My diamond peel experience

May 10, 2008

Everyone knows I am kikay. One look at me and many will say… Ahh, yes you definitely are. Because I am like that, I take great effort to take care of myself and to try to look good. I am very particular with the clothes, the makeup brands, the shoes, and the skincare I buy for myself. I also make sure that my body gets a good de-stressing by getting a good massage once in a while or visit spa’s to get a quick facial.

But… this is the first time that I have experienced the diamond peel.

My mineral makeover

May 2, 2008

I recall that I was the last in my family (of 3 girls) to ever appreciate the benefits of cosmetics or makeup. Although I was always intrigued when I watched my mom perform her morning ritual of putting color on her face. Its just that I was hesitant for a long time to pick up the skills she so clearly displayed with putting on makeup.

My entrance into the corporate world was not exactly colorful… literally. My dad used to reprimand me for not even putting on lipstick as I ran out the door. He would always say I looked anemic. That time my only constant companion was Pond’s face powder and nothing more.

Kojic Acid for whiter ageless skin

April 30, 2008

I have been using Kojic Soap for a few weeks now, testing to see if the product really works as claimed. So far there have been no visible changes with my skin. Honestly I have no idea what Kojic Soap is and where it came from. In an effort to understand how the product works I found these pieces of information from the web:

Kojic Acid - This is a form of bleaching agent which is rather effective at reducing pigmentation irregularities.

This is from Essential Wholesale which sells basic ingredients for soap making. Check out the link for more information on the ingredients used for making cosmetic beauty products like soaps, shampoos and lotions.

Kojic acid is a more recent remedy for the treatment of pigment problems and age spots. Discovered in 1989, kojic acid has a similar effect as hydroquinone.

Lucky Guy?!?

April 17, 2008

I received an email from my friend of pics with this certain guy together with lots of hot and beautiful girls. This was actually the 3rd time that I received an email that contained these kind of pics. The first two I think were long ago, probably more than a year. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I kind of remember that he’s part of the abs-cbn crew? Which is reason enough to have access to be near these girls anytime. This guy’s lucky!

Ms Gay Philippines 2008

April 10, 2008

When I was a young boy, I was so scared of trannies. I don’t know why but I really was. However, over the years, I have learned to understand them in the same why that I understand my sexuality. And now, I don’t just understand them, I appreciate them and am proud of them.

One of the reasons why I’m proud of them is gay beauty pageants. It is quite sad that many people automatically think of question and answer boo-boos whenever the term “gay beauty pageant” is mentioned. However, what I’ve noticed is that our transsexual and/transvestite sistahs who join beauty pageants are getting more and more intelligent. All the more reason to be proud of the T in LGBT!

George, one of our readers from England, asked us if we were gonna cover the Miss Gay Philippines 2008 pageant. Ironically, I did not anything about the pageant had George not sent me an email about it. So I did some research online but most of the search results pointed to websites of gay beauty pageant boo-boos.

Apparently, the contest Miss Gay Philippines is on its 29th Continue Reading this entry– »

English and Comic Relief c/o Dense Modesto

March 27, 2008

It would be imprudent to equate intelligence with broken English. Nowadays, people seem to think highly of themselves whenever they could speak straight English when in fact, these so-called PINOYS cannot even speak straight Tagalog and worse, they prefer to speak TAG-LISH instead. Most of the pa-sosyal people and kids do that most of the time and that’s more irritating. Have these people not been taught at school that you speak one language at a time if you want clarity and cohesion? If you want to speak in English, then speak in straight English and vice versa with Tagalog. You do not add and mix these two languages to make it seem like your cool and hip and smart. It makes you look cheap and maarte, actually. But of course, not all good English-speaking Pinoys are like that and it would be stupid of me to make such a generalization. 

To be honest, to be able to speak in English is essential because as we seek to move towards globalization, this language will help us gain the upper hand in getting a job or a career basically. I think it would be safe to equate good education or sufficient education with good English skills instead. Because not all well-educated, good English speaking people are intelligent, right? Some receive good education because they can afford it. But intelligence is rarely developed as it is mostly based in your genes. So some who receive good education and speak perfect English may not necessarily have the brains to think beyond speaking perfect English. Some.

Online Petition For Janina?

