Akalain mo yun, umabot pa’ko ng 21! Okay, okay. 22 na’ko.
Yan kasi. Nung Grade 2 ka di ka makahintay na lumaki ka para mailigtas na ang mundo, pero ngayong malaki ka na (5′10”) nagpupumilit kang mag-imbento ng time machine para mapabuti ang buhay mo ngayon.
Dati ikaw ang star, pinagharian mo lahat ng school competitions (pwera Maths!), nag-taekwondo ka pa. But now everything just got thrown out the window– ikaw na ang biggest disappointment of all time.
Nahuli ko rin sya! Ang ilap e!
Since the 20’s are a period of recollections, eto ang Top 10 Personal Favorite Posts ko dito sa munti kong blog: (sabay ganun e)
10.)Ako’y likod, hula ko. ..Hiatus ang paborito nilang word para rito, yung tipong bigla kang nakikipag-break sa syota mo at ang sasabihin mong dahilan: hahanapin mo lang muna ang sarili mo..
9.)Monthsary ..Gusto ko pa naman sanang ulamin yung adobong manok na nasa ref, pero naalala ko wala nga pala akong ref, kaya sa right nalang ako lumingon.. Read the rest of this entry »
As opposed to what everybody else is led to believe, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is neither the Devil’s daughter nor its personal secretary. I think it’s just that the ratio of the credit given to and the criticism slapped on her is approximately a staggering 3 is to 256. In whichever angle you’d like to look at it, it’s not the healthiest of ratios.
Ilang tumbling na lang, tapos na sya.
I’m not her lawyer though. It’s not my job to bore you away with a lengthy list of her achievements, her publicists take care of that. After everything’s said and done about her taking on the reins for almost a decade, I’d remember her as the economist and strongwoman. Sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t agree that corruption and power greed highlight her administration.
New York Knicks guard and two-time NBA slam dunk champion Nate Robinson is part-Filipino. That’s the word from basketball writer Rafe Bartholomew who said Robinson’s mother Renee Busch confirmed the Filipino heritage although the roots are rather scant.
Robinson, 25, is one-eighth Filipino.
His maternal great grandfather was pure Filipino, making his grandfather half and his mother a fourth. Whether that portion will qualify Robinson to play for coach Rajko Toroman’s Smart Gilas team is a question mark.
Technically, Robinson could be considered a Fil-Am or more like an Am-Fil. If he is issued a Filipino passport on that basis as a dual citizen, then the 5-9 human dynamo from Seattle qualifies to play for Gilas – not as a naturalized import but as a Filipino like Fil-Ams Marcio Lassiter and Chris Lutz.

AS PROMISED, here’s the upper half of the countdown. I’m mighty glad about the amount of responses, and most of the suggestions mattered in the completion of the list along with my personal research. A large portion of the criteria went to the players’ ability to drop your jaw like a cartoon character, make your eyes thrice bigger and draw you closer to your computer monitor. For some, it’s when you suddenly feel like God’s unfair in distributing physical beauty. I mean the main deciding factors are of course the face, body and kapal ng buhok sa kili-kili.

UAAP women’s volleyBALL games are a battlefield not just for the ladies’ supremacy in slapping BALLS aroundbut also for their ability to draw eyeBALLS onto them. The likes of Denise Tan (UST), Jed Montero (UP) and Charo Soriano (Ateneo) used to roam around the throne then owned by Rachel Daquis (FEU) and they provided us the necessary excuse not to wander elsewhere. What’s not to love about pretty ladies who kick ass too, right?
All hail the queen!
Angeli Tabaquero and Denise Tan
Dear Charo..Soriano
Last season queen Rachel used up her last year of illegibility and thus UAAP lost its most recognizable female athlete. That was huge considering that she was the heart and soul and liver of the league’s distaff side. This just means that the crown is pretty much up for grabs, and someone has to have the BALLS to rank them up in a list. Let’s get the BALL rolling!
Pinoys are once again smitten by another Asian invasion . After Japan’s anime and F4 of Taiwan, here comes the sudden explosion of korean pop music or simply called KPop.
“Nobody” started this already worlwide frenzy. I mean the song, by an all-girl group named as corny as Wonder Girls. I have to admit though that when I first saw a group of college mates perform it, I kind of fell in love with the dance steps. Not too much of a shame really, considering that even Americans were also hypnotized by those hip and finger moves. Si Dean nga paborito sila e.
In yet another blow of fate, I find myself on the losing end again. Inakala kong susuportahan ako ng parents ko pag sinimulan ko ang isa na namang semester gamit ang sarili kong ipon bilang panimula. But guess what, I thought wrong!
Maliit lang naman talaga ang ipon ko, kasi inaasahan ko na meron din dito sa University of Rizal System yung tatlong scholarship grants ko sa dati kong university. Yun pala e kahit Dean’s Lister walang scholarship o allowances man lang sa school. Astig. Read the rest of this entry »
Thanks nga pala kay pareng Ondoy, napag-swimming nya ang mga ilang linggo nang di naliligo. At wag ka, nabigyan nya ng exposure ang mga batang kalyeng di mo akalain ay magagaling pala sa larangan ng diving! Oo, kitang-kita sa news yung mga batang yun habang ginagawang diving platform ang mga street lamps! Saludo!
Di ko lang alam kung anong naging sitwasyon ng mahal (nga ba?!) nating university nung kasagsagan ng bagyo, pero malamang ay di naman naapektuhan yung mumunti nating library kasi nga nasa third floor yun. Wala namang literal na isdang lumalangoy, pero parang naaamoy kong there might be something fishy going on. Read the rest of this entry »
Today, we got clobbered, literally and figuratively, by the BK Whoopers! It was more of a boxing match than a basketball match. We expected it, but we didn’t see it coming this bad.
Our offense wasn’t so bad as we were still able to score 105 points and shot 47% from the field. BUT it was our defense that killed us, as we allowed 115 points for BK. Read the rest of this entry »
