Rhian Ramos endorses Samsung Galaxy Y Netphone Edition
For the past few days, Kapuso actress Rhian Ramos is actively twitting (@whianwamos) with the hashtag #smartnetphone. Some of her followers were asking her if she’s the new endorser of the Samsung Galaxy Y Netphone Edition. She kept on teasing them.
CONFIRMED!!! Rhian Ramos is the face of Smart’s Samsung Galazy Y Netphone Edition. It is also one of the new TVC’s of SMART featuring the new logo. I think her viral Super Bass video with Moymoy Palaboy is a big factor on why SMART chose her to be the celebrity endorser of the Samsung Galaxy Y edition. Add the fact that she’s a natural techie and she loves to tweet a lot… no matter if these are tweets about her showbiz commitments, replies to her fans or even the personal (and juicy?) status updates hehe 
On Airports, Departures and Arrivals
The Airport is such a busy place. Everyone is roaming around with their luggages and you will literally see people from different walks of life patiently waiting in line to put their bags on the check-in area. Most backpackers prefer the hand-carry option by bringing less clothes and stuff in order to save some money. They have different reasons on why they’re here: Majority flies to go on a vacation, some have work-related tasks to do while there are those who are eager to go home.
I consider the airport as one of my favorite hangout place no matter how big or small it is. For my domestic travels, I usually go two hours before my departure date, while I go to the check-in area three hours prior to the scheduled flight if i am going out of the country. It is really nice to compare flights beforehand in order to get cheaper plane tickets. You can still use your extra money to buy some snacks while waiting.
It is already a habit of mine to observe the passengers at the departure area especially if i am traveling alone. My laptop is useless when I can’t find an outlet so I tend to just sit in the corner and wait. I remember on my first solo moment at NAIA 1. I met a married couple already in their 50′s who are excited to visit their daughter in Dubai. They were excited and looking forward to their unica hija’s treat as she promised that they will shop ’till they drop.
‘It’s Our First Time’ with Solenn Heussaff & Gaz Holgate (Music Video Preview)
Wednesday is the ‘Official Solenn Heussaff Day‘. For the first time, I met the French/Filipina performer in person! Together with a number of bloggers, we went all the way to Republiq in Resort World Manila to cover the music video shoot of Solenn’s second single from her debut album.
Hot & Steamy scene - literally
Although I first read about her in magazines attending in socialite events and other fashion-related gatherings, I’ve always felt that Solenn is not really that intimidating. Glad that I am right with my gutfeel when we were finally introduced to her over lunch together with Gaz Holgate, her leading man in the music video.
Photos and Videos after the jump! CAUTION: Hotness overload!
Random Choose-Day Tuesday Ramblings
When FRUSTRATION strikes, it causes SLEEPLESS NIGHTS.
SLEEPLESS MORNING in my case. My sleeping routine got worse and even I am not happy about it. There are times wherein I wish I have a meeting somewhere or have a scheduled trip just for my body clock to adjust. My dark brown window curtain is not helping either. It’s too dark and the bed weather is not helping either. I blame climate change for everything. #walangmasisiLOL
Choose Your Destination
Anyway, it’s CHOOSE-DAY TUESDAY! I’ve been stuck here at home for the past three days, but it doesn’t mean that I am not doing something productive. Well, I tried to list down some things that I would like to accomplish in the coming years (long-term goals). I just realized that I lost my date sensibilities after a coffee shop threw my planner (did they or did someone.. nah) and I have a super disorganized schedule. Is it really Tuesday today?
Let me share some of the things I choose to do (at least write on an intermediate pad LOL)
A Toast to Bianca King’s Success!
The GMA-7 afternoon drama series Sinner or Saint will end today. I don’t have my own TV here in my room that’s why I am able to catch some episodes via Youtube, a habit a learned when I stayed abroad for three months. This project serves as Bianca King‘s first lead role in a teleserye after years of playing support and kontrabida roles to other Kapuso programs. Dennis Trillo plays a role where you’d end up loving and hating him at the same. It is also the comeback project of Alessandra de Rossi after her stint in ABS-CBN.
Bianca King: Now a Lead Drama Actress
Two months ago, a childhood friend of mine launched a new business in Dagupan City called Pretty Tipsy Nail & Waxing Salon. It is the first high-end nail art and waxing place in Pangasinan and they chose Bianca King as the celebrity endorser. She does represent the target market and yes, she’s simply gorgeous!
