Convenient Mobile Blogging with Smart GigaSurf!

Have you ever wondered how much people cherish internet connection nowadays? It's like they die a slow and painful death if they get offline. They're agitated, they can't think well, they get so uncomfortable if you don't see updates from your friends and family. Communication, Internet Connection is now a basic human right as accorded by UN Human Rights Council. Think about that for a minute. Isn't that a wonderful thing?

These are opportunities, we may have regrets, but we shouldn't wallow because the technology is continually changing, evolving as it fits our lifestyle. Things should be easy, affordable too. I upload a lot of stuff on the internet, from fashion show photos, shots of celebrities, to events I go to and even short interviews, I'd like that to be included in my blog posts. I have a postpaid line, but if I'd use my other phones I always carry along one that I could depend on, with a subscription that won't make me broke even if I just need it to get through the day. I'm glad Smart has prepaid promos that can hook me up to the internet, bigger data that doesn't cost that much.

Imagine if I subscribe to Gigasurf 50, I could get 1GB open access data that allows me to visit any site or use any app on my phone without restrictions. I also have a separate 300MB allocated for data streaming if I need to use Youtube, watch shows in iflix or other video streaming apps. It also includes unlimited text to all networks and would only cost Php 50 for 3 days. All you need to do is text the keyword GIGA50 to 9999. For those who want more, you can get Gigasurf 99 for 2GB of data, unlimited text to all networks which would only cost me Php 99 and last me 7 days. You can get that fast just by texting GIGA99 to 9999.

I mean, that's cheap already and you definitely get MORE data for that amount. You don't really have to suffer, they've got really good customer support too. I'm glad I still use my prepaid lines, believe me it has saved me a LOT of times from covering your favorite celebrities in Manila. You'll know how convenient it is if you're a Smart subscriber! 

It shouldn't be complicated at all! Visit https://smart.com.ph/prepaid/gigasurf/ for more information about the promo :)

Smart Comes Out with Enhanced Smart Surf Abroad 550!

Ever had the problem of going out of the country and don't know how to subscribe to roaming? Well, Smart has made it even easier for you to enjoy the freedom to surf abroad in about 112 countries by giving you the ultimate deal of Php 550 per day via Smart Surf Abroad. It's the best deal yet and include frequently traveled countries like Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, US, France, Germany, Brazil, India, Myanmar, Ukraine and others. That's not all, it's also hassle free because there's NO NEED TO REGISTER! No joke! As Smart's partner networks will automatically connect you right there and there. If you ask me, that's already a big plus in any way shape or form. You also have to remember though that it also starts at 12:01 AM to 11:59 PM so if you're going to that country, I'd suggest you turn on roaming the next day so you can max out and save a ton on your phone bill.

Speaking of phone bills, Smart gas gotten you covered on bill shock. They've got a new network lock feature does not allow roaming usage on non-partner roaming networks. Hey, that's going to make you travel a lot easier and won't connect and charge you on those networks that would charge you an arm and a leg if ever you go somewhere else. That's no UNWANTED charges and won't take a lot on your budget. I remember having problems in Singapore in the other network once and couldn't complain because they connected me even if I didn't want to. Good thing Smart's better, I'd be ready to go any place I want to without worrying about that. When I went to Jakarta a few months ago, I didn't have any problems at all and only got me charged Php 550 for a whole day of internet activities at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Whatsapp, Viber, Facebook Messenger, Google Maps (in case I need to check locations when I get lost) and Google Translate when I couldn't answer back in Bahasa as the place needs it.

Smart has everything you need now on surfing the internet when you're abroad. You just have to go there and enjoy it!

Streaming and Surfing Fun As Smart Prepaid Brings You Big Bytes 50

It looks like you're going to be having fun this week as the country's biggest network will make you enjoy watching those favorite movies, super cool TV shows and stream the most awesome music on your prepaid lines as they bring BIGBytes50. Yes, for just 50 pesos you can enjoy 3 days of surfing at 350 MB. That's super convenient to have when you enjoy iFlix, Fox where there's a ton of movies and even local GMA shows plus Spinnr where you can get hours upon hours of music at the end of your fingertips, it's that good!

