Snickers Bloggers Get Together

Image
I was invited last April 16, 2011 together with other bloggers to attend the Snickers Hungerlings Attack Competition Boot Camp Event. The event started with getting to know each other portion (though some of us know each other already). All the while I thought that it’s going to be some sort of war games due to the instruction that we wore something army type.  The event was full of fun and excitement especially when they started discussing the kind of war that was going to do.   Snickers Hungerlings Attack is a new game that snickers introduces to us. Instructions were given and finally, it’s our time to attack. Try-out after try-out happened for we want to beat the shortest time.  We were so engross that time fly so fast. Players can choose between webcam and keyboard. I was once addicted to another sort of game in the pc, but now I think I found another one and this time, my children can’t remove it from the computer.  Bloggers so engross to what they're ...

The Rebirth of Luneta Park

Image
I was born and raised in Manila. Malls and theme parks are just starting to exist. A big part of my youth was spent in the heart of Manila, the Luneta . I could still remember the many reunions, gathering, events; experiences that were spend at the Luneta Park. But as time goes by, the Luneta Park became a thing of the past. Many undesirable events or people became associated with the place. The last time I visited Luneta was to be a part of the Centennial count down. During that time, we are so careful as not to be a victim of any criminal that lurks in the area. I once again visited the beloved Luneta l ast week. I was so amazed of its transformation and renovation. The change was so drastic that I was so happy to applaud the person or organization that’s behind of this evolution.  The Luneta Park was once again regaining its glory. The improvement of the Children’s Playground was a site that delights not only the children but the child in all of us. It was one of my favor...

Summer Time at Club Manila East

Image
The warm temperature that we experience is a reminder that summer is officially here. One of the things that it reminds me is outing, swimming and trills. I attended a gathering at the Club Manila East last week and experience firsthand what this new water theme park can offer. I’m a mother who prefers to enjoy time bonding with kids rather than waste it on traveling. What’s interesting about the place is that it’s just an hour drive if you are within the Rizal area.   Since my children ranges from a boy to teens, Club Manila East offers different areas that capture their time and attention. All them enjoy the whole day bonding or spend some time alone. From the usual swimming to kayak, giant slide, the whole day was spent with fun and excitement. Thru to its word, Club Manila East has given us a great time. Experience Summer in High Gear : Dive , Surf, Fly The advantages of visiting Club Manila East are a long list. It just so happen that we don't have a car, we could still enj...

My First Blog Fest

Image
I started blogging last January. I use to write my journal in a diary. I was happy with until I discover that there's a new way where I can preserve my thoughts and memories on a more high tech means. With the help of some friends I made my way around. And through this new found passion of mine, I meet new friends and found myself in a middle of gatherings and events. After four months, I finally attended my first Blog Fest. For a newbie like me as they called it, this event had helped a lot to a further understanding of what blogging is all about. The community of bloggers seems to be growing and growing every minute. I’m just thankful that there are people who are willing to help newbies like me. Blogging is not all about money or event. It’s a gathering of friends who shares a common passion. The passion to write her or his thoughts and opinions whether right or wrong is a right of every person but every bloggers should be responsible.   Blogging now is a part of on line me...

TRANVIA Ride

Image
I happened to be at the Luneta Area last week and one of my goals is to go around the area. But at my age ( I do accept the fact that I’m not in my younger years), how could I possibly go around with out exhaustion running after me.  A new mode of transportation caught my eye. A kind of train like seizes my attention. A TRANVIA as they call it pass by. I could enjoy the ride from Manila Ocean Park to Taft Avenue and vice versa. It stops at some landmarks where I could enjoy the view and the trip last for thirty (30) minutes. Fare rate of P 50.00 for one way loop or I could go to Full loop for only P 100.00 pesos is a deal I didn’t let just pass me by.  Going around the area of Luneta and to Manila Ocean Park is just a breeze that others could enjoy. I do hope others could experience the trip that made my day. Mommy Lariza CLICK HERE FOR MORE PHOTOS

KOI Nursery at Manila Ocean Park

Image
I was at the Manila Ocean Park Oceanarium when I saw feeding bottles nearby. I know for a fact that we use them for our infants or maybe on baby animals. I was amaze to find out that these feeding bottles contain special formula feeds that the public can use to feed a special type of fish, the KOI. Mommy Lariza It was really an experience that I can’t easily forget for the excitement and enjoyment it has brought to me. These cute and adorable Koi is one of the new attractions that only Manila Ocean Park could bring to its client. Child or child at heart will surely appreciate and understand this species of fish that can only be found as far as I know, in Manila Ocean Park. Do let this experience pass you by.

Athena: Milk for Women

Image
I was just having my afternoon nap when my mobile suddenly rings. It was a call from V-cargo, a logistic company whom I sometimes hire to do some pick up and deliveries for me. I thought that there was something wrong, but to my surprise it was a delivery package for me, two boxes of 180 grams of Athena Milk. I first got a box of Athena Milk from a fun ran that I attended few months back. It was creamy and I dearly love the taste. It’s the first time that I encounter milk that ,not only provides calcium but low in fat and a source of anti-oxidants. (Vit. A, E and Zinc.). Being a mother of five energetic kids whom I have to attend to plus their hectic schedule of activities and my work; I have to stay fit and attractive. To look good and feel good is must and with this in mind, Athena formulated milk that will meet my special nutritional needs. So ever busy that I sometimes forget to eat, and to make sure that I don’t miss the nutrition I need, a glass of Athena milk is all I need. I e...
