Willie Revillame For Senator?

Rumor has it that Wowowee host Willie Revillame will vie for a Government position on 2010. The question is: Will he run for Senator or Vice President? If ever Willie runs for any position, will you vote for him?

Anyway, I saw this video by When In Manila on YouTube entitled Wowowee Willie BIG ANNOUNCEMENT Vice President - Philippine News. This is hilarious!



Akala mo manyak, yun pala malibog lang! What a slogan! =)

James Potter And The Hall Of Elders' Crossing

I was a little slow catching up to the wizarding world that I never realized there was this fan fiction called James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing. Imagine, I learned about this just 4 days ago, when I was looking for a Harry Potter pillow on eBay, and this was created last 2007! James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing was created by American computer animator George Norman Lippert. This is an unofficial and unauthorized continuation of the Harry Potter books. James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing is the story of James', Harry and Ginny Potter's son, first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

James Potter And The Hall Of Elders' Crossing
Oh, well, as a Harry Potter fan (who misses the magical world so much), I downloaded the PDF file and printed the first 80 pages. It will quench your thirst for more Hogwarts but James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing is far from the Harry Potter book series, author-wise. The story is full of magical stuff that you see in Harry Potter but the story-telling is not that good. What I'm saying here is that James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing is not a J.K. Rowling craft so what can you expect? At least that's what I think about the first 80 pages of it. And if you're wondering why I printed only the first 80 pages, the reason is this: I ran out of used typewriting paper. (Sorry, but I love recycling!)

The Pianist Director Roman Polanski Arrested in Switzerland

Filmmaker Roman Polanski was arrested in Switzerland at the request of the United States of America.

Roman Polanski

Roman Polanski had been wanted by the US authorities way back from 1978 because of pleading guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl but skipped bail and fled to France before sentence was pronounced.

Roman Polanski Facts:

  • Born Raymond Polanski on August 18, 1933
  • He spent the first three years of his life in Paris with his Jewish-Polish parents before the family returned to Poland
  • His mother died in an Auschwitz gas chamber.
  • His first full-length feature film after graduation, "Knife in the Water", won a number of awards and, most important for Polanski, was his ticket to the West.
  • In August 1969, Polanski's wife, actress Sharon Tate, and six others, were hacked to death by followers of cult leader Charles Manson at his Hollywood home in a random attack.
  • Polanski won a best director Oscar and Cannes Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) for "The Pianist"
  • He has also directed such film classics as "Chinatown", "Repulsion" and "Rosemary's Baby"
Roman Polanski was arrested trying to enter Switzerland to receive an award in Zurich.

The F Girls Reunite!

1999, when we first saw Daphne, Cher and Angel sitting on that ADORABLE couch, chatting about everything and anything with that Fantastic Plastic Machine theme as the background music. It was 2003 when Cher Calvin decided to pursue a broadcasting career in the U.S. and she was replaced by the equally gorgeous Amanda Griffin. I never thought I would see the original Fab 3 together once more....

F Reunion Episode
Fast forward to 2009, thanks to Olay Total Effects, we will be seeing Daphne Osena, Cher Calvin and Angel Aquino together again in a special F episode. The F Girls Reunion: Ten Years After will be aired on September 27, Sunday on ABS-CBN after TV Patrol Linggo.

What Are You Willing To Lose? by Lucero (Lyrics)

Teehee. I just can't help posting anything about One Tree Hill Season 7 lately, so I'm posting the lyrics of a song by Lucero "What Are You Willing To Lose?", which is also the title of One Tree Hill season 7 episode 2. Mind you, these words are hard to find, found it at the Lucero forum.

