I have only been aware of Britain's Got Talent just recently when our very own, Madonna Decena, graced their stage and literally blew the judges away. Now, from a looks of it, the Filipina Diva has got herself a competition in the person of Charlie Green.Charlie is a 10 year old boy and would you believe he likes the genre of Frank Sinatra and the likes. He is a product of a multicultural love

Watch out for the Next Pinoy Breakout Star?

2008-04-24T22:16:00.002+08:00

Britain's Got Talent made Simon Cowell a household name even before American Idol. Many have tried to get past him but failed. Some wept gallons of tears, some fell to their knees, some tried to smart talk him but all their efforts seemed a little futile. In the newest edition of the show, a brave single mom named Madonna ( ironic isn't it?) Decena, who by the way is a Filipina, not only wowed

Why Carly?

I admit I am not a big fan of her, but honestly, she sure got the most powerful voice in the competetion. She can belt out any note like nobody's business. She can take on any song as if it were her own. Sure, he may shriek like an angry banshee at times but she has delivered most of the times.It just makes me really wonder why she was booted out of American Idol today?Was it because of her lack

Looks like Pantene is gearing towards younger but nonetheless, equally famous models. As of late, I have seen the new commercial and it now stars Judy Ann Santos and Claudine Barretto. For me, nothing much has changed really. Except for the changes in the actors, Pantene has lived up to their advocacy towards celebrating beautiful Filipina women.

New Coke Commercial

2008-04-06T10:10:00.003+08:00

This is another beautiful concept from our advertising friends. Although some may disagree with as it may be a bit blasphemous, I find the cinematography and the execution well done. I hope a lot of commercials of this caliber would be seen on the boob tube in the days, months and years to come.

I do not find this commercial hilarious - not the type that would have me rolling on the floor laughing. Yet, it is endearingly cute that I thought of sharing it through my blog. The genius behind this would be lauded for a well thought-of commercial that exudes ingenuity and utter uniqueness. It is a very rare gem!Without much ado as I have a lot of catching up to do with my posts, enjoy the

Except for the torrential rains crashing through our roof, Monday, November 19, would have proved to be uneventful (you just don’t know what eventful to me is).It was more than the usual morning- at least so I thought. I fought the lingering thought of not going to duty (as part of my RLE requirements) drawing me into what seemed like a tug-of-war. Again, the good student in me prevailed and

Poker for me is a very intricate game. It requires a lot of thinking, bluffing and formulating strategies to make your hand look as if it is better than a royal flush. Thus, the term poker-faced was coined. It is trickery at its best because you make people believe you are the luckiest person alive despite being the opposite.This has made my fascination for the game grew into immense proportions.

A first-grade teacher, Ms Neelam was having trouble with one of her students the teacher asked,"Boy, what is your problem?"Boy answered, "I'm too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the third-grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third-grade too!"Ms. Neelam had enough. She took Boy to the principal's office. While Boy waited in the outer office, the teacher

The Mind of An Alcoholic

2007-10-14T13:01:00.000+08:00

Away from the rustle and bustle of the city, I confine myself in the refuge of my home. Here, I woke up to the twittering birds of the morning, to the soothing feel of the morning dew and to gracious smell of home-cooked meals. I would have been totally satisfied except that every day of my stay, I wake up to the scent of tequila, vodka and oh my favorite whisky. My mind fights the thought of

I own a Motorola L7 right now and the only song stored in it is a favorite by singer/songwriter Jason Mraz.Eversince remedy, I have kept track of all the songs this talented guy records and there was never a single time that he was not able to deliver.He has this very unique style of tongue-play. Whenever, by chance, I sing any of his songs I am left breathless.In honor to one of the artists I

De Niro Sealed it All - A Stardust Review

2007-10-12T22:46:00.000+08:00

As Christmas approaches, the genre of movies being shown have magically turned to fantasy. All to the happiness of frustrated warlocks like me. From unicorns to ogres or from giants to dwarfs, they all seem welcome attractions and distractions. Hehe!Last Wednesday, I was lucky enough to finally get a chance to watch my much-anticipated movie on the big screen on its first day. I just came off

Shi**y Experience

2007-10-12T21:11:00.000+08:00

For the past days, I have been contemplating on changing the blogger template. Being the new blogger that I am, I ended up utilizing as much as the blogger template had to offer. I've invested on learning a little HTML to somehow alleviate my ignorance. Just the basics as they say.Last night, I came upon Pyzam and it offers templates way better that what I saw in blogger. No offense to blogger,

During childhood, we express emotions so genuinely because we are untainted by personal gain. We do not manipulate people to get what we want. Although we throw tantrums but once Mama or Papa gives us the "look", we fold like a pliable sheet.In the spirit of sweetness and in memory of our childhood, I am sharing this simple video.Makes me want to become the child I was all over again!Special

Kangaroo beats Aussie Car Racers

2007-10-11T20:59:00.001+08:00

In what could have a usual car racing day in Australia, an unexpected guest racer joins in.After the gunshot signalled go, in the middle of race track turned up a galloping kangaroo. The riders, instead of getting busy fighting amongst themselves, had an extra load of work up their sleeves to ensure the poor creature survives the race track with minimal injuries.True enough, the kangaroo was

Resident Evil Never Fails Me Part 2

2007-10-11T18:17:00.000+08:00

Truly, watching Resident Evil on the big screen is both a viewing delight and an intellectual experience. Not only is it fit for the lovers of the said RPG game, but to the general viewing public. Although it would require a lot of toning down of its violent scenes to make suitable for the children.Mila was superb. Not only was she a sight to behold but she also emanated a believable expertise in

