Tyron Perez Suicide due to Marital and Gambling Problems says Wife Liv Espino

The death of Tyron Perez former Starstruck Alum and Telenovela actor, who has appeared in movies such as Twilight Dancers and Metlogs. He was found dead last December 29 in Valenzuela.


Tyron Perez during his recent endoscopy last November

Tyron Perez was a dutiful and devoted husband to his wife Liv Espino, a flight attendant for Emirates Airlines. Tyron would cook for her, iron her stewardess' uniform and clean their apartment while she was away on flights abroad.

One of Tyron's final tweets - "All parts of the human body get tired eventually- except the tongue."

As for his wife, she is not so tongue-tired, as she's quick to go an a tell-all interview sans make-up to tell the public that her husband shot himself while on talking on the phone with her.

From ABS-CBN News:

“Magpapakamatay na ako, magpapakamatay na ako,’ sabi niya. ‘Gusto mong marinig?’ Akala ko joke lang,” she said on Friday. “Binaril niya ‘yung sarili niya. Parang, bam. Parang nahulog na malaking book, parang ganoon. Nahulog na ‘yung phone. Hello ako nang hello wala na.”

She is also quick to confess what the public has never known about her husband, he has a gambling problem which has amounted to huge financial trouble for them. She could have kept mum about this til his funeral was at least over. Or she could have asked for a lawyer/spokesperson/family member to speak on her behalf and request for privacy. But nooo, she had to go on the news and say every detail.



Days before the incident, she tweeted that her Toyota Altis 2009 Model with plate number ZSP875 was stolen. Days later Tyron was found dead on the backseat of the said stolen car with a gunshot wound to the head. Police are still investigating the incident.

Currently, Tyron Perez' wake is being held at Loyola Memorial Park in Sucat, Paranaque City Philippines.

Ramgen Revilla Janelle Manahan Scandal: Viral Video rocks the Ramgen Murder Case



Just a day shy of 2012, a video of murder victim Ramgen Revilla and his girlfriend Janelle Manahan was initially released on Facebook and has gone viral on social media. Janelle Manahan has spent the last month in recovery after suffering gunshot wounds to the face.

Ramgen Bautista was killed by a masked intruder in BF Homes Subdivision in ParaƱaque City last October. Janelle and Ramgen's sister Ramona Revilla was inside the room during the attack.


Ramgen & Janelle during better times

So who is the possible source of this video? And why was this intimate video uploaded? Is this an attempt to discredit the witness Janelle Manahan? Would this video have come from the cellphone or digicam of the deceased found at the crime scene? Around November, specific text messages from the Ramgen's cellphone surfaced revealing financial squabbles between siblings.

But according to Janelle Manahan’s lead counsel Argee Guevarra, Ram Revilla's siblings took possession of his belongings after his death. More intimate videos of Janelle and Ramgen are yet to surface as stated by her lawyer.

An in-depth look at Janelle Manahan's affidavit, an exclusive by Raisa Robles

To those looking for the video, it is all over facebook and twitter

Rhian Ramos Mo Twister Kissing Video: Christmas Comes Early on YouTube



Rhian Ramos and Mo Twister Kissing Video is all over YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. Easy to find believe me... Mo and Rhian sitting on a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G! This video is better than ice cream!

"Show them how you do a side kiss..." - Rhian Ramos

The video has Rhian Ramos on top of Mo Twister on the bed with clothes on, Rhian starts making out with Mo and engages in what she calls MO's side kisses. Mo Twister gropes and fondles Rhian's boobs for awhile rather playfully (yeah, lucky guy!). Nothing so extremely scandalous about the video, except for the dry humping and Rhian could have been better off with someone else. Someone more respectful of their privacy as GF/BF.

"I love her..." - Mo Twister

Rhian Ramos' current boyfriend is Jeric Lacson, son of Philippine senator Ping Lacson.

In less than 24 hours, you can bet the whole country has downloaded and watch the whole video. Sad that it has to come at the time of the Sendong tragedy which needs more attention than these two pinoy celebs...

