- SunCellular

hmmmm, and more hmmmm.... i know i have long and curly hair, i can barely dance more less do some acting - on the other hand, i don't have any fantasies to become "marimar" in the life of dingdong dantes.

Here's a list why a date with Dingdong Dantes will never workout:

1. I am not a pedophile - he is very young and i am younger. err... much much younger... este, older.

2. I am not a fan - electric, manual, "paypay" or local MOVIE fan. The only local celebrities that I will admit to being a fan of is Pokwang, Eugene Domingo, Ai Ai delas alas, Ruffa Mae. Unless Dingdong starts to get really big breasts, become a character actor (a very very kind way of saying - hindi maganda o gwapo), or suddenly develop spectacular thespian skills (when he attempts drama i laugh, when he tries to do comedy i fall asleep...) i don't think he will be in my list of favorite actors.

3. I don't like to listen to monologues - in short, actors have this tendency to talk about themselves. the only monologue that i like is Eve Ensler's Vagina Monologues and if you know this one, you'd probably know that's a lot of pekpek talking about real world issues affecting women and not some reality warped delusion of movie celebrities.

4. Nasa Maynila Sya, Nasa Cebu Ako - yes, you travel 18 hours by boat to manila from cebu, or get stuck in the airport for the same length of time to fly to manila. I have never been into cyber sex, chat or video stripping. besides, people in the internet cafe might think am some sort of pervert if i suddenly started to strip. i could probably open up my shirt and flash some hair on my chest, or a nipple. sus santa santisimo patawarin nyo po ako sa aking mga sala...

5. Lalaki sya at Lalaki din po ako - yes, some idiot in SunCellular decides to send a massive spam for a date not considering that half of the texting population is male and would probably not relish the idea of a cockfight... este swordfight... errr you get the point.

regarding dingdong, it's nothing personal - he doesn't know me and i have no intention of getting to know him either. the only dingdong i have is the mixed nuts variety. it could have been some other person like willie revillame but am sure the promo-gimik makers already know that no one's going to bother texting back for a chance to win a date with wowowee.

regarding the text - what they conveniently forgot to mention is that once you send STOP to that number you just basically confirmed your existence and they will be sending more text messages to you. that and the fact you probably paid P2 for that text message. blundering silly idiots.

I've never liked spam (the mail variety) and i certainly don't like getting some text messages from unknown sources. i wonder how they got my phone number 0922.123.4567 ...

Men and Makeup

nope, this is not another entry about metrosexuals and how the lines have been blurred when it comes to men wearing makeup. i am referring to the local and national election campaign posters plastered all over the country. someone has go to tell these candidates and their stylists that blemish free skin, pouting rouged lips, blushing red cheeks belong to cheeky graduation pictures, or a starlet posing in uno. not the local posters. on second thought, the more senior candidates probably used their graduation pictures, high school pictures mind you. i don't understand why they are afraid to show character with a few elegant lines on their faces. the way botox cleared the expressions, or how photoshop removed all pores from the skin, or how subcutaneous fat seem to have been sucked off from their chins left a very puppet-like look. yup, character, character assassination. combined with exaggerated, toothy grins, some pictures reminded me of joker. not arroyo (one of the few ch

a most unusual saint

Image
the title Black Magic Mary is enough to conjur images of a witch draped in black robes similar to that of the Virgin Mary albeit with a more sinister aura. in Sta. Maria Church in Siquijor, a saint wearing a black habit holds a skull in one hand and an "inverted cross" in another is fast gaining a reputation that is probably influenced by the mystic history of the island itself. locals have speculated that the skull is actually her husband's and that she murdered her husband for reasons that seems to have been lost in history. a bit of research show that the locals refer to the saint as Santa Rita de Siquijor, probably a Filipino convention where we name the Virgin Mary with annexes related to places (e.g. Our Lady of Guadalupe). my own research led me to discover this particular "myth" in an effort to know more about Santa Rita de Cascia who is the patron saint of a church and town named after her in Pampanga. The first thing that caught my attenti

the sign

"Lord, give me a sign..." no, i haven't fallen victim to overly melodramatic movie lines. on the other hand, i actually did use these words while attending mass last sunday (Redemptorist, Cebu City). you see, i have been increasingly dissatisfied with matters regarding the church but not necessarily my faith. to a point that i am debating whether i should even attend mass. i was asking myself if i wanted to attend mass given the fact that the church is getting more political. sure, i understand liberation theology and standing up for what is morally right. but that is exactly the same thing that has been bothering me, the moral thingy. the local church is proclaiming that the current administration has no moral leadership. i am not refuting that claim, on the other hand, the church could have said the same thing about itself. except that they rather not comment on anything when it comes to issues facing the institutional church. and there are tons of dirt, make that hun
