It’s that time of the year when the World Wrestling Entertainment switched gears and went as hellish as fuck when they slate two inferno-like cage matches on Sunday popularly known as Hell in the Cell.

(Ang sanaysay na ito ay naglalaman ng isang matinding bugso ng emosyon.)

"Sa totoo lang. Wala akong pakialam. Wala sana akong pakialam sa mga nangyayari, basta wala akong ginagawang masama.

Hanggang nagpakita ang mga demonyong tulad niyo. Akala ko nananaginip lang ako. Akala ko isang bangungot. Akala ko isang gag sa comedy show o isang masakit na biro.

Throwback: This is It

I wanna take a look back on exactly five years ago, when news about the passing of this legendary-yet-controversial musician made waves. Yes, even beyond the trends of the modern world.

Michael Jackson's death instantly abrupt plans of making a huge comeback to the music scene via his worldwide tour This is It. And supposedly, it will have their kickstart on the O2 Arena in London on July 13 2009, just few weeks before his untimely demise on June 25.

The Bioessence Experience

It's been a very long while since the last time I hit a beauty establishment. And I know, that ain't my type at all. It's just because I managed to earn some perks while attending some blogging/press matters such as Blogapalooza.

Just last year, on the very first time I hit When in Manila's annual business-to-blogger meet-up November 2013, I got a freebie from Bioessence, the two-decade old beauty and wellness establishment. Well, the perk actually offered me either a facial or a back massage. I chose the former, and that was also the very first time I have undergone such treatment. So aty least, I could say nothing but good words regarding that matter.

Why am I here?
Who the hell are you?
Are you some kinda ghost from the past?
Or somebody will haunt my future?

Flick Review: The Trial

10/26/2014 10:52:33 AM

Warning: some parts of this article could spoil your ass off.

It’s been a long while since I last dug a couch and watch a film that is not really my type: heavy drama, especially the family-catered ones. Considering these: the last time perhaps I hit a drama-related flick was Sean Ellis’ Metro Manila; but if we’re really talking about the movie for the family here, it was 1996 (then a Kinder 2 student) when I saw Ama, Ina, Anak at that Ali Mall cinema in Cubao. The Jose Javier Reyes-directed flick stars Edu Manzano, Maricel Soriano, and Angelica Panganiban.

Since then, we can only afford to see more romance-driven pictures from ABS-CBN’s film firm with the exception for the following: Tanging Yaman and Anak.

Ironically though after 18 years, I saw another Star Cinema drama product titled The Trial (and yes, in cinemas again).  

Talk about a mentally-challenged 27-year old Ronald Jimenez (portrayed by John Lloyd Cruz) facing a trial after allegedly raping her teacher Bessy Buenaventura (Jessy Mendiola), with broad complex plot obstacles in the process, including Ronald’s family background, his connection with a late young advocate, Bessy’s relationship , and her school’s reputation.

Hell's Coming...

Looks like this year's Hell in a Cell would literally haunt everyone this coming Halloween season, eh? Take a look on this: double main event featuring the decade-long rivalry between John Cena and Randy Orton and the newcomers Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose.

As much as I want to tackle other cards, I found most of them boring, especially with the clash of the Bellas earning me these words: funny stipulation, yet stupid match in the making. However, whatever the turnout may be, I had a fat chance to be proved wrong and that's okay anyway.

RKO Outta Nowhere!

10/26/2014 11:52:47 AM

As much as I wanna stay away from writing any posts from wrestling (since I’m just a plain fanboy and I will not consider myself a smark neither a ‘mark’), I can’t help it... again. Well, I have yet to give my pre-take for WWE’s Hell in a Cell this evening (Monday morning Manila time) though this move has already gained mainstream attention. Well, I’m not really pertaining to mainstream media delivering this news (i.e. “Randy Orton influences the world with his RKO),” but moreover...

RKO memes are flying everywhere.

