Simple MP3 Downloader for Android

Me and my crazy friend (Camille Parado) have been exchanging "Tagos to the bones" songs that matches our crazy lives and these songs have become our inspiration while working. So I've been updating my ipod and my phone's music player every now and then. 

I find my iPod so boring cause there's always that hassle of updating it since I still have to fire up my computer so I can put songs in there, I'm not really sure if there's such app where I can download songs that will go straight to my playlist. 

One time, I got really pissed cause I really wanted this song but I can't put it in my iPod so I decided to use my phone and tried to search for a music downloader and I found this "Simple mp3 Downloader" app, I thought it's another "Disappoint-me-app" but no. a big NO. I consider this my angel. It really is so simple to use and take note, it's FREE. Now anyone can throw song titles to me and I can have it in seconds! Mind me, downloading songs using this app is really FAST (still depends on your connection though). you can even download you-tube performances (in mp3 file) in here. By the way it's an ANDROID app. I swear this is the best, the most amazing mp3 downloader in the whole wide world! :)

this is how it looks (photo not mine)  

Here are some of the songs from my playlist that I was able to download from this app:

1. Energy - Keri Hilson

2. Gravity - Sara Bareilles

3. Come Round Soon - Sara Bareilles

4. Fairytale - Sara Bareilles

5. Battle Cry - Shontelle ft. Akon

6. Stuck with each other - Shontelle

KIDROBOT

I FINALLY GOT MINE before it totally vanishes from all Swatch outlets...

E-books for free!

Hey Reader!

I just want to share my new addiction. I have always pictured a bookshelf at the corner of my bedroom simply because I want to see the books I collected over the years and I don't want them to be powdered with dust in a different room. Until now I still posses that same feeling whenever l lie down on my bed and see the pile. When I started working I feel like I deprived myself from reading cause I sleep instead of read whenever I have free time and did tons of other important things. I still keep myself updated with good reads and it only made me more frustrated. 

A friend of mine suddenly offered to send me an e-file of a book to my e-mail, I said "I can't" at the back of mind but as a courtesy to her effort I said yes and promised her that I'll read it. 

It was a Friday night and my friend has been asking me if I opened the file already, I tried to open the file and despite the drowsiness I'm feeling I started to read on the small screen of my ipod (it's bearable though). and before I know it I'm totally hooked. I realized that I can still read through e-books. Knowing where to download such e-books has been my second dilemma. I tried different sites but I only got disappointed. I tried torrent but it's a bit complicated and confusing.

Good thing I found this free search engine where you can find millions of documents/files. If you want a site where you can easily access and where you can view the file before you download it try ebookbrowse.com. If the URL is not working just search for it on Google. It's as easy as 1,2,3! :)

I hope it helps! :)

Tony Moly: Honey Bee Skin Solution Dual Mask Review

Lately I've been having zits because of stress and I think because of the chemicals used to color my hair. The swelling and bumps on both sides of my face that my hair touches is freaking me out so I tried to do some research on skin products that can actually eliminate the annoying little red spots. I thought of so many options until I reached Tony Moly's website, they have this HONEY BEE skin solutions which are:

Honey Bee Skin Solution Essence

Honey Bee Skin Solution Toner

Honey Bee Skin Solution Emulsion

 I thought of buying the set out of despair but then both my heart and mind agreed to buy just the mask to try out if the solution is suited for my sensitive skin.

Honey Bee Skin Solution Dual Mask   P198.00

 I wondered what "Dual Mask" means--Once you open the pack you'll see two sheets, one is for your forehead down to your nose and the other is from your lips to your chin. just put it over your face for 15-20 mins. I didn't washed my face after I removed the mask. I don't know if that's the right thing to do but I just let the remaining solution dry overnight. 

I was astounded by the result as it did wonders for my skin in just one night. the redness is gone and it dried up my pimple making it visibly flatter. It really worked so fast. You guys should definitely try it!

VANS x Hello Kitty - The Comeback

 Early last year, VANS Philippines released their very first collection of VANS x Hello Kitty collaboration. I was really surprised by this tandem 'cause I know VANS' craft is very different from Hello Kitty's, same as with their crowd. I love them both and I'm more than happy and grateful to the one who made it possible.   


I wasn't able to get a pair when it was first released here in the Philippines and it almost tore my heart into pieces knowing that stocks are running out and it's just a limited edition. But due to popular demand, VANS x Hello Kitty is so BACK with their irresistible collection! 


Here are some of my top picks:

WAIT THERE'S MORE! :)

 VANS x Hello Kitty Summer Collection 2012 (as they call it) is going to be launched on July 22, 2012, 3:00pm-7:00pm, at VANS Glorietta 3. 

 P.S: To those who are coming to this event, please, spare me some good stuff!

Something to thank Monday for

Dear Monday,


Thank you for not being so cruel today. Thank you for the not so heavy traffic early this morning (i'm still late though!). I'm almost hit by a motorcycle but thank God i wasn't. Thank you that my budget permitted me to buy the food I crave for snack (Maybe I'll just walk from our house to my office! LOL). Thank you that I brought my umbrella when you showered me with little raindrops when I was on my way to the shuttle. And above all, thank you that we're breaking up in a few hours. :)

It's Not that Complicated!!! :)

Hi Guys!

let me just share this wonderful experience I had today! :) 

so we attended the launching of the book entitled "IT'S NOT THAT COMPLICATED: Bakit Hindi Pa Sasakupin Ng Mga Alien Ang Daigdig Sa 2012" written by Mr. Eros Atalia and pulished by VISPRINT. It was held at BEST SELLERS, Robinson's Galleria. We arrived at the mall at around 2:30pm and the program hasn't started yet but Mr. Atalia was there already with the staff of Visprint. Imagine how my eyes sparkled seeing that he's just there and that all I need is courage to ask questions given that I also wanted to be a writer someday, but then I was chickened by the thought that he might ignore me and I also couldn't think of anything at the moment but to have my books signed. When I saw him, I maintained my composure and went straight into his pile of books and grabbed a copy of his latest novel. After we payed for the book we went back into the launching area and still the program isn't starting but I can see his supporters coming gradually.

I let him sign my books before the program starts because after the talks I know the line for the book signing would be very long. 

and so the program started at around 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon. The young director, Mr. Erick Salud and the actors of "Ligo na U, Lapit na Me" and "Intoy Syokoy" were there for the reading of the excerpts and of course to support Mr. Atalia. The brilliant editor, Mr. Jerry Gracio was also there to introduce the author, Mr. Eros Atalia. 

In the middle of the program the honorable writer, Mr. Ricky Lee came in!!! My Gosh! If only I knew he'd be there I would have brought my book "Para kay B" and have him signed it too! oh well, just my luck! 

and speaking of luck -- I'm still fortunate to have my newly purchased book signed by the Actor who played the role of "Intoy", the main character of "Ligo na U, Lapit na Me" when it was chosen to be a part of Cinemalaya 2011. 

Edgar Allan Guzman - still so humble and kind

Other important people were also there to share some stories, I just can't remember all their names. haha! Before the program ends, Edgar Allan surprised us with a song number. I never knew he could sing like that. His voice is just so simple and refreshing! :)

I just feel sad that Mercedes Cabral or the actor who played the role of "Jenny" still for "Ligo na U, Lapit na Me" wasn't able to attend the launch. :( but anyway, the entire program was fun and informative! all the cast and staff who shared their stories are all amazingly witty! NOW I'LL START READING AND PATIENTLY WAIT FOR THE SEQUEL OF "Ligo na U, Lapit na Me". 

P.S:

Guys, Let us support Filipino writers as well.
