My Camaya Coast Awesome Getaway



First Visit

Another wonderful breath-taking nature experience at Camaya Coast.
I was very excited because that was the first time I rode a ferry coaster. I was quite nervous imagining how it feels. We arrived at Esplanade Terminal very early for the registration and waited for our boarding time. They have good security as they checked carefully every passenger's ticket pass with a valid ID. Be sure to keep your ticket because that will also be your claiming slip for your free lunch. We are seated in the VIP section where we have enough space for our things and we can also charge our gadgets during the travel period. The coaster is very clean.

We arrived at Camaya Coast earlier as expected, we travelled just 1 and a half hour . As we got off the ferry coaster, we were all amazed as the beautiful awesome nature welcomed us. We walked through a floating inflatable bridge that also gave us a different feel – it’s as if we were swaying with the waves as we walk towards the island of Camaya Coast. The relaxed, peaceful, cool breeze, beautiful awesome view makes your excitement even more high. Along the beach, they have their banquet area with tables where you can wait for the mini golf cart service which will take you to the van for the luxury resort mountain tour.

There you will be amazed at their huge projection of the property for investment. I am definitely sure this is a good and worth the money investment for your retirement plan because you will not only own a property, but you have a bonus of a wonderful ocean view and a fantastic Mariveles Mountain view!. Isn't that awesome? Wow!

There’s also a golf course and other amenities for you to enjoy your lifetime here!

Next after the tour, is the swimming time. This is the moment that we've all been waiting for. We took lots of picture to capture every beautiful spot along the beach. And here, they already have coffee shops and food kiosks. This is also the venue for their evening shows and live band music.

We were lost in time, didn’t notice that it was time to leave. This is a so quick day tour. I suggest you better book a 12nn trip to catch the evening shows like fire dance which we all missed. Will definitely comeback and make sure to explore more of the whole Island of Camaya Coast.

Second Visit
This time we took the 12nn to 8pm schedule. I am more excited because I'm with my highschool bestfriends in my second visit at Camaya Coast. When we arrived, we had our plated meal courtesy of Camaya. The weather was just perfect for the day. Then we have our tour. After that we took some pictures with the banana boat, the beach and the pool on top of Villa Camaya.

Swimming followed. But the most exciting part was when the Band started to play at the Sand Bar . it’s good music matched with lively athmosphere. It’s party party time by the beach. We enjoyed the night even better when the fire dancers started performing. There’s fireworks at the end of the show. Beautiful lights in different colors, this completed our evening fun.

On our way home after an hour , it was quite wavy. But we still arrived at Moa Esplanade Terminal safe and sound.

Amazing wonderful time at Camaya Coast. It's just a day tour, how much more if I own a property there, I would have that wonderful feeling everyday by the beach, enjoying sunset and Sunrise, cool breeze, breath taking view, God's perfect creation, awesome creator. We are indeed blessed, and we have to remember that always! Thanks Camaya Coast for this wonderful experience

Sunpiology Resolution Run Raises Over 5 Million for Charity

 Filipinos towards health and wellness while raising over Php 5 Million for charity in its annual fun run, the Sunpiology Resolution Run.

Held last January 20 at Camp Aguinaldo in Quezon City, the event attracted over 3,000 runners, who tackled obstacles designed to raise awareness about diabetes. A limbo rock challenge reminded everyone to keep their health in check, a 100-step challenge gave reminders on how to infuse exercise in one’s daily routine, while a sugar tunnel prompted everyone to watch their sugar intake.

Sun Life has been championing diabetes awareness since 2015, after studies that it commissioned showed that many Filipinos lacked knowledge about the debilitating disease. In fact, part of the funds raised will go to the Institute for Studies on Diabetes Foundation (ISDFI), which facilitates diabetes awareness and prevention initiatives for Filipinos.

Other beneficiaries are Noordhoff Craniofacial Foundation, Hebreo Foundation, and the Star Magic scholars.

