Survivor Philippines: Libreng Ligo and new "ka-bonding" for Jace

since John's loss, Jace isn't so productive over Jarakay tribe. he reiterates that John is his closest buddy on the game and he treated him almost like a brother. Vern says that he only kept the fire on during the whole day. Marlon is concerned of Jace as the boy has been lazy all day and cannot be approached.

Both tribes received a new mail from the admin for another reward challenge. the objective of the game is to fill 5 buckets with mud using their bodies to catch and bring it to their taga-ipon. they cannot touch themselves to help the taga-ipon. the prize at stake, a nice bath! they have been stinking for 15 days now. to cut this short, Naak wins the reward. they have a lot of spongy hair, thanks to Kiko's dreadlocks. a little plugging from Unilever products there.

Jarakay heads back to camp and clean themselves with the water from the sea. even disinfecting their wounds from the other night's insect bites. since Jace is left with Marlon, Vern, Nikki and Charisse, he has nothing to do but to bond with them. a little sparring and taekwondo sessions for Marlon from Jace and Vern. at some point, they forgot about beating the enemy and enjoy that they stayed in the game and spent some moments together.

can you handle my HOTNESS?

(i'm not talking about my gorgeousness here, that's another story soon.) LOL

i just happen to each lunch awhile ago and my food is a little boring. i opened up my drawer and i found out that i got 3 sachets of hot sauce. 2 from PizzaHut and 1 from Chowking. i tore the Chowking hot sauce and added it to my current viand, fried chicken. i cannot handle spicy foods especially when it's Korean. i'll be sweating heavily when i eat that kimchi or that wide selection of fillings to put in a leaf of lettuce before crunching like shawarma. (nakakagutom na ba?) i don't even think of almoranas (now that ruins the appetite) because i just know how to cool myself down with more servings of water.

i'm a fan of sushi. calimak anyone? i miss dropping by at Gateway mall and heading towards the Jumbo Jap cuisine to try everything on the menu once in a while. as much as possible, i drown that pinch of wasabe on Japanese soy sauce before dipping the sushi slice to put into my mouth. i even mastered the technique in using chopsticks. and even enhanced it when i was in HK last year.

i'm of Bicolano roots. so you have an idea that Bicol express is not a new thing to me. it's just been a while back when papa cooked it more spicier than ever! and one time during our family reunion, one relative cooked a different pansit canton and i tell you, no one was able to eat that. even the stray don't didn't handle it.

so now i want to ask you, which spicy seasoning do you want?

Ohmski's Blogline: Pantene satisfaction in 3 Minutes!

last Friday was another night for me to remember. Pantene hosted this night for bloggers and offered the experience their latest product: the new Pantene 3-Minute Miracle treatment. why 3-minutes? it can restore your 3-month damaged hair in as fast as 3 minutes! all of us won't believe it at first and would say, only a miracle could do that. thus, Pantene 3-Minute Miracle gave us a new gift that would fix all hair problems, again, in just 3 minutes! me, as a Pantene user myself, is also curious to try this out.

everything went well and all is done, 3 minutes by 3 minutes. the program started with a 3-minute countdown, i ate all everthing in my plate in 3-minutes (joke! and another set of food from the TasteAsia buffet which i enjoy everytime, thank you very much), and i would even give a testimony that Pantene really worked in 3 minutes! i have alex, rio and even my sister with her officemates who won the "Pantene version" of Pinoy Henyo. i'm so proud of her. the game was already a give-away. guess what's behind your back in the shortest time for 3-minutes. it's cool that the only thing left to guess was the product itself. it's even better when you say it right.

one of the highlights of the night was when Judy Ann Santos arrived. i am a confessed Juday fan and i'm so happy that she went to the event. but i felt bad that we have no photo souvenir together. lucky for azrael and joriben, two online friends to be able to take pictures with her.