Top 5 Security Questions by Call Center Agent Shan Cruz Rivera


Call Center Disgrace Shan Cruz Rivera

Viral videos of a Call Center Agent on the hijinx has spread like wildfire on Facebook. Shan Cruz Rivera took cellphone videos of himself while taking customer service calls. So what's the fuss about Shan Cruz Rivera? Why are fellow call center agents calling him a disgrace?



He broke protocol. He calls himself Lady Gaga. And gave one subscriber a trippy run-a-round on the customer service hotline by asking him 5 inane security questions.

Read the full chat transcript of Call Center Agent Shan Cruz Rivera and the caller here:

Security Question #1:
Shan Cruz Rivera: What was your high school mascot?
Caller: The Tigers
Shan: That is correct!

Security Question #2:
Shan Cruz Rivera: How many bones do you have?
Caller: How many bones do I have in my body? I don't know how many bones
I have in my body [laughs] is that a question?
Shan: Yes, that's your security question.
Caller:Can you give me a clue? I don't remember putting that in there...
Shan: your answer is 3,000 plus
Caller: Oh okay. I don't remember that question



Security Question #3:
Shan Cruz Rivera: What is your favorite food?
Caller: Steak or hot wings
Shan: The answer here is Adobo!
Caller: Say that again? I don't know whether its steak or hot wings
Shan: Its Adobo sir! Its not a steak
Caller: Hot wings?
Shan: Its Adobo, Sir! ADOBO!
Caller: Okay so its hotwings
*note: Adobo is a pork dish with soy sauce

Security Question #4:
Shan Cruz Rivera: What is the biggest V-vird!?

Caller: I don't know... I don't remember those...
Shan: The answer is your WIFE!
Caller: Okay my wife
Shan: Your wife stole it
Caller: Okay
Shan: Okay give me one second here
END OF VIDEO.

According to his Facebook page, Shan Cruz Rivera works at TRG Philippines (The Resource Group), but on the viral video we can clearly see the letters WNS on his company ID. A female co-worker is also visible at the start of the video and midway a janitor is seen collecting trash.
Laughs from co-workers are also heard in the background.



So what's the status of Shan Cruz Rivera's employment? Fired most likely, banned from the call center industry pretty much. The caller was a good sport BTW! You could actually picture this poor caller's face going- WTF!? As for the co-workers, probably a work suspension til this blows over. What do you think?

At si Kris Aquino Muna Before Typhoon Sendong Victims!?

After the President’s attendance at a Christmas party thrown by the PSG, which happened in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Sendong, broke out on twitter. Another Aquino is on the news, none other than his media hog aka Queen of all Media sister, Kris Aquino. Reports of Kris Aquino's disaster relief efforts are going viral on Facebook.




FROM FACEBOOK:

"A friend of mine who's volunteering at ABS-CBN right now texted me. She said they were already at Consolacion to distribute the relief goods to the people, the people were already lining up, when suddenly they rerouted and went back to Balulang. The reason? Kris Aquino is there and they have to fetch her and go back to Consolacion so that she can also help.
Imagine the faces of the people already waiting for the relief goods; All hungry and thirsty and still covered in mud and they all needed fresh clothes to change into...They were shocked to see the ABS-CBN trucks leaving. All they can do is watch and wait for them to come back again. That's what my friend witnessed just a while ago."

Hindi talaga titigilan ni Kris ang bayan, 'no ? Sige lang...

Kris kailangan mo ba pa kabogin at pantayan ang publicity ng Bagyong Sendong para ikaw pa rin ang pag-usapan?

Is this 'chismis' or a valid rant by a rescue volunteer? What do you think?

In any case, let's do our own efforts to help our fellow kababayans, donate through the Philippine Red Cross at http://www.redcross.org.ph/donatenow

Higad sa Salad sa Chic-Boy Timog: Caterpillar anyone?

Chic-Boy: Chicken at baboy restaurant is known for their Cebu Lechon Manok and Cebu Lechon Liempo.

