A Relaxed Lifestyle in LAROSSA - The Urban Botanical Community

Tweet

We always dream to have something that will mean a relaxed lifestyle for us and our family.

Last Friday, I had an enjoyable tour at LAROSSA, an Urban Botanical Community right at the heart of Quezon City, accessible to many prime necessities for your convenient and easy living. LAROSSA in Capitol Hills is conveniently located near places of discovery, productivity and recreation.

Located at Bgy. Old Balara in Zuzuarregi Road and Capitol Hills Drive, LAROSSA is near  to schools, workplaces and recreational centers. It is just few minutes to University of the Philippines, UP-Ayala Technohub, Ateneo de Manila University, Mirriam College, Ayala Heights and Capitol Golf Course, and SM North Edsa and Trinoma Mall.

The Larossa Community provides residents with an ideal living environment that is serene, nature-filled and at the same time convenient in location and amenities.

 It offers a lifestyle touched by nature, in an unbeatable urban location.

Finding an urban community that inspires the enjoyment of simple things for the family, home, serene community, It is a wonderful mix of old and new,  tradition and modern. The place was huge with the trees standing tall and most trees are 100 years old! 

Larossa, the 36,401 square meter mid-rise residential is the official flagship project of Primehomes Real Esttate Development Corporation. They are working around the nature with 65% open space and 35% building space.

Primehomes is a very young real estate developer whose team is composed of 40% architects which make their company a design-driven organization.

Ms. Amica Sophia M. Paulino, the Chief Marketing Officer of PRIMEHOMES, shared us that PRIMEHOMES goal is to preserve the property’s century-old trees and to allow an intimate interaction with nature.

PRIMEHOMES nurtures the environment. It was master-planned to preserve the site’s pre-existing trees and natural features. LAROSSA is cleverly designed to make use of the natural shade of the majestic trees for a calm and cool atmosphere where residents can unwind and pursue leisure activities.

There are different pathways for jogging, walking and biking around the gated community. These pathways are connected by pedestrian crossroads for safety and are lined with lush landscaping for visual amusement.

Larossa in Capitol Hills Quezon City is beautiful place and has a stunning peaceful quality about it that draws people in, whether as tourists or as new residents of the country.

Primehomes offers the most desirable units in Quezon City in terms of design, quality and affordability.

Star Cinema Brings Together Enchong Dee, Xian Lim, Enrique Gil and Kean Cipriano in THE REUNION

Tweet

Star Cinema pumps up the silverscreen with its ultimate 'barkada' movie event of the year titled "The Reunion," which gathers four of the most promising actors of their generation--

Enchong Dee, Enrique Gil, Kean Cipriano, and Xian Lim. 

Directed by Frasco Mortiz, "The Reunion" is a coming-of-age comedy flick that follows the adventures and misadventures of Lloyd (Enchong), Bogs (Enrique), Pat (Kean), and Joax (Xian) after their life in high school and now as they struggle to pursue their passion for music and their respective life goals.

"The movie will present the journey of a high school barkada who reunited after so many years to trace back their lives and search for the things that went wrong and the people that they've hurt in order to change their future," said Direk Frasco.

Meanwhile, lead stars Xian and Enrique shared that the whole cast are so thrilled to finally watch their film which is said to be inspired by the hit songs of the legendary 90′s Pinoy rock band, Eraserheads.

“It's like the 'Bagets' of the new generation, so expect a lot of comedy. It's a tale of friends simply having fun,” said Enrique. Xian, on the other hand, further shared how excited they are to hear what their fans had to say about their film. He said, “I really hope that a lot of people will get entertained with our movie. It has a great cast and an equally great director.”

As they relive the fun of their high school years and trace back their mistakes, will Lloyd, Bogs, Pat, and Joax finally make things right and positively change their future?

A fun-filled story of friendship, love, and life, "The Reunion" also features some of today's most in-demand young actresses including Jessy Mendiola, Megan Young, Bangs Garcia, and Julia Montes.

