where to?

help, where's the best place, just in Luzon or kahit the entire pinas or sige na nga kahit somewhere overseas na malapit lang, to spend the Holidays? Mga 4 days... hit me up with your best suggestions. (sana may magreact!) nahihirapan na kasi ako magisip!

P.S. Family friendly/conducive location ah!

:) thanks!


ang traffic at kung bakit hindi sumisikat si charice sa pilipinas?

paalala: ang aking mga isinulat dito ay aking mga sentimyento de asukal. magustuhan mo man o hindi (tagalog ng "like it or not), wala ka ng magagawa. :P beh!

I. ANG TRAFFIC bow...

Manila City, paglampas ng SM Manila, hindi ko alam yung kalsada eh.

Halimaw ang traffic sa Maynila! Halos 3 oras kaming nasa kalsada. Aru! Buti nalang hindi ako ang nagmamaneho kundi wala na kaming kotse. Papa, Papa, salamat ang mahinahon kang nagmaneho kahit ilang beses akong napa-f*ck dahil muntik ata tayo makabangga!

Sa mga LGU, nanawagan po ako, galingan pa po natin ang sistema ng ating trapiko upang mapadali ang ating buhay at hindi sumakabilangbuhay. Tandaan, ang taong mabilis magmaneho, malamang kailangan ng mag-cr. (ang corny ko!)

un lang.

II. Bakit nga ba hindi sumisikat si Charice sa Pilipinas?

Bakit nga ba? Kung sa ibang parte ng bilog na mundo eh kulang nalang sambahin si Charice tuwing siya'y kakanta, bakit nga ba sa madlang people ng Pilipinas ay hindi siya pumapatok kahit mapatid na ang litid niya?

Sa tingin ko kasi...

1. Isa siyang normal na biriterang Pilipina. Hindi naman masyadong naiiba ang boses niya sa mga LA Diva - Jonalyn Viray, Aicelle and Maricris, Sarah G., Rachelle Anne Go, at sa iba pang amateur biriteras. Di hamak na malayo siya kay Regine V. Kaya nga siya natalo sa contest na sinalihan niya dahil hindi siya "up to par". Naman! Kung sa ibang bansa'y unique siya, dito'y hindi, kumbaga, hindi siya "endangered species" dito tulad ni pokwang. Isa lamang siya sa napakaraming biritera. Pero magaling pa din siya no, sige nga, ikaw nga ang bumirit ng bumirit ng sobrang nakanganga, makakaya mo ba?

2. Kung kagandahan din lang ang paguusapan, sus!, malamang, ewan ko nalang. Ganito nalang, ang Pilipinas, ika nga nila, very visual, ang panget, hindi tumatagal ang magaganda, kahit walang talento, ipipilit sa kahit anong paraan. Tama ako dyan. Walang kontrahan! Magparetoke ka man, ganun pa din, hindi pa din uubra. Ano na nga ba ang nangyari sa mga hindi pinagpalang artista sa ating bansa, na-extinct na sila diba? diba? Pero, on a lighter note, hinding hindi mo naman maitatanggi na si Charice ay si Charice kapag nakita mo siya, sa hugis ba naman ng mukha niya, sino ang magkakamali?

3. Kulang siya sa mass appeal. Paano nga ba sumikat ng bonggang bongga si Sarah G., Ate Shawie at Mareng Judy Anne? Kahit nasa itaas sila, lumapit pa din sila sa mga normal ng Pilipino. Tagalog ang pananalita at hindi nagpipilit mag-ingles. Pero ok din naman at natututo siya mag-ingles, tama din naman yun. Practice lang ng practice, para magkamali at maitama!

Tama na yan mga nasabi ko. Tama na! hehe.

Halata bang ayaw ko sakanya? Hindi ko ayaw si Charice. Naman! Kung mas magaling ako sa kanya kumanta, aayawan ko siya. Pero hindi eh. Salamat pa din sa kanya at nadala niya ang bandila ng Pilipinas. Pinatunayan naman niya ang kagalingan ng mga Pinoy sa pag-awit. Sablay lang ng kumanta siya ng God Bless America, diba kasi ang last line nun eh, "God Bless America, my home, sweet home". Kayo na ang humusga.

Muli, hindi sa ayaw ko siya. Inilahad ko lang ang aking mga hinuha kung bakit hindi pa siya kinakagat sa Pilipinas. Sayang!

:P

ABSCBN's 2010 Christmas Station ID

our Halloween party


this is the first of many more parties to come celebrated by us friends, me, ejay, roxy, czai and stan. Let's begin with our halloween party!

obviously, we had to "costume-ize" ourselves, now here's how we looked,

EJAY as CATWOMAN

STAN as LADY GAGA INSPIRED

ROXY as LADY DEMON

RONLI as ARIEL AND MAVERICK INSPIRED

CZAI as PEACOCK/DIYOSA NG HANGIN/FAIRY

We had good food, good music, good pictures, most of all, good time!!!

