Sunrise Trail Hike at Masungi Georeserve: An Empowering and Meaningful Birthday Celebration

Image
Since I was a child, as soon as June approaches, I feel thrilled because it's my birth month. I don't eagerly anticipate gifts, but rather the greetings from family and friends. It brings me joy. I am easily pleased. It doesn't take much to make me happy. Whenever I am asked what I want for my birthday, my usual response is "nothing" or "I don't know; I can't think of anything I want or need." I am not materialistic. I am happy. I am healthy. I am blessed with family and true friends. Feeling ko nasa akin na ang lahat and I prefer inner peace. Fancy that! Haha. I find more joy in giving, whether to family, friends, or even strangers. But this time, I said, "Lord, can I give myself a gift this time?" Since a retreat in Batulao is not possible yet, I scheduled a day for myself for a pampering session at the mall. I want to have a massage, facial, manicure/pedicure. I simply wish to unwind and disconnect from the online world for an entire...

Piolo Pascual teams up with Essilor Vision Foundation with #EyeCanSucceed campaign

Image
Program aims to help 10,000 Filipino students achieve  their dreams through better vision ​ Did you know that ten (10) in every 100 Filipino students have vision disorders and suffer from poor eyesight that can affect learning? Elementary schools typically present 50% of the material visually. In higher grade levels, that increases to 75%. Poor eyesight makes class work difficult. Sports and games are hard to enjoy if you can’t see the ball or the game. It’s not easy to make friends if an eyesight problem keeps you from recognizing faces.   Brand Ambassador Piolo Pascual with Easilor Executives and Rizal High School Principal This concern has led  Essilor Vision Foundation  (EVF)  to team up with leading actor and brand ambassador  Piolo Pascual  to launch  Eye Can Succeed , a program geared at providing free eye check-ups and  free  prescription eyeglasses to help 10,000 senior high school students pursue high...

Pia Wurtzbach is the new #QueenoftheCentury

Image
Last July 17, Century Tuna the country's #1 tuna introduced its newest endorser for Century Tuna Lite. Held at the Rizal Ballroom in Makati Shangri-la the ever gorgeous TV host, model, and Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach joins Century Tuna's outstanding roster of endorsers, as she appears in an all-new TVC that's oozing with sexiness and elegance! Pia first got bitten by the acting bug at the tender age of four, which later led her to join the Star Circle Batch 11, appearing in a string of television shows and movies. But her real break came when, in her third (3rd) attempt, she entered the Binibining Pilipinas Pageant in 2015, the stepping stone to her most glorious achievement thus far: bagging the highly coveted Miss Universe 2015 crown- following in the heels of Gloria Diaz in 1969 and Margie Moran in 1973 - in what was a most contentious competition. Greg Banzon, Century Pacific Foods, Inc. General Manager " We're thrilled to have Pia Wurtzbach in t...
