Our lives have completely changed because of the virus. People are now considering the new ways we're practicing as the new normal. Well, it is indeed a new norm, and it's hard to face new things in life, but if it is for our safety, well, we all need to adapt to the situation.

So, what are new in the new norm? Well, I think it's quite a few, one the social distancing in transportation and establishments, and two is the wearing of masks whenever outside of your house. Some of which are in practice, the washing of hands, disinfecting of surroundings, transacting online, working from home, and online deliveries. These all are already in practice right before the outbreak of the virus, but some people are unreasonable.

Talking about online shopping, well, I'm thankful because it's much easier and more convenient to do your shopping online. You ease off with the hassle of going to the mall or the store, you won't have to face long lines when paying, and you don't have to feel scared because of the large amount of money with you. But of course, there are also the disadvantages of buying online, that is why buyers should be vigilant in reading reviews and other comments of the buyers. It needs to weigh in the various commentaries from customers who already bought from the seller.

Since home-based works and online schooling will be the new norm, I think laptops or desktops will be one of the necessities of every individual or every household. The good news is that there are plenty of online shopping sites where you can find an attractive desktop or laptop deals. Of course, with the situation we have now, the budget is one to consider.

So I did try to check other deals, from local to international. Locally, some stores did try to make sales up to the extend of bartering with some old units that people already have plus some additional cash. I also find this Rakuten site where they offer new and branded laptops or refurbished ones. That's really interesting.

So, are you ready to face the new norm?

Having been aware that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the country, Kris reveals one of the many ways on how she keeps her health healthy. “I eat foods which has lots of Omega-3. One product that I love is San Marino Corned Tuna.”

Every 180-gram can of San Marino Corned Tuna has 1125 mg of Omega-3. Omega-3 which is naturally-found in tuna contributes to having a healthy heart as it lowers cholesterol and blood pressure. It also reduces risks of heart attach and other cardio-vascular diseases.

“Another reason why I love San Marino Corned Tuna is because it has less oil than the usual tuna flakes in oil products and has lots of tuna.” Kris adds, “And San marino Corned Tuna has absolutely no preservatives.”

“I am definitely recommending San Marino Corned Tuna to my family and friends. I want them to have healty hearts too,” Kris imparts.

Why would Dr. Seuss write something about the environment and why have it in less comprehensive audience? As for my understanding during Dr. Seuss time it is very hard to go up against with big names and big companies. People standing up to their believes are being suppressed by powerful tyrants. They would not listen to any thoughts about the environment and the effects of what they are doing. Perhaps that's one of the reason why Dr. Seuss made it into a children's book. Also I think he got the idea that if you want to change the world start with the kids and children's books are one of the most powerful influencer. Kids read books whether it is in school or at home.

Not really sure if he had read Jose Rizal's writings but the idea of teaching the young ones the importance of the environment and letting them picture what will happen is somewhat similar to Jose Rizal's famous quote “the youth of today is the hope of tomorrow” (not exactly as it is but the thought is close enough).

The story of The Lorax does not only talks about the environment but it does show ideas of the economy as well and how filthy rich people takes advantage of different situation. In other words greediness comes in, moral issue is much more likely. Being opportunistic is not bad but grabbing the opportunity in the expense of others is not a good call of success.

Remember the story of a young girl who stands and talks about the environment in front of the representatives in the United Nations (not sure if it is a conference or a summit)conference? Yes, she made the whole world listen to what she have said and perhaps that was the start of the change. Just like the quote in Dr. Seuss The Lorax “unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.” It is indeed that unless there's one person that will make a small act, not only for the environment but also for the next generation to come, things will for sure change and it's for the better.

When was the last time that you had your ROFL or Rolling On Floor Laughing? Well, I almost did that! Good thing that it is a blogger’s night event organized by Star Cinema, somehow I manage to control myself and stopped the possibility of embarrassment in making that very huge scene of laughing and rolling on the floor. It will be like taking off the lights from the stars if I have done that. Anyway I’m still good and I still able to write this article.

Yes! The event was a dinner with the cast of the Adventures of Pureza at Max’s Fried Chicken at the area of Tomas Morato (I think?). Other invited bloggers was also there waiting for the arrival of the stars of the movie. One by one, the stars of the movie came and greeted most of us bloggers. After a few minutes dinner was served. It was “Chicken All You Can” so most of the guys who loves chicken made an approving sound. I’m sure all of our tummies are stuffed during that night.
While some are still eating and the others are already done, Ms. Nikki of Star Cinema made a little talk about the movie and an informal plugging to watch it. Later on they played the trailer of the movie and everyone started laughing. I’m sure every body did not just sit there without a laugh. It was really hilarious, even the stars could not stop laughing. My wife commented on here blog that they filled us up first so we will have enough energy to laugh while watching the trailer.



This is the first full length movie opportunity given to Melai Cantiveros and Jason Francisco after winning from Pinoy Big Brother’s House. Perhaps it was really high time to give them some big break in the big screen. We’ve seen them in the Pinoy Big Brother’s House, in some movies, and also in some sitcoms and I think they have shown their potential to be a comedian. I don’t know if it is the first time but the two of them is the first comedy love team that I have seen. Comedy seems natural to them.
The Adventure of Pureza: Queen of the Riles will for sure get you laughing. If you need to laugh on July 13, 2011 better watch this movie! Warning: Just make sure to fill your tummy before watching to avoid gas leaks while laughing.
