Manny Pacquiao The Movie

With the heat of Manny Pacquiao versus Manuel Marquez fight today December 8, 2012, I got an email from my grandmother in California about the release of Manny's movie. Well years ago there was a movie played by a local actor about the Pinoy Pride's life, if i'm not mistaken it was Jericho Rosales and the role of Jinky (Manny's wife) was played by Bea Alonzo. Anyhow this movie is new and was produced in the USA. The executive producer is actually my uncle, Tristan Seisa and the sole investor is the Seisa family. It's really a great pride and honor for Filipinos to have someone wave the flag of our humble country Philippines in the whole world. Well despite the fact that we're just a minute part of the world map someone made it big in the history especially in sports. The soundtrack was put up by Chad Hugo, ,a multiple Grammy awardee ,  my uncle and the rest of the Yard Noise group. 

Here is the link....

You can download from there the official soundtrack for free and at the same time watch the teaser for Pacman's 2013 movie. Let us support our pinoy pride. Please watch and share this to everyone!

I Miss Him

This is just one of my few random write ups I wrote way back 2 years ago. I found this one in one of my files. So I will post it now here for safe keeping that someday I could read it and reminisce.

She

I miss him, as I look at him today. The scent in the air tells me it’s him. I miss that perfume so familiar to my nose. It’s a coincidence after 5 years I saw him again. Something pinched my heart reminding me of something familiar. Something I can’t explain, that face, those eyes, I know him very well. It was something I will never forget, something I will always treasure. I miss him.

He

There she is..after 5 long years I saw her again. A special lady I adored. She’s still pretty, she was once young, now she’s a grown up. She grew beautifully. That long hair, her eyes, her face and her lips. Yes those lips. Everything reminded me of what happened 5 years ago. The longing look in her eyes, oh I want to hug her but I just can’t.

She: Hi

He:wow this is a total surprise, how have you been?

She: been good how about you?

He: Been busy but all is well how long have you been here?

She: Migrated 2 years ago with my family

He: great.who’s with you now?

Little girl: Mommy who is he?

She: Honey this is my friend,a good friend back in the place where I grew up

He: Hi little girl how are you?

Little girl: Hello mommy’s friend I am very pleased to meet u (giving her little hands)

He: ( I took her tiny hands and shook it gently, she giggled)

Little girl: mommy im starving can we go home now?

She: yes baby…(I turned towards him, I don’t wanna say this words again, feels like a lump is stucked on my throat)

He: hmmmm (uneasy look) see yah around?

She: probably..(but I think not)

He: Take care (I wanted to hug and kiss her)

She: you too (I wanted to hug him like i used to)

She

As I turned around a drop of tear fell from my eyes. IT hurts after quite a long time, I thought I have forgotten him. I missed him so much. If only I got patient if only I have waited…if only I did not marry this little girl could have been ours…I miss him

He

As I turned around a drop of tear fell from my eyes. I missed her so bad that I wanted to hug her. If only I understood better what she felt. If only I didn’t abandon her. If only I left my ministry and chose her…. that little girl could have been ours. I still love her…

Iloilo Designers Week

It's been awhile since I last wrote here. My life has become topsy-turvy recently. I know this blog is a bit public so everyone has an access on it, so I'm taking this opportunity to share this wonderful event in my life. They say once a passion will always be a passion. Since I was a kid people noticed my inclination in dressing up, accessorizing and stuff so when my friend and my cousin started this modelling agency Bijoux Creatives I helped them. I started endorsing people for the modelling agency. Most of them were my TGIF students from University of San Agustin, been training their contestants since 2010 until now. From endorsing to model scouting, and now one of the production team for the first ever Iloilo Designers Week.

For the information of everyone Iloilo Designers week is the first convergence of 32 Iloilo Designers plus 7 Manila Top Designers gathered in one show.Plus top models from Manila will be coming too. This is the first in the fashion history of Iloilo.

If you wanna see the local version of the Philippine Fashion Week you should come and join us in this event.

