| DJ Chacha |
Late last night, while I'm not yet feeling sleepy, I decided to turn my cellphone radio on,with thoughts of making me sleepy. My thoughts of feeling sleepy were wrong because the DJ that time was DJ Chacha! that made me laugh and laugh almost every minute, she's really humorous. Another thing that made me laugh was her caller that night(a male caller),the first minutes, they talked about condominiums because the caller was a sales agent, DJ Chacha really made their conversation full of jokes and I really can't resist it, but laugh most of the time. After the jokes conversation, they tackled what the serious conversation about the love problem of the caller. My laughing paused. The caller was single for six year and currently courting a girl for a year, but he doesn't receive any positive or negative feedback from his courting. DJ Chacha advised him that maybe he must see and date some other girls because maybe the girl that he was courting dislikes her, "Hindi Lahat ng gusto mo, makukuha mo"(DJ Chacha added a line from the recent movie of Bea-John Lloyd,The Mistress). The caller was so sport upon hearing DJ Chacha's advise, he just laughed and said "Hindi nga nya siguro ako gusto", inspite of that, the caller insists to court her and said that he will still wait for her yes. After the serious conversation, DJ Chacha again starts to make me laugh. Before the conversation was ended DJ Chacha gave the caller her killer "Mwah Mwah Chup Chup". Lastly Chacha pleased the caller to sang a duet with her, they decided to sing Total eclipse of the Heart, the caller was a bit shy so DJ Chacha sang the first line, the caller is too shy to sing many parts so DJ Chacha let him sing the line (Turn Around) only, DJ Chacha really made me laugh when she said that "Turn Around na nga lang hindi mo pa makanta ng maayos"(Hahahah!). They also made a duet of a Parokya ni Edgar Song(I forgot the Title, urgh!), and they thanked each other and ended the conversation. DJ Chacha also bid goodbye because her timeslot was finished and told everybody to watch CGE TV. I just listened to the music and have set up my radio to auto off after 2 hours. I really don't know what time a fell asleep :).
Congratulation to KZ Tandingan: X Factor Philippines first Champion
Celebrities Monday, October 08, 2012 |
| KZ Tandingan |
It was predictable for me and to some, that Kz Tandingan would be the first X Factor Grand Champion. Kz Tandingan has called the audience attention by her lovely voice, she sangs from the heart. Charice (Her Mentor) also shown her gladness when Kz was announced as the Grand Champion, Charice jump and almost sit and cried when KC Concepcion announced the winner. KZ was very emotional on her winning moment, she repeatedly saying "Lord..Thank you Lord" while crying. 4 Million Pesos worth of cash and Prizes was awarded to Kz Tandingan and a recording contract with star records.

| Its More Fun in the Philippines |
“We’re a country named after a Spanish King. To which an American general vowed to return. Or as someone described our history, ‘300 years in a convent, and 50 years in Hollywood.’”
This was the introduction phrase of the official campaign of Department of Tourism(It's more fun in the Philippines). For me the Video campaign was nice,although I have noticed that the clips were fast phasing, even though I have been so proud watching this video campaign to see how beautiful and how rich the Philippine Island is.
