Earlier while I was riding the LRT with my stomach grumbling from hunger, a not so old lady came in and sat beside me eating nuts. Unconsciously I looked at the train to find the sign of " No Eating and Drinking", and it was just at the nearest right wall of the train. I looked at the surroundings and some people noticed too. At first I ignored the lady eating because it came to my mind that maybe she was just too hungry and could not take it. After the first pack of nuts, I noticed her scrambling for another pack in her bag. (OMG, she had quite a few on her bag, is she planning on eating everything while on the train like a picnic or something??) She opened another pack and ate. I was disturbed and had the urge to tell her that it is prohibited to eat inside the train. (I let it pass again because I thought she was just too hungry so she ate another pack, but if she opens another I'll surely tell her that it is forbidden to eat so that she'll stop) But then she did continue eating and opened her third pack. Good thing, I will get off soon, so I mustered my guts and whispered to her "Miss, Bawal po kumain dito" while pointing the sign. I saw her nodding so I thought she'll stop, but then while nodding she popped another nut in her mouth!! In my mind, I thought WTF?? So much for trying to be a good citizen.. And to think there is a child in front of us watching.. (I never ate inside the train so I think I have the guts to tell her that) Filipinos.. hayy.. Is there really no hope for improvement???
Cosmopolitan magazine annually announces their biggest event, the Cosmo Bachelor Bash wherein they feature 69 gorgeous and fresh hunks together with the 10 celebrity centerfolds. The event was on September 10, 2009 at the NBC Tent. Honestly, ever since I got my hands on Cosmo last 2002, I had been anticipating their September issue and most specially the Cosmo Bachelor Bash. Every September, Cosmo gives away 150 passes to girls that would join their contest, and one of them can invite one friend to join them.
Luckily, I got to win tickets to the Cosmo Bachelor Bash this year! Wooohooo!! I decided to ask Juhn to come with me, since we both had this longing to go to the Bachelor Bash.

And the new BUZZ on politics....
The controversial extravagant meal of Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo during her visit in Washington to meet US Pres. Obama.
It has been buzzing around town that the opposition party has been openly expressing their disgust with the controversial accomodations and meals that Pres. Arroyo had during her visit to speak with US Pres. Obama. It had been all over the news recently that Pres. Arroyo splurged on a $20,000 dinner along with her staff. Here's a link to the news.
Oh Philippines, our dear Philipines
It's sad to bear what is happening in our country. Graft and Corruption is a widespread disease that any person that has regained power get easily infected. I can't blame our politicians, because money and fame is a tempting demon that will eventually lure anyone to come and have some. It is a sin that is constantly yearning to have more, and never being contented to have much.

I suddenly bumped on this list on a link from Facebook, it contains a list of some movies that are about to hit the screen in the following years. It contains interesting prequels, sequels and some remakes even which I can't imagine. Even me, I got excited when I have read the list. It is quite an interesting list, though some may not push through. But anyway, who does not enjoy a good movie, right?

Wow, time do travel fast. Last year I was desperately wanting to go to the Como Bachelor Bash 2008, I even emailed Zo if I could at least buy tickets, but then it was a limited to 100 persons I think event. I promised that day that I will do anything just to be able to attend the Bachelor Bash. It will be my Birthday gift to myself (since my birthday is on September 6).
I have been buying Cosmo for years already. I think the editor that time was Myrza? (I am not sure of her full name) and now it's Zo, and loved the September issue eversince. I did not miss a September issue of Cosmo. I wish I can be picked this time to go to the BAsh. It would be the best Birthday gift EVER!!!
