  1. Shalani Soledad interview with Kris Aquino on The Buzz: let’s wait and see what happens next

    May 25, 2010 by ajay

    I missed seeing The Buzz last Sunday where Kris Aquino interviewed President-to-be Noynoy Aquino’s girlfriend of almost two years, Shalani Soledad. Thank God for Youtube we were able to see it. The full transcript of the interview is also on the ABS-CBN website and Barrio Siete.

    Their love story has been likened to that of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline (Jackie) Bouvier. Like Noynoy and Shalani, he was also a senator and she was a reporter when they first met. We’re closely watching developments on their story. After all, by becoming President of the Philippines, he now becomes the most eligible bachelor in the country. Will his friendship with Shalani (who is 20 years his junior) end up at the altar, or will he stay single all his life?

  2. My votes for the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs 2009 project

    July 30, 2009 by ajay

    There’s a search going on over at The Influential Blogger for the best newbie Filipino-owned blogs who’ve made made a splash in the past year. It’s called the The Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs 2009. I am submitting my vote before the contest closing today because I’d really like some friends to win and I hope that one little vote can contribute to the vibrancy that is Philippine blogging.

    I’ve observed how this contest ran and noted that being chosen an “emerging influential blog” actually translates to being popular, SEO-savvy, and being able to tirelessly campaign among your peers, while having a good marketing pitch. Nothing wrong with that. I am actually reminded of the time when I was a child and crowned the Mayflower Queen of our barrio because my relatives raised the most money, hehehe. Anyway, my choices here include sure winners, two group blogs I am active in and some silent favorites. If only the number wasn’t limited to the Top 10, I’d definitely choose more. Here it goes: :P

    1. Barrio Siete
    2. Litratong Pinoy
    3. Dear Bloggery
    4. Dare to Speak Out
    5. Social Media Philippines
    6. Patay Gutom
    7. Cebu Bloggers Society
    8. Millionaire Acts
    9. Pinoy Cravings
    10. Sumthin Blue

  3. Meet me in Barrio Siete

    June 2, 2009 by ajay

    As I said in my Plurk, I need to evolve in my blogging and that’s why I joined Barrio Siete, the refuge of all barrio folks who have made their mark in the city. It is always nice to go back to one’s roots and smell the breeze. My only mistake is that I thought we would all reminisce about all things promdi. I didn’t quite expect that we would talk about current affairs and intellectual chorva of the highest order. Napasabak tuloy ako!

    Take for instance my post yesterday. Usually, I prefer writing about food, travel and other kakikayan sa buhay. I never really thought I’d go back to writing about Katrina Halili and the danged video scandal again. I had to because I need to blend in and be a trying hard social climber with all those heavyweights in BarrioCity like Reynz, the CPA with MBA from George Washington U, Cath ~ the CPA with doctorate and former dean, and other twinkle twinkle little stars (stand up to be counted na lang mga bro…. at bra).
