GIMIKERO/A!

Gumimik na ba kayo? Hindi ung gimik na pupunta sa bar/club ah, kundi yung gimik na ginagawa ng mga artista para sila ay mapansin.

Unang una sa listahan ay si..

Madam Auring

Sumunod naman si..

Mystica

May mas gigimik pa ba dito?

Diba? Nakuha pang magsama ng 2 to!

Recently, naGIMBAL na naman ang showbiz (pati ako!!!) sa pinaka-kacheapang gimik ng taon!

JIMBOY SALAZAR
now known as
JIMGIRL SALAZAR

Bago ko pag-usapan ang pagiging Jimgirl nya, tayo'y magbalik sa mga "attempts" nya para mapansin.

#1. Pag-iibigang MAHAL at JIMBOY.

In fairness, ginamit niya ang isang "mas" sikat sa kanyang artista. ANG TANONG: May naniwala ba?

#2. Patay na si Jimboy text.

Sinong ibang tao ang magtetext maliban sa kanya na patay na siya? At anong mapapala ng ibang tao dun? Sayang sa load. In short, si Jimboy lang din ang nagpakalat nyan.

#3. Jimgirl Salazar

Sa The Buzz siya nagreveal ng kanyang "bagong" katauhan. Diba sosyal? Sa #1 Showbiz Oriented Talk Show pa siya talaga nag-"out". Wala akong pakilam kung bading talaga si Jimboy. Pero, halatang nagpapanggap eh. Halatang nag-papaka-"effem" ma bakla. Napakitid ng utak niya sa pagiging isang bakla. Kayo na bahalang humusga pag napanuod nyo ang video na ito. Nagsususmigaw na GIMIK at kacheapan. Dinamay pa si BB. At nahawa lang daw siya ng pagiging bading nya. TIGILAN AKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8hBFaVOrKU

sabi ko nga sa facebook post ko.. "kung ndi lang nakakabastos, nagwalk-out na si siguro si Tito Boy.. malalagay na niya ito sa kanyang "worst interview" ever.. sayang wala yung mahiwagang salamin ni Tito Boy.. sasabihin niya siguro, "Nasaharap mo ang mahiwagang salamin, ngayon hintayin mong ihampas ko sa ulo mo to ng matauhan ka sa ka-cheapan mo!""

I'm FAT

Sad to say, that's me. Ang taba ko na! Mataba na nga ako, nagsuot pa ako ng horizontal stripes na damit. Hahaha. Dati when people ask me kung bakit ako tumataba, I always answer them, "It's a sign of wealth." Well, totoo naman, pero natatabaan na ako sa sarili ko.

This is my 190th post, and yes, my official weigh in minutes before I wrote this post is 190! Kill me now!!!!

Starting today, magsisimula na ako magpapayat. Para pag sa pasko, madaming kainan, ndi na ako mas bumigat pa sa 190!

Please pray for me and my endeavor.

Win na Win kay Baldwin!

Hahaha! Diba Win na Win! Pero hindi yan ang subject ng blog ko.

Nagbalik na naman ang alala ng aking High School days dahil sa Miss Universe 2010. Hindi dahil mahilig ako maglaro ng beauty contest sa amin at ako lagi ang Venezuela, kundi dahil sa isang lalaking nakalimutan kong naging parte ng buhay ko.

Siya ay si William Baldwin.

Bata pa siya dito (dahil ito yung face niyang crush ko siya at

hindi yung ngayong matanda na siya).

Siya ay isa sa mga judge ng Miss Universe 2010 at siya pa ang nagtanong kay Ma. Venus Raj na ikinaloka ng marami (ang sagot, ndi dahil kay William).

Una ko siyang nasilayan sa movie na Backdraft. Siya ay isang bombero dito. Mga ilang beses ko ding pinanuod ang pelikulang ito ng paulit-ulit. Bakit kamo? Click here.

Sumunod ay sa Fair Game, kung saan kasama niya si Cindy Crawford. Sobrang gwapo niya dito. Meron din silang steamy na scene sa loob ng train (ata?).

Sa pelikulang ito huli ko siyang nakita. Dito na kami naghiwalay. Iniwan niya akong nag-iisa, pagtapos niya akong gamitin ng paulit-ulit. Dito ko nalaman sa pelikulang ito na tunay pala akong babae dahil sa nararamdaman ko pag nakikita ko siya dito at lalo na dito.

Salamat sa Ms.U at nagkita kaming muli. Kahit sandali lang. :)

2010-08-24T23:50:00.000+08:00

Ang Ending ng Miss U.

Bahala na ang video na ito.

It's still a good night.

Good Night Universe! :)

This will sum up the emotions ng lahat

ng Pinoy na Bakla san man sa mundo. :)

Ang Miss Universe 2010

(dahil dito, napablog ako ulit!)

Nung 23 pa lang ng gabi, ako ang excited at pinilit matulog ng maaga para kinabukasan ay magising naman ako ng maaga para mapanuod ang Miss Universe 2010 sa ABS-CBN.

Nag-alarm ako ng 9:10 am, nakatulog ako ulit. Buti nagising ako ulit ng 9:35 am. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, "Shit! Shit! Shit!" Dali-dali kong binuksan ang TV and to my disappointment, ang nasa TV ay "Simply KC" pa din!

Buti naisip ko na pinapalabas rin pala ito sa Star World. So dun na ako nanuod. Ung part na sa Star World ay yung swimsuit na. KInakabahan ako kasi ang dami ng tinawag na bilat, walang Philippines. Tapos biglang ang huling babae tinawag ay, "Miss Philippines!" So nasa mood na ako. Kinakabahan ako at the same time excited.

Tapos brino-browse browse ko ulit sa Ch. 2 dahil hindi pwedeng hindi ko mapanuod ang opening ng Miss Universe at ang pagtawag kay Venus sa Top 15.

Tapos Top 10 na. Tinawag si Venus ng mas maaga. Hindi siya panghuli.

Top 5. Super kabado. Tinawag na isa isa. Ang huli ulit, "Miss Philippines!" Hindi ko batid na senyales pala ang twice na pagkaka-tawag kay Venus na last. Hmm.

Final Question. Hindi ko na masyado inentertain yung sagot ng iba. Mga snippets nalang ang napapansin kong moments. Pero nung Philippines na, I was very attentive. High School crush ko pa naman si William Baldwin, as in!!!

Dun na. Dun na ako nawala. I told myself, "4th na si Ate". :( True enough, 4th runner.

After ng pangyayaring ito, nagdagsaan na ang Tweets, FB statuses (eto rin ba ang plural ng status?), blog entries na for and against sa nangyari.

Share ko na lang mga status ko sa FB.

MY THOUGHTS KAY VENUS: Teh, un na teh eh. Nandun ka na, sinayang mo. To think sayo ang pinakamadaling sagutin ang Final Question. May mga cliche-ic answers na nga sa tanong na yun eh. Hindi kasi "thank you to etc etc" ang sagot sa tanong.. Kitang kita naman kasi 4th runner up ka teh. Masyado ka cguro natuwa sa suportters mo.. Congrats na din kasi out of the 80+ candidates, naka top 5 ka. Pero sayang. SAYANG VENUS.

Last Status ko

Iba't iba man tayo ng opinion, ngunit alam natin kung ano tama at ang mali. Dun ako naiirita. Hindi ko sinisiraan si Venus, ung sagot nya at ginawa niya ang di ko gusto. Beauty Queen ka ate, nagtraining ka sa Columbia, wala kang karapatang kakitaan ng kaba. Hindi rason yun para maligwak ka sa Q&A. Kahit nga ikaw teh, sabi sa Twitter, " RT @KCMontero: Venus Raj is laughing off her Q and A blunder. That's my type off girl, someone who can laugh at their mistakes. That's why I laugh a lot." See, natawa ka din sa ginawa mo. Remember iba ang natawa sa natuwa.

ITIGIL NA KA-IPOKRITAHAN!

Parang simpleng case ito ng isang batang nadapa at nagkagalos. Sasabihin ng Nanay, "Wala yan anak, hindi yan masakit. Malayo sa bituka yan." Eh kitang kita mo namang umiiyak / humahagulgol ung bata! So, masakit sya! Parang dito lang, huwag nyong sabihing "OK LANG" dahil alam nating hindi "OK LANG". Sayang ang nangyari. SAYANG. SAYANG talaga.

at least we know, democracy is still alive kasi iba-iba tayo ng pananawa at nakakapag-voice out tayo ng sentiments natin.. :)

Bakla daw si Ricky?

Oo naman! Bakla si Mama Ricky!.. A ibang Ricky ba tinutukoy nyo?

NAKAKALOKA.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Ang "Kung Hei Fat Choi" ay hindi Chinese, kundi Cantonese.. :)

Hindi naman kami yung family na uber kung magcelebrate ng Chinese New Year.
Every New Year lang, meron kaming dasal sa Timog (Buddhist)..
Tapos naka-red lang..
Tapos either lunch or dinner..
Pero bago magChinese New Year, dapat either nakapagpatrim ka na or nagpagupit ka..
Ewan namin bakit, nasanay na lang siguro..

Ngayong taon, sabay ang Valentine's Day at ang Chinese New Year.
Sabi nga, sulit ito. Double Celebration.
Tapos Sunday pa!
Good luck sa dami ng tao sa labas! Hehehe.

Ok rin pag ganito noh, at least may rason ka para magcelebrate,
hindi man lang dahil sa Valentine's Day kahit na Chinese New Year na lang..
Hay..

Wala pa kaming tikoy, bibili pa lang!!!!

Batang Mahirap

Well, ang post na ito ay hindi dahil sa ad or jingle ni Manny V. At ndi pa ata panahon para magbalik ako ng pulitika ang topic. chos! Naalala ko kasi ung mga sa ad ni Manny V. sa mga nakasabay ko sa jeep.

Papunta akong EDSA from Timog. Nakasabay ko sila sa jeep. 3 batang babae. Alam mong mahirap sila. Super dumi, sira-sira yung damit. May hawak silang isang malaking lobo na may lamang maliliit na lobo sa loob. Dahil sa libre lang sakay nila sa jeep, nakakandong sa pinakamatandang babae ang 2 pang bata. Maingay sila all throughout ng trip. Sa lakas ng pag-uusap nila, maririnig mo ang mga sinasabi nila. Napaiyak ako sa discussion nilang narinig ko. Hindi ko ineexpect na manggaling sa kanila ang ganung mga thoughts.

Bata 1: Tanga! Mag-eeleksyon na sa Mayo.

Ako (sa isip ko lang): taray ng mga batang ito alam nila.

Bata 2: OO nga, eh di malapit na tayong paalisin.

Bata 1 (asking Bata 2&3): Kayo kung papipiliin kayo, ano pipiliin ninyo? Bahay o Pera?

Bata 2&3: ...

Bata 1: Basta ako bahay. Aanhin ko naman ang pera. Mas importante saakin ang bahay tska pamilya.

Ako (in tears): ;,(

Hindi ko ineexpect talaga na ganun ung maririnig ko. IIisipin ko na ang isasagot nila is pera kasi may kailangan nila yun, pero ndi. Kahit mahirap sila, makikita mo how much they value their families. Kung may-ari lang ako ng Camella Homes, may bahay na sila.

Kaya, 'yan Villar, narinig mo na ang gusto ng mga bata.

Itigil na nga ang mga PRESSCON na yan.. Ano naman kung tatakbo kayo o hindi? BUKAS NA BA ANG ELEKSYON?! Tapusin niyo muna ang dapat niyong tapusin. NAKAKALOKA KAYO.

For Noynoy, based sa interview sa'yo Tina Palma, hindi ka makasagot ng direcho sa nagawa mo sa senado.. imbes na retreat ang atupagin mo, gumawa ka muna ng batas.. PLEASE!