Now making the viral rounds on Facebook called the Chickboy scandal or Chic-Boy Restaurant Scandal on a plate:

Taken from the Facebook page of the customer who ate the said caterpillar

Chickboy Scandal
Date of Scandal: November 21, 2011
Time of Scandal: 3:54-4:00pm
Place: ChickBoy Timog

A Break-Up letter from an Upset customer

Dearest ChickBoy,

I've been a biggest fan of you. I love your chicks, I love your boys. I love your chicken and i love your baboys, I even love your nilasing na hipon and your sinigang sa miso na salmon. I chose to have an affair with you because you seemed to have a cool place plus the staff seems to be nice and definitely you've got good food! You were my trophy then. I tried to brag you around my friends.I can see how they envy me whenever i am with you.

Pero ngayon ko lang nakilala ang totoong CHICKBOY. Kung sino ka, at kung pano mo ko tratuhin. Dalawang linggo na ang nakakalaipas mula ng pinakain mo ako ng ginisang kangkong na may pagka-laki laking bulate o caterpilar o kung ano man yun.

Gusto ko lang ipaalala sayo kung ano ang mga pangyayari nun, nung hindi mo ko hinarap. Matapos kong umorder pati ang kasama ko ng dalawang lechong liempo,isang regular ice tea, at isang botomless,pati na ang bago niyong labas na salmon sashimi at siyempre pa,hindi mawawala ang pagkasarap sarap na ginisang kangkong. Ang total bill namin ay 358php...Sa pagkakaalam ko yung lang ang inorder ko at hindi kasama ang bulate.

Nagyon habang ngasab ako ng ngasab sa aming kinakain, napansin ng kasama ko na oily yung kangkong. sabi ko "Masarap nga yun, oily". nung tinikman ko, ok naman, para lang may petroleum gelly ka lang na kinakain with kangkong, pero ok lang. kumain pa rin kami, may natira pang konti sa kangkong sabi ko ako nalang uubos sayang. Tapos Bigla nalang may sumulpot na mahaba at mataba na nilalang sa kangkong. sabi ko "Ano to?", sabi ng kasama ko "Ay, baka talong". Natawa pa ko, sabi ko "Ang galing may libreng talong!" Sinubukan kong hiwain ito sa pamamagitan ng tinidor, pero ang kunat nito. hanggang sa itinihaya ko ito. At sa pagtihaya ng nilalang, tumambad sa akin ang kanyang mga paa at pati ang mukha nito na parang nagsasabing " Alam mo this time pwede kang magreklamo, tutal nasipsip mo na buong pagka bulate ko, at isa pa obvious naman na ang laki ko".

Alam mo Chickboy hindi naman ako mahirap ka relasyon, sa totoo lang hindi ko alam kung malas lang ako sa mga ganitong bagay, kasi dati sa ibang kainan, may ipis na maliit na kasama sa pagkain ko, langaw, uod na maliit.. Pero ito naman, sobra naman sa laki na imposibleng hindi mo makita! So, siyempre sa hitsura pa lang siguro naman ok lang na mag complain ako no? pati nga mga waiters niyo nagulat sa sobrang laki, yung iba nga kinuhaan pa ng picture. Tapos yung supervisor niyong hindi ko itatago ang pangalan na si Glaiza, namutla talaga, tumawag kagad sa Management. halos ayaw na kong harapin. ang sabi lang niya sa akin. "Mam, paltan nalang ho namin yung kangkong" what??? Sa tingin mo ba kakain pa ko ng mga pagkain niyo pagkatapos ng lahat? na nasipsip ko na ang buong pagkabulate ng nilalang sa kangkong ko?. Kumalma naman ako, pero yun pa rin ang sinabi ko. sabi niya "Ma'm ano ho bang gusto niyo?".

Strike 2!

siyempre sinagot ko "Ang gusto kong malaman kung bakit may malaking bulate sa kangkong ko at hindi niyo nakita!". Lalong namutla yung Glaiza at sabi "Mam babayaran nalang po namin lahat ng kinain niyo". Mainit pa ang ulo ko, pero tumango nalang ako. Pero binawi ko rin ito after awhile, mga limang minuto, kasi gusto ko nalang i take out ang kangkong na may bulate. Malapit ko na sanang palampasin ng dumating ang magiting niyong head waiter na di ko na alam ang pangalan.

