The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Finale!

Another blood lusting series is about to end and this season ender is truly going to be exciting as the Vampire Diaries bid goodbye on Tuesday, May 15 8PM. It will be shown on ETC and you'll surely enjoy every scene as love, relationships and death become doubly complicated... why? It's a life of a vampire after all!

 Just imagine the life of a Vampire, being chased by another Vampire because of the fact that they are not purely bred or mongrels in dog language just makes this even tougher. Stefan and Damon would need to deal with Klaus the original hybrid and if the chase and fight ensues between Vampires, expect a lot of bloodshed haha I just gotta say that haha. Killing one who started your bloodline in Vampire diaries would also entail the precedent Vampires to die so they might not like it if it turns out that Klaus is within their bloodline. What do they do?

Alaric who is now a full blooded Vampire will still try to kill all of them ala Castlevania. Elena, Aunt Jenna and Matt will make your relationships more complicated as they try to survive the complications of being with vampires.Who will she give her love to? Will it be Stefan or Damon?

Make sure you watch THE VAMPIRE DIARIES SEASON 3 FINALE on May 15, 2012. That's Tuesday at 8PM on ETC! Capisce?!

Miriam College Nuvali - Breaking Ground in the South!

Some of my friends and family finished in Miriam College in Quezon City. It was a nice morning to take part in something so big with this school. We got a glimpse of how it's like to be in this promising development down South. Yes ladies and gentlemen, Miriam College just broke ground in Nuvali. This coincides with the school's 85th Year in existence. With Nuvali's dedication to environmentally responsible living, it was something so right for the school to expand its wings inside a 15 hectare property. 

Ma. Rosario O. Lapus, Ph.D says Miriam College-Nuvali has been blessed with roots and wings. Their roots are still in Quezon City, together with everyone she wants to enjoin them on their flight to the south. They are so glad that they are expanding their wings in Nuvali.

 Miriam College - Nuvali will have the same Mission, Vision and academic standards as the Quezon City Campus. The communities in the south will surely benefit from this and the studies that they have made indicates the need for their unique kind of education. The unique kind of education? I have been hearing that since they started and tried to find out what it was. 

They gracefully thanked everyone who attended the occasion and also the Maryknoll Sisters who were there to witness the opening of the second campus. Judging from the actual alumnus present in the event, their distinct unique education was starting to become clear to me. They are all going through education offered on their school "The Marian Way". 

Fernando Zobel de Ayala was there as guest of honor; and surely this must be very important to Nuvali. He says he's very delighted to have Miriam College in Nuvali. He's looking forward to work with the school and both have a meaningful impact in the lives of Filipinos today. He knows how much the community would benefit from this school who's going to put up their second campus in an Ayala Property. With the studies Miram College has made in putting this up, he's sure this would be a welcome development and they are welcoming them with open arms. It was the right place and right time according to Mr. Ayala.

  

There was also an exhibit on the history of Miriam College. It was so nice to see how they have grown to be one of the best institutions in the country.

Aside from the Board of Trustees, the Maryknoll Sisters were present too. It was so nice to see them there.

Miriam College showed up with world class talent as their multi awarded choir provided music. It was so nice to see an all girl glee club. 

Signing is Dr. Rosario Lapus Miriam College President, Ana Margarita Dy head of Strategic Land Bank Management Group, Ancieto Bisnar Jr GM of Vesta Property Holdings Inc and members of the board of trustees.

Joaquin "Jun" Chipeco Jr. represented the local government seen here accepting the token of appreciation from Miriam College President Rosario Lapus.

At the venue, it was so nice to see that each of the departments in Miriam College was represented. They wrote letters to future students of Miriam College Nuvali. So heartwarming to see the one made by the kids!

Under the sweltering heat of the sun that afternoon, everybody was so happy to witness this momentous occasion. A mass was celebrated. It was the right thing to do, to start off the Marian way they are so proud of.

Miriam College will begin operations on 2014. It will be COED and will strive to have the architecture and design 50/50 on structures and open spaces + greens. Phase 1 of the project will cover basic education programs (preschool, Grades 1-2, 1st and 2nd Year High School; additional school levels will be opened up every succeeding year). Phase 2 (which will happen on the 5th year of operations) will include their higher education programs. They will still be concentrating on their forte which is Science, Math and Communication Arts. They will also be offering Marketing, New Media, Entrepreneurship, Design, International Studies, Gender Studies, Environmental Studies among others. They will also open night classes for Adult Learners, Out of School Youth which is quite similar to the program that they have in the Quezon City Campus (via Miriam Adult Education -  MAE) mostly for underprivileged people in the community.