For Mar, ewan ko sa'yo! Gustong gusto mo tumakbo, may pedicab-pedicab ka pang nalalaman. O, ano ka ngayon? "Lalaban pala tayo ah.." EWAN! Sabi mo kaya ka nagpaubaya kasi mas ma-lelead ni Noynoy ang bansa. Hala! Nung naisipan mo bang tumakbo, hindi mo ba naisip na kaya mong maglead? Ay leche. Ay wait, paano pala kung sinabi ni Noynoy na "No, I will not run for President," good luck sa'yo Mar! Mabuti pa, atupagin niyo ang kasal niyo ni Korina. Mas maganda pa yun!

For Among Ed, nagpapresscon ka din.. Sinasabi mo pang maraming nanghihikayat sayong tumakbo. Eh lahat naman yun ang sinasabi.. Sino yang mga nag-udyok sayo? Kamag-anak mo? Pang ilan ka ba sa survey? Sa Pampanga nga, maaalis ka pa atang governor eh, may pending pang re-count.. Tska hindi ka nga suportado ng mga opisyal sa Pampanga, gusto mo pa maging Presidente.. Hinahanap ka na ng simbahan, tutal yun naman talaga ang calling mo.

Sa mga sususnod pang magpa-presscon, PLEASE. Pag filing na ng Certificate of Candidacy, tska kayo magpresscon sabay sabay. Tig-isa pa kayo ng channel, pati cable kunin nyo, para sabay sabay kayong panoorin. Kung sino may pinakamataas na rating, un na panalo! Para tapos na agad!

Charity Begins At Home

I'm sure isa sa mga sumusunod ay naranasan nyo na:

1. Nakasakay ka sa jeep, bilang may aakyat, 2 sila, mag-gigitara ang isa, kakanta ang isa.. tapos mag-aabot ng envelope or letter na naka-fold.. Nanghihingi ng donation..

2. Nakasakay ka sa Bus. May aakyat na teenager. May dalang malaking plastic bag. Magpapamudmod ng letter, or laminated na papel. Humihingi ng assistance sa pag-aaral. Bumili lamang ng Dried Mangoes.

3. Kumakain ka sa isang "Al Fresco" na resto. May lalapit, nagbebenta ng hologram na Jesus Christ or Mary na cards.

4. Naglalakad sa sidewalk (esp sa UST), may mag-aabot ng sticker ng Hare Krishna, akala mo libre, 5 pesos pala yun.

Here's my share of these stories..

Namimili ako ng specialty board sa National Book Store sa Edsa Central. Siyempre mega hanap ako ng papel. Alam mo naman sa NBS, mahirap maghanap ng paper na pare-pareho. (AYUSIN NIYO NGA PAG-FIFILE NYO NG GAMIT!!!) Anyway, as I was browsing for papers, may lumapit saaking teen (ateh siya!), nag-abot ng papel. Nabasa ko ang heading, kabataan chuva ganun, may musika something pa sa title. Alam ko na ito. So sabi ko..

Me: Alam ko na yan. Wala.

Beki Teen: Kuya..

Me: Alam ko na nga yan.

Beki Teen: Si Kuya babasahin na yan.

Me: Nabasa ko na yan. Alam ko na yan.

Beki Teen: Babasahin na yan.

Me: Nabasa ko na nga yan! (Mejo mataas na ang boses)

Beki Teen: Kuya!!! Babasahin na yan.

Me: Nabasa ko na sabi! Wait lang..

ano kayang ginawa ko?

a. hahampasin ng board
b. pupunitin ang papel
c. walk-out!

Me: GUARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Umalis ang Beki Teen.

Ang pagtulong may tamang lugar, tamang oras at tamang rason.
Kung wala ang isang elemento dyan, WALANG tulong na maiibibigay.

Kung Hei Fat Choi or Kiong Hee Huat Tsai?

got this from several multiply and blog posts.. gusto ko lang ma-share para maitama ang nakagisnan na, hahaha..

By WILLARD CHENG, ABS-CBN Correspondent

Both greetings refer to the same set of four Chinese characters that means "Wishing you prosperity." But guess what is more appropriate to use and say when you are in the Philippines?

(Yes, it doesn’t even mean "happy new year" — more on this later)

"Kung Hei Fat Choi" has obviously been the more popular one, commonly said and printed on banners, advertisements and different forms of media. But this greeting is Cantonese.

Considering that majority of the Chinese Filipinos here in the Philippines speak the Hokkien dialect, I recommend that we say the greeting in Hokkien, which is pronounced and spelled as "Kiong Hee Huat Tsai."

Tsinoys will appreciate to hear the greeting in the dialect they understand. Cantonese is one of the nine other groups of dialects in China and is most commonly spoken in Hong Kong, Guangdong, and Macau. Hokkien is the dialect spoken in Fujian province where most of the Chinese-Filipinos come from.

If you happen to be in China and if you want to say the greeting in Mandarin, China’s official language (and spoken by the most number of people in the world), pronounce the greeting as "Kong Xi Fa Tsai" (written and spelled formally as "Gong Xi Fa Cai").

I suspect some Hong Kong or Cantonese restaurant started to popularize the Cantonese greeting here, which is weird because there is a very scant population of Tsinoys from Guangdong or Hong Kong.

Oh, I remember a jingle from a TV commercial of a fast-food chain years ago that goes: "Kung Hei Fat Choi ay nandito na/ Sa McDo, may regalo, prosperity coupons/ Para to kay lolo/ Para to kay lola/ Para to sa buong pamilyaaa." Well, Tsinoys do not understand and speak "Kung Hei Fat Choi."

It’s like saying "Maayong buntag" (Good morning) to a Tagalog who doesn’t understand and speak Bisaya.

So, let’s start banishing "Kung Hei Fat Choi" from our vocabulary and start to pratice saying the greeting in Hokkien, "Kiong Hee Huat Tsai," which is widely understood by Tsinoys here.

Spread the word, "Kiong Hee Huat Tsai!"

If you want to greet your friend "Happy New Year" in Mandarin, say it as "Xin Nien Kwai Le" (formally written as "Xin Nian Kuai Le"). In Hokkien, say it as "Sin Ni khòai lok."

Also, don’t also be confused with the lion and dragon dance, which are sometimes interchanged. The four-legged dancing creature is a lion, which is maneuvered by two dancers (one moves the head while the other moves the tail). It has wiggling ears and blinking eyes and is the one that also goes around the streets and reach for the angpao or red envelope hung at the door. It is usually led by a masked man with a fan.

On the other hand, a dragon has a longer body that is maneuvered by more dancers. It is a guided by a man that holds a dragon ball.

Point out the difference when people say "There’s the dragon!" while the dancing creature turns out to be a lion.

Kiong Hee Huat Tsai!

(Willard is one of ABS-CBN News’ correspondents. He wrote this piece as an off-shoot of an e-mail explaining the difference between the Kung Hei Fat Choi/Kiong Hee Huat Tsai greetings for the Chinese new year.)

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true...

All I want for Christmas is

YOU (pogi)..

2008-12-14T00:43:00.002+08:00

This Holiday
(kasi wala kaming Christmas)

Advance Xmas post.
Christmas is all about sharing and giving.
Let's do our share in helping others.
Happy Holidays..

Nichiren Daishonin writes, "If you light a lantern for another, it will also brighten your own way" (Gosho Zenshu, p. 1598). Please be confident that the higher your flame of altruistic action burns, the more its light will suffuse your life with happiness. Those who possess an altruistic spirit are the happiest people of all.

Congrats 'Te!.. Pero..

The first ever Miss Earth from the Philippines!!
Ganda ni Ate! Congrats!
(in her almost sight na ang kipay kong gown.. na super love ko ang chiffon!! flowy talaga!)

Early favorite ang ate mong si Mexico (na ka fez ng vocalist ng Evanescence!). At ndi ko siya bet! Mayabang. Kung mapapanuod nyong muli ang pag pasok nya nung Long Gown. Panget pa ng gown!

Aminin mo, magkafez ang past at present!

Bet ko talaga si Tanzania! Minus the gown. Pinilit kasi ipasok sa sagot ang "plant trees". Hindi tuloy na-win! OA talaga ang opening ng mga mouth pag nawiwin noh?!

Eto na ang PERO..

ANG CHAKA NG PRODUCTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nung swimsuit competition, yung mga camera angle josko!
Minsan paa na lang nakikita sa screen!

Muntik na makita ang perlas ng silangan ni ate. Buti nagblack siyang panty.

Ang stage? Beijing Olympics? Gawin bang inspiration ang BIrd's Nest Stadium?

Ang LED. Miss Universe na Miss Universe. Ginaya nalang nga, sana ginandahan. Walang sense yung nasa sa floor. Yung sa nakasabit naman, pagkasyahin ba sa vertical screen ang buong kaganapan sa stage?

Wala na tayong magagawa sa opening number, trademark na ng Miss Earth gumamit ng popular song na imimix sa Miss Earth song.

Naawa ako sa Davao dancers, parang may fiesta lang. Pinilit ang concept.

Ang blocking sa stage habang rumarampa (swimsuit and long gown) ang mga hindi finalists.. Grabe naman! Di naman pinag-isipan. Garo-garo lang. Robby Carmona yan diba?

At ang mga host, Inglesera na nga sila, nagkakamali pa! Si Billy Joe, PDA palang mali-mali na, di pa nadala! Si Riza naman, nakakdistract ang make-up at ilong (nose line ba nagpatangos?) Ngrereflect ang fez nila si Priscilla sa ilaw. Parang make-up ng mga mime artists sa Baywalk ang ginamit sa kanila. At si Priscilla, please ALISIN nyo na siya! Baka na sa susunod na naman siyang Miss Earth or kahit sa Miss Philippines!!!!!

Pasensiya na.

2008-11-01T00:39:00.002+08:00

Tayò Na!!!

Stand Up for Cancer!..
PANALO!!!!!!
Love fergie's last part!!

DYOSA

Simula college, "goddess" na ang tawag saakin.
Nagsimula yun sa course ko lang.
Hanggang na-adopt na siya buong college.
Nang lumawak ang reach ko,
pati mga taga-ibang college,
un na din ang tawag saakin.

Bakit nga ba goddess?
EH BAKIT NAMAN HINDI!

Kaya ng lumabas ang DYOSA ni Anne,
madaming nagtext saakin..
Kakabugin na daw ako ni Anne..
Upang patunay na ako pa rin ang tunay,
tingan nyo na lang ang header ko!

Sa mga skeptics (hahaha..)

Just Tired

"Tired of Love"

Gets nyo ba ang picture?
Tired of Love..
You know, gulong = tired..
Love + heart = love..
Hehehe.
(nax i still get to laugh about it)

napapagod ba talaga ang taong magmahal?
a scene from A Very Special Love says yes..

Migs (John Lloyd):
"Wag ka na umasa na mamahalin kita. Mapapagod ka lang".

Laida (Sarah):

"Kahit kelan di ako napagod dahil hindi ka mahirap mahalin.
Ngayon lang." (walkout)

i dunno.
after a long day sa UST, pag-uwi ko..
dun ko na lang siya bigla naramdaman..
i'm not actually tired of love,
but tired of loving..
loving the wrong guy i guess..

is it because of the choices i made?
or did i just wished so hard?
or sabi nga sa quote..
"para kang nag-aabang ng jeep sa sakayan ng mrt.."

ewan.

bahala na.

sanay na.

mag-vivitamins na lang ako.
baka sakaling ganahan ako ulit.

mag-aabang nalang ako ulit ako ng jeep..
paparating sa guadalupe station..

