This is a shot of my son and his favorite playmate, Chamy, my bestfriend’s sweet daughter. They both are having the time of their lives here. This place is a wonderland for children and even adults. No entrance fee, but the amenities therein are great. A real fun place for children.
The available shops are all kid friendly. Trendy clothes shops for children, children’s haircut place even a spa especially made for them. That was the first time I saw a spa for children. This place is really something else. There is a huge area covered by Timezone on the second floor. My son especially had fun doing the train ride that went around for around 10 minutes just circling the second floor area. I have to add that the way this place was constructed was excellent. It was interesting how they were able to squeeze in a legitimate hanging bridge. We hope to bring our son back to this fun place again soon.

This was the hotel we stayed in October of last year. It was a frontbeach hotel which gives it a head start over the other hotels in that place. The service was good. The location is along the highway so that gives this hotel another plus for accessibility.
We stayed in an airconditioned family suite with cable TV and room safe vault. This place is also ideal for business people because they offer free internet access and this place has also hotspot availability. Although it was kind of uncomfortable when we see girls which we are not certain if hospitality girls around their Mai Tai Bar and Grill, I guess it is expected of places around Olongapo and Subic.
For Twin Sharing (3D/2N) their rates start at PhP3,365/pax, which is not bad. This hotel and resort offer quality service. This is the perfect hotel to arrange your booking if you would be looking for a place in Subic to just go home to for the night. Because it is basically expected that when you go to that place you would check out theme parks and places around the area which Subic is very famous for. All in all it was a good stay for our family and my bestfriend’s family. This vacation was actually a treat from my best friend, Gina.

This is hands down one of the smartest baby things I have ever discovered since I gave birth to my little guy. I remember having to go through the motions of boiling and getting scalded. Plus the danger of over boiling and leaving the stove fire on for minutes on end. It is just so taxing and time consuming doing the boiling hassles.
Chicco Sterilisistem allowed for me to have more play time with my little one. Why would I need to get that extra time for boiling and get myself scalded when there is this handy and guaranteed anti-bacterial solution for my dear child’s teethers, bottles and teats. I love this system!

Philippine Normal University. This school is supposed to be the country’s best school to mold future top notch teachers. I don’t know but in the two days that I attended their famous review classes, I am really disappointed. Should I say that this school has been over rated? Maybe. Maybe not. I’m not really sure. The fact that it is their first time to hold this review schedule might just be the reason.
First day- the lecturers on English and Literature were good ones. A command of expertise on their subjects are evident. But the third speaker on Sociology just drained the patience out of me, even of the other reviewers inside the auditorium. I swear almost half of the class were sleeping. He did not have the slightest command of expertise on the subject that he is lecturing about. His monotone voice definitely just lulled everyone to sleep. He kept on running in circles while he was discussing. He would jump from one topic to another, without warning. In fairness to the speaker, I honestly believe that he is not the one assigned to do the lecture. The fact that he came in 40 minutes later than scheduled backs this theory. The “original” lecturer must have gone MIA or something, and he was just pulled out of nowhere to do the job.
The second day, which was yesterday after the first lecturer on Filipino was done, we were left to wait for more than one hour. Count, one hour and 15 minutes, until all of us reviewers agreed to just have our lunch and get right back after. Tell me, where was this school’s decency to at least get someone to the auditorium and announce that the lecturer for Science is not showing up. This is them communicating “disrespect” for the reviewers who enrolled for the review. Yes I am upset. And if they do not do anything to explain what happened the first two days of the review classes, I will always have this “tag” on them. They just can’t take the reviewers for granted like this just because they have a good reputation. These experiences I had in this school give them a bad name and if they don’t shape up and get themselves organized, word of mouth will have it and people will know eventually.
I still have nine more sessions with this school and I sure hope that they will redeem themselves through the way they conduct the sessions. I really don’t have very high expectations. But come on, having reviewers wait for more than one hour for nothing is just about too much.
