Overseas Workers

I am not sure if you guys have recently read the news about a domestic helper's right hand being cut/sawed off by her employer. In my opinion it really makes me think of the countries I want to travel (if the people are hostile to certain race etc.). 

The incident happened when Kashturi told off the police about her working conditions (there is a periodical check of the police with regards to the welfare of Domestic helpers). When the female employer was given a warning by the police; madness, wait it is not madness but HORROR ERUPTED FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL.  The female employer was so enraged that she CHOPPED the Kashturi's right hand. (To read more about the article click  here KickerDaily)

I was so enraged after reading the article. It was sick, an abomination! How could this so called educated woman boss do that to her helper? For certain OFWs or OWs this is nothing new, some are lucky to have nice employers who would treat them nicely while others go to the DEMONS. These catastrophic events do not just happen in the Middle East area but also in other countries. It is not just the harm that they do; there was also an instance where in a male OFW was gang raped by 4 Saudi Men (click this Link and it would redirect you to a short clip about the story back in 2010.). 

This literally pisses me off; what right does that DEMONIC woman have? She treated Kashturi worst than an animal. I suggest that woman get her taste of her own medicine and have her right hand chopped off as well (eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth). Do you think that justice will prevail in this travesty? Yet money TALKS (aka Blood wit/Blood Money). I am beyond upset about these folks; it is not just about the working conditions of OFWs but I also think about the other OWs. Nobody deserves to be treated that way. 

JUSTICE FOR KASHTURI!

DOOM 4

Hello there my dear blog.. Anyways I was busy for the past couple of days so now I am a bit free and ready to create a new post here. Two weeks ago I was watching a trailer for the game DOOM.. It has been stuck in my mind to create a blog about it. 

As you know now that I am fond of streaming YouTube and ofcourse I watch a lot of channels there to watch for walk through/play through of games I am highly interested in. While checking out trailers for new games in MkIceAndFire's channel, I was able to watch the trailer and I was stoked because the graphics for the game is AMAZEBALLS.  

According to Wikipedia; the game will be out around the first or the second quarter of 2016 which is exciting. The platforms for the said DOOM 4 is for PC, Playstation 4 and the XBOX One (publisher Bethesda Softworks).

the GamePlay:
"Doom is a first-person shooter which has "badass demons, big effing guns, and moving really fast" as key principles, according to id Software executive producer Marty Stratton. The game features a large arsenal of weapons, which can be collected and freely switched by players throughout the game. Many classic weapons, including the super shotgun and BFG 9000, make a return. In addition, melee weapons such as the chainsaw, which can cut enemies in half, are also featured. Many enemies from the original games like the Revenant, Mancubus, and Cyberdemon return as well, some of them redesigned. As the combat system of the game puts emphasis on momentum and speed, the game allows players to perform movements like sprinting and double-jumping. A combat system known as "push forward combat" is featured, which discourages players from taking cover behind obstacles or resting to regain health. As a result, the game will not feature any cover mechanics or a health-regeneration system. Players can collect health and armour pick-ups scattered throughout levels, or kill enemies to regain health. A new mechanic introduced in Doom is the melee execution system. It allows players to perform a melee-takedown when players deal enough damages to enemies. Enemies available for melee-takedown will be highlighted. 
The multiplayer is being developed in conjunction with Certain Affinity. Multiple multiplayer modes, such as traditional four-player deathmatch, domination, freeze tag, and clan arena, are included in the game. Power-ups and teleports are also to be featured in the game. Certain game modes feature asymmetrical structures, in which players can pick-up a pentagram in the map that allows them to transform into and fight as one of the monsters featured in the game. The game will also include a built-in tool titled "Doom SnapMap" which allows players to construct custom maps, create new game modes and share them with the online community. (credits to Wikipedia for the information)"
the PLOT:

For the PLOT of the story, you can try to watch the movie DOOM which was released back in 2005 (mind you the actors there are HAWT lol. You can click on the link to be redirected to the IMBD site to know more about the movie)

Can't wait for the gameplay for this. I am excited  and beyond. :-)

To order the game or check out different games Bethesda Softwork has to offer for different platforms kindly click the link and you would be redirected to their Website. You can also visit the main website for DOOM by clicking the link as well,.

