Headphone Review time: 4 in 1 Bluetooth Stereo Headset


After 2 months, I finally got the chance to blog about this. This is my Nia X-3 headphones and so far it is doing well. For something that is less than Php 1000, I'm glad that it is still working after some of the abuse I did to it. 


This is a 4-in-1 headset. You can connect to it via Bluetooth or Aux cable. You can use a memory card or listen to FM radio. You can take calls with it too.


It is compact and the leather is nice. It awesome as I had my hair colored and it did not get stained! The earmuffs are comfortable for me. It does not cover all of my ears but at least it blocks noisy pretty nicely. 


The controls are easy to remember. It is located on the right side earmuff. You can find the aux jack on that side as well.

Komikon the 13th




Thirteen is a lucky number. As this year is Komikon's 13th event, Kiko Machine's 13th book was released. It is the first time for me to attend this event though!


One of the reasons why I wanted to go was to get my copy of Collegium Vitae from Buhay Kolehiyo. I got a free sketch of Salle and stickers too! 

Sir Robert Wong aka EvaGuy01

I love stickers and this event has a lot of them. I was really struggling to make sure I don't buy too many. It was also a chance for me to have the stories in my Kommunity signed.
Fandom Feels PH awesome stickers
Ms. Ivyree Rosario of Little Things PH was so nice. I really wish I had enough to get the shirts they have for sale.



Here is another reason why I wanted to attend, Kiko Machine's 13th book. I wanted to get it as soon as it was available for the number fan I know personally. Yes, it is for Sherome. 


Fanboy Sherome and Sir Manix Abera
Going to Komikon was AWESOME. I should have done this before! Shout out to the admins of Dito sa Mundong Kiko for the free Iced Gems!

Takaraya: Hot Pot Heaven


The weekend is coming up, do you have plans? Why not have a fest at Takaraya Authentic Japanese cuisine and Fusion. Located along Mabini Street, Malate. You can easily bring your family and friends.


Their menu is filled with awesome Japanese food! From sushi, salads, breaded pork, tempura, ramen and hotpots!


Top to bottom: California Maki, Pink Dragon Roll, Crazy Tuna Roll
Food presentation as most people would say, it is IG worthy. All of the said rolls are tasty! However,  Crazy Tuna Roll won my heart because it is spicy!

Pari - Pari Salad

Salmon Nanban

I got to try the following salads: Pari - Pari Salad and Kani Salad (I don't have a photo). The Pari - Pari Salad was interesting has it had crispy noodles as the main ingredient. If you love Salmon, you will love it even more after you taste the Salmon Nanban. It was easy to bite and the sauce is such a great pair with the fried salmon. I will never see salmon in the same way again!

Look at all that delicious food!
I always save the best for last! I have never tried hot pot before and I'm glad Takaraya's Beef Hotpot in Sukiyaki Soup is simply awesome! For only Php 450, 3 or more people can enjoy warm Sukiyaki soup with vegetables and beef. It is perfect for the rainy season!


The owner is really, really nice! The staff are inviting and the atmosphere of the place is relaxing. It is definitely a great place to relax after a hard day's work or Family bonding time.

You should go there soon! I just read that they have another promo! 50% off their sushi rolls from Nov 15 to 18!  You can check their Facebook page for more information!

Happy Eating!

Breakout Philippines: Greenbelt 5



Two years ago, I have reviewed Breakout Philippines' Paragon Branch. I'm not sure what changed but I'm glad they did. Thank you, October babies for the treat!


You have to be there 15 minutes before your schedule. There will be a briefing of what you can and can't do inside the room. You also, need to sign a waiver.


Once done, you will asked to leave your stuff in a locker. You can't bring flashlight, phones or cameras in the room. You have to disconnect from the outside world. 

It will be girls vs boys
There are are 4 themed rooms in the Greenbelt branch. Paranoia, Corpse Bride, Accidental Agent and The Island. For the boys, they tried their luck with Paranoia. The girls were locked up in a dressmaker's shop in Corpse Bride.

The boys completed their room and the girls, well we were kinda #TrappedForever. It was a lot better that what I have experienced with their main branch, 2 years ago. For now, they get 3 thumbs up!


Here is a tip: You're doing great. If you feel like you missed a step believe me you did not. Also, I would like to add some suggestions:

1. Sound-proof the rooms. It is weird to hear the other people trying to solve their respective room.
2. Make sure that the props are loyal to the story. In both the rooms we tried there are things that will remind you that you are still in the present day.
3. Of you will be trapped forever. Have the room's light turn off and don't let the people out to quickly. To get a sense of despair.

If you feel like trying one of their room you can book it on this link: breakout.com.ph

Oh! I forgot you get to have souvenir photos (Grabbed from their FB page):

Komiket: Highlights


Komket is a play on Komiks and market. The best part the logo is a comet cat! So, what is Komiket about? It is a venue for indie comic book artist and illustrators to market their artworks.




I was there on the second day to support Cheachan, she was part of Komikids' table. Sadly, I did not get to see her there. I left early to save my wallet from awesome fan arts for sale.


The other reason why I was there super early was for the free "Kommunity" a collection of short comics from well-known comic book artist and artists that gain popularity online. 


I also got a few stickers from Misha, Mod Jojo of Buhay KolehiyoLumi Skullgurl, and Hunghang Flashbacks


I seriously could have gotten more mech but it would have killed off my budget. So, on the next Komiket I will be ready! See you all on Feb 24-25 2018!

Review: Sweety Galaxy Blue

Sweety Galaxy Blue from Gwyshop
Finally, after so long I have a new pair of contact lens. Introducing Sweety Galaxy Blue, it looks like you have a galaxy on your eyes. It come in pink, brown, gray, purple and blue.

In daylight

It's pretty comfortable to wear. It did feel weird at first as it has been a long time since a last worn contact lenses. The color really pops out but it does not look weird if you want to wear it daily.

room/elevator light (lol)
I do recommend this pair if you are planning to cosplay someone with blue eyes as it will look more natural. It is vivid without the non-human looking eyes. It has a 14.5 diameter making your eyes look bigger and doll-like.

with flash
Just a reminder, if this is your first time to wear contact lenses, don't wear them for more than 4 hours. You need to get use to it first. Yes you need to break-in your first pair. Also, make sure that you will use the same contact lens solution you have used for the first time to avoid irritation.

Oh My GLOB!: Adventure Time Happy Meal Toys

Mcdonald's Happy Meal Toys
It started with this post the post of Mcdonald's. It features toys from the popular TV series, Adventure Time! Eight toys with mini-games. Filipinos noticed and started sharing the photo, tagging people that love the series. The problem was it was only available in Malaysia.


He bought 3 happy meals so I can have the 3 toys

I have message Mcdonald's Philippine page about these toys, as I was being redirected to their page whenever I click the page name. I told them that they should have these toys available in the Philippines as well as most of the comments on the Malaysian page are from Filipinos that are interested to get the toys. 



After two weeks or so, they posted the photo above, they listen! Maybe not maybe it was really due to come to the Philippines at that point I did not care. I just want to collect all the 8 toys! Have you collected them all?
