Shakey's Delivery Philippines -- I found a really informative site with their menu and prices

See how easily you can get Shakeys Delivery in the Philippines

I was craving some pizza the other day and figured I should have some delivered to my house. But the problem was I didn't know all the food available in their menu and what kind of prices they offer. At the time I didn't even know what number to dial in order to have Shakey's pizza delivered. And so I found the Shakeys Delivery Philippines website from Google.

In this site you will be able to find their menu that has all their pizzas from thin crust to thick crust. They always have new specialty recipes for pizza and calling for delivery without knowing all their new pizza recipes will really make you not be able to get your money's worth. It is one thing to just ask the delivery operator and another to actually see a photo of what you will be getting and recommendations from someone who has actually tried it out firsthand.

The author recommended that I try out their Belly Buster pizza recipe. It surely made my Shakey's Delivery very worth it. Shakey's in the Philippines is truly very unique and it is always a delight to have their food delivered and eaten at the comfort of your home. I really enjoyed the delivery and so did my family and friends. With anything it is better to be informed about the different prices and offers before ordering or buying.

Check out the Shakey's menu now and try it out. Their pizza is now just a phone call away. You will be eating their pizza in no time. But if you don't have a phone or you find that a hassle then there is a more convenient way of ordering for you and that is Online Delivery Philippines that has all the information about restaurants and fast food that offer online delivery.

KFC Delivery Philippines

Information about KFC delivery in the Philippines

There are a lot of helpful information in the Blog of Harry Santos including a lot of reviews about different places to go to in the Philippines. He has one blog post where he talks about the KFC delivery in the Philippines with a lot of information such as their delivery number. It is really convenient to have these kind of information especially if you are just at home and you want to get some delicious recipes from the KFC menu in the Philippines.

He talked about how he was bored and a bit sickly one day and decided to get some KFC. But because it was raining outside he got lazy to go all the way to KFC and just get the food delivered. He talks about what kind of things to expect like what is the minimum price, delivery charges, and many other things like how long it will take for the KFC delivery to come and what effects it will have on the quality of the KFC chicken or other things. These are really very helpful and his recommendations are truly useful. It's a good thing I saw his site and read his article before getting KFC delivered because it helped me learn many things.

I found his blog in google. There are more stuff there and not just all about KFC and their deliveries. The site also contains his portfolio that has his works on photography, video editing, film-making, music production, and even writings and political commentaries. There are also links to his other sites like his YouTube that contains a lot of entertaining things. All in all, I'm just glad I saw his article about KFC delivery Philippines.

LITFILI *: Genre Expectations vs Social Commentary

Chick Lit is western, modern, and very feminist-oriented. There are many expectations from this genre. Surely it would contain fashion and sex related topics. Surely it would contain some sort of contemporary love story. But how about on the Social Commentary part? Chick Lit deems the upper-class western way of life as something quite desirable. Like those girls in Sex and the City who party every night and fuck around and have interesting and non-boring jobs.



It's seemingly promoting this form of desirable social status. And why is it desirable? Because next to being rock stars or movie stars, the next common dream would be to be in the advertising industry, or public relations, or fashion, or publishing. WHY? because these things are the closest to art that you can get without the risk of starving to death or being a bum. And we all want to be closer to art, for this is the only thing that keeps us from feeling that we are part of a machine or that our lives are full of meaningless and alienating processes.

So regardless of my preference for Chick Lit(I'm not very fond of it), as far as I'm concerned, writers can write whatever the hell they want to write and readers should, with caution of course, read whatever they want to read.

Now with crime fiction, I'm also not very fond of it. I do find forensics very interesting, but not fiction about it, I guess. CSI has very little continuity, and I guess the same goes for most crime fiction, because it would always be the same in the end: either you solve it which makes it cliche or you don't solve it and make your story annoying.

So which is more important? Genre expectations or social commentary? I think we shouldn't really think too much about it. Genre expectations are important but if we think too much about it then it would hinder the evolution of literature, reducing them to merely categorized objects and preventing them from transcending literary paradigms. The more we think of social commentary the more we'll be pulled away from fiction. I mean, it is important for a literary piece to have social commentary, but we also shouldn't forget that fiction is also some sort of imagination commentary(I'm not really sure what I mean by that).

For me, reading literature is like looking at a painting. we'll never really know what the writers really want to portray or express. all we'll ever have are speculations based on our own interpretations. Unless of course you really really want to, cause then you could interview the writer or go to his/her seminars.

LITFILI *: Generations

Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them..." Genisis 19:6-8 (NIV)

Here, Lot(Nephew of Abraham) offers his two virgin daughters to every man in the City of Sodom. Of course this verse is open to interpretation. Go on and look it up if you want.



It's like how the father in Generations allowed her daughter to be raped by those army people, all for his own self-interest.

And now the daughter, near the last part, kills his father. The question is why didn't he just let his father rot in jail? She would never have been raped plus she wouldn't have had to kill her father. I don't really know the answer either. There must be some sort of underlying symbolism or something.

In my opinion, women can really use seduction to get almost whatever they want, specially if they're considered desirable by society's standards.

Perhaps she killed her father because she symbolized a new generation of women who were willing to take up radical means in order to achieve justice?

Ninotchka Rosca is a feminist, so I suppose that feminism would naturally be reflected in her literature.

LITFILI *: Fairy Tales

Some people say that Ring Around the Rosie is actually about the Bubonic plague of 1665. Anyway, in Invader Zim season 1 episode 8, Dark Harvest, Zim steals his schoolmates' organs in order to fool the school nurse that he is a human being. Reminds me of this organ stealer man everyone's been talking about.



I think fairy tales are very culture oriented and have folklore ties. Fairy tales also have a lot of sub-genres, i mean, this is a very broad topic. There are fairy tales for children while there are some that are dark and suited for a more mature audience.

I've been given a chance to really observe the local TV shows since there is no cable in my schooldays home. And so I noticed that we have a lot of fairy tale soap operas. Basically, Angel Locsin can trasnform into a wolf, Richard Gutierrez can trasnform into a snake(he used to be a "mulawin"; a hawk-man of some sort), and now Marimar is going to become a mermaid or something. Yea, those things are fairy tales, I suppose. I guess that kind of thing sells to the masses, since they really saturate prime time with it.

It gives us hope, I guess, fairy tales. Hope that there will be a hero in our lives, or that our ordinary and mundane lives can somehow save the world or something. But it's not really as pathetic as it sounds. All of us have fairy tales in our heads. They might be a bit modern though. Like animals texting or goblins popping vicodin or a rock vocalist peter pan. I'm sure most of us watch Heroes. Fairy tales evolve with society and helps keep the future such an interesting place.

Oh, and I read in a friend's blog that Nick Joaquin didn't finish high school and he's like a National Artist or something. I'm not sure if this has already been discussed in class. But hey, that's Filipino Literature so there, I just wanted to share.

may you all have fun and enough rest during this holy week break thing.
