Feeling Ko Lang Sikat Ako

This is in response to my dear Kring's EPIC Alam Mong Sikat Ka Kung post. Hindi ko ALAM na sikat ako... FEELING ko lang sikat ako. Let's assess... I dun have a Fan Page, except for my FB Fan Page with less than 100 fans that my cousin made for me. And I think half of the fans are my relatives. AWTS. I do have haters. Online. And offline. It's supposed to be a sad thing, really. But then again, at least I have people wasting their time and energy spewing out lies and venom against me. Masyado silang bored, I think. Errr... I have never been invited to guest in a TV show, not even in a radio show. :( But I was interviewed by Inquirer once. And I have a video to prove it. But I wasn't paid any TF. FAIL! But waiiit... I'm invited to events and poker tournaments and shiz... with TF yun. Does that count? Wala akong billboard. But I dream to have one someday. Ilusyonada! Googleable naman yata ako. Pag nag type ka ng "ria j" lalabas ang "ria jose." And it has 4,200,000 results. Pero when you type "ma," "maguindanao massacre" ang lalabas.…

Belly-Dancing Classes

I have always wanted to take up dance classes in lieu of going to the gym. Because I want to stay fit and... I love to dance. I actually wanted to take ballroom dancing classes, but I cannot find any good classes here in Davao City. This year, I resolved to take any dance classes. Luckily, my Mommy has been taking belly-dancing for years and she informed me of the Basic Belly-Dancing Classes at the LCB Performing Arts Foundation. Last Wednesday, I took my first class and I liked it. Wasn't able to enjoy it because it was very challenging. I had to take note of arm movement, footwork, belly movement, and controlling my chest and hips all at the same time. Rawrrr... My instructor is very sexeh! VERY! She has a really nice tummy and arms, and I want those. My Mommy has told me that Belly-Dancing isolates the muscles and makes it toned. I hope it works for me. I will have my next class on Monday. We will be having classes every Monday and Wednesday. Hope I survive. Up next, Hip-Hop Classes on Saturday at the gym! :) LCB Performing Arts Center also offers ballet, jazz, tap,…

Valentine's Day

I will probably love this movie... The song and the trailer are enough to make me love the movie. I know... I'm mababaw. I enjoy watching romantic movies. Plus there's Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, Patrick Dempsey, Jamie Foxx, and Ashton Kutcher. And is that Mc Steamy? OH YEAH! :) And I see mah love Topher Grace and the diva Queen Latifah in the credits. <3 "Love is the only shocking act left on the planet." LOVE THAT LINE! And no, Jessica Biel's character... it's not our fault we're alone on Valentine's Day. See you at the cinema! :)

10 for 2010

In solidarity with my colleagues at Avatar Media, here's my list of ten things I want to accomplish in 2010: Wear a tankini. Which implies I must lose weight and stay fit and healthy. I hope to accomplish this by May 2, 2010, the date of a planned island tour. Buy a netbook. Save money. Budget efficiently. Do not create a new blog. I already have too many blogs on my own and I have several others that I am maintaining. I need to focus more in maintaining the ones I currently have. Read 5 books. Last year, I spent most of the year just re-reading books I have already read. Must read more. Attend dance classes. Last year, I made a goal of attending culinary classes and I would like to think that was a major success. This year, I want to re-kindle my love for dancing, learn new skills, and stay fit. Travel around Mindanao. Must visit at least 3 places. I want to travel but don't have much budget. Plus, I think Mindanao is a really great place to explore. Organize at least 4 events. The Davao Bloggers and the Avatar Media Team both have a lot…

Seven Things to Do When You’re In a Relationship

...with Kim Sam Soon :) I have been obsessing over the Korean Drama "My Name is Kim Sam Soon." I already liked it when I was able to watch a few episodes when it aired on the local channel GMA 7. But I wasn't able to watch everything. Thanks to the magic of the internet and my Kdrama expert friend Brendel, I am now watching the complete series, with two episodes to go. I am loving every moment of it, except the scenes with Yoo Hee Jin and Doctor Henry Kim. Pft! Otherwise, I love it. <3 In Episode 14, Kim Sam Soon and Sam Shik finally dates, FOR REAL! And Sam Soon tells Sam Shik they should do seven things as a couple. Here's her list... #7 Shopping while holding hands. #6 Photo of Sam Soon's boyfriend on her phone. #5 Take a train ride while drinking beer on the way to Pusan. #4 Say "I love you Kim Hee Jin*" in front of everyone. #3 Get intimate while watching a horror movie. #2 Get couple rings. #1 Introduce each other to their parents as each other's boyfriend/girlfriend. *At this point of the Kdrama, Sam Soon changed her name…

GOAL: Wear a Bikini

I have a new goal this year. Wear a bikini during the summer. Well, it's easy to do that, actually. I just have a to buy a bikini and wear it. But the hidden goal there is to lose weight and be gorgeous while wearing the bikini. LOL! Realistically, I can never look good in a bikini as I have fugly stretchmarks from my pregnancy. Kidding! I have it from the constant weight gain and weight loss I've had since high school. So I will actually wear a tankini, something like this. So yeah, I'll try to eat well and stay healthy until that day on Summer 2010 when the shores of Samal, Davao and the fab (and lucky) people of Davao will witness me and my body in a tankini. Wish me luck! ;-)
