Saturday, November 27, 2010

 Title : Bleach The Hell Chapter
Release Date : Dec 4, 2010

Tite Kubo was more participative in the last movie, Fade to Black (and I really love that he really cares for Ichiruki! :D) than this one.

The story looks more interesting than the previous

This is the full song by T.M. Revolution.



This is the special chapter for this movie:

It sucked that I have to wait for July 2011 or sooner than that to watch this. Anyway, I'll just enjoy watching previews and read the spoilers.

COSMOPOLITAN SALON vs. HEAVEN'S BEAUTY SALON & SPA

Tuesday, November 16, 2010

I really want to have a nice, smooth and straight hair but I don't have enough money back then for this hair treatment.

September 2009, My sisters gave me money for my first hair rebonding. My hair didn't got any treatment even hair relax and digital perming except for hair spa years ago.( In short, I have a virgin hair ^^ ) I decided to go to Cosmopolitan Salon - Dapitan branch 

Their rebond with washable cellophane costs P1500. Having cellophane is a must so hair will not become brittle/damaged.

I got treated for 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Even the salon is small, it has many customers especially students. (this branch is near UST). I didn't wash my hair for 3 days and I can clip my hair after 3 months. I know that hair must not be put behind the ear but after 1 month, I did it and my hair is still straight.

The staff said that I must have it power dosed or I have to get my hair treated every 1 or 2 months so I can maintain my healthy hair but I really didn't follow it. I know that my hair isn't really dry to get those treatments and if it isn't, there are many home made remedies or I can use oil to prevent brittleness/dryness.


I have curly hair when I was a baby, then, I have straight hair during pre-school until the 6th grade. Then it became wavy during high school until my 3rd college year.









This is my hair 7 months after the treatment. Hair is really a crowning glory and it made a huge difference in my appearance.





My rebonded hair lasted for one year. I got my haircut at Tony and Jacky, a korean salon, so I can grew my hair longer with a style and without having a growing frizzy hair.

I don't want to get my hair rebonded during hot days so I don't get sweat too much. I really waited for November or December. 

Three days ago, I decided to get my hair rebonded again. I visited Heaven's Beauty Salon & Spa (Quirino Highway, Sangandaan branch). My elder sister also got her hair rebonded in that salon and she is getting good results. Not only good results but also results in a cheap price. The salon is well maintained. The surroundings look more nicer than most cheap salons. Cosmopolitan has more branches than Heaven's but Heaven's (Novaliches branch) has a bigger space.

I know the picture quality sucked. I used my Ericsson cellphone. I cannot capture the salon's front and also the sign board because it is too bright outside and the phone has no zoom feature.  









My elder sister availed rebond w/ permanent cellophane for 1300.

Darn it! I didn't reach their promo period so I got Package 2 - hair rebond w/ permanent cellophane and haircut for P1227. 

I ate first at Jollibee. Then, I went to Heaven's at 9am. I was the first customer that day. They got many customers. Majority of them will have hair rebond treatments, foot spa and pedicure because they availed the P1400 package. The salon has a security guard. Most of the staff are male. There are only 4 females including the receptionist. I expect that the two gays will be in the hair cut service but for my mistake, they are in the spa service.

My treatment was finished at 3pm. The salon closes at midnight.

Hair rebonding here costs 750. If w/ permanent cellophane, it costs 1185.

Their 1400 hair rebond package has foot spa, power dose, keratin and other treatments included.

My younger sister also went this morning to get her hair rebonded.


COSMOPOLITAN SALON: near UST dapitan gate.

Pros: accommodating staff, cheap price, popular salon
Cons: the sink makes my neck stiff.


HEAVEN'S BEAUTY SALON & SPA: near Jollibee and Mang Inasal. (see also the pics above so you can get clue about the surroundings)

351 Quirino Highway Brgy Sangandaan, Quezon City
Tel no: 3920309

Pros: more accommodating staff, cheaper price with a nice space and a well maintained ambiance than other cheap salons.

Cons: No magazines or other reading materials. I suggest you should bring something to read or play so you won't get bored.

Civil Service Exam Reviewer Book

 UPDATE!! 12/2010

The results are now available.Congratulations to the passers!

Thank God, I passed the professional exam. :D

Aside from online downloads of civil service reviewers. I found an inexpensive reviewer that REALLY RESEMBLES THE ACTUAL EXAM UNLIKE MSA REVIEWERS. Don't waste money on those kind of reviewers. I bought a photocopy of an MSA reviewer but only few did resemble the actual exam. Difficult questions here aren't worth reviewing.

I took the Civil Service Professional Exam, October 17.

I admit that I really didn't review very well especially the age problems in algebra. I am also weak in vocabulary but this book's questions is really a big help.

The book's cover isn't great unlike the others but the content isn't really garbage.

This is the 2010 edition

The best free online reviewer is this: (I didn't upload this)

Just practice answering questions and you will probably ( definitely ) pass the exam.

Cafe Mary Grace

The reason for not updating within more than one month is being busy on my first job. I cannot leave this blog like this so I will share to you my food/restaurant review.




I ate at Cafe Mary Grace - Trinoma branch, ground floor, near National Bookstore.

My curiosity about a small space with a home style ambiance feeling makes me want to try their desserts. Since I am really a pasta lover, I end up eating pasta and a slice of tiramisu.

They have magazines while you wait. Tables are filled with nice notes/stationeries addressing to Mary Grace.

 

For pastas, prices ranges from 260+ pesos. The tiramisu slice is P90+



I ate their tiramisu. The taste is okay. I should bought a slice of their mango or strawberry cake instead of this. If you are a coffee addict. This will surely satisfies your appetite.

Their carbonara is so delicious. Their pasta is a thin fettuccine (not the normal wide ones). They cooked it really al dente. The white sauce has bacon bits also and some green vegetable bits.

(Sorry for not having the pics of the food I ate because I didn't have my cellphone that time ^^)

The staff are really friendly and accommodating. Service charge is 8% so it's okay if you will not give them a tip.

If you stumbled in this cafe, Try it! It will be worth your visit and appetite!

Kuroshitsuji II a.k.a Black Butler 2 review (FINAL EP)

Saturday, September 18, 2010

I watched the english subbed the so called last episode/ episode 12 last night.I hope there will really be episode 13 or another season for this.

I expect that Alois and Ciel will have a battle of the wits since watching it from episode 4 but my imagination didn't really came true.

Hannah really is a master planner! I even like her more.

 Both Ciel and Alois got a nice ending. Ciel for his revenge accomplished, fulfilled contract and a free ( I mean without having to pay for the wage or salary) butler.  Poor Sebastian, he can't eat Ciel's soul. I also pity Lizzy for being left alone. His servants do really care about him.


For Alois, he can now join Luka, Hannah and Claude. I am glad he made the butlers fight without getting their meal especially Claude. Honestly, I am a fan of Alois Trancy and I really like him. I like the way Yana Toboso created his character. I also like Ciel but in this season I love Alois more and Ciel annoys me a lot. He is a selfish brat.


The whole season is dumber than the previous one. At first, while watching the second season, I got really thrilled and excited every episode because of its unpredictability and plot twist but the ending is like WTF.

I find this dancing part very cute
I know that many hates Lizzy. I think animators really intended to make Lizzy annoying. For me, she is a little bit annoying in the anime and in the manga, she isn't. I still like her and she is really cute and adorable. Her mom, Mrs. Frances Middleford, is also cool and badass.


I prefer the season one because of more detailed plot, characters and the balance of hilarity and seriousness. I really love the curry arc and the introduction of Meirin's, Bard's and Finny's backgrounds.


I expect the ending more cruel and better. It is cool that Ciel turned into a demon but I found the contract stupid and not having an awesome smart way response like I experienced in Code Geass and especially Death Note.
Lelouch, is this you? ^^
 This season is like a doujinshi/shounen ai anime made by Yanao Rock.
Yanao Rock is Yana Toboso's pen name when she was making yaoi manga (ex. Glamorous Lip) back then. I also want to read Rust Blaster.


 If we do the math here, Ciel's birth date is 14th December 1875 meaning he is 13 years old in the anime. Alois's birthdate is November 5, 1875.

Meaning they are both 13 years old.


I hope it will not be the ending or almost the same in the manga.

I will still read it and like I said in my first blog about Kuroshitsuji 2. The manga is 10x better.

The shounen-ai parts are more on interpretation and fanservice unlike in the second season that the anime is obviously gay. If I am a boy, I'll not consider this as a shounen anime.

Anyway, I'll wait for the Kuroshitsuji OVA release.
