Exploring Manila with my Asus Zenfone 4 Selfie Lite

There's No Place like Manila.

My ideal summer vacay? It'll be a trip to the awesome beaches of Palawan or get up North to my happy place that I call Baguio.  But when I was younger, summer vacay means staying at home and or playing on the streets that I do and I grew up to. I was born and raised in the beautiful city of Manila. But even being here and living in this lovely city for 30-ish years, I admit I haven't explored it to bits. Now that I'm more into creating my content for the blog I have this idea that maybe, just maybe I can start exploring the city and share it with the world. Naks! I sound so dreamy! Follow me?

Exploring Manila and What's Left of Summer 2018


Watch My "Sangla" Experience on my youtube channel

Finally, I had my first mag "Sangla" experience!

And it was surprisingly exciting and amazing.

Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.

A couple of months ago we applied for a small loan. This is meant for my children's tuition fees and school supplies + my supposedly birthday getaway too. I don't know what gotten into me but all of a sudden  I realized it's  May 28 already. And the loan we applied for? we have not yet received. The beach trip that I really wanted for my birthday? It didn't happen. And the enrollment? still not done. What's worse is that our electricity bill ballooned from P2500 to P4500 and wait there's more... Ricci was bitten by our furbaby Chubby! OMG What's happening to us? I have checked our cash on hand + emergency fund and it was just enough to cover the bills and the groceries. I decided to forget about the beach at baka mag beast-mode lang ako with the expenses. So, Pwede na ba himatayin mga momshies???


Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.






Mudrabells cames to rescue.
Mother's Instict is not a myth. Naramdaman ata agad ni Mudra may kailangan ako kahit di pa ako nagsasabi. Pinahiram ako ng kanyang gintong yaman. Hahaha, Yes! "Gintong Yaman" is the word for my moms necklace. Ingat na Ingat nya ito. I remembered joking about it pa nga na "Ma, yan ba ang pamana mo sa akin? Pwede bang i-claim ko na?" ayun pinandilatan ako ng mata. hahaha. 

So this is it... ito na ako sa Cebuana Lhuiller. Oo, sa Cebuana Lhuiller agad-agad. Dahil dun lang daw ipagkakatiwala ni Mudrabells ang gintong yaman nya. Tried and tested na nya pala na mataas ang appraisal doon. Oh, diba, suking-suki?. At sa lugar namin halos bawat kanto may Cebuana Lhuiller! With 2500 Branches ba naman nationwide. Tingin sa kaliwa, tingin sa kanan beshie, at may Cebuana Lhuiller na maaasahan!




An Instant Cash sa Biglaang Pangangailangan.
Pawning is simply money lending with security & collateral.

I've seen people doing it too, like "Sangla" is a way of life, a way to cope in times of need. Pag may biglaan bayarin sa school, may nagkasakit or na-emergency-hopsitalization, pang-gastos pang requirements sa pag-apply sa trabaho, pang-dagdag sa pang-debut or pang pagawa ng bahay.


Pero siempre, matigas ang ulo ko, nag-keme-keme muna ako sa ibang pawnshop. Pinacheck ko, ayun nagulat ako kinikis sa bato yung kwnitas ni mama, sumulat yung kwintas sa bato!!! Para akong aatakihin sa puso... nako yare, magmamarka ba yun? ayaw ko nang tingan. Lord, sana wag mapansin yun ni Mama. 

After that, Mudra's gintong yaman was appraised at Php13,xxx. And I'm not happy, kasi 20k and kailangan ko. So, I pushed going to Cebuana Lhuillier. Actually, kumakabog dibdib ko, di ako sanay. So, I politely asked the staff on duty:

"Sir, first time ko po mag-sangla, paano po ba?"

-Cebuana Lhuiller Staff: Ganoon po ba? Madali lang ito ma'am, since first time mo, kailangan mong mag fill up ng registration form. titingnan ko po yung item and aalamin natin ang value and if ok sayo ang appraised value, i-process na sya for sangla. 

Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.


Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.


So, here we go, this is how to sangla na... a black box lined with black velvety fabric pops out the window. OO, na-amazed ako sa pa-box where I'll be putting Mudra's gintong yaman for them to check and appraise. Doon sa una kong pinuntahan abot-abot lang sa tiled counter. Muntik pa kaming magholding hands ni koya. 


I signed the registration form, presented a government-issued I.D.,  have my to sangla / to pawned item appraised.

Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.


And it was appraised at a whooping rate of P19,xxx. Shocks! What a big difference!!! It is pretty close to my target budget which is Php20,000. So this is it, this is really it!  I will push to Sangla na!


Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.


Next is to sign the Sangla-form or pawn ticket or mas gusto ko yung term ni Pappi dati, the Papel de Ahensya thingy. sounds good! hahaha.

Note: This is for those who agreed to the appraised value of their item to be pawned. If you are not happy with the appraised value, try your luck na pataasan pa, gamitan nyo ng charm. Mababaet naman sila. Also, during this process, you have to sign that clear plastic pouch and mini pink slip. That is where your pawned item is to be placed, tagged, sealed and stored for safe keeping.

Paano Mag-Sangla? + My Thoughts About Pawning.


And then, Processing happens. This will just take about 5minutes or less. Ito pa ah, may linya silang "Basta Sangla, Walang Pila". Ayos diba? From there, you have to secure your pawn ticket, sign it and collect the money.

