Asian Massage : A Strees-Free Relaxing Afternoon


Wazzup Pilipinas!



Tuesday,  October 15, 2013, marked  another  exciting day of my life as a wife and mom because my husband brought me to the number one pioneer in massage since 2005, the ASIAN MASSAGE.

This is located at Greenrich Mansion Building at the back of Richmond Hotel in Ortigas. I tried the Seomyeong massage using Japanese Moguza. 

Amy, the therapist gently massages my entire body starting from my back, legs, feet, hands and lastly to my head. It was a magnificent feeling. I was relieved from my stress both in work and as the light of our home. I thought having a massage is somewhat leisure and need not have it at all but I was totally mistaken because it enlivens us to become fresh and worry free again.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

We Run MNL 2013 aims to inspire, motivate and unite Filipinos to move more, move better.

The Nike We Run MNL (Manila) returns for a third edition to inspire, motivate and connect runners around the world. On 1 December 2013, 15,000 runners are expected to take to the streets of the historical Marikina City and run the 10km in celebration of the spirit of unity that is significantly Filipino.

“For this year’s race, we have incorporated the personality of the people of the Philippines to motivate and inspire them to lead a more active lifestyle. Filipinos are kindred spirits who, without hesitation, unite for a good cause and help each other. Taking this, we hope that every Filipino runner can inspire and motivate another and run the race together” says Courtney Cole-Faso, Country Marketing Manager, Nike Philippines. 

In the spirit of unity, runners must sign up for the race with a “buddy”. This is to encourage runners to constantly motivate each other to achieve their goals in preparation for the 10km race. Nike will organize training sessions in November to help runners prepare for the race. The training sessions will be conducted in various locations around the city, and runners will participate in Nike Training Club, get tips from athletes and get an experience only Nike can bring.

Silk Road of Thai Bistro : Another Great Reason Why You Need to Try Out Thai


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Never did it came into my mind that they will be calling a meal a "Son-In-Law". Well, I guess the newly-opened Silk Road Thai restaurant at Bonifacio Global City wants to be a little more creative and intriguing for their customers.

Silk Road is actually owned by the same people responsible for one of the best Thai restaurant in Manila, Thai Bistro. The brains behind this new Thai restaurant is no other than Chef Cecille who has gone a lot more creative and fancy with her new baby. She has been focusing her strength to make this new restaurant unlike no other.

Well she boasts of being the only Thai restaurant with top-class menu, authentic Thai ingredients, and food and beverage consultants.

Another Thai restaurant? The difference is that there is a bit more fusion in her dishes here, and the ambiance was specifically designed more for an intimate day with your special someones. Unlike the Thai Bistro at Robinsons Magnolia which is a family restaurant, Silk Road is an ideal place where you are more inclined to take your partner and propose, and most likely get a resounding "yes" as an answer.


Get edUKated : United Kingdom... Here We Come!!!


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Who doesn't want to study abroad and rub shoulders with students from all over the world?

I would love to be among the lucky ones to get the opportunity to study in a foreign country and immerse myself to different cultures. It will be both a fascinating learning experience and an eye-opener to further expose me to the rst of the world.

I wouldn't want to get stuck in the Philippines. I would enjoy a few years earning a degree outside the country. I guess many people really look up to those who are given the chance to excel thru world-class education brought about by studying at a prestigious school.

At the Get edUKated event held at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, many young people were given the opportunity to learn more about the probabilities of studying in the United Kingdom.


UKEAS, the leading UK educational advisory agency in Asia, continues its strong campaign to encourage Filipinos to invest in their education with this blockbuster exhibition.

Giordano Spring Summer 2014 Collection


Wazzup Pilipinas!


Giordano makes its Philippine Fashion Week debut with a Spring Summer collection that offers sea-side glamour and earthy appeal while staying true to its clean and casual vibe.

Providing essential and timeless fashion for all, the new collections, Holiday Cruise and Linen Story – up the Spring Summer 2014 ante with nautical elements, updated chambrays, summer linens and oxfords in crisp pastel palette.

All aboard cruise lines with posh beaches for stop-overs, Holiday Cruise is inspired by luxurious travels and sandy shores. Starting with a selection of Breton tops both for male and female paired with oxford and linen shorts, the look is reminiscent of the easy French Riviera fashion. The nautical theme sails on with a plethora of chambrays and various fabrics like Tencel® offered in a range of washes and prints from heavy indigo to washed-out shades. Transitioning from the blues to a more summery palette, lightweight oxford shirts complete the Holiday Cruise collection. In solid chalky hues, the shirts look smart under a cotton blazer or worn as is. A few dresses add some feminine touch to the entire collection, while male polos with pieced patchwork keep the preppy charm.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Today is the day when we will see the initial telecast of Philip - Lifestyle Guy, this morning at 11 am on TV5!

From his humorous "It's More Fun with Philip" lifestyle magazine and talk show at TV5's news channel, Aksyon TV, Philip Abadicio now has a show on the TV5 main channel which promises to be more interesting and within reach of Filipinos.

During the press launch held at the Rub Ribs & BBQ restaurant located in Kapitolyo, Pasig, the lifestyle show host relates that they will be showcasing both hole-in-the-walls and elite establishments. It will be like a roller-coaster ride where an episode could feature a favorite restaurant just within your neighborhood, and a first-class restaurant situated in a five-star hotel. Thus the show will touch on all things of interest to all levels of society.

The show will let you experience various lifestyle genres, at the confines of their own living rooms, and with the fun factor added by Philip and his guests, I'm sure the show will be another big hit!
