Take on Me: Microsoft Excel Version

a-ha's Take on Me is one of the most beloved singles of the 1980s. The turbocharged synthpop ballad was released by the Norwegian trio more than 30 years ago, but it still slaps. Sure, the video made the song a hit, but the track also has a wickedly catchy riff and it still sounds fresh even in today's pop music standards.

Take on Me has been redone by a diverse array of artists, including Weezer, Sara Bareilles, and Aqualung. But I think this is more interesting.

More Than Just Smiles and Sunsets

                  Ayala Museum is currently hosting "Amorsolo: Chroma" - a spectrum of brilliance you wouldn't want to miss. It is more than just a collection of paintings; it’s an experience. It’s a masterclass in light and color, a journey into the mind of a Filipino genius, and a fresh perspective on an artist many of us thought we knew. The first thing that you will notice you when you step into "Chroma" is… well, the chroma. While Amorsolo is famed for his mastery of light, this exhibition dives deeper into his entire color palette. It’s like entering a vibrant, living spectrum. Go check it!

It's Beautiful, But Also Could Explode

Ah, Taal Lake. Admirable, breathtaking, a perfect postcard of tranquility. And then you remember. Oh right, there's a volcano inside the lake, inside an island, inside another body of water. It's like an  Inception movie directed by mother nature, and frankly, I'm pretty sure she's just messing with us at this point.
