Lost No More

Good bye Lost. It was a great ride. Goodbye!

Uncle Boonmee and the Emir

Cannes 2010 Best Film is from Thailand: Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Life by Apichatpong Weerasethakul.

"Ghosts are not attached to places, but to people... to the living".

But wait!..... (with no connections to Uncle Boonmee) How was Chito Rono's full-length Musical Film? Lumabas na ba to? Kumita ba?

Well again, congratulations to Thailand's Apichatpong! (and to Chito for giving us something new).

LTE's Vogue-Philippines

Discussion ng mga Bakla: Kung biglang naging Manny Villar - rich ka at nasasa-iyo ang Franchise ng Vogue- Philippines, sino ang i-feature mo as cover ng debut issue ng Fashion Magazine na kokontra sa Mega at Preview?

Of course, syempre dapat Pinay! Vogue-Philippines nga eh. Mahirap anetch? Kung LTE lang ang may power..... sampu lang ang pinagpipilian namin. Eto sila in random order:

1. Melanie Marquez: Suggestion ni Ekra. Gosh ha, ang tanda nya na. magmukhang matronicougar ang datesh ng Vogue-Philippines nyan. But Ekra insists. We willl concentrate raw on The History of Philippine Fashion sa first ever issue. True, Mimilanie is a big part of it naman. Kaya pasok ang gagah! Gawing trendy lang raw ang make-up! Pwede na!

2. Charo Ronquillo and Charlene Almarvez (embracing each other sa cover, nude): Suggestion ko naman to para young ang dating and pang international pa. (Eh si Mimilanie, Miss International naman ah? Ching!). It will set the standard na di celebrity magazine ang Vouge-Philippines but truly more on Fashion and Glamour. It should spell ART and not ARTista!

3-4. Or maybe just Charlene without Charo or vice-versa! I am sure, kayang kaya nilang mag-isa! Bigyan pansin ang sariling atin!

5. Ruffa Gutierrez: Kawadjan Mae suggests. Well, pwede dahil si Ruffa ay all support naman sa ating mga local designers. At maganda naman ang bruha. But is she Chic enough? Wag lang syang magpa-sweet, OK na. In other words: Ruffa ala mode!

6. KC Concepcion: Ang Vogue-Philippines ay dapat pang masa din dahil ito ay para sa lahat ng mga Pinoy. Why not that Marian girl na lang kung pang masa man lang? Hello? Wala syang Class katulad ni KC. I remember ang first issue ata ng Mega Magazine ay si Tita Shawie ang cover. Well, KC's beauty will surely be a hit katulad ng Nanay nya! Say nyo?

7. Alessandra de Rossi: Kung artista lang naman ang i-cover, dapat payat na at mukhang model naman, sabi ni Mama O. Eh di si Alex na! Davu? Aliw na aliw pa naman kami sa beauty nya. Kahit half-half ang loka, pasok pa rin sya! At wag ka... para naman baklang-bakla ang ating first cover. Gooo!

8. Ria Bolivar: Do we need to explain why? Ang di naka-kakilala kay Ria ay isang walang kwentang baklaaa! Charoooot!

9. Cassie (Cassandra Ventura): Yep, that half-Pinoy singer, 1/4 Black, 1/4 Latino. She got the look of a model naman but... yeah, again, she's half. We want more home-grown sana as much as possible sa first-ever issue. She's to represent the true Pinay beauty dapat. Pero kakaiba ang beauty ni Cassie cassie, we'll see. Pwede na rin si Vanessa or Nicole but Cassie is still our best choice kung half-half lang naman ang pag-uusapan. Tse!

10. An Unknown: Para kakaiba. Pag-uusapan ng mga Pinoy Fashionistas na kung bakit sya? Dapat yung na discover sa Palengke or sa Surigao Beach, nagbebenta ng shells, someone like that. And it will create a big statement: Kahit sino ka man at kahit saan ka man galing sa ating 7000 islands, you can be fashionable and stylish if you want to... the Pinoy way! Vogue!

-----O----

Never in our list: Marian Rivera!!!! Si Kris Aquino pwede pa... pero not sa debut issue. Medyo may pagka-baduy ang the new first lady of our country! Agree?

Kayo? Sino ang pipiliin nyo? Pls lang! Gandahan nyo!

The Pinoy Fashion Look

Filipinos are everywhere!!! From Dubai to Chang Mai; Tokyo to Toronto; plus Mississippi .... and even Papua New Guinea! but internationally, they can never be seen in Fashion Magazines. Until 2010.... here we come:

Paolo Roldan (far right): Givenchy Ad Campaign 2010

Charlene Almarvez (far right): V Magazine

Charo Ronquillo: Glamour (US)

Sharina Gutierrez: Elle (US)

What's next? Sabayan si Monique? (Go Ekra! Go Ekra! Go!)

PS. Take note! Walang Mestiza or Mestizo churvalo kina Paolo, Charene, Sharina and Charo. Tama na muna ang mga half-half na yan! Pls lang!

This One Is For Me

----------------->>>

This one's for the lonely

The ones that seek and find

Only to be let down

Time after time

This one's for the torn down

The experts at the fall

Come on friends get up now

You're not alone at all

And this part was for him

This part was for him

This part was for him

Does he remember?

It comes and goes in waves, 

This one's for the faithless

The ones that are surprised

They are only where they are now

Regardless of their fight

This one's for believing

If only for it's sake

Come on friends get up now

Love is to be made

And this part was for him

This part was for him

This part was for him

Does he remember?

It comes and goes in waves,

I am only led to wonder why

It comes and goes in waves

I am only led to wonder why

Why I try

This is for the ones who stand

For the ones who try again

For the ones who need a hand

For the ones who think they can

It comes and goes in waves,

I am only led to wonder why

It comes and goes in waves

I am only led to wonder why

Why I try

....O.....

Comes and Goes by Greg Laswell: Speaks to me so much like how The Mighty communicated with Abraham to kill his son. 

Ang tanga ko talaga! But at least, I'd tried at nalaman ko. Well, it's time to get up now. A new Love is to be made! Pls lang!

Ojie Is Back

We LOVE this Guy......

Mama, mama, paano ka ginawa? 

We Are Fated To Pretend

Jonsi (of Sigur Ros) covers MGMT's Time to Pretend . His take makes the song more meaningful, emotional, and somber yet beautiful. Listen:

Original:


Jonsi's Cover:

I was more into the rhythm with MGMT's original but Jonsi's affecting version made me examine the anatomy of the song. Social norms of Adulthood (specifically for young adults) versus the values of Childhood.

Well, its fun to be in the prime of your life... living the rock-star life, etc... yet the reality is, life as an adult can be overwhelming... You can be anyone you want, but at the end of the day everyone's the same. We became glamorous and careless. We flaunt what we have and what we have achieved yet deep inside we thought there's something wrong and when we do feel it, we pretend. We pretend that we're OK and do have some more 'fun', 'everything must run its course'.

But we can always go back... to Childhood where we used to pretend in a different way and to start off to achieve whatever it is lacking. But sadly, most of us chose to continue... to pretend as an adult and end up 'choking our vomit and that would be the end'.

Ang Pinoy nga Naman

I woke up reading an email about Real Answers to questions in Filipino TV game shows.

OMG sumakit ang tyan ko sa kakatawa, esp. to #9!!!! Mabuhay ang mga Pilipino, because poor and not as educated most of us are, we are simply funny, genuine, resilient, and we never fail to make other people laugh and smile.
