5 Lyrics from “Oh no I’m on Shopee again” that Every Online Shopper Can Definitely Relate To

 It’s the perfect song to play while shopping for your next budol haul at Shopee’s extended 12.12 Big Christmas Sale

Over the past two years, Pinoys fell in love with the ease and convenience of online shopping. Aside from providing a wide array of essentials, online shopping can also serve as a fun break from reality. Window shopping can be quite an addictive adventure, especially during big sales such as Shopee’s extended 12.12 Big Christmas Sale, since there are so many deals to enjoy!

With just a few taps on our phones, we can buy everything we want and need. Sometimes, however, we don’t have the budget to fund all our budol purchases. As much as we love to check out our whole cart this Payday sale, most of us know all too well the frustration of realizing we don’t have enough money to spare for all the items in our carts—a feeling up-and-coming artist geiko can also relate to. 

geiko, a local artist, started posting songs on Youtube in 2017. She recently released a new single titled “Oh no I’m on Shopee again.” The relatable lyrics and undeniably catchy tune will definitely be our go-to song to play while scrolling through Shopee. 

Here are 5 lyrics from “Oh no I’m on Shopee again” that every Shopee suki can relate to:

1. There are so many things I want to buy

But I'm broke, so I stare at my phone and cry 

It’s difficult to resist adding to cart after watching Shopee hauls and stumbling across Shopee budols online. But we can only dejectedly stare at the pile of items sitting in our carts, impatiently waiting until the next big sale. 

2. My mama tells me to buy only the things that I need

Who hasn’t gone on Shopee to buy one thing and ended up checking out five other items? It’s like falling down a fun rabbit hole filled with products from different categories and thousands of brands on Shopee Mall. geiko’s mom—and our own parents, for that matter—may be right, but we can’t miss the chance of buying cute stuff at such affordable prices. 

3. My ShopeePay balance is zero, sometimes even a piso

There’s no greater disappointment than when you realize you’ve used up all your money. After shopping sprees, our e-wallets are often left with little to zero balance. To help save on your purchases, use ShopeePay for even more perks, such as free shipping, cashback, and more.

4. Thank you to delivery person..

Come back again

Some items are still pending

With the number of times they’ve delivered your orders, you and your Shopee Xpress rider probably know each other well by now. We all get giddy with the excitement of finally receiving our parcels, but with all the amazing deals, we can’t help but check out again and again. Who knows, maybe you and your Shopee Xpress rider can become good friends after a few (more) deliveries!

5. But I also wanna give my loved ones lots of presents in 1 big box

Our carts aren’t just full of things we want for ourselves, but also of presents we want to give to people we love. With Christmas just around the corner, we all wish to show our friends and family how much we cherish them by showering them with gifts. At the 12.12 Big Christmas Sale, spoil your loved ones with gifts at affordable prices. Enjoy shopping with free shipping with no minimum spend, ₱1 Deals, and 10% off daily.

Stream “Oh no I’m on Shopee again” on geiko’s official YouTube and Spotify accounts. You can also watch the music video on Shopee’s official YouTube channel.

Enchanted Christmas at SM City Masinag

Life felt normal again this past weekend as I set foot to a charmed oasis of reds, greens and golds at the atrium of SM City Masinag as they launch their Christmas centerpiece, which is aptly named "Enchanted Christmas".

Giant embellishments of peonies, roses, Christmas balls adorn towering Christmas trees at the center of the display. Lighted butterflies swirl the trees, the rustic swings and the entire centerpiece. Tall lighted gazebos and entrance arch entice shoppers to take photos against this beautiful holiday indoor scenery. Poinsettias, gift boxes and huge bows are spread on the patches of greeneries at the centerpiece.

The launch highlights a ceremonial lighting ceremony with local officials led by Rizal Vice Governor Reynaldo San Juan, Jr. and officials from the City Government of Antipolo. They are joined by SM City Masinag Mall Manager Raymond Bonifacio. A dreamlike performance awaits guests at the ceremony from fairy ballerinas of Airdance Philippines and violinist Michaella Torres. 

“Our annual Christmas centerpiece here in SM City Masinag is always a stunning sight to behold, and this year’s Enchanted Christmas is no exception. Whenever our shoppers stop by our holiday display to take photos and smile, it makes our hearts flutter as we know we did a good job in making their visit meaningful and memorable for them,” said Raymond Bonifacio, Mall Manager of SM City Masinag. 