Now on its 9th year, the run was once again co-presented by Star Magic and led by actor and Sun Life brand ambassador Piolo Pascual. His fellow artists, such as Matteo Guidicelli, Enchong Dee, Robi Domingo, Kisses Delavin, Edward Barber, and Maymay Entrata also joined the event. Other artists were Ashley Colet, Bailey May, Belle Mariano, Chantal Videla, Christian Morones, Claire Ruiz, Franco Rodriguez, Hannah Ledesma, Hannah Lopez Vito, Henz Villaraiz, Jai Agpangan, Jameson Blake, Jessica Marasigan, Joe Vargas, Joj Agpangan, Kyle Velino, Lance Lucido, Loren Burgos, Marco Gallo, Maris Racal, Mark Rivera, Mikee Agustin, Nico Antonio, Nikki Valdez, Inigo Pascual, Pamu Pamorada, Raine Salamante, Ria Atayde, Sam Shoaf, Sam Thurman, Tommy Esguerra, Vivoree Esclito, Xia Vigor,Yesha Camile, Ysabel Ortega, Zeus Collins and Zonia Mejia.

The Resolution Run was presented by Sun Life Financial Philippines in partnership with Brooks, Cherifer, Diabetasol, DMC Marketing Services, Dr. Kong, Fitbar, Gardenia, Green Stevia, Hi-Precision Diagnostics, Mega Sardines, RUNNR, Saucony, Stable, Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc., and TrueTea; supported by Glorious Blend, Nurture Wellness Village, PhilRice, and Silka; with media partners Business Mirror, Business World, Cinema One, Lifestyle, OUTCOMM, Philippine Daily Inquirer, Philippine Star, and Star Studio. Gatorade (official hydration partner), (My Health Clinic (official medical partner), Garmin (official timer); and Toby’s (official registration partner) also helped mount the event facilitated by RunRio.

The event completes Sunpiology Duo, Sun Life's bike-run event, which commenced last November 2017 with the Sun Life Cycle PH.

Mr. De Guzman believes that the sport should be made open to all ages, sex and physical condition and still maintains the element of simple enjoyment without the normal pressure of a very dynamic and demanding sport. He aims to bring the sport nationwide and have it set on the natural terrain of the province that he goes to.

GEJE EUSTAQUIO AND KAIRAT AKHMETOV FACE-OFF AT ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES OFFICIAL KICK-OFF PRESS CONFERENCE

 Manila, Philippines: The largest global sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), recently held the ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES Official Kick-Off Press Conference last Monday, 22 January at the Manila Grand Ballroom of the City of Dreams. Main event competitors Geje Eustaquio the Philippines and Kairat Akhmetov of Kazakhstan faced-off for media in attendance. They will be competing for the ONE Interim Flyweight World Championship in the headline bout of ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES which takes place Friday night, 26 January at the Mall of Asia Arena in Manila.


Also in attendance at the ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES Official Kick-Off Press Conference were Chairman and CEO of ONE Championship, Chatri Sityodtong, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Global Citizen, Wei Soo, Vice President for Gaming Operations of City of Dreams Manila, Kevin Benning, co-main event competitors Joshua Pacio and Lan Ming Qiang, as well as Filipino martial arts veteran Eric Kelly and his opponent, Rafael Nunes.


Ticket information for ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES is available atwww.onefc.com


Photos for the ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES Press Conference can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1X111o02cT6YLTkl3UHwFaNOo3VhKZcvo?usp=sharing

Chatri Sityodtong, Chairman and CEO of ONE Championship, stated: “It is always great to be back in Manila because the Philippines is one of the countries that truly and deeply appreciates martial arts. This is the reason why ONE Championship continually upkeeps holding blockbuster shows for our passionate Filipino fans. ONE Championship is set to hold four events in the country for 2018, and our first Manila card for this year will put fans on the edge of their seats, making them crave for more authentic martial arts action.”

