The Halloween celebration is one of the most awaited events every year, especially for kids and kids at heart who have a penchant for spooky things and playing dress-up . While this year’s celebration might be different than usual, don’t that let that stop you from wearing your favorite costume and enjoying all the candies that you can at home!
Another chapter in our lives unfolds in the beginning of each year. 2020 is extra special since it is also the start of a new decade.
We all await exciting opportunities for a fresh start and new beginnings in our personal lives and of course in our blogging community. No matter what your goals are in 2020 or how many new year’s resolutions you plan on making this year, we should always find time to celebrate and reminisce all of your experiences from 2019, whether good or bad; and welcome the new year ahead with hope and positivity.
For eight consecutive years, the Filipino Bloggers Network {FBN} hold its annual get together and this year it will be a fun pan pizza party in Quezon City.
It will surely be an afternoon of great fun, awesome giveaways, delicious food and a great opportunity to make new friends and catch up with old friends they have not seen for a while. Representatives of different sponsors, PR groups and brands are also expected to grace the event and personally thank bloggers and social media influencers who have supported them in the past years, or should we say at least in the last decade.
FBN currently has a membership of more than 2,000 and continues to expand as it provides a venue for Filipino bloggers, vloggers, and online writers and influencers to interact with other members and partner brands from different parts of the Philippines. Moderating the discussions and posting opportunities from different sponsors for the group are co-admins Divine RC, Richard Mamuyac and Lariza Garcia, the annual event has become even bigger on its 8th run.
Expo Mom is one of the things I’d love to visit whenever the exhibit is on at the Rockwell Tent in Makati City. I’d travel a few hours to the city, along with my little man, just so I can check out the latest products on display, the interesting talks + the intermission numbers on the stage. My last Expo Mom experience is no different + I must say it was not only mum who enjoyed it. The little man also had a wonderful time checking out the toys on display + trying some of them out!
Upon entry to the exhibit, Jared found this table of toys + he does not want to budge one bit from his chair. He was so consumed by the toys he found + abandons the interest to move on to the next booth. It really took us a while to cajole him to check out the other booths around! We got free diaper samples from that particular booth.
It was a good thing the little man is up for checking out the rest of the exhibit, we have checked out a number of other booths + bought a couple of items for the little man including: a Guess tee {I got for P350}, an Okadi capri pants {my most expensive loot for the day, costs me P900, but I love the fabric + the item was imported from France}, a pair of Firefly toothbrush {I opted for the lighting varieties this time instead of our usual musical choice}, a pair of Tiny Buds Rice Powder {I even got a free wipes along for this purchase ;)}. I also bought 3 pairs of underwear for the little man, in Handy Manny, Mickey Mouse, + Toy Stories designs. Thought, they’d come handy when we start potty training later next month. ;)
Apart from the items I bought, I also got a few sample items from some of the sellers, as well as freebies included in the Expo Mom loot bag, that by the time we are ready to leave for our other destination that day, my new Mommy Mundo bag is teeming with samples, brochures + new stuffs for the little man.
Kudos to Mommy Mundo for another successful event + looking forward to the Expo Mom Bazaar come December! :)
This mum has always been fascinated with the stars + back when I was a little girl, I would spend hours gazing up in the sky, waiting for a falling star so I could wish on it! I also love looking at the full moon + would always try to locate Polaris wherever I go. + I would love this to rub in on my little man. Needless to say, I was excited when I was invited to witness the launch of Skyxplore, a new Mobile Digital Planetarium, held at the Diliman Preparatory School on 18 April, 2012.
Skyxplore, the country’s first of its kind, is a 7-meter diameter Digital Mobile that opened in May of last year. The device consists of a digital projector which evenly distributes light from the machine onto the dome, thus giving the participants inside a perfect view of the sky above us, sans the smog + the pollution! It also provides a larger-than-life view of the heavenly bodies, including the myriads of constellations, the galaxies, + the planets. Embark on a tour of the celestial creations + feel as if you are standing at the edge of Mars or Saturn! What’s best is that you can even see sunrises of the past + check out future meteor showers + solar eclipses!
