Facts you need to know about "Game of Thrones".

1.The average episode costs HBO $6 million to make.

Game of Thrones is one of most expensive shows on TV. It costs three times as much to make an episode of GoT as it does to make an episode of The Big Bang Theory. (However, it is still costs $1 million less than it did to make any episode on the final season of Friends).

Some GoT episodes cost even more than $6 million to make. Season 2's action-packed "Blackwater" skated in with a reported price tag of $8 million. 

2. It is filmed in three continents and six countries.

To date, producers have traveled to the United States, Croatia, Morocco, Malta, Iceland and Northern Ireland for filming, with locations often overlapping in order to meet deadlines. Rumor has it GoT will add Spain to that list for Season 5.

3. Northern Ireland says "Game of Thrones" has brought more than $100 million to their economy.

The Northern Irish home base of Game of Thrones isn't the only location to benefit from the massive production. The ancient Moroccan city of Ouarzazate is said to have had a 100% increase in bookings after becoming the face of Yunkai and Pentos.

4. George R.R. Martin already told Benioff and Weis the ending of Game of Thrones.

Benioff and Weiss say they have the "broad strokes" of what Martin plans to do with the book series ending, but none of the specifics. Martin hopes he'll be able to finish the books before the show ends.

5. The show almost didn't make it to air because the original pilot was so bad.

In the original pilot, Jennifer Ehle (Pride & Prejudice) played Catelyn Stark and newcomer Tamzin Merchant starred as Daenerys Targaryen. Producers decided to reshoot the entire pilot with five roles recast, including Michelle Fairley and Emilia Clarke stepping in for Catelyn and Daenerys.

Tamzin Merchant

6. Emilia Clarke's Daenerys has become so popular, 146 baby girls were named Khaleesi in 2013.

It seems the recast was the right choice. The made-up name Daenerys didn't exist outside of Martin's novel before the HBO show aired. Parents, however, have not been unified in the name's pronunciation. It should be pronounced KHAH-LEY-SEE not KHAH-LEE-SEE.

7. More than two feet of human hair is used to make each of the show's Emmy-nominated wigs.

Kevin Alexander, one of Game of Thrones' hair designers, says that each piece can cost up to $7,000.

8.Two languages, Dothraki and Valyrian, were created for the television show from only a few words.

In the books, Martin only provided a few examples of the foreign tongues spoken on Game of Thrones. So the show's producers enlisted linguist David J. Peterson, founder of the Language Creation Society, to develop Dothraki and Valyrian into full, grammatical languages that the show's actors could actually speak.

Despite having created the 4,000-word Dothraki dictionary, Peterson says fanboys still try to correct him on his pronunciation.

9.Direwolves are real.

They've just been dead for millennia. The ancient breed is said to have been 25% larger than today's grey wolf. To recreate the beasts, the show uses Northern Inuit dogs that are digitally enlarged by visual effects specialists.

10. Hodor is gay!!

Kristian Nairn, the Irish actor who plays Bran Stark's hulking escort, came out earlier this year, making him the first openly gay actor of the show's 100-plus member cast.

#WhenIWasNewInKpop

1. I only knew and like SHINee 2. "Is this the reality you guys wanted?" 3. The best fanfics were TVXQ's 4. There were no fame-whores and annoying self-proclaimed 'fandom expert' 5. I would wait for live broadcasts of music programs when SHINee were promoting despite the crappy internet connection 6. I can't tell who's who in SJ and SNSD 7. It was very rare to have an idol group to visit the country for an event or showcase or concert (now, the'yre everywhere. ahem, B1A4 today, ahem CNBlue soon, ahem, KCon)

HELL WEEK IS FINALLY OVER!

Yes! We can now rest our minds from those deathifying exams that we took.

We just went to Angel’s footlong-an and obviously we ate footlong plus french fries, siomai, gulaman and shake. It’s been a while since the last time we visit and ate in that place. We noticed that they are now offering some new snacks like siomai, shake, and gulaman that’s why some of us tried those.

Only I can say is that medyo nagsisisi ako na tinry ko yung Mango Carabao Shake nila, though yung mango carabao shake itself masarap naman kaso they added sprinkles in it which is not bagay talaga dun sa taste ng shake kasi it also adds sweetness doon sa shake. So for me their shake is a big no no!! Also their siomai is a big no no for me because it’s very tiny!😛

Totality, we had so much fun this day though we’re incomplete…

START OF EVERYTHING

I can say that our circle of friendship is different above all the others.  We are not like the usual “tropahan”. We also have our own kind of trip and own kind of personality as well but inspite of these indifferences, nag-CLICK kami.

We are like the “Jack of All Trades”, “Eat All You Can Resto”, etc. Why? Kasi LAHAT ng hahanapin mo, nasa amin na! :)) Beauty, brains, talents and AWESOME personalities. Voila! Just name it and you can have it!

Well, we were originally 7 including Gianne, Krisela, Berna, Anj, Ezra, Izza and ME but due to extreme typhoon, joke! We became 5 coz the other 2 have their own family na. Joke ulit! HAHAHA! (baka magalit sila saken ><) Kidding aside, they have their own businesses na but still, we consider them as part ng GIRLFRIENDS even though they can’t hang out with us a lot.

Atm, we are 6 na including Mae who’s the younger sister of Berna. :) 

Anyways, there are a lot of things na super napapagkasunduan namin and I can say that ang “pinaka” is WE REALLY LOVE TO TAKE PICTURES. I think, it’s a girl thing naman na ano? Vanity at its finest. 

                 We ended up making this blog so that we can share our weird ideas, interests, extraordinary experiences, and our special and happiest moments with you guys. ♥

It's more fun in Laguna!

There are places yet to be discovered. ‘Wag ka nang lumayo pa, when ‘fun’ is right next to you. We have a lot of must-see places in our local provinces. If you want to travel far, why not start from where you’re from? Trust me, it’s really fun in the Philippines.

We travelled to four towns in Laguna for our Lakbay-Aral for History 101. Who knew, it turned out fun…and tiring.

 We visited churches in Pila and Pakil. We had a glimpse of their histories and of course had a tour around it. 

Since it's near the San Antonio de Padua Parish Church (still in Pila, Laguna), we visited some familiar places. And this one is from Be Careful with My Heart, the Chibugan.

Also, we visited this awesome house from KathNiel's Must Be Love Movie. It's really cool and I would definitely want a house like this. The ambiance is very relaxing.

Then we toured a bit more, joined Zumba (haha) and took some pictures.

St. Peter of Alcantara Parish Church in Pakil, Laguna

It was where the Our Lady of Turumba is located, and on Sept. 14, they'll celebrate the Turumba Festival.

We also went to Underground Cemetery in Nagcarlan. At first, medyo nakakatakot, but just remember to offer some prayers.

We were lucky because they're having a Festal in Liliw, Laguna. There are a lot of cute and affordable slippers.

The resulting looped knots, known as Brunnian links, can be assembled on the loom into bracelets and other shapes. The Rainbow Loom kit includes a pegboard, a rainbow loom hook, 24 special C-shaped clips, and 600 small rubber bands in assorted colors.
