RED Mobile huh?

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account 

So a competitor to SUN Cellular Network has finally risen huh?  About time! Haha! What better way to get rid of the excess users than have them transfer to other networks, I am speaking as a user of the said network.  Pretty soon the cell users' population will be well distributed.  :)

I think the RED Mobile will be crowded at first.  The SIM that only costs 39php, it's new, has a cool name, and it's under smart.  Smart having better signal, covering a wider range of area, we probably can expect about the same performance on signal for this new network.

The weird part though that I don't get is why they made it to only fit 3G phones?  Tsk tsk.  So those without 3G phones will not be able to avail of there services.  Anyhoo, as for me, I think I'd like to give this network a try. :)  

Plus, Elwin just text messaged me about it.  He said that we should try switching to RED Mobile. :D  That's why I got into browsing about it in the first place.  Prior to him mentioning it to ne, I didn't hear a word about it. haha! 

We cellphone users now have a lot of options to choose from:
Globe,  Touch Mobile, Smart, Talk & Text, Addict Mobile (is this a network? not sure.),  any other networks I fogot to mention?  And the new entrant to compete with the existing networks (most especially with the SUN Network) --- the new RED Mobile!  


Here's what I got off the internet while I was browsing:

Red Mobile website officially launched

Published by: yuga under: Mobile , Telecoms.
posted: November 22nd, 2008

The new Red Mobile website has been launched and we finally have the details of the service.
Based on initial impressions, the Red Mobile service looks like it’s aimed to compete with Sun Cellular.
Some key offerings below:

• Php0.50 per minute call rate between Red Mobile to Red Mobile SIM.
• SIM card is sold at Php39 each. Each SIM is pre-loaded with Php10 or an equivalent of 20 minutes of RM-RM calls.
• 3G browsing rates is P7.50 for every 15 mins or an equivalent Php30 per hour.
• Php10 minimum load denomination.

Red Mobile SIM must be used with a 3G capable handset. Likewise, service is limited to areas where there are 3G signals. This is because CURE has an NTC license for a 3G band so they cannot operate outside of their frequency.
This will cover all cities in the country as well as major regions. It might not work if you’re in a far-away island or in mountainous regions. You will have to consult Red Mobile support for availability of their service.
Disclosure: Red Mobile is an advertiser on this blog and several other blogs I author.

thoughts for your thoughts...


When one likes someone, does the other person (the person you like) have the right to know?
Is the right for the person being crushed on existent at all?

If only we go back to being children, in the sense that we are honest.
Each of us freely saying and showing to others what and how we truly feel.
It is sad how a crush only remains as a crush, it will indeed be heart-crushing.
There are those who love, love even when the love they give is not reciprocated.
Not because the other does not love at all, simply because they are unaware,
or perhaps you are just not too obvious with how you feel.

To the crushee, this "hidden agenda" of yours may go unnoticed, or it may even be just annoying to them.
You may act in certain ways that doesn't makes sense to the crushee since they do not know how the
crusher is feeling.

There is a sad reality in this whole "Crush" thing that usually goes unnoticed.
There are those crushes that will always stay in your heart, engraved, and forever unmoved.
The crusher is left with wondering what could have been, if only.  Yes, if only.
And to the crushee, all these will make no sense, all these makes no difference.
Maybe the crushee has no idea at all what it was about the crusher, him/her acting the way he/she did.
Or maybe the crushee too, will forever wonder what might have happened if only the truth was told.
Maybe he/she (most likely she) was just waiting... waiting for something to be said.
Would it have been the two them together?  Would it have been that they'll be in a wonderful relationship?
Yes, because what if the crushee is also crushing on the crush!
omG! What have you guys done?!!

Leaving things in silence, unspoken, unmoved, and left behind.
All that's left for both of you is to wonder.
Wondering is all you'll have, and sadly, maybe even some regret.
This "wondering" might haunt you up to the day that you are with another,
maybe up to when you are married and with kids already.
You will just wonder.
Could it have been the crushee just needed someone to help him/her realize?
Could it have been the crusher and the crushee together?
Could it have been them if only one of them would have said something sooner? 