Shows will start on November 5, 2012 at 4 pm at SM City Iloil with an opening fashion show of the top designers from Iloilo like Jaki Peñalosa, Bo Parcon and many more. Every day there will be 3 segments with 4-5 designers per segment. Each designer will showcase there 10 piece collection each. Categories are Luxe wear, Men's Wear, Grand Allure and Visions and Trends. So if you are a certified fashionista you should not miss this.

For those of you who are from Bacolod or coming to Bacolod you should visit her Salon at 26th Lacson St. Bacolod City. It's one of the few Salon's who can give you sophistication when it comes to a salon experience plus Miss Nicole uses high end brand for her make-up and she's only one of the few who uses airbrush. Who says that only stars can have that beautifying experience huh?You can have it too.

But what you guys should not miss is the Gala Dinner Fashion Show on the 9th of November. This is the finale of the event.

Intoy The Wonder Manug Balot of Lambunao

It's been awhile since I last posted here. Things have been very busy for me. Ended my contract with the Rnheals program, research proposal, MAN requirements and the fact that I am not employed right now make me so stressed. Well playing majong with 5 peso bet drives away my attention from stress and also my requirements. hahah But tonight I remembered the video I got during a show on the "bisperas" of our fiesta. It featured Intoy the famous "manugbalot" of Lambunao delivering a self made declamation piece and a dance number. To many Intoy is just a balot vendor often bullied by other people especially of some guys because of his sexuality but for us his "suki", he is a picture of a person who sees the wonders in life despite poverty. Selling 150 pcs of balut a day for 15 php makes him earn at least 300 pesos, well that's better off than other guys who just sit in the street and drinking ESQ right? I remembered one time we had a conversation during one of our majong sessions, I told him "Intoy sang una ko bala kita kanimo nakulbaan ako kanimo, blonde imo buhok waay pa gasararama, naka palda kag naka backless ka pa bitbit mo pa balut mo, kurulbaan gd timo pay daw ka off kanimu turukon," he answered, "teh tulad nahadlok ka pa kanakun?" I jokingly answered,"waay duma gawa ah, teh ikaw way kaw nahadlok sa self  mo?" I laughed after that but to my surprise he answered, "TEH INSA MAHADLUKAN TAKUN BISAN AMO LANG JA AKON ITSURA CONFIDENT TAKUN SA SARILI KO." I smiled when I heard that, we seldom see people who can see perfection in their imperfections. I told my mother that I really admire Intoy despite his condition in life still he strives to walk kilometers by foot to sell Balot just to earn cents and still manage to live and give money to his mother. Intoy also told me that one time he was a victim of hold up those guys took all his money left him naked walking in the streets, shame on those people. Why can't they look for their own living why do they have to take other people's hard earnings. I hope they rot in hell.
 Yesterday Intoy saw me dressed, he asked where I am going, I told him i'll be a judge on the mr and miss foundation of the Caninguan National High School and if he wants to come he can come. He rode at the back of our dmax, as we were driving I was laughing at him coz he felt like it was a parade, he was standing and waving at every person he sees and people would call at him saying "Intoy  may balut kaw?" I realized,  to some people riding on a pick up is nothing but for Intoy it is something...It made him smile and feel like a beauty queen. I made some reflections, I feel so bad that I almost got everything yet I still keep on competing with myself asking for more...wanting for more. If we set simple things in life...our source of happiness is simple too. We tend to be so ambitious that we neglect to see the simplicity of being happy. It's just right there but we refuse to recognize.

I am writing this blog for him not because I wanna make fun of him or whatever, I am writing this to be a reminder   for everyone that life is a choice and we should choose the better one and that is simply to be happy not with material things but being grateful of what we have,like our family, friends, special someone and the gift of life God gave us.This video will just be a bonus just to make you smile and whenever you see Intoy selling, hope you'll buy from him even if you don't eat Balut. Everytime I watch this video I really laugh...I don't see the Intoy other people call "retarded" but I see Intoy as a happy person, grateful of the things he have. Enjoy watching hope Intoy will put a smile on your face.

PS: I'm a terrible writer so please bear with me lang hahaah =)
