Wandergirl is Cherrylie in real life. She’s been so obsessed with blogging and the word “wanderer.” She has since used this pen name after reading it from a novel (about a free-spirited girl who just so love to travel) some years back. Read More...
A month ago I blogged about the Backstreet Boys holding a concert at the Araneta Coliseum Feb. 27 and how excited I was to make a reservation for two in the Lower Box section. I thought I wasn’t going to make it after I failed to claim the tickets and made a 2nd reservation attempt, again, only to fail claiming the tickets. Eventually, I ended up buying the tickets at the SM Department store in Cubao. Whew!
On the day of the BSB concert, I met my hubby at the Gateway mall an hour and half before the start of the show. I couldn’t contain my excitement, that even I had not taken dinner yet I prodded my husband to line up at the venue and just buy food once inside.
Seated at the 3rd row, I can clearly and nearly see everything happening on the stage. Wow…as in super wow…Nick, Brian, Howie, and AJ are soooooo great on stage. I was shrieking left and right and almost lost my voice, while my husband was just letting me enjoy and absorb everything.
As expected their repertoire consists of the all-time favorite hits of BSB including Quit Playing Games, All I Have To Give, The Call, Larger Than Life, All I Have To Give, Shape of My Heart, Everybody, I Want It That Way, Show Me The Meaning, and a lot mooore!
I just wish I brought with me a good set of video cam so I could have a more clearer video recordings of them. Next time I will definitely keep that in mind and make sure to get a VIP ticket…lolz.
Summer time is quickly approaching and with that comes so many sickness around for children and adults alike. And because getting sick these days is counted as a major expenses, looking for the bestmedigap policies is must to consider. After all, you wouldn’t want to invest your hard earned money to some medical insurances that doesn’t properly deliver its promises, and when it comes to our loved ones health we only want what works best for them!
It’s called the one-heavy-meal-a-day diet, which I have been doing for two weeks already. In this regimen, I only eat one full course in a day, and that means the rest of the day is only about eating salad or munching on some light snack.
Somehow, I can’t believe I am actually surviving…kudos to myself for that. But honestly, it’s a lot harder than I thought, not to mention a little more heavy on the pocket. The last week has been especially not too budget-friendly for me, because I really had to look for a fast food chain that would serve me something healthy and of course no-rice or less carb menu.
That’s when I realized I have been frequenting Kenny Rogers Roasters’ and ordering their healthy meal variety, my favorite being their Classic Healthy Plate. I take it for lunch and surprisingly makes me full even when it’s dinner time. But again, it’s a little too expensive if I’d go for it every day. So, I really have to think of an alternative if there is, otherwise, I’m stuck to this kind of stuff for the meantime until I am somehow able to shed those post-pregnancy fats in my body…lolz.
It was my sister who broke the good news to me, which I immediately validated after a quick Google search about Backstreet Boys doing a 2010 live concert in Manila come February 27 at the Araneta Coliseum.
Ok I am soooo excited, can I just say! I am so in-love with this group from the very beginning, but ironically, I was not even present when they had their first and second concert here in Manila. How sad can than be, right?!
I checked Ticketnet this morning and I just read some comments that VIP seating is already sold-out…WHAAATTTTT???
To be honest, their tickets are quite pricey, but I’ll think about that later. What matters now is that I already made an online reservation for the Lower Box seating (P3810) this morning and I’m waiting for a confirmation, which according to the message I got will either be emailed to me or someone will phone me.
Ticket prices are as follows: Patron VIP (P4760), Patron (P4280), Lower Box (P3810), Upper Box A (P2860), Upper Box B (P960), and General Admission (P480).
For ticket inquiries and reservations, contact Ticketnet at 911-5555.

For days now, my husband and I have been seriously discussing about getting our daughter a term life insurance. Why not? After all, it’s always better to be safe now than sorry in the end.
But then again, considering the number of insurance companies that have closed down recently due to global recession, one can just be very careful and wise in getting the best plans there is. In our case, we have started checking insurance companies online and have also been asking people we know who are investing in one to get term life insurance quotes. Because really, we do not want to put our money into plans that won’t cover the best policy for our daughter’s future.
When I was in California some two years ago for a business trip, one thing I have instantly noticed are the ranch sites and high-end neighborhoods in one of the cities in Orange County. And among the most noticeable thing about them are the high and beautiful fences that surrounded the properties I passed by to and from the office everyday within the two weeks of my stay.
I am greatly impressed and amazed by their gates that every time I’d go back to my hotel, I am always excited to surf the web and look up for where I can possibly get inspiration for my own residential fence once I start building my dream house. Surprisingly, there have been so many sources to consider such as San Diego Fence Company, Custom Gates San Diego, and Vinyl Fencing In San Diego, to name a few. Though a beautiful house is in itself more than enough to make several heads turn twice, a good fence always adds more aesthetic appeal to it. And if you’re someone saving up for your future dream house like me, always save a portion of your budget to a well-built fence.
Oh well, Rosanna Roces will not be the Rosanna Roces we all know today without her acerbic and scathing words. And ABS-CBN should have known better how capable she can be for saying whatever she feels like saying, even if it means getting a show suspended or axed for good. Though there is no escaping the fact that she made a very uncalled for remark against teachers in general, still, the blame should not all go to her.
The week has been so kind to me. On Monday, I got myself a foot spa and a pedicure. Tuesday was time for a scalp treatment and hot oil to rid off the itchiness in my scalp and get back the gloss to my hair which has been dried out caused by too much stress at work. And late this afternoon, I treated myself to a one hour full body massage at Cosmedic in Trinoma mall.
Wow, it felt really great to pamper yourself once in a while! The massage was such a delight. However, unlike before when I’d usually take oils, this time I tried powder for a change. It was smooth on the body, or perhaps I just so happen to get my favorite masseuse.
Now, I’m thinking what could be next for tomorrow…lolz.
NOTE: This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Eye-Fi. All opinions are 100% mine.
One of the major things I love to do during social gatherings or when I’m on a trip, is taking pictures. And I love it even more when I can easily upload those captured memories in my Facebook account to share with friends and family.
This could have been fine, except that sometimes it’s too much of a hassle when I misplace the card reader I frequently use to upload pictures or videos.
Two days ago, I came across this dilemma once more. I couldn’t locate my card reader and I couldn’t wait to upload and see the pictures taken during the Christmas holidays. Really, it was very annoying when something like that happens and pictures stay still in the camera, when I could have shared it to my sisters who have kept bugging me about their pictures so they can upload them to their Facebook account, too.
I was just about to give up when I heard about this new innovation that could make you go wireless in transfering photos and videos from your camera to your computer.
I’m talking about Eye-Fi. The idea is simple, memory card plus a wi-fi, and you get a super easy and convenient way of uploading pictures from your camera to your computer without sweating a thing. Simply, turn your camera on and you get your images flying out where you want them sent.
To give you more details about this newest and exciting innovation, check out the video below:
Geez, I can’t wait to get my own Eye-Fi card and enjoy the easiest way of uploading pictures in my Facebook account.
