Pilipinas Win na Win

July 30, 2010 · Filed Under tv · Comment 

So Wowowee’s officially out. Next up, Pilipinas, Win na Win!

It’s gonna premier tomorrow, and it will be hosted by Pinoy game show queen (and now, Presidential sister) Kris Aquino and Bad Boy Robin Padilla. Also co-hosting are Wowowee ladies Mariel Rodriguez, Valerie Concepcion, and Pokwang.

I dont really get to watch a lot of Wowowee, but I hope this new show will be better, or atleast be the same with Wowowee. It’s hard to topple Eat Bulaga, which Wowowee did, so I hope the power duo of Kris and Robin will do the trick. Anyway, by the looks of it, Robin Padilla will be singing some rock song (with the rock legends) to kick off the show. And who knows, a year from now, maybe Binoe will be up selling records to its future loyal audience too (ipods and MP3 players probably filled with Robin’s songs!) just like Willie Revillame’s novelty hits.

Good luck tomorrow! Break a leg!

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 11:1-13.

He was praying in a certain place, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples.”

He said to them, “When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread and forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the final test.”

And he said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend to whom he goes at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey and I have nothing to offer him,’ and he says in reply from within, ‘Do not bother me; the door has already been locked and my children and I are already in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’ I tell you, if he does not get up to give him the loaves because of their friendship, he will get up to give him whatever he needs because of his persistence.

And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

What father among you would hand his son a snake when he asks for a fish? Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg? If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the holy Spirit to those who ask him?”

Glee and Botox for Charice

July 24, 2010 · Filed Under celebrities · Comment 

By now, everyone already knows that our Charice is up for a role in famous American television series Glee, and that she just had a botox in preparation for it.

Now, I personally find it not okay that Charice had botox at her young age of eighteen. First, because Belo initially mentioned that she had Charice on botox to make her face thinner — and that when she got attacked for it, she changed her story to something related to TMJ. Charice is pretty on her own, and Glee casted her knowing she looks cute like that, so why change something that isnt wrong.

Oh the things people do to promote their services. It’s just sad that sometimes, people have to be used as promotional products just to have mileage. Anyway, I’m not against having yourself fixed or whatever. If you want it, and you have the money to do it, then go. What I find disturbing though is having it staged for personal gain.

Plus, Glee is about accepting one’s self. You’re Asian, accept it, be proud of it. You’re paraplegic, accept it, be proud of it. You’re gay, accept it, be proud of it. You have a cute round face, accept it, be proud of it.

Gleeks!

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 10:38-42.

As they continued their journey he entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him.

She had a sister named Mary (who) sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak.

Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me.”

The Lord said to her in reply, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her.”
