One More Krispy Kreme Story

I was again lucky to be invited at the Krispy Kreme Media Event and VIP Socials yesterday afternoon at its soon to open branch in SM Davao Annex. It was such a memorable gathering as it unveiled the much sought-after doughnut store in the country that is getting ready to open in Davao with two branches at SM Annex and Abreeza Mall tomorrow, October 20. (The third Davao branch opening will be at SM Lanang Premier in November.) Being the first set of Krispy Kreme branches in Mindanao, everyone was filled with excitement as they set their eyes with glee on  the curtains which finally went down to present the store to the media and other top executives in the city.     Apart from the tasty pica-pica/cocktails that were served before the unveiling, we were also treated to have a taste of the Original Glazed donuts, fresh and hot […]

Blog Weekend Bootcamp: A Homecoming of Sorts

In the past months, I have always seen Davao Bloggers’ activities in my FB newsfeed and there is this constant wish of mine to be part of the group. However, I noticed most of the bloggers I see in the event photos are younger than me, and geez, I might feel way out of their league so I just kept on lurking. Good thing, one of the officers/organizers, Karla, informed me about the Blogger Weekend Bootcamp (held on Sept 21-23, 2012) and reassured me that there are also mommies like me who actively blog and are frequent attendees in local blogger events. See, I started writing since highschool and that’s like ages ago. And for the past few years, my job online has been focused on editing articles, SEO (search engine optimization) building, customer support, and the like. Although I have a personal blog here and I had another one […]

Indeed, the internet has paved the way for the unthinkable. No one in our forefathers must have imagined that life would be as fast-paced and dynamic as the kind we are having today in this age of computers and world wide web a.k.a the internet. Everything under the sun seems to be possible with a few clicks of a mouse , keyboard or even a few buttons of a smartphone. Creative juices abound and are free to flow for improved lifestyle and better human structures. Most of these lead to progress, while others merely see this as forms of expression. Thinking about it, I can see a lot of promising things coming. There is pressure, I know, but I’d rather be excited than feel scary. I am so looking for what the future of technology brings. I can’t wait. (For a more vivid presentation of how internet has changed the […]
