Poll: Smart, Globe, or Sun Internet?

I have been contemplating on which internet provider I will go for. It's been like, what, a couple of months since I started comparing the services of major internet providers; Globe, Smart, and Sun. When I say comparing, I mean reading about what other subscribers have to say about these providers.

But it still seems not enough for me to finally pick one provider above the rest. or should I just pick one? 

If it's not too much, guys, can you share me some of your ideas about this dilemma I have right now?  

 

PH Azkals Devoured Sri Lanka Brave Reds

“The Philippines was the better team today.” This is what Coach Jang Jung of the Sri Lanka Brave Reds said after their team got a beating from the Philippine Azkals. 

 

Amidst the heavy downpour which started at the early first half of the game,  a crowd of Filipino fans, 12,000 people strong, cheered on for their new-found heroes in the field of sports. It was indeed a sweet victory not just for the Azkals but also for the entire country.

The first goal was scored in the 19^th minute if the first half after Chieffy Caligdong fashionably eluded two defenders in the box before striking that 1^st goal. That goal started the onslaught which was followed by four more goals.

 

The second score that the Fil-British striker Phil Younghusband got after finding himself suddenly unmarked in the box and hit the goal, was signaled a foul at first by the referee. Good thing the lead referee consulted the linesman and later on let the goal to stand. Lucky Phil might have gotten that luck from the presence of Angel Locsin who was in the dug out later after the game. (some guys just get it all, right?)

Angel amongst the crowd

The Philippine Azkals must make the best out of this win against Sri Lanka. They must not let this get into their heads and know that there are tougher games ahead specially that now they will be preparing for the second-round two-leg tie against Kuwait. The first leg will be played in Kuwait on July 23 and the second in Manila on July 28. Kuwait is no Sri Lanka team. They can’t be considered a push-over. Overconfidence must not get into the Azkals because it could bring them down.

Azkals coach Michael Weiss though knows what his team will be up to and what they have to prepare for.

"So we have to change our tactics, but nevertheless, if we stand compact we will have a chance. The first match will be played under incredible hot weather and we have to play smart and not waste our energy against an opponent who moves the ball very fast and technically superior.

"We have to analyze them carefully. I have all their tapes and I am looking forward to the challenge."

Hat's Off to White Hat Italian Yogurt

I'm not so fond of eating healthy. I know I should be watching what I eat from now on since age is catching up on me. But most often, eating healthy and not minding bland taste is just too hard to do.

Good thing some people have been trying to change how we should find healthy food as boring. More and more people are now conscious of what to put into their mouths. Wonderful and tasty alternatives have given old and boring healthy foods the chance to be better appreciated. Although these 'twists' come with 'pricey' price most of the time. But the common these delicious healthy options become, the affordable they soon will be (if they still aren't right now).

One healthy food I consider is yogurt. Yogurt is a custard- or pudding-like food made by the natural bacterial fermentation of milk. Yogurt is enjoyed with in different ways and popularly served mixed with fruits which I think is good to complement the somewhat-sour taste. This healthy food is also a great supplement for protein and calcium. And to those who can't tolerate milk products just like me, yogurt is the answer.

No, I have not been eating yogurt for years now. Actually, I have just discovered that I love yogurt. I might not look like someone who would appreciate such healthy food option but I dig it. It was my girlfriend who introduced me to loving yogurt just recently.

White Hat Italian Frozen Yogurt gave me an option to enjoy delicious and healthy yogurt at an affordable price. My first scoop of a White Hat yogurt was in Alabang Town Center. It was one unsuspecting ordinary night that turned into a memorable one when my girlfriend brought me to this kiosk in ATC. I was a bit skeptical at first. I've tasted yogurt before and I find it just plainly sour. But that first scoop of White Hat Yogurt changed how I use to think of yogurt.

  
I still am new in this 'living healthy, eat healthy' stuff. But White Hat is making it easier for me to consider eating healthy if it is as yummy.



   

Imagine...ASTORIA BORACAY

Imagine this.

You are holding hands with your partner and strolling by the beach. White sands kissing your feet while the amazing sun caressing your skin with enough warmth. Again, you are here in this familiar place where nature's beauty meets the beautiful people.

From among the people, this lady approaches you telling you that you get an invite to a free lunch(yes, FREE) in their hotel. She just asks you to provide some personal information and you and your partner will get to enjoy the free lunch in this relatively newly-built ASTORIA BORACAY. Seems like a wonderful dream indeed.

Just imagine it's true.

So there you are and your girl just entered the modern-designed hotel. It's architecture may be simple yet elegant. The hotel's entrance has a welcoming dining hall with furniture that compliments the awesomeness of the place itself. Even with Astoria's reputation and prestige, this Astoria Boracay can even cater to not just to the upper class denizens. 

The room rates are reasonably cheap considering the 5-star accommodation each guest and members will enjoy. Yes, they also have membership for those who can't get enough of ASTORIA BORACAY. But WAIT, (yes, you guessed it right) there's more. Their membership would not only let you get very low discounts in their Astoria Hotels and Condominiums in the country but also in hotels from a hundred different countries. Did I mention the freebies and discounts you can also get from other establishments? 

Now, let me help your imagination with these pictures I have gathered for you. Watch out, your jaws might drop.  

 

So this is the part where I will have to stop you from just imagining. Do something to make it come true. Get in touch with ASTORIA BORACAY now!

Thank me later. :-)

On Priorities, Mayonaise, and Coffee

I was just taking my doze of surfing the net when I read a very motivating analogy from one of the blogs I follow. I got so moved and impressed by it that I am re-posting it here on my blog. I hope it is going to inflict the same effect to my followers (if I have any, hehe).

The post was by someone named Dennis of Act Like A Man. Read on and I hope you'll like it. I did.

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
When 24 hours in a day is not enough;
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class
And had some items in front of him.
When the class began , wordlessly,
he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
and start to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
it into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again
if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand
and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else

He asked once more if the jar was full.. The students responded
With an unanimous ‘yes.’

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table
and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.

‘Now,’ said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things – Family,
children, health, friends, and favorite passions < BR>Things that if everything else was lost
and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the things that matter like your job, house, and car.

The sand is everything else —
The small stuff.
‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ he continued,
‘there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.

The same goes for life.
If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are
important to you.

So…
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
There will always be time
to clean the house and fix the dripping tap.
‘Take care of the golf balls first –
The things that really matter.

Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.’

One of the students raised her hand
and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled.
‘I’m glad you asked’.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
There’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.’
