Atom Araullo, Gabbi Garcia and Joseph Morong for One GMA

Tuesday, January 02, 2018



If you haven’t been seeing them lately online, then you’re missing a LOT. One GMA just launched three shows set to premiere today and will show every Monday thereafter. These are three online shows that will show exclusively on the GMA Network Facebook page, their Youtube channel and their assets. It stars your favorite Atom Araullo, Gabbi Garcia and Joseph Morong.


Atom Araullo says “Adulting is practicality. It’s about the years when we get bigger responsibilities. How to find a job, how to foster relationships, how to deal with money, in the hope we could figure out things together. I have already made 3 episodes, the first one is moving out, the second is about being friendzoned, the third is what to do when it’s petsa de peligro. It’s about 8-9 minutes, depending on the topic. It’s based on our experience, adults and young adults, it’s online because we want to see people comment and react. We would also like to see anecdotes, from the very serious to the very mundane, it’s a lot, a mix of things not to belittle the tasks we do everyday. Our job requires us to be active online, not to spout wisdom every time but balance it with stuff that matters. These three programs on GMA Network’s Facebook account and Youtube channel, make sure you catch it every Monday at 5PM.”

Gabbi Garcia wants connecting with people and curious about current events accessible online. She mentions “Hashtag Goals with Gabbi Garcia is about make up tutorials, fashion tips, travel, love for the sea and everything that teen girls would do. I get to speak uo my mind and be like Gabbi, not as an artist but a person. For the first one it’s make up tips, very personal tips, so millenials could relate.”


Joseph Morong on the other hand will do Fact or Fake. He’s happy to see that in this show they would be able to verify stories, tell it like a journalist should. He adds “It will be fast paced and witty, we shot our first episode two days ago. We all know fake news, we will define it, we will schedule things as told in this way because millenials have no time. Fake news are lies masking itself as news, it’s a difficult task to attack this but we will bring examples that will separate journalism from it as it is entirely different. We have elections in 2019 and I’m sure it will happen again.”
The online show will premier today, January 2 at 5PM and will show every Monday thereafter. They will be alternating and have banked a couple episodes already. So if you want to see what they have in store for you, like the GMA Network page and subscribe to the GMA Network Youtube channel.

Gift To Self: #SmartiPhoneX

Monday, January 01, 2018



December has been a rollercoaster ride for me. I've had a lot of ups and downs but I don't complain. I work hard and knew that this would be a great time to have a GIFT TO SELF, because I haven't been doing that for the longest time. 

I have been longing to get a phone that would match my needs and to tell you honestly I've been lugging around my coverages using three phones, my old iPhone 5, my iPhone 5S and a crippled ASUS 6 inch Laser. Both my iPhones have already gone bloated on me but still works and all I needed to do was just replace the batteries (thanks to the store I go to in SM San Lazaro) but my ASUS Laser 2 phone showed signs of breaking down as some parts of the screen don't respond to pressing anymore (so I had to install an app just to have a home button). My games there had me worried so I had to put them all in my old iPhone just so I could play. Long story short, the iPhones that I have lasted for years and didn't give me major problems, so when news broke out that there was a new iPhoneX, I had to have one, I knew it was time. 


It was also my time for retention as a postpaid subscriber for Smart. When I heard Smart Communications was releasing it December, I knew I had to get one from them. Their plan was obviously the BEST because if you think about it, they are offering it with a plan for only Php 3,199 a month for 2 years which means I can get this dream phone less than the actual price plus a prepaid plan Php 1,499 that fits my lifestyle (already included in the Php 3,199 price tag). I was wondering what could have prompted them to actually give it away at this price because if you think about it, you'll save thousands of pesos if you buy it from them instead of the Apple Store which priced it at Php 65,000 per unit. That device alone would cost Php 2,700++ a month, a difference of about Php 15,000 if you subtract the plan, now isn't that crazy?


The iPhone X also takes superb photos, live ones and even great videos. I've been using it for a few weeks already and the images just come so real as with the iPhone X. The funny thing is that if you see the shots even without editing you'll already think it's amazing, what more if you touch it a little, people go crazy when they see it.

Now I've got a powerful phone that takes gorgeous photos, ample amount of storage for those videos I have to take plus tons of things that previous iPhones haven't been able to do. They removed the audio jack and kept it with the Lightning cord. They have a special adapter which is included in the box so you can still use the regular earphones if you would need it. Drop tests, depth tests and waterproofing reviews had all of them feel at awe with the iPhone X and I guess this not so common GIFT TO SELF is going to serve me well for years to come. 




If you want to know more about the plan with NO CASHOUT then visit Smart's page for it over at http://smart.com.ph/iPhoneX and thank me later!

It's totally worth it!

A Zoobic Night Safari this Holiday Break

Saturday, December 30, 2017




Oh no, don’t let this long holiday break end without doing something special like this one at Zoobic Night Safari. This thing happens at the Subic Bay Freeport Zone Group 1, Ilanin Forest at the Subic Freeport Zone and will only last until January 6. You won’t see it until March so that’s a long time if you actually miss it. This would be a great opportunity for your kids or lovers to get up close and personal with the cute zoo animals under the dark cold sky.


You’ll be entertained by world class Filipinos and escorted through a night scaped jungle while being guided by kind greyhounds. You’ll see snakes, iguanas, lizards of all kinds in the Serpentarium. You’ll also get to pet some of them through a trail and see how they move while living through the night as some of these guys are nocturnal, including Tigers in their own habitat!

You’ll also see lions, crocodiles, birds and other animals while they go about their everyday chores, not usually seen in the Zoo during daytime. You will also be treated to a world class show, cast of Filipinos so you get a dose of culture even if you’re in a predatory mood.

Entrance fees only costs Php 895 for adults, Php 795 for kids 3-4 ft. It already includes dinner, but if you opt not to have food just get 100 off of that price. If you are bringing some kids shorter than that, they get in for FREE. Now isn’t that a nice deal?

Fun with Fans of Gabbi Garcia

Friday, December 29, 2017



It's been a while since we've seen Gabbi Garcia, I think the last time was when she was having lunch with her family at Rockwell at the Grove a couple months back. Of course we've seen her in different projects on GMA too and to say the least, she's been very busy because aside from the numerous fashion spreads, she's got an international commercial, several guestings and an upcoming show this 2018 which all GabRu fans should watch out for. It was also her birthday a couple weeks ago and on this event, she chose to spend it with some of her dearest supporters, her fans who have been there for her since day 1. 


The event was hosted by good looking Joshua Jacobe of GMA Artist Center. I could feel he's also a bit captivated by Gabbi's beauty, I mean who wouldn't right? Hehe.


Gabbi was pretty much overwhelmed seeing some of her fans who came all the way from far flung provinces just to see her that afternoon. She couldn't help but get emotional hearing stories from her fans who took time, spend their own money just to support her in her current shows and projects. We also got to ask her a few questions during her birthday event at CAVE in Tomas Morato.


Gabbi would like to thank her sponsors Pantene, Goldilocks and GMA Artist Center for helping her get in touch with her fans that afternoon. I only wish her the best as she faces the challenges of 2018, and hope all her career choices be a smart one because she deserves to be happy.
