For someone who is into DIYs, you probably know how versatile a cardboard could be. If you have a lot of it in your storage, might as well make use of it and earn from it.
Apart from being a storage for your things, cardboards are also of great alternative to plastics. Which is a perfect way to protect our common home.
However, much more than the aforementioned, cardboard could also be used in sculptures.
This has been proven by the 29-year old Japanese artist Monami Ohno who have turned a plain cardboard to something beautiful.

To what started as her homework 10 years ago, Ohno has turned her college assignment to a full-time gig. She has her works displayed in galleries across Japan. Not to mention, art galleries abroad.
Her artworks scream pop-culture which would allow those who will look closely to be more amazed with its details.
“When I first tried folding the paper, gluing, and putting them together, the people around me praised me, saying things like ‘Wow, you can make this’,” Ohno said. “That made me so happy that I have continued doing this until now.”
Her process is not unusual. Just like the others, she starts with sketching, cutting, and molding it using water and glue.
“I make the things I would really like to decorate my house with,” she said.

To what were only meant to decorate her humble abode, these turned out to be commissioned works. Every piece sells anywhere between US$909 (¥100,000) and US$13,640 (¥1.5 million), depending on size and design complexity.
Much more than its beauty, a message for the environment is also lying in every artwork.
“Eventually if it makes that point, it would be nice if people can see my work, which is made out of cardboard and recycled materials rather than plastics, and realize that there are these kinds of people who are involved in recycling.”
Lapu-Lapu City is no doubt a large economic hub in Cebu province. The city, part of Mactan Island, is a fast-growing city with plenty of economic opportunities. Not only is it home to world-class resorts and beaches, it’s also a hotspot for export processing, manufacturing, and plenty of residential spaces.
As of the 2020 census, it has a population of nearly 500,000 people. Additionally, Lapu-Lapu City is closely packed with a population density of 8,600 persons per square-kilometer. Neighboring Cebu City has only 3,061/km2.
With all this said, Lapu-Lapu City is a city that is always growing and developing. One of the biggest developments to date is the 128-hectare Lapu-Lapu City Socialized Housing and Urban Development Project in Barangay Canjulao.
This ₱3.7 billion project is aimed to create a “city” within the city. It is envisioned to be a socialized housing project integrated with industrial and commercial sections. This project is a joint venture of the city government and Premium Megastructures Inc. (PMI).

Lapu-Lapu City Mayor Junard Chan and PMI president Francis Lloyd Chua signed the agreement at the Liberty Shrine in Brgy. Mactan last June 2021. It was declared that the impressive development of 128 hectares of land in Barangay Canjulao will be at no cost to the city.
The groundbreaking ceremony took place shortly after the signing of the agreement.

Mayor Chan explained that 25 out of the 128 hectares of land will be allocated for the socialized housing, while the rest of the area will be used for industrial and commercial ventures. All in all, the project will further boost economy and will benefit 3,000 residents.
This project is a realization of a City Council resolution passed in May 2021, which authorized Mayor Chan to enter into an agreement with PMI.
This City Council resolution states that on March 26, 2003, former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo issued Proclamation No. 346. Within the proclamation, she reserved a 25.24-hectare parcel of land in Canjulao for urban development and socialized housing site purposes.

Now, this project is envisioned to become a ‘little Singapore’, and is estimated to be completed in the next two years.

With busy schedules and movement restrictions in place again, the importance of having a trusted delivery service that can get things done is more evident than ever. Lalamove remains to be the reliable partner for long-distance and last-minute deliveries, expanding its coverage to the cities of Danao in the north and Carcar in the south, to reach and deliver possibilities to more people in Cebu.
Five Cebuanos share their Lalamove experiences and how the delivery platform helped with urgent and last-minute needs:
Stress-free and convenient parcel delivery to friends

When Miss Universe Philippines 2021 candidate representing the Cebu Province, Steffi Aberasturi, who is from Liloan, Cebu, needed a dress and pair of shoes for her pageant preparations, she tapped Lalamove to have the items delivered securely to her home. Lalamove’s professional riders are trained to handle delicate items, may it be food or outfits fit for a queen.

Lalamove’s professional riders are trained to handle delicate items, may it be food or outfits fit for a queen.
For local band Wonggoys, Lalamove was a lifesaver when they forgot to bring one of their guitars to their recording studio in uptown Cebu. They simply booked Lalamove to deliver their much-needed instruments safely, all in a jiffy. The delivery went off without a hitch with Lalamove’s vehicles ready to deliver large and heavy items like musical instruments.

As a reliable business partner, Lalamove provides instant delivery and serves as a go-between for local businesses, their partners, and customers.
Digital creator Clare Inso used Lalamove’s Queuing Service to get a replacement of the duvet covers she just purchased in Cebu City.

With the Queuing Service, riders line up and complete a delivery or payment service in any store of choice.