CEBU and TAXI

2nd home ko na ata ang Cebu.
Lagi kasi kami may event dun.
Waterfront.
Marco Polo Plaza
and recently sa Hilton Cebu.

sosyal noh?
ndi rin.
ndi naman ako nagstay dyan,
nag-event lang,

sa bawat event ko sa Cebu,
taxi ang lagi kong mode of transportation.
walang choice.
ndi ako familiar sa place.

07.25-26.08
mega taxi xempre.

1st taxi moment:

naiwan ng boss ko ang planner nya sa boxi.
tumawag saakin ang front desk ng hotel.
kinuha ko sa driver ng planner.
at ang sabi nya, "pahingi naman ng 50!"
nag-init ang ulo ko xempre.
pang gas daw, ang layo daw ng nilakbay nya.
ayaw pa ring umalis, na-Bernadette Allyson na akez.
"Etong 50! (nag-miss universe ako ang susunod na eksena)
Sa susunod, kung gagawa ka ng kabutihan, wag kang humingi ng kapalit!"
WORLD PEACE!
Imbyerna talaga ako sa ganun.

2nd taxi moment:

pabalik na sa hotel.
80 ang bill.
"Dagdagan mo naman.."
Sbi ko, "bakit?!"
"Kung ayaw mo eh di wag!"
(panalo, nagthrethreat!)
"Bakit ka nga kasi humihingi ng dagdag?
I need a reason!"
(diba naghingi nga reason?!)

3rd taxi moment:
naiwan/nahulog globe fone ko sa taxi.

Bagong Pangalan, Bagong Image

Nasa pangalan nga ba ang inaasam na tagumpay?
Ating alamin.

Ang dating Abby Viduya..
ngayon, Priscilla Almeda na..

(aminin.. ahit na ahit ang keps!!)

Ang dating Gracia!!!..
ngayon, Samantha Lopez na..

(bakit kaya nausa ang nakalabas na
konting buhok na nilawayan muna?)

Ang dating si Apple Zuniga..
ngayon, Nini Jacinto na..

(sinong nag-isip ng pictorial na ito?)

Ang dating si Patricia Javier..
ngayon, Genesis na..

(in all fairness sa kili-kili!)

at ang bagong sasali sa listahan..
sariwang-sariwa.. sa retoke..
new image..
a singer on the rise..
ang nangahas maging..
"Kylie Minogue of the Philippines"
ang nag-iisang..
NANCY JANE!!!!

I love the song, the video!
Don't you love it?

Si Nancy Castiglione yan ah?
OO NGA, SIYA NGA!!!!
Mas mas kaakit akit, at mas matigas sumayaw!

To answer my question, "Ang pagpalit ba ng pangalan ay magbibigay sayo ng inaasam na bagong tagumpay?" Hmm. Sasagutin ko din ito ng isang tanong.. ASAN NA BA SILA NGAYON? Wag sana mapasama sa listahan si Nancy Jane sa nawawalang showbiz personalities! May future pa naman siya!

2008-06-07T17:14:00.002+08:00

NAHUSGAHAN NA

Napanuod ko na ang Caregiver at Sex and The City..
Eto ang aking masasabi..

In all fairness sa Caregiver..
Hahaha..
Un lang..

Maganda siya.
NGUNIT, ang problema kasi saakin pagnaha-hype ang isang pelikula,
tumataas ang expectations ko para dito.
Hindi nga lang siya umabot doon sa ineexpect ko.

Naiiyak naman ako kahit papaano sa mga eksena.
Very "totoo sa buhay" ang mga lines na ginamit.
Ang ganda ng london.
Gusto ko sumakay sa train!
Ang daming symbolism na ginamit sa pelikula.
Iyak ng iyak si Sharon.
Buti pa siya! Hahaha.

Sex and The City

"Oh my god!"
Yan ang masasabi ko.

Oh my god ang mga sumusunod:
1. wedding gowns sa vogue
2. everyday outfit nila
3. di sumipot si Big
4. hinampas siya ni Carrie
5. warla si Charlotte
6. ang akala mong matigas na etits ng jowa ni samantha
7. expression ni Miranda sa may tulay
8. nagtae si Charlotte sa pants
9. nagkita si Carrie and Big sa dresser
10. ANG PESTENG EDITING NG PALABAS!

Mas naiyak ko sa SATC kaysa sa Caregiver.
Siguro kasi mas nakaka-relate ako sa mga girls.
Hindi naman ako kasi Caregiver!
Chos.
Love and relationships kasi yung sa SATC kaya mas nakakaiyak.

Oo nga pala,
patay na si DaBoy of Philippine Movies.
Share ko lang, kasi baka idol nyo siya!

2008-05-30T17:51:00.007+08:00

My Newest Crush

Basta para saakin cute siya!
Nakasama ko siya sa isang event.
Ang hot.

Para siyang michael buble.
Ganun mga songs nya.

I so love Richard Poon!!!!

Listen to his version of the Beautiful Girls, Irreplaceable and Umbrella!
And he's done it in his own way!

2008-05-25T16:35:00.002+08:00

TORN BETWEEN TWO..

Sa May 28, 2008 2 movie ang magshoshowing..

Sex and the City

and Caregiver

Ano ang uunahin ko?
Pero ang pinakatanong, matutuloy naman kaya ang panonood ko?
I have issue with work schedule.
Mag-blog nga, hindi ko na rin nagagawa.
Manuod pa kaya ng sine?!

2008-05-01T20:14:00.003+08:00

High Ka Diva!

Wala atang baklang hindi alam ang segment na ito sa MTB.
And who could forget the hunks? NAMAN!
At salamat sa YouTube, napanuod ko siya ulit.

Ang contest na ito ay pataasan ng boses, ndi pagandahan.
Kaya pwedeng kayo dumisagree sa nanalo (katulad ko!)

Pero umpisahan ko muna sa mga weekly episodes lang.
Hindi pa grand finals.
Pero sana napasama sila.
Mga teens singers na underrated,
Musica Cristobal and Michelle Ayalde!

Panalo silang dalawa diba?

Pero siyempre, dahil pataasan ito ng boses, may mga pumipiyok din.
Let's have Kitkat and Nina.

Eto na. Grand Finals.
Dianne Dela Fuente and Frenchie Dy.
Si Dianne and nanalo.
Dito ko na-discover na Frenchie ay nakaka-whistle tone.

Hay Buhay..

Hate That I Love You

Yeah... hey... Oh...

[Rihanna:]
That's much I love you (yeah)
That's how much I need you (yeah, yeah, yeahah)
And I can't stand ya
Most everything you do
Make me wanna smile
Can I not like you for awhile (no... oh...)

[Ne-Yo:]
Cuz' you won't let me
You upset me girl
And then you kiss my lips
All of a sudden I forget (that I was upset)
Can't remember what you did

[Rihanna:]
But I hate it...
You know exactly what to do
So that I can't stay mad at you
For too long that's wrong

[Ne-Yo:]
But I hate it...
You know exactly how to touch
So that I don't want to fuss... and fight no more
Said I despise that I adore you

[Rihanna:]
And I hate how much I love you boy (yeah...)
I can't stand how much I need you (I need you...)
And I hate how much I love you boy (oooh whoah...)
But I just can't let you go
And I hate that I love you so (oooh...)

[Ne-Yo:]
And you completely know the power that you have
The only one that makes me laugh

[Rihanna:]
Sad and it's not fair
How you take advantage of the fact
That I... love you beyond the reason why (why...)
And it just ain't right

[Ne-Yo:]
And I hate how much I love you girl
I can't stand how much I need you (yeah...)
And I hate how much I love you girl
But I just can't let you go
But I hate that I love you so

[Both:]
One of these days maybe your magic won't affect me
And your kiss won't make me weak
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
So you'll probably always have a spell on me...

[Ne-Yo:]
Yeaahhh... Oohh...

[Both:]
And I hate that I love
You soooooooo!

[Rihanna:]
As much I love you (as much as I need you oh...)
As much as I need you (oooh... as so much I love you)
As much I love you (oh...)
As much as I need you

[Rihanna:]
And I hate that I love you soooo
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can't stand how much I need ya (cant stand how much I need you)
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can't let you go (but I just can't let you go no...)
And I hate that I love you so

And I hate that I love you so... soo...

*****

THE BEST VERSION EVER..
Kung hindi ka pa ma-in love, EWAN KO NA!

Sinasabi Na Eh

Tinext ko siya about sa outing nila. Di na daw siya punta. Magdrdrive daw kasi siya sa kapatid nya sa Timog. May debut kasi. May meeting talaga me sa Timog. 1-4pm. Magtuturo ng Marimba sa mga Buddhist kids. Pero di ko sinabi sa kanya na pupunta ako ng Timog. I just asked him kung hihintayin ba niya kapatid nya or hahatid lang. Text daw nya ako.

2pm umalis na me office. Texted him. Nagpapa-car wash daw sya. Sabi ko papunta na me Timog. 3pm na ako nakadating Timog. 4pm natapos na ako sa pagtuturo. Magkatext. Biglang segue to asking him out on a dinner. DI sumagot. Mga 6pm, nagreply. Naka-idlip daw siya. Sure daw. Mga 8pm dumating na siya Timog. Hinatid kapatid. Nagdinner. Usap. 10pm, nagtext na kapatid. Tapos na daw debut. Mga 11pm, pareho na kaming nakauwi.

Masaya. Pwede na nga akong mamatay sa saya ko! Ang saya.. saya.. pero hanggang kelan? Sinabi ko na kasi wag eh.

"So tired of falling in love.. Simply falling.. Just falling..
Without anyone catching.."

2008-04-02T22:14:00.003+08:00

Ayoko Nito!

I caught myself smiling.
Tapos bigla kong kinanta ang kantang ito nang PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT, PAULIT-ULIT...
hanggang ngayon..

What is this I'm feelin'
I just can't explain
When you're near
I'm just not the same
I'm tryin' to hide it
Try not to show it
It's crazy
How could it be

I've fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in
And I'm fallen in love
I finally know how it feels

When you said hello
I looked in your eyes
Suddenly, I felt good inside
Is this really happenin'
Or am I just dreaming
I guess, it's true
I can't believe

I've fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in
And I'm fallen in love
I finally know how it feels
So this is love

Doesn't matter where I am
Thoughts of you still linger in my mind
No matter what time of day
I've really, really
Fallen for you

I've fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in
And I'm fallen in love
I finally know how it feels
I've fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in
And I'm fallen in love
I finally know how it feels
So this is love

ndi ko hinilight yung FALLEN FOR YOU,
kasi ndi pa at ayaw ko.

UTANG NA LOOB!

This will be a new segment in my blog. UTANG NA LOOB! (not to be translated in English, kasi mga iiba ang meaning) will present goddess' view on current issues in the Philippines, kung meron interesting sa world, why not? THIS IS JUST MY VIEW.

For my primer, 2 current events ang aking tatalakayin.

1st. Bb. Pilipinas-World 2008 Janina San Miguel

Ang ganda! Tama, maganda nga siya. Maganda LANG. Pinag-usapan na ito hindi lang sa gay community, kundi sa lahat na ata ng community sa Pilipinas. Sa sagot at Ingles na mali-mali, sino ba naman ang hindi pag-uusapan. Sinagot na din nya ang issue, ang sabi nya, "History na ito!" Naman! History ka talaga. Dahil ikaw lang ang bobang nanalo sa isang beauty contest! At sino bang nagsabi na lahat ng nasa History eh magaganda bagay? Kahit mga kriminal nasa History na noh?! Un pa kayang boba. Sabi nga sa isang blog sa wordpress na nabasa ko (pasenxa nakalimutan ko address), ndi naman sa maling grammar kaya naging mali si Janina eh, dahil daw ito sa maling sagot nya sa tanong. Ang tanong role ng family, ang sagot importance ng pamily! Un ang boba!

