REEL DEAL: Bayani... Ang Tatay Ko


Filipinos are noted to have a very significant and positive attitude in handling difficulties in life. Others may also treat their predicaments in sort of “cool” manners, which the Pinoys are really known for.  M&N Films have come up with a brilliant idea of ideally showing to the public the film “Bayani Ang Tatay Ko.” An indie film about life, its struggles... it’s about presenting life’s most vivid moments with the people we love. This film not only wishes to instill family values but also provide entertainment and at the same time honors the law enforcers.

Actor-comedian and host Bayani Agbayani plays SPO3 Nicanor Corpuz , a decorated cop, loving dad and husband to his wife Susan played by Yayo Aguila, and son, Adrian played by child actor Yogo Singh. They live a simple, happy life until an incident took their lives on a different turn. One morning while in the police detachment where he is working, Taning played by Rommel Montano, a toughie from an influential family came looking for his colleague, SPO1 Joey Ponce. Ponce apparently shut down his illegal “videokarera” business and refused to accept a bribe, making the latter furious. Taning was scandalizing the station so he took a policewoman, SPO2 Pinky Madrigal hostage prompting Nick to defend his colleague.

SM City Sta Mesa 3 Rainy Day Sale!


The 3 Day sale happens once again in SM City Sta Mesa this August 3, 4 and 5 with its mallwide sale from all stores inside the complex. And since the mall is just across the street from my school, the experience has been indeed more than the usual. I do pass by this mall almost everyday whenever I go home, but things change especially when sale season comes.


SM City Sta Mesa may be one of the oldest SM Malls in the Philippines, but it houses a lot of stores that one can spend hours just looking at the choices. Situated in the middle of the borders of Manila, Quezon City and San Juan, it brings people from these cities to what is was called "Centerpoint". Now with a new face as SM City Sta Mesa, still has been visited by a lot of patron ans also regular  shoppers.