Basta Sangla, Walang Pila sa Cebuana Lhuillier

That was pretty fast and easy!

That's it! Also, ang saya for me, finally kasi Mag-Sangla Skill Acquired!!! Dali i-congratulate nyo ako dahil solve na ang pang tuition at pang swimming ng fambam!!! And the next time I'll be in need of fast cash, I'll be on my way to Cebuana Lhuillier, Alam na!

It is when I see food, that's the time I will eat... a lot. Hahaha! Kidding aside, I love Seafood so much, but it's hard to find a decent place with the freshest catch to feast on without having a heart attack. Not because of the seafood's cholesterol or eating too much but that trending news about having that bill shocking experiences in some of the "Paluto" places out there. Now, there's a new place just around Manila that can satisfy your craving and take you to the next level of seafood indulgence. The Seascape Village Market.

Tonisito Umali, Undersecretary for Legislative Liaison Office, External Partnerships Service, and School Sports; Kevin Mauricio, Consumer Marketing Executive and; Lester Castillo, Sports Marketing Executive


Igniting Students Interest in Sports

MILO Consumer Marketing Activations Executive, Kevin Mauricio shares MILO Philippines’ vision of getting more students nationwide into sports by providing an interactive glimpse into basketball, volleyball, and football through the MILO Champ Camp.

Bringing Sports Closer to Barangays


The Barangay MILO Liga will modernize sports facilities in grassroots communities across the country and encourage residents to become more active through sports, said MILO Sports Executive Lester Castillo.

Building a Nation of Champions

Vice President of Nestle Philippines Inc., Willy de Ocampo, proudly announces two new MILO Sports programs for schools and barangays nationwide: MILO Champ Camp and Barangay MILO Liga. 


MILO Launches New Sports Programs for Schools and Barangays Nationwide


MILO Champ Camp aims to teach over one million students nationwide the basics of basketball, volleyball, and football, encouraging them to get into sports and learn values for their holistic growth over the next two years.

Barangay MILO Liga will refurbish three hundred barangay courts and provide opportunities for the youth to be more active in sports and realize their potential to become future champions. 

MILO Philippines continues its unwavering commitment to give the Filipino youth more opportunities to get into sports with the launch of their newest sports programs, the MILO Champ Camp and the Barangay MILO Liga. Over the next two years, these programs aim to bring sports closer to grassroots communities by engaging over one million students and 60,000 parents through the MILO Champ Camp and over 500,000 residents in 300 barangays with the Barangay MILO Liga.

“MILO is proud to kick off these two latest additions to our growing portfoilo of grassroots sports programs, which will be offered for free. It is our hope that by reaching out to different public schools and barangays around the country that more parents and kids will realize the value of sports, and ultimately build a nation of champions,” expressed Willy de Ocampo, Vice President, Nestle Philippines, Inc.

Reinforcing sports in a child’s holistic development 
with MILO Champ Camp 

For many years, MILO has had a longstanding commitment to supporting educational programs by providing students access to sports and encouraging them to lead active and healthy lifestyles. The MILO Champ Camp is a nationwide school tour that aims to spark the interest of students for sports and promote the importance of the values learned through it.

In partnership with the Department of Education (DepEd), the MILO Champ Camp will tap skilled youth coaches to teach elementary students the basics of basketball, volleyball, and football, while offering parents insightful talks on the value of getting their children into sports and the importance of giving proper nutrition and energy to start their day. This year, the MILO Champ Camp will roll out in 300 public schools in key cities around the country, estimating participation of 500,000 students and 30,000 parents.

“Learning continues outside the classroom, and we at MILO want to reach out to both parents and kids by providing an interactive glimpse into popular sports. We want to introduce the basics of popular ball sports by offering a hands-on experience for elementary students, and give importance to sports in the child’s overall development,” said Kevin Mauricio, MILO Consumer Marketing Activations Executive.

Bringing sports closer to grassroots communities with Barangay MILO Liga
The Barangay MILO Liga seeks to elevate the yearly community-based tournaments during the summer break through the rehabilitation of facilities and sharing of MILO’s sports advocacy to residents of barangays across the country. By refurbishing basketball courts and mounting events that will unite the community and encourage children to participate in dynamic gameplay, Barangay MILO Liga will help Filipino youth become more active, and inspire residents to become more engaged in their communities.

The Barangay MILO Liga program, which spans 100 barangays in as north as Baguio and as south as General Santos City for its maiden year, also aims to modernize the community’s sports facilities, transforming them into MILO Courts of Values. Improvements to be made include repainting or restoration of basketball courts and supplying brand new sports equipment. 

“All these efforts are being made so that the barangay’s young residents, and even children from surrounding communities and nearby schools will have access to well-conditioned sports venues and become inspired to go out and play. We want to encourage kids in the barangays to become more active through sports, and not be too consumed with their gadgets,” said Lester P. Castillo, MILO Sports Executive. “We envision Barangay MILO Liga to be a training ground for young athletes to pick up at least one sport, develop their skills, and hone their character as future champions. We are very thankful to the barangays who have partnered with us to rally behind this advocacy.”

The Barangay MILO Liga began mid-March and is set to culminate in their respective barangay tournament finals sometime late April to May.

“We are very honored to have this meaningful partnership with MILO in advocating sports to the youth. Both the Barangay MILO Liga and the MILO Champ Camp are admirable programs that extends values education of children outside the classroom,” shared Usec. Atty. Tonisito Umali of the Department of Education.
