What's up Philippines

The first batch of Ms. Earth Philippines candidates was launched at Yoshinoya, Robinsons Galleria branch. Philippines still has a lot to offer, our beauty is unique and caring for Mother Earth is still an advocacy we must continue to pursue. Filipina's should remember that our beauty is not defined by our skin color, I've seen true blue morenas on this first batch and hoping more of them on the next ones, we shouldn't be ashamed of our natural skin color, it has been one of our greatest assets in international pageants, go Philippines! As bloggers, we were also given the opportunity to choose our Top 3 picks, it was hard, so we can't imagine the work of the judges come coronation night. So, excited to know our Top 3 from this Batch? Congratulations: (In no particular order ha) 1. Ms. Villasis- Pangasinan 2. Ms. Kidapawan City 3. Ms. Pasig City

MANILA, April 14, 2015 –  The path to greatness is at hand as global technology innovator LG Electronics is set to globally launch its much-awaited flagship LG G4 on April 28 and 29 of this year. With G4’s predecessor, LG G3, bagging the “Best Smartphone Award” at the Mobile World Congress just a month ago, LG has its fans gripping at the edge of their seats, leaving only subtle hints on what the newest smartphone superstar has in store. Based on the global teaser that LG released, the G4 is set to change the game aesthetically. The invite creates the impression that the G4 will drive away from its signature sleek metallic look and advance to the sophisticated feel of stitched leather. What can also be taken from the global invite is that LG G4’s rear camera will be the first to sport an aperture level of f/1.8, the lowest aperture set for any mobile device to date. For the aspiring and avid phone-tographers, this innovative technology will let the lens take in more light, leading ...

Kapitolyo Pasig is now known as a place for people who would love to have some food trips with different variations, We live within the area and has been seeing the developments and changes for the past years and I must admit, it gets exciting whenever I get to see something new every time I get the chance to explore the neighborhood. Locavore is one of our newest discoveries, located at Brixton street, near Pioneer Center, one would think and question why it is not located at the main food street that Kapitolyo was first known for, but they actually have a good location, a very wide area for parking space, not too much noise from cars and other vehicles since the road is kinda private plus having to party without disturbing other residents and establishments. The place is also spacious enough to accommodate those who want to have a peaceful dinner and chat on the side, and also a place for those who would like a few drinks and smoking area to go together with their meals and natural a...

Moshi Moshi! I think it means hello, and growing up, that is the only Japanese word that I am familiar with. In all honesty I am not really into Japanese food, when Ramen hit the Metro I was one who of maybe a few didn't bother to try, I am okay with cup noodles and instant one's that can be cooked in just less than 5 minutes, and also I was afraid to spend my money for Ramen and would eventually go home feeling upset. So when I was invited to have a taste of an authentic Ramen from Ramen Daisho, I immediately said yes. Finally I can get to try a Ramen that is cooked from scratch (not instant haha) and having it for free like free trial kind is of course a bonus. Ramen Daisho is actually one jeepney or fx taxi from our home, they are located at Shaw Blvd., near Pure Gold Shaw. Upon entering, you will be greeted by the staff and it is not a Moshi moshi kind of greeting, I am not sure if they are required to learn the Japanese language before they were hired but oh well their gre...