Headquartered in New York with offices in Canada, Australia, Germany, and the United Kingdom, Global Citizen was founded in 2012 with the goal of building the largest platform where people can learn about issues, take action on what matters most, and join a global movement working to end extreme poverty by 2030. Since then, millions of Global Citizens around the world have taken over ten million actions, which includes millions of emails, tweets, petition signatures, and phone calls targeting world leaders to end extreme poverty by 2030. To date, the actions by Global Citizen’s global community, along with its high-level advocacy efforts and various partners, have resulted in 130 commitments and policy announcements from leaders, including financial aid valued at over US $35-billion, that is set to affect the lives of over 1.3 billion people.

Wei Soo, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Global Citizen, stated: “We are thrilled to be joining forces with ONE Championship to bring Global Citizen to Asia. ONE Championship reaches millions of young people around the region and together we will engage them on issues that impact the entire world. Since we launched Global Citizen in 2012, over 13 million actions have been taken, and we are excited to drive more actions and increase our impact for the world’s most marginalized people through this partnership.”

Geje Eustaquio, ONE World Title Challenger, stated: “I am expecting another difficult bout. Kairat Akhmetov is tough and has a huge heart inside the cage. That is why I am preparing very well for this rematch. A victory over Kairat would land me a rematch against Adriano Moraes. I believe I have what it takes to become the undisputed ONE Flyweight World Champion in the future.”

Kairat Akhmetov, ONE World Title Challenger, stated: “I am coming into this interim title match-up with the mentality that it will be me versus the world, and I am ready for it. In 2017, I had ups and downs. I do not want to look back. In 2018, I am looking forward to reaching my dream to battle Adriano Moraes for the third time. But of course, I have to beat Geje Eustaquio first to fulfill my dream.”

Joshua Pacio, ONE Athlete, stated: “I have more experience, and I believe the two losses that I have suffered in my career have taught me a lot. I see those setbacks as an advantage, rather than just a blemish on my record. This match means a lot to me. I want to prove that I deserve to be competing on this international stage. I want to show to my countrymen that we also excel in martial arts, and to inspire more youths to pursue their respective dreams.”

Lan Ming Qiang, ONE Athlete, stated: “I am proud to be part of a great martial arts organization like ONE Championship, but my pride is without exaggeration. My pride cannot be moved. It only grows. I want more people to see Chinese athletes at the highest stage. I am looking forward to the match. I do not know what is going to happen, or how the match is going to end, but it is surely going to be exciting.”

Eric Kelly, ONE Athlete, stated: “Rafael Nunes has been away for a while, so I am not sure if he got stronger or improved. All I know is that I am training to achieve a win. My opponent is a human like me, and everyone is beatable. I always put that in my mind. Right now, I have to redeem myself in front of my countrymen. I might be 35 years old, but I am not giving up. I am here to stay.”

Rafael Nunes, ONE Athlete, stated: “I feel so honored to face a Filipino martial arts veteran like Eric Kelly in my return to ONE Championship. I see me keeping the match standing, and I will be using my distance to box with him and use some kicks. If he wants to go to the ground, I will be trying to finish him.”

Top flyweight contender and former world title challenger Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio of  Baguio City, Philippines, is one of the most skilled martial artists in Asia, and a highly-decorated wushu practitioner. His solid striking and grappling skill set has led to huge victories over the course of a seven-year professional career. Training in the high altitudes of the Philippines’ Summer capital, Eustaquio hones his craft alongside world-class teammates at the fabled Team Lakay. Known for his incredible ability to keep calm in the face of adversity, Eustaquio is set to headline ONE: GLOBAL SUPERHEROES opposite Kairat Akhmetov for the ONE Interim Flyweight World Championship.

Former ONE Flyweight World Champion Kairat Akhmetov is a veteran martial artist from Almaty, Kazakhstan. The 30-year-old boasts a solid 24-1 professional record amassed during a stellar martial arts career which has seen him dominate his opponents with tenacious wrestling and powerful striking. In his most recent appearance inside the ONE Championship cage, Akhmetov defeated Geje Eustaquio via closely-contested three-round split decision. Now he faces Eustaquio in a rematch, this time for the ONE Interim Flyweight World Championship.

