🍋 Pomegranate Fruit AKA Granada Fruit - My First Time In Marinduque.

The pomegranate with the scientific name Punica Granatum is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub in the family Lythraceae that grows between 5 and 10 m (16 and 33 ft) tall. In the Philippines, it is famous as Granada Fruit.  It has been studied that Pomegranate juice is a powerful anti-inflammatory because of its high concentration of antioxidants. It can help reduce inflammation throughout the body and prevent oxidative stress and damage.



The first time that I saw a Granada Tree with abundant of fruits on it was when I traveled to Marinduque a few years ago. I remembered, heading to Ka Amon Cave – there was a household that captured my attention because of its colorful fruits. I was under the impression that it was a guava tree but our tour guide told us that it was Granada Fruit.



While staring at the trees and getting amazed, the owner of the house noticed us and went out of the house. She was smiling and offered us the ripe fruits. Depending on the variety and degree of ripeness, the seeds of the pomegranate can vary in taste from only a little sour (similar to ripe cherries) to fairly sharp (similar to uncooked cranberries). It can be enjoyed straight by simply eating the seeds, in any of a number of pomegranate-derived goods, or as a juice. But I ate it straight from the tree. It was sweet and a bit of sour yet it was tolerable.

Actually, it has been years past by since I visited the Province of Marinduque. And I just remember how the locals were truly welcoming to us. And surely, I’ll be back to this province sooner.

📸 HOW HARD DID AGING HIT YOU? #10YearsChallenge.

Majority of us do not admit the fear of getting old, getting petrified of the wrinkles that sooner will exist in our faces, and the freshness will start to evaporate as time goes by. Our minds tried to ignore the beauty of life as we focus on how we become aesthetically pleasant and we forgot where we came from, how we started?

Recently, a unified hashtag became a trend in social media #10YearsChallenge and #HowHardDidAgingHitYou. It became viral as you’re challenged to post your picture 10 years ago and your recent picture adjacent to it in your social media account. Undeniably, it is fun to browse your old photos so that you can join such an online challenge and at the same time you’re reminiscing your happy memories.

📸I decided to look for my old pictures and here are some of my old photos.

I was in my second-year college. We're creating a video for our LAW subject.

My first time in the Manila Bulletin Printing Building in Intramuros City. 

With my Classmates Economistas’ Outing the Cheapest Way Possible in Siniloan, Laguna.

Night Scene in Thunderbird Resort, Binangonan Rizal

Visiting Vicente Manansala Historical Landmark in Binangonan Rizal.

This was my first time to go to Thunderbird Resort in Rizal with my colleges from the University's Publication.  

 This picture - I must say, this was the moment that I wanted to delete in my past. Let's just don't talk about it.

Remember that days when you rent a VCD or DVD in video city. Those where the days when Netflix doesn't exist and we never thought it will exist.

When I was college, I joined numerous school organizations and it shows in this picture on how I was tired of all those extracurricular activities aside from my academics obligation. 

PGT aka Pilipinas Got Talent, Yeah! I also auditioned there one time. Mataas lang talaga pangarap ko when I was young but I didn't make it. 

LOOK AT THAT HAIRSTYLE - Long back hairstyle was becoming a trend at some point in my college days. It was really fun looking at these pictures and remembering how I looked like that time. 

When I started working and earning money for myself. I had this experience wherein I spent the majority of my earning into parties, bars and having a fun time with "friends". It was just a stage that I had no regret when I became older but it taught me a lot.

I was once a TAMBAY SA COMPUTER SHOP, this was my college days wherein I have to spend much time in the internet shop with friends to avoid staying at home. 

My first call center was in ALORICA  located in Alphaland Magallanes. I had fun working there and I learned how to survive in a stressful environment - CALL CENTER.

During my college, I enrolled in ROTC as an elective and the fun part was I even joined a training to become a cadet officer. Until now, I don't even recall as to why I let myself involved in difficult training - maybe I just want to prove something.  

I also joined a HipHop Dance Group during my college even though it was just a short span of time. 

It shows in my smile the success of my Thesis Defense.  

This was my OJT aka on job training in MERALCO main office at the Salary and Benefits Department.

When I was 16, at that time when the popular Rakista looks went popular. At this early age, I already worked in a Bakeshop somewhere in Caloocan for a living. 

My childhood was fun since I grew up with my grandparents in the province of Bohol. 

