Pick up lines are said to be a modern form of “Balagtasan” a form of poetry originating from the province of Bulacan. Named after Francisco Balagtas (the name by which Francisco Baltazar was popularly known). This performance is a cross between drama and the indigenous oral tradition of poetry. The balagtasan is similar to an ordinary debate except for the fact that one has to reason and argue in verse. They are said to be first shown and heard in the movie "Amnesia Girl" starring John Lloyd Cruz and Tony Gonzaga. It is popularized in television by the original "Boy Pick-up," Ogie Alcasid, in the comedy gag show "Bubble Gang." The witty Senator Miriam Defensor utilizes pick up lines as part of her speeches. Pick-up lines have now become a fad among Filipinos especially the young. The following are my favorite Pinoy pick up lines. None of these are my creation but these are pick up lines I came across from various sources through vonage plans. "Miss, I forgot your name. Can I call … [Read more...]
A short documentary on the rise and fall of Renato Corona
A short documentary on the rise and fall of Renato Corona Rappler.com, the Philippines latest social news network new site has presented a short seven minute documentary on who is Renato Corona before he joined the Supreme Court of the Philippines. I would call this a short documentary on the rise and fall of Renato Corona as the video presents his glorious ascension and his fall from grace in a nutshell. The short documentary reveals how the former Chief Justice quickly rose from the ranks of government service. He started as an unknown palace bureaucrat, served under several presidents and was later on appointed to the highest court of the land. The documentary also gives a snapshot of his multi-million wealth. Was the Senate right in ousting Renato Corona as Chief Justice of the highest court of the land? Of course, I would say that with a big resounding YES and I’d bet my pentair pool pump on it any day. Watch the short documentary below. … [Read more...]
Tara na Biyahe Tayo rebooted!
The Philippine Department of Tourism is targeting close to 10 million tourists by 2016. As of 2011 the number of Tourist arrival is only close to 4 million. Tourism is of course a very important as it not only showcases the beauty of our country making us very proud as a people, from an economic standpoint, it generates jobs, brings in money thereby helping the economy move forward. Equally important as well is not only foreign tourism but domestic tourism as it also gives more or less the same effect as foreign tourism. Years ago, the Department of Tourism has come up with several slogans and campaigns to encourage domestic tourism and I believe the best one they come with is “Biyahe Tayo” or in English “Let’s go travel.” The song is performed some of the Philippine best recording artist. As you all know some of the best singers and song writers in the world are Filipinos so it wouldn't be a surprise that the song is of such superior quality and has a very catchy tune especially … [Read more...]