Sabi ko kasi kay Glaiza, i take out ko yung kangkong na may bulate.E ayun na nga, etong si head waiter sumabat na ang sabi "Mam, wait lang ho, kasi nirereview ho pa namin yung sa cameras, kasi may mga naka-install na cameras dito eh"

Strike 3!

Ah ganon, hindi ako tanga, at alam ko kung ano ang gusto mong sabihin pwes inunahan ko na. sabi ko "Mabuti pa i review niyo ng malaman niyo kung sino naglagay ng malaking bulate sa kangkong ko! at makita niyo rin kung gaano ako sumuka pagkakain ko ng kangkong niyo!, akin na, akin na ang tinake out kong kangkong na may bulate!" aba strike 4 humirit pa ang waiter na ito at sinabing "Naku, mam pag ho binayaran na kayo hindi niyo na ho makukuha yung kangkong."

Strike 4!

Aba, ako pa pala ang mukang pera. eto ang sabi ko "Kuya, di ka ba nakikinig? sinabi ko na kanina pa kay Glaiza, na di na ko magpapabayad ng kinain namin ang gusto ko lang yung kangkong na may bulate! ngayon, ibigay mo sa akin yung kangkong ko kasi binayaran ko yon!kaya akin na ang kangkong na may bulate!" hindi na nakaimik pa si kuya at ang lahat. edi nataranta kayo ngayon. May meeting ako nung hapon ding iyo at kailangan ko ng umalis. Sabi ko" Excuse me, may meeting pa ako babalik ako mamayang gabi, at mamayang gabi ibigay niyo na sa akin ang kangkong na may bulate at ipakausap niyo nalang sa akin may ari nito para hindi na kayo ma mroblema" . Sa totoo lang naawa pa ko, dahil mga tauhan lang sila at hindi nila alam kung anong gagawin sa mga ganitong sitwasyon.

So bumalik nga ko kinagabihan.. Pinaharap niyo sa akin yung isa niyo pang supervisor o pang gabi, sabi niya tinapon na raw yung kangkong na may bulate, pero tinawag ko yung Glaiza. Sabi niya "Ay mam hindi pa ho namin tinatapon", ano ba yan sobrang halatang nagsisinungaling kayong dalawa.. So si supervisor or manager na pang gabi, inexplain sa akin kung ano ang proseso niyo ng pagluluto ng kangkong. Sabi ko, nasa proseso ba ng pagluluto ang paghuhugas ng gulay?. You're not getting my point. Since wala kayong maisagot, nilagay niyo ko sa isang tabi tapos bumalik kayo kasa ang isang food checker at dalawang pulis.

Akala ko yung pulis, yung kami ang nagpadala, since na reklamo na namin sa kamias station na wala rin naman palang nagawa. Ngayon, ang akala ng mga pulis na ito masisindak niyo ko, well well well nagkamali ka..dahil sa pagkakataong ito ako ang tama at ako ang complainant! at sasabihin pa sa akin ng mga pulis na ito na, ang mali ng isa ay hindi mali ng lahat…ang point dito may sinabi ba akong ganun? ang point dito bakit may bulate sa kangkong ko!
tapos hihiritan pa ako, na may food checker kayo, na one year na kayong operational. Tinanong ko siya kung siya ang manager, hindi ko na hinintay kung tumango man siya o hindi. sabi ko

" Pwes ang pangit ng management niyo! Alam niyo, kung kayo takang taka kung bakit may bulate sa kangkong ko, mas lalo na ako!Dahil NASIPSIP KO LANG NAMAN ANG BUONG PAGKABULATE NIYA. Ngayon, kung iniisip niyo na ako ang naglagay ng nilalang diyan, sana man lang hindi ko ginisa sa kakainin kong kangkong at lasap na lasap ko ang laman ng bulateng yan! ngayon, kung ayaw ibigay sa akin ang kangkong kong may bulate, kumuha kayo ng limang bulate at sipsipin niyo sa harap ko ok na ko! hindi niyo na kailangang kainin yung balat tutal yung laman lang naman nakain ko!"

Ayun, natahimik kayo..nag alisan na sila,medyo natawa pa nga sa monologue ko. Tapos in the end after more than 30 min of waiting. nag reklamo na ako at kailangan kong umalis. Yung mga pulis, niyaya ako sa loob ng room. Pumunta naman ako at sinundan ako ng kasama ko.

