Friends with Benefits

Some of us might wonder as to what it means the terms “Friends with Benefits.” I myself don’t know exactly about its meaning. But this movie starred by Justin Timberlake (who played Dylan) and Mila Kunis (who played Jamie) give me somehow an idea. Friends with Benefits is a an American romantic-comedy film of 2011 and was released last July 2011. However, upon watching the trailer of the movie, it thought it is only about friends doing things that a couple would do without strings attached! But at the end of the movie, I was amazed that the movie is somehow romantic. I mean, it didn’t disappoint me. Really. The movie do have a little bit sexy and of course a bit of comedy. It is not boring. It’s about two friends who went through break up...

The King's Speech!

I think a lot of us have been very familiar with the true story of the British Royal Monarch “The King’s Speech.” But for me, I will never know the real value of this movie until the time I watched it in my laptop last October 24. It was played in the big screen in United Kingdom on the 7th of January of this year (2011). My first impression of the movie before I finally decided to watch it is that is some kinda boring. I mean just a typical movie, it is expected to have more conversation, more on the talk and not on the action or something. My interest on movies is more on action or thriller done by Angelina Jolie, Uma Thurman, Megan Fox and other Hollywood actresses that always give a knock-out.  King George VI      ...

P25 worth of Enjoyment @ SM Film Fiesta!

Now a days watching movie on cinemas and theaters would cost a lot of money. Sometimes, it is a pain in the pocket! Almost four years ago, I can still remember my experience of watching a movie in a cinema for only 60 pesos and that was the comedy love story movie of Judy Ann and Ryan Agoncillo entitled “Sakal, Kasali, Saklolo.” That was December of 2007.  Today, it would cost like around 130-400 pesos in SM cinemas. A simple 2D movie would cost a range of 130.00 – 220.00 pesos, 3D cost 250.00 -350.00 pesos and for IMAX or 4D, the range is 350.00 – 450.00 pesos.  But wait a minute, let’s give ourselves a break! There is a new promo at SM Cinema. This is called as “Php25 Film Fiesta” @ SM City Cebu.  I think it started like 2...

My First Experience with my First Job!

My current profession now is teaching. Now, let me share with you the good side of my experience in a Corporate World. ;) I have worked before in a corporate world under the Program Control Services previously known as Project Management Office at Accenture before. I still remember some of the core values of the company, which is ‘Respect for Individual’, ‘Integrity’, ‘Best People’ and ‘Stewardship.’ Well, all I can say with the company is that it has excellent people, management and HR relations. I mean, it has a very high standard to its employee’s professionalism and let their people feel that they matter to the company. I even experienced when that time I am newly hired, there will be almost always a celebration. It could be a power buffet...

The Shabu-shabu and Grill Experience!

What’s on your mind when you hear the word “Shabu-shabu”? It could mean the other way around if you’re not familiar with it and might think that it is a kind of prohibited drugs! LOL! :) But hey, it is not! To tell you, shabu-shabu is a very healthy food. It comes with a variety of versions; it could be Japanese, Taiwanese or Chinese. Last Sunday, October 18, 2011, we came across a shabu-shabu and grill restaurant in Pusok, Lapu-lapu City. The name of the restaurant is “Kaohsiung Shabu-shabu and Grill Restaurant.” The food is a Taiwanese cuisine. We thought of eating there at dinner time by Saturday. But suddenly the grill was fully occupied and we have to reserve ourselves by the next day, that was a Sunday, 6PM. The ambiance of the restaurant...