Aside from the cost, having iFlix on my phone means I don't have any wasted time. I don't watch films that much in movie houses because of my busy lifestyle and the app saves me hundreds of pesos for movie passes and even more if you count the super salty butter popcorn and soda. Sometimes, I whip up microwave popcorn at home and prepare iced tea if I need a break from all my tasks. It saves me money, it also saves me the pain of going to and from the mall. I'm not even talking about the monstrous traffic so just imagine the convenience of spending 99 bucks for a whole month, all that since I'm a Smart subscriber. Add to that the recent addition of MGM as investor to iFlix, Fox on the Viewstream App and listening to Spinnr all day, if you do all these, you'll definitely make Taylor Swift proud!

Team Designed, Custom Built: NIXON at SM Premier Aura

Totally NOT related to the former US President, NIXON is a brand who's roots come from Encinitas, CA in 1998. They initially created a small line of team-designed, custom built watches and only sold it exclusively in specialty board sport to small fashion and lifestyle retailers. Intended for surfers and extreme sports athletes, it has become a stalwart of easy, home grown clothing that include select men’s and women’s outfits, leather goods and custom audio headphones now enjoyed even in Asia Pacific. 

The Philippine market still proves to be an important one and they have seen this one of the places in the region to put a stamp on. It was carried previously by dealers but we're so lucky to have a full store that genuinely has stuff from NIXON which we got hold of last week.

They've got pretty DAMN good watches on display.

Tried it on for size and it was the perfect fit. It was a Man's watch and I really felt it was mine right from the beginning. You know that thing where you feel serendipity? Exactly.

Then another one that can pass for a more classy dressed up suit, none of those shiny ones that glisten on spotlights. This is something that could be worn by Agent 007 himself. As part of the Sniper Collection, it just had the right amount of pizazz that men would want in a watch.

It's also got the patented lock that you can only see in NIXON watches. A pretty good way to identify the brand on that alone.

These cost around $ 150- 200 bucks, just do the math in Philippine pesos; but it is mid range which totally sells on me. Great for yuppies that want a good and impressive everyday watch. Then we had more!

These watches are part of the DIP DYE collection. Easy going, not so expensive watches but really good quality. This would be the perfect gift for young guys who want things simple yet still classy. The two to three toned color wonder would look really good even with simple shorts or jeans and a shirt.

There's also the Gunsmith, Karmaflage (which is on sale), Luxe Heritage, Rover Patchwork and other collections that would really fit you. Just check them out on the store and there's surely one that'll fit you.

I also liked some of their bags. This one in the center that's got yellow trims is a must buy item.

The belt and buckles have character. Simple yet the pop of red would likely give it away. Proud to wear NIXON on any suit, jeans or casual wear... it would be nice to have this accessory in your closet.

They also have headphones, mobile speakers that are in different shapes and sizes. It's crisp, clear and loud... just the way you like it at around 30-150 bucks. They also have cases and covers that would fit new phone models because they are complete... it's a lifestyle brand after all and together with your board + bleached hair... you'll look good on the beach and on land. No sweat!

If there's something that I would prefer to get in this store, it's those watches (especially the limited edition ones) and these pieces of clothing! I love those wifebeaters and sweaters!

 I've hand picked two sweaters that would be perfect for men and women. Would I pass as a stylist? =)

It's relaxed, it feels good on the skin and would definitely want you to remember a day in the beach, working out, your boards and those memorable times with friends. If you think it's you, you should never hesitate to wear something that would represent your style and personality. After all, at the end of the day the only thing that would make you happy will be something that you get with your hard earned money and the people who appreciate it around you. It's not expensive, prices are competitive and the brand is world class. What more can you ask for?