Ruffa Gutierrez was asked about this. Sabi nya, "... judged not only for the beauty, but also for the brains." Naman! Kaya sa punyetang Bb. Pilipinas organizers yan! Kesho hindi naman daw basehan sa Miss World 2008 ang Question and Answer portion. Punyeta! Last ko ng sasabihin ito, "Wah ako pake kung walang Q&A sa Miss World! Anak nampota! Ni minsan ba, ndi siya kakausapin ng mga janice hurado? O kahit ng mga co-kandidata nya? UTANG NA LOOB, kung ganda at ganda lang ang basehan, AKO NA SANA IPADALA SA MISS WORLD! Marunong pa akong mag-chinese!! PIAO SI! chos! PUNYETA! Madaming ARTADI at MONTECARLO dyan na mas maganda pa kay Janina, sana sila nalang ang ipadala (buhayin ba ang swestiyon ng husto husto?!) Or sana, mga PIPI na lang pinadala natin, at least sila for a cause ang drama!!" Janina, UTANG NA LOOB mag-aral ka pa!

2nd. Nanalo na naman si Manny Paquiao!

Congrats to Manny for winning again. Yayaman na naman siya. Dadami na naman ang endorsements nya. Tatakbo na naman siya sa 2010 (malay natin diba?). Naisipan nga dati eh, ngayon pa kaya? Madadagdagan na naman ang TV show nya. Ano? May TV show si Manny? NAMAN!

Siyempre masaya na nanalo siya diba? Pinoy siya. Pride na din natin yun, diba? Ang hindi ko lang ma-take eh yung mga statements niya lagi. Na "kahit na mabugbog ako, para naman sa bayan ito," or "ginagawa ko lahat to para sa mga Pilipino," or "gusto ko lang naman mapasaya ang mga tao sa pagkapanalo ko, " at "sana magka-isa na tayong lahat" aahh.. napaka-nationalistic mo naman Manny. Kaya pala may kinikilinggan kang politiko noh? How sincere naman of you. Para pala sa bayan yang ginagawa mo. Eh san ba napupunta mga cash prize mo? May napupunta ba sa naghihikahos na mamamayan ng Gen San? Balita ko madami pa ding mahirap dun? Ano ba namang kahit mga taga-Gen San lang muna ang tulungan mo? Alam kong ndi mo responsibilidad yun, pero sinabi mo sa TV, nag-press release ka eh! Kaya Manny Pacquiao, UTANG NA LOOB kumilos ka.

When Mythology Meets The Legend

(Davao Trip)

gmail messages:

g: Mandaya, pupunta ako ng Davao this Feb. 23-25. Taga-san ka dun?

m: Sabihin mo lang kung saan ka sa davao at babyahe ako sa city para sa yo.

Sa eroplano pa lamang bago kami bumaba ng Davao, inaannounce na, "Davao City is a smoke-free city." SALAMAT! I told myself. I will love Davao. (As if naman 1st time ko lang sa Davao! Hindi naman kasi ganun yung dati)

I was in Davao for our yearly Buddhist Exchange Meeting. All boys ang effect ng meeting na ito. I saw some friends from Cebu, Cagayan de Oro and Davao. Mawawala ba ang mga cuties? Hehehe. Ever present din sila. Tumaba na yung isa. Mas gumwapo ang isa. Pa-cute pa din yung isa pa. Enriching. Fun. Enlightening.

Ano ba ang Davao kung hindi sa suha? Nag-uwi ako ng isang box na suha. Pag dating sa Maynila, ilang piraso ang sira! May natitira pa namang masasarap. Bumili din ng durian. For mudang. Paborito nya. Di ko kaya ang amoy!

Mag-eeleven na ng gabi. Naghihintay si Mandaya sa isang coffee shop. Kasama ko ang 2 kong bading na Buddhist friend (xempre di ko memorize ang Davao noh?). Sinabihan pa nga akong "Over" nitong ni Mandaya kasi sabi ko may kasama ako. Echosera! Dumating me sa lugar.

text message:

g: San ka?
m: may white na laptop

naghanap ako. nasight ko siya. nasight na akez! (Ano ito EB?!)

actual conversation:

g: ikaw pala yan!
m: go, shoot!

diba? artista. nagkwentuhan. chineck ang laptop para sa mga pictures. at may premiere pa ng isang video ng isa sa kanyang super friends. isa lang ang comment ko sa video: good luck! mawawala ba sa usapan tungkol sa higanteng oven at xempre ang pag-iibigan nila ni Kulot. masaya ang pagkikita. masaya ang pag-uusap. actually, pinagchachant ko na rin siya, with the help of my buddhist friends, inexplain nila kay Mandaya ang Buddhism. Nagustuhan (tama ba?) naman niya ang idea. well see. pag nakuha na niya. (don't forget to text me for updates).

hinatid nya kami pauwi. pero bago kami umalis sa lugar (pinapatayan na kasi kami ng ilaw!), ang huling habilin niya, "Quiet lang ah."

hanggang ngayon, kahit tanungin ako nila Mrs. J kung ano itsura ni Mandaya, ang tanging sinasabi ko ay, "meron akong vow of secrecy." Chos!

Maalaala Mo Kaya

Dear Ate Charing,

Sumulat po ako upang ibahagi sa mga mambabasa ang kwento ng aking kaibigan. Itago na lang po natin silang, Jack and Jill.

Si Jack at Jill ay magkakaklase sa kolehiyo simula first year. Si Jack ay taga-probinsya. Naka-flat tops ang buhok at may bigote pa ito. Si Jill naman ay isang "Manila Girl". Ubod siya ng ganda. PERIOD.

Jill: Nyay. Probinsyano!
Jack: Gwapo naman!
Jill: Che!

Lagi silang magkaaway noong sila ay 1st year. Magkatabi silang umupo dahil alphabetically arranged ang seat plan sa halos lahat ng class. Naalala pa nga ni Jill ang pagpapasa ng mga porn cds ni Jack at ng isa pa nitong classmate kaya inis na inis ito sa kanya lagi. Si Jack at Jill pala ng mga panahong ito ay relasyon sa ibang tao.

Noong 2nd year na sila, medyo nagbago ang lahat. Medyo naging close sila. Nandun pa din ang asaran, pero minimal na lang. Isang araw..

Jill: (sa phone) Nandyan ba si Jack?
Jack: O, bakit?
Jill: Diba malapit lang bahay niyo sa ABS-CBN?
Jack: OO, bakit?
Jill: Pwede mo ba akong samahan sa Bantay Bata? May project kasi ako sa Student Council.
Jack: Ok sige.

Sa mga panahong ito, nagkakasama din ang dalawa sa library kasama ang iba pa nilang classmate upang mag-aral para sa kanilang exams (prelims and finals). Ilang araw din silang pabalik-pabalik sa Bantay Bata dahil sa dami ng requirements dito. Lagi na rin silang magka-usap sa fone.

Hanggang sa kalaunan..

Jill: (on phone) Ano?
Jack: Anong ano?
Jill: Ano na nga tayo?
Jack: Sabi ko sa ex ko na hindi muna ako magkaka-gf.
Jill: Ah, eh di wala na. (iyak)
Jack: Hindi ko alam.
Jill: Eh may usapan pala kayo eh. (iyak)
Jack: Ewan ko.
Jill: Bahala ka na nga. Kasalanan ko bang may nararamdaman ako sayo.
Jack: Ako din naman eh.
Jill: (iyak)
Jack: (iyak)

Naging sila na. Itinago nila ang relasyong ito. Hindi ito maaring malaman ng iba. Dahil si Jack ay tunay na lalake at si Jill ay lalake na babae ang puso.

Masaya naman ay kanilang naging pagsasama. Nagpapalitan pa sila ng mga love letters nila. Nagsusulatan ng notes habang nasa class.

sa isang sulat ni Jack kay Jill:

"Kung sinasabi mong hindi kita mahal, fuck you! Wala akong pakialam kung bading ka. Hindi ko nga rin alam kung bakit ako na-inlove sa bading. Basta ang alam ko, mahal kita."

May mga ka-naughtyhan things din. Masaya sila. Masayang-masaya. Minsan, sila ay nasa school ng linggo upang magkita at mag-aral.

Jack: Nandyan na parents ko. Sinusundo na ako.
Jill: Ok sige. Alis na din ako.

Lumalakad palabas ng gate si Jill ng biglang dumaan ang kotse nila Jack sa harap nito. Nagkatinginan sila.

Jack: (text) Hinding-hindi kita iiwan.
Jill: (text) Ako din.

Ngunit minsan, dumarating ang kanilang pag-aawayan.

Jack: Sabi ko na sayo eh. (sabay suntok sa tiyan)

Naglabasan ang mga classmates nila sa room

Jill: (iyak)
Jack: Kaw naman kasi eh.
Jill: (iyak)
Jack: (naiiyak) Sorry na. (sabay kiss, punas luha ni Jill).

Ilang beses din naganap ang mga ganitong pangyayari. Minsan mas malala pa. Minsan sa public place pa. Hanggang sa isang araw nag-away sila ng sobra sa loob ng classroom. Inawat na sila ng mga kaibigan. Lumabas si Jill sa classroom.

Jill: Tawagin niyo siya. Gusto ko siya makausap.
Classmate: Wag na muna, baka mag-away lang kayo.
Jill: (texting Jack) Labas ka. Usap nga tayo. Sorry.
Jack: (on text) Hindi na. Tapos na tayo.
Jill: (text) Ano ba? Mag-usap tayo.
Jill: (text) Hoy, ano ba?
Jill: (text) Please naman.

After 1 year and 9 months, nagbreak na sila.

Lumipas ang araw at birthday na ni Jill. Nagpunta ito sa bahay ni Jack kahit na hindi na sila. Mahal pa rin ni Jill si Jack. Habang nagluluto ng pagkain si Jack, napansin ni Jill ang isang cellphone na hindi naman kay Jack. Binuksan ang inbox.

Jill: (hinagis ang cellphone) Ano ito?! Kala ko ba.
Jack: Bakit kasi nangialam ka?
Jill: (hysterical) Tarantado ka. Shit ka. Sakit!
Jack: Tama na.

Umakyat si Jill sa kwarto at nag-lock ngh pinto. Pinilit itong binuksan ni Jack. Nadatnan niyang iyak nang iyak si Jill.

Jack: (iyak) Ano ba? Tama na.
Jill: (struggle) Sabi mo walang iba.
Jack: Hindi mo kasi naiintindihan.
Jill: (pinapound niya si Jack) Niloko mo ako! Niloko mo ako!
Jack: (yakap-yakap si Jill) Tama na. Di ko naman gusto ito. Matagal na kita dapat hiniwalayan. Nalaman ni Mama at Papa. Nabasa ni Mama mga sulat mo saakin. I-didisown ako ni Papa pag hindi raw kita hiniwalayan. Mahirap to para saakin.
Jill: (iyak) Wala na rin naman akong magagawa. Alis na ako. (kiniss si Jack)

Simula noon, hindi na sila magkasamang mag-aral sa library, hindi na sila sabay aalis ng school, hindi na sila sabay kumain ng lunch. Sa classroom na lamang sila nagkakatabi muli. Hindi naman kinaila ni Jill na may nangyayari pa rin sa kanila ni Jack kahit wala na sila. Kasi nga daw, mahal pa rin niyo ito.

Jack: Wag mo na kasi akong mahalin. Iba na.
Jill: Hindi ko kaya eh. Ikaw sabi ng puso ko eh.
Jack: Puso puso. Hindi naman kasi puso ginagamit sa pagmamahal eh. Utak!
Jill: Anong hindi, eh bakit masakit dito? (pointing sa dibdib/puso area)

Hanggang ngayon, ganun pa rin ang estado nila. Si Jack pa rin at ang kanyang gf. Si Jill naman, kahit madami ng dumaang ibang lalaki (ngunit hindi naging sila) si Jack pa rin ang gustong makasama.