At tong mga pulis nato ang unang tanong.."Ano ho ba ang gusto niyo?" pwes sinagot ko siya " kuya, paulit ulit? pa-ulit ulit? ikaw ang sumagot ng tanong mo! ang gusto ko yung kangkong na may bulate"! tapos natahimik siya, sinabi niya na mam, kasi medyo napataas ang boses niyo dun sa labas.

Nilaksan ko ang boses ko na pang main theater ng ccp..sabi ko," Ako pa ngayon ang may kasalanan!ako na nga nakakain ng bulateng pagkalakilaki! at isa pa, una sa lahat, bakit niyo kasi ako nilagay sa gitna ng mga customers niyo? at isa pa, bakit ikaw ang kausap ko? part owner ka ba ng chickboy?"ayun natahimik ang pulis patola.. sabi ng kasama ko. "bakit ba kampi kayo sa kanila eh kami ang complainant! at isa pa kaya gusto namin kunin yung kangkong na may bulate kasi gusto namin kayo ireklamo sa BFAD. bigyan lang ng leksiyon."

Sabi ko."alam niyo, kung kayo nag SORRY nalang hindi na siguro nangyari yung ganito!" papano, ang yayabang pa, napaka defensive kagad. hindi aminin ang mali! sabi ng pulis.."mam, di pa ho ba sila nagsorry?" sabi ko "hinde!!!inexplain niyo lang naman sa akin ang tungkol sa pagnenegosyo, kung papano dinedeliver ang mga gulay niyo at kung papano niyo pinapatakbo ang chickboy!!!"….

Anyway, bago pa makagawa ako ng gulo, pinakalma na ko ng kasama ko at aalis nalang kami…gusto ko lang sabihin sa'yo CHICKBOY na wag niyo kong lekturan sa pagnenegosyo mag seminar muna kayo ng TUNGKOL SA SANITATION, HOW TO DEAL WITH CUSTOMERS, AND HOW TO BE HUMBLE!

At sa tingin ko dapat rin kayo manood ng mga bagong episodes sa KNOWLEDGE CHANNEL UPANG MALAMAN NIYO KUNG PAPANO ANG TAMANG PAGNENEGOSYO AT MALAMAN ANG "BATUKTALI" sa pagnenegosyo! 10 episodes yun. Panoorin niyo LAHAT!


At ngayong pasko lalo na't maraming pamilya ang mag bonding sa labas at definitely kakain, sana Maging maiingat kayo sa mg pagkaing sineserve niyo. At kung mangyari muli yun, isipin niyo ang kung kayo ang nasa posisyon ng customer. Minsan naiisip ko, nung sa karinderya ako kumakain, wala pa akong na experience na ganito. Kung kelan sa mga mas mahal at mas established pa na restaurant, dun pa pumapalya!

At para sa yo CHICKBOY I'm ending this relationship! Gaya ni KC and Piolo, Ni Rhian at ni Mo twister I'm ending this relationship with a bang! Full of controversy.

Goodbye CHICKBOY may you rest in peace just like the poor HUMONGOUS CATERPILLAR WHICH COULD'VE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL MARIPOSA, ONLY IF I HADN'T EATEN IT.

P.S.

BTW, sent you some pics as a souvenier!!! Enjoy!!

Not yours anymore,
The Customer who ate Kangkong with BULATE




Official Reply from the ChicBoy Management via Facebook:

THE COMPETITOR IS DESPERATE!!!

There are rumors going around Facebook that a caterpillar (or "bulate" as they call it) was found in our Ginisang Kangkong sa Bawang. If you are familiar with Chic-Boys ginisang kangkong sa bawang, our kangkong is cut into bits. HOW COME IN THE PHOTO THEY POSTED, THE CATERPILLAR IS WHOLE?

We are not surprised with this demolition job. We have only been in the market for a year and a half and we have grown to 64 opened stores and 48 under construction. Do you think the competition will just take us sitting down?

We are entrepreneurs who have good business ethics. We will build our name and business by giving our best to our customers and not destroy the name of our competitor for our gain. You be the judge!!!!

