Playback: Kid Rock - "Celebrate"

4/29/2014 5:59:26 PM

Honestly speaking, as much as I want to post something new today (which includes a series of current issues tirade, a set of WrestleMania posts, and an NBA Playoff second round predictions since I failed to make one in the first round), I’ll end up doing this: how about a post about this WrestleMania theme?

Honestly speaking, my ears have been hooked up to this one for already a long time. It’s Celebrate by the American rock musician called Kid Rock.

PBB Na! Eh Ano Ngayon?

4/28/2014 9:43:28 PM

Sa wakas, makalipas ang ilang taon, may panibago nang edisyon ang palabas na Pinoy Big Brother. ALL In na daw sila.

Wala lang. Ano na? Este, ano naman?

Kagabi, samu’t saring mga tweet na naglalaman ng pagkadismaya ang pumuno sa news feed ko sa  Twitter. Tapos, kaliaw’t kanang post na naman – mula status hanggang sa mga timeline photos – ang namuno naman sa Facebook.

Kaso, ano naman ngayon?

Tunay Na Banal

Sana ang karamihan sa mga taong nagpapakita talaga ng TUNAY na kabanalan, ay tulad ni Pope John Paul II. Oh, correction, Saint John Paul II.

Sa totoo lang, hindi ako saradong Katoliko, at hindi rin naman ako nabuhay sa medieval ages (ni hindi nga ako nakapunta sa isang malaking event noong 1995 na tinaguriang World Youth Day).

Pero hindi naman sa pangungumpara, ano? Ang mga tulad ni Karol Wojytla – o mas kilala mula pa noong 1978 bilang si Pope John Paul II – ang isa sa mga taong kailangan ng Simabahan para mapalaganap ang dalawang bagay: una, ang pananamplataya; at pangalawa, ang asal ng katinuan.

Summer Na! Eh Ano Ngayon?

4/2/2014 10:43:12 PM

Sa wakas, ito na naman ang pinakahinihintay ng maraming tao – ang bakasyon na kung tawagain ay ‘summer break.’

Pero… eh ano naman ngayon? May bago pa ba sa tipikal na kalakaran natin bilang mga mamamyan ng mundo at pagiging Pilipino pagdating ng summer? Maaring meron din total nagbabago naman talaga ang panahon.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: The "Legal" Scenes

4/25/2014 5:35:40 PM

Kagabi ay nagtrend ang mga eksena mula sa palabas na ito.

WOW. Astig. May sampalan na naman! May iyakan! Batuhan ng matitinding kata at linya na naman! At higit sa lahat – nagkabukingan na. Nailantad ang dapat mailantad.

Ayos pa nga ang hashtag nila eh Parang yung pelikulang pinagbidahan lang nila Paul Walker, Vin Diesel at The Rock.

Eh kaso… ano na?

Sino mag-aakala na ang mamang ito ay mamamatay nang biglaan? As in hindi mo inaasahan bilang isang wrestling fan.

Oo, si James Brian Hellwig nga. Kung batang 80s o 90s ka at nanunood ng WWF (yan pa pangalan nila nun, bago sila nagkaroon ng naming dispute sa World Wildlife Fund) sa TV, ke sa channel 9 o 13 man yan, alam mo kung gaano kakilala ang mamang ito.

Yung taong laging nakaface-paint at may suot na maskarang akala mo ay aatend ng isang masquerade party? Yung tipong pag nasa squared circle ay ipapadyak ang paa ng bonggang-bongga habang tila inaalog ang taling nagsisilbing bakod nito. Yung sa sobrang wild ng personality dala ng kanayng hype at energy  pagdating sa arena, samahan mo pa ng musical entrance niya. At yung boses niya na kjala mo ay nakawala sa koral.

Yan nga – si Ultimate Warrior.

The iBlog10 Experience (Part 4)

4/17/2014 10:50:53 AM

After hearing a lot of speaking engagements at the 10^th Philippine Blogging Summit, I realized something: we have the capability to foresee them.

