I was doing my Christmas shopping a few days ago when I just realized that I've been buying stuff for almost everyone I know but has not yet decided what to give myself on Dec. 25.
Definitely, I want to have a new gadget. But since the needs of my son Charles has been my priorities lately, all I can do for now is to window shop for my gift. I want to have something that would match not only my need but my personality as well.
Then I saw this question online: "Which Lenovo IdeaPad laptop are you?"
It made me think for awhile but after visiting a few computer shops, It just occur to me that I think I am Lenovo Ideapad U160 because it looks fun and alive in high definition and boast the very best and updated full HD and entertainment features available.
It weigh less than 3 lbs. and is as slim as a quarter is high. Fits in just about any bag or backpack. It is perfect combo with my lifestyle because I am always on the go and wants things to be compact and handy. It also has plenty of ports for speedy wireless, internet and downloading and sharing. Its like me who wants to do things fast because I always have a lot of deadline to meet at work.

Everyday Eveready Moments
You know how significant and dependable a brand is when it becomes synonymous to the product. Take the case of Eveready. You’ll definitely think about batteries when you hear the name, right?
Eveready has been a partner of many Filipinos for 110 years now--- all the way back since we had President Emilio Aguinaldo as our first president. After 15 Presidents and counting, two world wars, hundreds of typhoons and countless of brownouts in the country, Eveready continues to be a part of Pinoy life, both in good times and bad times.
Memories of my Eveready moments suddenly hit me from left to right. Like my lolo who always ask me, “Bilhan mo nga ako ng Eveready para sa radyo ko, apo.”
Hmmm… I have so much Eveready moments that I need to make a list. Yeah, why not? Walking down the memory lane is always fun. So here’s my top Eveready Everyday Moments:
1. Scaring my self during brownouts. Mahilig akong manakot ng mga kalaro ko nung bata pa ko at sa sobrang galling ko e pati sarili ko natatakot ko. Alam kong nasubukan n’yo na din ‘to nung panahon na may naiipit na dikya sa transformer ng NAPOCOR at halos araw-araw walang ilaw: ilagay ang Eveready sa flashlight at humarap sa salamin sa loob ng isang madilim na kuwarto. Buksan ang flashlight at makikita mo sa harap ng salamin ang nakakatakot na nilalang! Nyaaaaaa!
2. When hunting season opens. Noong mga panahong wala pa ang tatlong pabrikang nakapalibot ngayon sa village namin, isang malaking paraiso (enter music bed: Smokey Mountain’s Paraiso) ang bakanteng lote na madaming damo at mga puno. Tuwing gabi gamit ang Eveready flashlight, nanghuhuli kami ng gagamba at salagubang para ipanlaban sa mga taga-kabilang kalsada. Pero ang talagang pinaka-aabangan ko e ang pagpatak ng anting-anting ng puso ng saging na nagbigay ng kapangyarihan kay Ramon Zamora sa pelikulang Pedro Penduko.
3. Brick game is the best game ever. Naalala kong bigla yung dalawang classmate ko nung high school na nagsuntukan dahil nag-agawan sa brickgame na usong-uso noon. Pag wala ka nun, nakatunganga ka lang sa likod ng naglalaro na napapamura pa kapag may maling salansan ng bricks. Siyempre, nung binilhan ako ng nanay ko dahil nagsecond honor ako nung high 2nd year high school, special request ko ang isang pack of 4 na Eveready para sa magdamagang kasiyahan. Hanggang ngayon, nasa cellphone na ang larong brickgame e hindi ko pa din nae-ending ang laro at maligtas yung princess :-(
4. Under the spotlight. Hindi po kanta ang mga susunod na linya. Nakalusong ka na ba sa dagat ng basura? Nag-aral ka na ba habang may brown out at baha? Finals namin sa school kaya kailangang mag-aaral kahit baha sa sala at brownout pa din kahit isang linggo na mula nun bumagyo. Kelangang mag-improvise kasi nga 2nd honor ako at dapat i-apply ang natutunan ko sa electronics class. Bumili ako ng bumbilyang maliit, maikling wire at 9 volts na Eveready at gumawa ng lampshade for yagits. Kung may Wish Ko Lang na nun, baka na-feature ako dahil sa emote ko na pang-Oscars: studying in the midst of a barangay-wide brownout while my feet with alipunga is dipped in flood waters. Ahhh… na-teary eye naman ako.
5. Thank you for the music. Mahilig akong makinig ng music. May turn table kami noon pero dahil sa kalikutan ko e maraming nabaling plaka. Marami na rin akong napakaing tape sa cassette player namin at ibinabad na radio sa balde (para kako linisin). Music lover nga ako e. Nung college, halos mangayayat ako sa pagtitipid ng baon ko para makabili ng walkman. At nakabili naman ako bago pa ako ma-rehistro na malnourished sa school namin. Hanggang sa una kong work pagka-graduate at maikling pag-stay overseas e dala-dala ko ang walkman at ang partner nitong double A Eveready, di ako nauubusan. Last year lang nasira ang walkman ko courtesy of my 1-year old son. Ngayon alam ko na feeling ni Tatay noon.
6. Passing the torch. Nahihilig ang anak ko ngayon sa mga bagay na tumutunog at umiilaw. Ako din naman kaso bubugbugin ako ng asawa ko pag pumunta ako dun. Yung sa anak ko e mga laruang de baterya. Alam n’yo ang cute kasi pag hindi umaandar o tumutunog ang laruan niya, pupunta na yan sa cabinet kung saan nakalagay ang mga reserba namin ng Eveready batteries at pilit ipalalagay sa laruan niya. E, 1 year and 8 months old pa lang siya. Nung ganun ang edad ko, sabi ni nanay e ang kaya ko lang daw gawin e sumayaw sa ibabaw ng lamesa tuwing tanghali habang tumutugtog ang theme song ng Eat Bulaga.
I can actually make a longer list but I think, I don’t need to tell all my stories because I am pretty sure that most Filipinos have there own Eveready moments to tell. These stories will definitely echo to generations to come. Dahil ang Eveready, kasama sa pagbuo ng isang laging handang Pilipinas.
