Bugoy: The Rightful PDA Season 2 Champion

September 9, 2008 at 9:01 am (A Proud Pinoy, Recent Events, Selfish Glimpse)

The moment I heard Bugoy sing, I knew that he is a star-in-the-making….

My eyes are sparkling with joy. My whole body is shivering that has nothing to do with cold. I focused my attention on the television. And started to cheer when I heard the host announced the name of the PDA Season 2 Grand Star Winner: “BUGOY!”      How great if this fantasy were to become a reality. That is why I can’t wait for the Grand Dream Night on September 14, 2008.

The Farmers Son

Bugoy: The Farmer's Son

Bugoy is the most [vocally] versatile among the remaining six scholars. He has the distinct voice that you would instantly recognize when you hear it. And because of this I believe that he is deserving to become the Grand Winner of Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2. So for all Bugoy supporters out there, let us help Bugoy achieve his dreams by voting him as the rightful PDA Season 2 Winner.

If we combine our votes and support Bugoy to the fullest extent we may be able to place him to highest pedestal. Let us also remember that God is the source of all the blessing so prayers could also help.

Bugoy’s Profile:
Bugoy only recently discovered that he had a stage-ready singing voice, and only accidentally.

Coming from an impoverished family in a far-flung area in Camarines Sur, the hard-working farmer’s son went into university with the dream of earning a degree. He payed his tuition through scholarships and earned his pocket money working as janitor, dish washer and other odd jobs.

It must have been a habit for Bugoy to sing while doing menial jobs. But back in the farm where only the cows and the birds could hear him, his voice went unappreciated. It took a friend, who heard him singing while cleaning with a mop, to make Bugoy realize that he could actually carry a tune. Winning school competitions soon emboldened him to dream some more and try out for PDA.

Look where he is now. Pursuing his dream of becoming a singer. Wherever this takes him, Bugoy will has packed enough prayers in his suitcase to see him through. And he has yet another dream… to meet someone he could fall in love with and call his girlfriend. “Para hindi na ako paghinalaang bading.”

“Let’s Tag In” or “Autobots Tags-form”

August 28, 2008 at 5:23 am (Internet Stuff, Selfish Glimpse)

As usual April Rose or more commonly known as Cay is the brain of all things spammy. Just kidding… but it’s always her alerts that fill my Facebook inbox to the limit. And now what’s this another nice game to play along with — let’s play tag.:

Rules/Instructions  (as if)
-Click copy/paste, type in your answers and tag four people in your lists! Don’t forget to change the answers to the questions with that of your own.

(A) four places i go over and over 

1. My Room(?) - LOL is this a valid answer? I guess so.  I like reading books and the exact sanctuary for this purpose is my room. Well I wouldn’t really call it as a room for it has technically no walls at all. How I miss my old room in our old home where everything is neat and tidy and all my books are arrayed in customized shelf.

It’s a pity we have to transfer to my grand’s place due to some circumstances.

2. National Book Store - Books… books… books! All I can think about are books. A week will never pass without having an at least 4 times of visit to the National bookstore of my life. I want to buy all of the books that I like but sadly it would be impossible for it would cost me a fortune.

I hope that there is someone out there that would buy me a book as a gift on my nearing September birthday. Hehe and here are some of the books that belong to my National Book Store wishlist. Choose any.

3. Mall/Cinema – Aside from my book addiction I am easily obsessed with movies. At least 2 times a week I would visit the cinema and during those visit would be a marathon or a watching spree until I watched all the movies released for that week.

I usually watch movies alone and my friends usually believe or rely on my opinion if ever they wanted to watch movies. And of course I would (unwillingly willing) join them and watch the movie for the nth time.

 4. Church – For the past months I am totally inclined to be religious as far as I could or as far as I am capable. I’ve been an emo for almost my entire life and only the church gives me the serenity and purpose to live.

(B) four people who email me regularly:

1. Iloilo Views - Newsletter about recent events that occur in Iloilo City as well as the country.

2. Client- or Friend-related  Messages - Well I am an employed citizen after all and what do you expect from being an employed citizen but feedback, and instructions from clients. Also there are numerous messages from facebook, friendster and the likes.

 3. Notifications, alerts- Social networking has never been my thing but lately i kept on joining these networks without even knowing the full potential they could offer. Just join and let it be until my inbox bursts to the limit.  

4. The Hobbit Movie Newsletter- I eagerly await any update to the Hobbit Movies. Yes I wanted to know the latest info on this project as I cannot wait for 2011. I hope The Hobbit 1 and 2 will be as good as its predecessor but I have a feeling that it will be great as Del Toro will direct the movies.

(C) four of my favorite places to eat:

1. Home- Nothing can beat the “lutong bahay.”

2. Teds- Well I like batchoy so this is where I usually go and eat Lapaz Batchoy. Yummy!

3. Chowking- Now lets all feel and taste what ever the Chinese food could offer. Right now I’m thinking about Beef wanton noddles, Congee, halu-halo, dimsum etc. I am hungry already…

4. Jollibee- I was a Jollibee employee on my final year in college and it was all for the want of experiencing what life is like if I were a service crew of one of the busiest fast food store. After my experiences at the store all I want to do with my Jollibee meal is to savor evey bit of it for I know how hard it is to work as service crew.

(D) four places i’d rather be:
1. Hogwarts – I always wished that Hogwatrs School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was for real. How I liked to live in a School like that where every corner sparks with magic. But unfortunately I can only live in this wonderful place through my imagination.

2. Europe – The feel of being a stranger living in a foreign land appelas to me greatly. What more if that foreign land excudes with ancient and conservative building, historical spots and likeable people…. I wanted to be in a place where I could easily access the Stonehenge, Colliseum, and other landmarks.

3. Palawan - I also wanted to live in a peaceful area where natural things dominates the scene. I like a seaside scenery and that comfort it offers. I will be greatly happy if the place where I live in is as clean, peaceful and harmonious as some selected areas in Palawan.

4. Under the Sea – If only I could have an apparatus that could supply me my any basic needs to last me underwater for a lifetime… The world of the sea is more interesting than the other parts of the earth, as far as I am concerned.

(E) Four people I think will respond:
1. Cilay – (Blogging friend) maybe she’ll respond but I am not sure.

2. Ibos – I am not sure if she’s updating her multiply blog or if she ever replies to chain-thingy LOL.

3. Donnabel/Hanah - My officemates and teammates. The full force of local talk show and the like. Wahahaha.

4. Darcy Arnie Mirasol - The one that started it all. A colleague, a classmate (then), a friend. He is the one who inspired me to make a blog and I am always surprised whenever he comments or replies to my ancient posts.

(F) four tv shows i could watch over and over:
1. D.Gray-man – I like anime! especially this one. Enough said.

2. Any show from the Discovery Channel and National Geographic – I am greatly entertained whenever I watch about something ineteresting, something natural, and something about science. I like to watch about animals and their way of living, the mysteries of the unfathomable space, and the strange culture of other nations.

3. Smallville – Superhero-thingy has been one of my obssessions lately. And the show that could fit the bill is the story of the Superboy who will eventually become the Superman.

4. Any Reality Show – I just like the thrill of a reality show.

Note: Do not believe any of these as the author is quite disllusional when he was writing this.
