New Moon, Movie Trip


At last, I saw the movie New Moon last Saturday, December 12. Funny because I knew that almost of you already watched it on November.

What can I say about the movie? I was kind of sad on the last part when Jacob and Edward already faced to faced with Bella. I really cried when Jacob wants Bella to choose between staying as a mortal or wants to get bitten by a vampire and being a patch on Bella's broken heart.

I don't know why but I felt the emotion of Jacob being hurt. I've never been a patch in my life. I almost got to say, "Can I have Jacob for good?"

Aga Muhlach Talked about Governance under Arroyo Administration


This is a clip I've seen in YouTube. I am just curious about Aga Muhlach's opinion. This is a video clip from Straight Talk in 2007. The language used in this conversation is Filipino so I have translated it to English so that foreigners can understand what the conversation is all about. Please see below after the video.

Mr. Aga Muhlach is a famous Filipino actor, a popular matinee idol at his teens and a product endorser.

I really agree what Aga Muhlach said about this conversation.




TRANSLATION OF THE CONVERSATION

Host: It's very rare to happen that a showbiz personality and
respected actor talks about the real situation.

Aga Muhlach: Sometimes it's sad because even though how hard
you try to make for a living, how progressive we are making
to our life, but if you look around you, you may be weakened
because of your country. It's too much, but I am really affected.

It's really hideous to see around you, you may think, how will I
save if I have no place to stay for? You have a beautiful house,
a car, what will you do with those things if there are people killing
in front of you?

How will you go out? Where will you go, you have no well-ordered
place to go here in the country? In our place, I won't know, there
are lots of money circling around, you've heard, one hundred million
or billion that are kept and stole, why is this penetrated?

What I see in this country is deterioration. The appearance, the
service, all in all, is getting ugly and uglier.

You see, it's very dirty. The system is very unpleasant and you
could see that the people are suffering.

If you're in the house, you just open the tv, you will see these
people wearing a tie, a coat. All of them are saving with their
own money.

Some are just playing blind, closing their eyes because they feel
'Who are we? Will they listen to us? Do we have something to do?
I am going to vote, is my vote has got something to do? Even
though I will vote for this person, if they really want to win, their
money will do the move, not my vote.

I feel that, honestly, it's useless because whatever you do, the
people in the higher position, whatever they wish or do are still
their command. What I mean to say is, the people knew who were
stealing, who's doing evil but nothing happened. You are just watching it,
so what are you going to do now?

Ten years ago, what do Philippines looked like? Now, it's different.
What more for another ten years? Ten years from now, what will
Philippines look like? So, where are we now?

Host: They're angry, people feel bad about it?

Aga Muhlach: People feel bad about it, it is because they have
no money, they don't have the capability, they are insecure, they
can't move, they feel that nobody listens to them. What I mean
to say, example, people of 5,000 are having a rally. It's just
5,000 compare to the people who are really in poverty.

I still believe that there is God, of course. He will fix it. I still
believe in the law of karma. To those who are doing evil, I'm sorry.
To those who are in the position, you did nothing but only to
boast like you're wise.

Host: Say it, don't be shy, STEALING.

Aga Muhlach: I mean to say, enough! Have a little pity, just a
little bit, just 10% of the stealing, give it to the poor.

Philippines has a huge land. Now, for sure, the government owns it.
I just want to imply, this government...

Host: All of the government, maybe they will mistaken you that
you're talking about a particular administration...

Aga Muhlach
: No, no, it's not, the whole, the governance. Yes,
what I mean to say, well, the person who is in the position. Even if it's
the past, the present and who ever will be the next. Who ever is in
the position right now, you were put there to fix the Philippines.

Host
: You are obviously very frustrated...

Aga Muhlach: So why are you going to take this? There's load of
money, don't tell that there's no money, that's why people are
getting mad because you say it's poverty.

