I woke up again up perspiring because of another current black out (which again lasted for two hours).
The country has been in this situation for several months now. And with the proclamation of the new Philippine president this coming end of June, the ending of the black-outs is one of the many wishing thinking Filipino people hopes that this President fulfills.
It has been affecting all citizens, both private and in the business sector. Not to mention of course, the process that are forced to stop due to temporary ceasage of current.
So they say, it's a scheme to save electricity for the country. Hydroelectric plants are even forced to adhere to this strategy due to low water levels that enables the electric plants to generate electricity.
Tracing back the cause of the problem will be beneficial, however it does not answer the problems causing the people now. Measures to replace the shutting off electricity temporarily is a must. Even blaming the past government will not hold water for the meantime.
The eletricity black-outs has just got to stop..it just has to.

3D experience saved Shrek
I have always been a Shrek fan..the latest movie on this animation didn't exactly have the best story but it was better than the last one.
SHREK FOREVER AFTER..however, it was the 3D version of the film that made people go and kept them interested , despite of the the last Shrek review. It had me going also..and 3D does give animation and movies a different experience.
The story was predictable. It has always been a story of somebody who missed being himself/herself because of love and that they didn't realize it until what was important to them was lost. And of course, it will always have a happy ending.
Puss (not anymore in boots) was fat, and that was the only thing that was funny about him. And few minutes after his character was revealed, you would know that somehow, he would be wearing his boots again.
Donkey...cool as ever but I anticipated a longer scene of Donkey befriending Shrek. In this movie when Shrek went back to the past, Donkey didn't know him. Donkey remained terrified with Ogers, but only at the site of Shrek crying then he trusts this Oger again. Somehow, I was expecting a lot of funny struggles to resolve the trust issue.
But for a first timer in 3D..it was like watching cartoons for the first time. Davao just had cinemas in 3D and since the costs are too high (P250 per movie), people would rather choose the movies in non-3D.
Now I had my chance already, watching movies in 3D gives you a different feeling when watching movies, which was added of course by the chairs that shake each time monsters run (they're called SHAKER seats). It's definitely true that you become part of the movie when u watch it them in 3D.
With that.. Shrek was worth watching, especially in 3D.

Krispy Kreme donuts It is..
KRISPY KREME donuts are to die for!
Krispy kreme donuts are among the best selling donuts in the Philippines. It's the only thing i want any person to bring me if they go to manila for a conference, travel or something.
There's nothing better than a sweet donut, inside out. I prefer the new varieties though i had my cravings for ORiGINAL GLAZE DONUTS quite a long time. The best variety would be the NEW YORK CHEESECAKE. It's so delicious you would thank whoever invented this. It's loaded cheesecake filling topped with cream cheese icing and dusted with graham crackers. Even at one bite, one can taste the fullness of it's taste.
Taking the second spot would have to be CARAMEL Kreme Crunch...It is so mouthwatering that it will leave you wanting for more. It's filled with caramel-creme, dipped in choco icing and topped with toffee crunch. (Merely describing it makes me want it already)
In general...all of Krispy Kreme donuts are the Best ever. You can enjoy eating them with hot coffee, iced tea or even water. Too bad, Krispy Kreme is not sold in Davao...so never leave Manila without it.