22-year-old Joshua Pacio of Baguio City is one of the fastest rising martial arts stars from the Philippines. He is one of the promotion’s most talented strawweights and a proud member of the famed Team Lakay. Pacio is a wushu practitioner with a solid grappling repertoire. All but one of his 10 career victories have come by spectacular finish, which includes five wins by submission and four by devastating knockout. In his most recent bout, Pacio knocked out veteran Roy Doliguez with a second-round spinning back fist. A former ONE Strawweight World Championship Title Challenger, Pacio is looking to bring himself back to title contention with another victory. A tough task is ahead of Pacio, however, as he is slated to lock horns with China’s Lan Ming Qiang.

Lan Ming Qiang is a national sanda champion, who trains alongside ONE Championship flyweight standout “The Southern Eagle” Ma Hao Bin at the Jincan Defense Club. After a 16-2 sanda record and several championship titles, the 24-year-old native of Guangxi, China recently made his transition to the cage and already has a pair of stunning victories to his credit. Lan is set to make his promotional debut under the ONE Championship banner against former world title contender Joshua Pacio.


Featherweight standout Eric “The Natural” Kelly of Baguio City is widely considered one of the best homegrown martial arts athletes to come out of the Philippines. The wushu practitioner combines solid striking techniques with high-level grappling skills, which has resulted in nine impressive submissions and one knockout out of 12 total victories. Kelly’s most impressive showing to date came in a submission win over Rob Lisita in 2014. In his next bout, Kelly will face Rafael Nunes.



20-year-old Rafael Nunes is a martial artist from Sao Paulo, Brazil with a 10-1 record. He is the former Premier FC Lightweight Champion and has steamrolled through the competition in his home country with a knack for winning by exciting finish. All but one of Nunes’ 10 wins have ended within the distance. A Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt, Nunes is equally comfortable finishing his opponents by submission or by strikes. He looks to showcase his multifaceted skill set in his next bout, and will face a tough challenge when he takes on veteran Eric Kelly.

Herbalife Fitness Trend

By John Agwunobi, M.D., M.B.A., M.P.H.


In the health and wellness field, this idea of ‘exercise is medicine’ has been found to have a significant impact on our health. Getting in shape, staying fit, keeping up a regular regimen of exercise and physical activity are as important to healthy living as your diet, nutrition, and food choices. Indeed, maximizing the number of minutes of physical activity and minimizing the number of calories are two sides of the same coin. All of it is complementary and mutually reinforcing.


So we are always interested in what’s new on the fitness front. And we asked our expert, Samantha Clayton, and a handful of members of our Fitness Advisory Boards (FABs) for their outlook for 2018.


What the Experts Say


Sam’s Take: Traditional Fitness Meets New Methods & Technology

Samantha Clayton, Senior Director, Worldwide Sports Performance & Fitness


The field of fitness and exercise in the 21st century remains a mix of new approaches and old. New classes, programming, and choreography, in hopes of keeping it exciting and fresh, enhance traditional training methods. Running and cycling are still popular, but the past year saw the return of the 1980s rebounder trampoline craze, the continued expansion of High Intensity Training (HIIT) protocols, and growing participation in competition-based fitness like mud runs, 5Ks, and triathlons.


At the same time, as in pretty much every facet of life, society and the economy, technology is a constant driver of the exercise revolution – especially as more wearable devices come online and a wider array of apps appear on our smartphones, all of them offering people simple and easy ways to monitor their activity day by day, minute by minute.


For now, though, let’s highlight three trends that we expect to progress, emerge, or burst on the scene in 2018.


First, cross training styles are here to stay—it’s simply too effective of a way to seamlessly blend building muscle with working on your cardio all at once. It remains suitable for beginners or experienced exercisers. It can be tailored to each individual’s goals. It is a recognized strategy for everything from weight loss to weight maintenance to sports performance.


And that’s before people become more and more aware of the positive metabolic and body composition results sparked by these workouts. Suffice is to say, this dynamic and versatile regimen will keep trending upward year after year into the foreseeable future.