Starting November 12, SM City Masinag is again launching the Bears of Joy, an annual charity program of SM Supermalls wherein shoppers can also participate by buying a pair of Christmas Teddy Bears for P200 from the Bears of Joy booth. One of the two bears will be donated to a selected charity, while the donor can take the other one home. SM City Masinag will give the accumulated donated bears to a chosen charity.

BRIA Homes eyes stronger VisMin presence in its portfolio of residential developments

In the past, one prevailing socioeconomic myth held the idea that all roads led to bustling Metro Manila, where bountiful employment and business opportunities awaited ambitious and hardworking Filipinos.

Tiny as the Philippine archipelago is, Visayas and Mindanao used to be considered as trailing behind the National Capital Region in terms of progress and development. 

Fast-forward to the present times, nothing could be further from the truth. Business and industry have fast acknowledged the tremendous potential that VisMin offers, making it a much-coveted region for both government and private sector investments. With Visayas and Mindanao as hosts to some of the country’s most fascinating and culturally diverse places, the region is developing into a center for agro trade and world-class tourism, providing a plethora of employment opportunities to local Visayans, Mindanaoans and Filipino migrants who have set up roots in the South. 

The revelation of VisMin as a booming region is more than just a fantasy projection, as its growth over the last decade has been well-documented. According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), Mindanaoan regions topped the charts for national growth rates in 2019, with the Bangsamoro and Davao regions experiencing massive spikes in industry at 10.2 and 7.5 percent, respectively. 

Meanwhile, the Visayas has not lagged behind either. The region has consistently outperformed the national growth rates over the last few years. Western Visayas beat the 2019 national growth rate of 6.0% with its own regional growth rate of 6.4%. A year earlier, Central Visayas’ growth shot up to 7.6%, for the fourth highest growth rate in the country.

These statistics bear a clear and decisive message: a brighter future is unfolding for VisMin’s longtime residents. Even now,  Visayans and Mindanaoans are becoming increasingly confident about sticking close to home to pursue their dreams or to raise their families. It is an aspiration shared by an increasing number of Overseas Filipino Workers who are happily considering coming home to the towns and cities of their birth, earnest about giving their families a better life without the need to uproot themselves.

With such buoyant prospects for VisMin, BRIA Homes, one of the country’s top developers of best-value housing, has bolstered its presence in these regions, building more BRIA communities to meet the need for safe and secure dwellings of prospective residents and  for OFWs to invest in. 

In the immediate future, expect BRIA Homes to capitalize on the expeditious growth that the VisMin Region has witnessed in the last decade. The award-winning property developer is especially noting the Department of Tourism (DOT)’s plans for ‘crisis-proofing’ tourism in the Western Visayas Region, a concept devised by the DOT together with environmental planners and local government units.  

Apart from this, VisMin’s economic prosperity is set to be spurred by the national government’s flagship infrastructure program called Build Build Build. Projects like the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway, Panglao-Tagbilaran City Offshore Connector Bridge, and Candoni-Gatuslao-Basay Road will link key cities in the region, ostensibly aiming to boost the growth of business and trade.

Taking all this into account, things are looking up for VisMin and, by extension, for BRIA Homes, which, to date, has launched a number of developments in the South, with communities flourishing in Samar, Leyte, Misamis Oriental, Negros Occidental, Bukidnon, Davao del Norte and Sur, and North and South Cotabato. 

BRIA believes that property seekers that invest now in housing projects in rapidly developing regions like VisMin will be handsomely rewarded with a considerable return on their real estate assets. And Filipinos who buy a BRIA Home can look forward to a serene and comfortable life in a warm and welcoming community, surrounded by lush green spaces and family-friendly amenities, and secured by perimeter walls, guarded gates, and 24/7 CCTV coverage.

Meantime, BRIA invites all prospective homebuyers in the Visayas and Mindanao region to immerse themselves in the BRIA 360 Virtual Tours, which is readily available via bria.com.ph. The tours will give them a glimpse of their future home from any place they may be. Inquiries may also be done through the website, as well as through the official BRIA Facebook page,  facebook.com/BriaHomesIncOfficial. 

Future residents and homeowners can also rely on safe and convenient transactions through BRIA’s various bank partners like Maybank, BDO, Unionbank, PNB, Security Bank, RCBC, and Metrobank. E-wallet services like GCash, Paymaya, and All Easy are likewise on hand.
