Playback: Riverbanks Fireworks Display 2014

12/30/2015 12:11:43 PM

Every December 30, Marikina Riverbanks celebrated their yearend party at the center’s amphitheater, with thousands of MarikeƱos and people from the nearby cities witnessing a night of music and the grand fireworks display every year and setting a fitting end to everyone with the very lively vibe even though it’s already past midnight.

And for the nth time, it will happen once again tonight.

Yay or Nay? The Shockers, Stunners and Suckers of 2014 (Part 1)

12/30/2014 2:07:38 PM

Honestly speaking, I was in doubt for naming this post Shockers of 2014. I know: every year: news will always shock us, regardless if it runs on the same old shitty cycle or not.

But I beg to digress and I can’t help it. It’s like every year there will be happenings here in the metro, or somewhere in the country, or even around the globe that will wake our consciousness, regardless if it sounds stupid or legit; if it contains shallowness or well-excavated depth; or just because of a prominent name alone. Anyone who’s been scrutinizing all the current events and news should know there are key elements why such stories made it to the communication medium no matter how much we hate it or love it.

I tried recalling most (if not all) of the news that struck us in the year 2014 and gave my take on them as much as I can. If it differs on your point of view, then who cares anyway?

All stories enlisted on this article are arranged randomly.

It’s back, and they have gone a bit earlier.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: Emotional SONA

8/3/2014 12:48:49 PM

Kakaiba raw ang State of the Nation Address  ni Pangulong Benigno Aquino noong nakaraang Lunes. Napakabihira ang mga parasaring, di tulad ng mga nakaraang SONA niya ah.

The Finale Rematch

6/7/2014 10:57:36 AM

It’s on again, like an Alicia Keys and Kendrick Lamar soundtrack, as after one exhilarating season accompanied by tune-up changes in roster and several off-court controversies as well as shifting of records, statistical averages and awards garnered, it all comes down to one grand finale—two teams squaring off against each other once again.

The Rundown Slam: WWE Extreme Rules 2014

5/21/2014 8:31:25 AM

Everything just went extreme during that first Sunday of May 2014, as the World Wrestling Entertainment unleashed their latest edition of the Extreme Rules pay-per-view event held May 4 at the Izod Center in East Rutherford.


And over that three-hour stretch, I can only come with few takes regarding the matter, but too bad the Wee-LC match between El Torrito and Hornswoggle was not shown on air though. I can only manage to catch-up via their highlights aired during the evening. On the shallow aspect, it was indeed entertaining.

There are five first round match-ups that culminated into game 7 on the NBA playoffs recently.


Well, what’s new? Definitely, a lot!

The Pre-Take: Extreme Rules

5/3/2014 10:29:10 PM

As much as everything goes stale for me in the pro wrestling world (specifically I haven’t even wrote my separate takes for the battles for this past Wrestlemania), here are my predictions for WWE Extreme Rules 2014:

Just My Opinion: The 2014 NBA All-Star Game

2/20/2014 7:20:21 PM

Perhaps, here’s something that I am doing for the second straight year: my take on the NBA All-Star Game.
Wait a second; have you noticed that during the past few years, three of the host cities in the mid-2000s were the same ones who got a chance to host another All-star weekend event?

If you hadn’t... well, I did. First, it was Los Angeles (2004 and 2011), then Houston (2006 and 2012), and now... New Orleans (2008 and 2014).

2014 na! Eh Ano Ngayon?

1/27/2014 9:13:24 AM

Pasensya na kung inabot ako ng siyam-siyam sa paggagawa ng mga bagong posts ha? Dpaat nga bago matapos ang 2013 ay naisagawa ko na ang artikulong ito. Kaya lang dahil sa maraming constraints na pinagdaanan ng inyong lingkod sa nakalipas na halos isang buwan, medyo naparalisa ako dun ah.

Anyway, tara na’t 2014 na at bagong taon na – 27 days na nga ang nakalipas eh – kaya bago-bago din ng mga habit pag may time.