Adam Lambert Kissing a Guy at AMA Performance

I've been an Adam Lambert fan since American Idol. Rumors scattered that he is gay with the racy pictures of him on the internet. I didn't believe it first but he confirmed he really is. Although I was a little bit disappointed but still supported him through the contest because I believe him with his talent. He did great performances on AI that's why I liked him.

Even though he is really open with his sexuality, I guess he is just really TOO MUCH OPEN on the American Music Awards 2009's performance. I just didn't expect him to kiss a guy on the live audience, SO MUCH MORE ON NATIONAL TELEVISION.



Why some people are in rage with Adam Lambert's kissing a keyboardist/guitarist than with Madonna/Britney Spears' Kissing?

I don't know their answers but if you ask me, here is my opinion. We all knew that Madonna and Britney Spears had a collaboration with the song Me Against the Music. They did a live performance and also kissed on stage. It was also shocking though when I saw it. They're not lesbians. During her interview with CNN on 2003, she said she never kissed on a woman before. She also said that she wouldn't do it again but maybe with Madonna. But their friendship already ended in 2006 so as the scandal just faded away. So no more kissing between them live in the future. Hehehe!

With Adam Lambert, if he already did it on AMA Performance, then there would be a chance to do it in the future. Maybe with different guys. OH COME ON! I don't want to see him, in every performance, kissing a guy. I REALLY DON'T LIKE IT. His image now is different way back on AI, the not so-really-gay. Gosh!

On American Idol, I really find Adam so sexy especially the way he interprets the song with his own rendition. He is the most talented guy among the group. But on his performance at AMA, I never find him sexy anymore. It was a kind of sexual performance, a guy to guy thing and I am not used of seeing it.

I respect gays for being gays and undeniably they love boys as much as the girls do. Kissing on public??? I think the world has really lost its conservatism.

The only conclusion I have, I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH HIM. T_T

Feel free to post your comments.

-----i am liberated in thought,
conservative in deed.

Nature Tripping

My life is getting boring. I've been busy with my job and can't find time to relax and unwind. I've always been planning for travel but I don't know which place to go. I really want to travel outside Cebu like going to Bohol, Dumaguete, Manila or Boracay but it needs great plan, money and especially with the people you want to go with or want to go with me.

Before I could go to another province, there's some place in Cebu which I haven't discovered yet. Well, there are lots of good places to search for. I really want to get close with nature and feel the fresh air.

As of now, I am still browsing the net for the best places in Cebu. ^_^ Just for my thoughts of the day.

Fergie is Like a Goddess


I am so out-of-date with the latest music of today because of my busy life. I never had the time to watch music channels where I could easily get most of the songs and on the radio, I just wonder who sing the song.

After the I Gotta Feeling fever from Black Eyed Peas, here is the new song entitled Meet Me Halfway. My sister told me this about a month ago of their music video. This is just the time that I logged in to YouTube and searched for their new video.

Fergie is like a goddess on the video. Woah! I just love her so much. She's so beautiful.

Here is the music video of the song. Hope you will all like it just like me. ^_^

Willie Revillame Won't Run for 2010 Election

It is clear by now that Willie Revillame won't run for any position for the next year's election.

He said in an interview that he is thinking how can he give happiness to people like now that he is going to Las Vegas for a Wowowee tour especially to those people there who can't go home in our country. He also said that if there's time, may be not now, maybe someday, maybe after three years, maybe after six years, it depends.

Good thing that he listened to Dolphy's advise.

We Were a Victim of Akyat-Bahay

Akyat-Bahay is a colloquial Filipino term for "climb up a house". This is how thieves who break through to your house and rob your jewelries, moneys, home appliances and other important valuable things.

November 6, 2009 at 4a.m, I woke up to get ready for my work. Usually, my mother wakes up earlier than me to prepare my meal. I went to the other house and knocked, where my mother and my two siblings are sleeping. My mom answered and I was already fixed.

I was just shocked when the three of them came in to our house. My mother said that our four cellphones and money were gone. A thief got into the big house. We went back there and at my grandma's room, the cabinet of my sister was opened and her things were scattered. We went to the terrace and saw my siblings bags were dispersed.

