An Evening With Greenwich And John Lloyd Cruz

-
I am not a fan girl but when Greenwich invited the Negros Bloggers to a meet and greet with John Lloyd Cruz last October 18,  I decided to go.  The invitation was for 7 PM, but I was there early because I had everybody's VIP passes with me and so that we can get good seats, but to my chagrin the cordoned off fountain area was almost full.  It's a good thing that Ms. Charo, Marketing Head for Greenwich Vis-Min area was there and she brought me to our reserved seats.

The program started with some Barkada games and then, the parade of masks.  The masks were entries for the Greenwich Masskara Mask-making Contest and one of the judges was the super-talented Mr. Jojo Vito of Vito Masks and Design Gallery, and also an active member of  Negrense Blogging Society, Inc.   Right after the mask presentations, came the much awaited arrival of John Lloyd Cruz!

John Lloyd introduces Greenwich's newest product, the Pizza Thin's, super thin, crispier and tastier crust with 3 cheese and premium toppings.  My favorite right now is the 7-Cheese shown below,

Of course, the evening would not be complete without a picture with John Lloyd Cruz.  In person, this guy is really cute with boy-next-door looks, and very charismatic. I found myself lining up with the rest of the guests for the photo-op.  He greeted us like we were old friends and it is this natural charm that makes him so appealing.  Now, I no longer wonder what Ruffa Gutierrez, Shaina Magdayao, and Angelica Panganiban saw in him ;-)   He's the type of guy that every mom would wish her daughter would bring home.



The event ended a little past 8 PM and we were treated to a Greenwich dinner of pizza and chicken. While waiting, a little commotion (and lots of screaming) happened at the counter.  It was John Lloyd working the crowd...this guy really knows how to woo people. 

Greenwich and John Lloyd Cruz...a perfect match!

Love Me Forever, A Parent's Love

While we were browsing at a bookstore, my son who was a pre-teen then found this little story about a mother and her son, and showed it to me.  It was a touching read but looking at the price, I thought it was too expensive for a children's book...so we put it back.  But I never forgot the story.  As my son grew up, I would remember the story and wish that I bought the book.  Last February, I was tasked to give a talk on "honoring our parents". As I was preparing my slides, I thought about the message of that book and how apt it would be for my talk. However, the only thing I can remember was the story line, the picture on the cover and nothing else. So I started searching on the internet...and many hours later, I found it...Thank God that today everything is in the internet!  The book is " Love me Forever " by Robert Munsch .  Here is a video presentation taken from YouTube. After my talk, I showed this video and needless to say, there were not a ...

#MakeITsafePH - Online Safety For My Pre-Teen And For My Peace of Mind

The widespread use of the internet has given rise to the emergence of internet-related crimes such as rape, theft, bullying and piracy which made the public, especially the youth, very vulnerable. I have a nine year old (soon to be ten) daughter whose online presence is growing day by day. This is something inevitable and so, for my peace of mind and for my daughter's online safety, I have established a set of rules regarding internet usage.

The "Pwede Na" Mentality...Mediocrity as a Life Principle

-

I was driving to work this morning and as usual, I found myself getting annoyed by many wrong practices but commonly done by people that it got me thinking (while waiting for the traffic lights to change)... are these people either clueless or plain thoughtless that they are doing the wrong thing, OR are they people who know that they are doing wrong, but are inconsiderate and plainly just don't care, OR these people are aware that what they did is not quite right but then everyone is doing it, so they might as well do it too, OR people are so used to mediocrity that this has also become the principle they follow in life.
