WOTL- Yes Can We?

I just remembered that it has been a year since Barack Obama was elected by the American people. So how is the US today... signs say that the recession is almost over. But there was even more problems like the health care issues, tensions with Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and many more. It seems the problems wont end, yet Obama shows his substance as a great leader and still has the coolness to be game for any American celebration. Actually I wanted Hillary to be the bet of the Democrats, but since they are of the same boat and Hillary is Secretary of State, so I think it okay. So all I could say is, happy election day Barack!

WOTL-Putim

In a society that had a mentality that a whiter complexion is the dominant and wiser people, its hard to see why people still crave to be whiter from their original skin color. Was it caused by ridicule from friends who disgust dark skin? Or is it a racial imprint to us that the color determines if you are civilized or not. And with all of the products that promise a whiter you, they are endorsed by people who are already white. Yes its one of the biggest irony in the Pinoy society and yet its end or enlightenment seems to be not seen in our culture. Gluthatione anyone?

WOTL-Slang

Word of the Lourd again kids! This time will tackle on the slang (isleng) culture. Does diction and pronunciation really a necessity and a requirement in our world today? Even the call center people like me (before), are not of the perfect caliber of speaking, yes we do make slip ups. I actually remembered some of my calls that I would mispronounce the words, yet the customer would still understand me. I have no bisaya blood, but I do find myself on those predicaments. Hey, there are lot of indigenous people that have better speaking and diction than us in the cities. And at the end of the day, we find these things funny. I just hope that these things would be just a lighter side of language and not eventually a issue we need to be dead serious or too sloppy that it degrades our communication skills... so chill... relax and have a soupdrinks ...

WOTL- He's back and Wasak

Hey Guys, I've been a fan of TV5's news program TEN, the evening news and I love the segment Word of the Lourd by the lead vocalist of Radio Active Sago Project, Lourd De Veyra. He is not really a journalist but looks more like an activist. However in this segment he tackles critical issue that usually most of us would ignore or take for granted. With this segment, he sheds light upon a topic mixed with a wacky perspective of videos and pictures that would highlight his points. Truly a new kind of journalism but still with the sense of responsibility and challenge to the public, which most news may lack. Hope you enjoy this first post for WOTL which we be a regular segment in this Blog. So take time to watch the video and it would be appreciated if you may leave a comment.

The video is not actually the first since they may be in random for now and the following weeks, however since this segment is aired once a week, I might need to catch up with post so you won't miss this awesome production. Today's video is He's back and wasak tackles about the busy world an the energy drinks that has become a norm to the regular worker or student that is both beneficial or fatal to our lifestyle and our health. I'm not actually a afan of these drinks but I do drink a lot of different liquids, which sometimes I may not know that the contents may be the same as these energy drinks. And actually I might need one in the next few days since I need to work a lot for our necessities right now. So cruel, yet we need to survive...

I WANNA STARBUCKS PLANNER!

I heard the new Starbucks planner is now up for grabs...Its more of a tradition now to have the planner that I know many are coveting to have one. As a matter of fact I never had one, but really want to have one! If you may notice, starbucks has become more of the casual lifestyle of the modern pinoy. This proves the booming number of starbucks stores, the people experiencing the flavor of frappé and cappuccino which is not now exclusive to the sosyal people. So I would say that this brand has been a flavorful treat like a pat on the back after a hard days work.

GO VENTI!

füdfÿt: Dare to be Fit 'n Right at Taste Asia!

Dare to be Fit 'n Right at Taste Asia!

As the holidays approaches, its actually good to know that you can stay or be fit even it may seen impossible or frustrating. We maybe familiar with all the weight loss and exercise products and medicines in the market that, in which most cases fail to maintain or achieve the real results or what we can really call "fit". Well, Del Monte Fit 'n Right juice drinks and fruit snack is for you!

You might also wonder why did I feature this on a food portion of the blog, well the Fit & Right products are still considered food or beverage with a good effect on you body. Also, I've been very frustrated with my actions also on how to lose weight. However for this event, its more than the good food and the flowing drinks, it was also a event for fitness with real gym instructors and fitness gurus like Jim Saret (he trains UAAP, PBA and Philippine Olympic Team members to name a few) who gave hands-on examples and exercises that one can do without going to the gym. I was really amazed with thier 4-minute exercise that can burn up to 400 calories in just 10 minutes (even after the work-out, which they call afterburn). They also defined that a fit person is not only with the appearance. Factors such as muscle strenght, flexibility and cardio-ascular endurance are also some of the basis of fitness.

Looking at my figure today, I badly need a reduction of pounds. So I was inspired to do the exercises also with the help of the L-carnetine from Del Monte Fit 'n Right will boost my metabolism plus the calories that will be converted to energy. Hmmm... this actually gave me an idea that I could be the next success story for the Fit 'n Right commercial!

just a simulation...lets compare the results probably after some months...

now for the fun stuff...

good food + good bodies + good and fit lifestyle = GOOD TIMES!

sige kuya takbo!
