• Diary ng Panget

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCSKS3iurdk

    Last night, due to heavy traffic, I randomly watched Diary ng Panget without any expectations at all. I just knew that this was an adaptation of a published online novel with the same title. (I was not really a big fan of the book but I blame my demographic.)

    Nadine Lustre shines as Eya a.k.a. Panget, a scholar in the posh Willford University. She works part-time at her aunt’s carinderia, where she meets Chad (Andre Paras), “the ideal guy” who is desperately in love with Lorraine (Yassi Pressman). Lorraine is a nice young British-Filipino girl (with a bad British accent, kidding!) that eventually becomes Eya’s bestfriend. Lory is in love with Cross (James Reid), ”the monster heartthrob”, a typical rebel with unresolved childhood issues. He hides his vulnerability by being mean and just generally destructive.

    To cope with her financial needs, Eya finds another job. Unknowingly, she applies and is hired as Cross’ personal maid. Immediately, she experiences first hand how monstrous Cross is. The challenge does not stop there. People start to notice that they know each other and they seem “close”. Girls crushing on Cross start to wonder if they are an item (an odd one for that matter) or not. Cross takes this to his advantage to further mess with Eya, by telling everyone that he and Eya are indeed in a relationship.

    How will Lory feel about this?

    If Chad loves Lory and Lory loves Cross. Who does Cross love? Find out if there’s a happy ending for our resident Panget, Eya.

    Diary ng Panget is still showing. Give the movie a chance and watch it. Trust me. You will not regret it.

    So we skipped Episode 11 and instead we got a 3-minute summary of what happened in the deleted episode. Oh and finally we some runway walking. Despite having a Movement Coach, this season did not have a lot of runway challenges, except way back in the first episode.

    Here’s a quick recap of the Episode 11 summary and this week’s Episode 12:

  • #AsNTM2 Episode 10: “The Island Girl” aka “Girl Who is Lost” Recap

    Not much happened this episode of #AsNTM2. It might be because a lot of things got edited out following the MH370 incident.

    Oh well, I guess the producers decided to change the title from The Girl Who is Lost to The Island Girl at the last minute.

    Here’s a quick recap of this week’s #AsNTM2 episode:

  • #Travel : Davao, Life Is Here (Day 2)

    image

    Day 2– From Damosa, we took a cab to Sta. Ana Wharf to ride a ferry to Santa Cruz Wharf, Talicud Island.

    Davao’s taxi drivers never cease to amaze us with their kindness and professionalism. They never reject passengers (as long as you are a company of 4 people). Our cab fare was Php 90. I was not paying attention to the time so you can do the math. Transportation in Davao is such a breeze compared to Manila.
