Cover Versions

Among those who sing cover songs in YouTube, there is one we specifically love: Maddie Jane.

With today’s technology, it is easy to listen to songs we wouldn’t have access to years ago. In fact, upcoming bands and singers get easily recognized through the various means that people can listen to them. It is also easier to access their musical creations through music cd duplication.

To my aspiring little guitarist, I hope she also gets her break with the fickle-minded audience someday 🙂

Reebok ActiveVibe

I got a new pair of Reebok ActiveVibe rubber shoes last year at the Reebok Store in TriNoma. 25% off was just the right motivation to finally convince me to get an upgrade.

Reebok ActiveVibe

The hubby heaved a sign of relief when I finally chose a new pair: Pink and Gray Reebok ActiveVibe.  Why? I’m finally retiring that old pair that I’ve bashed, abused and used till it was pathetic to look at 😀

Reebok ActiveVibe

I love how it fits my feet and how comfortable it feels when I walk. I haven’t tried running in these yet, as if I run. So there goes the clue as to how I have been keeping fit. Not!

This pair was worth every penny, I must say and that’s coming from a penny-pinching mom 😀

And for those who know me well, they know for sure I am not fond of fuchsia pink but this one is an exception because it goes well with gray.

Now to plan on what to do to put this to good use 😉

Price after 25% markdown: Php2, 696. 25
