What TV Would Give You the Ultimate Home Experience?

Photo: http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/image/SamsungUS/un65ks8000fxza-hero-0812?$product-details-jpg$

On weekends I am a homebuddy! And I personally love watching chick flicks and movie marathon with family and friends in the comfort of my very own home. I especially prefer watching on a wide & flat screen TV. The classic way but with updated technology.

I take into consideration the resolution because I like to feel as part of the movie also the surround sound as well to complete the experience. As a millenial we so have a lot of considerations from quality to budget.

The brand Samsung emerge, especially, Samsung KS800 which performed way better than the existing Samsung Q7F QLED TV.

According to reviews, the QLED performance did not match up with KS800 both contrast and peak brightness measure well above what the Q7F was able to output, especially in SDR. The Q7 does do better with color volume, and this does help with HDR content. QLED seemed overpriced also.

It has taken to some consideration the trend of Samsung is going down and as the masses/reviews has put into both they prefer the previous

Now we got a new condo and its my prime obligation to scout for a flat screen TV . We would put it up for rent and our target are the millennials so we have to match everything current. So can you guys suggest a watch worthy and reasonable flat screen?

KIX Asia, Thrill Presents: Crow’s blood

Prepare for a lot of sleepless nights as Thrill shows new episodes of Crow’s Blood every Thursday at 10pm starting July 27! Tune in! – on THRILL!

I question those who can actually watch a horror series or film. How do you do that? For me I have to make sure I watch it on the morning and I’m not alone in the house. Privilege watching at home you skip those parts you feel something is gonna appear and come out of no where.

Whether you’re a fan of the spooky tales from Japan or the intense storylines from the US, you will get to enjoy the best of both worlds because Thrill, Asia’s only regional horror, thriller and suspense movie channel, will give you a new Japanese horror show that will premiere on July 27!

From executive producer, Darren Lyn Bousman, who also directed Saw II, III and IV comes Crow’s Blood, a thrilling story about a transfer student named Togawa Maki played by Sakura Miyawaki of the music group AKB 48.

Strange things start to happen when Maki arrives at an all-girl’s high school. Upon arriving, other kids seem distant and hesitant to become friends with her. Although one girl named Kaoru Isozaki (played by Mayu Watanabe from AKB 48) opens the doors of her friendship to Maki. As Maki grows close to Kaoru, she becomes weirdly obsessed with her.

Little do people know that Maki isn’t just your typical average student, she is a reanimated corpse brought back to life. Her father tried using an untested regeneration virus on her in an attempt to bring her back to life. Will she fit in with the kids of today’s society? That’s for you to find out!

Feel your spine tingle and watch human beings attempt to play God in this modern day series of science and technology. Get ready to hide under your blankets as you journey inside the mind of Maki and follow her day to day in this series full of blood, love and mystery in the modern Japanese society.

Thrill is available on (Skycable Ch. 107, Cablelink Ch. 201, Destiny Cable Ch. 11 and Cignal Ch. 51). For more information, you can log on to www.thrill-tv.com or www.facebook.com/WatchThrill.

My Tarot Reading for 2017: Third Eye Wellness

Before turning 24, I feel this year is the turning point of my career where I think I have to actually get my life together but I still feel lost. I have lots of questions and sometimes we need a guide. I always wanted to get a TAROT reading – from last year’s mandala event I got a reading there are a lot of things going on. I am not 100% into it but its just a guide, nothing is wring and YOU are still the captain of your own ship to navigate.

Madam Neetu upon meeting her she has this calm aura but I felt nervous because I don’t know what she may see in may fate. I’ll be sharing tidbits of my reading because some are personal.

She starts off my, giving you a shakra (place it near your heart). She then, gets your full name and birthday. For me I was born June 17 – Planet Saturn, a karmic planet. Like If I do something, something happens. She advices I donate BLACK every saturday.

