My Shopaholic Confession

hi i'm ohmski, and i'm a shopaholic.

i have this very impulsive instinct when it comes to shopping. usually when i get bored and i found that i have money in my wallet, i buy all stuff that i want. lately when i had received my christmas bonus, immediately i bought some shirts, shorts and my basic needs for my own pampering. of course, i needed to reserve some for stuff at home and this leads me to the shopping mecca of the philippines, divisoria!

usually every christmas season, me and my mom are going to divisoria and all is on me. we start by dropping off at reyne rejente's meisic mall and from there, i can already get best buys. then a little walk at 168 to divisoria mall even at the tutuban center. even while on the road i can stretch my money and getting the best items on sale. 

i love getting bargains and wholesale items as gifts for my godchildren and relatives. i still end up buying more stuff for me. no need to ask, it's my own money! but i still manage to get all nice stuffs for everyone on the list. i want to be like a Santa on christmas. but i consider factors for the items to give to my love ones. the quality is still number one. that's why i'm having my mom to shop with me because she can be my advisor if an item is good.

but still i end up tired going home because i have bags of clothes and gift items on both hands. even though my feet hurts, i still have another day and another day to sweep the next shopping destination... the mall.

Commercials vs TV shows

bakit minsan mas maganda ang mga commercials kesa sa TV shows? kaya nga ako nag-advertising nung college kasi nakaka-inspire ung mga concepts like Lumen, Karen, Smile, Magpakatotoo Ka, etc. e pag TV shows naman aabot pa tayo sa pang-ookray ng mga talents, settings, computer graphics, at special effects. e ang commercial, ilang segundo lang, paulit-ulit pa. pero wag ka, manghang-mangha naman tayo. tulad nitong bagong commercial ng Milo na napanood ko sa isang site.

o diba ang ganda? pang-champions talaga ang quality. sa TV shows naman maghihintay na lang tayo ng pagtatawanan o kakainisan. ang tagal tagal pa minsan ng transition porke mataas daw ang rating kaya kelangan patagalin pa ang story kaya minsan wala nang saysay sa kwento.

kung ako papipiliin, e di nag-congressman na ako. uyyy, kumanta. haha. GUSTO KO NA TALAGA magtrabaho sa industriya na dapat nandun ako. although masakit talaga sa ulo ang pagkokonsepto (trust me, naranasan ko yan nung college, daming issues!) tapos ilang segundo lang lalabas ang konsepto mo. eto pa, ang laki ng pera sa advertising ata! dami pang perks! hahaha yun un e.

pero sana dba mas maganda sana ang mga produkto sa TV kasi yun naman talaga inaabangan ng mga tao. e sales naman lang ang habol ng mga ads or retentiveness on the minds of the purchasers, consumers, etc. tapos nasspoof pa kaya lalong mas sikat ang mga commercials kesa sa TV shows. tapos nagkakaroon pa ng issues on copyright and intellectual property ek ek.

anung konek ng Milo commercial? wala lang. laking Milo din kasi ako e. pero gusto ko ding maging laki sa gatas. haha

They Aim to Guide Us Choose on 2010

so we only got more than a year for the next election. and personalities are already giving slight campaigns for themselves and we assume that ah, this dreams for a position in 2010. but do they deserve to be in that place? isn't it that we're tired of the same promises, programs and aims. we need the Obama of the Philippines that will bring CHANGE to the land. and please, let's stop all the crab mentality that's been lingering from the top positions of the country upto the smallest people.

now, a body that will guide us who to choose on the upcoming elections has been formed. the Coalition for the Deserving envisions to take us Filipinos to the better state of living well not maybe immediately but somehow guide us to choose the best leader for the next administration. it is formed by four parties: Aksyon Demokratiko, Reporma, Kilusang Bagong Lipunan and Bigkis Pinoy that will formulate a system that will screen our candidates on their qualifications and later on be DESERVING for the position they aim.

so what do we really need from a candidate? transparency, value, and effort maybe are the biggest factors that we consider. we should not be drawn to the person's popularity, wealth and connection on the political circle; if you are so fed-up by the current political system. i know you don't like what is happening there right? we really want someone who is DESERVING on that high chair to look and guide after us.

the Coalition for the Deserving is launched last Feb 3 2009 at the Manila Hotel, presided by Chairman Perfecto "Jun" Yasay along with the parties mentioned above. through them, we will be able to check on the candidates' winnability and fitness for office. and fortunately, we are able to throw in some questions about the group and they acknowledged the presence of the internet blogging community for a reason: WE HAVE A SAY. the community has been so influential recently.

spread the word so that everyone will be educated in choosing the next one. go to their website and sign up for your support.
