will surely attend every blogger event as possible from now on. We do not go home empty-handed (full stomach). SmartBro provide giveaways to all the participants.

To my fellow Bulakeños who drop by SM Marilao, would like to invite you to stay at SM Marilao Foodcourt and enjoy the Free WiFi there. Ü And here you go with the pictures :)

Testing the WiFi that connects as fast as 15 seconds

Chansel Pizza, I had 2 slices :D

The ever famous lechon manok of Baliuag. We oftentimes have this as our dinner back at my girl's house.

Another product of Baliwag Lechon

The Caldareta suits the taste of my girl, a little spicy.

Also this one, she loves squid.

I'm not into sisig, but this one tastes good.

A cup of iced coffee, same taste as that of Brownies'