Bantayan Island is a paradise as it has proven so many times by having the most beautiful beaches, perfect escape spots and mouthwatering seafood.
But did you know that there is a delicacy that is only found here in the island and nowhere else?
It is familiar and famous to every Bantayanon in all its three municipalities but outside the island people see this food as an alien with its odd-looking shape and suspicious origin.
Everyone, let me introduce you to “Taguangkan”, it comes from the word tágù and anak which is roughly translated as womb, especially of animals. They are from the chicken’s womb/ovary where the egg is formed.

It is grilled with the chicken large intestine wrapped and twisted in a stick with big a round mass in the inside as its top. The round mass is actually undeveloped egg/s of the hen. It may look weird and strange at first but once tasted, it actually tastes like normal, unsalted grilled eggs.
Bantayan island has lots of poultry farms and supplies a huge number of egg and chicken meat locally and in nearby islands including Cebu which is why this is abundant in the area.

The island has always been a bit separated from the fast pace of the neighboring cities and have it as a common practice to make use of anything and everything. A habit of a no “wasted” policy is also practiced in our food as well. Cooking fish bones and almost everything you’ll find in the sea and even in poultry, as long as it can be eaten, there will be no part left behind.
Your trip to Bantayan will never be complete unless you’ve tasted this one-of-a-kind delicacy. A little note though, the outer part is a little bit on the hard side so chew carefully. A protein boost like no other is what you need after a whole day of swimming and island wandering.
With the boom of K-Pop and K-Drama in the Philippines, South Korea seems like just a nearby neighbor now.
But did you know that your favorite oppas, noonas, and stans see Cebu as one of their go-to vacation spots in the Philippines?
Yes, Korean actors and singers have regularly visited our country for holidays. Some of the times we were made aware of their arrival but often we would just be surprised to see uploaded photos or statements and videos of them talking about how they enjoyed their trips.
With Cebu having almost every tourist attraction, you seek just a few minutes/hours away from each other, it’s no wonder they chose it. The island also has the best beaches, resorts, water activities, and nature adventures which is what Koreans tend to enjoy during their vacations.
We have here a list of Korean celebrities who have visited Cebu and what they did just to casually inform you on where to hangout after the pandemic to have that unexpected but totally planned meet with your idols.
1. Park Hyung-sik

Before starting his military service last June 2019, Park Hyungsik had a fan meeting at the Mall of Asia Arena and then proceeded to spent 3 days in Cebu for a holiday. He was known for his role in “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon”. He was here for 3 days as posted by Easy Dive Resort in Cebu. His 3 days full of activities like diving and open ocean swimming.
Hyungsik also uploaded photos of his diving adventure in his personal Instagram and even quoted one with “A place like heaven for me” in Korean.
2. Park Bo-Gum

In 2016, he was here in Cebu with some of his “Love in the Moonlight” castmates for a reward vacation to celebrate the success of their series which ranked first among Korean dramas in a list by the Korea Institute of Corporate Reputation.
He even posed together with Kwak Dong-Yeon where they sat on the edge of a boat in the sea. They enjoyed Cebu for five long days. Bo-Gum even mentioned that snorkeling in Cebu remains in his memory after years of his last visit.
3. Lee Min Ho
Photo from koreaboo.com website
He has been to the Philippines 5 times so it’s no wonder that he has explored Cebu as well.
We’ve known and loved him for his portrayal of Gu Jun Pyo in “Boys Over Flowers” and every drama he has been a part of since then.
He was in SM Seaside City Cebu wearing an “ANNYEONG Cebuanos,” orange T-shirt to promote Bench. According to him, he will never get tired of coming to the Philippines and that it’s his first time in Cebu and then wondered to himself why it took so long for him to make his way down here.
He might have took a short vacation after that or came back to Cebu as there are pictures of him lying on a boat and of diving beaches in Cebu.
4. Cha Eun-Woo, Im Soo-Hyang & Kwak Dong-Yeon

These three and some of the cast of “My ID is Gangnam beauty” including Jo Woo-Ri, Min Do-Hee, Park Yoo-Na, Jung Seung-Hye, Kim Do-Yeon and Lee Tae-Sun came to cebu as a reward vacation to celebrate the success of their series. As it was a group vacation, they had fun at the beautiful beaches and resorts.
“It’s Okay to not be Okay” and “Vincenzo” star Kwak Dong-yeon have also visited Cebu twice, both as a celebratory vacation with his co-stars in “Love in the Moonlight” and here with “My ID is Gangnam Beauty”. Together with Kim Do-Yeon and Lee Tae-Sun, they took a stroll in Ayala Mall grounds wearing white shirts that says Cebu.
5. Taemin & Kai w/ The Padding Squad

Two of the most recognizable names of kpop idols were in Cebu together. SHINee’s baby Taemin and Exo’s Kai came to Cebu with their famous group of Kpop friends called “The padding squad” in 2019.
The group is made up of Wanna One’s Ha Sungwoon, VIXX’s Ravi, SHINee’s Taemin EXO’s Kai, and HOTSHOT’s Timoteo.
They made the best of their trip by trying out all the marine activities and lounging about on the beach. They were seen going snorkeling, diving, cliff-diving and even canyoneering in Kawasan Falls.
Kai also explored the cultural side of Cebu by visiting Fort San Pedro, Magellans Cross, generally the area in Cebu port where he could have also seen a lot of historical churches as well.

