MEGA Sardines Presents FIRST DAY

I am impressed, it looks like MEGA Sardines is at it again. 

 With the success of their first two viral videos called “Adulting” and “Tipidity”, they recently came out with another short film called "First Day", a play on one of the most pivotal moments in your life, your first job. Do you still remember that day? 

 Director Chris Cahilig puts in a little dash of romance as character Joseph played by Jindric Macapagal tries to make it big in Metro Manila. He then finds himself smitten over coffee breaks, lunch outs, with an angelic ward as he enjoys every moment with comfort food so close to Filipinos, over a can or two of what could cause #MegaGandaAngBuhay to happen.

This short film was made through the efforts of Tiu Lim Foundation (executive producer), Rommel Sales (cinematography), Yuji Gonzales (screenplay), Jegs Morales (offline editor), Kenneth Amparo (online editor), Melai Entuna (line producer), Clark Lopez (assistant director), Kat Salinas (sound design), Richard Gonzales (scoring), Det Moldera (accounts manager), Yani Bautista (production manager) and Johanna Evangelista (production coordinator). 

 If you would like to see “First Day”, it can now be viewed at MEGA’s official Facebook page facebook.com/officialmegasardines and their YouTube channel (just search Mega Global). Currently, “Tipidity” and “Adulting” has almost 3 million views on YouTube. You may also watch these short films through MEGA Sardines’ official FB page too. 

Thanks to Mega Global Corporation for doing this. As you may well know, they are also the manufacturer of MEGA Sardines, one of the country's freshest sardines packed 12 hours from catching to canning. You can get it in easy open cans and pouch forms. I love their Spicy version personally for breakfast. 

 Now go watch it. You'll love how the story would turn out.

The MEGA Sardines' "Adulting" Viral Video

If you're a mushy person like me, I'm sure you've seen this on Facebook lately. MEGA Sardines has been doing videos like Tipidity and this next one called Adulting so you get to touch with emotions you probably haven't seen in quite a while.

Honestly when a friend shared this on his timeline, I admit I was just curious at first. The veteran character actress Ruby Ruiz in it had me going but once the story was laid out, I got hooked. Let me warn you because this will play with your feelings, starting the most important person in your life, your Mom. I guess this stemmed from our busy lives, our yearning to be independent, but forget that our parents only want the best for us, to keep us safe from harm, and ultimately to spend treasured time - hopefully not to waste and become memories.

I don't wanna spoil things so here, come and watch it!

“Adulting” was produced by Tiu Lim Foundation, Directed by Chris Cahilig, Rommel Sales (cinematography), Yuji Gonzales (screenplay), Alec Figuracion (offline editor), Kenneth Amparo (online editor), Melai Entuna (line producer), Clark Lopez (assistant director), Kat Salinas (sound design), Richard Gonzales (scoring), Yani Bautista (production manager) and Johanna Evangelista (production coordinator). “Adulting” was also shot on location at Bria Homes in Pampanga.

This is part of MEGA Sardines #MegaGandaAngBuhay web series and I can't wait to see how you would react to this and the last one. I hope you learn something from this too because your parents would probably appreciate if you spend time with them even more.

Easy Christmas Shopping at 2nd Megabrands Sale!

I hated my credit card before (Hi Citibank! :P ) as they had so much unnecessary charges, preposterous interest rates and crappy customer service. I was looking for a new one and I needed something similar in offerings, or maybe even more!

Since Christmas is just around the corner, I wanted to have something that would make life easier for me. Cashless shopping is very common these days and cards need to be accepted almost everywhere because cash is just too dangerous to carry around. I envy BANKARD Holders because they'll have their own sale happening in Megatrade Hall's 2&3 on September 30, October 1 & 2. Upto 70% off on major brands which I adore! I think I'll bring my wallet along and think about getting an RCBC Bankard there. They have 0% 12 month installment offerings also for those high ticket items. This is surely one thing I wouldn't miss for the world!

I need to get my Mom, Dad, brother and sister a gift early so they can give me one too later on. =) That's how it usually works in my home. So are you just going to lounge around your home in those days? Better get up and head to Megamall Megatrade Hall 2 & 3 on these dates so you can save a lot on Christmas Shopping... I know I will. =)

Christmas Starts Now!

Christmas is really near. A month from now we will be celebrating the birth of Christ, my own personal savior!

In the Philippines, the season is quite a big deal. Celebration starts even as early as September. You'll see girls and boys selling lanterns on the streets, giving gifts, exchanging cards, some sing Christmas carols with one big joyful voice. This has been evidently the biggest holiday celebration every Filipino looks forward to.

Extended families are a common sight. Everybody recognize their Godparents at this time because they are somewhat obliged to gift giving whenever December 25th arrives. Yeah that even includes me! I'm not into that Godparent role much but in this culture, it is taboo for you to shy away from requests to do so. I've got about 10 godsons already and they are probably more than that. I've got one who in my mind to give a specific gift. I haven't seen my godson Ariel Joseph in such a long time. I've got to give him something he'll surely love so I'm checking online stores now. The kid is special to me since I got his mom and dad together when we were in college. I started to only tease them one day, then they ended up married. I think I have a niche for doing that to my friends. I saw one website that has the CARS play set. I would have bought this for myself but I think the kid should get one instead.

I'm sure he'll like this... I know he'll enjoy this one!

I'll probably just get a dragons figurine for my self since I want one too. It's just going to be part of my toy collection. I know what you're thinking, but hey it's Christmas so give me a break! Let's enjoy the season and start giving! Christmas starts now! Please do visit the website where I got these MEGA Brands toys from and start getting something for your kids and loved ones too!

Cool huh?! Even I like them that much!
