The OLX Christmas PossibiliTree

Popular online buy and sell website OLX just launched their new project called The OLX Christmas PossibiliTree at the Gateway Mall Cineplex today. The concept is simple, you just have to buy items from the OLX tree which contains good quality second hand items inside!

Like this painting of a flower which only costs Php 800 or that Nexus phone which only costs Php 1,000. 

Or this remote control car that only costs Php 700.

Php 2,500 for this Herschel Bag or Php 350 for the fancy wallet. 

I'm already planning to but this Danbo from Amazon Japan. It's cheap at Php 1,000!

This DJ equipment from Pioneer costs Php 20,000 only.

Or you can buy the PS3 for only Php 7,000.

All the proceeds will be given to Save the Children Foundation that helps kids go to school and find a home. You can also donate some of your preloved items at home if you want to help their cause. I'm planning to actually do that today!

Visit them today at the Gateway Mall Cineplex right beside Cinema 1 of Gateway Mall in Cubao, Quezon City. You can have that win-win feeling that people experience in OLX. You can buy, you can donate items, be an ambassador (so tell your friends!) or donate cash donations and it will go to the cause. It will be here until January 15, 2016 so hurry!

Ciao!

Shopping for Men's Fashion Made Easy at Lamido

Screenshot of Online Shop heaven http://www.lamido.com.ph/ (image not mine)

Christmas season in the Philippines started in the BER months. That starts when the month's name ends in BER that is. With the rate we're going, we're way behind schedule and we haven't been able to shop as much as we wanted. Now think about the amount of people that you haven't given any gifts during last year's holiday and you'll probably be a little sad because 1.) You may not have much time to shop 2.) Malls are too far 3.) You don't like walking around all day and still couldn't find that perfect little gift for your special someone/the one you love. It's a dilemma I know, but it's probably solvable. How? Easy, have you tried shopping online? If not, then maybe the Lamido buy and sell site interest you. They are a part of the Lazada group known for the biggest online retail stores here and around the world.

It's not easy picking a gift for a guy like me. I am so involved in fashion for men that I might discriminate a little when it comes to clothing, shoes or accessories. Hard to please? Yes I am, but if I shop I already know what to choose as soon as I get to a store and I see it. Women on the other hand would be an entirely different case. They roam around, pick one up, try it on, take it off, try another one on, spin around and return the merchandise. Somehow, I don't remember an easy breezy day in the mall when I have to accompany ladies I know there. Now, when they want to do that they would be able to do it right in the comfort of their own homes. You give them the choice, they pick the color and sizes and voila! You can have it delivered right to your doorstep, some even for free!

The best thing is, you don't have to go out and drive for that. You save on gas, you save on dining out, you save on the trip and you don't waste time spinning around the mall like a gopher who's lost his own hole. That's great technique right there which you can smash outside the ballpark, give yourself a pat on the back then say "I did good today!".

Oh and if you're still looking for more ways to shop, your Android phone might come handy. Get it from the Google Play store in this URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lamido.android&hl=en. You'll thank me afterwards! By the way, I already found a couple of watches that would fit me quite nicely, if you want to buy me one I won't stop you! Ha!

Living the Life in Makati: Avida Asten

Wherever you are in Makati, it's all prime lot. Whether you are in the residential area or right along the artsy fartsy Malugay district, you are bound to see this structure towering over the landscape. If you are a junior executive looking for a great place to stay near the business center of Makati, you should definitely check out Avida Asten.

Now that you've seen that, I guess I don't have to convince you no more. Fact is, it's near everything you need. They've also got a Tower II in the works which would probably one of the few things you should ask for if you're not in a hurry to get one and plans of investment.

We went to their official launch a few days ago and it was nice. They've got a few projects already up and this was just the right thing at the right time to shoppers passing by the posh Greenbelt 5. If they're serious about purchasing their first home, nothing beats location, proximity to everything in the community and transportation in this part of town other than Avida Asten.

Even the host agrees.

They even got fashion, art installations put up on site to see a glimpse of what its like to live in a place like Avida Asten. I guess no jaded guy would probably regret getting a place of his own in this part of the city. Then they were ready to unveil the look of Avida Asten.

Then they announced that they'll probably have 32 more projects planned and ready to sell out this year. Now who told you the country's in a slump when we're obviously booming in the real estate and construction sector. Mind you this is just the tip of the iceberg. If you're interested, they can plan out what terms you wish to have these condominium units.