Sana po ay naibigan ninyo ang kwento ng aking kaibigan. Marami pong salamat.

Lubos na gumagalang,
goddess.

******

Imposible nga ba ang ganitong uri ng relasyon?
Ang relasyon ba dapat Lalake-Babae lamang?

Kasalanan ba ang relasyong Babae-Babae o Lalake-Lalake?
Sabi ng mga Kristiyano, OO, bawal ang ganitong relasyon.
Buti na lang Buddhist ako.

Ang pag-ibig ba ay ginawa lang para sa Babae-Lalakeng relasyon?
Kung hindi pag-iibigan ang nararamdaman nina Jack at Jill, eh ano?
Libog? Madaming babaeng pakantot dyan! Madaming lalakeng pachupa dyan!

Sino tayo para sabihing hindi totoo ang pag-ibig nilang dalawa?
Pag umiiyak ang lalake dahil nasasaktan niya ang bading, hindi ito dahil sa pag-ibig?
Pag nagsusulat ng love letter ang lalake at sinasaad ang buong puso niyang pagmamahal dito, masasabi ba nating, peke ito?

Sabi nga ni Jack kung di ka naniniwala, "Fuck You!"

Hindi ko sinasabing perfect ang relasyon nilang dalawa. Tignan mo, naghiwalay din sila. May gf na itong si Jack. Kung iisipin mo, hindi ba ito nangyari dahil din sa pagmamahalan ng dalawa? Si Jack, hiniwalayan niya si Jill dahil sa alam nitong pareho lang silang masasaktan at may mas deserving sa pagmamahal nito. Si Jill, pinalaya si Jack kahit masakit kasi alam niyang doon siya magiging masaya. Tanggap niya na may mga bagay na tanging babae lang ang makakapagbigay sa lalake. Ngunit kahit na sa ganun, patuloy pa rin niya itong minamahal.

Ang relasyong babae-babae o lalake-lalake ay pareho lamang sa mga heterosexual na pagmamahalan. Ang kinaiba lang, sa babae-babae, ni isa sa kanila ay walang titi. Sa lalake-lalake naman, ni isa sa kanila, walang puke. Sagutin niyo nga ito, sino ba nagsabi na ang puke ay para sa titi lamang?

Hanga ako sa mga lalakeng may mahal na bading. Hindi dahil pinatulan ang katulad kong bading, ngunit sa kanya mo makikita ang tunay na pagmamahal. Nakuha nilang pumasok sa isang komplikadong relasyon. Kahit ano man ang masabi at sinasabi ng iba, wala siyang pakialam dito. Sila ay ang mga taong pinakamarunong magmahal, dahil sa ang pagmamahal nila ay hindi naka-base sa kasarian ng isang tao. Nagmamahal sila dahil sa mahal nila ang tao at hindi dahil sa mahal nila ito dahil ito ay babae.

Hanga din ako sa mga bading na nagmamahal, kahit alam nilang isang araw, mawawala ang lalakeng mahal nila, minamahal at minamahal pa rin ito. Hindi lang yun, magaling pa silang chumupa! Hahaha.

Hair-do's!

I've just finished ung bago kong kinababaliwang reality show.. Wala pa siya dito sa pinas.. Sa DVD ko lang napanuod.. 1st was Top Design.. and last was Shear Genius..

panalo! parang siyang Hair Asia ang level.. Naku pag ito ay na-franchise ng Pinas, sino kaya ang magiging host nito? Well, depende sa network na bibili..

Pag channel 2, Fanny Serrano ang host nito. Pag channel 7, sino nga ba? One thing's for sure, si Louie Ignacio ang direktor nito. So, good luck! At pag channel 9 ang bumili, asahan nyo ng si Gandang Ricky Reyes yan ang magiging host nito. Sinong bet nyo?

About hair-do's, bob ngayon ang inaachieve kong look. Dati kong hair ay mala katie holmes. Tapos naging mas bet ko na ang Gretchen Barretto bob. Tapos after a week, Victoria Beckham bob na ang bet ko! Nasa buhok ko kaya ang susi ng aking success patungo sa pagkakaroon ng lalakeng gwapo? Tignan mo si Katie, may Tom. Si Victoria, may ultra tangina hot na si David. Si Gretchen, un, si Gretchen may mabait na asawa! Hahaha.. Pag humaba na ulit ang buhok ko, try ko ulit i-achieve ang Gretchen Barretto bob. At pag super humaba na ang hair ko, the ultimate bob na talaga ng i-aachieve ko. The Nancy Kwan bob, the signature bob of Vidal Sassoon! Taray ng lola mo. Asian! Napansin pa siya ni Vidal Sassoon! (Hindi shampoo si Vidal Sassoon ah!!)

Ang video parang behind the scene sa isang magazine shoot.
Parang may shoot lang for Vanity Fair!

Ang nagbago lang, ang kanilang istura at fashion.
Sophisticated na ang mga lola mo ngayon!
Gone are the Jolina Magdangal days of fashion!

May nagsasabi na boring daw ang opening salvo ng mga lola ninyo with this video.
Anong gusto nyo, parang "Wannabe" ang ganap nila ngayon?
Hello? Maturity?
Pero yung song, nandun pa rin yung "Tatak Spice Girls!"
Alam mo agad na sila ang kumanta nun.

Ganun pa rin sila and I love it!
Ganun pa rin ang kilos ni Mel B.
Panalo pa rin ang singing parts ni Mel C.
Pa-sweet pa din ang Emma.
Naka-red pa rin si Geri.
At least ngayon, medyo mahaba na ang singing part na si Victoria.
Panalo ang diamond dress ni Victoria!

Sino pala kayo sa Spice Girls?
Wag na kayong magkaila!
Lahat ng bading feeling nila isa sila sa mga spice girls!
Ako, bet ko si Mel C.
Siya kasi ang magaganda ang singing parts, so pagkakanta kami, akin ang magandang part! I love the second voice especially sa may dulong part "Viva Forever".

Enjoy the video.
Sing a long na din during your second viewing.
Sa playlist ko rin pala sa may sidebar, spice girl songs.

Headlines - Spice Girls

The time is now or never to fit the missing piece
To take this on together you make me feel complete
We fall into the future and through the looking glass
The light shines over our heads and so it comes to pass

To go beyond the surface to reach into your soul
This love is not for mending my heart has told me so
I’ll hold on to my hero with faith and love to fly
The power to imagine will keep this love alive

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
I wanna tell the world I’m giving it all to you
Let’s the headlines loud and clear
The best thing suddenly happened when you are here
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

And it feels so good every step of the way
Your love is alive and it’s making me sing
I could fly wanna cry want the whole world to know
We are together come on baby lets go

And if it’s to be spoken we’ll fall upon the pain
Spat it out true devotion is all we need to say

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
I wanna tell the world I’m giving it all to you
Let’s make the headlines loud and clear
The best thing suddenly happened when you are here
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

Let’s make the headlines true this time
There’s no hiding from this magical state of mind
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
Let’s make the headlines
Cause I’m giving it all
I’m giving it all to you

Mistaken Identity

Noong October 26, nadukot ang fone ko. Habang ako'y nag-aabang ng FX na masasakyan. Kung sino man siya, sana natulungan ko siya. Pero good luck sayo, ipapablock ko yang fone ko sa NTC! Malas nya! (kung siya ang gumagamit..) Malas ng binentahan nya (pag nabenta nya sa iba!) Pakasaya ka/kayo.. May 15 days pa kayo para gamitin yan!

Saan dyan ang mistaken identity? Wala pa kasi. Nagmamadali? May taxi bang nakaabang?

Noong gabi, I met up with friend. Medyo late na rin nakauwi. Alam mo naman sa Quezon Ave pag mga 12 na. Nagkalat ang mga ate mong maghilig mamulot. mga pick-up stick gurls.. Gurls = Badiday! Dun ako nag-aabang ng jeep pa Lawton. Near Welcome Rotonda kami. Ng biglang may dumaan na SUV. Tangina! Napagkalaman ba naman akong pokpok! To think magkaiba kami ng outfit ng mga ate mo ah. Hindi ako naka-puke shorts or naka-skirt! Sobrang parang slow motion ang pangyayari. Grabe. Sobrang narerecall ko siya in details. Sobrang ang sakit ng loob ko nun. Ung parang sinaksak ka! Shit. I have nothing against sa mga ate ko naman. Kung dun ba sila masaya, go! Hindi naman ako nagpapakain sa kanila diba? Nakakainis lang ung mga tao!

Mahirap palang maging bading na nag-aabang ng sasakyan paauwi.

Theater Talk with Floy Quintos

<--- That's her (her talaga diba?), the yoga instructor Floy Quintos. Ching! Naka-lotus position talaga. Very Buddhist. Hindi naman ata siya Buddhist, ndi ko yun nabasa sa binigay na handouts about his life. Sabi nga nya, "Yan alam nyo na 46 na ako!" Hindi halata ah.

The talk obviously was about theater (naman, the title!). Floy (first name basis diba?) discussed the need for theater, why do we need to appreciate it, how to critique a play/production (elements of the play, etc.) and how bloggers can help the industry.

Nakakatuwa yung mga anecdotes and kwento nya about sa mga production na he did and yung mga napanuod nya. Honestly, ZsaZsa was the last production I've seen (except for AA's plays, of course). Kaya wit talaga me maka-relate sa Romvlvs. Mega asks si Direk Floy sa mga bloggers kung ano bang plays ang napanuod chu chu chu chu. Dead ma ang majority. Pero ng sinabi ang magic words, "ZsaZsa Zaturnah!" Yan mega talk tv ang mga tao. Galak na galak talaga ang lahat. Nabuhayan ng pag-asa.

Flash back: Hindi talaga dapat ako kasama sa kasiyahang iyon. May prior engagement kasi ako (celebrity?!). Eh na-cancel the day before this, so mega register ako. Nakita ko ang confirmation sa email ko, ngunit na-delete ko dahil sa Junk Mail pumasok. So wit ko alam kung ano na. Email akech kay Migs. Sabi niya he'll wait for my confirmation. Naka-email akech ng confirmation ko pero late na. Tapos ndi nadukutan pa ako ng fone nung morning (26th), so good luck diba? Hindi ko talaga marereceive ang tawag ng confirmation. So sa day mismo ng event, I texted Jhey. He gave me Gibbs's number. Yun tapos everything else is history. Chos!

Going back. Sa talk na ito, narealize ko na kulang pa ang kaalaman ko sa teatro. Dapat na talaga akong manuod muli ng mga produksyon. Dami kong namimiss na bagay bagay. Natapos ang talk, raffle na! Diba taray?! At ang unang tinawag sa raffle ay si RICHARD RAYMOND. Nakakaloka!!!! Nanalo akech ng CCP bag. Pero ang bongga ang ang effort na CD from Gibbs. Major burning talaga. Gosh. "Ang minsan ang minahal ay ako..."

Lafangan moment na sa rooftop. Chika chika with people. Siyanga pala, si Ederic nga pala ang partner ko sa sharing moment! Chika chika. Picture picture. Nag-coffee after sa Baang. Kasama namin si James, our new found friend!

Thanks sa organizers ng event. Pinoycentric. MGG. Gibbs. Congrats! Next time ulit!

UMPOG SA PADER

(click the picture para makita yung ginagawa ng pix)

ganyan ang gusto kong gawin sa sarili ko at this very moment.
i-umpog ang ulo sa pader!
in short, gusto kong matauhan.

kelan ba tayo dapat matauhan?
pag hindi na kayang magtiis?
pag labis nang nasasaktan?
pag hindi mo na kaya?
actually, LAHAT.

some years ago pa nga dapat ako natauhan.

choice ko naman na matauhan diba?

pero i chose not to.

well, kinaya ko
(ulol! sino niloko mo?)
well, tiniis ko
(tiniis mo talaga!)
well, pinilit ko
(tanga ka kasi!)

putang ina!