Camping is a fun activity to do with your friends and family; going to a place surrounded by nature sounds like a fun adventure to have!
However, some do not like the annoyances that camping offers. If you are not prepared or if the area is not that good, you can get mosquito bites, your tent might get hot and sweaty, etc.
Thankfully, EVO Nature Camp can give you an upgraded version of the activity, called “glamping”! Glamping is short for glamourous camping, and it really is glamourous because of the luxuries offered. The tent they offer has air conditioning, a comfy bed, comfy slippers, sofas, and more.

I know that hotdog in a bun is your go-to snack but hold that thought as they might not be that worth it. The seemingly harmless hotdog in a bun takes a staggering 36 minutes of your life. That is more than half an hour off your life.
A new study by the University of Michigan published in the Nature Food journal have clearly listed this one on the ‘Food that takes healthy Life’ list. Luckily, the study also noted that there are other food that can make you gain additional minutes to your life to balance it out.
There were 5,800 foods evaluated by the researchers. Each food composition was analyzed according to their net benefits and impacts.
Health Nutritional Index with nutritionist Victor Fulgoni III
The information was then made into a guide together with Global Burden of Disease study as basis. It is a study where disease mortality and morbidity are associated with a single food choice of an individual.
The analysis was turned into minutes of life lost or gained per serving size of each food item consumed therefore giving birth to the Health Nutritional Index.
Food that takes Healthy Life
1. Chicken Wings 85g – 3.3 mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Brian Chan
Unli chicken wings restaurants are practically waving in all corners but you might want to rethink a weekly binge eating. I think we are already aware that too much of this is never good due to its sodium content and harmful trans fatty acids. Just 85g loses 3.3 mins, how much more is an unlimited set.
2. Beef Hotdog with a Bun- 36 mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Yuheng Chen
As I have mentioned earlier, a light snack like this can lessen your healthy life dramatically. This is largely due to the detrimental effect of processed meat.
3. Pizza 1 serving- 7mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Ivan Torres
A slice will never be enough and it already takes 7 minutes due to its high sodium content and the use of processed meats. Having it on a regular basis can also increase your risk of heart disease.
4. Soda 1 can- 12mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Mahbod Akhzami
Higher in life minutes loss than pizza, soda adds excessive amounts of added sugar and unnecessary calories. I know it quenches your thirst but it has no essential nutrients, no vitamins, no minerals, and no fiber.
5. Double cheeseburger- 8mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Amirali Mirhashemian
Burgers may have high-sodium content and a double one only makes it worse. High sodium can lead to high blood pressure and an increased risk for heart disease, stroke and kidney disease.
6. Bacon -6 mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Casey DeViese
Bacon is probably one of the most loved breakfast meals but we have to control our intake of this as well. Another processed meat and bad cholesterol are waving.
Food that adds Healthy Life
1. Nuts 30g- 25 mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Jenn Kosar
A very good news to all nut-lovers. Eating this serving of nuts and seeds yields 25 minutes of gained healthy life, which is an increase in good-quality and disease-free life expectancy according to the research.
2. Peanut butter jelly Sandwich 1 serving- 33mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Tyler Nix
As most of our breakfast are in the minutes of life lost list, this one is a breather. The nut content of PB&J has saved this meal to be in this list. To more PB&Js with you mate.
3. Baked salmon (13.5 minutes)
Photo from unsplash.com by Caroline Attwood
This fish meal is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, a great source of protein and it is high in B vitamins. Wrapped all these in one and you’ve got 13.5 minutes of a healthy life gained.
4. Banana (13.5 minutes)
Photo from unsplash.com by Eiliv-Sonas Aceron
In case you didn’t know, bananas contain happy hormones and that in itself is an additional to your healthy life. Aside from that it is also rich in Potassium for your heart health and it even aids digestion.
5. Tomatoes (3.8 minutes)
Photo from unsplash.com by Vince Lee
This fruit contains a major dietary source of the antioxidant lycopene, which has been linked to many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. It also supplies vitamin A, which supports immunity, vision, and skin health. A tomato a day will definitely keep you healthy.
6. Avocado (2.8 mins
Photo from unsplash.com by Louis Hansel
The all-powerful avocado and the darling of social media. Not only are they delicious, high nutrient value and is added to various dishes due to its good flavor and rich texture, Avocados do not contain any cholesterol or sodium and are low in saturated fat. It helps you protect against Alzheimer’s disease and memory loss by giving you a good dose of vitamin E.
What you eat makes you, so keep healthy and eat healthy everyone.
