Yes, you read that right.

Photos and videos of matinee idol John Lloyd Cruz have been surfacing after being on
hiatus from the show business since 2017.

Cruz, one of the most bankable actors of the Philippine cinema and very effective
endorser once again proved that his fans are still waiting for his return. In a teaser
video, which lasted only for a few seconds and only shows the back shot of Cruz’s,
and posted in the Facebook page of the number one selling shawarma Turks a few
weeks ago had been viewed 3.2M times, shared almost 800 times and gained a
huge number of comments.

Without any clue in that teaser video, his fans already assumed that it was him in
the video. Actress Bea Alonzo on her Instagram also posted a screenshot of that
teaser video, which garnered almost a million likes.

This Monday morning Turks finally revealed in the 1-minute and 17 seconds
video of Cruz showing the actor walking through different destinations, which
somehow depicts Cruz’s sojourn.

The video is very simple, yet there’s drama the way it was created, and in a
very subtle shot, he stopped and took a bite of a Turks pita donner.

The rugged look of Cruz in the Turks video titled Ang Pagbabalik is way too
far from his guy-next-door image and a lot of people in the industry are asking
if this signals his return to the limelight. His fans are still wondering about the
life he’s been living since his hiatus.

According to Turks president Gem L. Zenarosa that during the course of his
talks with Cruz, they never talked anything about his showbiz career or plans.
He added that he got Mr. Cruz as the latest ambassador of Turks because of his
great confidence working with Cruz.

“I am really grateful that John Lloyd trusts our company, he is a brilliant and
very creative young man. Aside from acting we have discovered some of his
remarkable talents,” Zenarosa stressed.

The Ang Pagbabalik according to Zenarosa is actually about Turks Small Pita
Doner, which will be available again in all its branches.

“John Lloyd is the best endorser for this because like him, despite his absence
in the show business for a couple of years, the warmth and love of his fans for
him never dwindles. With our Small Pita Doner we believe that our customers
will be happy to know that it is back in our menu,” Zenarosa explained.

Just like Cruz who is seen to have a different image since he last appeared in
the big screen, a clear indication that the actor is recreating himself and exploring
different grounds, Turks is also doing the same thing to keep its customers excited
whenever they visit a branch.

In time for the release of Cruz's endorsement video, Turks also released to
the market its newest offering --- Turks Rice Bowl, which is a complete meal.
You can choose beef or chicken for your rice topping, and it is priced at P50.
The Small Pita Donner on the other hand, is priced at P35.

"To keep up with the demands of our customers, Turks continues to improve
our menu and offerings to satisfy the discriminating taste of our loyal patrons,"
Zenarosa stressed.

John Lloyd Cruz now joins the roster of endorsers of Turks such as Piolo and
Inigo Pascual.

For a long time, your garage has been nothing but a savior. It’s where everything you don’t have space for goes to and the death bed for all your junk. So, what do you do when the garage gets full and messy? A befitting rubbish removal, right?

But with so many areas to scour, as well as the numerous items to get rid of, cleaning out the garage can be a daunting task. So, if you want to do it fast and hassle-free, you’ll need to employ a practical strategy. Below are authentic measures to a swift and spectacular garage clean out.

Step 1: Take Everything Out

De-cluttering your cramped-up garage should be your first move. It enables you to realize what you’re working with and prepare for the next cause of action. So, depending on the weather, take everything out to an extra room or the driveway.

Step 2: Organize the Items

Come up with a criterion for selecting what stuff to keep. You can start by taking stock of everything you have, categorizing all of your items into for groups: retain, donate, sell, and trash. Only hang to the possessions that make you most happy. The rest?

Hawk them in a yard sale or donate to charity, except for any item that is useless or broken. Such things belong in a landfill or a recycling bin. Contact with professionals like Paul's Rubbish Removal if you want to dispose them organically. Make sure that you take care of things before going to the next step.

Step 3: Deep Clean Your Garage Space

It’s the most crucial part of any garage rubbish removal regimen. Ultimately, how neat and crisp your garage turns out, depends on how well you clean it. It’s advisable to start from top to bottom, but whatever style you choose, don’t forget to:

Remove grease and oil stains - You can do it using a wire scrub brush, dish soap and cat litter. Apply the litter first to absorb an excess liquid on the stain, then scrub with soap. If you can find kitty waste, cornmeal or sawdust will work fine too.
Wipe away mold - vinegar or bleach diluted with warm water will do.
Spruce up the walls - Employ a sponge mob for the garage partitions. Also, use epoxy and a sealant to deal with any cracks.
Clean the Garage Door - You can do it by brushing off the dust, hosing the door down, and finally wiping it with mild household detergent plus warm water.

Step 4: Straighten Out the Garage

Once your garage space is spic-and-span, it’s time to bring in your precious belongings. But this time, place everything in a harmonized manner so that you prevent clutter from building up again. Check out the following pointers on how to best layout your cleaned-up garage:

Invest in shelving units where all your frequently used items will go, for easy reach.
Utilize cabinets or closets for the less frequently used items.
Get a pegboard for hand tools like hacksaws and hammers.
Use wall hawks to hang equipment such as shovels and rakes.

Conclusion

Zoning, labeling, and arranging the items in your garage will ensure that clutter doesn’t crop up again. Still, you can always utilize the four steps mentioned above to undertake quick and painless rubbish removal from your garage. Don’t forget to plan for the disposal of your unwanted items before you start cleaning.

For a long time, your garage has been nothing but a savior. It’s where everything you don’t have space for goes to and the death bed for a...