Juday narrates her experience with the whole advertising campaign and she too is amazed that Pantene 3-minute Miracle Treatment worked for her. so she vouches for this product for everyone to try.

the night closed with live bands especially with Pinoy Dream Academy contender, RJ Jimenez that serenaded all guests with hits for the heart and songs for the soul.

in short, na-starstruck talaga ako. hahaha

Survivor Philippines: Jarakay?! Ganon?!

John Lopez, the Automechanic Model, has been turned down by the alliance he belongs to. mainly on his condition which almost get on for the second time before the Tribal Council. (aba, Jace, bakit nman?) but before the voting session, Paolo interviews each of them. John exposes his vote for Nikki for she is the spoiled princess of the tribe. and his experience of having a hard time breathing every morning. (hmmm.. John baka iba na yan. hindi kaya na-mumu ka? Kaye had an experience with this pero unlike yours.) this has been asserted by Jace, Vern and Marlon. while Paolo reads the votes, we can see that Marlon shakes his head for the loss of one of the muscle Jarakay. John exits the Tribal Council and puts Jace responsible for the tribe.

Naak still fun pa rin! Cris (cramps, Chitae) had a visit from his siblings! hahaha... local monkeys from Koh Tarutao that is. Kiko, Kaye and Zita had a play on voices. Rob, together with Kiko and JC, continues to stick to their alliance.

Survivor Philippines: Lechon works!

Naak wins 2 challenges in a row! after enjoying the lechon de leche from the Reward Challenge, Immunity idol is back with them. nakatulong ang pagkain ng madaming lechon para maibalik ang energy. the challenge's objective is to tag the person at the tail of the opposite tribe while tied together and carrying a 10-pound bag each person. once a person is tagged, he or she will be put to jail and give the bag to the teammates to increase the burden.

nagkakaladkaran pa habang hinahabol ng Naak ang Jarakay. natanggal din ang swimsuit ni Kaye and Cris is to the rescue to cover her up. (hmmm... cramps, ha.) as they continue, lalong nahirapan si Kaye dahil bumababa s Zita para lumangoy at magpadala na lang sa hila ng tribe. Kaye has been yelling on Zita to walk upright and cooperate with her kasi hindi na nya kaya. Rob, on Naak's head, tags Nikki, Charisse, Marlon, Vern and finally John and no one on Naak has been caged.

Jace carrying all 60 pounds of bags struggle to catch up with the challenge. kahit papano nakakaawa sya nung sya na lang mag-isa. John also says na parang tanga sina Nikki and Charisse na nagchi-cheer para sa Jarakay.

Jarakay returns to camp tired and quiet.

i missed talking about Sirenea

tagal na rin na pinagusapan natin ang Shell Phone (teka, ano number ng shell phone mo? hahaha) at bukas matatapos na ang tv adaptation ng GMA na Dyesebel. i missed some episodes buti na lang i was able to follow them through their "ang nakaraan" inserts. but i have some concerns on the show:

some negative points:
  1. anu nangyari kina Jelai (jellyfish) and Butete (mukha syang sea urchin pero hindi) na friends ni Dyesebel sa Sirenea? at lumaki na lang sya kasama sina Bukanding (Paolo B.) at Erebus (Alfred V.)
  2. nakakuha ulit ba ng perlas si Amafura (Rufa Mae Q.) at kaya na nya ulit magibang-anyo?
  3. pano bumait si Don Juan? (Ricky D.)
  4. Hero Angeles' role (Mark) didn't give much contribution on the story. as like to Paolo (Aljur A.) and Shiela Mae (Kris B.).
  5. nung umpisa pasaway pa si Dyesebel, not good for younger audiences to imitate.
good side:
  1. ang galing ni Buboy!
  2. another creative production from GMA. na-enhance pa nya yung story with additional fantasy characters and settings.
  3. great apperance by Elizabeth Ramsey as Mother of Pearl.
  4. good choice of location for the first parts of the series. ganda ng Palawan.
  5. daming pakulo ha.
  6. the antagonists have played well. you can have the feeling of irritation kapag nakikita mo sila.
  7. bare skin and scales exposures. heheh
  8. nice theme song too.
congrats GMA for another job well done. i'll check Gagambino next time.
