Fright Night at Nuvali NightSky Cinema

If I'm not mistaken, this is the third time that I've attended and enjoy a night of movies under the beautiful clear sky of NUVALI in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. This time, my experience is a bit different, because aside from spending the night with some former colleagues, well, what we had that night is something that scared the hell out me. Yes, just before the Halloween, I had a fright night at NUVALI NightSky Cinema.

Co-presented again by Sky Cable, this NightSky Cinema featured three thrilling and horroriffic movies that made everyone jump out of the cushion, covered their eyes and screamed at the top of their lungs. We had the  Zombieland, which is starred by Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, and Abigail Breslin; then followed by The Sixth Sense by M. Night Shyamalan, which stars Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment; and finally, the most scary movie that night, The Conjuring, which starts Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga.

This is the first time, if I remember it right, that Sky Cable and NUVALI offer the NightSky Cinema with such theme, I personally think that this a great idea to celebrate the approaching Halloween. But if you think that all of the stuff that we had there were all tricks, well, some movie-goers got to enjoy some treats from the games and food fair that this event hosted.

The Outdoors we call Camp N by NUVALI

Nowadays, we barely see kids or young adults having a great time basking under the sun and enjoying the wonders of the outdoors, which til all of them are having a hard time catching their breath, both because of running and laughing so hard.

Good thing, just two hours away from Manila lays a well-developed property which is thriving and evoliving - NUVALI. An Ayala Land Inc. development, NUVALI recently opened to the public its latest sports zone complete with activities set to challenge one's heart, mind and body - Camp N.

I was lucky to be at its opening day last April 26, together with a number of media personalities, who are excited as I was to try the amazing challenges that are put up for Camp N. This newest spot here in this lovely NUVALI community boast up with Obstacle Course, Aerial Walk and Rope Courses and Camping Ground that are purposely built to promote healthier and more balanced lifestyle.

That Romantic Spot at Eton City

Ever since that moment where I did the pre-nuptial photo shoot of my friend's best friend, I can't help myself but to see more aspiring romantic places that I think will look good in photos, most especially with those lovers clinging or holding hands while walking. And a few days back, I found another place again that I would love to be the back draft of my next masterpieces - and that place is in Eton City, Laguna.

Nestled at the very peaceful lot of Sta. Rosa, Laguna, Eton City is one of the budding commercial and residential area that is going head to head with one of the hottest tourist hangout places now, Nuvali.

I've been to Nuvali countless times, and seeing how many people flock to this place now, it is hard to find it that romantic now. Good thing, with its less crowd and mostly untouched man-made structure in its vicinity, Eton City offers a much more romantic breathing spot that I would love to see again.

Post-Valentine Date at Nuvali Night Sky Cinema

While some of you had a great time spending Valentine's Day with your special someone, I, for one, being single, had a great time spending my "post-Valentine's Day at the very relaxing and nature-ish place of NUVALI in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. Think of open sky, sunset, friends and good movie - isn't it a fun date, different from the ordinary dining out?

Last February 16, together with some of my blogger-friends, we were able to enjoy our "Valentine Independence" (single's way of celebrating Valentine's Day) on the grounds of Nuvali Field as we gather along with a number of single people, families, and yeah, still some lovers to the first ever Nuvali Night Sky Cinema.

A free-for-all cinema that features three of the world's best romantic movies, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Pretty in Pink and Like Crazy, everyone was treated to an afternoon and night of cool breeze, peaceful surrounding and a wonderful experience that I HOPE WILL HAPPEN AGAIN SOON!
