Ipa-Suspend Daw?!

10/26/2016 05:41:21 AM

Sa totoo lang, as much as sinusuportahan ko ang ating pangulo, hindi ako fan ng babaeng ito. Kung bakit? Obvious naman eh. Baka awayin niyo lang ako sa kung anu-anong dahilan na masasambit rito. Ayos nga sana kung usapan o debate lang eh. Kaso malala na ang pagka-adik ng marami sa mga Pinoy sa social media. Feeling nila hawak na nila sa leeg ang ibang tao – lalo na yung mga sumasalungat sa kanilang opinyon.

Aba, ayos din kayo, ano?

Sa totoo lang, hindi yata marunong magmove on ang mga tao sa Pilipinas. Nagbago na ang administrasyon, unti-unti na rin nagbabago ang mga kaganapan sa parehong pulitika at popular na kultura.

Pero ang kamalayan ng mga tao sa social media, parang tumatandang paurong e. Kahit makipagtalo ka pa na hindi na bago ang mga ito.

Wrong Book(ing)!

10/26/2016 02:25:41 AM

Well, as we we saying in my previous blog post, we thought the hype invested in this feud will be a smooth road.

That was our prejudgment until someone screwed up; and certainly it wasn't any of Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, or Paul Heyman's fault. But not even the crowd inside Target Center, either.

Who's Last?!

I should've written this post a week ago, when the hype of a returning icon just came back. Perhaps as an answer to the challenge poised by the Beast Incarnate.

PlayBack: Ely Buendia X The Itchyworms - Pariwara

10/14/2016 03:45:22 PM

Since their rise to the mainstream in the 2000s, it was highly regarded by many that The Itchyworms were the heir apparent to Ely Buendia and his band – who we all know as – The Eraserheads.

The Walking Dead Na! Eh Ano Ngayon!?

Lunes na naman. At para sa mga adik sa mga samu't sariling TV series mula sa Amerika, ito ang palabas na tinatangkilik nila; ang pinakapatok: The Walking Dead.

Isang horror drama na palabas na hinango mula sa komiks ni Robert Kirkman, na siya ring may gawa ng Outcast. Kasama ni Kirkman sa paggawa nito sila Tony Moore at Charlie Adlard. Si Frank Darabont naman ang nag-develop nito sa telebisyon.

Sa sobrang hit nito, naging isa na siya sa mga pinakatanyag na pangalan sa popular na kultura mula tauhan hanggang lugar. At maliban kasi sa drama, likas rin kasi na mahilig ang marami sa atin sa mga horror na palabas. Hindi man yung mga gaya ng multo o maligno pero at least yung hinahabol ka ng zombie.

Kaya nga pumatok ang larong Plants vs. Zombies sa atin, 'di ba?

Eh Season 7 na pala ng The Walking Dead kaninang umaga.

Eh Ano naman ngayon?

The Scene Around: Locked Down Night

10/11/2016 05:42:39 PM

It was a rainy Thursday night, and I just came off from a team meeting at The Collective. While it;s a bit bearable to travel on my way home, I decided to take a walk and check out what's happening at one of the best nightout spots in Makati City (aside from my personal agendas).

Inside The Pages: The Best In The World At What I Have No Idea

10/11/2016 03:55:36 PM

For over two-and-a-half decades, it is safe to say that Chris Jericho has become a worldwide entertainment phenomenon. And he has done it in the world of performing arts, sports, music, and even acting. A metal-head and a sports entertainer – should we rather say, wrestler – this on-screen villain has done the documentation in two books; which gives him another distinction more than just a thousand plus holds – being an author.

PlayBack: Maude - Habol

10/07/2016 02:16:54 AM

I only heard Maude live only once, and that was barely ten months ago.

And two years after releasing the 11-track Pelota Court, this pop-rock band has been rolling with that helluva music video from their single Habol.

Wala na sigurong mas nakakaloka pa kesa makita ang insidenteng ito sa Facebook kahapon. Actually, mas matindi pa siguro kung nasa Maynila ka pa siguro.


The Scene Around: Health Junkie X Not Your Ordinary Mum's Feature Writing Workshop

10/18/2016 02:37:38 PM

It was barely a year ago when I traveled to Alabang, Muntinlupa City for a writing workshop. Well, much to my surprise. One of the event organizers invited me to go there despite having some personal shenanigans earlier that day.

That was also my first time to travel to the southern part of the metro alone, as bloggers Health Junkie and Not Your Ordinary Mum teamed up to organize a workshop intended for feature writing, and it's all held inside the Hog's Breath Cafe in Festival Supermall, Alabang.

PlayBack: Rico Blanco - Wag Mong Aminin

10/07/2016 02:38:33 AM

It's raining day, you're getting emotional, and suddenly, you spotted this music video on YouTube.

Nothing but a classic product both by musician Rico Blanco and director RA Rivera. The veteran was on point from the main storytelling to its divisions – different scenes but depicting the same plotline – heartbreaks.

10 Months of Botched Runs

It was saddening that one of my favorite wrestlers in the WWE only stayed for 10 months; much to everyone's disdain.

The Rundown Slam: WWE No Mercy

10/15/2016 02:19:24 AM



It's kinda strange to see the order of how things took place at Sacramento, California, during the staging of the WWE's second Smackdown Live-exclusive pay-per-view event called WWE No Mercy. They kicked off with a main event and end the night with a supposedly-main event show but seemingly not enough to be tagged as one.
