GOODBYE PEPENG aka PARMA


yesterday, the nation sets all eyes to the super typhoon "pepeng aka parma" as it approaches the soil of our country, the Philippines. everyone was advised to stay calm and remain alert while preparing for the storm to hit the land..
there were some rain showers and gutsy wind during the afternoon in the National Capital Region. PAGASA projected that the destination of the storm will hit the same spot where previously typhoon "ondoy aka ketsana" flooded the whole area. death tolls were still increasing as time passes because some of the affected areas are still under water..
diseases brought by the flood debris, and garbages are very alarming. usual illnesses, like rashes, and other skin infections are easily spreading within the crowded evacuation centers. diarrhea and other water borne diseases are increasing too. even the school classes were affected, because schools are being used as temporary shelters of the affected families.
the typhoon pepeng did not hit the NCR as what the PAGASA projected it to be. it went up to the northern part of Luzon, along Cagayan and Isabella. It even hit the Bicol region first, before going north.
everyone in Manila, were relieved by the direction of the typhoon, but still it has caused a lot of damage to properties of the local residents of northern Luzon.
it might be goodbye pepeng, but it seems like there's another typhoon coming..

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES, a review

Image
This is the fourth installment of The Pirates of the Caribbean movie series. As usual, Johnny played his humorous clever type of a pirate who loves adventures and mysteries. In this film, Jack Sparrow was joined by Angelica (Penelope Cruz) who was his imposter in search for the Fountain of Youth. Angelica is Jack's former lover who happens to be the daughter of the ruthless pirate Blackbeard. This man posseses several magical powers, including the ability to shrink other ships down to miniature size and contain them within bottles. Blackbeard forces Jack to join his crew and lead them to the Fountain to circumvent a prophecy that a one-legged man will soon kill Blackbeard. Meanwhile, Gibbs, who memorized, then destroyed Sparrow's map, joins Barbossa's crew in order to beat Blackbeard and the Spanish to the Fountain. And so the adventure begins for Jack Sparrow and the whole gang.. This movie runs pretty long so, you better bring extra food and drinks when you watch this. I ...

SM City Calamba Grand Opening

Image
It was a TGIF, when SM City Calamba had its grand opening located along the busy road of Real. i remember when i blog about it back in December 21, 2009 where it is still on its first month of construction. I am totally impressed about SM's wikipedia info of its target opening date, which is October of 2010 because they absolutely hit it! Of course, how can i miss that opening? our house is just 5 minutes away from the mall.. though we were'nt able to get our feet stepped in as early, atleast we managed to. ;) The people were so overwhelming, and a huge foot traffic covers all the floors of the mall. It's like we're on a rally or something.. like an Edsa revolution, where we cant barely move as we try to walk around. Worst thing? It took us ages to get a table to eat, because all of the food places were jampacked! customers should even have to wait for the long queue of the restaurants just to have lunch. it's like everybody was there! But then, good thing that we ...