So in the mean time you can check out this trailer and let me know what you think!

Mad Max.. THE GAME



I had a play/walk through binge a few days ago; and if you know me personally or have read some of the posts that I have made in this blog.. I ENJOY YOUTUBE a lot.

Lately I went on a binge for the game MAD MAX from MKIceandFire's youtube channel and I was definitely hooked. So for the folks here who would like to know about:

the Game Play:
"Mad Max is a third-person action-adventure vehicular combat video game set in an open world environment and based on the Mad Max film series. It is developed by Avalanche Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.." (Credits to Wikipedia)
the PLOT:
"Max's journey to the Plains of Silence takes an unexpected turn when a group of War Boys (run by warlord Scabrous Scrotus, psychotic son of Immortan Joe) run him off the road and steal his clothes, his supplies, his weapons, and his car before leaving him to rot in the desert sun. Traversing the wasteland in search of his prized Interceptor, Max meets a hunchbacked mechanic named Chumbucket, an overzealous individual that's hell bent on crafting the perfect vehicle, the Magnum Opus. After giving Max hope of exacting vengeance on Scrotus, the two form an unlikely partnership and set out in the base of the Opus in search of food, water, allies, upgrades, and redemption in a world devoid of sanity (Credits to Wikipedia)"
how the GAME goes:
"Mad Max is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game, with a heavy emphasis on vehicular combat, in which the player takes on the role of eponymous character Mad Max (Bren Foster)...Weapons, such as flamethrowers and a mounted cannon, and a grappling hook can also be added to the Magnum Opus. The harpoon can be used in-vehicle with Chum, Max's mechanic, riding along. Max's Magnum Opus can be combined with a V8 engine and a powerful ramming ability to destroy enemies' vehicles and weaponry. Nitro boosts are also featured for acceleration. When simultaneously driving and aiming, the game enters slow-motion and allows the player to toggle between targets. Despite the game having a third-person perspective, players can switch to first-person view when the player is engaging in combat with enemies while driving the Magnum Opus. Chumbucket will also repair the car for the player once the player exits the car.(Credits to Wikipedia)"
Anyways although he story was a bit boring for me (I find it boring sorry guys) what really made me amused with this game is because of the graphics and the GORE. Specially the first scene was totally insane! 

The pro's about the game other than being in an apocalyptic time is more on the customization of Max's car (hello! Nitro?? A friggin HARPOON to pull down those fire tower considered threats..) and the brutally fights (Fury KILL!!). The best ones as well was when the game goes in slow motion when you need to kick somebody's arse.

The con well I just find the story boring (it lacks story for me, it typically revolves about Revenge and shiz and that's it).

So if you would like to watch MK's playthrough just click on the link below and you would be redirected to his youtube page and please follow him you aint gonna regret it.

Limitless Living Coach Jon H.

Limitless Living Coaching from Jon H. 

Just in case you know Jon H is one of Manila's finest DJs when it came to the Hiphop scene and entrepreneur (GreyOne Social , Styles Entertainment , Club Owner Raven Manila).  

On the other side of things he is now also known as a Life Coach, it is someone who helps people identify and achieve personal goals. I feel very elated to have met this person. There were things that I have noticed about him is that he knows what he's doing, he knows how to treat his fans (insert fan girl eyes here) and the positivity he is able to exert. 

I have been following his IG account since IG started and he posts the most motivational quotations as well as how men should treat their women (Patti Grandidge is the QUEEN!) and Truffles. 

Now let's segue back to his limitless coaching; I listened to some of his posts about how to get started on how to reach your goals. This made me think with what my REAL PASSION was. I have to admit that I am very happy that I resigned from job back in July; I have never been happier. Now I have all the time to ponder, I am always getting lost (and falling a sleep LITERALLY) with what I want to do right now with my life.