When it comes to the reading part, you can start of by GENERAL or SPECIFIC.I started with general, I have to shuffle the cards and then laid down the deck of cards and she said to pick 13 cards using your LEFT HAND. The left hand is associated with the right hemisphere of the brain (I can’t recall the actual ration why LEFT HAND). So I picked up 13 cards. She read for the coming 6 months will be GOOD, she said one of the best she’s seen. That’s when I started to calm down. She read I am privilege (looking at my mom – I am grateful to my parents), I am into luxury items and she tells me to TRAVEL a lot this year.

Going to the specifics, so I have to shuffle the cards, place them into decks, puts them down and pick using my LEFT hand.

My reading according to Ma’am Neetu – I’m just gonna give GENERAL okay? I don’t want to jinx it. Hope you guys would understand

CAREER: I have to WAIT. (This is the most general I can say). Good opportunities local and abroad – my choice. She emphasized to TRAVEL.

BLOG: Continue and more projects! Yay!

LOVELIFE: I don’t want to give all details but I have to be the woman I need to be (sorry the most CLICHE I could say) , I have to show that I am AVAILABLE, getover the PAST and then (In God’s will, me saying this), that PROTECTIVE someone will come.

At the end guys, I am still the one who is going to decide on my faith. So far its been a month, I got a lot of projects lately and hoping for the CLARITY Madam Neetu said.

If you plan to have a session with the gorgeous Madam Neetu, you have to settle an appointment FIRST. Contact att: (02) 808.2984 / 0917.636.2800

They are located at 600A, 6/Fl, 20th Drive Corporate Center, 20th Drive, Mckinley Business Park, Fort Bonifacio. They can be located using WAZE and using the grab car app Third eye wellness also has a cafe, they offer massages and healing as well.

Nailaholics’: Winning London! (5D/4N for 2) + travel tips about my visit

London Calling! Visiting the historic Big Ben, Kensington Palace, State of the art Churches, Tower bridge, the gush of the undeground, wax figures at Madame Taussauds, buying good deals at Tesco and luxury window shopping at Harrods – a tick on my bucketlist at the age of 15. I can’t recall if we rode a double decker tho. It was easter of 2009 when my family and I had the opportunity to visit across the pond from our 8 hour trip coming from Muscat, Oman. My recall(-ing) may not be that vague anymore but seemingly it was a eye- opening cultural experience to see that side of Europe.

At the strike of 5PM some malls close and the pubs stat to open at 6PM. At 7PM, still daylight and it feels like 3 or 4 in the afternoon. I’ve got some trivia about London by watching Mary-Kate and Ashley “London Calling” like the bathroom is called a “loo”, then I remembered asking a friend where’s the comfort room (very pinoy of me) they ain’t familiar, next time kasi washroom kasi HAHA. The question came back to me why pinoys call it “Comfort room”, I said I don’t know either. Speaking of washroom, apparently there are some washrooms that have condoms available at the dispenser – I can’t recall that well (maybe not all). Yes, they are liberated.

Brits are always on the go and strict on time. At the airport all of them were rushing against each other at the immigration. I learned staring is rude and its just mind your own business. They strictly follow the scehdule of the buses. Taking the bus, you just have to follow a certain number to get to your destination. You’ll see a lot of older people still active and strolling with their trolley.

Its the churches and museums that gave me an awe! Wishing I could go back to explore since I’ve aged and appreciate the #wanderlust life. Maybe visit Harry Potter!

That’s why I want my readers to experience the same experience I had, and by joining Nailaholics mechanics this can be your chance!

By simply availing any of Nailaholics’ pampering packages starting from June 1 to September 30, 2017, a customer is entitled to a raffle entry for a chance to win a getaway vacation of 5 days and 4 nights to London for two”

It’s time to grab the chance to walk the streets of London with your mate in exchange of a genuine pampering experience. Watch out for more exciting and rewarding promotions from Nailaholics by visiting its website at http://nailaholics.com/ and Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/nailaholic
