hunger is a major problem worldwide. all your faculties will not work well with an empty stomach. lucky for us who don't experience extreme hunger, we have at least a little muffin, and even go for a costly frapp or coffee and have a chitchat with friends. with money to spend, our problem is to choose what to eat, what to drink, where to eat. but what about those whom we don't know? we don't realize that there are a lot of people who think if they have something to eat or if they can survive another day. researches have shown that there are 1 out 6 children go to school hungry resulting to poor performance in school. and levels have been increasing that most kids do not graduate from school. worse, they die in the middle of hunger. fighting hunger is one of the millennium development goals of the United Nations which include the Philippines. and as one with the world, the special unit of UN fighting against hunger, World Food Program, has initiated a campaign to address MDG #1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. this initiative is called Walk the World which goes for 6 years already worldwide. a simultaneous walk and run against hunger from 5AM of May 29, 2011 at the SM Mall of Asia Grounds in Pasay City invites all running enthusiasts who advocate the eradication of hunger and to help people improve their lives by eating healthy. there are three categories in which a person/group can join: 3K - Open Category, Php 250, with event shirt, starts at 6AM 5K - Men/Women's Categories, Php 500, with race kit, singlet and baller ID, starts at 545AM 10K- Group Category, Php 10,000, with race kit, singlet, baller ID, button pins and team plaque, starts at 530AM see last year's video of Walk the World featuring World Food Program Ambassador KC Concepcion who joined hundreds of people in the walk.

living for 100 DAYS

if you were asked, "what if you only have 100 days to live?" the generic answers would be: forgive everyone who sinned you, travel a lot, live healthy, pray for another 100 days, donate to charity and everything good that you would think. but those who have a lot think about it. but what if you come from this kind of home:

they have been suffering for not just 100 days of their life. it's a lifetime. they want everything to improve, to be easier, to be a breeze. just like what Ana Manalastas had experienced and had made her stronger through the years. strong enough that she doesn't care anymore of what others may feel. she had become terrible in the eyes of others.

when she died in an accident, she had been rejected from Heaven and brought back to earth for a chance to correct what she had done. and she would do also the same things i've mentioned above. now she have to deal with everyone... as a child. to fulfill her mission with only 100 Days to Heaven.

this values-filled comedy-drama will try to capture the emotions and teach a valuable lesson to each and every viewer. starring Ms. Coney Reyes as Ana Manalastas, the insensitive and practical boss, who falls down from Heaven and Xyriel Manabat, as the young Ana Manalastas who will do the mission and learn something from it.

on May 9, lives will be changed and values will be formed. watch 100 Days to Heaven after TV Patrol World in ABS-CBN Primetime. Kuha mo?

FAST AND THE FURIOUS 5 movie review

Universal Pictures gives the 5th installment of the hard-core car-busting action overload Fast and the Furious 5: Summer Heist. now back with Paul Walker and Vin Diesel as the dynamic duo with the intensely customized cars in high fashion and speed.

in Fast 5, we look back to how Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) got himself in prison and managed to escape with the help of former enemy O'Connor (Paul Walker). they have moved to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in order to put down a vicious drug lord, Reyes and to escape from the relentless FBI agent, Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson).

joined by his team, they had formulated the best plan to put down the most powerful man in Rio and had successfully made a change in their lives. they had given the value of each other and treated one another as family.

Fast 5 contains more action and story than cars. i think that they had developed more on the story than the machines. there are also more manual fights and blasts. unlike the other 4 prequels, this movie had to be more emotional for the characters other than giving way to the amusement of the eyes to feast on high-end customized cars.

you have to watch until a little bit at the end. you will be surprised on what will be next. there's someone coming back and i think you know her. *hint*

Fast and the Furious 5: Summer Heist begins showing in Philippine theaters starting Cinco de Mayo.