"People take their lives too seriously ... Take it too seriously you tend to not manifest things anymore" - Jon H

There were a lot of things that I wanted to do right now, I want to concentrate more with taking care of my nephew. Yes there is less to zilch time for going out as of the moment but when my nephew creates a new milestone the joy he brings me is the best. I've been thinking of going back to school again, contemplating if I want to pursue Physical Therapy or what. Currently starting to do research about it. 

What really motivated me right now to find my real Passion was when he said: 

"I don't think about the money but money came... I was more attracting the things I love to do and I gave so much Value to the people.." - Jon H. 

Thank you very much Jon H. for posting your thoughts in IG and Youtube. I appreciate it.  Kindly Check out his IG and Youtube to know more about his Limitless Living Coaching.

When the music stops..

When the music STOPS.. What happens?

I remember back in high school, a friend of mine wrote me a letter about what's going to happen when the clubs close down and the high isn't enough...

Until recently I have never gave some serious thought about it; just now I am still in this little world of mine to mind such of the trivial things she has said. I was known back then to be a party girl and all that shebangs but right now I am snickering when this image of me pops back into my head. 


I don't mind being known as a party girl when they definitely do not know how my Friggin mind works. As far as I know I am anti-social and I enjoy my ALONE time. 

I still don't give a shit when people connect the definition of a party girl to a more negative stuff (the problem with people is that they LOVE TO JUDGE.. Don't WE?). But hell once you meet one I think you would understand the true WOMAN behind that party girl.  

It has been a month that I haven't been out clubbing or partying not because I don't want to go out it is just that I have some main priorities right now that has to come first (and my budget is nearing zilch for the mean time LOL)..

When the music STOPS it does not mean that it will STOP indefinitely but just for the mean time; I still know how to be that wild child and chill for a while but when you are nearing your thirties and see the other kids partying with you I sometimes feel annoyed (maybe that was what some other people thought about me back then ROTFL).

The MUSIC will continue on playing and the booze will still flow (enjoying a cold glass of red wine right now.).. Ever heard the acronym YOLO? Well so far I think I have been YOLOin for quite some time. 

Talk to you soon..

Cartoons and thoughts

I really have to admit that I am a kid at heart; certainly a grown ass woman like me should think more like an adult (which I certainly do). But to escape the reality I am right now, I indulge myself with watching cartoons.

As a 90's kid I grew up watching The Simpsons, Yuyu Hakusho, Daria, Batman animated series to name some. Back then I never understood what the show was about until I reached my teens (the unyielding shenanigans of some of the characters.) on how the topics are typically more for the adults. Many years passed and certain genres have arrived in the world of animation (Japanese anime etc) and the story lines are getting more PG or something.

I enjoy some of the cartoons but there are certain cartoons I don't like as it exhibits that the show is for a specific gender group. I grew up with my brother and I can proudly say that the things that we watched are pretty balanced as I would watch Xmen with him while he watches Sailor Moon with me. There were times I felt bothered that there were toys (ie Toy Guns) that I am not allowed as my parents quoted that it was for boys.

As we speak I am doing a marathon of the Simpsons and such nostalgia is coming back to me, I might be a grown ass woman but I can still relate to the youngins since i get to watch the shows that some of them watch.

Until Dawn

I don't have a gaming console although I do enjoy playing games when given a chance. To quench my thirst for games, I peruse Youtube and Twitch to watch play/walk through of games that I am interested about.

Lately I am engrossed with the adventure, horror, survival game called "Until Dawn".


imaged grabbed from Playstation's Website.

