My "Fast and the Furious" Crush Paul Walker Dies

Indeed, the first day of December 2013 is not all that happy for the "Fast and Furious" fans out there and most especially me. 

The "Fast and Furious" cast Paul Walker dies in a car crash today in California at the age of 40.

I fell in love with Paul Walker with his role as he was so dashing in the movie "The Fast and Furious". I love his role there as someone who would go along way and prove to everybody his love for his girl.

As i write this blog, I'm on verge of tears. I cannot imagine that i won't see him anymore in the future Fast and Furious movies.

It was also heart-breaking for us Filipinos because according to news he is on his way to a charity event held for the typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan victims here in the Philippines.

Paul Walker -You are forever LOVED!!!

To his family and loved ones...

He will be forever in our hearts....

For the meantime, will watch his movies and cry :(

Epic Halloween at Solaire Resorts and Casino

Last August 31, 2013, I had the most " First and Epic" Halloween party ever!!! Yes it was my first ever! And who would have thought that it would be at Solaire Resort Casino and Hotel.



I actually don't have the slightiest plan of attending one that night. while everyone was busy thinking what costume to wear, I was busy thinking if I should be busy like all the rst who are all fussing about their costumes.


But those last minute thingies changed as that afternoon, a friend told me that she was going to a Halloween party. I said why is everybody busy thinking of going to a Halloween Party. And since I missed this girl, I said why not?



I missed Phylicia, yeah her name is Phylicia and she  asked me if I can go with her at Solaire Resort Casino and Hotel for this year's Halloween Party, "The AFter Glow Halloween Party".

Solaire Resort's theme this year is the Neon Days of the 80's and 90's. And with that being said guest of this year's Halloween Party should be dressed in anything but neon.

I don't have any neon outfit but that didn't stopped me from going. All I know is that I have that "party" itch and I was so excited to celebrate Halloween with my sweetie friend Phylicia.



Lo and behold,I guess there was no need to drag myself because going to Solaire was so comfy.Comfy it is because I was so lucky there was a "free" shuttle going to Solaire located at Theater Mall Greenhills.Solaire member guests has the privilege to go to Solaire for free if they availed and registered as members of Solaire.



I came around a little after 9pm, and the party had just started,enough for me and Phylicia to find us cocktail table near the center of Eclipse Bar.

Even though we were the youngest in the crowd, we enjoyed every bit of since the band performing that night was playing cool 80's music plus we get to meet awesome peeps from Norway who has to say lots of good things about our country and our people.




And what it made doubly awesome we won "Fresh" Buffet passports good for 2 just by tweeting posting via instagram. And my pretty friend Phylicia won as best-dressed that night!

And to our surprise, seasoned Rn'B band "South Border" performed and boy did they sang my favorite song, TREASURE by Bruno Mars. This got us dance our night away.

Kudos to Solaire Casino and Hotel's events team for putting up a good show.


SCHICK winds down Suaveng Ahit, Gwapong Schick Barangay Tour

Pasig City gives premium on the cleanliness of the community and the welfare of its residents. SCHICK’s advocacy campaign, Suaveng Ahit, Gwapong Schick Barangay Tour, found this for a fact as it reached its last leg on September 30 in Barangay Kalawaan, Pasig City, which was hailed as “Pinakagwapong Barangay” together with the dance diva, Regine Tolentino.
Schick, one of the country’s most trusted brands for effective grooming, started this advocacy barangay tour in December 2012. It aims to promote proper personal grooming and also cleanliness in the community, for the ‘Gwapong Mamamayan’ which is about personal grooming, Schick provided free haircut and shaving services to the residents of the areas we visited. Thousands of samples of Schick Exacta2 Disposables were given away.  For Gwapong Syudad, we have worked with the Barangay of the community and promoted maintaining cleanliness of the surroundings.   The barangay caravan got under way first to Salamalabanan Subdivision in Imus Cavite, then of Antipolo, Muntinlupa, Novaliches, Caloocan, and Pasig City. The caravan held several activities such as three-on-three basketball game, a free-throw and half-court shootout, and a dance showdown that promoted sportsmanship among the participants.

Barangay Kalawaan, Pasig City, was awarded the best-looking barangay because of its liveliness despite its dense population. Its busy streets proved that the barangay was a winner, together with its officials who helped achieve peace and order as well as healthy lifestyle.
“Unang-una nagpapasalamat po ako sa programang SCHICK dahil kami ang napilibilang Pinaka-gwapong Barangay,” said Barangay Kalawaan Captain Jaime “Jimmy” Lee. “Maraming tao ang natulungan at nakinabang dito sa aming barangay lalo na ang SAKTODA, added Lee.
Schick has always believed that being well groomed boosts not just physical but also mental wellness, and hence makes for a more confident community.
“We plan to do this event through our distributors across Philippines and have their own mini barangay tour of the Suaveng Ahit, Gwapong Schick,” said stated SCHICK Marketing Manager Cara Ramirez-Tecson. “We believe in its advocacy of promoting proper personal grooming while ensuring that we keep the community in mind as well when it comes to wellness and cleanliness. This activity also enables us to improve our distribution in areas we have opportunities since it includes merchandising blitz and sari-sari promotions that help our brand, Schick be more accessible to our consumers.