Yes, we all do, just like the trolls who used to create those ‘end-of-the-world’ prophecies.

Even yours truly came up with a list, which goes… like this:

The iBlog10 Experience (Part 3)

4/15/2014 8:42:13 PM

A few days ago, I had thought of creating a part 3 of my experiences on the 10^th Philippine Blogging Summit. The funny thing though is that one of my friends in the industry replied of “go ahead.”

And now, turns out the joke was one me when I made this post real.

As much as there are several points I imparted on the first two write-ups of this series (which by the way, was my personal tales of accounts during the two-day event).

It just so happened that I’m so thankful with bunches of stuffs I garnered during the stretch.and I’m not talking about anything materialistic here.

Instead, I’m all about ‘learning’ this time around.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: $30M o Misa?

4/17/2014 2:43:58 PM

Isang pasada na naman sa maiinit na tirada kahit sa panahon pa ng Semana Santa (eh wala eh. Mainit ang panahon eh).

Nadismaya si Cardinal Tagle sa mga kabataan. At ang pinakadahilan? Pera.

Iba talaga pag nagagawa ng pera ano? Pero sandali, di pa tapos ang storya eh.

Vindication?!

Noong nakalipas na linggo, nasaksihan natin ito.

Tama, ang pagkapanalo ni Manny Pacquiao laban kay Timothy Bradley. Pero may nakakagulat pa nga sa pagkapanalo nito?

The Road to Antipolo

4/19/2014 11:04:45 AM

Around 10:10 PM at Marcos Bridge Marikina City.

I think I just had the most grueling challenge in my 23 years and almost 7 months of existence.

It’s been a very long while since I personally have thought of doing this – and I’m talking about ‘sacrifice’ for Holy Week. Yes, the one they called “Alay-Lakad.”

The Scene Around: Good Friday Procession at Taguig (2013)

4/17/2014 6:26:43 PM

Here is something yours truly have spotted over last year at the city of Taguig. It was a  Good Friday of 2013 (March 29, to be exact) at the compound where the school College of Sta. Ana is located; or if you're more familiar with the church, it is the one they called as either Simbahan ng Taguig or Simbahan ng Sta. Ana.

Noon at Ngayon: Semana Santa

4/17/2014 12:07:02 PM

Ibang-iba na talaga ang panahon. Parang kailan lang… Pasko, Bagong Taon, Valentine’s Day, Ash Wednesday at Graduation Day mo, no? Ngayon, panahon na naman ng katahimikan. Tila paglukuksa ba? Di naman siguro. Pero kakaiba kasi sa tipikal na araw at holiday ang tinatawag na “semana santa.”

Oo, semana santa. Ang panahon kung kelan biglang nagpapakatino ang karamihan, partikular ang mga Katoliko. Ang panahon kung kelan tahimik ang iyong radyo. Kung bakit sarado ang inyong paboritong mall. Kung bakit bigla kang walang pasok mula sa iyong trabaho at summer classes.

The Rundown Slam: WrestleMania XXX

4/15/2014 7:28:14 PM

For over three decades, the world of sports and entertainment had its huge convergence by the name of WrestleMania.

30 years (and a mere half month ago), the very first professional wrestling’s biggest extravaganza was set at the Madison Square Garden in New York City.

And who will thought that after thirty years, three legends emerged to get along in the Big Easy?

I’m talking about Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

Now that is an epic moment for Wrestlemania XXX!

I’ll gave the entire review of those big-card matches in separate posts.

Shocking Loss

4/15/2014 10:57:31 AM

Wala nang mas sasaklap pa sa mundo ng professional wrestling kesa sa pangyayaring ito noong Linggo, a-6 ng Abril (o Lunes, a-8 ng Abril, oras sa Pilipinas).

Tama, ang pagkatalo ng Undertaker sa isang... Brock (oh, sorry, “BRRRROOOCK!”) Lesnar.