TANGA na kung TANGA!

pucha! ang sakit sakit na! mas kakayanin ko pa ang sakit ng pagkakaumpog sa pader kaysa sa sakit na nararamdam ng puso ko ngayon!

hindi na kasi dapat humantong pa sa ganito eh.
hindi ko na dapat pinagpatuloy pa.
matagal ko na dapat itong pinatay.

mali, dapat siguro sariling puso ko na lang ang pinatay ko!

akala ko naubos na ang mga luha ko dati pa.

akala ko naiiyak ko na ang lahat.

meron pa pala.

hindi ko alam why i chose this.
hindi ko alam bakit pinili kong masaktan.
hindi ko alam bakit pinili ko pang magmahal.

naalala ko tuloy..
SIYA: hindi kasi puso ang ginagamit sa pagmamahal.
AKO: kung hindi puso, bakit masakit to! (pointing to my heart)

pagkatapos kong i-post to,
matatauhan na kaya ako?

sana.

Piolo and Sam

(The Saga Continues)

Alam naman nating lahat na thanks to Adobe Photoshop ang larawang ito. Ngunit hindi tungkol dyan ang postsina ko.

Wit talaga nag-isistopchina ang tsimaks tungkol ditey kela Piolo at Sam.

Ngayon namanchi, ang "date" nilang dalawa sa Sofitel na na-sightchung ni Manay Lolit Solis. If I may quotable quote her, "Magkadikit yong pisngi 'tapos bumubulong 'yong isa dun sa tenga nung isa." Congratulations to Manay.

Nang lumabas ang balitang itey sa column ni Manay, todo labas ng statements of the year ang dalawang involve. Si Piolo, according to Timex, eh may pictorial ala America's Next Top Model with noted fashion photographer, Raymund Isaac. Xempre, may I say din si Angel Locsin na mission impossible na nandun si Piolo sa Sofitel kasi magka-joma ang dalawa sa nasabing pictorial. Itech naman si Sam, through his manager (akala ko nga maglalabas ng statement ang Swift Hotdog eh), eh nsa Essentuals Toni & Guy ang Sam at nagpaparlor!

Sa makashuwid, ang lumalabas, "two places at the same time" ang drama nitong dalawa. hmm. panalo ang super powers nila ah. or may magaling silang impersonator dalawa. at take note, wit lang magaling na impersonator, makyoman pa! sa sofitel nagdedate eh.

Sa kwentong ito, may nagsisinungaling obviously. 2 versus 1 ang drama. Sinong kampo krame ang nagsesay ng trulala? Sinech naman ang liar liar go to hell.

Sabi nga ni Manay, nagtataka daw siya bakit biglang bigamus na ang issue paper. Nagkwento lang naman daw siya ng na-sight nya. Bakit parang ang OA daw ng reaksyon ng kabilang panig? Bigla akong nagmonologue at sinabi ko, "Oo nga naman."

Kelan matatapos itech? Or ang mas dapat na tanong, "Kelan sila aamin?" Hahaha.

In all fairness, kung sila talaga, why not diba? Eto na ang loveteam na kakabog sa lahat ng loveteam!

Realization

Everyday, we are faced with choices/options.
Should we choose this or that?
Is this better than that?
Or is it the other way around?

Sometimes, we can decide right there and then.
But sometimes, it takes us days/months/years.

Recently, I've come to my senses.
I know now what I want.

Ngayong gabi ko lang ako nakapagdesisyon.
Matagal-tagal rin bago ito.

Mas bet ko ang Chicken McDo kaysa sa Jollibee Chicken Joy!

Pag late na kasi ako nakakauwi,
at pag sinusundo me ni pudang or mudang,
lagi akong nagtatake-out.

Laging McDo ang natatake-out ko kasi yun ang on the way.
Pero dahil takam na takam na ako sa chicken joy, Jollibee kami nagtake-out.

Dun ko narealize nung kinakain ko na siya sa bahay na mali ako ng desisyon.
Hindi na ito ang chicken joy na kinalakihan ko.
Hindi na siya malinamnam.
Hindi na siya malasa.

Mas masarap na para saakin ang Chicken McDo.

Pwede pa lang magbago ang panlasa ng isang tao noh?
To think, Jollibee gurl ako simula pagkabata ah.

ANG TANONG..
Kayo, ano mas bet nyo?
Chicken McDo or Jollibee Chicken Joy pa rin?

Ang Taba Ko!

Wala naman ata saatin na choice ang maging mataba.
Kahit anong sabihin natin, hindi maganda ang mataba.

Kaya nga ako nag-didiet, kasi gusto kong pumayat.
Hindi naman ako mataba, gusto ko lang pumayat pa ng onti.
Pero gusto ko kumain.
Kaya ang diet ko, yung no carb diet.
You can eat all you want, basta walang carb.
Pag ganun kasi, hindi ko pinaparusahan ang sarili ko.

Meron naman, exag ang pagpapayat.
Kagaya nitong si Isabelle Caro.

Yan ang famous campaign ng Nolita, Italian clothing brand and designer.
Marami siyempre ang naloka dito.
Backed by the Ministry of Health naman pala tong ad na ito kaya pala mapangahas ang Nolita na ito.

Please also watch this..

Nasight nyo ang boobang ni ateng?

Gusto nyo pa bang pumayat?
Ako OO.
Pumayat naman eh, hindi maging KITE!

Buddhism in Daily Life

Human Revolution

Buddhism is characterized by an emphasis on the possibility of inner transformation--a process of bringing forth our full human potential. There is a common perception that the discipline and focus necessary for such a process requires a set of ideal circumstances not available to most. Nichiren Buddhism, however, teaches that it is only by squarely facing the challenges that confront us amidst the harsh contradictions of society that we can carry out the task of changing our own lives and the world for the better.

"Human revolution" is the term used by second Soka Gakkai President Josei Toda to describe a fundamental process of inner transformation whereby we break through the shackles of our "lesser self," bound by self-concern and the ego, growing in altruism toward a "greater self" capable of caring and taking action for the sake of others--ultimately all humanity.

As SGI President Daisaku Ikeda explains: "There are all sorts of revolutions: political revolutions, economic revolutions, industrial revolutions, scientific revolutions, artistic revolutions...but no matter what one changes, the world will never get any better as long as people themselves...remain selfish and lacking in compassion. In that respect, human revolution is the most fundamental of all revolutions, and at the same time, the most necessary revolution for humankind."

The question of how to change in a positive direction is one which has spawned countless theories, religions and publishing empires. Certainly, self-discipline and effort can enable us to make positive change, for example by starting to exercise regularly. But the willpower required is often hard to maintain; our self-control may slip at a crucial moment because we have not addressed the underlying, inner causes of our behavior.

Human revolution is the work of transforming our lives at the very core. It involves identifying and challenging those things which inhibit the full expression of our positive potential and humanity. Nichiren Buddhism is based on belief in a pure, positive and enlightened condition of life which exists equally within all people. This life state of "Buddhahood" is characterized by the qualities of compassion, wisdom and courage which enable us to create something of value from any situation. Nichiren realized that the deepest process of change and purification takes place when we bring forth this state, and he taught the practice of chanting "Nam-myoho-renge-kyo" as the direct and immediate means for accessing and experiencing it.

This Buddha nature expresses itself in concrete ways. First, we gain the conviction that our life contains limitless possibilities and a profound sense of our human dignity. Second, we develop the wisdom to understand that things that we previously thought impossible are in fact possible. And third, we develop a powerful vitality that allows us to tackle our problems with a sense of inner liberation. We are thus empowered to pursue our own human revolution, striving to improve our "self" from yesterday to today and making the "self" of tomorrow better still.

In some traditions of Buddhism, interpretations of the law of cause and effect can encourage a focus on negative past causes. The obstacles and challenges encountered in life may be seen as requiring lifetimes of effort to "clean up." The message of the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren Buddhism is that through faith and practice we can reveal Buddhahood: our highest, most enlightened state of life right now, just as we are. This enlightened wisdom enables us to grasp the reality that circumstances which may seem the most unfortunate, be it seemingly incurable illness or bereavement, can actually provide the best opportunities for tackling our human revolution and the impetus for the greatest personal growth.

When we look beyond our personal concerns and take action for the sake of others, this process is strengthened and accelerated. An experience which previously seemed like an unjust burden can become the key to finding the purpose of our lives, as we learn how to help others struggling in a similar situation.

This individual process of human revolution is the very key to sparking change on a global scale. For, as Daisaku Ikeda writes, "A great human revolution in just a single person will help achieve a change in the destiny of a nation and, further, will cause a change in the destiny of all humankind." Taking responsibility for transforming our own lives is the first step toward creating a human society based on compassion and respect for the dignity of all people's lives.

Mooncake Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival (Simplified Chinese: 中秋节; Traditional Chinese: 中秋節; pinyin: zhōngqiūjié), also known as the Moon Festival, is a popular East Asian celebration of abundance and togetherness, dating back over 3,000 years to China's Zhou Dynasty. In Malaysia and Singapore, it is also sometimes referred to as the Lantern Festival or "Mooncake Festival", which is just the same as "Mid-Autumn Festival" but with different names.

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month of the Chinese calendar (usually around mid- or late-September in the Gregorian calendar), a date that parallels the Autumn Equinox of the solar calendar. This is the ideal time, when the moon is at its fullest and brightest, to celebrate the abundance of the summer's harvest. The traditional food of this festival is the mooncake, of which there are many different varieties.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the two most important holidays in the Chinese calendar (the other being the Chinese Lunar New Year), and is a legal holiday in several countries. Farmers celebrate the end of the summer harvesting season on this date. Traditionally, on this day, Chinese family members and friends will gather to admire the bright mid-autumn harvest moon, and eat moon cakes and pomeloes together.

Accompanying the celebration, there are additional cultural or regional customs, such as:

Eating moon cakes outside under the moon
Putting pomelo rinds on one's head
Carrying brightly lit lanterns
Burning incense in reverence to deities including Chang'e
Planting Mid-Autumn trees
Lighting lanterns on towers
Fire Dragon Dances

Oh Holy "Shit" Night

Oh Holy night, the stars are brightly shining.
The -BER months have already started.
It's christmas soon.
Pero hindi yun ang kwento ko.

Tauhan:

1. Akech - ang pinakamaganda (maaaring di tunay na pangalan)
2. Karen - ka-org ko (maaaring di tunay na pangalan)
3. Esta - schoolmate (maaaring di tunay na pangalan)
4. Kuya - BS nursing
5. Ate - isang UST-AB girl
6. Manang 1 - kasama sa jeep
7. Manang 2 - taga-Lawton

Lugar:

Jeep at Lawton CR

Kuwento:

Galing kami UST.
Sumakay ng jeep pa puntang Lawton.
Nasa left side kami ni Karen, Esta (hindi ko alam na kasabay pala namin siya) at Ate.
Nasa right naman si Kuya.
Katabi ko pala si manang 1.

Chika-chika lang kami ni Karen sa jeep.
Pag-akyat namin ng tulay ng Quiapo, BAG! (ndi yung lalagyan ah.. sound effects yan!) May tumapon sa mga tao sa jeep.

Ano ito?
Ito ba ay: a) tubig, b) putik, c) bato or d) none of the above.
Ang sagot ay D) none of the above, sa kadahilanang ang tumapon saamin lahat sa jeep ay, TAE. Yes you read it right, TAE. Feces, Manure, Shit!