What I remembered during my college life - I really loved getting pierce. I had piercing in my nose line, my both nipple has a ring, my navel, and etcetera.

This was during our Brainstorming session with The Pillar Publication when I was college. We went to a hill located in Tayuman, Binangonan Rizal just to gather our ideas and put in writing for the next issue of the University's magazine.

With my cousin when I was 14 years old in the Province of Bohol where I grew up and spent my childhood there.

Bohol - and All Its Natural Beauty.

When you think of Bohol, you immediately think of three things: chocolate hills, white sand beaches and those adorable tarsiers. And yet Bohol is so much more than that. A trip to this famous destination is like immersing yourself in nature and all the beauty it has to offer. No wonder it will always be in any wanderlust’s bucket list.

The Beach

Sunrise at Dumaloan Beach Resort

Before Boracay became the “Tita place” it has now become as some millenials would point out, Bohol is on top of anyone dreaming about a beach escape sans the nighttime parties that could sometimes get too crowded and rowdy (think LaBoracay). Panglao, an island that is not too far from the mainland, also boasts of powdery white sands and crystal blue waters. Guests who long for the perfect getaway from the stresses of city life will surely find it in the calm and tranquil beach scene of Panglao.

Morning at Dumaloan Beach Resort

The Adventure

If you’re one to look for adventure, there are so many activities in Bohol to choose from.

Eco Adventure Tour

Thrill seekers will have the time of their life in this adventure center. They can go trekking into a historic canyon, go kayaking in Wahig river, or climb up the canyon walls. And if those aren’t enough, they can opt to try the other attractions like the two-way zipline aptly called “Suislide” or go on a death defying bungee jump called “The Plunge”. Definitely not for the faint hearted!

Loboc River Cruise

If slow and steady is more your type, then cruising the calm river waters of Loboc is the way to go. This famous river cruise gives its guests the chance to go into the depths of the forest as the winding river cuts through it - this while getting a glimpse of the countryside as it traverse the inner towns. Having lunch while being serenaded by local musicians completes this ultimate nature experience.



Chocolate Hills ATV Experience

Most tourists check out the world renowned Chocolate Hills through the 214-step viewing deck. But unknown to many, it is also accessible via an all terrain vehicle or ATV. In the town of Carmen, visitors may opt to see the hills up close and personal by going on a muddy ATV ride. Perfect way to break in your new GoPros and shoot those drool worthy IG stories!


The Wildlife

Who can think of Bohol and not remember the big, soulful eyes of the tarsier? Tarsiers, considered to be one of the smallest primates in the world, can be found in two sanctuaries in Bohol - one in Corella and another in Loboc. Gone were the days when it was allowed to hold them in in your hands. This was prohibited since it was found out that these poor, nocturnal creatures are stressed by the presence of all the humans around them. Tourists can still see them in their natural habitat and they are frequently found hiding behind leaves or sleeping while perched on a tree branch. If you’re close enough you can even have a picture with them. No flash photography though!

Man Made Forest.

No Bohol trip is complete without passing by the Bohol Bee Farm. This organic farm and restaurant offers delicious, freshly prepared meals. Their crowd pleasers include the squash bread, the beautiful flower salad and the Buzzz ice cream! Of course, the real stars of the show are the honey bees. As part of the tour, the resort will show you the honeycombs and the different by-products of their bee cultivation like pure honey and salad dressings. This eco- tourist destination also supports livelihood projects so be sure to checkout the different products being sold at the farm.

There’s so much to Bohol than meets the eye. Whether you’re looking for something new and exciting or you’re more into the cool and steady vibe, this destination will always have something to offer. Bohol’s nature rich paradise is surely worth coming back to time and again.

🎙 EP6 - In Commiting a Relationship Which is Important - Heart Versus Mind? 💘 - PODCAST

Everyone probably has at least one, if not many, relationships they knew they shouldn’t have gotten into it. Your mind is most likely the culprit every time this happens. You analyze a guy you encounter and try to rationalize getting into the relationship for a variety of reasons. You may be bored, have poor options, or recovering from a disastrous relationship, and he just may be the best of the worst. Your mind could possibly be thinking a million things like, well this could be convenient, he likes me so much, or in my case, he seems all right, I guess this could work.

Advertisement by Google:

All these things usually pertain to the great personality traits of the guy and ignore how strange or horrible he probably is, causing your brain to temporary silence your heart shouting “Don’t do it!” in the background.

