...and yet do not have the guts to say "NEXT!" Masochists? Romantics? I think they're stupid. In this podcast, I talk about three situations relating to the topic. Warning: This podcast is very angsty. And I curse. A lot. Pasensya na. May pinaghuhugutan! :P Download at this LINK. Thank you to Brendel for suggesting the topic. To the people I am talking about. Sensya na. It had to be said pare. Bato-bato sa langit, ang tamaan, SANA MAGISING! Thank you to everybody who had been listening to my podcasts! I am humbled by your attention, comments, and suggestions. :) Music clip is Martyr Nyebera by Kamikazee.

The Wedding I Might Want
I have not, even as a kid, dreamed of having a wedding, getting married or having children. Maybe thought about it in vague terms, but was never something I spent time thinking about and dreaming about. I'm weird, I know. But here's one wedding I might want to have: Jerico and Marizel (Tuesday Vargas) from Mayad Studios on Vimeo. Izel: Sa buhay nato, marami akong naging pangarap: maging mahusay na doktor, maging beauty queen, at maikasal sa isang magarang lugar sa isang matipunong lalake. Masasabi kong sa raw na ito ay natupad ko na ang isa sa mga pangarap na yun: ang maging beauty queen. Jerico: Today I will marry my friend, the one I will live with, dream with, and love. Izel, I offer you a bond that will be as sound and dependable through the patterns of life's ever changing tides. As these waters nourish the earth and give life, may my constant devotion nourish and sustain you until the end of time. My love for you, endless and eternal, .... Izel: Coy, nais kong magpasalamat sa maraming beses mong pagsagip sa buhay ko mula sa bangin. Salamat sa pagmamahal na ipinakita mo sa akin at kay Kaya.…

Flippish is Turning 1!!!
Yes, yes, yes! My favorite online channel, the first online Pinoy Channel Flippish is turning one! It's the channel that brings us our dose of crack and LOL via Direk, Who Dares Kring, Corny, Brainfreeze, and Boy Bawal. If you want to laugh, watch these shows! There's also the lifestyle magazine show like Girl Next Door that teaches us the ways of the kikay. It is hosted by the adorable Chrina Cuna. But my ultimate favorites from their roster of shows are their live talk shows: Talking Heads with Kring Elenzano and Chris Tan and Pinoy Parazzi Live with Faith Salazar. Both shows are witty and UNCENSORED! LIVE! Haha! Again, UNCENSORED! It's a very Pinoy channel with something for everyone. They're turning one and celebrating the milestone with a PARTY! Party with your favorite Flippish celebrities on July 1, 2010 at Fiamma. Register at Flippish.com now. As in NOW NA! Wish I could be there. :( But I'm sure it's gonna be tons of fun even if I'm not there. If you're going, please hug Kring and Faith for me, molest Jinno Rufino's abs, tell Chrina Cuna I have a girl crush on her, and say hi to Kuya Kim…
Tell Me WHY?
My intoxication has just subsided as I write this. But expect rage and angst. I read this Bob Ong quote in the signature line of an email message I received: "Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap nasa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama ka." - Bob Ong Translation: The hard part of being alone is not in sadness or fear, but in the realization that among the many billion people in this world, nobody fought to be with you. Duuuude, that hurt! A LOT! OUCH! YAYAY! And you know why it hurts? Because it's true. FUCK THAT SHIT! While I am mostly happy with my life (great career, supportive family, and fun friends), I sometimes ask myself why the eff am I alone? Why is it no guy seems to think I am good enough for them to love me and take care of me? Am I that bad? At the risk of sounding narcissistic and mayabang, I think not. I mean, come on, I know I have a reputation for being a mean, aggressive girl that's too much to handle, but dammit I am a good girlfriend. Ask the fucktards…
Podcast 6: Being Friends with the Ex
This is the podcast where I bash all my exes. NOT! Are you friends with your ex? I am. Find out how I manage to be friends with the cause of the biggest heartbreaks in my life. I talk about being friends, how to be friends, and other subtopics that were asked or suggested by different people. This is my longest and most stressful podcast yet. I wasn't stressed out by the topic but by the editing I had to do. LOL! Listen as I talk about being friends with my exes and how you can maybe also be friends with yours... Apologies for the looong recording. Hope you were able to finish it. Agree? Disagree? Post your comments below. :) Credits to the exes who gave me ammunition for this podcast. :P Thank you to the people who contributed: Ate Joanna, Reissa, Ate Dominique, Poyty, Orman, Jesse, Donna, Steph M, Tiara, Massa P, Rastapopulous, Sparkeh, and anonymous! :) Sound clips from Star Cinema's One More Chance and Phil Collins' Separate Lives.