Just Tower 1 alone would actually mean 644 residential units which comprise of Studio units, some also come in  1 Bed Room, 2 Bed Room, 2 Bed Room loft unit, and 3 Bed Room loft units that's perfect for a family. Unit Size Ranges from 23 square meters up to 115 square meters. Price ranges from Php 2.3M - 12.8M.

Who knows, you can probably break a good deal with them too! Maybe it's right for you!

 Sulit.com has majority of its traffic already garnered on Autos and they see the need for a more in depth solution so their consumers get the best experience bar none. This launch had one thing amazing announced, which they have been so excited to tell us all. If you place an ad at PinoyAutoTrader, it will now automatically appear in Sulit.com.

Creating Music Again!

It's been a while since I touched the keys of our piano. It's been collecting dust for years but I am up to purchase a new one perhaps because this one just doesn't sound right anymore. There are several things my relatives in Irvine told me about pianos, and one of them is that I can actually get some Used Pianos Los Angeles without breaking the bank. It's pretty special to me because music has been a part of my life and I just recently got so enthralled in making music again. I would love it to be like what I did in the 90's.

I also have amassed a few compositions that I would like to publish or put melody on. I already have an idea what I could put into an album. I've consulted my friends about this a few months back and they are thrilled to see me doing this once more. They want a whole different tune and we have talked about minor changes. It will pretty much affect personal tastes but I think I can adjust. It was about 10 years since I did this and I wouldn't want to claim I'm an expert. I will put my foot down though if they force me to change some parts of the chorus because I have invested a lot of time perfecting that part. Maybe I will concentrate on Pop music; after all I have done alternative music verging into that genre.

After putting in music I have to invest more time to listen to 12 or 14 tracks. I want them all to be cohesive to the theme that I am envisioning. With my friends tagging along and people in the industry being more receptive to my music, I think I can do better. I think I can be that great composer I've always dreamed of because I know I hold my own future.

A Toast for 2012!

The Christmas and New Year celebrations are not complete without the essentials. We whipped up a couple of regulars like ham, pasta, salad and of course the dessert! People in this side of the world usually gain 5-10 pounds because of the season and that is considered normal. What I mostly like about this time is the change to give and receive wine gift baskets. With family and friends around; you'll never have a dull moment for sure. We'll have lots of fun from here on!

The fact is, every celebration should end and start with a toast! With all the celebrities, famous people I've met this year and the hundreds of blog citizens I got to meet; it's so nice to rejoice and have that perfect MERLOT, SAUVIGNON BLANC or bubbly whilst clinking those glasses for the next year! With a sunny disposition, a clear mind and a great set of friends cheering me on I'm sure 2012 will be even better. There will be huge changes in the coming weeks so bear with me if you experience down times. While reading some of my entries this time last year, it looks like I took leaps and bounds in this craft. I hope I can continue to experience a lot of things this year so I can tell you the stories like you were there. That's my goal after all. It's that and something that would make the statement "I CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN" a reality. Cheers for 2012 and let's all drink to that!

Looking For Deals: Cars

I seldom go to malls or shops these days because of my busy schedule. To tell you honestly I don't even know how I survived this month without getting any hitches because of Philippine Fashion Week. I even went there without my van because as soon as the week started it totally went out on me crippling me from easily getting in and out of the venue. I said "This is not going to happen again... I probably need to get a new one" and so I did. Finding vans specifically within my area is a little hard because classified ads from newspapers don't work like what they used to. It usually shows a whole lot of cars in a "nationwide scale" and you need to check them out one by one to see if there is one in your area. If you are lucky you won't even find one too LOL. I'm not looking for brand new ones and second hand cars would be okay. I have a specific model in mind but I need to weigh out things first if I could get a better deal than that so I'm definitely open for something else. I checked out one great institution AYOSDITO.PH and got the leads I need showing everything within my area! What a time saver!

The ISUZU CROSSWIND I looked at was automatic, less than a hundred thousand kilometers and within the half a million budget I had. I think I'd go ahead and contact the seller. I found his contact details there too. I also have the option of trading in my old trusty Space Gear so I can get a discount off of it. I need to get that fixed too. Their online classifieds are very easy to look at and breeze through. They got what I need and let me know if it's within my area so I can check out the merchandise before I purchase it. I might not know how to buy a car but with the normal precautions they indicate at the site it's all going to be good.

Now isn't that nice to know?! =)
