Marry Me Part 1 & 2

I was looking for a movie that will really satisfy me, when I stumbled upon this great flick on youtube (because they are allowing full length movies now. Thank God!). The movie caught my eye & got me excited when I saw Lucy Liu as one of the lead characters. It's been a while since I saw her. And it was her first movie, I think that doesn't have any martial arts or something similar to "Charlie's Angels".

The movie is entitled Marry Me. All along I thought it would just be an hour and a couple-of-minutes movie but I was wrong. It has Part 2! It left me hanging when Part 1 ended and flashed "to be continued". I was like really devastated because im so into the movie.. and Lucy Liu! So I really took time to search in IMDB for any information and viola! Part 2 was also shown on the same year, which is 2010.  Can you feel how desparate I was? Haha! Oh well..

Going back to the movie..

When I already knew that Part 2 was also shown on the same year (because I thought it was a 2012 movie. Fact: youtube also shows latest movies! How cool is that? Yeah, I bet you know all about it.) I immediately search for it in youtube and stream all the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

watch movie here:

Preview:

Lucy Liu plays a social worker in this movie. She has a photographer boyfriend, named Adam, whom she thought will propose to her soon. But things went differently.. then she met the nephew of their family friend priest, Luke, and his best friend and college roommate Harry.

And things became interesting.

From a photographer to an interior designer (Luke) and almost to the very rich bestfriend (Harry).

Now, it's very interesting. But I won't dish out other details of this movie because I might spoil it.

So go ahead and watch it!

Lucy Liu is so HOT! And the castle made me realize that it will take a few weeks before you will memorize every corner of it.. or maybe a year.

PS.
I thought it would be Harry. Pout!

The Awesome Ipanema Fashion Show

I always loved Ipanema. They never fail to bring unique style.

They make not-just-your-ordinary slippers!

My favorite!

 Hands down to Ipanema & Bambu for a very unique and awesome fashion show that was held last October 12 at Abreeza's Activity Center.

The Fashion show was so colorful and full of life!
It was full of most-likely contemporary dancing mixed with a theater like performance but was not able to confuse it with the main purpose of the show - which is to introduce the new set of flip flop designs & collections of Ipanema

Giving away some limited edition laptop bags!

And the winner is...

Gave out some new pairs of flip flops before the proper fashion show started.

Sharee got a new pairs of slippers!

Ipanema that night featured amazing styles from their new collection and
I can tell from the designs what that I saw is that people will really dig it.

Fashionistas and bloggers were invited to the event but the show was for everybody.
The show was engaging because not only it's one of a kind presentation but I got to see the latest style from Ipanema. And I spotted 2 slippers that I want to buy soon!

And this is the fashion show proper

Kudos to ya'all for a great fashion show!

My Old & New Ipanema's!

Thanks Ipanema!

Ipanema slippers are comfort plus style. I have my own pair in a basic black color and I love how it completes my simple and relaxing outfit! Plus, it doesn't let me down when it comes to comfort.
Whenever I decide to wear something that is laid back, I always use my black Ipanema and it completes my outfit.

So I thank you Bambu (ooh, I got my Ipanema's from them!) & Ipanema for a great fashion show!
One of the unforgettable events that i've ever been to.

The Legacy of Sumo Sam and Marvin Agustin on the side.

The invitation

Sumo Sam is now on its third branch here in Davao.

It is actually called The Legacy of Sumo Sam And it is said to be quite different from the branches that opened.

Well, what makes it different from the other Sumo Sam's is that they're  going to feature guest chefs every now and then, as said by the principal owner Mr. Raymund Magdaluyo

Fortunate enough to be there.

Some of the bloggers were invited to dine and chat with the owners of the newly opened branch.

And one of them was me!

I was lucky enough to meet the great actor and chef Marvin Agustin, part owner of Sumo Sam.

And along with them was the owner of the three Sumo Sam branches in Davao, Carlo Lorenzana.

On that day, they served us their best selling dishes.

They served us the sumo sam pride salad - which was the best!

-the sauce added a uniquely special taste to it.

Also, 4 types of maki's - California Roll, Cunchy Tuna Roll, Dynamite Roll and the Mt. Apo Roll.

What I like about their Makis is that it has toppings, adds more flavor to each bite.

Dynamite Roll was one of a kind for me, much more spicy but doesn't overtake the taste of the other contents. When it comes to their Tuna Roll, unlike any other tuna roll that I have tasted, this one has more "tuna effect" than the others that I have tried before. The tuna wasn't that limited, it somehow beats the rice that wraps around it.

For the ever famous California Maki. It has its own twist and not the ordinary type. Well, I have always believe that all California Makis taste the same until I tried Sumo Sam's version. Just so you know that I always order California Maki in any restaurant and I can tell that their is something different in the Sumo Sam way.

And for Mt. Apo Roll, the Davao meets Japan Maki, It has a touch of Davao's King of Fruits: Durian.

For me, it's a must-taste maki.

Aside from those, they also gave us a chance to taste Kani Nori Tempura, Vegetable Kakiage, Chicken Yakitori & Sesame Chicken.

 Among those 5 foods that I just mentioned, Chicken Yakitori and Sesame Chicken are my 2 new favorite Japanese food.

Food that I suggest you to try is their California Roll, Dynamite Roll, Tuna Roll& Mt. Apo Roll. Also, the Salad and Chicken Yakitori. Those are the food that really caught my palate.

My boyfriend got jealous when he heard that im going to this Sumo Sam event.

I can actually feel him now reading this post and feeling really really sad that he never got to try Sumo Sam yet.

But so much for that, meanwhile enjoy this pictures during the Dine & Chat event with Marvin Agustin.

I miss his movies with Jolina M.