Salvatore Nocerino, Herbalife Nutrition Fitness Consultant


Second, as noted by Salvatore Nocerino, an Herbalife Nutrition fitness consultant and FAB member in Italy, the ABC style of training will keep growing and thriving, in Europe and around the world. Short for Athletic Body Conditioning, ABC combines body weight training, weight lifting, and choreographed movements using a single step and other simple equipment. It’s high-energy and highly stylized, with workouts that rely heavily on music of momentum, rhythm, and results. It emphasizes the importance of stretching, developing muscle, building a strong and stable core, and improving coordination.


Perhaps most important of all, ABC training is fun, well rounded, and effective – and its reach is expected to expand in 2018 and beyond.


Chappy Callanta, Herbalife Nutrition Fitness Ambassador


Third, Chappy Callanta, another Herbalife Nutrition FAB member and fitness coach, believes that online and distance coaching will see a steady climb in demand, popularity, and usage in the year ahead. Technology is simply making these kinds of interactions easier, so you can find the coach you want and the guidance you need, wherever you are. Not only that, but this approach to coaching is likely to include a more holistic form of mentoring, taking into account people’s physical, nutritional, and psychosocial goals at the same time. It’ll help them recognize and alter their daily habits and utilize motivation techniques to facilitate behavioral change for the better. All of which will be key, in 2018 and long past that, to a sustainable, healthy, and active lifestyle.


No matter which trend you choose, one thing is for sure: the “exercise is medicine” movement is fast becoming a fact of life. The medical community is on board. So are top health care experts. They see it as a positive public health initiative for preventative care and disease risk management.


So if nothing else, the trend toward greater fitness as a pathway to health will continue.



Dr. John Agwunobi is the Chief Health and Nutrition Officer of Herbalife Nutrition.

Sunpiology Resolution Run 2018 Nailed It








I’ve been wanting to join a run but most of it starts too early and I live too far, it’s close to impossible that I will be able to make it on time. That's why when I saw that Sunpiology Run is in the afternoon, I signed up right away with the hope of being chosen as one of the bloggers to cover the event. And indeed, I was one of the blessed ones, so so happy when I saw my name on the list! Yehey!

Then I started preparing for my run attire, browsed information about the run last year to get some ideas on how it goes. I read details from Sunpiology link. Wow , I get even more excited after. A few days before the run , my friend Claire posted updates from Sunpiology showing the artists names joining on January 20, my excitement gets even more intense, quite nervous as well thinking if I am gonna make it because sometimes I easily feel dizzy with extreme heat index though I passed Fitness First sets of body screening before doing a work out wherein my strength, body abilities was checked. So I really prepared physically too, ha ha.

Then the much awaited January 20 finally came. We left early and when we get to the venue, AFP Grandstand Camp General Emilio Aguinaldo Headquarters, we saw ABCDigital Proprietor Managing Director Arby as he handed us our racekit, we changed right away and entered the race lane. We hear music, all runners faces reflects excitement, the crowd looks so awesome in their Sunpiology yellow top!




There are many booths of sponsors, Sunlife really have huge support from different brands like mega sardines, gardenia, and many more. They have exciting raffle prizes and I also enjoyed their booth for the camera 360 shot, we look awesome, ha ha.

Then the run finally started. It feels so good because it’s been quite a long time since my last run and this is my first time to run with these huge number of runners, more so, with the Starmagic artists like Enchong Dee, Robi, Mateo and many more. Afterwards, there’s an after-party celebration, both for the success of the event and to celebrate the birth month of the Sunlife star, Piolo Pascual. The team prepared a beautiful cake for our very handsome celebrant, happy birthday!

All in all , Sunpiology Resolution Run 2018 nailed it. Awesome event, from registration, booths sponsors, the lane where to claim the finisher kit, the program, race execution, the security, all are well organized. I never felt missed out because everything is set perfectly accessible. This is definitely worth my travelling time and an awesome first-time run experience with them. I would like to thank once again Arby of ABCDigital and Sunlife for this amazing event and I am all-out in support knowing the genuine cause for this run benefiting diabetic patients.

