This song on Disney Junior.

We have Disney Junior on our television, and lately the aforementioned channel airs, during commercial, the theme "Dream Big, Princess".

At first, on my mind: "Who is the artist?", "What is the name of the song?".

Until one time, I remember that I have an app on my iPod Touch on recognising songs. The song was "Hall of Fame" and the artists are The Script and will.i.am.

Traffic at Edsa.


Yesterday aftenoon when my older brother, my sister-in-law, my two (2) nephews & I are going to The Peninsula Makati, I took the photo above.

I don't remember where it was taken but it was taken along Edsa.

On my mind before I took the photo, while taking the photo, and after I took the photo, I wish that all the roads, highways, boulevards, expressways, etc. are all in light traffic. And also, on my mind before I took the photo, while taking the photo, and after I took the photo, I wish all the motorists, commuters and the like follow traffic rules and regulations.

Demon Days by Gorillaz.


I remember that na nagkaroon ng sale ang Astroplus malapit sa Landmark Department Store sa Trinoma. And this is the CD I have.

I remember that my one of my brother & I watched movie at the aforementioned mall.

This breakfast meal from Greenwich.


There was a branch Greenwich along F. Ortigas Jr. Road (formerly Emerald Avenue) in Ortigas Centre. It was located on the Ground Floor of the building Raffles Building & beside Starbucks. I don't know why that branch closed. But that's not the pic of this post.

The post is about the Greenwich branches that offer breakfast.

I forgot the taste of those two hotdogs* and that scrambled egg. If my memory serves me right, the drink/beverage I have at that time is Coke.

The photo/picture was taken last December 23, 2011, Friday.

* Depende kasi sa ingredients na ginamit at sa pagluluto.

42nd Saturn Awards

The nominees for this year's 42nd Saturn Awards were announced last February 24, 2016. I was surprised that The Peanuts Movie is competing with films-based-on-comics films: Ant-Man; Attack on Titan; Avengers: Age of Ultron; Kingsman: The Secret Service on the Best Comic-to-Film Motion Picture category. I also surprised that the Japanese film Attack on Titan is also competing on the aforementioned category.

Tacloban Vacation 2016, Day 11

My mother & I had our breakfast at the Downtown branch of McDonald's. This the 1st (first) branch of McDonald's in the City.

We bought some pasalubong. After arriving my aunt's house finalize our things to be packed up.

At lunch ae ate at a carenderia called Dahil Sa Iyo. When my mother & I arrived at my aunt's house, round 4 na yung laban nina Pacquiao at Bradley. And as you already know, Pacquaio won the fight over Timothy Bradley.

Na-informed kami ng tata ko na yang flight ay delayed. Kaya almost 6:30 PM na yung flight namin papuntang NAIA Terminal 3. Kaya past 9 PM na kami ng pamilya ko nakakain ng hapunan.

We ate our breakfast at the restaurant of the hotel. We order Filipino breakfast consists of pineapple slices, rice, coffee, beef tapa for me, longganisa for my aunt, and danggit for my mother. I forgot the rest.

After we ate our breakfast, naligo kami sa pool ng nasabing hotel. At that time, may ilang coaches na nagtuturo ng swimming lessons sa mag bata.

After naligo sa pool ay nagbanlaw kami. Pagkatapos namin sa check-out, ay nagpunta kami sa restaurant para umiwom ng pineapple shake/juice. If my memory serves me right, 150 pesos ang total, lumalabas na 50 pesos per order.

Sumakay ng isang vang Duptours papuntang Tacloban. Pagdating namin sa pisang bakery, smiling kami kasi umuulan ng oras na yun. Dahil may payong ang tita, ay pumunta sa taxi terminal sa isang lugar sa Robinsons Place Tacloban.

That evening, we ate our dinner at Ocho Seafood & Grill. After that we had our after-dinner dinner at Giuseppe's Ristorante Italiano.

Yung pinsan kong lalaki ay bumble ng Tacloban, samantalang kami ng tita ko at nanay ko ay pumunta ng Sabin Resort Hotel sa Ormoc. Before we going to the aforementioned hotel, we ate our "early dinner" at a branch of Jollibee. My mother and my aunt ate Burger Steak while I ate Big Burger Steak. I asked my mother na bumili ng large fries for takeout. And then, we rode a tricycle to Sabin Hotel. Of course, nag-check in kami.

Lumaki yung mismong pool ng Sabin Hotel, nagdagdag sila ng rooms. Around late afternoon to early evening, inikot ko ang pool. Napansin ko na wala yung upuan na gawa sa kahoy. At that time, may kainan na nagaganap. And the same time may mga coaches na na nagtuturo ng swimming lessons sa mga bata. And I went to our room.

After a few minutes, kinulit ng nanay ko yung tita ko, na ikutin yung pool, pinuntahan din namin yung katabing restaurant nila, at yung dalawang area na tapat ng swimming pool at nung restaurant nila. Bumalik din kami sa hotel room namin. Pagkabalik sa kwarto namin, nanood ng TV, at ilang minuto ay natulog na kami.

We ate our dinner at Haiyan Foodstop. It is located at Brgy. Bislig, Tanauan, Leyte. Their potato fries, for my taste, is okay. It is their version of french fries.

And then, we went home.
