In Love with Kazaky!
‘You Want Me, You Love Me, You Hate Me – I Don’t Care!’
I first saw a video of KAZAKY, a Ukrainian dance group when a friend shares one of their catwalk video on Facebook. I am just amazed on how these four good-looking guys managed to dance and strut their stuff on the catwalk with grace and poise. Wearing high-heeled shoes is not easy even for a lady, much for men. I am impressed on how the men of Kazaky do it.
I’ve been watching their music videos and live performances via YouTube for almost a week now. It is a sign that I am totally in love with this group! The original members of Kazaky are Oleg Zhezhel, Arthur Gaspar, Cyril Fedorenko and Stas Pavlov. Mid last year, Stas Pavlov (my favorite) left the group and was replaced by Francesco Borgato.
Ika-13 Araw ng Enero 2012
Ang kalendaryo ay muli na namang pumatak sa ika-labing tatlo ng Biyernes at nagkataon pa na sa buwan ng Enero pa! Matagal na ang haka-haka tungkol sa dinadala diumanong malas ang ganitong petsa. Ewan ko kung may inbisibol anting-anting lang ako, pero lagi naman akong masaya sa tuwing sumasabit sa araw na ito.
Hindi naman talaga tungkol sa suwerte o malas ang nais kong isulat sa aking websayt. Gusto ko lamang ibahagi sa kapwa ko Pilipino ang mga gumugulo sa isipan ko noong mga nakaraang araw. Kapag nasa loob ka lamang ng bahay at halos walang ginagawa kundi ang matulog, kumain at magbabad sa harap ng kompyuter, kung minsan ay naglalakbay ang iyong isipan sa dako pa roon. Saan ‘yun? Ewan.
O eto na ha uumpisahan ko na. Halo-halo ito kaya huwag masyadong maguluhan. Kung sumasakit na ang ulo mo, eh di ‘wag ka nang magbasa. Hehehe.
Rihanna: The Last Song Syndrome Queen
RIHANNA is one of the hottest personalities in the international music in the recent years. With chart-topping hits, interesting personal life and dedication her craft, Rihanna is a superstar in her own right!
I love Rihanna and although I am not a die-hard fan of hers, I do love to sing and dance with her songs. Actually, I think her songs have the power to capture every listener’s attention and eventually keep it on loop until one gets tired of it. I can mention a number of awkward encounters wherein I sing out loud or dance in a public place one I hear a song of hers LOL. I’m sorry but I just can’t help it! Most of Rihanna’s songs can cause one the so-called ‘Last Song Syndrome’.
Want me to give examples? Here you go!
2011: Time to Learn, Grow and Let Go
It’s January 1, 2012 already and I just came from the rooftop of the place where I am staying now. The inner kid in me enjoyed the colorful fireworks display and I even started a few chats with some of our neighbors. It’s funny how many people can live in one building yet they don’t really interact.
Yesterday afternoon, I met up with two travel bloggers and accompany them look for some items in a nearby shopping place. It’s been months since I entered the tiangge area. I am not really a shopaholic and I don’t buy clothes and shoes not unless I really need it. I guess I’m just a lazy shopper and I would rather wear comfy clothes that exert extra effort to look good. Is that a good thing? I think not.
I talked to my mom via Skype and I truly miss my family and friends in the UK. Last NYE, we made noise by singing loud OPM songs via thru the Magic Sing.I think every OFW owns one to ease their homesickness and it does help!
If 2010 is the year of travel for me, I can say that 2011 is one rollercoaster ride. I experienced some uncertainties emotionally and financially, although these are not really problems if you take a look at it in a bigger picture. Sometimes, overanalyzing things can drive you crazy. Also, ‘Too Much of something is bad enough’, no matter how good (or bad) your intentions are. Sometimes, you need to take risks, sacrifices and let go. Learn to step back and try to see where all of these are headed to.
Remembering Tyron Perez
The news is out that Tyron Perez, a Starstruck avenger turned Kapamilya actor passed away. I am not sure about the details of his death as I write this post since everything I read on Twitter and Facebook are unconfirmed reports. Whatever the reason is, I am praying for him and his family.
Remember when I blogged about how I loved the first batch of Starstruck? I am an avid supporter of their batch and I think I saw almost every episode. I was in my senior year in high school then. After the Starstruck Ultimate Male and Female Survivors were revealed, the 14 then teenstars started touring around the Philippines making their fans happy.
I first met Tyron Perez in a mall show in Dagupan City. He was with Railey Valeroso. I cannot remember exactly on how I was able to contact Tyron (maybe thru Christian or Jade), but I’m glad I went despite the huge crowd. He sang onstage to promote his TV show for GMA-7 (Love to Love). I remember he sang the song ‘Like a Rose’ with that genuine smile on his face. Backstage, you can see the epitome of a typical probinsyano – he was quiet, smiling all the time and a gentleman.
My friend Ruby is a big fan of his so I am more than happy to tag her along (can’t find the pictures now T_T). Tyron and I managed to communicate via text in the succeeding days. Now I figured out why Christian and Jade consider him as one of their closest pals in showbiz.
Fast forward to 2008. SOP went to Dagupan for a mall show and it is timely because Jade Lopez is also a guest for that leg. By that time, Tyron Perez already starred in the critically-acclaimed Twilight Dancers. If I am not mistaken, he is the first Starstruck male alumna who bravely accepted such challenging role. When Jade told me that they will visit me at home after the show, I panicked LOL.