Akala ko, tae lang ng ibon yung dumapo kay Karen, WIT!
Blo-e pala! Ang kyongking sa jeep!
Ako naman, I had my "fair" share of shit, meron lang akong spot.
Si Esta naman, meron sa hair and sa likod.
Si Ate naman, ang daming sho-e sa hair!

At ang nagwagi sa gabing iyon, ay walang iba kundi si KUYA!
Siya talaga ang savior ko.
Bkt?
Dahil sinalo nya lahat ng para dapat ay saakin!
sa right fez nya dumapo ang mga tae.
gosh! para siyang sinampal ng tae.
At ano ang sabi ni Manang 1 sa kanya (fyi, hindi pala natamaan si Manang 1),
"Ang dami mong tae sa buhok!"
Nampucha si Manang 1.
Ako habang nandidiri ang lahat sa pangyayari, siyempre ako din, tawa lang ako ng tawa.

Bumama ang lahat ng biktima sa Lawton kasi nandoon ang CR.
Go! Wash galore na ang lahat ng tao.
Si Manang 2, tangina! Ako pa ang nasisi kung bakit kami naganun.
Sabi pa nya, "Eh bakit kasi doon kayo dumaan?"
Ay puta ka Mamang 2, walang ibang daan dun!
Tulay nga eh! Putek!

Ng maayos ng lahat, sumakay na kami ng FX papuntang Las Piñas.
Tawanan galore.
Hanggang sa bahay.
Hanggang sa pagsulat ko ng entry na ito.

Oh, holy shit!

May gusto lang akong sabihan sa mga mal-edukado, punyetang mga batang yagit na yan..

Putanginang mga batang yagit na yan!
Mga masasama ang ugali!
Leche.
Mahihirap!
Patay gutom!
Dukha!
Sugpuin!
Patayin!

This Post Comes with A WARNING.

CLUE: Kepyas!

Naloka ako sa na-encounter sa isang blog. Isang bagay na never kong bibilhin at gagamitin. Kahit libre pa yan. Isang siyang pabango, pero hindi siya pabango. Scent kung baga. Pero hindi mo siya gagamitin as pabango. Lalagay mo lang sa hand mo tapos amoy amoyin mo lang. Ano ito?

Ito ay.. VULVA Original!
Pangalan palang kinikilabutan na ako. Lalo na siguro pag nakita nyo ang mga ad nito. Good luck talaga.

Ayokong maglagay ng mga pictures dito patungkol sa produkto. Lagi kasing may bilat na kasama sa picture na naka-topless. Hay panoorin nyo na lang ang video? (Thanks to Chuckie Dreyfus)

So, bibili ka ba nyan?

Buti pa sa mga bading madali at mura lang makakuha ng scent na ganyan noh?! Kahit sa available siya. May variation na ngayon ng scents to choose from. Pwede ka pang maglinis! Kaya, buy na! Sabi nga ni AiAi, "Rampa Na!" (sayang hindi available yung commercial with AiAi)

Mali ba ako? Zonrox lang ang bagay na alam ko na amoy sha-mez!

Salon

Parlor. Barberia. Pagupitan. Kung ano man ang tawag mo, kebs na! Kakapagupit ko lang kasi ulit nung Sunday. Simula ng magka-Bench Fix Salon, dun na ako lagi nagpapagupit. P185.00 lang ang pagupit. Lahat na ata ng bading, bi-sexual, you name it nagpapagupit dun. May mga straight cute guys kahit papaano. Hindi ako choosy sa stylist, kahit sinong available, carry na (ayoko lang talagang maghintay). So, I never get the same haircut (though isa lang ang hair style).

Sidenote:

Sa movie na "Brokenhearts Club", gay film siya, therapy ang tawag nila pag pumupunta sila sa salon. Kasi dun nila na-vevent out sa mga hairdresser yung mga hinanakit nila sa mundo. Para may kausap ka ring psychologist/psychiatrist.

Ewan ko ba? Sa mga parlor-parloran siguro magagawa mo yan. Pero sa Bench, ewan ko ba? Alam mong chikadora kasi yung mga hairstylist kaya pag kinakausap mo sila, alam mong drawing lang ang lahat. At tsaka, hindi mo sila makakausap ng matagalan, kasi madaming customer. At dahil dun, palipat-lipat sila. Haggard diba? Pero nagagawa pa rin nila naman ng maayos yung work nila.

Ganyan ang style, design, mostly ng Bench Fix Salon. Hindi abot paa ang mirror, so makikita mo yung lower part ng mga tao sa kabilang side. (Hindi tungkol sa nakita kong "ari" ang dahilan ng post ko na ito!) Nakakatawa kasi parang ang illusion dun, sayo yung upper part (na nakikita mo sa salamin), yung ibaba, dun sa katapat mo. Eto na. Dahil nga sa nakikita ko yung nasa tapat ko. Pero wit ko know and fez ah. Habang ginugupitan ako, nagtataka yung hairstylist. Ngiwi kasi ako ng ngiwi. Akala tuloy nya, hindi ko nagugustuhan ang pang-gugupit nya. Pero naintindihan nya na kung bakit ganun ang reaksyon ko. Ang bilat na nasa tapat ko, nakataas ang isang paa at nag-gugupit ng kuko! Nakakaloka! Hindi na lang siya nagpa-manicure dun! Kung namamahalan siya sa manicure dun, eh di sana pinagpaliban nya muna yung pag-gugupit niya ng kuko. Ang malalala, ang mga kalat na kuko (na isang buo ah, yung walang sira na paggupit), nasa sahig kasama ng mga buhok. Eto lang nasabi ko, "kadire!"

Guidance in Daily Life

The Daishonin teaches the meaning of true happiness and the true purpose of life. Fame and momentary glories are no more than illusions. True happiness lies in cultivating the great state of Buddhahood within one's life. This is life's true purpose. By chanting daimoku, we can change all of our sufferings into the ingredients for attaining a Buddha's lofty state of life. - Daisaku Ikeda

Thalia

Who could forget Thalia? At sino ba ang sisira sa ala-ala ni Thalia? (Later, to be discussed). She was such a phenomenal hit sa Pilipinas. May kilala ang name na Thalia as an actress kaysa sa original meaning ng salitang ito na isa sa mga Muses (Muse of Comedy) ng Ancient Greek Mythology. Sa isang website pa nga, nakalagay dun na ang third meaning ng Thalia ay siya. Minsan lang may taong super naging kilala sa kanyang namesung.

Nang unang ipalabas ang MariMar dito, walang inggay itong ginawa kasi siguro sa RPN 9 lumabas. Luckily, I was channel surfing at nakita ko yung palabas sa Ch. 9. Ay neng, bet ko na siya nung una ko pa lang napanuod ito. makakalimot sa chest hair ni Sergio Santibañez? Hehehe.. Tapos dahil sa super success ng palabas na ito, sunod sunod na ang palabas ni Thalia. Sinong Maria Mercedes, Maria la del Barrio, at Rosalinda. Below are the video ng OBB ng bawat telenovela. Nakakatawang balikan, at for sure, alam mo pa ring kantahin ang theme song ng bawat show. Descriptions came from www.thalia.com. Cut, Paste and Edit ang ginawa ko kasi super haba. Ang mga videos ay in order of year shown, transformation ni Thalia and xempre from pinaka-chaka to pinakagwapong partner ni Thalia.

María Mercedes - 1992

In 1992, Thalía plays leading role in María Mercedes, the first of a successful and unique trilogy of soap operas where she would play poor, young girls called María.
In summary, María Mercedes turned out to be an absolute hit, and obtained the highest ratings, paralyzing Mexican TV. It definitely won Thalía the title of "Queen of Telenovelas".

Marimar - 1994

Thalía plays the leading role in "Marimar", the second soap opera of the "María" trilogy, where she is yet another peasant girl. This soap marks the beginning of Thalia's international exposure- it is distributed in 180 countries and translated in all languages, stealing the hearts of millions of fans around the World. It paralyzed TV in entire countries, such as Brazil, Mauritius, Indonesia, the Philippines and many others. It also opened new markets in Europe, Asia and the rest of South America, where she traveled to give concerts in Spanish, her native language.

María la del Barrio - 1995

In 1995, Thalía plays a leading role in "María la del Barrio", the third soap opera of the "María" trilogy. The soap opera, without a doubt, touched young and adult audiences around the world due to its innocent, entertaining and enchanting storyline. After the "María" trilogy of soap operas circled the globe, a census showed that they have been viewed by more than a billion people around the World!

Rosalinda - 1998

Thalía plays the leading role in her last soap opera, "Rosalinda", in 1998. It has been called the "Titanic" of "telenovelas" and the most-awaited soap of the century. With "Rosalinda", Thalía, the Queen of "telenovelas", secured the title of Mexico's top actress. It is Thalia's last soap opera, since she has been concentrating in her career as a singer, until she find an adequate next project.

Nagpunta pa talaga ang lola mo Pilipinas. Parang si David Pomeranz lang, dahil alam na mabenta sa Pinas, go dito at gawa ng album ang lolo mo. Ang kaibahan nila ni Thalia, hindi lang siya sa Pilipinas sikat. Chos! Who could forget her rendition of Ogie Alcasid's "Nandito Ako." Listen.

May kumakalat pang chismis na kayo super sexy itong si Thalia dahil nagpatanggal ng isang pair ng ribs. Panalo diba? Kaya nya siguro naagaw kay Maria Carey si Tommy Mottola. At naloka na lang ang lahat ng may bagong music video ang lola mo. Singing "Baby no one else ever want you like I do," while strutting.

Going back to the question, sino ang sisira sa alaala ni Thalia?
GMA 7.
I-remake ba ang Marimar?
Ang chaka.
Kayo na bahalang magdecide.

Ayokong masyadong pag-usapan ang topic na ito.

Ang cheap, parang ng show!

Nakakita na ba kayo ng babaeong rosas? Click here. Ewan kb sa pictorial for Rosalinda ni Thalia. AT least hindi basura ang nakapaligid diba? hahaha.

For zhang zhong xia

Pinilit kong pigilin ang aking damdamin..
pagkat ika’y di na dapat pang ibigin
ikaw pala’y mayroong ibang minamahal
habang ako’y sa’ting pagmamahalan lang sumugal

Akala mo ito’y malayo sa katotohanan
at ang puso mo’y nakalaan para sa akin lamang
bulong ng aking isip ay wag kang magtiwala
sigaw nang puso mo’y wag umasa sa maling akala

Hindi ko na kayang masaktan pa
hindi na maari pang ako’y gamitin na
isang sunud-sunuran sa iyong mga kagustuhan
at halos ang lahat ay ibigay ko na

Hindi ko na mapapayagan pa
ang puso mo’y paglaruan ng puso kong gahaman
ako’y iyong palayain at ‘wag mo ng ibigin
hindi ko na makakaya ang masaktan ka

‘wag mo na sanang patagalin
‘wag mo na akong linlangin

pagdurusang ito’y hindi na makakaya

Hindi ko na kayang masaktan pa (hindi makakaya)
hindi na maari pang ako’y gamitin na
isang sunud-sunuran sa iyong mga kagustuhan (isang sunud-sunuran)
at halos ang lahat ay ibigay ko na

oohh… Hindi ko na mapapayagan pa (hindi ko na kaya)
ang puso mo’y paglaruan ng puso kong gahaman
ako’y iyong palayain at ‘wag mo ng ibigin (ako’y iyong palayain)

hindi ko na makakaya ang masaktan ka..

the first time i saw the video (panget kasi yung video kaya audio nalang nilagay ko) ng song na ito (sa bus pa nga pauwi), i texted him agad sabi ko watch siya ng SOP dahil sa song angkop na angkop saamin.. xempre ako si regine, siya si ogie.. mga lines pa lang, swak na swak! nakakaiyak ang song.. super.. tska first time ko maka-encounter ng ganitong theme ng song.. may aamin bang pinaglalaruan ka lang ng puso ko kaya please stop this.. yung mga palayain factor din.. very one sided love.. ganun din saamin.. hay.. kelan ko kaya masasabing, "Hindi ko na kayang masaktan pa.."

sino siya? next time na..