Isang malaking piyesa sa kasaysayan ng college basketball ang pagsunkit muli ng kameponato ng National University Bulldogs sa UAAP noong nakaraang Miyerkules. Isang historic na underdog victory, ika nga (kahit ang bulldog ay pang-siga) dahil matapos maolats sa Game 1, ay binawian nila ang kalabang Far Easter University Tamaraws sa Games 2 at 3.

Isang rally sa third quarter ang nagkita ng panalo para sa mga taga-Jhocson, 75-59, para kunin ang kanilang ikalawang titulo sa UAAP sa kasaysayan ng pagsali nito. Pareho silang mga orihinal na miyembro ng naturang liga mula noong naitatag ito noong 1930s.

The Scene Around: Professional Blogging Summit 2014

10/23/2014 10:12:26 PM

It was Saturday afternoon, and DPOP together with E-Commerce Boot Camp held their Professional Blogging Summit held at the A. Venue Mall in Makati City.

Though due to work, I managed to drop by at the venue midway through the program.

Despite being tardy though I still tried to learn and re-oversee what’s inside what I barely missed all throughout the afternoon. (well, according to some blog posts which I also read)

Lookback: End of an Era

8/28/2014 9:14:25 PM

As much as WrestleMania 31 will be more than half-a-year away from now, I hate to do this, but I’d rather write another lookback on the recent WerstleMania matches as I watch some random videos (besides, WWE Network, which costs $9.99 as advertised, is not even available here in the country yet) around our popular video-streaming sites.

Playback: Thryo feat. Ron Henley — Litrato

7/12/2014 11:48:31 AM

I have to admit: I never listened much on any local version of “slow jam” the rhythm and blues (rnb) way, and specifically, the romantic themed ones since I got used on my homies’ sets of Curse One, Breezy Boyz (yes, they were spelled that way; so don’t be an elite spelling Nazi) and Republikan tracks; until I randomly browsed my YouTube channel, and found this thing.

Chivalry Your Face

Sa panahon ngayon, na nag-iiba ang orientasyon at ang pangkalahatang pangtingin sa sekswaliad ng tao, ito ang nakapagtataka: akala ko ba gusto ng mga tao ng gender equality, gaya ng mga lalakeng sumasabit sa pambasaherong jeep.

Ano ang ibig kong sabihin? Ang litratong ito, na pinaskil ng Top Gear Philippines, at orihinal na kuha ni Marvin Sy (ayon sa naturang photo credits galing sa naturang magasin). Makikita na dalawang estudyanteng babae ang sumabay sa jeep pero hindi nakaupo. Kundi nakasabit sila, gaya ng tipikal na set-up sa atin na karaniwang ginagawa ng mga lalake.

Oh, gender equality ba kamo? Eh bakit kayo umaangal ng pagiging gentleman? Bakit kayo umaangal ng “is chivalry dead?”

Ang labo yata ng pinaglalaban ninyo ha?

Tirada Ni Slick Master: Basutusan sa Expo

Gusto ko lang ibahagi ang post na ito galing sa Facebook page ng Cubao Expo. Kung sakaling hindi mo alam ang Cubao Expo na ‘yan, o kung gusto mo ng mas modernong pangalan ay Cubao X, ‘yan ang dating Marikina Shoe Expo, isa sa mga tanyag na lugar sa Cubao commercial district sa Quezon City.

Bakit ito ang tinalakay ko, pansinin:

Sa haba ng kwento ng pinost ng admin ng Cubao Expo, na may pangalang Sandy ng isang shop dun na The Reading Room, isa ang pinuntirya nito: kawalan ng disiplina.

Stunner (on RKOs and Losing the Voice)

As much as I do not want to give much attention on any of the WWE’s flagship programs (considering I always have a lot of backlogs and schedules posts), I can’t help it; well, maybe because I’m sick of both political and controversial world. And even if I posted some of my very unusual visits and other good stuff, I haven’t felt much enough.
