Product Review: Lenovo Vibe Shot

10.19.2015 by Leah // 1 Comment

I got myself a new Android smartphone 2 weekends ago, the Lenovo Vibe Shot. I've been using Lenovo gadgets for close to 2 years now and I'm very satisfied with their performance.  The smartphone I was using before the upgrade was Lenovo K900 and it has served as my camera backup in many occasions, earning raves from my colleagues and readers alike when they saw my crisp and ...

LBC Shipping Cart: A Review

08.29.2015 by Leah // 13 Comments

(Text by our resident guest writer - AJ De Leon. Pictures by yours truly.) I really wanted that bowling ball, for the fact that it looks so cool and different. That it’s unavailable to purchase from bowling pro shops here in our country added to its desirability factor.  Plus, we were thinking that shipping a heavy item like this ball is one good way to measure how LBC would ...

Starting my day right with McDonald’s all-new Cheesy Eggdesal

07.25.2015 by Leah // Leave a Comment

I am a breakfast person.  I can skip lunch but not breakfast.  I go to the office extra early so I can enjoy my breakfast longer, then I'm off to a busy day with meetings and/or projects to attend to. When it comes to breakfast food, I am not exactly picky.  On an ordinary day I would have pandesal + scrambled eggs + black coffee (no sugar, no cream).  Or just Nestlé Acti-V ... READ MORE

Product Review: Novuhair 3-in-1 Pack Organic Hair Solution

07.06.2014 by Leah // 30 Comments

The combination of age (I'm in my late 30's), thyroid disease (hyperthyroidism) and a stressful work environment made me very prone to hair loss.  I've actually been observing this since I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism more than 10 years ago, but it was not until recently that I decided to really do something about it because I feared that as I grow older, the ...

Product Review: Asahi Convection Oven

02.03.2014 by Leah // 155 Comments

If I will be asked to name a kitchen appliance that newly-wed couples should immediately invest in, it's the convection oven.  We belatedly bought ours in August last year and right now, we use it more than we use our microwave oven and gas stove.  There's just so much you can do with a convection oven and so much flexibility as compared to, say, microwave oven or oven ...

Product Review: Terro Ant Killer

01.12.2014 by Leah // 9 Comments

I'm introducing something new at The Bright Spot this year, and that is a regular feature on the products that I've tested or used, and can swear by its effectiveness (or the lack of it). I've done product reviews in this blog years ago but they're not as detailed as I wanted them now to be.  Also, product reviews this time will have a label ("Product Review") in the post ...

9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi 9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi came to us super dirty (gusgusin to the max), malnourished and is in bad need of treatment for worms and fleas. Who would've thought that she will bloom into a really pretty cat, with salmon-colored nose, beautiful doe eyes, a prominent white hair scarf, and powdery white cheeks. 

But she is very far from innocent, and is now feared by the male cats here twice her size because she is #GigitheCatBully pala 😅 

Happy 9th monthsary, Gigi Ganda 🥰

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
