Everyone thought of it as a simple domestic problem between husband and wife... However, Kris Aquino-Yap confirmed that she is already calling it quits.
The controversial sister of President-Elect PNoy, finally decided to raise the white flag, throw the towel, and go to the opponents bench to congratulate the winners. In her "farewell episode" on ABS-CBN's "The Buzz", she declared that the marriage is over on her part.
Apparently, the actress-host and cager husband James Yap have done their best to save their up and down relationship. Despite these efforts, to eventual breakup came to reality.
My Twisted View:
Is there anything surprising about this? We all know that Kris cannot manage a relationship. Remember the time that the media feasted on her breakup with Joey Marquez? She acted like a child or should we say an immature person. She cannot handle the rigors of a relationship (that whether she likes it or not, is under media scrutiny). The fact is aggravated by marrying a famous basketball player in his prime... definitely an eye-candy for younger ladies.
If we go back to the start of the relationship, it started as being friends. The then rookie at the professional league got close to a member of the clan that is identified with the franchise the player is playing for. Could it be Yap's way of staying in the team/achieving a higher celebrity status/ensuring a comfortable life? Only the two of them knows.
It is just a sad fact that the announcement came days before Kris' brother takes oath as the President of the country. Again, the question is: Could it just be Kris' way of trying not to be outdone by her brother in terms of media mileage?
As of now, I'll try to think of other probabilities.
Let's wait and see the next chapter in the Kris Aquino story.
I have maintained my silence for months, primarily due to my writer's block. No matter how I get "crazy" ideas on my head, I can't finish off an article. All of them ended up being saved in my drafts, but not posted.
I am hoping that a change in my daily regimen will rekindle my burning ideas... I am positive that I will be able to post all of my drafts (I'm sorry that the issues are already cold.). I just want to share what are my ideas at the moment.
So what can i say is that thanks for the person who pushed me to write again...
Miguel Angel Cotto, the WBO Welterweight Champion is known for his skinhead getup during his fights. Little do we know the reason behind it.
Cotto, has problems with lice as a teenager. Known for inhabiting long-haired person, this was a major turn-off for the boxer, then in his early years of boxing.
The use of traditional medication like vinegar and coccnut oil didn’t work. Medicated shampoos were ineffective as well.
His solution to the problem? To get a razor and shave his hair. From that point onward, he never have problems with lice again.
Pound for Pound King Manny Pacquiao will sign an advertisement contract with Lamoiyan Corporation for his upcoming fight with WBO Welterweight Champ Miguel Cotto.
According to an insider, who refused to be named, Pacquiao will be wearing on his shorts the logo of Licealiz, a product of the company.
“This is a defining moment for our company.”, Mr Cecilio Pedro, Lamoiyan Corp. President said. “Like Manny, we will try to raise the Filipino Brand in the International Arena. Manny will be a good model for us for he symbolizes our company— facing great odds against bigger competition, but survive and prevail.”
“Together, we will fight against kuto (Lice), I mean Cotto. You know…” Pacquiao said.
“It is a very effective way of advertisement, for Manny’s fight will be viewed by Millions of Filipinos.”, Pedro added.
The price of the deal was undisclosed, but some insiders said it amounted for 20 Million Pesos.
Pacquiao donned the logos of a car battery and a cocoa brand in his previous fights.
Eraño Manalo, the executive minister of Iglesia ni Cristo, died in his home Monday. According to church officials, It is believed that the death of Eraño Manalo, also known as Ka Erdy, was brought on by cardiopulmonary arrest. It was also believed that Manalo was suffering from prostate cancer. He was 84.According to an INC member who has access to the bereaved family, Manalo was surfing the internet that day after a day of religious work.
According to the investigation of the INC officials, Manalo was reading a blog in Blogger.com when he accidentally opened a link showing a poster of Ang Dating Daan’s Eli Soriano greeting his group for the sect’s 95th anniversary. They were assuming that Manalo’sheart was strained by the “sacrilageous” poster and the article that accompanied it.
Preparations are now being made for the interment of the religious leader.
(Filipino Yellow Journalist is expressing his sincere condolencesto the Manalo family and the whole Iglesia ni Cristo).
As I write my blog today, I was absent from class. The reason? A very heavy traffic that affected the National Highway in Calamba City and the SLEX (on the laguna part from the calamba interchnage) as well.
I hold no grudge to the INC nor I am a member of their arch-rival religiuos group. However, i was very pissed when I learn that the members of INC-Calabarzon region caused a very big traffic jam in Calamba and neighboring towns.
They are on the way to Aston Fields, a subdivision in Brgy. Tulo, Calamba City Laguna (located beside Carmelray Industrial Park 2), for their "convention" (or whatever). So all the vehicles carrying these believers will converge in Calamba City.
If you are not from the Cabuyao- Calamba City -Sto. Tomas (Batangas)-Tanauan (Batangas) area, nor you regulary travel by the SLEX on the way to Southern Luzon, I'll familiarize you with the situation. The regular choke points as of this writing are: In Calamba the San Juan Bridge (located near the calamba Interchange, where construction work is on-going); Brgy. Turbina (where the bus pick up and drop off point is located); Carmelray II Industrial Park (during changes of shift); Yazaki-Torres Mnfg.-Lyceum of the Phil. Univ.- Laguna area (during changes of shift of workers and off school hours) and Yakult Phils. Going the other way, the traffic will be at Calamba-Crossing and in Brgy. Halang at the intersection beside Hectan Building.
In Sto. Tomas there are the First Philippine Industrial Park, that elicits heavy traffic that goes even well past Yakult in Calamba, and the bus stop-Sto. Tomas Public market area (kinda expected). In Tanauan, the Poblacion area is a choke point, but once you've passed by First Asia Institute of Techonology and Humanities, traffic will be a breeze.
To sum it up, the major choke points of the cities and town I have mentioned are due to rush hour activities.
So imagine thousands of INC members (could be more than a hundred thousand or so), loaded in thousands of vehicles adding up to the usual volume of traffic in the area...
You're right. Expect Pandemonium.
INC members might say, "We posted enough traffic advisory fot today's activity." However, they should be logical enough to know that what they are doing will cause a lot of harm to other people.
Take my sister's case for example. Her workshift begins at 9am. Normally, if she leaves our house by 7am, she will arrive to her workplace by 8:30 am. However, today, she arrived at almost 12 noon. WTF!
My college class is by 3pm. However, by 1pm, the jeepney operator's and driver seem to went on strike. Yup! there are no PUJs on the road. Who is foolish enough to waste diesel money on today's trip? I kinda understand them Lugi nga naman sa haba ng trapik.
Im sure I'm not the only one affected by today's event.
So what is my point in writng this blog? To tell INC that there are people who got pissed off by their 95th anniversary brouhaha.
We don't deserve a simple traffic advisory nor an apology. We need INc's reaasurance that they will never pull off such stupidity again. By Jove, this is only their 95th anniversary, so they should make careful decisions for their centennial celebration. Who knows what katontohan or kacoñohan will be up their sleeves five years later.
May all of you INC go to hell for what you did (the here-brained activity) today.
Oh by the way, I found this amusing image on the web.
