More Original Telemovies at Sari Sari Channel!

It looks like their stepping up to the plate and making new original telemovie content for the Viva Communications and TV5 owned SARI SARI CHANNEL. They're gearing towards a wider Filipino audience and promises interesting and great new shows this side of town. They have already featured classic movies and tv programs but making one from scratch is a little unusual. They want to get more of these kind of shows out there using their home grown artists too, so you always see something fresh and you get choices because they've got everything in when it comes to Philippine entertainment.

First up is "Ang Kwarto Sa May Hagdanan" (The Room Under the Stairs) which is starred by Andrew Mulach. The show talks about JM, who had to stay in a friends house and encounters a ghost from his past. It'll be shown on July 30, 2016 and will include Aubree Caraan, VJ Marquez and Mayton Eugenio. The second feature would be "Wives of House No. 2" starred by Katya Santos, Pheomela Barranda, Antoinette Taus and Sarah Paglicawan. It's a story of friends who put up a cafe so mistresses like them would be able to spend Valentines day or any other special occassion like normal people. The show will premier either late August or September.

During the third quarter, they will also release a horror-mystery flick called "Where is Franco?" starring Julius Garreza. His character got lost when they were playing hide and seek when they were kids and later on goes back to haunt his playmates played by Issa Pressman, Arkin Del Rosario, Kiko Ramos, Kenzo Ortiz, Cliff Hogan and Angelica Yap. It might start late August and September too. The SARI SARI CHANNEL is on CIGNAL channel 3, you should be one of their 1.18 Million subscribers today and get these shows exclusively on CIGNAL.

KFC Releases New Four Cheese Chizza

I was busy the whole week and the Friday wasn't gonna let down either. When I arrived home, imagine my surprise seeing a familiar red package on the foyer carrying that little ol man on the front. When I opened it, it had 2 boxes in it and a bottle of what seems to be cheese. It was KFC, but what startled me was seeing the word CHIZZA on the box. CHIZZA? I really haven't had this in KFC nor did I think there was one on their menu because last time I checked this wasn't part of their offerings.

Okay, so I think they sent me something that isn't really out in the market yet so I did what most normal people would do... look at it first, then opened up the box!

Then I said WHOA! Wait a minute, it looks like a crispy fried chicken and pizza rolled into one! So that's why they call it CHIZZA! Well, what's that thing on top? I immediately went back to the paper that came with it - read that this thing is actually cheese. Oh yes ladies and gentlemen, CHEESE!  

 This bottle that came with it basically explains what's on top of the KFC CHIZZA. It's Romano (which is the more hard salty type), Parmesan (which is a little nutty, grainy and hard), Mozzarella (which actually is the best melted, soft type) and Cheddar (another hard cheese, comes in white or orange and is a little sharp). They put that on top of the lovely, crispy chicken and heated appropriately, it just has that lovely aroma of the combined cheeses and you can still taste the individual morsels in each bite. I know, I'm making you hungry but somebody's gotta tell you right?

How good was it? Let's just say that when I did take a bite from one slice and left it on the table... when I came back... both boxes were empty. Yes ladies and gentlemen, my family basically are CHEESE monsters and they've raved about it over dinner. Yes, some had the gist to actually even eat it with rice. Although I prefer it plain and simple, just like The Four Cheese CHIZZA that it should be.

This weekend would be a good day to visit your favorite KFC branch but since it's not out yet, you must come back and check out their channels when it'll officially be in stores nationwide! It's going to be available for a limited time only, so you know what to do! Go to a KFC store near you!

Julie Anne San Jose Launches "Chasing The Light" Album

I was a bit late but was fortunate enough to catch Julie Anne San Jose at the blogcon for her new album Chasing The Light. It has been her pet project this year and now that it's out, she's excited to share all these optimistic and upbeat tunes she's been working on these past few months. She's a stalwart of OPM and she's also coming out with a new music video for one of the tracks on the album, something that you should definitely watch out for. 

I was kind of torn about asking her about what's happening with her love life right now but Julie Anne was very accommodating albeit a bit uncomfortable about it. She admitted they are definitely in the "getting to know each other stage" and she's quite happy about it. I felt she was wishing some of people would understand that she too is human and is capable to love and be loved, a thing that I totally agree with. I mean, she's been working so hard all these years, I truly believe she deserves to be happy. She's a very smart girl, whoever she chooses in the near future is surely going to be her responsibility and everyone knows she can handle that. (Sorry this is becoming a bit opinionated but I just can't help it!).

She also talked about how almost half of the people she used to work with have already jumped ship and gone to the other station, but she answered quite emphatically saying that she misses them all, she misses the time they perform together in shows but wants some way, some day soon, that they would be still be able to work together in other projects because the music industry is so small that there will come a time that they would still meet again.  She's not closing her doors to opportunities but have steadfastly said she knows how much she's been taken cared of in GMA and knows how to give back "utang na loob" (with honor) when she needs to. Sitting with her across the table made me see a more genuine lady, still with big dreams and aspirations. She's still working towards that goal, and still give back to the things she's passionate for. 

I played her CD right after I went home today and listened to her tracks. I like "All Abour You", and "Never Alone" personally but the other tracks and music were quite as good. With 10 songs including a bonus track "Just Stay" plus an acoustic version of "Naririnig Mo Ba" (Can You Hear Me), this physical album and things on iTunes will surely be worth your money. It's refreshing, down right lovely to hear her work on these songs and she wants you to hear it all. 

Here's part of our interview on video, enjoy!

So if you played the video, you know that Julie Anne San Jose will be performing in 2 provinces and a tour in Canada (probably in more cities). So make sure you follow her on her channels to keep updated!

MOPHIE Battery Cases and Powerbanks

We said hi to the best selling battery case brand in the market called MOPHIE. A brand that has been in California and North America since 2005. They have been noted for style and engineered performance providing full case protection for phones and extra power for smartphones. They are the same manufacturers of the popular Juice Pack which I have also reviewed in the past. They've got a whole line of new devices that pretty much does the same thing and more. It is also available in 130 countries and is operating in California, Michigan, Netherlands, Hong Kong and China. I've personally used some of them and they've pretty much lasted quite long for what it's worth.

MOPHIE is the only authorized power manufacturer in Apple store so you will see them worldwide. They also have placed a commercial in Superbowl and now have 90% market share in the US and is gearing to increase now in Asia. There's a MOPHIE difference, they are triple certified and is the only one that's both a battery and can protect your phone. They do quality, and has priority charging as a feature which means it charges your iPhone first before the battery. That's smart!

They have different Juice Packs for every need. They also have it in different colors because we all need that in our life. They also have a waterproof and protect case called Juice Pack H2PRO for ultra rugged power and protection for your devices. They also have compact ones like the Juice Pack Reserve for those who would like it thinner and lighter plus it retails for under US$100. They also have Juice Packs for Samsung phones, particularly the S7 which people have raved about. For those who need ppwer banks in their life, they have MOPHIE Powerstation (in 3X abd 8X designs), Power Reserve and Power Reserve 2X. They have wireless charging available too, since businesses and individuals have set up infrastructure or devices for it, they're getting accessories made just for it. It charges on contact, they have different mounts too. Most of these will be available in Digital Walker and Beyond the Box stores and only range from Php 1,950 to Php 6,950. Take note though, these products does not charge phones but almost every device that have USB charging as a function. By the way, they will have USB C charging technology next week which is a good thing. It's coming people! Oh and it's also perfect for POKEMON GO when it rolls out in the Philippines, so get them while it's hot!

For after sales service, DIGITS will replace the device if it's under a year. So you've got them covered and safe within that period, that's re-assuring!