Logic is equally as important as remembering what your first instinct was and listening to what your heart is telling you. Yes, your mind is rational and reasonable, and it has helped you figured out so much in life, like mathematical problems, or how best to strategize other areas of your life. However, when it comes to matters of the heart, isn’t it best to listen to your heart? When you have gotten into a regrettable, brain-induced relationship, you will quickly see things souring. You will notice an obvious grimace on your face as you reject one of his calls, or when you ignore his text message. You will blow every misstep on his part out of proportion, because inside you know you never should have been with him.

 Even though you have already declared yourself as part of a committed relationship, in a short while your eyes will start to wander to other men. Soon everything in connection with the relationship will get so tedious and distasteful, that you will just try to avoid it all and escape to your friends.

If you are experiencing these symptoms of an all logic based relationship, it is advisable to be get out of the relationship as soon as possible. You pseudo-significant other, in most cases, won’t realize that you aren’t really into it, so you should just end it before it causes greater heartache for them, or causes you greater break-up guilt. You should always follow your heart, but also take into account what your brain has to say, to make you the most happy. Time isn’t running out. Be patient and find someone who your heart and mind both agree with. This will save you from spending countless hours from determining if you are in the right relationship or treating the other person as you should. You will know it’s right, when a person satiates both your mind and heart perfectly.

🎬 NETFLIX - Romanticizing Suicide, Murder and S*x Problems But…

It has been 10 months since I signed up for this paid-streaming site named Netflix – not because I wanted to be always in the loop and just to be cool every time my officemates talk about what’s in their weekend’s list “must-watch” movies. But I just want to maximize my newly purchase Smart TV where-in Netflix is one of the pre-installed apps (not to mention Opera only offered Youtube and Netflix in their app store).

Since then, I started to get hooked in this platform, for the reason that - I can watch high quality movies and series that are produced for worldwide consumption - at the comfort of my bed whenever I want. I can pause, rewind and download those; aside from watching in my Smart TV, I can also watch those in my laptop and my android phone as well- such a convenience, isn’t it?

From then, my weekend habit is to indulge my PHP550 monthly subscription for this addictive platform (aside from Youtube of course). Here are my three series that I’ve watched.

📼 13 REASONS WHY? Series - Romanticizing Suicide But…

RATING: ⭐⭐⭐

🎥Watch:

When it was originally released on March 31, 2017 – it became talk of the town among Philippines’ young professionals. Undeniably, I can’t even talk about it since I wasn’t aware what is “13 REASONS WHY?” is all about as I don’t have to capacity to access Netflix that time, unless I can find it in torrent sites.  But when I already bought my TV, I then watched it.

13 REASONs WHY is American series with 13 episodes in season 1 and followed with another 13 episodes in season 2, after two years.  Telling the story is kind of unique to me because it uses narrator’s voice all throughout the season to tell the story among others like showing dialog scenes and B-rolls. I admit, on the first episode was boring for me, as building the foundation of the story is not that rigid to begin with. But after understanding and kept watching until I reached the third episode, it began to please my imagination asking the question “WHO TO BLAME THE DEATH OF HANNAH BAKER?”, until I realized that I finished the 13 episodes in one setting with numerous cups of coffee, eye bags and anything that associated with sleeplessness (excluding crystal meth, LOL!) .
Advertisement by Google:
This series’ concept is putting glamour of suicide and I maybe a liar if I didn’t appreciate the fact that ending my life, if need arises is just okay – after watching such “lame series” but had powerful impact to my emotion. Yeah it is lame for me, as a Filipino consumer – I didn’t understand visually the activities that are shown in the series e.g. house party among students; Filipinos never (that I am aware) practice such recreational affair but why I was hooked with such dark story that isn’t culturally relatable to me as a Filipino. Is it because it showcases the other side of suicide where-in we’ve always taught that it is bad.  It is honestly, impacting to me, what more to those who are emotionally unstable and was able to watch such series that explain how easy and understandable to end up one’s life as soon as you reach the dead end of the road.

The “tapes” are just means to let the “creative writer” to convince the viewers to stay up until the end of the series. It was like hypnosis to each of us- to just hold on into each episodes and the retention is extremely powerful that Netflix was able to persuade me - to stay awake for 12 hours (with no fast forward of course). “13 Reasons Why” is a good and relevant story whom no one paid attention but it happened. It romanticizes suicide but no other way of catching viewers’ attention without putting glamour of a subject matter that is no one is talking. To glorify the saga of suicide.