March 24, 2008

It seems like the controversial Binibining Pilipinas World 2008 Janina San Miguel will never hear the end of it. Janina Miller San Miguel, a broadcast communication student at the University of the East, has received countless criticisms because of her answer in the semi-finals interview portion (click here to read full transcript of Janina’s answer and here for the transcript of the answers of the other finalists). She has been called names and even branded as the next Melanie Marquez - the country’s reigning queen of malapropisms. And based on interviews with her after the pageant, it seems like she will not budge. Janina seems like a strong woman and she probably is hell-bent on proving her detractors wrong and prove to the world that she is tough. After all, she is one of the tough ten!

Many Filipinos from all over the world were dismayed with the decision and are blaming the judges and the Binibining Pilipinas Charities for allowing contestants with poor communication skills to enter the contest. Some also blame (though only partly) the country’s educational system for producing students that are very poor in English. Others argue that she is a Filipina and there’s nothing wrong with speaking English with incorrect grammar. Some also suggest that we send an interpreter with her to the Miss World competiton (after all, other countries send interpreters too!).Over at the Binibining Pilipinas official website, a Press Release  >>> Continue Reading this entry >>>

Tama Na Kay Janina, Yung Ibang TAF Ten Naman!

March 13, 2008

By now you all should have seen the video (and its numerous remixes) of the interview answer of Binibining Pilipinas World 2008 Janina San Miguel. Her answer in the Q&A segment of the show has made her an international household name. But what you might have missed out on are the answers of the other candidates in the TAF TEN! Watching the videos of the other contestants answering the judges questions has made me think that these girls may just have proven beauty pageant detractors that these contests are not really all about brains.

We have to understand that these girls, even though they are not as viral as Janina has become, have to be given the limelight too. Because after all, they are also important persons in my life! Thank you!

So here are the transcripts and the videos of the answers of some of the finalists:

Q&A Transcript: Binibining Pilipinas World 2008

March 10, 2008

I’m sure many of you have seen clips of this on YouTube or watched the coronation night of Binibing Pilipinas 2008 on television. And I’m sure that many of you fell off your seats either in laughter, disappointment, frustration, or a combination of the three.

Earlier, I shared my two cents’ worth on what’s wrong with Binibini so I will no longer bore you with rants about the whole joke that the pageant has become. Instead, I’ll share with you the transcript of the answer of contestant number 15, Janina San Miguel, to judge Vivian Tan’s question in the Top Ten interview portion.

Janina eventually went home with the Binibining Pilipinas World 2008 title and will represent the country in the Miss World pageants sometime in the last quarter of this year. The challenge now is for the Binibining Pilipinas Charities to coach her on her language skills. They have at least six months to do that. Continue Reading this entry »

Cecilia Cheung Scandal

February 26, 2008

Just when you thought everyone was innocent, a sex scandal would pop from nowhere. It’s unfortunate that one of the victim on this latest sex scandal is my longtime crush, Cecilia Cheung. Apparently, these scandalous photos were taken by Edison Chen in 2005, stored on a laptop, and “stolen” by the people who repaired the laptop.

The Return of Filipino Animation

February 20, 2008

It’s been years since we last saw a full-length Filipino animation and that time we all reacted that it is not at par yet with American Cartoons, Japanese Anime, and the general Animation industry in the world. BUT, if we kept an open-mind back then, Filipino Animation releases (full-length or otherwise) becomes better and better for every release.

And you know what? This year we will be able to see the (as gamers say it) “bestest” of Filipino Animation has to offer. Want to see the trailers?

Keihl’s lip balm

February 15, 2008

I was excited when I read that Keihl’s was opening a boutique in Manila. They are known for their skincare targeted solutions similar to how Mario Badescu has their line of products. Their lip balms are also very famous among beauty addicts such as myself. And because my lips do not cooperate with lipsticks, I got myself the one with SPF 15 and Hue 58B. This lip balm is also a sheer lip gloss with cool red tones.

White sands of Candabong, Anda, Bohol

January 9, 2008

No doubt it was the highlight of our vacation in Bohol. Last December 30, we trooped from the mountains of Sudlon, Alicia, Bohol, where my wife hails, to the enchanting white sands of Candabong, Anda, a nearby town, for a cool Rizal Day splash.

The beach was public. We paid absolutely nothing to get in. The sand was creamy white and not artificial, unlike those in other private resorts in the province. At the farthest end of the semi-oval stretch of white sand is a small rock/island shaped like a soldier’s helmet. Along the shore were lines of boats and huts lying idly, as if time has stopped in that corner of the world.

The Quest for Blue Hair

December 28, 2007

After years of people hearing me say that I wanted to dye my hair blue, I finally did it!

Right now, I have blue hair. Obviously, blue is not my natural hair color. It came from a bottle, or more like a packet of dye.
