A Site for Musicians, and Independent Filmmakers

As a music lover and a band member, my husband is always browsing for music related site. Then yesterday, he came across a site called Unicorn Media. Unicorn Media is an entertainment destination built for the coming digital entertainment revolution. By harnessing the massive reach of the Internet, Unicorn Media gives established and emerging music, film and video artists an easy way to gain worldwide exposure while earning money from their work – reinventing the traditional media model and setting off a revolution in digital entertainment.

My husband and I agree that Unicorn Media is a great music promotion tool and independent film promotion as well. Unicorn Media offers a broad selection of professionally produced, high-quality digital entertainment that you can watch (Uvideo) and listen to (Utunes), and you can enjoy all of them for free. You can also enjoy creating customized mixed media mixed playlists of favorite songs, videos, and films and share them with your friends.

They also have a blog called Unicorn Sightings that has updated articles, postings and reviews of the movies, bands, or songs on the Unicorn Media site. They also have tips for musician that wants to get signed, which my husband feels it's a very helpful and informative article. Unicorn Media wants artists to succeed and they provide the tools that will share the artists' works in the world. They are simply changing the way entertainers profit from high-quality digital entertainment.

So if you are musicians, bands, and independent filmmakers, Unicorn Media is definitely for you.

Snow World Manila

After our family lunch out, my cousin Karen invited us to go to Snow World Manila. I've seen Snow World Manila on television and I find it interesting, so we all agreed to come.

Snow World Manila, located at Star City, features the Ice carvings of World Ice Sculpture Arts Champions. Winter Wonderland Entertainment partnered with Star City to bring the Snow World from Indonesia to Manila.

Upon entering the place, I was really amazed by the real snow, real ice sculpture and real ice slide! Not too mention, I was really freezing. The entire place was -15 degrees Celsius, could you imagine how cold it is? Anyway, we skipped the ice sculptures and headed directly to the main attraction, the 68 meters long ice slide. Everyone wanted to try the slide, so it took us time before we can experience the fun. It was really cold, I felt my feet started to get numb. (I was only wearing slippers). Maybe after 10 minutes of wait, our turn came. To be honest, I'm afraid of slides, but this is a one-time experience, so why not try it. I positioned myself and getting ready to slide, but I felt my heart was beating so fast, then my dad pushed me.... I just screamed and screamed but not because of fright, but because I was enjoying it. Even my Dad and Uncle Nenad tried the slide. It was really fun.

Too bad cameras are not allowed, so we had our photo taken by Snow World's photographer. (100 per photo)

Above photo: (Left to right) Jeri, my cousin Karen, Me, my brother Nikko, my sister Kiss, and Uncle Nenad. Above us: my husband Monch and my dad.
On this picture: (Standing - Left to right) My dad, Nikko, my husband and Jeri
(sitting - left to right) Kiss, me, Karen and Uncle Nenad

We only stay there for 1 hour because we cant stand the coldness anymore. But it was definitely an experience to remember.

For those who want to experience the fun, you may visit Snow World Manila at Star City CCP Complex. Entrance is only P160.00

Rate Some Pictures

One of my dreams is to become a professional photographer but I think it will never happen. I am just a frustrated photographer. Though I have plans of taking photography class, but as of now, I don't have time and money for that.

I'm just enjoying and appreciating other works. There are so many pictures in the internet especially in PixOrNix.com as they have large collection of photos. From art, sports, to flowers photos, name it and they got it. But my favorite is the landscape category. Under this category, they have breathtaking photos of places and scenery. Not to mention, the photos are in high quality and this makes photo viewing more fun and worth it.

Also, in PixOrNix, if you like a picture you may give it a rating. I usually give 8 to 10 ratings because most of the photos are great. In addition, each category has their own top ten photos. And I will assure you that you will love those photos included in the top ten. You may also upload your photos and let other viewers rate it. One of these days, I’ll try to take some photos of our views and I’ll submit it to PixOrNix.

So, if you are looking for cool and awesome photos or you want others to appreciate your work, you may visit PixOrNix.com, and don't forget to rate your favorite photo.

The Ateneo Blue Eagles wins UAAP championship

With my hubby, I took some break from my online tasks and watched the finals of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP). And you read it right, Ateneo have defeated the De La Salle Green Archers and won the UAAP season 71 Finals with the score of 62-51.

