More Fun in The Philippines

Since DOT's latest slogan hit the web, it has already gone viral!


Netizens have different opinion on this but come on! I really think the idea is great! I recall Boy Abunda said on The Bottomline (his midnight show at ABS-CBN) that it is already given that we nearly lack resources, but what makes our country a tourist destination is us, Filipinos. Very true.

It's just sad that some of us have pessimistic attitude on everything the government (or even anybody) does. Why not, 
"Hey Gov't and your agencies! Be sure the tourists are safe and comfortable; make their destinations more beautiful and breathtaking. Let us do the rest"      - Love, Filipinos
Because that's what makes our society, right? Not in a sarcastic way, LOL. Instead, those pessimists criticize the slogan and the whole idea in an uncalled manner. Whenever & whatever bad happens to them they just had to drag the slogan with it and make it look like STFU world, Philippines' tourism campaign is a fake don't come in here we're just bunch of monkeys screecching! Dudes what the fuck, we're selling tourism in hope that we may once again live the way our parents and grandparents lived during Marcos' era (pre-Marshall Law state)! You know, a bread and Coke that will cost you less than Php 1.00 haha make that happen!

Even a foreign rock band, Simple Plan, agrees with our slogan! See the tweet here.

500 Days of Summer Musical

Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were back together since 500 Days of Summer (both of whom are the stars) and recorded a youtube video, uploaded last Dec. 28, 2011, clearly intended for New Year's Eve.

They are so cute together! I thought I'm watching 500 Days of Summer again!

I didn't know JGL sings! Well, as for Zooey I've known for sometime that she has a band.

Watch and get kilig!




I wish they'd end up together. :)

Review: Perfect Chemistry


Perfect Chemistry
Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



The story is your usual perfect girl plus bad boy blah blah blah. First 5 chapter and I couldn't resist comparing it to Twilight. I almost give up on this one! I don't know in what part it happens, but suddenly it became perfect. I didnt sleep purposely to finish this book. I couldn't get my hands off of it. Like a magnet, I was drawn to the characters and to the story especially to suspense it offers. I love it to bits aside from the observations I have written above. Though, I felt Carmen has to have her ruining moment to the couple as she presents also threat to Brittany. However, I still love this piece.

Crank & Crank: High Voltage Review

I can't believe I shut my eyes on Crank when I saw it on cable channel few years ago! Honestly, I just tried this one because I'm home, bored, got no new CDs and this is the only thing available. Its fast paced transitions, lack of meaningful lines, hilariously delivered satirical scenes, uncalled nudity and violence somehow made it more compelling.

Crank: High Voltage stuck to its original trademark and I must say did not fail to meet the standard the first film has made. It has more unbelievable scenes which of course didn't matter since it's not based on true to life story.

If you don't like violence then these films are not for you.


5 stars