📚 YOU Series - Romanticizing Murder But…

RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

🎥Watch:

Yeah right! It is all about murder, a murderer and how he ended killing lives that are involved in his own life. “You Series” is an American psychological thriller web-television series. The main character is a good-looking man, bookstore manager who crosses paths by stalking to an aspiring female writer. They’ve been in-loved to each other to the point of – how many lives were already sacrificed to just continue the so called relationship. The mind torturing part is, even the main character can afford ending his girlfriend’s life because of various instigating situations happened.

Indeed, same thing with “13 Reasons Why Series”, aside from watching the whole season in one straight night, the story also uses narrator’s voice the whole show to acquaint with the story.  Well, don’t blame me of comparing this series against “13 Reasons Why Series” – aside from they’re both streamed in the same platform, they’re both mind and emotionally disturbing. This story don’t need gruesome images to tell how mind impacting the story is; just by showing in the eyes of the actors, using the orange tone of the color grading process and both static and dynamic shots of the scenes seem essentials to add up the total thrill of the story.

Unlike with “13 Reasons Why Series”, where-in majority of the images specially on daytime e.i. school scenes- are color saturated and the vibrancy of its pigments were extremely increased - to show the youth-ness; “You Series” with its dull orange and tilt, it help the story became more heavy and dramatic. I must say it became more matured story.  “13 Reasons Why Series”, used tape as a way to increase viewer’s retention and “You Series” used books to connect each dots of the story. Both used, momentous tangible symbol.

Watching this story till the end; seemingly watching the story behind the story of TED BUNDY – a good-looking and well-educated serial killer who killed 30 young ladies. It is to understand the tale of a man why he killed the people – it is because those people also brought heartache to him, those people instigate him to kill them, unconsciously.

Well, murder is a mortal sin but why after watching such series – it felt like it is okay to commit murder. Does passion of crime applies in this situation to escape the law, or should mental issue can be used to excuse such punishable crime. It is a battle between the result and why the crime has been done. It is question of being rational versus emotional. It is a question – who is really a human, the killer or the one being killed.

I must say that this series really gives me bothersome, because the underlying reason why man  can kill were highlighted and the storyteller was able to clearly narrate the story to the point that I can even say – it is okay to commit murder if need arises.

Indeed, YOU Series; Romanticizing Murder But…it is also an eye opener to all of us - paying attention and considering the two sides of the coin. There are two stories that need to be heard.

🍆 S*X EDUCATION Series - Romanticizing S*x Problems But...

RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

🎥Watch: 

I’ve been told and been heard this statement “Brain is the most powerful s*x Organ”. And partly, I must agree on it. Indeed, this series supports its statement.

At first, the title itself makes me interested in watching this series; you knew what I meant darlin’.  I was a victim of clickbait, lol!

 S*x Education is a British comedy-drama which I must say that the acting of the characters are way ahead of the acting skills from the two previous series that I’ve mentioned above – due to the fact it is British, my Gosh! We all knew they have standards in acting, unlike here in the Philippines, just because you’re in the Pinoy Big Brother‘s house and people love you, you’ll become actor (lol, I’m just being honest).

Anyways, back to this British thingy. This was premiered on 11 January 2019, and the algorithm of Netflix pushes me to watch this. When I opened my TV, that was the first one that I saw and by reading the title – it catches my attention, don’t judge me.   The story evolved as "a socially awkward high school virgin who lives with his s*x therapist mother and teams up with 'whip-smart bad-girl' named Maeve to set up a underground clinic to deal with their fellow students' weird, taboo and wonderful problem.

What I like about the story, diversity and inclusion both race and gender identity was practiced. You can see, Asians, Indians, White and Black were equally had chance to shine. Moreover, issues about LGBT e.i gayness and lesbianism were also tackled despite of its religious hinders.

It is comedic, seems watching American Pie Movie, but so weird feeling because whenever your libido starts to arise – a dramatic approach of the story will automatically exist; and your feeling changes drastically. I must hate Laurie Nunn – the proponent of this comical story with a heart. To be honest, comedy is the only way of telling such taboo topic which not all countries are open to talk about it. This may lead as an easy way of telling the story –make it lighter and funnier. Can you imagine talking about “s3x predicament” in a scary way e.g. horror or thriller? Seems like a salty ice cream!
