I wasn’t aware of planned itinerary for the day. I was hoping that Sentosa is part of it. They say, an hour trip to Sentosa is not enough, and going to Sentosa should be a whole day trip. I dropped Sentosa in my mind and concentrate on the road while the bus takes us to our destination.

My eyes are locked on the road thinking that this kind of facade might the year 2050 in the Philippines. That this kind of facade is impossible for corrupt politicians to take in action of. All of a sudden, Mica borrowed my camera and took a photo of me and pondered “You’re emo.” Oh yeah!!

Clark Quay Clark Quay!” says someone from the bus. Out of the blue, I realized that we just hit our 1st destination, Royal Selangor.

Arrival at Changi
Can someone tell me what exactly are these? It looks like cargo ships. But cargo ships of what. Interesting

Arrival time at Changi Airport is 9:20 in the morning (no time difference from PH). Changi airport is way peaceful than of Manila. No picture taking allowed but I attempted and a lady-like-lesbian airport officer come and told me to delete the photo I took.

What’s really with PLDT Watchpad

Posted by Ada on Category: Toys and Gadgets | 2 Comments

Are you an internet addict who spends time in front of the computer more than watching TV or movie? Would you believe that there is a certain broadband provider which offers an optimal experience with the use of internet?

I remember way back in 2002, our first internet connection was the dial-up. I just browse, Google, and download songs apparently at 3 to 5 kbps, lol! See how slow connection we had back then! Until YouTube, online games, social networking sites, and download sites emerged in 2006. I guess you have already seen this Panda Piano Musical PLDT Commercial in TV or YouTube.

When you say broadband or DSL connection, PLDT MyDSL would be the first thing that would pop-up in your mind. PLDT MyDSL is already a distinguished brand which offers internet service since the internet boom in the market.
