How was your New Year's Eve celebrations folks? My extended family and I had a lot of fun watching fireworks from neighbors' houses. That's the best way to keep safe, in our opinion.
Anyway, since we're already talking about fireworks, let me share with you a video I took during the finals of Enchanted Kingdom's 1st...

We're entering a new year tomorrow and, for most people, it's a great time to think about all those goals we'd like to achieve for the next 12 months. If you have kids, you may also want to encourage them to set achievable targets so they'd also learn more about self-discipline and the joys of earning well-deserved rewards.

I saw Tron: Legacy two nights ago in IMAX 3D and was figuratively blown-away by its state-of-the-art technology and cutting-edge visual effects. I salute the creators of this film because they must have been showered with excessive imagination and creativity when those were handed out. They did such a great job with the...
I just got wind of this earlier and just had to share. I am really partial to anything blue and like best the design at the back of the P1000 bill. I'm also glad that whoever finalized the designs placed President Cory Aquino beside her husband, Senator Ninoy Aquino, in the P500 bill. It is a fitting tribute to two great...

Life is one big classroom. I have always believed that learning is not, and should never be, confined inside the school setting alone. The same goes for the pursuit of excellence. Not making it to the honor roll doesn’t mean a child can’t excel in other areas.
Personally, I am not too keen on putting too much pressure...

I really was amazed at how fluid...

Thus, it is always with excitement that I look forward to any musical or play that is being staged in Manila because I know I’ll get to once again watch...