Quoted from GMANews.tv:
The Eagles looked to breeze through Game Two after taking a 41-26 halftime lead but La Salle, behind the hot sniping of fifth-year guard JV Casio, made it 50-47 after the third quarter.

But Ateneo's defense, the most vaunted in the tournament, helped the Eagles survive their determined opponents and dethrone the defending champions.
I'm neither from Ateneo or La Salle, but I studied at Miriam College, neigboring school of Ateneo. So, I cheered for Ateneo. I'm really happy for Ateneo. It was Ateneo's fourth UAAP championship and second in the decade after winning in 2002.

Neck Exercise

My neck is aching for two days already. My husband said I was in front of my laptop for almost 24 hours and I need some exercise. But , I don't have time for that. I have to stay online, waiting for tasks.

Then he sent me a file on my yahoo messenger. He said, "Ma, I found this on the net, you need to read this everyday. I'm worried about you. " I was very touched when I saw the file...
Now, I'm sharing this to my fellow bloggers. Try it... It is really a simple exercise.

Sports in my life

Yesterday, while my husband is looking for some Kobe Bryant's video, he came across a site called SportsVids.com. Founded last August 2007, SportsVids.com has a large collection of online sports videos.

I learned that this website started because the owner is so passionate with sports. Creating a social network and to provide quality video content with the ability to view past and current sports clips is the SportsVids.com goal.

There are so many things you can do on Sports Vids. Not only, you're a member of their sports community, you also can upload your own favorite sports video.

Anyway, we found this Kobe Bryant video. It's a compilation of his top ten plays. My husband was amazed by this video. We really enjoy watching it.

Our Kids Names!!!

Thanks Mommy Charm for this tag...

—START TAG—

Our baby name:
Since we are planning to have a baby soon, my husband and I have talked about what will be our baby's name. To be honest, until we haven't decided yet. But there's no rush. If you ask me, I would like the name AEIRIN RYLEE for a baby girl. Aeirin is my online nick name. It's not my real name. I'm Iris Camille... Aeirin came from the name Aerin which is a fictional character from J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium. I used the nick Aeirin since I was in highschool. I got used to this name. So I want my daughter to have my nick name Aeirin. I like the name Rylee because it sounds boyish. I want my daughter to have a not so girlie name. Aeirin Rylee will be perfect.

For a boy, I want the name Caleb or Hayden for no specific reason, they just sound cute...

—END TAG—

Now, I would tag the following:

Zriz, Hariette and
Lourdes' Mia

B-I-N-G-O

Yesterday, as I was cleaning our house, I saw my old BINGO game. I wonder does anyone play BINGO anymore?

I remember when I was a kid, my cousin and I used to play BINGO during our family gathering. Our reunion was never complete without playing BINGO. We had cash and foods as prizes. But now that we are all grown up, we seldom play this game anymore.

I have an idea. This coming Wednesday is my sister's birthday and for sure we will have family gathering. I want to play BINGO again as we did before. But this time, it will be better because I saw Screenlife's Disney Bingo DVD game. This is the old BINGO game but with a high-tech twist. Interesting, right?

This game includes 1 DVD, 6 Double-Sided Bingo Cards, 150 Bingo Chips and the set of game rules.

Just take a look on this video to have an idea about this amazing game.


I'm sure my cousins will enjoy this game. Not only that, even kids will surely love this game. Kids will learn numbers, colors, and matching skills with their favorite Disney characters and movie clips. Match the numbers on the board to the ones given by the on-screen caller.

So if you would like to recreate your childhood memories, get this superb Disney Bingo DVD game at from Amazon.com or Drugstore.com at a very reasonable price.

Say no to milk and milk products from China!

I saw on the news last night that milk and other milk products from China are not safe. Most of the milk products have melanine which is used used in plastics, kitchens and etc. In short, this should not be an ingredient to food. Even Starbucks stopped serving drinks with milk as China crisis snowballs.

According to news, at least 6,200 babies were sick nationwide and 4 were killed because those milk powders tainted with the melamine.

Anyway, I did some research about melanine. Melanine is a a non-alimentary chemical which causes kidney stones. If you add this to milk and other food, it gives the appearance of higher protein levels, but it is very harmful to our health.

So, say no to these milk products.