Who is Kimpoy Feliciano?

Kimpoy Feliciano (aka Paolo "Kimpoy" Vivas Feliciano) is a social media Filipino teen sensation. He has built his fanbase by being "pa-cute" with his "pinoy banats" and love musings via youtube, twitter and tumblr.



Amazingly, he has amassed his popularity without going through the machinations of local showbiz though if he keeps this up, he's bound for it. Blame his luvies, his legion of tween fans who can't stop with the LIKEs and the tweets.



If you still don't get why he's so popular, the kid has a couple of things going for him- he's easy on the eyes (di guwapo per se pero has that boy-next-door-charm). Just think "online pinoy version ni Justin Bieber" the kid acts out a performance and his quips can often be entertaining and memorable.

What's the Title of the Song Played in the Selecta Cornetto Disc TV Commercial?

You may find a lot of Pinoy kids and old biddies singing out K-I-S-S-I-N-G while enjoying a cold Cornetto this December. So what's that song called from the popular Cornetto Ice Cream TVC? Is there a full version? Oh you bet there is!


The male model looks a bit like MGG (Matthew Gray Gubler from Criminal Minds)


The Cornetto Disc song is called Hey Daydreamer by Somedaydream. The synth-pop ditty is part of a musical solo project by artist Rez Toledo.

Kung na LSS ka sa kanta ng Selecta Cornetto Ice Cream TV Commercial at hinahanap-hanap mo, here's a really sweet treat- the official music video and the acoustic version.



Hey Daydreamer by Somedaydream Lyrics


Oh, you could just pretend to be with her all day
Remember the feeling when you first held hands today
Imagine her in your favorite white dress
Smiling at you as if she thinks that you're the best

She tells you you and me, sitting on a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G
You tell her, "Baby, hear me out. Will you marry me tonight"
We're in this make believe reality and, baby, it's just you and me
Make believe reality but, baby, this is killing me (make believe, make believe)

'Cause when tonight she holds you tight
You wonder if this fantasy is right
'Cause when reality comes to play
You realize you couldn't make her stay

Hey, daydreamer
You've gotta be prepared to leave her in your fantasy
'Cause when it's over
You've gotta make sure that it's you who'll be with her

Oh, you could be her soldier, her knight in shining armor
I'm sure you wanna make her feel how much you love her
And you wish to God that she can see the world in your eyes
So she can realize that she's the girl in your mind

And you don't mind
If you don't make it out alive
'Cause you knew right from the start
That she's such a boy killer (I'm killing, I'm dying)

'Cause when tonight she holds you tight
You wonder if this fantasy is right
'Cause when reality comes to play
You realize you couldn't make her stay

Hey, daydreamer
You've gotta be prepared to leave her in your fantasy
'Cause when it's over
You've gotta make sure that it's you who'll be with her

Hey, daydreamer
You've gotta be prepared to leave her in your fantasy
'Cause when it's over
You've gotta make sure that it's you who'll be with her

And I couldn't believe we're dreamin'
I couldn't believe we're leavin' this world
For one with more fantasy, just you and me
So that tonight we both can finally be, can finally be

Hey, daydreamer
Hey, daydreamer
You've gotta be prepared to leave her in your fantasy
'Cause when it's over
You've gotta make sure that it's you who'll be with her

Hey, daydreamer
You've gotta be prepared to leave her in your fantasy
'Cause when it's over
You've gotta make sure that it's you who'll be with her

Woh oh oh oh, woh oh oh oh, woh oh oh ohh

PO2 Neil De Guzman Video: Domestic Violence, Police Brutality or Just Plain WTF! Abuse



"Ako si PO2 Neil De Guzman, at papatayin ko na ito!"



Making the rounds on facebook, the PO2 Neil De Guzman video

Excerpts from the video:

Woman: Ikaw unang nanakit!

PO2 Neil De Guzman: Ha! bakit hindi? Bakit Hindi [slaps woman, followed by expletives]

Woman: Ano ginawa ko?

PO2 Neil De Guzman: Ginawa mo? Sinira mo kita ko... pag naalala ko yung inubos mong pera! [followed by expletives]... Naka-camera ba ito?

