August 21, 2009. The 2nd day of Formo's 4th year anniversary. In line with the anniversary are 4 nights(6pm-10pm) of open bar and launching of 4 new flavors of Mojitos!

Pao was already taking shots of the potato chip muncher when I arrived. I dipped in the photo session and then ate and devoured the FREE and now cold potato chips! LOL.

Ron came in late as usual, but he still was able to enjoy the open bar promo! on the other hand, Onyot, hustler as he is, came in very late as expected and have to buy his drinks because open bar just ended when he arrived! booohooo!

We departy early at around 12am and went to Yellow Cab for some midnight munchies!

Kimmy Dora Press Con!

August 23, 2009. Spring Films' incipient film "Kimmy Dora: Kambal Sa Kiyeme" had a press conference at Castle Peak Hotel Mabolo Cebu City. "Kimmy Dora: Kambal Sa Kiyeme" stars the 38 year old and naturally funny Ms. Eugene Domingo, the newest goddess of comedy.

Bb. Joyce Bernal's first choice to play Kimmy Dora was for real Ms. Eugene Domingo. Talented as Eugene is, both Director Joyce Bernal and Producer Piolo Pascual were confident that Eugene Domingo can pull it off both as Kimmy & Dora!

Direk Joyce Bernal also shared to the press how hands on and dedicated Piolo Pascual is about this project as a producer. Eugene being close to both Ms. Bernal and Mr. Pascual is doing her best to portray the characters and Eugene is very thankful to both the producer and director for the big break!

Eugene Domingo also admitted that she does not act like a Diva because she knows that eveyone on the production team are doing their hardest and it's such a waste of time if you you'd act like a diva. Life's short so be happy and free.

"What is your favorite food?" That was my question for Ms. Eugene Domingo. She loves Dimsum! weee. Now typing that made me crave for some Spring Rolls and Mushroom Siomai! hehe

Piolo Pascual, the super producer, shares the same love for Nilagang Baka with "Kimmy/Dora" Eugene. Piolo Pascual was happy with the outcome of the project and has no regrets with the casting for Kimmy Dora!

Star Patroller Kara Noveda interviewing Mr. Piolo Pascual!

Of course, I wouldn't miss an autograph signing opportunity. hehehe.

Photo Sessions! weeeeeeeeee . And am sooo Oranges and Lemons , that when I stand next to

Piolo Pascual for a photo, my cam exhausted itself with backlog pics! haha! But yeah,...got pics of me with Ms. Eugene Domingo and Ms. Joyce Bernal. ; )

WATCH KIMMY DORA ON ITS OPENING THIS SEPT. 2, 2009!!!

iLearners Inc.'s Ocular Inspection

August 17, 2009. Greg, Shake, Pao and I were off to Sibonga to visit Libo Primary School, which was suggested by Melchor of ABS CBN, in search for iLearner's 2nd adopted school.

Sibonga is about 2 hours drive from Cebu City. We arrived at Sibonga Municipality at around 4:30pm and asked for directions for Libo Elementary School. And people we ask would say "Adto pa na sa unahan.. Layo pa! (It's still Far)" pointing at the top of the mountain. I gulped on a large amount of saliva since it was getting dark and the road up the mountain has no lights. So I continued driving, listening to Gabe Bondoc, David Choi, Super Juniors and Wonder Girls Tracks on a CD Edd burnt a few days back.

After a long, bumpy, wet and muddy drive up the mountain, we arrived at Libo Primary Schoool! Weeeee! The air was cool up there! grrrrr.

When we went down to do the ocular, first thing we noticed was the colorful facade of the school. We also checked the classrooms where the chairs were arranged, floor polished very well and school books were updated! Good for the students!
