ABS-CBN “Gift-Together” Project: Bringing Families Closer this Christmas
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 20th, 2012
Christmas is one of the best times of the year. It's actually my personal favorite. I don't know how to explain it, or what kind of atoms and molecules are in the air as the "ber" months approach, but Christmas makes us feel and do weird things. It makes us feel warm and cuddly, it makes us feel generous and happy, most of all, it makes us feel and remember the people we love. Christmas is a time to love. When I think of Christmas, I...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Superbook Reimagined: Are You Ready to Relive the Adventure?
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 18th, 2012
Superbook...hmm... ring a bell? Superbook was a cartoon series back in the 80's that encouraged moral values, faith in God and more. Basically, the superbook is the bible. I grew up watching that cartoon! What I loved about it is that it didn't really "push" or "force" kids to reading the bible, but it highly encouraged it through its fun and interesting episodes. Whether you were an avid fan back in the day or a first timer, the Chr...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Mizuno BE Shoes: The Recovery Shoe For You
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 12th, 2012
I was invited to the launch of a new pair of shoes from Mizuno last Dec. 6, 2012. The e-invite sent to me didn’t contain much information about the shoe except this picture below: What exactly COULD it be? I was imagining a minimalist running shoe, but how could it be inspired by that bundle of hay resembling sandals on the left? My curiosity was definitely aroused, and I had to see exactly what the buzz was all about. ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (675 )

Boysen KNOxOUT Helps Knock Out Air Pollution!
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 10th, 2012
Living healthy in a very air polluted environment is not really good for you at all, take for instance running or cycling along EDSA. It would actually do you more harm than good. What is worst is that it won’t really help if you are a bit further away from those busy highways because air pollution from these roads spreads to a 4KM radius. Cars are almost a daily necessity in a megapolis like Metro Manila so it would be hard to co...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )
