Playback: Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake – Love Never Felt So Good

5/18/2014 11:52:55 AM

Okay, I am not writing a lengthy post here, since I’m running out of time and reserving the other write-ups in due time.

I have been listening to FM radio lately, as my relaxing resort due to my pre-employment stage; when suddenly, this track apparently popped out of my radio set.

Yes, how about the late King of Pop and one of the pop music’s new elite icon on collaboration, aye?

Thrilling Finish

There are five first round match-ups that culminated into game 7 on the NBA playoffs recently.

Well, what’s new? Definitely, a lot!

Climbing The Datum Origin

5/15/2014 8:24:26 AM

As yours truly, along with several friends, reached the island of Marinduque for the first time (in my lifetime), we are supposedly boarding a trip to the town known as Torrijos later that day.

Until a sudden change of plan went on, and early in that Friday morning, we hiked up on that mountain known as Datum Origin.

Lookback: FlipTop's Ahon

5/15/2014 6:54:18 AM

Since it’s already four years since this one was held at Guerilla Radio in Pasig City, let’s take a trip back to memory lane.

Let me guess: FlipTop’s Ahon was the biggest event (if not one of the biggest events) the Makati-based rap battle league has ever organized. They started in mid-February 2010 with the gracing event known as Grain Assault.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: The Racist Owner

5/13/2014 3:07:28 AM

So nalagay na naman sa alanganin ang National Basketball Association (NBA) matapos ang kontrobersyal na remark mula kay Donald Sterling, ha? Siya lang naman, na nagmamay-ari ng Los Angeles Clippers, ang nagbitaw ng isang “racist” na statement ukol sa mga “black people,” o sa madaling sabi, maiitim.

Paano nga ba siya na-ban sa NBA at pinagmulta ng tumataginting na 2.5 million dollars?

Ang Mahiwagang Listahan

5/13/2014 7:04:09 AM

(Speaking of which, as of time na pinublish ko ito ay lumabas ang kontrobersyal na listahan.)

Ang mahiwagang listahan. Bow.

Pero hindi ito tula, ni hindi isang episode ng paborito kong palabas na anime na si Doraemon, kundi isa itong tirada (malamang! Dahil ano pa bang aasahan n’yo sa akin, ‘di ba?). Mula sa mga spekulasyon ng posibleng pagiging state witness daw, ngayon ay may listahan na siya. Aba, daig pa nya ang mga tindero at tindera, ano?

National Problem: Internet Connection (v. 2.0)

09/05/2014 12:45:23 AM

Ang Pilipinas ay ang bansa na may pinakamabagal na internet connection sa buong rehiyon ng Timog Silangang Asya.

Pero, ano naman bago sa mga ito? Masyadong bang evident para pag-usapan ito?

Playback: Kongos - Come With Me Now

09/05/2014 1:05:29 AM

Since everyone seems to indulged on boy bands once again like One Direction, the Vamps, and any other else… (say, does 1975 counts?) well, I’d prefer to listen to this all-boy alternative band (at least, not a very typical bullshit known as “mainstream pop”) named Kongos.

And to be frank? Yeah, WWE Extreme Rules brought me here.

The Scene Around: SYNC Music + Tech 2014

5/5/2014 8:09:30 AM

On April 27, musicians and music enthusiasts alike were treated by SPINNR indie to their event called SYNC: Music + Tech held during that hot Saturday afternoon at the Black Market in Makati City.

Yes, it was scorching hot that walking along the streets of Pasong Tamo for a second might cause you terrible sickness within the next few hours or so.

But that did not stop me anyway.

So I managed to register for the event itself, and braced myself for few hours of music and technology convergence.

Just My Opinion: Wrestemania XXX: Legacy Vs False Prophecy Round 1

5/5/2014 7:58:19 AM

So John Cena prevails, but another part of this plot will roll ‘til the Extreme Rules, eh? Some wrestling enthusiasts said their match with Bray Wyatt should have been the second best of the night.

And the flaws: They still lacked the much hype in compliance to their story line.

And maybe, I would agree with that.

State Witness? Seryoso??!

5/5/2014 8:52:34 AM

Maraming haka-haka na magiging state witness raw si Janet Lim-Napoles.

Ha? Seryoso?

Yan ay kung papayagan ni DOJ secretary Leila DeLima.

Isipin mo kasi, nag-confess ang fugitive businesswoman sa Justice secretary nung binisita siya nito noong nakaraang buwan. Aniya, dito niya dinetalye ang mga nalalalaman raw niya ukol sa PDAF scam. Pinangalanan din daw niya ang tatlong senador na sila…(teka, kailangan pa ba nating banggitin dito, eh usong-uso naman sa kamalayan natin ang tinatawag na ‘trail by publicity.’).

Pero, Napoles? Para magiging state witness? Tangina, nagpapatawa ka ba?

Just My Opinion: WrestleMania XXX: Breaking The Streak

5/5/2014 7:49:14 AM

(Yes, apparently, this is a very super duper late post) 

Who could have though the streak would come to an end…his way? Well, if you wonder and asked “what the hell am I taking about?” better check out this video.

Yes, of all the men who tried to stop Mark William Calaway, it was only Brock Lesnar who went successful in defeating him. After 22 years.

The Pre-Take: Extreme Rules

5/3/2014 10:29:10 PM

As much as everything goes stale for me in the pro wrestling world (specifically I haven’t even wrote my separate takes for the battles for this past Wrestlemania), here are my predictions for WWE Extreme Rules 2014:

Blockbuster Daw

5/3/2014 12:56:45 PM

Masyado na namang tumaas ang dugo ng marami nung may nasabi ang aleng ito sa kanyang panayam sa bidang aktor ng the Amazing Spiderman 2.

Ayon sa  panayam ni Kris Aquino kay Andrew Garfield, tinalo ng pelikulang My Little Bossings, na pinagbibidahan rin ng kanayang anak na si Bimby, ang pelkulang The Amazing Spiderman.

Wehh, teka nga!  Tama ba 'tong nabasa ko? Tinalo ng MLB ang Spiderman?

Yan ay kung sa highest first-day gross box office ang usapan. Ibig sabihin, kung pataasan lang naman ng kita ang usapan.

Ganun? Oo, ganun na ganun nga.

Lookback: Batch 2011

5/1/2014 7:44:45 PM

It’s been three years since this episode aired on Philippine television; and of course, yours truly, was one of those million (should I say) college graduates from batch 2011.

And since it’s Labor Day, and by coincidence... a Thursday (or should I say... #ThrowbackThursday), let’s take a trip back to 2011 and review this episode once again.