RAIN

pinaka-ayoko sa lahat ang umulan..
sa kababawang rason na ayaw kong nababasa ang sapatos ko..

ayoko ko din magdala ng payong pag may ulan..
dahil, ayoko ng basang effect na dulot ng payong pag bitbit mo na siya pagtapos ng ulan..

flashback #1(naalala ko lang noong bata pa ako)

meron kasi akong raincoat and umbrella na transparent.. matching talaga ang dalawa.. hinintay ko talaga na umulan.. para magamit ko ang raincoat at payong ko! at nang umulan na, sinuot ko agad ang aking raincoat at lumabas ng bahay.. nakatayo lang ako sa labas habang umuulan suot ang aking..(sabay sabay tayo) TRANSPARENT RAINCOAT and UMBRELLA!

flashback #2(naalala ko lang noong college pa ako)

pag sakay ako ng fx at umuulan at lalo na pag nasa may window side ako, nag-iimagine ako na may mtv akong ginagawa..
ang eksena, naka-lean ako sa window habang may mga tubig na bumabagsag sa sides nito while singing, "Pangarap Ko'y Ibigin Ka".. xempre usual mtv, nag-eemote emote while singing.. tapos bababa ako ng fx (kumakanta pa rin), at pupuntang SM.. tulak-tulak ko ang shopping cart ng supermarket.. yun, dun lagi napuputol ang eksena..

pero noong mga nakaraang araw, natuwa ako sa ulan/bagyo.. dahil alam kong may problema sa water suppply sa Angat Dam.. and i know na if it rains, dadami ang tubig.. ganun lang ka simple..
pumalakpak talaga ako noong nakita ko sa news na bumalik sa normal level nito ang tubig sa Angat Dam.. salamat naman.. pero kulang pa daw ang ulan.. marami pang natutuyong palayan.. for this reason alone, gusto ko muli ng ulan.. sabi nga ng Secretary ng Department of Agriculture, " I don't need typhoon. I need monsoon rains." Choosy ka sir?

Buddhist Thoughts

Neither the pure land nor hell exists outside oneself;
both lie only within one's own heart.
Awakened to this, one is called a Buddha;
deluded about it, one is called an ordinary person.
The Lotus Sutra reveals this truth, and one who embraces the Lotus Sutra will realize that hell is itself the Land of Tranquil Light.

Hell Is the Land of Tranquil Light - WND, 456

Tribute Gone Wrong?

Usong-uso ang pagbibigay tribute lalo sa mga celebrities.
Kahit saang show merong ganyan.

Question:
When a person is given a tribute, what should be one's reaction?
a. Masaya (natural noh?! tribute nga para sayo eh)
b. Iyak galore (carry lang.. para sayo naman ito eh)
c. Bored (let the video explains itself)

This happened sa tribute ng ASAP Champions kay Lea Salonga.
Ano ba ineexpect ni Lea, nakasing galing nya ang rendition dapat?
Hmm.. Panget naman kung mag-emote ala Eponine si Sheryn sa stage diba?
I thought Sheryn did OK.
Not for Lea, I guess.

Bonus na lang tong next video na ito.
Parang commercial ng Mastercard.

(Kunyari)
Rachel Ann's gown, $200.00
Rachel Ann's earrings, $50.00
Lea Salonga's Reaction, PRICELESS!

Sa eksenang ito, sing along naman ang drama ni Lea.
Nakikisabay sa kanta echos echos.
Ngunit, datapwat, subalit nang marinig niyang hindi naabot ni Rachel Ann ang tono (5:44 sa video), kayo ng bahalang humusga kung anong ibig sabihin ng fez nya sa moment na yun!

LEA SALONGA, MALDITA! Hahaha..!

The Other Side of Imelda Marcos

Sino bang hindi na nakakakilala kay Imelda? She is known everywhere. Nakakatuwang persona at karakter si Imelda. Where there is beauty, there is Imelda. Chos!

Sa post kong ito, ndi ko tatalakayin ang mga diumano'y nagawang kasamaan (pagnanakaw, to be specific) ng pamilya Marcos dahil sa hindi naman ako political scientist major at sa mabobored lang ang mga readers kong sisters! Tatalakayin ko dito ang mga bagay na tungkol sa beauty, shoesala, ternos, alahas, at kung ano ano pang kalandian sa buhay.

Natutuwa talaga ako sa kanya.

Ang kanyang hairstyle. Siya lang ang may ganyang buhok sa mga Filipina. At good luck siguro kung paano pa niya nagagawa yan. At aminin, ang blush on, blush on talaga! Theater actress sa kapal ng blush on!

At ang mga ternos (xempre ndi yang suot nya sa picture)nya! Hay, noong napanuod ko ang documentary film tungkol kay Imelda, isa lang ang nasabi ko sa sarili ko, "kung meron man akong gustong hingin kay Imelda, wala ng iba kundi ang kanyang mga limpak limpak na terno." (eh ndi ko pa alam ang tungkol sa mga alahas ni Imelda noong mga panahong ito!)

Ang shoesala collection ng lola mo. Nakadisplay na sa Shoe Museum sa Marikina. Majority naman kasi daw ng shoes niya gawang Marikina. Diba proudly pinay ang lola mo? Hindi naman daw pala 3,000 pairs of shoes ang meron siya, 1,060 lang naman daw kasi. At simple lang ang lola mo, gusto lang nyang shoes ay pump shoes.

Eto na ang kinababaliwan ko sa lahat dahil kay Imelda - ang kanyang mga alahas. Noong una kong nakita yan sa tv, ang sabi ko, "punyeta!". Nakakaloka. Roumeloites collection ang tawag sa kabuuan ng alahas ni Imelda. Maloloka sa laki ng mga bato! Ilan pa lang ito sa collection ng lola mo. Mga heirloom daw itech lahat. Hmm. Akala ko wit naman makyoman ang pamilya niya. Rags to riches nga ang kwento nya diba? So kung heirloom itech. Hmm. Un na! Wala daw siyang binili kahit isa mga yan. Yung iba heirloom nga "daw" at yung iba regalo lang sa kanya! Alam nyo ba gaano kamahal itech? Ang isang pebble daw (sa earrings for example) ay pwede ng mag-fund ng isang rural development project! punyeta diba?! at yung iba dyang alahas at worth 1,000,000.00 (ewan ko kung peso o dollars) noong 1986 pa! Pero wit na sa kanya ang mga alahas, sequestered na. Hay. Sana bago man ito nagetlak ng gobyerno ay nabigyan man lang ako ni Imelda kahit isa lang. Sana naipuslit ang kahit isa sa mga collections na ito. Hindi naman ako maarte eh. Kahit ano lang tatanggapin ko. Kahit na itong bracelet lang na ito (see picture). Diba? Isang buong batong malaki ng diamonds!!! Nakakaloka! Oo nga pala, nagventure na nga rin pala si Imelda sa jewelry business. Ang kanyang Imelda Collection. Kaya lagi siyang nasa 168 at nagbubuysung ng mga murayrang gems etc. Yup, ndi tunay ang jewelry na binebenta lang. Yung mga parang nasa Greenhills tiangge lang ganun. Pero mga $100 ++ din ang halaga. Basahin nyo ang authenticity ek ek sa bawat alahas niya. Click here.

commercial muna.. ang haba ng nito..

nakakatawa lang..

spoof sa kanya sa isang American TV.

Click here. (disabled kasi yung embed chuva nya!)

At isa pang gusto ko kay Imelda ay ang mga quotable quotes nya. Kaiiba ang kanyang paniniwala sa buhay. Totoo naman kasi rin ang mga sinasabi niya. Sarcastic minsan pero kung iisipin mo, "oo nga ganun talaga."

"I'm like Robin Hood. I rob the rich to make these projects come alive... not really rob. It's done with a smile." -- in Fortune, 1979
(ganyan ang pagnanakaw! chos!)

"It is terribly important to do certain things, such as wear overembroidered dresses. After all, the mass follows class. Class never follows mass." -- cited in Ang Katipunan, October 1980
(oo nga naman.. hehehe..)

"Win or lose, we go shopping after the election."
(diba walang pakialam!)

"If you know how rich you are, you are not rich. But me, I am not aware of the extent of my wealth. That's how rich we are." -- after promising to give $800 million to poor Filipinos if she becomes president, quoted in The Philippine Daily Inquirer, March 1998 (pakibilang na lang ang drama!)

"When they see me holding fish, they can see that I am comfortable with kings as well as with paupers." -- quoted in Today, April 1998
(o, public servant talaga!)

"I was born ostentatious. They will list my name in the dictionary someday. They will use 'Imeldific' to mean ostentatious extravagance." -- cited in an Associated Press report, April 1998
(diba nasa dictionary na itech?)

"I have never been a material girl. My father always told me never to love anything that cannot love you back." -- November 1996
(naiyak ako dito..)

"As we were coming down Malacanang, Ferdinand held my hand and said, 'Imelda, this is your fault.' In shock, I asked, 'Why, Ferdinand?' He answered, 'Because you gave me a heart.'" -- on why Marcos refused to fire at the crowds on Edsa in 1986, quoted in Special Edition
(dito rin.. ang sweet!)

"It is so easy to choose the wrong word... That's why I'm so terrified by the press and even photographers. Because they are recordings, and they are permanent. Later on in history, you could be completely misunderstood because of the writings of people who may misquote you or quote you out of context. Every time I see myself, my God, I look or sound like a witch, or monster, or dragon. For example, I was called the Steel Butterfly. I am neither steel nor a butterfly. What an image! I'm neither frivolous nor insensitive." - quoted in Julio Silverio's Golden Quotations of our First Lady
(kayo talaga! oo nga naman! ndi nya siya steel or butterfly!)

"Bakit mayroong mga Pilipino na naninira kay Presidente at kay First Lady? Hindi ba nila alam na kami ang Tatay at Nanay ng Bayang Pilipino? Kung kamote ang Tatay at kung kamote ang Nanay, kamote ang Pilipino! Ang kamote ay hindi nag-aanak ng kamatis." -- at the Le Baron Hotel in San Jose, California, 1985
(tinalo ang "ndi bumubunga ng santol ang mangga! basta ganun!)

"If you're a little presentable, you're called frivolous. Beauty is frivolity it seems, but beauty is love. You can never have an excess of what is democratic, just and beautiful. You can't say a woman is overly beautiful but you can say someone is overly ugly. It is against religiosity to be surrounded by ugliness."
(kawawa naman sila.. si Imelda na nagsabi nyan ah..)

"People say I'm extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage? Beauty is love made real and the spirit of love is God. Only a crazy man wants to be surrounded by garbage, and I'm not crazy just yet."
(so crazy pala ang mga basurero? hmm..)

"Our opponent [Cory Aquino] does not put on any make up. She does not have her fingernails manicured. You know gays. They are for beauty. Filipinos who like beauty, love and God are for Marcos." - on why Ferdinand Marcos would win the gay vote, January 1986
(mga bakla! vote for Marcos!)

"I hate ugliness. You know I'm allergic to ugliness." -- quoted in the Philippine Daily Inquirer, August 1999
(gusto ko rin nga ganitong sickness!)

"If Imelda can make it, everybody else can make it." -- cited in an Associated Press report, April 1988
(un na!)

Imelda is such an icon. Dapat siya ang ginawa ni GMA na head ng NCCA. Diba siya naman nagpatayo ng PICC, CCP, Folk Arts, Film Center, etc.? Ang saya lang. In closing, watch and listen sa video niya (actually spoof ito ulit)..
