Eat, Drink or Marry an Aussie: Celebrating Australia Day at Skippy's Bar & Grill

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Yup! I'm actually exaggerating on the title, particularly on that "Marry an Aussie" part. But who knows, there's a;ways a possibility. A night of mingling with new-found friends from Australia could lead to something more intimate other than just sharing a night of drinks while listening to the live band, watching sports channels, or playing a few game of billiards or darts.

Just a few days before the Chinese New Year is another well celebrated event recognized all over the world - Australia Day! Since this is not my first time to celebrate Australia Day at their place, you may want to read my previous article about it so you'll get an idea.

If you are one of those that enjoy a fantastic time shopping for healthy breakfast items, or attending the wine masterclasses, at the Australian Festival held at the Marketplace by Rustan's in Powerplant Mall located at Rockwell, Makati, or you are also sending your good luck to Caris Tiivel on her Miss Universe 2016 bid, then that could mean you love everything about Australia. Perhaps you may also enjoy your nights hanging out at bars where Aussies are frequent.
The night of January 26 was reserved for lots of eating, drinking, chatting and everything else beyond and in between. I have to admit I'm not the extrovert type who loves going out and spending the night hours at a bar or anywhere else that has intoxicating liquor or spirits as a prime commodity, but but it's somehow different at Skippy's Bar & Grill. You can read the articles from the links here so you'll get to know more about this restaurant located at Forum Bonifacio Global City (BGC). It's just opposite the site where Mercato Centrale is held and now there's the Maybank Performing Arts Theater just across the neighborhood of this business. leisure, arts and entertainment center of Taguig city.

Get Lots of Savings Everyday with Groupon Coupons

Who doesn't want to save his or her hard-earned money? Of course, we all want to get the best deals out of everything, so saving a few more bucks by getting discounts or using coupons in purchasing certain brands would be a great help especially when accumulated. You'll be surprised how much money we saved when we finally compute it all. When we sum it all up, that's a lot of savings for us.

I remember one of my friends taking advantage of these discount coupons when shopping for her groceries. She actually was the one who influenced me to try them out too. Whether it's for a product or service, for a restaurant or boutique in a mall, or for a salon or a car wash service, for concerts or theme park attractions, we both loved the idea of getting a few bucks off from the regular price. It was the beginning of a habit for us to keep on collecting them for future use. We found ourselves discovering new brands and services, and visiting both near and far places just to gain the discount. We were surprised seeing ourselves using brands we never patronized before.

But our recent discovery made it a lot easier for us to get more deals. Instead of searching around in magazines and newspapers, or waiting for these special promos from the mail, or e-mail or social media networks like Facebook, Groupon Coupons made it easier for us to save money on the purchases we make online. The best thing is that we don’t have to pay for membership or other fees because It’s totally free!

It also meant no more long distance travelling to far-flung places since we could search for coupons usable near our locations, may it be from our home or office. Those near my friends, I could recommend or point them out to them if ever they have not seen it yet. We could also get all the best deals from our favorite brands, plus the coupons that we can't find anywhere else because they are exclusive to Groupon Coupons. The possibilities for great deals are almost endless that we'll never run out of great things to buy.

Imagine getting the best deals just infront of your computer or using a smartphone. It is so convenient and allows you not to miss out on all the opportunities. They also have social media pages like Facebook and Twitter that would provide you with more information and updates.

If you want value for your money, Groupon Coupons is one way to go, and may even be the best option!

#SayItLikeMalacanang: The Best Interpreter for Maxine Medina Goes Viral

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Warm felicitations to one and all this Sunday afternoon. And so we say, Mabuhay!
Many would say that the best interpreter can be found in the Philippines. But we would not limit it to the presidential spokesperson Ernesto Abella or the communications operations secretary Martin Andanar, and the rest of the gang who speaks in behalf of the President - though they all couldn't stop Rodrigo "Digong" Duterte from talking shit, they still try their best to come up with twisted interpretations of what he said so he would still look, or sound, good even though he is arrogantly unstable in matters of thought and speech.

Just as how Malacanang would want a "Tangina mo" to be interpreted "objectively" or should we say "politically positive" only for their side (The president is currently stressed out because of lack of sleep and he did not take his lunch), or blame the media saying "Media wrongly distinguished a culture-driven dialect into a urban cursing. This is out of context." We couldn't help but frown and scratch our balls in amusement especially when we were all called as "Presstitutes" - media outlets that are so biased that they misquote the President and the truth of the matter they're all bullshit.

Malacanang would say "We find that there is no instances of cessation of life in the manner ascribed to by naysayers and critics alike." When the President Duterte said "Mayor ang dapat mauna," Malacanang would translate that as "Women should be respected and treated equal."

What followed were "derogatory remarks subsequently laid out by the world never was alleviating; it brought me into my repugnant remnants." That, ladies and gentlemen is Malacanang - Giving us "Alternative Facts" before "Alternative Facts" was ever a thing.

So netizens had a lot of fun coming up with many "interpretations" or "highfalutin" statements out of the obvious, and used the hashtag #SayItLikeMalacanang. This happened because of our Culture of anti-intellectualism or smart-shaming.

The dictionary was invented for things like this, that we may have more things to do than just write things up. Run-on sentences are a must! Identify the event, the subject, tell something about the subject, and then the event.

Let's take a cue from The Palace and exercise our creative thesaurus usage! Below are just some of the #SayItLikeMalacanang showing how witty Filipinos are:
