I was virtually introduced to Jo Koy by Benji Reyes through Facebook. I've been watching Jo Koy's stand-up comedy set online this holiday season. I can't wait for his first comedy show in Manila on January 21! I would agree with Benji that he is better than Rex Navarrete. But, just a warning, some of his jokes are For Adults Only. He talks about taboo things -- like his son's ting ting. For parents like us, we can relate. :) Really funny! :) He seems to be virtually unknown in Manila (based on an informal poll I did with Manila-based OAP readers). But most Filipinos in the US know him -- even my brother in LA. Jo Koy guested in Jay Leno's Tonight Show, proudly wearing a shirt with a Philippine Flag. We love him for being proud to be Pinoy. :) Check out his stand-up comedy set in Jokes.com below: (For more Jo Koy videos, check out Kewlit Co's You Tube Channel!)

Contest Duration: December 28, Monday to 11.59pm January 30, Saturday A Toast to the Green Life! (see: Real Leaf Photo Album)
We brought home Real Leaf Green Tea as pasalubong for Aidan and Joshua. I was able to convince the two boys to do a photo shoot near the pool for this photo contest. If you have toddlers at home, you will know how difficult it is to convince little boys to do such a session. I'm glad the boys were game to do it. :) I can't wait to have another boy to complete the Three Kings! Now, it is your turn to capture an awesome picture of a person drinking Real Leaf and get the chance to win an 8GB iPod Nano!
It is easy to join this photo contest with 3 easy steps:
1. Sign in to your OVI account (or Create an OVI account)
2. Upload a photo of a person drinking Real Leaf in my shared OVI Photo album: Real Leaf
3. For every photo entry, you should have your name, email address and a creative write-up on:
(a) Why the person was drinking Real Leaf and (b) The situation the person was in.
Note:
- You can use a dSLR, point-and-shoot, webcam, cameraphone or just any device that can take pictures.
- Alternatively, you can also upload the photo to any of your favorite photo-sharing sites (Flickr, Photobucket, TwitPic, PicasaWeb, etc) or in your own blog or FB account. Leave a comment here with the link to your photo and the write-up.
- This photo contest is open to all OAP friends (based in Manila).
I will select an awesome photo that will win an 8GB iPod Nano with Photo/Video Camera!

Spoke lengthily on the phone yesterday with Jude and just now with Kathy, talking about stuff I want to change about myself.
Of course New Year's resolutions don't really work out, just the same I want to try and improve myself each year.
I want to pray more, go to Mass again. I have been seriously delinquent on those areas. Will explain more on the Mass part in a later post.
I want to read books again. My bookshelf has remained untouched for the longest time.
I want to transfer all my CDs to iTunes.
I want to watch "Boys Over Flowers" because Keri keeps raving about it. Is it really better than "Meteor Garden"?
I want to clean my house, lessen the junk. I bought this book by Lillian Too about decluttering the home. Got this at the feng shui store at Podium. This is something that really needs to be done.
I need to have another garage sale.
I want to shop less, honestly.
I want to give up Coke and all sweet drinks, chocolate, ice cream and rice.
I want to sleep at normal hours and wake up at normal hours.
I want to spend less time online.
I want to have more dinner and movie dates with Jeroen.
I want to do better work for the newspaper.
I want to fix parts of our house that really need fixing.
I want to have a cook that can cook.
I want to eat normal stuff and less junk.
I want to eat more fruits.
I want to exercise and lose 5-9 lbs, so help me God.
I want to successfully switch from Destiny to Sky Cable because I miss out when there's something on ANC.
I want to stop buying junk.
I want to find better shoes.
That said, I will sign off now and start my prayers.
I do hope Globe fixes our phone line tomorrow. They usually get things done within 24 hours.
Globe Tattoo and Smart Bro are hopeless until everyone's asleep, cause now it's working.
I want to be a better person, so help me God.

| Jess's Teen Vogue Cover Shoot + talks about work & Ed |
[ | |
December 28, 2009

Every so often, someone will stop Jessica Szohr on the street to tell her that she looks "just like" Vanessa from Gossip Girl. When they do, the actress usually responds with a friendly, "I get that." (Slightly tougher to take are the clueless types who say she resembles a certain TV star—only "cuter." Because, really, she wonders, "what is that supposed to mean?") A little confusion, though, is understandable: When the 24-year-old turns up for her Teen Vogue interview at a très chic West Village gastro-pub, she's swaddled in sweaters. Her thick, dark hair is pulled into a ponytail and she's wearing very little makeup. She's beautiful, to be sure, but she lacks the bleached-blonde, high-gloss, look-at-me exterior so common among young female celebrities.

http://thefashpack.blogspot.com/2009/12/bellevue-with-no-vue.html a couple weeks ago, our facebook friend daphne posted a status saying it's that time of the year when GCs are expiring. we can relate haha! if it's for food, we pass it on to the parental units. if it's for clothes, accessories, or shoes, teenage nieces are only too happy to be the recipients. but if it's for a hotel overnight stay, we like to check in and check it out for ourselves. today, we used up a gift certificate for the bellevue manila, a hotel in alabang, because it was expiring by the end of the year. it's located within the filinvest corporate city, so it's surrounded by all these call-center buildings. our de luxe room was upgraded to an executive suite, which excited us, woo-hoo! but our heart sank once we entered the room. here's the living room: 
and the bedroom: 
and the bathroom: 
all nice and spacious and decent enough. but the view, oh the view... 
na-upgrade nga ang room, pero na-downgrade naman ang view :-( for some people, the most important thing in a hotel room is the bed, or the bathroom, or its cleanliness, or even the smell. while all those things are important, for us the view can make or break our stay. the first thing we do when we enter a room is open the curtains and inspect the view. we like to leave the drapes open, even at night. we like to wake up to a nice view. but then we realized that this hotel was probably built for principals or expats who have to manage the call centers, so it's just a place to sleep in. we like the lobby christmas tree and decorations, though. we thought they were quite tasteful. 
and we've heard so much about vue, the new lounge on the 22nd floor of the new tower wing. we made sure to go up and have a cocktail, while catching the sunset. unfortunately, it's closed on sundays. sayang...  
and as we made our way through the lobby of the tower wing, we wondered why we weren't booked in this newly opened wing. because it looks nicer, brighter, more spacious, more modern, and more mabango. hmmm we wonder if the rooms are just as nice, bright, spacious, modern, and mabango...  haay, but we guess beggars (or GC recipients) can't be choosers!

It's Lola! — anak ng Lola mo!
It's an old photo (taken earlier this year as she was leaving the Kabbalah Center) but clearly she's got her mom's unique sense of style—beyond all norms of normy fashion.
