Bokura, Kakeyuku Sora e

A new original character is joining on Hayate the Combat Butler: Heaven is a Place on Earth. Her name is Ruka Suirenji and she was played by Haruka Yamazaki. Since she's new and she's an original character for the movie, we don't know anything about her unless the movie is showing in theaters this Saturday, August 27, 2011! Fact is, she's behind the opening theme song from the movie!

The opening theme song titled "Bokura, Kakeyuku Sora e" can now be yours on this very special maxi-single CD that once you have it, being prepared before the Hayate movie arrives! From this maxi-single CD, there's the opening theme song plus a very original music from Ruka Suirenji titled Forever Star. The other two are instrumental versions of these two.

Discover the real Ruka Suirenji if you can...

Ferrari FF

2012 Ferrari FF

The Ferrari FF sparks the revolution of the Prancing Horse because when you heard the word "FF", this is not a Front-Wheel Drive Ferrari. In Ferrari terminology, FF means "Ferrari Four" and this is the first Ferrari shooting brake and the first with the new All Wheel Drive technology, which is called 4RM.

In the past, Ferrari never created a 4WD car because most 4WD systems are too bulky for their Prancing Horses. To resolve it, Ferrari created a new ALL WHEEL DRIVE technology called 4RM. The new 4RM system provides FR dynamism in normal conditions, sending power to the front when slip is found. A new Power Transfer Unit (PTU) is a necessity to deliver torque straight from the crankshaft to the front. In other words, power is distributed between the left and right sides of the rear and front axle for superior grip unlike other 4WD sports cars. The 4RM system is light, compact, and it has a low center of gravity which makes them its strengths.

The Ferrari FF is powered with the new direct-injected 6.3L V12 engine that produces 660PS/8000rpm of power, 683NM/6000rpm of torque, 335km/h of top speed, and 0-100km/h in 3.7 seconds. It is armed with the seven-speed F1 dual-clutch gearbox for a shifting feel like a Formula One car. With the HELE (High Emotions, Low Emissions) System that provides idling stop, it has a CO2 emissions of 360 g/km, which is lower than other Ferraris and the fuel economy of the Ferrari FF is 6.5km/L. This car is all about keeping its eco-car promise because of the eco-friendly HELE System. As of that, the GDI V12 engine is Euro V compliant.

2012 Ferrari FF interior

Inside, the Ferrari FF is all about luxury in a new dimension. This car can seat up to four people and it provides an exceptional luggage compartment if you are taking a break. For an added bonus, there's even a rear-seat infortainment system with a premium audio system packed with Dolby Surround Sound. You wouldn't believe that people at the back will enjoy watching their DVDs while having fun driving the Ferrari FF. This can be the most generous offer for the brand's first AWD hatchback.

My comment:
The first 4WD hatchback from Ferrari, the FF, really throws the curve in the world of Grand Tourers, but for me, I think it needs a little bit of time to master the fundamentals of the new 4RM ALL WHEEL DRIVE system mounted on the Ferrari FF. This is the only Ferrari that can take you anywhere from tarmac, gravel, snow, sand, anywhere that no other supercars can.

Ferrari aims to build 800 FF models...but it sold out fast just like the Lamborghini Aventador. Can the Ferrari FF be worthy enough to take down a 4WD sports car which is the Nissan GT-R?!

Strange encounter...

Hi there! It's me again! Earlier, we went to the Seafood City Westfield Southcenter branch for some groceries...

Whoa, they're selling Monster Energy? Whoa, I'm not into those okay? Why most prefer this? Probably because of the Ken Block thing? Oh well...

Okay, back for some more...

Mmmm... My favorite...Century Tuna!

The Philippines' favorite sardines, Ligo Sardines. Laging Masarap for more than 50 years! Sarap Ligo!

Manny Pacquiao's vinegar of choice! Datu Puti! Ito ang champion! :D

Malaki, marami, masarap! Rebisco Crackers! I can see Michael V on the packaging!

The customer service...

The cashier...

C2 Green Tea! One of my favorites. I often drink these when I'm thirsty...

And this is it. I saw actor Joel Torre hanging out at the Seafood City Westfield Southcenter branch to promote a film titled "Amigo"

Apparently, Joel Torre's very busy on autographs! We got excited to see him in person ever since we saw him on 100 Days To Heaven.

Amigo is a film by Academy Award-nominated director John Sayles. Joel Torre played the role of Rafael, a village mayor caught in the murderous crossfire of the Philippine-American War. This movie also stars Chris Cooper, Garret Dillahunt, Dane DeHann, Rio Locsin, Ronnie Lazaro, Yul Vazquez, Bembol Roco, and DJ Qualis. It's a good movie! Watch it!

And now, we're taking a Jollibee break before we go...

That newly opened Daiso Japan store sells everything for 1.50 Dollars. I checked inside and wow, this thing sells household items and others!

...and we're going home!
