Lesson for the day: No one takes in rushed orders for tarpaulines. I was going to have a tarpauline printed for my Philippine Idol, Gian Magdangal, but alas I thought of it too late. Instead I opted for orange ribbons -- that apparently his family thought of too. I felt like I was part of them (not ( Read more... )

Thanks to a Philippine Idol Live show-bereft weekend, I felt like this week would not turn out right. In fact, as I walked out of the village this morning (really early at that), things looked dismal. There was no Pamy to gush with on Sunday evenings exciting events (She was in Bangkok). There was no Philippine Idol Live Show to reminisce. There ( Read more... )

Nagpapa-alam ka
Dahil nasaktan kita
Noo’y di makitang mali ako
Ngayo’y alam ko na
Sayo’y nagkasala
Sana muli ako’y mapatawad pa
Araw araw kang lumuluha

Despite worrying that Gian hadn't left our tickets at the counter, we actually made it to the front row -- smack in front of the band ( Read more... )

Philippine Idol has taken over my life.

Pamy and I actually went all the way to SM Manila (without knowing the way either) just so we could catch the Idols in a mall show ( Read more... )

Tonight, everyone was good.

Vocally, we were impressed. Listening from our seats in the balcony, everyone was actually really good. However, there are still those that were better than others (over-all). I thought Mo Twister was a very effective judge. Sure, I did not agree with him on everything (especially his putting down of My Gian), but I ( Read more... )

Pilita Corales has gone too too far. What she said to Mau after her performance was just out of line. Mamita has talked about weight too much on the show. She talked about how Stef needed to lose weight (yes, I actually remember things concerning Stef too), and now she does this to Mau. This is just crazy ( Read more... )
