Derrick Monasterio Celebrates Birthday with QC Typhoon Victims

We went to celebrate the birthday of hunky Kapuso actor Derrick Monasterio in a community located at Tatalon, Quezon City. It's one of the most depressed areas in the metro and yes, I have to say there were shanties made of light materials which made most of the community's populace. They were also typhoon victims and I know the place is usually flooded when it rains hard in QC. I haven't been to places like these for a while now so I was a little shocked, but kept it to myself. I guess, just like any other individual, Derrick feels that no matter what they do or do not have... they have the right to be happy. So he went there to share his blessings and entertain them too, rightfully to which... he was surprised to see a lot of them that afternoon in the Multipurpose hall to celebrate with him. 

To host the games, we had Tess Bomb taking care of that. She was really fun and spontaneous as usual. She was really fun and the mom's and teens who were there really enjoyed her antics. Derrick's Mom was also there to say thanks to everyone who went there. She also shared some things about saving up for the rainy days and making sure they don't forget to assure their families of the right education as it's the only way they can ensure their future.

Derrick's Mom wished him the best for his career and continue to help people no matter how big or small that is.

Great Prices On Cosmetics and Perfumes: Beauty Scents

We went all the way down south and felt the VIP experience they were promising us as the first ever Beauty Scents Outlet Store in Paseo de Sta. Rosa, Laguna. I frequent that same commercial area if I'm in the lookout for shoes and items that they actually sell at a fraction of a cost. Now, there's more reason to do it because some of the world's well loved perfumes, colognes and make up will be housed in a 210 square meter shop on the outskirts of Nuvali. What more could you ask for?

Their Executives, beauty queens, artists, Manila's best beauty and lifestyle bloggers all attended the event. The first branch is located in Malaysia, they put the second store here for a reason because it's a little far from the metro but easy enough to drive to and be with the best brands in that same location. After the ribbon cutting, we did the next best thing to enjoy the perfumes inside the store... we shopped for our own favorite perfumes!

People rushed inside the store looking for their favorite perfumes, some really good selections but totally affordable.

I couldn't really help but notice the interiors of the store because they probably have thought about making it really chic, it's a mix of natural and industrial. The cold steel and wood, painted black and stained, it was like a warehouse in the middle of a shopping district. They made an effort to make this a unique place, wide and spacious so you can expect they can accommodate a lot of people even on peak hours. During the event, they even let us try facials, spas, makeovers and a lot more right at the cosmetics section at the bottom of the stairs.

Western Digital Releases WD TV in the Philippines

I think I've seen one of these in Greenhills a couple of years ago and I know there have been multiple upgrades and advancements in these boxes especially since it is WD TV. I've worked with other brands and cable corporations who have something similar to this but still, WDTV presents more premium functions and features that you won't normally see in other media players. Now, Western Digital just announced the release of the WDTV Personal Edition. This means that any other media whether you have it on your PC, Laptop or USB's. the WDTV Personal Edition would be able to play it as long as you have it on your network. This is also Wifi enabled so you don't need to be connected via ethernet or directly wired to the box itself. For me, that's totally convenient.

Mr. Jim Welsh the Executive Vice President for WD Content Solutions Business and Worldwide Sales says that "The new WDTV Personal Edition would make it seamless for anyone to play in a multitude of screen sizes and get them to play a variety of personal videos, photos and music. The quality will be superb and it can support various video file formats such as MKV, MP4, AVI, WMV, MOV and a whole lot more." You can also use Western Digital's array of external or portable drives like the WD My Cloud - Personal Cloud which I reviewed a few days ago. You can basically take charge with the kind of entertainment you want on your living room, you choose your own applications, you can stream HD videos too via Miracast, Youtube, Hulu Plus, Vudu + a lot more while playing it on your hand held device or HD TV's. 

 

The WD TV is currently sold in the Philippines through its official distributor Iontech Inc and EA Global Supply Chain Solutions Inc. It's suggested retail price is around 4,890 pesos while the WD TV Remote app for smartphones or mobile handsets is free on the App Store and Google Play Store. You should check it out!

Smart Infinity Brings CHICAGO "The Musical" in Manila

Oh it's CHICAGO!

When I heard the news that a world class show was in town, I had to get my hands on the keyboard and had to tell you this. If you loved the film adaptation last 2002 (which would probably make you feel a little old seeing that year) and adore the stories of Roxie Hart (played by Renee Zellweger) and Velma Kelly (played by the timeless Catherine Zeta Jones), then you are in for a treat an all star American cast will be performing here in the Philippines come December. Smart Infinity will bring the real deal theatrical show CHICAGO to Manila, but that's just the first good news!

This six time Tony Award winning musical will be made available first and exclusive to Smart Infinity subscribers. That's what you call exclusivity. That's what you call a huge perk! This means that before the public would be able to get tickets, Smart Infinity subscribers would be the first who would be able to get their hands on them. Aside from that, every new approved Smart Infinity plan application from now until September 8, 2014 will come with VIP tickets to the musical on top of the gadgets and services that come with it. 

Ms. Julie Carceller the Head of the Smart Infinity Business Group at Smart says “Just like the successful local runs of other world class spectacles such as "Cats",  "Mamma Mia", "The Phantom of the Opera" and the well loved "Wicked", bringing "Chicago" to the Philippines is again a very special gift for our Smart Infinity subscribers." 

Now if this was everything that they have, I'm definitely gonna want to have a subscription going. What perfect timing too that Chicago is going to be here right? Well, you better start checking out the Smart Infinity Plans here and see if it fits your budget. I've seen some of you spend a ton in prepaid accounts and don't even get the gadgets that you should have been getting if you were in a postpaid plan. See the difference and think Smart if you want to get more in plans that can get you to live more. Ticket selling will be open to the public on September 9. The show will run from December 2 up until the 21st on the brand new Solaire Theater! That's right after Celine Dion's concert if I'm not mistaken. All worthy to be watched! See you on December!
