A Moment’s Pause – To Love Or Not To Love!

Today is a happy occasion for both Senator Mar and broadcaster Korina. It is their wedding day. It was supposed to be really grand in line with Mar’s Presidential bid but then political event stepped in and Mar is now a VP candidate running alongside Sen. Noy Aquino. With this in mind, I do hope that their marriage lasts for a long time and that they have found a partner with each other which is quite hard nowadays. Please see the story I wrote about it in ManilaInformer.com

My friend is about to break up with her partner and it saddens me therefore I made the title as it is. I hope they get things settled. So my question, to love or not to love at all? This is confusing. But I guess there are happy endings as well as there are sad ones.

 

Ta ta for now!

XOXO

Sex, Lies and Videotapes…

Well, showbiz land for the moment. This issue seems to be what’s taking a more larger coverage than any other news in town obviously because anywhere you go, sex sells. Hahahah! I just watched on YouTube this video of Katrina Halili and Hayden Kho who were both dancing almost naked to the tune of “Careless Whisper”. This video is everywhere and last Sunday I saw this interview of Katrina in tears about the video being released to the public. So sad. I am actually sad for her. Her career took a nosedive when this was made public. Actually it started going down when her affair with Dr. Hayden Kho became public. What is more alarming is the fact that there seems to be more video scandals of Hayden with other women. Right now it seems that Hayden has gotten back together with the lady doctor, Dr. Vicki Belo of Belo Medical Group. They were seen in the airport together. It seems that Katrina is the most aggrieved party in this situation. Too bad for her she got in a relationship with Hayden when in fact he was still in one with Vicki. Now her reputation and career are on the line. A friend even told me that the video is already being sold in Baclaran. Wow! Talk about news traveling fast. Anyway, I just think that with this, people would be more careful in choosing their sex partners and make sure your privacy will always be guarded.

Global Warming: Philippines Setting

global-warmingWhat we have been doing to mother nature for the past hundreds of years is coming back to haunt us. Today right here in the Philippines we see an increasing rate in our temperatures over the summer. Just these past few weeks we have had temperatures rising to 34 degrees and Summer seems to be starting early. Well I see these as effects of global warming because of what mankind has and is doing to our mother Earth. All over the world, the sea level has been rising as what I heard and saw reported on TV earlier today and also a part of Mauritania is turning into a desert that their government is already alarmed and is making plans to return the greenery there once was. I hope that we all realize the bad that we are doing and start saving our Mother Earth for she is one and only and she needs to be saved in order for us to be saved. Somehow I see that floods wiping out entire civilizations might come to pass and we might be building a bad future for our children.

Join hands everyone to make our Earth cleaner and greener. Let us do our part however small it is. Big things start small. Let us start to recycle and be mindful of our trash. They might come back to haunt us…

Happy International Women’s Day

I will quote a part of an anonymous poem “…every women is beautiful because she is both steel and cotton candy and everything in between.”

Happy International Women’s day to all brave, beautiful and courageous women out there. From the daughters, sisters, wife, mother, girlfriend or grandmother. This is a day to celebrate being a woman. A day to honor all of the female population because of the immense contribution that they are constantly bringing to our world. As one of my most favorite saying goes…”behind every successful man, is a woman”.

A woman is not to be abused but be forever cherished. For a woman can hold much grief, stand so much sorrow and go through such pain as childbirth and be standing alright again. I could go on and on about how many qualities a woman has that makes her special but I think the most important one would be bringing another human being into this world after carrying it in her womb for 9months.

Enough said, happy women’s day everyone!

Francis Magalona dies at 44

va-rappublic_vol2Our master rapper and stalwart Filipino musician/artist just died at the age of 44 leaving behind him wife, Pia and their kids. He died at the age of 44. He died today at 12:20PM at the Medical City in Mandaluyong. He was already undergoing several chemotheraphy sessions since he was diagnosed with leukemia last year. He had become too weak to fight it. He died of sepsis as a complication of his leukemia. He will be sorely missed and I will forever remember him being the father of Filipino rap and being very proud of his country…

Adieu Francis M., you are going to a better place. May his soul rest in peace.

4th Grader Dies in an Accident Yesterday!

A 4th grader boy yesterday got killed accidentally when a van hit him inside the Ateneo de Manila University in Quezon City. The victim’s name is Julian Carlo Miguel Alcantara and he was 10 years old. He was brought to the hospital and was pronounced dead upon arrival at the New Era Hospital. He was walking along with his 65-year old nanny when they were hit by a van. The driver of the van was also a mom who was trying to pick up her son but instead got in a tragic accident with another mom’s son. As a mom, I feel this. The death of an innocent boy in this tragic accident is very sad for me. And to think he was only 10 years old. I’m sure that his mother is going to be traumatized. The driver of the van who hit the boy and the nanny was actually hysterical too when she was brought to the police station. The nanny sustained several fractures but has survived the accident. This is really saddening and very traumatizing for all those who witnessed the accident inside the campus. God bless the poor boy’s soul. May he rest in peace and may he be surrounded by angels.