And it Struck Me

2007-10-11T07:09:00.000+08:00

I was reading a blog of another famed blogger, Migs, regarding falling in love - and how it washes everything away like a flash flood.In a world of superficiality, people do not get to appreciate the simplicity that surrounds us. Only when we are with our true love, do we get to see that the petals makes the flower jubilant with color, that the water is silent when it runs deep and the sky is

Carting at its Best

2007-10-11T04:23:00.001+08:00

I am very fond of shopping online. Apart from not going through the hassle of personally looking for an equipment and asking a sales representative regarding a product's features, the coveted object is delivered right through your doorstep should you opt for delivery (which I do).The greatest dilemma by far when visiting websites is its being user-friendly. Some sites require you to click on

I admit I am but a neophyte in the blogging world. Although I have been writing for the most part of my life, I do not know the exact process of blogging especially html. However, some fellow bloggers introduced me to to Smorty and they assured me that I will never regret it.Smorty is a service connecting advertisers with bloggers.

Vera, a fellow blogger, tagged me to list down at least six weird things about myself. I, generally, find myself weird but when it comes to thinking and pondering on stuff that make yourself obnoxiously unique, your mind play tricks on you.Now, let me start with what I think is weird but on the sane side:1. I have a very flushed face. People call me red Rey because blushing is an understatement

Falling out of LOVE?

Love’s lessonsBy Melanie Lim.I can’t claim to be a guru. But in matters of the heart, I’ve learned a thing or two.Despite what we think, men really can’t read our minds. A few have been blessed with this supernatural ability but for the rest of the mortal males, they need to be reminded to remember; they need to be told to take action.So stop expecting a surprise on your birthday or anniversary

A Hero Once Again

2007-10-07T21:09:00.000+08:00

This morning, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao, tagged as the boxing hero of the Philippines proved that he was the better in his bout between Antonio Barrera Of Mexico. I personally was not able to watch the match but as the news would say, the valiant fighters fought twelve rounds of grueling pound-per-pound body beating where in the end, the Filipino protagonist emerged victorious.All the same, it was

Resident Evil Never Fails Me Part 1

2007-10-06T22:55:00.000+08:00

I am not particularly engrossed with science fiction movies. Apart from the fact that most of them are blasphemous and atheistic, there plotlines are mostly permeated with violence and disrespect for life and property. However, I must admit that few exceptions tickle my fancy making me go past this preoccupation and generalization. These include The Matrix Trilogy, Resident Evil Series, and

30 minutes of 90's cartoons

2007-10-05T23:12:00.000+08:00

Far from the very serious tones in my previous posts, I am grateful to be able to relive my past as a child who enjoys the numerous cartoons shown on TV.I am born in the 80's but I really came to love cartoons to the core in the 90's. By that time, I was not solely dependent on what the moving caricatures depict. I could now comprehend the dialogues, integrate them with the current storylines and

Corazon Aquino a Sl*t?

2007-10-05T22:47:00.000+08:00

My newfound friend and fellow blogger, PARISUKAT of www.parisukat.com told me that another famous show American "satirical" TV show - "The Daily Show", has made yet another infuriating remark on a well-respected Filipino icon: former President Corazon Aquino.In this particular episode, a segment involving Samantha Bee discusses the likelihood of having a first female American President (referring

On Susan of Desperate Housewives

2007-10-04T23:40:00.000+08:00

In an episode of the newest season of “Desperate Housewives”, Teri Hatcher’s character Susan Mayer made a remark hinting on her obvious doubt of a Filipino doctor’s capacity. It would not have to the least appalling should they have shown a flashback of her previous experience with an incompetent Filipino doctor in the show and should they have not generalized if I may quote “they are not from

I have spent days and weeks looking for this video. I was on the brink of cussing youtube for failing me. Now, finally, after almost a month of searching, I got what I wanted.I saw this commercial way before. So enjoy! Too bad for the girl here. It just goes to show you can never have it all.

80's cartoon mania

2007-09-30T21:23:00.000+08:00

We may very well remember the 80’s for those colorful tops and bottoms, hairdo’s that go wherever, and “That’s entertainment”.However, in the eyes of a child who was born in that decade, cartoon characters are far more memorable. Who would forget He-Man, She-Ra or the Ghostbusters?These cartoons may be low-budgeted compared to the digital animation of current years but still, they remind us that

Nolita and her bones

2007-09-30T18:03:00.000+08:00

What used to be a busy street in Milan, Italy played host to the giant naked picture of an anorexic woman as part of an advertising strategy of a clothing company based there. Motorists - some appalled, some somehow relieved - cannot help themselves but stare at the sad epitome of how the world views sexiness.When I saw this news on TV, I could not help but feel proud that in the cutthroat and

Siamese Turtles?

2007-09-28T22:49:00.000+08:00

I was browsing through my yahoo mail when this news caught my attention. It is currently displayed in the yahoo webpage. Who would have thought that despite the advancing age of technology, in a world where simple pictures are altered and airbrushed, a magnificent wonder of nature would sprout? In the simple town of Norristown, Pennsylvania, a conjoined or siamese turtle with two heads, two pairs

Good Omens - A Book to Beat

2007-09-28T21:30:00.000+08:00

I am very hard person to please and I don't laugh at random jokes cracked by anyone. While browsing for a good book to buy early this month (National Bookstore was on sale), I chanced upon this crafty, comedic book of some sorts: Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchet. It makes the Apocalypse hilarious rather than scary. I admit, whenever I hear of the apocalypse, it runs shivers to my

Imagine your child a hundred shades darker than you are? and when you look at the mother nor the father, they are fair skinned? How would you react? This is what is depicted in this filipino commercial that had its run in TV in 2004.
