Videos: ABS-CBN' Star Ng Pasko

This song is really nice. I know some would say It's jologs and all, but I won't deny the fact that I'm having LSS  everytime I listen to it. Ah haha. I know you'll like it too.

Top 4: Songs From Glee (Part 1)

4. Rehab - listening to a group of high school students singing about going to rehab is not right in some ways, but the cast of glee can get away with it. I mean, come on, they can sing an address book and people will love still it.

3. Halo / Walking On The Sunshine - ok, so maybe wearing a yellow dress when singing something about the sun or sunshine is not something Simone Cowell will like, but let's give them some credit for having the idea of mashing up these two songs. Unpredictable and good.

Websites: Are You Annoying Online?

The cyberspace gives us all the right to act the way we want to,  afterall, if you are behind that monitor, who can possibly stop you right?
Especially when it comes to online networking sites. We may not be aware of it, but we've actually done one of these things that can be offensively annoying to others.


Status Flooding - Ok, so it asked you what you were doing, and you just answered back. that's fine, but do you actually have to give a new answer everytime you do something new? There is nothing more annoying than knowing too much info from a person's life just by reading their status messages. So please, stay away from that status message from time to time, besides, a little mystery won't hurt.

Bad Photo Tagging - the tag feature is one of the coolest thing ever created online. The fact that you'll be able to know who's in a picture just by hovering over their face is something so useful and fun that people can use it in a very wrong way. By tagging people on a very bad photo taken on them on that night that they got so drunk they can't remember what they were doing, or that stolen shot while they were eating that jumbo slice of pizza. We may think it's fun but the person being tagged can find it very offensive. Thank God for the remove tag option

Mean Comments - So you don't like your friend's link, or you think their blog post is so emo that you just can't stand it, or you find their self taken photos so pathetic. But do you think it's actually appropriate to reply to their posts with those nasty messages to express how you feel?

TV: Glee Is Surprisingly Addictive

What I thought was just another tv show with a bunch of stereotypical teenagers singing together about their lousy love lives turned out to be a tv show about a bunch of stereotypical teenagers singing great music together about their lives. It's like Amercian Idol / MTV with a scripted storyline. (Not that Americna Idol isn't scripted)




The music is just fantastic, the moves, the costumes, the perfomances, just, brilliant! It makes watching television exciting again.  The show's  idea of using modern songs and turning it to a broadway production number, like their rendition of"Mercy" by Duffy, gives it a classic appeal that seperate it from being another "High School Musical" wannabe. And the idea of mashing up old music with new songs like that Halo + I'm Walking On Sunshine number,  avoids it from being another crappy teenage music video from youtube.