The thief got in and out through the window. Hand prints still marked on it. We called the police. They told us to have it on investigation through SOCO but unfortunately, we never have the suspect. We went to the police station and have it blottered.

What a shocking day!!! T_T

The Reason Why Maricar Reyes Never Said a Word about the Scandal with Hayden Kho

After the outbreak of Katrina Halili's scandal with Hayden Kho, Maricar Reyes remains silent until now. With her success as an actress, with tv guestings on May Bukas Pa, an episode with Maalaala Mo Kaya and one of the supporting actors on Lovers in Paris, she became popular as ever.

I have the reason why Maricar never say a word about the leaking of the video (unlike Katrina who wants Hayden to have his license remove as a doctor). I saw a video that was rumored as the third video sex scandal with Hayden. It was on the sala and I believed that Maricar has the knowledge about capturing a video of her while they were doing the thing.

These are the screen shots of their intimate video. I believe the video is taken from the laptop of Hayden. Sorry I am not going to post links here of the video. ^_^



As you can see, Maricar was smiling on the camera.




They were kissing.



With these 4 screen shots above, they were having conversation about the latest trends of laptops.



With the 5 screen shots above, they were kissing and doing the thing already.

This is the .avi format. It is incomplete. The 3gp format has the complete video with Maricar Reyes as the arrogant performer on top. On the other videos I've seen, Maricar has been always on top (Maybe she really likes the position hahaha!).

The Calling of the Souls, a Halloween Tradition

Last night, I went to my boyfriend's house (again) and I witnessed their tradition which I never used or tried to. It is called sangpit or the calling of the souls of their relatives or the souls from purgatory. Just like you are inviting a living person for the feast.

His mother prepared special foods, drinks and cigarettes to offer for the special visitors. They lighted candles on the doorway. It started by a prayer and after that the calling was made. It was from 7:30 to 8:00 pm. I remember when my grandmother was alive, she really believed that on that time, souls were really visiting her, including my grandfather and other relatives. She also lighted candles on the doorway and prayed.

I was very silent then and just observed their tradition. It was weird to hear someone calling of the souls but I never felt anything wrong on what was happening. Souls are harmless and they were enjoying the feast last night.

The only evidence that souls were really present at their home was the cigarettes. Actually they lit 3 traditional tobaccos and 3 filtered cigarettes put in a small platter. Of the 3 filtered cigarettes, 2 were smoking as if somebody really smoked just like a living person do. Within 30 minutes, the sizes of the tobaccos and cigarettes stayed the same except for the 2.

I really believe that souls especially our relatives will really help us if you pray for them. His mother told me that this is their way to share their blessings for the souls.

Watching a Horror Movie: SCREAM


After work, I went to my boyfriend's house and we watched horror movies together with his family. I am not really fond of this kind of movie. We watched the SCREAM and it was my first time to see the movie even though this was released on 1996.

I think I am the last person who watched the SCREAM because everybody had seen this already. The lesson I've learned from the movie is get to know with the person you are in relationship with. Because you don't know that he or she is a psycho.

I Hate Facebook's News Feed at the Home Page

I felt anew by the few changes of Facebook. Honestly, I don't like the News Feed at the home page. I am used of the Status Updates to be on that page. Why I hate it? It's because I don't want to see again the old posts that have been updated at the present. I am fond of reading status updates of the users. I think I am much updated of what other users are thinking than seeing the news feed. That's all, I hope that Status Updates will be at the HOME PAGE. I'm comfortable with it.

Dolphy's Advise to Willie Revillame in Entering Politics



Willie Revillame is the host of the number one noontime show of ABS-CBN which is Wowowee. I am a viewer and enjoy the show so much. His live audience really love him. We saw that a fan made a poem for him how she really idolize Willie.

In this coming election, Sen. Manny Villar is waiting for the confirmation of Mr. Wowowee to be his running mate as vice-president or as one of his senators. Willie is very active joining the senator on his projects, nowadays.

