Need For Speed: World - Beta


Just applied for the beta, and I hope I'll be one of the picked lucky tester for the game. I used to play Most Wanted and Undercover, and they're good for me. I'm so excited to try this NFSW out, I think it's going to be like Most Wanted and Undercover but with more new cars and it's online. 

Here are some of its features:

  • Massively-multiplayer Need for Speed racing action in a huge online NFS world.
  • Compete in a host of exciting new races as well as classic game modes. (Details to be revealed!)
  • Brag to your friends about your wins – or taunt them over their losses – in World's online community, including Facebook/Twitter support.
  • Create a street racing legend with RPG-style progression as you tailor your driver and gameplay experience with solo and multiplayer races.
  • A huge selection of authentic licensed vehicles, as well as thousands of parts enable you to turn your car from happy cruiser to snarling beast.
  • The best car customization engine ever seen in a driving game. If you can dream it, you can create it in World.
  • And much, much more… We'll be constantly revealing new information for Need for Speed World so be sure to check back often!

First time on Baguio City

(Baguio City)

Yes, it was my first time in Baguio City ever. XD Went there with my family, grandfather and some of my cousins. I thought it's still hot there since I still felt the heat of the weather that day. During the trip, I listened to some songs of Girls' Generation and 4Minute, thanks to Dad for lending me the mp4. At the Kennon Road, I suddenly felt that my ears were congested. Dad told us that it was because of the change of air pressure.

Pasinaya 2010 and 4Minute

(4Minute Talk - SM North)

9:30am
Went to Pasinaya CCP Open House Festival 2010 to be exempted from a quiz in my HUM16 subject. Upon arriving there, I was clueless on where to go next. What I did is I just followed the other students. I was supposed to find my prof. there to sign the attendance sheet. Good thing was my prof was able to approach me first in the entrance before giving a donation to enter the festival. There were too many students from other schools, most of them looks like from elementary to highschool level. I don't know where to go next and I saw some of my classmates so I decided to follow them, we watched Senakulo 2010 performed by Samahang Nazareno.

JRock: Shonen Knife + Pedicab Concert


After a week of ticket reservation, I received an email from Ms. Bambi Diaz, Program Officer of Arts & Culture of The Japan Foundation, Manila. It says in the email that the concert venue was moved to the San Miguel by the Bay from the centerstage in order to accommodate more people.

Below is the message from the email:
Good day!
 
We would like to inform you that we have moved the J-Rock Concert featuring Shonen Knife and Pedicab, to SM MOA San Miguel by the Bay (from Centerstage) to accommodate more people who would like to watch the show. There are no seats at the concert venue (it IS a rock concert ;) )so we will not be reserving any.
 
Bad news: Your previous reservations will not be applied anymore. Good news: You may bring as many friends as you want!
 
Please do join us at J-Rock Concert featuring Shonen Knife & Pedicab, February 27, Saturday, 7:30 pm at the San Miguel by the Bay, SM Mall of Asia.