What Are You Willing To Lose?
by Lucero

So what if all my heroes are the losing kind?
We ended up with nothin’, but we put up a fight
And most of it was choices we never asked to choose
The rest of it was luck and now we’ve run out of that too
What are you willing to lose?
What are you willing to lose?
I spent every dollar just to try and earn a dime
I’d try to make you hate me just to try and make you mine
It doesn’t really matter if I’m telling you the truth
What you see is all that’s left, the rest is up to you
What are you willing to lose?
What are you willing to lose?
It’s just a losing fight and I’m the losing kind
No it ain’t the booze, I’m just beat up and bruised
Come on, come on
What are you willing to lose?
And don’t be so shocked girl, I’ve seen your tendencies before
Woke up next morning with them scattered on my floor
And come on little darlin’, can’t you cut us all some slack?
Cause the winners, they all took off babe and they’re never coming back
So what if all my heroes are the losing kind?
We ended up with nothin’, but we put up a fight
And most of it was choices we never asked to choose
The rest of it was luck and now we’ve run out of that too
What are you willing to lose?
What are you willing to lose?
It’s just a losing fight and I’m the losing kind
No it ain’t the booze, I’m just beat up and bruised
Come on, come on
What are you willing to lose?
And don’t be so shocked girl, I’ve seen your tendencies before
Woke up next morning with them scattered on my floor
And come on little darlin’, can’t you cut us all some slack?
Cause the winners, they all took off babe and they’re never coming back
It’s just a losing fight and I’m the losing kind
No it ain’t the booze, I’m just beat up and bruised
Come on, come on
What are you willing to lose?
---------------------

By the way, Mia (Kate Voegele) will have an appearance in episode 2. I guess she and Haley Scott (Bethany Joy Galleotti) are up to some recording. I bet they will debut a new, lovely song. Better check out this blog again because I'm 99% per cent sure that I will be posting something about the new song of Mia and Haley. Watch One Tree Hill 702 "What Are You Willing To Lose" on Monday night!

Got The Updated Air21 Rates!

As a newbie in terms of online shopping/selling thru Multiply (airbrushed shirts, anyone?), I'm not really familiar of the shipping rates. But I found out that many online sellers/buyers prefer their items be shipped by Air21, maybe because Air21 rate is much cheaper than LBC.
Air21
To understand more about the rate scale,delivery zones, and the rates for their Sulight Pouches and Boxes, Hebigat box, and Bigahe, I contacted Air21. This is the 2nd time I emailed them and as always, their reply is present in my inbox the next day. They emailed me some files containing the rates and rate scale and more info about Air21. unfortunately, I cannot share with you the whole updated Air21 Rates because of this reason:

Please notify the sender immediately by e-mail if you have received this e-mail by mistake and delete this e-mail from your system."

Yep. For me, it just means that I'm not allowed to share the whole thing with you. If you want information about Air21 rates, please visit their site at www.air21.com.ph and email them yourself or call Air21 Hotline Number (02) 854 2100. And thank you to Mr. Edwin R.

Out Of Reach by Matthew Perryman Jones (Lyrics)

Here's the lyrics of the Matthew Perryman Jones and Trent Dabbs song Out of Reach. Out Of Reach was featured on One Tree Hill Season 7 pilot episode last night. I'm not sure if Out Of reach debut was on One Tree Hill, but I think it is, since the album release is just 2 days ago. This is a beautiful song. Oh, well, for me, all songs featured on One Tree hill are all beautiful. :D

Out of reach by Matthew Perryman Jones
Out Of reach (Lyrics)
by: Matthew Perryman Jones

You're always bound to fall
there's nothing you can do
the weight of gravity begins
to pull you down again
so what are you to do now?
stuck between the hope and doubt
you get so close to clarity
makes you question everything

You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
You're so far away
Am I just out of reach?

We keep talking in circles
staring out with empty eyes
wanting to be known again
but so afraid of letting in
so do i leave it all to history?
will you ever answer me ?
do you still recognize my voice
or is it lost among the noise

You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
You're so far away
Am I just out of reach?

While the world unravels
we're kicking at shadows
and everyone around us
is making up chaos
oh, I cannot find you
I'm walking like I'm blinded
am I saying anything at all?

You're so far away
so far away from me
Is it starting to break
underneath my feet
Is it set in stone
could someone tell me please?
Am I all alone?
Am I just out of reach?

That's it! If you want to listen to the song, or buy the mp3 and download it, check this out. Matthew Perryman Jones album Out Of Reach was made available last September 14, 2009 under MPJ Music.

Manny Pacquiao Is The New Head and Shoulders Shampoo Endorser

Who knew back then that Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao will become a shampoo endorser? I was very (yes, very) surprised when I saw the new Head and Shoulders TV Ad with Manny "PacMan" Pacquiao! Sorry, but still can't find a video of the TV commercial on YouTube. I laughed so hard when my mom remarked upon watching the Head and Shoulders Shampoo ad: "Maganda ba ang buhok ni Manny???"
