We were asked a couple of times a few nights ago about our Max's story. I was a little dumbfounded but learned that they've actually got a point. In my calculation, I have done about 12 weddings, with me as the ring bearer and coin bearer, dressed in silly old english outfits, because my Mom has 13 siblings, and I have about countless number of cousins who found me cute to do this deed in their wedding. Not to mention the press conferences, birthdays and special occasions we always do there. We all have our own Max's story, but during this event, we're celebrating Max's birthday. Yes ladies and gentlemen, Max's is celebrating their 70th year!
From their humble beginnings as a go to place for expats in the 1940's and to a full time business in 1945, Max's has stayed a family owned business til now. They are also hiring people from the relatives of their original people and have continued to help other businesses grow. They also now own a huge hotel in Roces Avenue called Meranti Hotel. Here's a small video I made about the event.
I was with a few entertainment press and bloggers earlier for the press conference of Ms. Regine Velasquez Alcasid as she continues to promote "Regine... at the Theater" which will happen in Solaire this November 6, 7, 20, 21 at 8PM. Her special guests include Aicelle Santos, Jonalyn Viray and Audie Gemora. Although when we asked, she said that Aicelle and Jonalyn will perform in separate dates whilst Audie will be singing on all of them and will constitute different songs in this concert not entirely concentrating with Theater songs. Although there will be songs paying homage to local and international theater acts, she'll still be singing a few expected songs that her fans will surely enjoy.
Part of the questions thrown at her by the press was about her Mom's fascination about Aldub and how she's totally okay with Paolo Ballesteros impersonating her.She says what Paolo is doing isn't something new as there have been several acts and people who have done it before, and she takes what he's doing very flattering and not something to frown about.
Aside from that, she's very thankful about what Aldub has done for her Mother because the phenomenon has really kept her Mom happy. As you know it's not difficult to lose Mang Gerry (Regine's Dad) and Regine's mom gets very entertained by the pair whenever she sees them on TV or when Regine and her siblings got their Mom tickets to the Aldub Tamang Panahon event in Philippine Arena last weekend. Pay close attention to her statements on the video (almost last part) and see how thankful she also is to Ms. Malou who got her tickets to the show in spite of a sold out crowd.
By the way, for those who are also excited about Regine... at the Theater concert this November, they won't be selling tickets on the venue and will exclusively be doing it through www.smtickets.com and its outlets inside SM. It won't be available anywhere else so if you haven't bought tickets yet, now is the time to panic! LOL! Ms. Regine Velasquez Alcasid promises a couple of surprises that you'll love once you watch the show. Now that's super great!
I've been eagerly waiting for this piece of hardware since it's announcement and good thing that the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus is finally arriving in Manila courtesy of our friends from Smart. Yes, the country's biggest network will offer this and you can register starting November 6 through their iPhone site http://www.smart.com.ph/iphone. I've seen it personally and it'll somehow change the way you see the iPhone. It has changed just about everything and also introduce the brand new tech 3D touch. It gives the user third dimension options and make you the user take advantage of that.
The Rose Gold iPhone6s and the Samsung Note 5 side by side
The one I saw was also in Rose Gold, ladies would drool over this unique color Apple offers as it's very trendy. Judging by the people who saw this on my Facebook timeline, they do find it very nice much like its predecessors but more so because of its attractive look. It's also very light as compared to the iPhone 5/5S models but still built tough with the iPhone6S' alloy 7000 series aluminum. It's also available in Space Gray, Silver and Gold. It also works much like a desktop computer as it has 64 bit architecture, 70% faster CPU, and 90% higher GPU that games would be totally smooth. The camera also can take 12MP shots easily, 4K rich videos and live photos of which you can take a couple of seconds recorded before that shot happens. The Touch ID also is faster, making it easier to purchase apps, unlock your phone without the need to press codes on the phone when you need it. Best of all, it's going to be better if you're connected to SMART's network so you've got content at your fingertips, whenever, wherever!