This is another good way to start a fit and healthy 2018 with Sunlife

The Pig Pen Experience

Last January 18 we were invited by Zomato to try one restaurant in Nuvali Solenad 3 , The Pig Pen. Well because it's just one hour away from me, I joined them. The ambiance looks so simple and ordinary. The staff were all pleasant looking and the customer service is just fine. 
About the food. 
We tried some of their dishes, and I have some favorites – The ultimate one: the pork with chili paste and kimchi side dish. I super loved it, the meat is extraordinarily tender, super! The chili paste blends perfectly with the dish and this rocks my taste buds cravings. I love anything that has a Korean touch that's why this is on the top of my list. 

Next is their pasta with white sauce - I thought the meat ingredient is tuna but to my surprise it’s ground pork! It is finely tender and super creamy. And then there’s the spaghetti- I am also a pasta lover and this spaghetti passed my standards, checked! Chicken barbeque comes next to my list. It’s juiciness blends well with all the flavors that lingers in my taste; And lastly, their Tacos - the dressing taste awesome. I super love it!

I commend their chef for this awesomely perfect gastronomic experience. I will definitely be back and bring my entire family here. Thanks Pigpen and Zomato!

Product Reviews

The Skin Bureau
This soap is just fine, not too strong and gives smoothness and freshness feeling ��� been using one brand of soap since high school , and I'm glad this soap fits my so delicate skin... a good try, thanks Skin Bureau Soap���



Bellissima Eggwhite Whitening Soap
I am very particular when it comes to my skin that is why I only use the same soap since high school. It is very mild and never irritates my sensitive skin. That's why it is very hard for me to try a new product with a fear of some serious irritation.


But I was so surprised when I tried this Bellissima soap. It nourishes and smoothens my skin. The smell is not so strong.  I like it. It also can lessen age lines because after using it you will feel very visible changes. I think this product is highly recommended if you want a more fairer looking skin. This is worth a try.


Good product Bellissima ♥

Bumbleman Liquid Dishwasher
Kitchen is a very important part of the house. This is where you prepare the food that you enjoy twith your family. And that is why you have to make sure it is very clean. We need a product that can help us in this area specially with our utensils,  plates and other kitchenware.

After cooking our meals, we can't leave the dishes for a long time unwashed . Looking for a good product that will not be harsh on your hands is necessary.  That is why I am happy to have this Bubbleman Dishwashing liquid.   It is very light on the hands but also saves you from buying again and again. With a small amount, it can wash a bunch of plates and glasses.  It is very effective in removing greases. You are now sure that your kitchenware is 100% clean and free from any dirt that can cause contamination.

Very good product.



Awesome product Bubbleman♥

Argan Conditioner and Shampoo
Its really hard to get a product that best suit your hair type, sometimes they cause even more damages and also dandruff. I have tried many brands in the past but this one Argan Shampoo and Conditioner seems to work for me. I like the smooth feeling after using it, even after few days, my hair still looks smooth and shiny and it enhances the color of my hair. My family also noticed the changes with my hair and wants to try it too . Now it's my 1st time using it and I am very satisfied with the result. Thanks Argan for this wonderful product! It’s awesome.

Loladelings Special Atsara 



One of my favorite side dishes for porkchops, grilled food and fried chicken is the Atchara. I super love the freshness of taste, it an awesome combination to our fried dishes that’s why when I received Lola Deling’s Special Atsara i was very excited! And my mommy loves atsara too!

When I opened the jar of loladelings I already knew this is a sure winner to my tastebuds because it has raisins, and I am definitely correct its "super sarap"... very fresh taste that lingers to my taste buds. The sweetness….all the flavors blends well. I hope I can get another jar! This would be a nice gift for your friends and your love ones.

Thanks Loladelings for this awesome sa sarap na atsara, I super duper love it to the max.