Dolphy, the Comedy King, advised Willie that if possible, he should not join the dirty tricks of politics. He also said that Willie had given too much happiness and help to the people. He should continue this in the entertainment world and no need for being vice-president or senator.

Dolphy is right. Willie should listen to him. We all knew that Willie is living in controversial life and giving happiness to people is admired enough. Also he should listen to his daughter, Meryll, who told him not to get involved politics.

Joseph Estrada is Out of my List for 2010 Presidential Election


The former President Joseph Estrada announced for his running as President to the incoming 2010 Election. He was very confident. To know his past story of this former President, Erap as Filipinos all knew, he was the 13th Philippine President, impeached in Congress and ousted through a popular uprising (The People Power or EDSA 2). He was convicted of plunder and granted pardon by his successor (Mrs. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo).

People of the Philippines! Please DON'T BE FOOLED AGAIN! He is not worth it for the position and was never worth it in the first place. For me, he has no right to run for the 2010 Election. It is really a shame to our country for having a President like him. I hope Mr. Estrada has delicadeza. I don't know if he still has it. Mr. Estrada, be ashamed and have delicadeza.

Basia Live in Manila on October 21 at the Big Dome


She's one of my favorite jazz musician. I first heard her song "Time and Tide" on the radio and saw her music video on MTV. I'm just easily addicted to Jazz Music.

Basia is a Polish singer-songwriter, real name is Barbara Trzetrzelewska. She's here in the Philippines for a concert entitled Basia Live in Manila: It's that Girl Again. Oh my! It's tomorrow. I can't even go. Hehehe! Wish I could go there and watch her show.

She is famously known with her trademark Latin-flavoured jazz-pop crossover songs during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Her first top selling solo album was Time and Tide.

Undecided to Vote for 2010 Elections

I am still undecided who to vote for. I don't even know what to write on this post. Hahaha! OMG! I don't even know the official list of who are going to run for Presidents and Vice-Presidents even though I knew some of them. I still don't know if I am going to trust them. Am I going to vote or not???

Dingdong Dantes, from Marian Rivera to Rhian Ramos?

Let's relax and have a chill for show business.

with Rhian


Dingdong Dantes and Rhian Ramos are getting closer because of their show on GMA entitled Stairway to Heaven, a remake from the Korean series. The DONGYAN fans (Dingdong-Marian Rivera) are so worried that he could be grabbed by her from Marian. It's not only the fans but also Marian.

with Marian


Remember when he was with Karylle? By the time they had relationship, he was making a tv series with Marian and later on, we just heard about Karylle-Dingdong's break-up and it was because of her and their closeness. Is she afraid of KARMA?

with Karylle


As a girl, I just don't understand why he can change girlfriends easily. I remember when he was with Antoinette Taus. Toni as her nickname, went to USA for some reason (actually I forgot) and she stayed there for a while. When she came back, her boyfriend was already with Karylle. After that, she went back to America and stay there for good.

with Antoinette


Is he really that WEAK AS A MAN? With their closeness with Rhian, is there a possibility that he could be stolen from Marian? Or he just want to be stolen?

The Controversial Cebu South Bus Terminal

What makes it controversial? It is because of the P5 entrance fee for passengers as a boarding pass and P100 or P120 for buses.

I am living in Cebu South, specifically Naga, and I am working in Cebu City. Everyday I take a ride from the city to my town. The day I went to the terminal, I was shocked by the P5 fee. All passengers entered the premises complained about it. To think there was no announcement or notice to the public about the said fee. As an ordinary and a poor commuter, P5 is a big money for me due to financial crisis. I had no chance to back out because I was already on the entrance.

I once worked there as a vendor. The ordinary people take the ordinary bus and rich people take the air con bus. For me, 90% are the ordinary passengers and 10% for the rich passengers.

The old CSBT was very hot, no waiting areas for passengers and had a SMELLY TOILET with fee. Now the new CSBT is cool with waiting areas and fully air-conditioned and a new improved toilet but still with charge.