It was so nice to see they have gone full circle. Miriam College is truly the epitome of TRUTH, JUSTICE, PEACE and INTEGRITY of CREATION. I know now what Miriam College stands for when they say they have a "Unique" kind of education, I just witnessed that first hand and I'm sure they will become a bulwark of what they stand for in the South.

Experience ESPN HD, SKY Broadband at SKY Zone!

I want my own HD TV! That's exactly what I got imprinted on my forehead when I visited the SKY ZONE facility at the posh Powerplant Mall in Rockwell. I had never seen channels so clear in my entire life! It was like everything was just next door and it was just a flat glass screen separating us. I didn't know we had this technology within out reach through SKY CABLE HD!

The thing is you can only experience this high definition cable TV viewing plus high speed broadband Internet through the SKYZONE Mall Blitz on May5-6, 19-20 at the Ground Floor South Court of the Power Plant Mall in Rockwell. The afternoon simply just awed me about how fast the connection was; it makes my office's high bandwidth connection be put to shame.

Just look at the comparison!

Standard Definition Cable Connection had slight delays and it was really showing pixelated parts. Although it showed quite a decent thing on HD TV something was definitely missing. Shouldn't this be crisp and vivid?  The game was there, (Thank God for ESPN!) but the people and the whole venue seemed too blurry, I had so many reservations about what I've been watching at home. Shouldn't HD be clearer?

Lo and behold my questions just got answered by merely looking at the side of the SKY ZONE area. See how human he looks like? He doesn't even have those pixels I mentioned earlier. It was crisp as a potato chip fresh out of the oven. Even on an angle it still had that feeling. Maybe if I watched "the ring" that time Sadako might really come out! Haha! It was really LIFE LIKE!

Even my blogger friends tried out SKY Broadband facility had a grand time downloading/streaming movies in a couple of minutes! We blog heavy in photos and didn't see it lag on the Mac computers there. You've got to experience it all to tell the difference. Imagine 112 Mbps! Good thing they are even planning to have them brought to different malls soon!

I love that they also offer ESPN on HD via the ESPN HD channel. Imagine those sports programs all on HD TV quality while in the comforts of your own home. Best of all, you and I could get the SKYCable HD's Box installed with up to 85% off the regular price. If you check out the SKY ZONE mall blitz facility you can get first dibs on ESPN HD's sports programs and what they have to offer this season. I'm sure you would want to experience all those NBA Games, Football and Golf programs seen on HD... as if you were there!

Other than that, there are SKY Broadband packages made up to 112 Mbps. There is also a promo called BIGTIME CHOICES that's got perks! Free Digibox installation for non Sky Cable Members, Free upgrade to SKY Cable HD plus 3 months viewing of ESPN HD and free SKY Cable Season pass for the Manny Pacquiao - Timothy Bradley fight this coming June! Just imagine how much free stuff you'll already getting once you are subscribed through SKY Cable and SKY Broadband, Cable TV and Internet has never been better!

Tarp Talk!

The weather seems so crazy nowadays. Transportation of goods here and elsewhere in the world has been doubly hard to do because of it. You can't expect one state to have sunny weather and have winter on the next but that's what actually happens most of the time. I know it may sound a little weird but the weather systems change because of global warming. In this day and age we should really prepare to cover up and make necessary arrangements to protect merchandise. If this isn't done it can literally waste thousands of dollars worth of products, more so if you are engaged in manufacturing like me. It might be hard for some but a simple clear tarp would do the job.

I also have some parts of our home in the south that I worry about. When we get materials from the city or elsewhere, it is prone to damage. The wear and tear is understandable but if you lose profit because of mishandling, that is another story. I am not the only one who goes through this. Actually, I have met some of them during a business conference in my part of the world. Judging from the looks of it they employ the same protective tarp measures that I do which says a lot about its ability to make things easier for both parties. The stories they told me were all nice. Some were good, some were bad but it was all based on trial and error. It's probably because in hindsight we are all in the mercy of nature. I know I'm not the only one thinking of protecting my stuff with custom made tarps.

Things should be easy. Maybe I'll try checking out sites where I can get it from. I'm that busy!
