The 60th Grammy Awards on JackTV

If you haven't slept yet, well here's more reason to wake up early. Tomorrow January 29 at 8:30AM in the Philippines, the 60th Grammy Awards is going to be broadcasted via sattelite at everybody's favorite crazy network, JackTV. 

Hosting the show is crazy person, James Corden and I think he'll be doing some carpool karaoke. Though I'm excited to see who will win in some of the categories. As we know, we'll probably see some bits of Despacito, Jay-Z, Lorde, Bruno Mars and a lot of others. If they perform though that will be another story, because I heard Kesha, Lady Gaga, Elton John, Miley Cyrus, Sam Smith, and the whole parade of artists that would really be nice to see on this Cable channel. 

It starts 4:30PM Pacific so that's 8:30AM Manila time with all the red carpet premieres in between that will probably shock you because it's their 60th of course.

Jodi, Robin, Richard in New Afternoon Show Before Showtime

Leo, Martin, Mona and Lisa. These are just names to you now but as soon as it airs on ABSCBN this coming Monday, you’ll love each of their characters as portrayed by Robin Padilla, Richard Yap and Jodi Sta. Maria. This is called SANA DALAWA ANG PUSO (I wish I had 2 hearts) and will be the afternoon offering right before Showtime on the kapamilya channel.

Robin plays Leo, a man who takes odd jobs for a living. Although poor, falls madly in love with rich beauty diva Lisa of the Loriano Group of Companies (played by Jodi)... who was in a supposed arranged marriage with Martin Co who later finds himself a poor barrio girl who looks exactly like Lisa but is named Mona, a chicken farmer. Will their lives intertwine? Will love be good for these four people? How are they related? You have to watch the first episode tomorrow on ABSCBN.

Jodi says “I am personally very excited to see this, this is fun, you’ll learn a lot of things, sometimes very romantic and I hope you get to watch it. The postponement had nothing to do with Robin but our creative team had to do revisions with the script and characters. We were not ready yet last August but this is good now. There will be 4 characters tomorrow and I believe they will be in love with Martin and Leo, you can’t compare then because they have different stories that should be appreciated by people.”

Richard Yap adds “We have been gone for a while but I hope people would go back to this time slot, hopefully the same people who watched us will get to see us again. My character is different now, I had to reinvent myself to be this character, I have long lines and I should have asked something like a man of few words like Robin.”

Robin says “To belong here is really but an honor for me, I am a fan of their show in the past and now I’m with them in the series. ABSCBN was a bit behind schedule and our schedules got mixed up between this and a movie we tried to make in between. They are bringing in a show about love, so it’s light and very Filipino. It was just a matter of timing I guess. My two movies were postponed (by Vidanes) and we did this instead. I asked ABSCBN to just make my character to be as close as possible with me, they agreed.”

The show also stars Christopher De Leon, Bobot Mortiz, Alma Moreno, Nikki Valdez, Bayani Agbayani, Ryan Bang, Ylona Garcia, Buboy Garrovillo, Kitkat Favia, and a whole lot more. Again it starts tomorrow January 29 after showtime!

The PSI Lifestyle Hub in Quezon City

Got invited to the PSI Lifestyle Hub in Quezon City. It's pretty near my place and it sits right across my old school Trinity University of Asia at the ground floor of The Garden Heights Condominium. I'm pretty familiar with this area because I spent all of my highschool years here. It's bustling with SME's, hospitals, new restaurants, malls but I think it's a pretty nice place to put up a business that would cater to a niche market. It's me and you, the millenials, the xennials, Gen X and Y who by stroke of luck will get to see the new PSI Lifestyle Hub. Here's a short tour :)

I enjoyed knowing that there’s now a store that would cater to big men like me and sell them at a fair price.

If you’ve got a craving for Montaño Sardines, or a health freak looking for Benevita Coconut products, or finding a big guy’s outfit at Perfect 10, finding the best London and Korean made stuff from London Cosmetics Manila, or school/office supplies from Chubby Bunny, PSI Lifestyle Hub would be your destination of choice.

Congratulations and again, for those who would want to see the products personally or talk business, please visit them at PSI Lifestyle Hub. It is right across Trinity University of Asia and St. Lukes Hospital.

You may also send your inquiries at https://www.facebook.com/PSILifestyleHub/ Facebook page because they’re ready to answer if you have questions about the products they offer. I’ll be back there to shop for clothes soon, I found a long sleeved shirt that I like.

Big boys don’t worry, they have huge sizes up until 7XL.

Full Screen But Cheaper OPPO A83

Had a wonderful evening with bloggers and online media at Yes Please jn BGC. Oppo Philippines has just come out with their current red version OPPO F5 but also acknowledged the need for high performance phones that wouldn't break the bank so during the party, they also released the OPPO A83.

They remarked that they changed the selfie centric market a few years ago and felt it needed a new upgrade so with the OPPO A83 you still would be able to take great selfies with the help of the AI technology in it. It takes more realistic shots now so you wouldn't look over processed or remove those things that makes you unique, the natural marks.

Aside from that, they got the improved COLOR OS 3.2 loaded on Android 7.1. They also have equipped it with a 5.7 inch 720 x 1440 display, a 2.5GHz octa core processor, plus 3GB of RAM so you get sufficient computing power on your handset anytime of the day. There's also the 13 megapixel rear camera so if you're taking shots of something else aside from your face, it can still perform at par, or even better than phones in this price range. It's Php 9,990.00.

Since they kept the processor like what they have with the F5, you can be sure it could take you to a major gaming experience without any problems. They did this so you could enjoy the same gaming feels at a fraction of a cost. Here's their head of PR Eason De Guzman who talked about the phone earlier.

They plan to do more things this 2018 and promised a crazier smartphone market, let's see if they cause a ripple or a wave.