It is true that the new CSBT is like an airport. The improvements attract new businesses (which rich people can afford). I've heard that with the P5, the use of the toilet would be also free but THAT'S NOT TRUE. The using of the CR is still a business (OH MY GOD!) so I am not just only paying P5 but beyond of the said amount if I use the toilet(tsk! tsk! tsk!).

I also heard from an ordinary vendor outside the terminal shouting, "Palit namo daan og tubig kay mahal na sa sulod!" (Buy water outside for it is already expensive inside!). It means that all the goods inside are double-priced or higher than the goods outside.

Click here to read the news of Philstar

As what I've said earlier, there was no announcement or notice to the public before it was implemented. Philstar reported and published on the same day when the fee was imposed.

Even though the terminal is already improved, the TRAFFIC still remained on that area especially when buses exit the area going south.

I just realized that only people who have think P5 is just a small amount can only use the terminal and not the ordinary people living in Cebu South. With that P5, in just 5 days I could save P125, in 4 weeks I could have P500, and in 12 months I could have P6000. Now, I am discouraged to use the place everyday in going home or maybe I'LL JUST USE THE PLACE IF HAVING A VACATION.

Sex Scandal, Spreading Like Virus

Sex scandals are spreading like virus. A virus which all people are not afraid of, instead are very fond of it. Sex scandals are made by celebrities, politicians and some are just ordinary people such as students, couples, acquaintances and etc.

On the videos, we see that these people are really enjoying what they were doing. Feels like they were the star of their own show. What's so funny about it when the public see their show, they felt sorry for their own disgusting doings (*disgusting for it should be private). Hypocrisy sets in.

I really don't know why some people do these. When in fact sex is a private act. What happened to Hayden Kho and Katrina Halili (who didn't know about the video) is one example.

Katrina Halili is a celebrity, a sexy actress, a magazine cover girl for men like FHM and MAXIM but I believe that she had no knowledge about filming their private scene just as same as Maricar Reyes who never said a word about the controversy and just continued her acting career.

When I saw Hayden Kho as the new boyfriend of Dra. Vicki Belo, I was just shocked. He has a good face, so young and my first impression of him was like an innocent boy but is he a man with dark, deep secrets? Is he just too good to be true for Belo? I just asked myself if there's really love between Kho and Belo. Or it's just because Belo is just so famous and his digging the money of her. I thought he would never go to show business but I was wrong. He entered a talent show which he was paired with Katrina Halili (and the rest is now history).

When the controversy appeared, I was right about Hayden. It was so awful to see him on the camera saying sorry for what he had done with Katrina and to the rest of the girls who were involved on the sex tapes.

Opinions

Since this blog is all about the title above, I am here to post my views and beliefs in life and random things. Everyone of us are free to say what's on my mind especially if we were asked my someone to share our thoughts by a certain topic. Some may oppose, some may agree.

Have you remembered Miss California's answer of the pageant Miss USA 2009? Miss California Carrie Prejean was asked by a judge, who is Perez Hilton about gay marriage or something. Here are the clips to reminisce.

During the pageant


She was honest of what she said. Even though we all knew that the one who was asking is a gay person, she never responded the question for in favor for the one who asked.

Carrie Prejean's Interview on the Today Show


Yes you are right Carrie, standing for what you believe in.

His Retaliation


Tsk, tsk, tsk! He already had an answer on his question but unfortunately, for him, Miss California's responds was wrong because his was correct. (WTF!)

It wouldn't be a CONTROVERSIAL if not with the CONTROVERSIAL QUESTION and that couldn't be ask if that gay wasn't there. That was DEBATABLE and obviously some people MAY AGREE and some MAY OPPOSE. It was BIAS in the first place. As what I've said earlier, Perez already had an answer to his own question. It just happened that Miss California's response is not in favor for him and to the gay community.

To Perez Hilton, I think you should not asked beliefs from other people if you are not satisfied with what they say. Anyway, we are living in a free country and we can do things that make us happy. I knew some gays who are very happy having same-sex relationship or same-sex marriage. So be it!
