3rd Annual Star Magic Ball (2009) Video

The Annual Star Magic Ball is for ABS-CBN Star Magic's roster of talents. This 2009, the Star Magic Ball will be the 3rd (the Star Magic Ball started on 2007). Kapamilya a.k.a. ABS-CBN stars like Bea Alonzo, Piolo Pascual, Sam Milby, Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson are looking forward for the event. It is also the first time Nikki Gil and boyfriend Billy Joe Crawford to attend the Star Magic Ball together. The 3rd Annual Star Magic Ball(2009) will be held on August 30, in Makati Shangri-La Hotel. Videos of the event will be uploaded on YouTube and will be aired in the coming days. If I were not mistaken, the 2009 Star Magic Ball video will be available for TFC subscribers to watch online. If I happen to locate any video clips or the full video of the 3rd Star Magic Ball, I will upload the video here. Thank you.

Globe Telecoms with Delbros Courier Services recently launched the Globe GCash Click. It's a new, safe and convenient way to do shopping transactions online.

GCash Click and Delbros will handle the payment transaction AND the pick-up/delivery of your product!

Sunsilk Smooth and Manageable With Creamy Yogurt Energizer

I just love the new scent of Sunsilk Smooth and Manageable With Creamy Yogurt Energizer Shampoo! It's just a strike of luck that I tried it this morning. I ran out of shampoo (Clear TechSoft) and headed to the store to buy a sachet. But unfortunately (or lucky me), they don't sell Clear TechSoft sachet, so I just opted for the new Sunsilk (with free Creamsilk) sachet. And oh, the smell is amazing and it really made my hair extra soft (sans the conditioner). I realized that this is the new Sunsilk Smooth and Manageable With Creamy Yogurt Energizer Shampoo with NEW Scent plus Intense Softness. I'm so glad they really lived up with what the label say! I just wish they also give Sunsilk Straight and Sway Conditioner that kind of smell because I find it a little off.
And because I was so pleased with that Sunsilk sachet, I purchased my bottle this afternoon! yey!

My Sim Card Number Won 2nd Prize!!!

It was raining and I'm sitting on the couch, watching TV, with my phone beside me, expecting a message from someone. naks. It was like a scene from a kilig-themed movie where a girl became so happy when she received a message on her phone, assuming that the text message is from her boyfriend or somebody special. Yes, my phone beeped, I read the message from an unregistered number and was really surprised after I realized what the message is all about.

I received the text message from 09268221505 saying:

If you didn't join any raffle, why will you win something in the first place? Don't ever believe anything like this one.

Luckily, I have enough load to send a reply. I texted 09268221505 a simple and one-word reply: "gago."

I bet every girl who laid eyes on Jiggy A. Cruz thinks that he's boyfriend material. I know, because every teen's blog I visit, I see some banner or a page with "I Crush Jiggy Cruz" or "Marry Me Jiggy Cruz" blinking merrily with the help of a Flash Player. Well, he's indeed a boyfriend material. He wears rimmed glasses, very articulate, has a very good job and what else? Jiggy is also a comic book enthusiast, a chocoholic, a rock/alternative music fan, athletic, and always busy helping the country and saving the day (sounds like Clark Kent to me).

Are Kingdom of Loathing (KoL) Cheats Existent?

Kingdom of Loathing is a darkly funny, browser-based, multiplayer role-playing game. KoL game world is drawn in a crude stick-figure style and hardly any animation at all — with clever writing and a bizarre, complex world that takes months to explore entirely. I recently joined Kingdom of Loathing. I named my character Aysus the Pastamancer.

KoL Cheats\Pastamancer
The first thing I did is The Toot Oriole Quest. The Toot Oriole is a bird (or something like that) who lives on top of Mt. Noob.

Kingdom of Loathing

I don't know if there are cheats to use in Kingdom of Loathing (KoL). Maybe there are some cheats or codes that can increase your "meat", the game's currency. Or maybe there are cheats to gain "beefiness" or muscle.

By the way Norway, for those who haven't heard of Kingdom of Loathing or KoL, before you study what cheats to use, cheaters, here are the 6 interesting female characters (well basically male and female characters on Kingdom of Loathing are all the same) you can choose from:

Seal Clubber- hail from the frigid Northlands, because one character class always hails from the frigid Northlands. They rely on their Muscle to survive.

Turtle Tamer- She excels at moving very slowly and winning footraces with smug satisfaction. Her Muscle is the key to her success, and to her long lifespan.

Pastamancer -With her mastery of the arcane secrets of Noodlecraft, the Pastamancer is a force to be reckoned with. She relies on her Mysticality to get ahead in the world.

Sauceror- Long engaged in an uneasy truce with the Pastamancers, the guild of Saucerors protects the secrets of the Ancient Brotherhood of Gravymakers. Their Mysticality is their most important attribute.

Disco Bandit- boogies to and fro, hither and yon. Whence comes she? No man knows. Whither strikes she next? All men live in fear of her and her Moxie.

Accordion Thief -The scourge of mariachis and polka bands, the Accordion Thieves have plied their malign craft since time out of mind. Their Moxie serves them well in both their adventures and their interactions with "the gentlemen."

I have remaining time for my adventure for today. Who knows, while doing my adventures, I'll discover useful Kol Cheats or Kingdom of Loathing Cheats that I can share here. Let me master it first. lol.

Derrick Thomas Death|Derrick Thomas Photos

What really happened to Derrick Thomas? How did he die? What's the cause of his death?


derrick thomas death

Derrick Thomas died in 2000. That was 9 years ago but now the issue about Derrick Thomas death is again surfacing. Not because of any other reasons but because NFL team Kansas Chiefs have not replaced Derrick Thomas as a linebacker since his death in 2000.

