Adding Value to Ads

Let me list down three of the most attractive commercials on Philippine TV (according to my biased, superficial opinion). I know a lot of people have been talking about these commercials and it’s high time to take this opportunity to cling to their popularity.
FIRST LOVE
McDonald’s latest commercial (courtesy of DDB Philippines) gave me a mixed [...]

Waiting for Love

After watching a few episodes of the American drama What About Brian, I can officially say that I am hooked. It took me sometime before I discovered this TV series aired every Tuesday at Star World. The show’s main character is Brian portrayed by Barry Watson whom I looked up to as Matt Camden in [...]

Strategy

I can clearly remember the times when I enganged myself in a copycat version of Bruckheimer’s Amazing Race. The first was when we were in Botany class where we were like kids-gone-wild racing to identify scientific names of campus plants (how nerdy!). I thought being part of the race itself was hard, so in the [...]

Last Tuesday, I was entertained by Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet’s movie “A [...]

The earth’s drastic movement is getting stronger. Then, you look out the window and people are running for their [...]

Lupet pala!

Bago pa man ilipat ang ‘On-Air’ sa IBC ay sinusubaybayan ko na ito sa ABC. Dito ko nga nadiskubre na may isang kakatuwang programang tulad nito. Nawili ako sa panonood ng On-Air high school pa lamang ako. Ang host nito na si JM Rodriguez ay personal pang sumagot sa aking email dati; tinatanong ko siya [...]

When Others Care

“People care about people who care about themselves.”
The line mentioned above was instilled in my mind after me and my friends Camille and Sam watched part 2 of Ms. Congeniality. It sounded right. I consider myself vain at times. I carry a pocket-sized mirror wherever I go to make sure that I don’t have dirt [...]
