Show time!

My friends and I went to the SMX Convention Center for the Holiday '09 shows, last Wednesday, May 27, 2009. Before heading to the function rooms, we all decided to have dinner at Cheesecake etc, because we were all very hungry. Everyone got pasta! ahahahahaha





We were rushing to the venue so that we could see the collections of our designer friends. When we got there, the show had already started. The worst part is, because there were a lot of people, we couldn't take a glimpse of the runway. All we could view are the people in front of us and the tall hair of the models! ahahahahaha I just tried to take a shot of the models and the designers at the end of the show..





There's nothing left to do but take pictures after the show!


The girls with designer John Paras

Ms. Nicole

With model friend, Gwyneth

Top stylst Lotho

With my former Frederick's of Hollywood boss, designer Norman Noriega

We headed to the newly opened Club LAX just behind the Mall of Asia after. Having seen the club on the reality show The Hills, I had really high expectations going there. In my opinion, the people behind the club could've made it more grand, having locations in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.





Never mind my high expectations, we still had fun though! haha

:)

Farewell..



I have been working for the Frederick's of Hollywood Group, as a designer, for already a year now. But it's already time to bid my FOHG family so long.





As I say my farewell to the lingerie industry, I say hello to my former family... Karimadon!


No goodbyes...

:)

Fashion shoot

My cousin Andy, who's living my dream to study in the Fashion Institute of Deisgn and Merchandising in San Francisco, will soon be graduating. Recently she had her very first professional photoshoot for her styling class, in a studio, with a photographer and real models. The works! Here's what they came up with..













Andy kept on talking about their male model, Julian Shratter and shared with me a link they got from YouTube. Check it out!!!



One word... HOTNESS!!!!! He's super cute!! ahahahahahhahaha

I'm so proud of you cuz! Congrats!

:)

Monique on The Hills

I just saw the second to the last episode of this season's The Hills, and it was one of the best I've seen from this show!!! Just like everyone who have seen this episode, I believe that the hihglight would have to be the call of Spencer to Lauren. I don't know if it's a real moment, but it seemed sincere and heartfelt. Haha It was also a proud moment for Filipina designer Monique Lhuillier, when Heidi chose her to deign the dress for her wedding.



For the people who have not yet seen this week's episode, watch it now here!!!

I'm scared for this season to end!! It means that it's going to be goodbye to Lauren!!!

Boys Over Flowers on YouTube



I have not been able to watch Boys Over Flowers because of the super early schedule of the show! When I get home from work, it's already over! Sometimes, I even run just so I could catch even the last part of the episode, but I usually never succeed! ahahhahahahaha

The other day, I was super surprised to find out that my workmate, Cris, had been watching the actual Filipino dubbed episodes on YouTube! When searching for epsiodes, just type on the seach box, "boys over flowers tagalog". And there! All the episodes that you've also missed, you can now watch online! Convenient right?? Now I don't have to rush home from work anymore!!! ahahahahahahha

On a different note, while watching The Singing Bee last Sunday, I noticed that their contestants for that episode were teams of different TV shows of ABS-CBN. While, Cesar was introducing the teams, I caught myself asking if the guy on the Boys Over Flowers team was cute. Startled, I realized that it was my friend Kiwi whom I was eyeing on! ahahahahhahaha I immediately texted him to tell him that he was on TV. He said, "Oo nga eh hehe" Then I asked if he was doing voice-over work for the show, and he replied, "Yup.. si So Yi Jeong". OHMYGUARD!!!



HANTARAY!!!

ahahahahahahha

:)

No more

This morning I forgot that American Idol is already over, and was even still anticipating to go home and catch a brand new episode. Awww... Wala na! This was a super bonggang season! Until next year, Seacrest OUT! haha

She has finally arrived.. AGAIN!

If you think the break has already happened for this homegrown girl, think again...

She recently debuted her first single "Note to God" in the show where the host she calls, "MOMMY OPRAH"! haha



TARAY!!!

That's not all! She also will be having her first ever Hollywood movie- Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, where she plays herself and compete against the Chipmunk in a singing competition!


KABOG!

:)

Incomaparable!

Where in the world is the Criminal??? Will he go to jail???

I heard on the radio or is it the evening news that there are a total of 40 sex videos on Hayden "SEX ADDICT" Kho's laptop. And amazingly, it was said that doctor to the stars, Vicky "COUGAR" Belo had the copy of the video of poor Katrina "THE VICTIM" Halili before it even broke out! So how do you think it all connects? I can just imagine....



As for "SEX ADDICT", I have no more words left for you!! YOU'RE DONE HERE!!!

Current obsession



I'm currently obsessing on the show Boys Over Flowers on ABS-CBN! It's the Korean version of the hit show Meteor Garden from Taiwan.

Boys Over Flowers had started last week. I never got to watched it at first because it is aired super late. I accidentally changed the channel, last Saturday, and stumbled on channel 2. I started watching the show, which turned out to be marathon of the first few episodes of the series. I got super excited, because was able to finally see the beginning!

It's so funny, I remember rushing from school to my condo just to watch Meteor Garden , when I was a freshman in college. Now naman, I'm already working and I think I will be doing the same thing all over again! Super nakakaaliw! Watch it!







Ang cute ng Korean cast!!! ahihihihihi