Completing the cast are Matt Evans, Tom Rodriguez, Joseph Marco, Ivan Dorschner, Brian Santos, Alodia Gosiengfiao, Kakai Bautista, Louise Abuel, and Gina Pareño.

"The Reunion" will be shown on cinemas nationwide on August 15, 2012.

Summer Getaway to Palpalokada, Burgos, Ilocos Norte

Tweet

Enjoying the trip to Burgos, Ilocos, Norte. Burgos is the last town in the northwestern part of Luzon, about 47 kilometers north of Laoag City. It is coastal town with rugged hills and mountains lying between the towns of Bangui and Pasuquin.  Burgos has a heritage structure called the Cape Bojeador Lighthouse, also known as Burgos Lighthouse.

After we stayed at the Santuario de Maria Retreat House we went up to Palpalokada led by Burgos Mayor Cresente Garcia. Mayor Cris Garcia, is helping create greener pastures from additional livelihood via tourism.

Palpalokada, Burgos, Ilocos Norte. Pal-loka is an Ilocano term given to handmade sandals/slippers, made of used rubber tire for the soles and rope for the uppers, popular in the olden days. Palpalokada may translate to “their slippers.”

Experience cliff horseback riding in a place local vaqueros call Palpalokada. Horseback riding around Palpalokada and down and up the neighboring cliff and rock formations gives you a powerful view of the West Philippine Sea.

Palpalokada is something else. The view from the top was overwhelming. Make Palpalokada your summer getaway. Enjoy!

A Thousand Words (2012)

Tweet

He only has 1,000 words left to discover what matters most! 

After stretching the truth on a deal with a spiritual guru, literary agent Jack McCall finds a Bodhi tree on his property. Its appearance holds a valuable lesson on the consequences of every word we speak. Norbit director Brian Robbins re-teams with that film's star, Eddie Murphy, for this comedy about a smooth-talking man who discovers that he has only 1,000 words left to speak before dying.

Eddie Murphy is Jack McCall, a fast-talking literary agent, who can close any deal, any time, any way.  He has set his sights on New Age guru Dr. Sinja (Cliff Curtis) for his own selfish purposes. But Dr. Sinja is on to him, and Jack's life comes unglued after a magical Bodhi tree mysteriously appears in his backyard. With every word Jack speaks, a leaf falls from the tree and he realizes that when the last leaf falls, both he and the tree are toast. Words have never failed Jack McCall, but now he's got to stop talking and conjure up some outrageous ways to communicate or he's a goner.

He starts the film barking demands into his cell phone, then grimacing when his wife, Kerry Washington hands him their toddler. He fakes a phone call from a wife in labor in order to line-jump at Starbucks. He mistreats the little people in his life, like his harried assistant (Clark Duke), who has to tweeze all the non-yellow-moon marshmallows out of his boss’ Lucky Charms. And above all, he talks a blue streak: In a typical bit of let-me-spell-out-the-subtext dialogue, he announces to a staff meeting at his agency, “This is what I do! I can talk anyone into anything!”

Then, after he lies to a placid guru , Cliff Curtis, while ignoring a spiritual message about the value of silence, Murphy becomes magically bonded to a tree, which sheds a leaf for every word he says, or writes, or even communicates. Once it loses all its leaves, Curtis says, it will no doubt die—and Murphy with it. In theory, the resulting enforced silence leads Murphy to understand which words are truly important, and absorb the value of stillness and self-examination. In practice, he mostly learns that if he doesn’t constantly fill the air with chatter, everyone around him, including Washington, Duke, his boss Alison Janney, Starbucks barista Jack " Kenneth the page" McBrayer,   and others will leap to the most idiotic conclusions imaginable about what his huge gestures and silly faces are attempting to convey.

A Thousand Words is a comedy and drama genre movie, directed by Brian Robbins and written by Steve Koren , which is rated PG-13 for some sexual situations including dialogue and drug-related humors.

This movie really looks heartwarming and hilarious with Eddie Murphy, a comedic genius with immense talent. Enjoy this movie and you'll think about what's important in life while having great laughs along the way.
