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.

Schick Intuition razor
November 15, 2007
I am thankful for the day my friend taught me how to shave. Although maintenance is a pain, the benefits are endless.
It was also a good thing, I was in the states when I was first learning how to do it right. They have all the nice tools you can use there to make a newbie lose all apprehension.
They have razors whose blades were covered with wires so that the blades do not come in contact directly with your skin. They have shaving cream, shaving foam, shaving gel. The skintimate brand came in cool colors of pink, lavender, blue and green. Now who wouldn’t be motivated with that?

Beauty is so Fleeting!
September 10, 2007
Every now and then, I see current pictures of old classmates. It’s interesting how the chubby ones then are now thin and the skinny ones then are now fat.
Reversal of fortune?
I remember this girl. When we were a lot younger, she was thin (like most everyone else that time). She was pretty, and she knew it. I remember her getting angry at a suitor one time because he gave her a gift that was creative but inexpensive, and definitely not the one that she specifically “requested”. He never really had a chance with her but she toyed with him nonetheless just to get freebies and an ego boost.
Oh well, she’s now fat. And not anymore pretty. She’s not even 30 yet but the beauty has faded. I wonder what that ex-suitor would think of her now.

More fab finds online
August 26, 2007
I am now a certified fan of multiply fashion stores. Its reminiscent of my stint in the states where I used to surf through store after online store looking for electronic gadgets. Now I am addicted to browsing through multiply sites looking for great fashion finds.
Let me share with you the results of my most recent shopping trip online.
I found these fabulous accessories from yesha’s online multiply store - the shopaholicstore. Yesha sells several cool items like gadgets, tops, bottoms, dresses, accessories, bags, eyewear, footwear, scents, and tiffany jewelry.
Breasts in Video Games (A Study)
August 15, 2007

Alrighty…let’s tackle a sensitive issue here.
First, why are female breasts over-hyped in video games? Can Lara Croft really be adept at swinging and doing acrobatics with those C Cups? Can full plate armor really protect you when you show those mouth-watering cleavages? Do you love Dead or Alive for the gameplay or is it something else?
These and other “mysteries” will slowly be unraveled in this post/study. I will attempt to tackle, catalog and share with you facts and insight about the science (and possibly the logic) behind the design and conscious (or subconscous) desicions of game designers on breasts in relation to games.
How vain are you?
August 5, 2007
I have been found out! It has now come out that I am indeed what you would call… VAIN! And I have to admit I am.
Here are some of the things that prove exactly why.
I always check out my reflection in mirrors, windows, computer monitors, or any other shiny surfaces. I am very conscious about how I look and I constantly have this need to check whether hair strands are standing up and out, or whether I have flyaways, or to make sure that my face isn’t too white or too blushed. I also often check to see I do not have facial hair that is obviously showing.
This is Dedicated to the Short Women
August 3, 2007
This goes out to the short women. For trying to keep with the long-legged walks. For putting up with the annoyances of the third, fourth, or fifth wheel labeling in group outings. For the little sister who never forgot that she teases his brothers taller friends, always having the good humor in smiling even upon overhearing that they are annoyed to death by her tag-along shortness.
