Rizal Park renaissance under way

April 5, 2011 ·

If you have one place to visit in Manila, make it Luneta - more formally known as Rizal Park. I hear it's transforming for the better these days. I get nostalgic because this is after all the Luneta of my youth where I spent memorable times in the play slides and tunnels, then eating ice cream and riding the open-air bus when traffic wasn't still the nightmare it is today. Am happy that the National Parks & Development Committee (NPDC) now reports much-awaited changes in Rizal Park to include a more vibrant Children's Playground which boasts of CCTV cameras, ...

SkyBroadband 5Mbps for only P999 a month

March 31, 2011 ·

My friends from SkyCable have updated me on the newest internet service scheme of SkyBroadband that's too hard to resist: 5Mbps for only P999 a month with a 15gb allowance. We are presently subscribed to a different broadband but I have to admit I get impatient, especially during peak hours at night, when internet service really becomes slow. During these times, I just choose to shut down my laptop and sleep instead of waiting forever for pages to load. SkyBroadband says, without blinking an eyelash: " Other Internet service providers can only give out 1 Mbps for ... Continue Reading...

Only in Manila….the begging showdogs :)

March 30, 2011 ·

I was hurrying to work yesterday when I saw these two dogs. They were too cute to ignore. On impulse, I took my digicam from my bag to take a picture until I was nudged by a cigarette vendor to "donate" five pesos. Aha! That was what the baskets were for :D Mind you they're just askals (street dogs) but looks like they were trained well. I bet they can stay in that position for hours.... while wearing shades of course! ... Continue Reading...

Buon Giorno @ Rockwell Business Center, Ortigas

March 28, 2011 ·

It was my first time to visit the Rockwell Business Center within the Meralco Compound in Ortigas. Shame on me, I didn't even know there was a "Rockwell" in this part of town. Normally, I would think it's the Power Plant Mall, one of my favorite shopping and dining destinations in the metro. Just like the Rockwell in Makati, this one didn't disappoint - although admittedly, I need to explore it more. The area consists of office towers fitted with contemporary work spaces. I think the best part is the generous landscaping and the majestic view of the Ortigas ... Continue Reading...
