Pilipinas Got Talent: El Gama Penumbra

on Tuesday, October 25, 2011

    El Gamma Penumbra is one of my personal bet in the recent 3rd season of Pilipinas Got Talent. The talent they showcase was a shadow play that every Filipino at heart will make proud. The Way El Gamma showcase filipino culture, Philippine tourist spots and nationalism is simply amazing, they did it all in less than 3 minutes.. but sad to say they didn't win .. I voted them 15 times in text but still some Filipinos loves singing and the grand winner is yet another singer or singing group...

    Watch their performance:

Living in the Wild

on Friday, July 15, 2011


    Imagine living without money? It is hard, right? We need money to pay our bills, to  buy food, clothes, shelter and services. In able to survive we work hard to get paid and earn money just to spend on what we need.

   Some will answer only a tribe people don't need money. Come to think about it why are they still existing since they don't use money. They have a simple life and simple rules.
  I remembered when I was a Red Cross volunteer, we always go to mountain to help indigenous people giving them clothes, medicine, rice and sardines. To reach the tribe people you need a lot of strength  for mountain climbing and  a courage .
    Your tiredness will swept away upon seeing the tribe people welcoming you with their sweetest smile. The tribe people like  canned sardines than Maling, corned beef and even ask them why because I find it funny and told them its taste good but they told me nothing beats the fresh captured wild boar, chicken.. well I just shut up since it's true because the meat they are eating has no preservative. They love sardines because they only eat fish rarely and they love the taste of the sardines sauce.They will exchange the wild boar meat just to have the sardines Their hospitality is great and  let you experience living in the wild and they will protect you.
    Living in the wild for 1 week makes my heart younger again, literaly and figuratively speaking. The world in the mountain is a totally different from city life. You don't need to think of deadlines , money to spend for food, in forest, you will get it free, everything...from herbal medicine, to food,fruits or meat. I got to experience climbing trees again to eat fruits star apple,  mango, santol, guava, jackfruits, cashew or harvesting peanuts, cassava, cabbage. They are the sweetest because the fruits are ripened on the tree . All of them are free and no need to worry about spending a dime and all natural.
     You don't need to go to the gym in able to be fit... try catching a wild chicken or running for your life because the boar that they are catching is heading on your way , run for your life because thousands of bees trying to sting you, or how about balancing all your weight while walking in the slippery rocks of river..
     You don't need to buy a mineral water, just fetch in waterfalls and you will have a very cold water.
     When it is bath time, just get some aloe vera as your shampoo..
     If you want to experience sauna, ask them to go to hot spring.
     In the evening you don't need a mosquito repeler, just burn a coconut husk and you will have a good night sleeps.

     The only problems when you get home don't kiss the love of your life.

Where are they?

on Friday, July 8, 2011

   A real  great singer can stand out in a crowd of singer, they are the one that will last but sometimes because of their appearance and lack of publicity they began to fade in the limelight.  Where are they now? What happens to them? That's the question in my mind while listening to music.
    I remember all those  hopeful singer who joined in the Philippine singing contest. I  miss  seeing them in the limelight . They we're all good but their fame last only 15 minutes, for me they should be the one to  be admired not the pretending so called singer, doing novelty songs and in able to last longer for the fame they made some controversies but that's the reality the network will not prioritize those great singer.  I find it weird here in the Philippines the  two gossip host had an album but they are only compilation of the song and they are not the one who's singing the track or the actor that sings but not as good as the singer I listed. Here's the list of the Good singer that missing in the limelight they won in different singing contest in the Philippines and the reason why they didn't last.

Laarni Lozada:
After she won Pinoy Dream Academy, She pursue her study.

Her performance in PDA


Raki Vega : She won in " Born Diva " on ABS-CBN contest. The contest is to create a Philippine finest Diva, They change the look of every contestant from undergoing to plastic surgery, Liposuction, to the way they dress. Every contestant is great but Raki emerge among them. In the national television her boyfriend then proposed a marriage to her and accepted it. I guess that the reason why her fame didn't last she choose love than career.
    According to some gossip she is not happy the way the management want to build her, she have no control on what kind of music she really love, a  song that will touch lives and not too commercialized.
 Raki has a kid now. and she is making a comeback..
here's Raki Vega new single and video. Very inspiring and I'm happy to see her singing again.



Frenchy dy
Fame is so hard when you are fat! That's what happen to Frenchy Dy. Her fame didn't last because of her physical appearance.






Mau Marcelo :  Won in Pinoy Idol (Philippine Idol)... Same reason.. not sexy and they said ordinary looking girl... but for me she is one of the best.

Pinoy Biggest Loser

on Wednesday, June 29, 2011

    This show is relatively new to the Philippines and ABS-CBN acquired the rights to air the show locally. I'm watching the show because its remind of taking care of my health. Whenever  I see the contestant, I always remind myself not to be as fat as them.  Not because you are fat doesn't mean that you are healthy. I must admit I gained too much weight since I got lazy going to gym or walking, because I can't bare the heat and sometimes i don't have enough time because of my busy schedule. At night I'm too tired already. I just watch my calorie intake and less carbo.
     I don't watched the show much, but whenever I have time I tried to.. Sometime I get annoyed since Pinoy biggest loser show too much drama. Most contestant where obvious, they are doing something crazy or act that they are going to die in able to get the attention they want. The only thing Im excited on the show is the transformation. and also hoping at the end of the show the host Sharon Cuneta will loose some weight  too.

            I just borrowed some tag line from Paris Hilton Show... he!he!he! Just the tag line not the concept of the show since I'm not a  heir of a hotel mogul. Leave that crappy show since the show  about a spoiled heiress.  My site is about my thought on the latest happening around the world that  we can learn. Anything that is interesting! I'm not crazy but the world around us!
