BPI Real Thrills December 2011-January 2012

It was only now I learned about the thrills of BPI for December to January 2012. All the while I thought they suspended their thrills since I didn’t get flyers that usually comes with my monthly bill.

Anyway, thanks to Manila Life I was able to know about the latest BPI Thrills. Again, their partner establishment is none other than Jollibee!

NESCAFE is brewing something NEW

I am not a coffee drinker before. However, when I started working I learned how to drink one. At first it was too bitter for me but eventually I get used to it.

Nescafe revamped their corporate site, a new online world of NESCAFÉ Philippines – a world without borders – just curvy lines that go on and on, to form snapshot stories and emotions of what NESCAFÉ ultimately stands for, … [ Continue reading NESCAFE is brewing something NEW ]

Merry Christmas from Mister Donut

We Filipinos start to think of Christmas as soon as the “ber” months arrive. Of all the nationality, I think that we are only ones who celebrate for more than a month. And that’s the reason why we all love being in the Philippines during the holidays. I for one had experienced celebrating Christmas in a foreign land. Yes, it’s nice and you’re with your family but it is really different when you’re in your own country. Iba talaga ang Paskong Pinoy! Maybe the environment makes it so unique as well as the joys you see in the faces of … [ Continue reading Merry Christmas from Mister Donut ]

On our last day, all we did was to shop! Bangkok is the place to be for cheap clothes! We can’t decide how to go about our direction inside the market since it’s too big. We ended up going on way and didn’t explore the side streets. We shopped for 2 hours or so in Pratunam Market first because it was right across our guest house.

Pratunam Market

We need to check out before 12noon because the guest house will charge us additional day if we don’t check out on time. … [ Continue reading September Travel 2011: Bangkok Day 3 – Shopping Day and Swensens ]
