People Come and Go.......



              In our life, people come and go. Those who stay, are those with whom we have cultivated a wonderful relationship with, while those who didn’t, are simply mere acquaintances who did not make much of an impact on our lives. No man is an island as they say. We need each other in order to survive. Our relationship with others helps us in keeping ourselves alive and inspired.

        There are people that are worth keeping, while there those that we are better off without. But the latter did not come into our lives without a reason. The tides of life sent them to us in order to learn a thing or two. And for sure, they have learned something from us too.

Let's All Go to Shakey's




Let’s all go to Shakey’s…….

        Shakey’s’ commercial jingle for its latest TVC, I must say, is very catchy and palatable to the ears. The more that I hear it on the radio and see the ad on TV, the more that I like and appreciate it. The song or jingle has a nice beat to it, which makes me melodiously suffer from what we call as “LSS” or last song syndrome. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. Listening to the song triggers my brain to make that proverbial trip down memory lane.

The ASWANG, Revealed.......



        Halloween provides the perfect backdrop to extend our imagination to reach the realm of the supernatural. Somehow, this occasion justifies any eager talk about ghosts, dwende, tikbalang, kapre, aswang and all other supernatural creatures. Admit it or not, we marvel at stories about the extraordinary. The Twilight mania that has reached our shores has spawned our own versions, with the aswang taking center stage. If the West has vampires, then the Philippines has the aswang.