To give you a gist about the game here's the description from Playstation's Website
Eight friends trapped together on a remote mountain retreat, and they aren’t alone.  Gripped by dread, with tensions running high, they must fight through their fear if they all hope to make through the night in one piece.
Play as each of the eight characters and experience fear like you never have before. Every decision you make in your terrifying search for answers could mean the difference between life and death, but for whom?  Your actions alone will decide who survives Until Dawn.
The Key features of the Game:
  1. Gripping Story - What's a game without a story? Let me tell you that upon watching the previews for this game got me hook and not to mention story was written by Larry Fessenden (the movie "I Sell the Dead")& Graham Reznick (the movie "The House of the Devil") 
  2. Next-Gen Horror - You will be using a more evolved "Killzone™ Shadow Fall engine". I dare say that you should be prepared for a lot of jump scares (Mummy! i need my blanket!). 
  3. Choice and Consequences - No brainer for the explanation but what's really cool about this is whenever you start over the game, there would be new choices to choose and the items that you need to finish your objectives will be located in a different area (Amazeballs!).
  4. Butterfly Effect - Think about the "Chaos Theory", it is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change can trigger large differences in the last state (ie like when you touch the water in the pool, then the ripple happens; think of the game called "Life is Strange").
And not to mention that the characters are very familiar such as Hayden Panattieri, Peter Stomare (aka John Abruzzi from Prison Break) and Meaghan Martin (movie Camp Rock) to name a few.

here's a teaser from the Playstation Website and Youtube.



For the walkthroughs/playthroughs go check out these folks' Youtube Channels:
  1. MKIceAndFire - He does the live streaming of the game via Twitch and he also has the no commentary walkthroughs. 
  2. Pewdiepie - You're going to laugh so hard when he gets scared asf, just check out the face he makes.
  3. GhostRobo - It's like watching your younger brother playing the game and the advice of having a warm hot cocoa is really cool. 
  4. GameRiot - He's got this Brit accent and when he get's surprised he'd be like calm


Let me know what you guys think of the game. Til the next Post!

When I started to like the beach..

When I started to like the beach was when I went to Coron, Palawan.

This adventure took trip last month and I had mix feeling about it, thinking about the sun and how dark I was going to be. I was unable to sleep at night due to the excitement and the adventure that was waiting for me ahead.

Took off around 4:30AM to avoid the traffic and we spent around 2 hours or so at the airport. I couldn't contain my excitement and the energy was invigorating. 


 

We had to ride this small BUS to ride the small airplane; it was the same shiz for me but I was blown away when I saw the view on my window. After passing the horrendous (Yes the view above Metro Manila is some what horrible because you see the traffic from there...) view of the metropolis, excitement took place when I saw the sea..


En route to Coron, I get to see these islands and the changing colours of the water from sapphire to turquoise. I felt like a kid again as I saw the beauty of those small islands and the waters.  



Best part of the trip was when we were island hopping from one place to the other; climbing up a mountain to go to the lagoons, snorkeling with the fishes and counting how many jellyfishes we had passed by. 

In every trip there is always a down side to things, but not all the time. We stayed at Casa Fidelis. It was clean; the staff are very accommodating and nice; the variety of FOOD was AMAZEBALLS! But we had some issues with the room I stayed in with my atchi. 

First day at the hostel the screen of the window fell on my head, accidents happen but I was smackledorked that I was no longer in the city. I found it eerie that I started to hear all types of insects and lizards and amphibians that got me anxious. I did not mind it much at first since we were outside so I had to suck it up.   

I don't place the hostel responsible for the blackouts happening but it was uncomfortable sleeping at night (for goodness sake it is the monsoon season but what the heck).

But what I hated most was that our room was like part of the natural habitat surrounding the area.... There were tuckoos mutting out "Tuuu-Ckooo" at night and I found one under the mat (literally under the mat); a lizard that died under my atchi's bed (it was alive before it succumbed to suffocation); a toad in the wash room; and a bat in the ceiling. 

I was BEYOND mortified at night but the things that made me overcome these events was I was with family.  

Would I be visiting Coron, Palawan? - Hell YES!

Would I go back to Casa Fidelis? - Ofcourse! So far they are really hospitable and accommodating that I would surely go back there.

For now looking forward to another beach trip in a few months or so; gearing up with more glutathione arsenal and higher SPF.

Coffee and Free time

After months and months of hibernation; I now have the time to blog (yes!!!).
So far I am currently thinking of what I need to blog about so give me a few hours to whip off some catastrophe.

for the past months I was working as a Quality Analyst for a BPO company and life work balance was taking it toll. I needed to set some personal priorities straight and come the month of July 2015 I decided to pass my resignation letter.

Anyways just writing a few things for now and will be posting some crazy shenanigans soon,

xoxo