Next up, Christmas party, Gossip Girl inspired, i'll be Chuck Bass. :)

new and adjusting

ok. so i've been playing volleyball twice in the past week now. Last time I played was February of this year. Too long it has been and really, it was.

i'm playing with a new team now, since i left san beda already. My new friends from san sebastian are really accommodating though. But then again, I can't help but feel like a fish out of water since I haven't really bonded with them yet. Give me time, I'll blend in. :)

On with the volleyball diagnosis. RUSTY! SLOW! CONFUSED! At 22, i can strongly say i'm still young but in comparison to our younger opponents, with all the time they have playing, we can't just beat them convincingly. Practice, more practice, perhaps will make me and the whole team play better.

Overall, we are on the right track, playing good but not spectacular, new and adjusting.

To all my new teammates, Joseph, Anthony, Ezer, Tim, Jude, Justin, thanks for making me feel welcome! Looking forward to more hitting and floor diving! :)

post-analysis

TODAY...

6-2, 6-3 loss against nickson garcia.

As i've told nyx, this is one of those days where someone just had to give. Someone should lose and sorry that I was that someone. Sorry loss it was, but not bitter. I had my chances, took some, won some, lost more. As my efforts were winning category shy, in the end, Nyx won.

It's my first take on the shell court. Surprised because I personally think the ball moved slower. We had good rallies and good shots. I had a number of auspicious hitting moments. Literally jumping up and down, clinching fists and psyching myself to go further. Poor serves though. haha. that we have to work on. Grunting I guess really helps? haha, or should I say I'm again practicing the classic, "escalation of commitment"? Thanks to Sharapova and Serena. hehe.

I enjoyed playing today in Meralco's shell courts.. :) I think I'll be frequenting the place more. Plus scores given to their warm personnel. :) goodbye to UP's hardcourts? hmmm. i don't think so.

NICKSON!!! next time ulit! mananalo nako. hehe

P.S.

@ eileen, see you soon! excited nako to win the race!

@ cez and karla, super fun ang bonding natin sa rob ermita! swear! thanks cez! thanks karla! imy already!

Hindi Ikaw!

Hindi ikaw! Hindi ikaw ang,

- naiyak sa pag-papa-thread ng kilay!

- nakatulog only to find out na close to getting late ka nanaman!

- nagunderestimate sa ulan kanina!

- nakisakay sa BARANGAY MOBILE para makatawid sa baha!

- sumakay sa jeep at umupo kahit imaginary lang ang uupuan!

- nakiusap sa mga tao, "pwede maki-usog, kahit konti lang, kahit konti lang"!

- na-stuck sa traffic at tipong 3m/10mins ang rate ng andar!

- naglakad ng halos 3km within 10mins!

- nagutom dahil sa kamalasang sinapit!

- nakalimutan ang inaral sa sobrang pagod!

- nanghula sa true or false sa exam dahil parang true lahat!

- nagcelebrate at nagenjoy sa pagtatapos ng sem! tapos na nga ba? :)

- kumain at kumanta ng halos 3 oras at nakipagsayahan! :)

- sumayaw habang kinukunan ng video sa saliw ng stop ng spice girls! :)

- umuwi magisa ng amoy ulam pero masaya naman! :P

- nagpapasalamat sa isang araw na nagdaan at umaasang may bukas pang madudugtungan! :)

- napuyat!

Hindi ikaw yon! Hindi ikaw!

Ako un! Ako! Ako! Ako!

big thanks!

As the first term of the semester draws to a close, I would like to give my biggest thanks to a number of people who made my life easier as I walk through jagged roads... *drama!

Papa and Mama, thanks for the all the emotional and FINANCIAL support. :) Without you, malamang, wala din ako.

My brother, Ago, and sister, Joy, I know you silently believe in me, with that, I'm thankful.

To my friends, thanks for the never ending push. You all made me strive harder and believe more. Your encouragements keep me sane. :P

special mention to,

AYN, ARSEI, NICKSON - my AASA peeps, our efforts spent in the HQ will be worth it. those sleepless nights, those heart-pounding moments, those frustrating events and everything in between, i couldn't be happier and more satisfied that I was with all of you.

BANKING FRIENDS - Ellen, Jigs, Fats, Banking was funner because you guys were there! Next sem ulit!

Kotch and Karen, thanks for being so warm and nice. :)

Matet, Bheng, Aian, Romac, Anne, Mia, CRIM 2 ah! :)

Justin, my deepest thanks for always answering my questions about int. prop. :) sana pumasa tayo lahat.

PAUI!!! I wouldn't survive property without you by my side, literally and figuratively. As in.

To all my new friends, may we be friends forever. hehe.

I wish all the best for all of us. Passing grades we claim you! :)

See you all around!

"You see me better than I do"

To my profs, what you've imparted (meron man o wala) will remain in my memory banks.

BIG THANKS!