We can only wonder.  No one can really tell...

Oh well, that's life~

Fire Happened

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account 

So the usual Sunday happened.

       I lazily got up around 10am after getting more or less 7 hours of sleep.  I stayed up late on the phone with Elwin.  I played with Miggy a bit, the birthday dog.  I took a shower and got some pretzels to go and hold off the hunger I felt.  Sacred Heart Church was packed as usual, especially since we were a few minutes late.  Right after we finished the mass we were off to Ayala, the mall place for our family.  Dad drops us off the entrance as he goes and park the car.  My sister, mother, and I- I'd like to say we're a team in this kind of thing, heads to foodchoices.  Holly goes off and looks for a table with my mom and I go line up for the ever-so-wanted lechon [CNT].  The line is usually long but not today since we arrived later than usual that others already had their orders taken and by now they were all busy eating.  Mom goes to me after they get a table.  After we order, by this time Dad's already with us.  Holly and Mom then finishes with all the other orders from other stores.  After eating mom and I went to Maze, had a phone fixed cause she'll be sending it to her brother, it took a while. 

       We headed to the Salon right after, Holly went strolling around and my Dad was off to do the groceries.  So I was sitting down, feet soaked.  Then the pedicure began.  I noticed some people were looking curiously across the glass window of the Salon, I thought at first someone fainted or something but I didn't pay too much attention to it.  I am not fond of getting into other people's business.  So after one of my foot got painted, I saw Holly starting towards me with a facial expression that seemed like she was worried or panicking.  She said that there's fire within the mall.  I saw the lady across me rushing up the manicurist to finish up while she was on the phone with whom I assume was her son/daughter.  She was asking where their child was and was saying that his/her dad was on the way with panic in her voice.  I remained calm, I thought the fire could be contained, nothing big.  Suddenly my manicurist got up, people started out the door,  I saw my mom and Holly and they gestured that we go out the door.  Outside I saw some people panic in ways I have only seen in TV.  One woman looking back and forth not knowing where to head off to.  My sister was way ahead of us, me and my mom followed behind her.  We got out at the entertainment center.  On our way out I was shaking a bit, trying so hard to contact my dad.  I finally got to reach him, he said he's in the car and trying to get out and it wasn't easy because of the traffic jam in the underground parking lot.  The first thing I did when we got out was call my boyfriend, but he didn't pick up. 

       I saw a familiar Chinese guy go out of a rad black big pick-up car.  He's last name is Tan I'm sure, he's Ahia Mark, Achie Lenlen, and Achie Dada's brother.  He hurriedly got off his ride with the fireman suite in his hand, running off inside the mall as people were hurriedly running out.  It was inspiring to see that guy, kind of made me want to be a volunteer fire woman someday, made me proud of the Filipino-Chinese people too.  My dad and I were quite sure he was a Filipino-Chinese volunteer fireman, their station located beside Cebu Cherish School near Chong Hua Hospital.  Brave people those guys.  We rode off home, me with one painted foot. 

       I guess that was not a near death experience or anything, but it sure made me feel the kind of panic you'd only see in movies.  I hope no one got hurt. 

It was not like the usual Sunday after all.

Best Friend

To the one I knew so well
Hello there! How are you? 
Has life been treating you well? 
I’m glad we met again

To the one I knew so well
It was years of friendship we had made
Then the time came, both of us parted
It was a bitter goodbye

To the one I knew so well
We both shared everything before
But after those goodbyes we left
Then we never heard of each other

To the one I knew so well
You thought you knew me well too, didn’t you? 
But how come you never felt
I loved you more than just a friend

To the one I knew so well
Years apart really do a lot
Now you’re married
I find myself in an awkward spot

To the one I knew so well
It was nice seeing you again
The pain I felt over the years never felt more real
Now I bid you once again, farewell
