it was a good morning opener to know that Judy Ann Santos is now -- MRS. Ryan Agoncillo! the two had tied the knot this morning at 7 attended by exclusively close friends and relatives. a TOTALLY UNANNOUNCED event for the rest of us who are waiting.

Sighted at the wedding were Regine Velasquez, Ogie Alcasid, Paolo Abrera, Suzy Entrata, Sharon Cuneta and husband Senator Francis Pangilinan.

Security at the provincial church was tight and no media was allowed to enter the premises and cover the occasion.

WATTA TEMPURA! bloggers event

Yehey and Tokyo Tokyo invited us to experience:

and we had another adventure!
24 bloggers assembled at Tokyo Tokyo, Trinoma to hunt 2 tiger prawns going around the mall. the challenge is to take a group picture with two prawn celebrities, LePRAWN James and PRAWNis Hilton which can be found using the following clues to track them:


the PINK Team consisted of chris, hannah, sire, flowell and brian with a marshall from Yehey. i think the race was so infavor for us that's why we finished first on the race. LePRAWN James is found at Time Zone but there is a slight mistake for identifying it with another prawn. PRAWNis Hilton is just busy sipping her coffee from an even bigger venti-sized Starbucks cup.

we finished all tasks before the time limit of 30mins and fortunate enough to get into first place. the whole challenge is once again fun, thanks Yehey.


after the event and some photo ops of course, the GM of Tokyo Tokyo, told us more about these huge prawns made into tempura claiming that the rights of having the biggest tempura recall to Tokyo Tokyo.

Blue Water Day Spa Capitol Hills

thanks to Francis Simisim for taking us to one-of-a-kind relaxation experience at Blue Water Day Spa. at first it was the Spa Theater at the Greenhills branch, now it's time for the Ohmski invasion to the Capitol Hills Branch.
away from the busy streets of the city, a sanctuary of peace and tranquility along the slopes of Capitol Hills, Quezon City is the Blue Water Capitol Hills branch. you are surrounded by green grass and nice view of Capitol Hills. a very peaceful area and Blue Water Day Spa is really apt to be placed here.

finding in the area are blogmates james, marc, gail, earth, and badet, all of us to enjoy a different relaxation experience. we are asked to choose between a foot massage or a Swedish massage to try out. of course, i answered the Swedish massage to take out all the stress throughout my body.




as with Blue Water's known reputation, all facilities are clean and well-maintained. from the bath room to the massage area, actually i couldn't say anything because i was in awe of the unusual feeling that Blue Water Day Spa is giving me. the sauna is good, the shower is clean, don't worry if you don't have extra things, they give you bath essentials before having the massage.

the massage went well. my masseuse did a good work with all the pressure points of my body. i almost fell asleep.

the experience ended with a nice and healthy bunch of fruits and tea.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Trailer and Posters



Warner Bros. Pictures has released the latest trailer for the next Harry Potter film, HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE, starring Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson and Jim Broadbent. Together with the latest trailer also comes the unveiling of the four latest banner artworks which features Harry and Professor Dumbledore, Hermione and Professor Slughorn, Ron and Ginny, and Draco and Professor Snape.

Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort's defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane's chocolates! And then there's Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

WATCH THE TRAILER HERE

HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE will be released nationwide across the Philippines on July 16th, by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.

MALAPIT NA SYA!!!

Twenty Plus is One: Splash Island wars

it was the morning of April 16 2009 when the whole office of Beginnings at 20 Plus went to Splash Island in Biñan, Laguna. days prior to our trip, we were already assigned to our teams namely: Blue, Aqua, Red and Green. the team leaders were pointed out and on alert on what's going to happen with the whole event. as expected, it was a competition between teams trying to outplay each other with fun-filled games and experiences in Splash Island, facilitated with Global Gutz.
Splash Island is now managed by Global Gutz now adding more attraction than just the regular water fun to enjoy the summer. the new team building facilities were taken advantage by our company for us not only to have just a regular summer outing but more of gaining more friends in the office for a better working environment.