"Thomas’ death left a void on the field that still hasn’t been filled," according to kansascity.com. That was the Chief's biggest failure since Derrick Thomas' death, that his position was not adequately replaced. They cannot find a player as good as Thomas.

So, how did Derrick Thomas die? Derrick Thomas death was caused by cardio-respiratory arrest while he was treated for his injuries due to a car crash. Derrick Thomas died at the age of 33.

SF Cheats|Cheats for Special Forces

Did you know that SF means Special Forces? And SF Cheats means, well, Special Forces Cheats? And did you know that almost all searches for SF Cheats come from the Philippines? I guess that in other countries, they call it Special Forces and not SF. So, Filipinos also call Special Forces Cheats "SF Cheats". (Filipinos like these acronym thingy, calling Friendster FS and Facebook FB. lol.)

Special Forces (SF) is a very classic game, this game had evolved from a PC Game, Atari game, Playstation game, Gameboy game, and online game. Though more and more people still play Special Forces and still more and more are looking for SF Cheats.

What are the common SF Cheats?

The Invincibility Cheat- this SF cheat means that you'll be, uhm, invincible. I guess if you acquired this SF cheat, you will not die unless...I don't know.

No Reload Cheat- Wow. If you acquired this SF cheat, you will have a bottomless ammo!

Invisibility Cheat- you won't need to borrow Harry Potter's invisibility cloak to be invisible if you know how to use this cheat.

Super Speed Cheat- the name says it all. If you have this SF cheat, you will be super fast!

Auto Aim Cheat- this SF cheat is what I need.lol. If you use this, you will never miss a shot!

Just a few reminders readers, cheating is cheating. Sometimes, using cheats can cause termination of your game account. Just like in Facebook's Mafia Wars, using Mafia Wars Bookmarklets may cause suspension of your Facebook account because that's cheating. They don't tolerate cheats. I think the same goes with Special Forces (SF), if you use SF cheats on your SF game, that's bad, and you'll deserve a penalty whatever it is. Cheats are cheats.

남산 위에 저 소나무 철갑을 두른 듯
바람서리 불변함은 우리 기상일세

무궁화 삼천리 화려강산
대한사람 대한으로 길이 보전하세

가을 하늘 공활한데 높고 구름 없이
밝은 달은 우리 가슴 일편단심일세

무궁화 삼천리 화려강산
대한사람 대한으로 길이 보전하세

이 기상과 이 맘으로 충성을 다하여
괴로우나 즐거우나 나라 사랑하세

무궁화 삼천리 화려강산
대한사람 대한으로 길이 보전하세

Aegukga (The Song of Love for the Country) English Version

Until the day when the East Sea's waters and
Mt. Baekdu are dry and worn away,
God protect and preserve us.
Long live our nation!

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

The pine tree atop foremountain
stands firmly unchanged under wind
and frost as if wrapped in armour,
as is our resilient spirit.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

Autumn sky is void and vast,
high and cloudless,
the bright moon is our heart,
undivided and true.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

With this spirit and this mind,
give all loyalty,
in suffering or in joy,
love the country.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

Thy name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sind, Gujarat and Maratha,

Of the Dravida and Orissa and Bengal;

It echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas,

mingles in the music of Yamuna and Ganga and is chanted by

the waves of the Indian Sea.

They pray for thy blessings and sing thy praise.

The saving of all people waits in thy hand,

thou dispenser of India's destiny,

Victory, victory, victory to thee.

I Have Fallen In Love (With The Same Woman Three Times)

This poem was written by Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino for the late former President Corazon "Cory" Aquino for their 19th anniversary. He was in Fort Bonifacio then, and in his prison cell, he wrote this loving tribute for his wife, Cory. The poem was titled I Have Fallen In Love (With The Same Woman Three Times).

In 1987, Ninoy Aquino Movement head commissioned Jose Mari Chan to set notes on the poem. I Have Fallen In Love (With The Same Woman Three Times)-- the song, was born.

On this day, on Kris Aquino's tribute album for her mom, Cory, she had included the song I Have Fallen In Love (With The Same Woman Three Times) but this time it's sung by Christian Bautista.

This is a very romantic song/poem. Even if you just read it, without melody, you will feel deep, great love of a husband to his wife: The woman that he had fallen in love three times.

Here is Ninoy's "song" for the late Former President Cory Aquino:

I Have Fallen In Love (With The Same Woman Three Times) Lyrics
Written by: Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino
Music by: Jose Mari Chan
Interpreted by Jose Mari Chan and/or Christian Bautista


I have fallen in love
With the same woman three times;
In a day spanning 19 years
Of tearful joys and joyful tears.

I loved her first when she was young,
enchanting and vibrant, eternally new.
She was brilliant, fragrant,
and cool as the morning dew.

I fell in love with her the second time;
When first she bore her child and mine
always by my side, the source of my strength,
helping to turn the tide.

But there were candles to burn
the world was my concern;
while our home was her domain,
and the people were mine
while the children were hers to maintain;

So it was in those eighteen years and a day,
till I was detained; forced in prison to stay.


Suddenly she’s our sole support;
source of comfort,
our wellspring of Hope,
on her shoulders felt the burden of Life.

I fell in love again,
with the same woman the third time.
Looming from the battle,
her courage will never fade.

Amidst the hardships she has remained,
undaunted and unafraid.
She is calm and composed,
she is God’s lovely maid.
---------------------------------------

Lovely, eh?
