BB Gandanghari Bloggers Meet and Greet

I had a great event last Saturday, March 14 at Magnet Bonifacio High Street. Our newest website, POC (thepoc.net), hosted a bloggers meet and greet with BB Gandanghari. Yes, BB. The actor formerly known as Rustom Padilla.

I was very excited to meet her. Mixed emotions because I had a huge crush on Rustom during the Mistah days.

When I saw BB, I thought, wow.... she is beautiful. She was not wearing heavy makeup then unlike her previous TV guestings. She seemed nice in person. Ang nasabi ko lang "BB kamukha mo si Barbie!" except the boobs of course. She is very statuesque and definitely a head-turner. I think she is more beautiful than some showbiz personalities.

mom's flight status 2: Seoul to Manila

i checked again my mom's flight status. She's onboard Korean Air Flight 623 from Seoul Korea to Manila on March 11, 8:00 pm. She is arriving at 11:05pm at the NAIA. We are very very very excited. After posting this blog entry, I will take a shower, arrange my things and we'll go to the airport. We can have coffee first at Diosdado Macapagal Avenue. Anyway, we need all the caffeine! for sure, no one will sleep tonight :)

mom's flight status

ano ba ito nakakaloka!!! excited na ako! mom is in Seoul, Korea now. in a few hours, mayayakap na namin sha at babaha ng luha sa NAIA!

hahaha...

Welcome Home, Ma!

Finally, after seven long years, my mom is coming home to the Philippines. As I write this post, she is on-board Korean Air Flight 18. She left LAX at Manila time 3AM, will arrive in Seoul at 4:30 pm, leave for Manila at 8:00pm and arrive at NAIA at 11:00PM.

I am so excited and I can't hide it!!! My brother (LeRoy)and sister (Rizza) had a hard time sleeping. I was fortunate to be with my mom for three weeks when I went to the US last year. but my siblings haven't seen my mom for 7 years.

My Uncle is preparing arrozcaldo and inihaw na bangus for her homecoming. My mom is so sabik of Filipino foods and fruits. I will buy later atis, siniguelas, kaimitos, sapin sapin and pitchy pitchy. (why are Filipinos so fond of repeating words? even in nicknames.. Cheche,Dondon, Bambam, Bongbong, Lenlen, etc.)

Anyway, we prepared a tarpaulin streamer for her. (Baduy? Pakialam nio!!!)