PO2 Neil De Guzman:Bakit mo tinatakpan mukha mo? Tingin mo babasagin ko mukha mo?... ano maghiwalay na tayo?... lalabas ka dun at dun ka maghihiyaw?... gusto kitang patayin! [followed by expletives]


Sige girl lumaban ka, isumbong naten kay Tulfo!

Are they a married couple? mag-jowa? bugaw o cuddler raw? There's talk of a missing Php2,000 peso loot, showing up at the kampo and oh that elusive promotion. Regardless of what you hear in the video, this girl needs help. Obviously, this girl is going through the wringer of abuse under the hands of this Manila policeman. The viral video of PO2 Neil De Guzman just broke a few hours ago and should get some steam by the time I tune in for the evening news.

As for PO2 Neil De Guzman, say bye-bye to that promotion of yours!

KC Concepcion: The Buzz Interview with Boy Abunda

KC Concepcion's Statements from The Buzz Interview with Boy Abunda last November 27, 2011:



Her First Showbiz Love
"It’s my first showbiz relationship, pareho kami ng trabaho. So I think the best thing is that natuto ako na parang naging mas mature talaga sa relationship na ito. First relationship ko rin na seryoso talaga to the point na may mga bagay na hindi naman ako komportable, nagagawa mong tanggapin kasi mahal mo and you choose to accept. Mas naiintindihan ko kung ano ’yung pagmamahal. It sounds corny pero ’yun, mas accepting ako."

What Piolo Wants:
"May mga hinahanap ako na basic lang na hahanapin ng isang babae sa isang boyfriend, sa isang lalaki. Ayoko na magbigay ng details, kasi ayokong siraan siya. Pero let’s just say na lahat talaga, kaya ko, lahat! Lahat ng kung may anak siya, tinanggap ko ‘yun. Tinanggap ko ‘yung anak niya! Kahit may mga times na hindi ko siya maintindihan, tinanggap ko. Kasi, sinasabi sa akin ng mga kaibigan namin na personality niya ‘yun. Kapag may mga bagay na hindi ako sang-ayon, na ginagawa sa isang babae, tinatanggap ko. Kasi, naniniwala akong mabait siyang tao. May mga bagay na hindi ko na kayang lunukin. Hindi ko na kaya ‘yun tanggapin...Kasalanan ko rin ito sa sarili ko. Kasi siyempre, ginusto ko naman ito, ‘di ba? So, kasalanan ko rin sa sarili ko. Kasi, pinaglaban ko pa, eh. Saka sobra-sobra talaga akong nagtiwala. Sobra."

More than a Woman:
"Marami pong naklaro sa akin, yung mga kaya ko at di ko kayang gawin bilang babae na minsan… kailangan mo ring intindihin ‘yung sarili mo. Kasi, bigay lang ako nang bigay. Saka iniintindi ko lahat. Parang masyado akong nagbigay ng benefit of the doubt sa lahat. Intindi lang ako nang intindi. Tanggap lang ako nang tanggap. Hindi pala dapat ganun."

The Break-Up:
"PJ knows exactly why we broke up. He knows exactly why. And araw-araw na nakikita ko siya, araw-araw na magkasama kami, parang tug of war talaga. Kasi, ito ‘yung taong minahal ko, o mahal mo, pero sobra akong nasasaktan ngayon. Pero mahal ko siya, pero hindi na talaga puwede. Araw-araw na magkasama kami, iniisip ko, ‘Dito lang tayo sa Amerika nagkaroon ng panahon na tayong dalawa lang, ni hindi natin na-enjoy?’ Dahil hindi na gagana."