THE GAMES
Cheering Competition
it was like Olympics when we started with the cheering competition. as for my team's first activity, we have to know each other first. we acknowledged everyone's names to get acquainted. three big names are in my team: the president, the production head and our department manager. it was a hard task for me to get my guts up and motivate my superiors. but the responsibility and belief was already put on my head and all i have to do is do my job as their leader.
a variation of concepts came up for the cheering competition. some spread from circles and deliver their chants and build recall. Blue team got the first place in the cheering competition.

The Bamboo Relay
the goal is to race against the other team with a bamboo. only 5 players per team will round the post and complete 3 rounds at the least possible time. two games sets are set between Blue team vs Aqua team and Green team vs Red team. on the first set, Blue won over Aqua and Green beat the Red team on the second set.
The Crocodile Pit
objective is to transfer all members of the team to the other side of a 2-meter long mock-pit using 2 crates, 2 wood planks and a thin stick. imagine that there are crocodiles at the distance so if anything touches the pit, we have to start all over again. we gained progress are the first attempt but we failed. though we haven't got the first place, this activity really made the team closer and we trusted each other more.
Trolley Relay
after the mind-boggling Crocodile Pit, we had another relay. it's like skiing with 4 other teammates racing against another team. we won this time with the smooth cooperation of my teammates and focus on the goal.

Paintball
after a yummy lunch, and by that time we are really getting stinky, we had real war going on -- with Paintball of course. this new facility on Splash Island has made a chance for the other teams throw their wrath against us after their defeats. (lol) besides, Green Team leads the whole event.
each player is given 50 paintballs and complete battle gear. the battle took 3 hours under the heat of the sun. i got hit on the first set of battle on the wrist and it didn't hurt at first. it's as they say, a mosquito bite. but you will endure the pain as the time flies.

it was like a war on terror as my officemates look like the Abu Sayyaf Gang and MILF troops.

finally we get on the water. it was like Amazing Race in which we have to try all the giant slides on Splash Island. first we tried the Balsa River and tried all, one after the other. we finished second in the race but adding up all the scores from the other events, we came 1st!

my favorite was the Magellan's drop where we slide down using a rubber mat. here's a sample video of us going down the Magellan's Drop:


the Green Team dominated almost all events. next is the Blue Team which is a close contender to us, then the Red team and finally the Aqua team to wrap it up. we had a little reporting about the whole activity and it seemed like everybody enjoyed.

Brangelina to adopt a Pinoy

well, i want to be that kid (probably most people wanted it too). but i wonder how will they choose the next child? we here in the Philippines are seeing the reality in almost every corner. where will they get it? the riversides? the slums? i was really surprised that they even considered the Philippines to adopt the next kid. but in my belief, i don't know if i would be happy or pity for the biological parents of that child. true, that him or her will be given a better life, imagine your parents are uber rich and exceptional actors. the Hercules and Venus of Hollywood, ergo, the most gorgeous people on the planet! everybody wants to be them. i hope no baby-makers would take advantage of this. the couple can do it. and i wonder what would be the name and what's the bid for their first pictures together?

but one thing is for sure, i will be looking forward to see them come here.

a new feel on dining

rustic furniture gives me that warm feeling and takes me to another dimension. the fun of watching stars in the clear night while sipping a hot cocoa and eating corndogs.

it's like dining on the outdoors. with that rustic look of wood and a little red, it feels like you're in a good desert dining experience as you see in the movies. it's also good to have a steamy stew with beans and steak and have cowboy music as you have your loved ones over to enjoy a special meal.


let me share with you a piece of furniture that i found while browsing on the internet. may be this will give you an interest in choosing your next home furniture. it includes:

* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Table Dimensions: 72" W x 42" D 29" H
* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Table Quantity: 1
* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Cabinet Dimensions: 39" W x 20" D 46" H
* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Cabinet Quantity: 1
* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Chair Dimensions: 17" W x 16" D 38" H
* Eastern Red Cedar Dining Chair Quantity: 4
* Eastern Red Cedar Captains Chair Dimensions: 20" W x 20" D 38" H
* Eastern Red Cedar Captains Chair Quantity: 2
* Fully hand crafted.
* Most items in stock for quick delivery.
* Artwork, rug, plant, and dinnerware are not included

for $3,584.99, you might be having the same dreams that i have shared above. why don't you give it a try?

Blue Water Day Spa re: Marian-Karylle issue

a lot of articles have been saying that Karylle replaces Marian Rivera as endorser of Blue Water Day Spa. some rumors have been associating the Dingdong-Karylle break up and that more people became pro-Karylle rather than Marian. Piolo Pascual joins Marian in the current campaign.

articles from:
Pinoyparazzi
MarianRiveraInfo
MarianRiveraInfo - wont replace marian

however, the management of Blue Water Day Spa has released an official statement regarding the issues that have been lurking in the internet:
this is the official statement that we wanted to clear with the issue on Marian Rivera / Karylle. This is in response to statement that was made by Popoy Caritativo to the press (4/4/09) in the past few weeks.

"Every year, we change our endorsers for BlueWater Day Spa and it remains the company's perogative who we choose to represent as our endorser. As of the issue of who dropped whom, there were NO negotiations for renewal with Ms. Rivera or her representatives that ever took place."
Blue Water Day Spa also reminds us of the still-ongoing BLOGGERS CONTEST on iendorser.com to enjoy a free spa at the Capitol Hills Branch.

fight my brute!

there's a plurk riot going on! hannah shared this online game if you would call it a game that lets you fight other users. you can challenge random people and all you have to do is sit back and watch the fight.

the characters are like that ragnarok creatures. im still wondering why i'm able to acquire special weapons. hehe... you can find other brutes who challenged you into a fight and discover who beat you or the ones who've lost over you.

there's no long registration needed and a match last for less than a minute. you can immediately get into the next level and challenge more brutes. just continue to fight against other brutes and watch yourself win or lose.

so, you can try to fight me. talk about boredom at work.

i lost my phone

minsan napaka-clumsy ko talaga. minsan kasi preoccupied ako sa pakikinig ng radyo kaya dko na iniintindi ang ibang bagay. sa pagiging busy ko, kahit pagsara ng bag e nakakalimutan ko.

kanina lang nangyari ito. at nagamit ko pa nga syang ipang-text habang nasa byahe. sa harapan ako ng service nkasakay kaya d ako masyado nagaalala.

sa kung sino man ang nakakita ng N3530 unit ko, light green color, medyo luma na at nagloloko, SUN network (tinext ko po un kanina using my other number), sana po ay makipag-cooperate kayo na maibalik sakin yun. importante na rin po sakin un. wag nyo napong pag-interesan na pagkakitaan kasi pa-obsolete na yon. kahit ung sim e importante po talaga sakin at sayang din ung sa mga contacts ko na nandun.

sana sa shuttle service lang nalaglag para may babalikan ako bukas or sa monday. thanks po.

consider to live in Arizona

the summer heat is on! currently hear in the Philippines, the temperature rose to 78 degrees. perfect for basking under the sun. but it is always safe to bring your sunblock and other protections like sunglasses and hat or more effective, an umbrella to escape the scorching heat of summer.

the weather is also fine for earthly activities like gardening, walking the dog, etc. and speaking of vacation, an unusual tour to Arizona is a great option. with the view of the Grand Canyon, it will be an awesome place to live.

if you want to reside in Arizona, Scottsdale real estate would be glad to help you out looking for a perfect spot. the tropic weather just like here in the Philippines, although it's a little hotter now, will be a great factor in doing the activities i've mentioned above.
