[Share-worthy] Surprise Wedding: Bride Had No Idea



I'm not a fan of love stories. What I like though are rom-coms. For me, this story is like a rom-com -- crazy and surreal with a dash of humor, but in the end -- it IS a sappy love story! <3

Kudos to Shawn for pulling this off! But man, aren't you lucky to have a beautiful woman like Colleen, who obviously loves the simple joys of life and seems to value the special people in her life more than anything else.

And Colleen, you're undoubtedly just as lucky to have a man like Shawn, who would risk looking like a big ass in front of all your family and friends just to give the 'Princess Bride' wedding that you deserve.

Best wishes to you both! :)

AI Judges, Puh-leassssseee!

My goodness... The American Idol judges should shut up during results show and should be more subtle about their 'favorites'. I mean, your time's up in doing the picking and cutting, it's the public's turn. Stop insulting your audience on how wrong they are. At the end of the day, your show is just a launch pad -- the public will buy the music of whoever they want -- win or lose. 'Nuff said.

Excited for November

I'm so excited to plan our November holiday! It will be our first time to go on a "romantic" getaway. Our idea is to stay at a nice resort and lounge at the beach pretty much our entire stay. Unfortunately, the resort I have my eyes on has only released their summer specials, which would run until the 31st of March. I guess I will really have to wait until June or so to finalize our plans. Oh my gawd! I seriously can't wait! Oh by the way, have I mentioned that our November destination is Bohol? 'Nuff said! :)

Subic 2010


My life partner and I spent our Christmas holiday 2010 in Subic and it was totally memorable for a lot of different reasons. First of all, it was to celebrate our 10th anniversary. And believe it or not, it was our first out-of-town trip that it was just the two of us – without friends and family. What even made our holiday exciting was the fact that we experienced Olongapo like a local. Usually, when we hear ‘Subic,’ posh resorts, fun water activities and popular animal sites come to mind. In our case, we stayed in a family member’s staff house, travelled around Olongapo in public transport, and went to a local beach by the roadside with an entrance fee of only Ph20! We even got a chance to visit a nearby spa for a two-hour massage, after which we were served the most delicious cup of green tea. Christmas 2010, for us, was proof that it’s not where you go and how much you spend on a holiday to make it fun and memorable. As long as you have an open mind, a spirit of adventure and of course, your loved one to exeperience everything with, you’re all set. ♥

[Must-watch] Pinoy Pride: Lil Demon


Saw this kid on TV this evening and at a glance, I knew he's Pinoy... a damn talented one!

Anjelo Baligad, better known as 'Lil Demon' has been dominating the B-boying or breakdancing world since he was -- SIX! Yup, you read that right... SIX.

Now 9, he's a member of the Waipahu, Hawaii-based HyperSquad Dance Company. And get this, apart from winning B-boying battles against grown-ups, he's also been busy guesting in such popular shows as 'So You Think You Can Dance' and 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (where I saw him), and appearing on a movie called Step Up 3D!

Watch these vids and you'll understand why. Seriously, I can't seem to wrap my head around how he's able to these moves! The kid can dance his ass off! Kudos to you, Lil Demon!