The Truth About Piolo Pascual
"Bigla na lang akong maiiyak, kasi hindi pala ako okay. Ewan ko kung bakit, paanong nangyari, ‘yung pain at saka ‘yung sama ng loob naging galit, na talagang nagugulat din ako kasi first time ko na rin na parang napapamura na rin ako. Hindi naman ako ganun, and bigla na lang akong maiiyak kasi hindi pala ako okay. And then siya, natatawa lang siya. Kapag nakikita kong ini-interview siya, idadaan lang niya sa joke. Feeling ko, ‘Bakit ikaw ganyan, ako ganito? Bakit parang hanggang sa huli, mag-isa lang ako rito?’ Anong sasabihin ko sa pamilya ko? Anong sasabihin ko kay Mama na tanong nang tanong kung kami pa ba o hindi na? Kasi, kapag sinabi kong hindi na, magtatanong siya, ‘Bakit?’ Anong isasagot ko sa kanya? Anong isasagot ko sa lola ko (Elaine Cuneta) na mahal na mahal siya? Hindi ko masabi kasi, eh. Hindi ko talaga masabi sa kahit na sinong tao kung anong nangyari. Hindi ko talaga puwedeng sabihin."

Chances Are: Odds are Against Us
"Nag-sorry naman siya. Binigyan ko siya ng second chance, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh chance. Pagdating ng eighth chance, parang na-realize ko, hindi lahat ng problema, nadadaan sa kilig. Hindi lahat ng problema, nadadaan sa tawa. Hindi lahat, nadadaan sa kilig. Kasi, ang galing-galing niyang magpakilig! Ang tanga-tanga ko nga, Tito Boy, eh. Dumating lang siya sa point na parang, ‘Sandali lang, parang hindi na natin inaano ‘yung totoong nangyayari. Kasi, titingnan ka lang niya, ay, wala na, nakalimutan ko na lahat! Lagi na lang gano’n."

Am Not Perfect:
"Naniniwala naman ako na ‘pag sinasabi ni PJ na minahal niya ako, naniniwala naman ako na meron namang katotohanan ‘yon. Pero masakit man sabihin, hindi ako ‘yung… siguro nag-fail din ako dahil hindi ako ‘yung kailangan niya sa buhay niya. Or hindi ako ‘yung hinahanap niya sa buhay niya. And hindi ko maibigay sa kanya ‘yung kailangan niya. Ang hinihingi ko lang sa kanya, PJ, please huwag kang magagalit sa akin dahil nasaktan ako. Huwag kang magagalit sa akin dahil hindi ako perpekto. Huwag kang magagalit sa akin dahil may mga bagay na hindi ko na kayang intindihin at tanggapin. Huwag kang magagalit sa akin kung kailangan ko munang maramdaman ito lahat. Kung kailangan ko munang mag-respond at mag-react kung paano normal na mag-react ang isang babae sa sitwasyon ko, please."

Justice for Given Grace Cebanico: UPLB Student and DOST Scholar



A very tragic and brutal thing to happen to a young and promising lady. Her name says it all, she was a Given Grace to her family. I do not know her, but what happened to her opens back the old wounds at UPLB, the brutal killing of Aileen Sarmenta by that crazy mayor, this time its another loss for the community and the issues of campus safety is put back into the spotlight.

BOO! to ABSCBN news for posting that graphic mobile phone pic of the victim still tied down. It took awhile for the news team to take the photo down (so much for sensitivity). And where did that pic come from? from SOCO? Should news people even be near and walking around the crime scene? anubeh!



As of today, her facebook page is still accessible and a touching tribute is posted online by her orgmate which makes it seemed all too surreal, reading her lasts posts, seeing all her photos at the UPLB campus. One can clearly seeing how much she loved life and the people around her. Hope her family finds justice and very soon.

Where to find an Ostomy Support Group in the Philippines?

I would like to share a helpful and informative website promoting awareness for Filipinos living with abdominal conditions that require them to live with colostomy bags or to have a stoma in place. These are pouching systems or holes place in the abdomen area to collect waste from the body (in place of orifices that have been damaged by disease).

Colostomy Friends of the Philippines is a blog for Pinoy ostomates. Through experiences of members of this support group, one can exchange information on how to better manage their pouch bags, how to deal with Stoma Skin Irritation,
irrigation techniques, etc.

Why do Filipinos carry Umbrellas even when it’s Sunny outside?

Well, it’s hot to begin with and Pinoys love the shade. Most pinays don’t want their skins to get any darker. From a twisted cultural perspective, fair-skin and light colored skin is preferred or considered a marker of beauty. Hence, the umbrellas to shield the richly Gluthathione-fed skin of Pinays.

Some though, simply don’t want to get sunburned or suffer from heatstroke.
