MANNY PACQUIAO: CHECK!!!!

It all started when I was still dating John (now my husband of 4 years and partner for 10 years).  Weekends every time there was a boxing match would definitely be spent at his house with a few friends, beer, grilled prawns and steak, and a hyped up John ready to explode as his idol would throw punches at his challenger.

Yes, I am talking about the "Pambansang Kamao" here. My becoming a fan of Manny Pacquiao started with my husband. The thing is, when I love something or become a follower of someone I am 100% a SOLID FAN! So until this day you cannot bad mouth the Pacman to me because I can dry up your eardrums and defend my main man. Now that's just me...I will make sure to tell on you and let my husband do the rest of the work. Hahahaha!

I love my husband and really, since we've been together it has always been my dream to someway have him meet the CHAMP in person. I want to be the one to be able to give him that experience. We attempted once when there was a party in Republq at Resorts World. We didn't make it and Congressman Manny did not stay long enough for us to catch him inside the club. As soon as we got there he was walking out of the club with Jinkee and my husband and I froze at awe. 

So this time around I had a plan. I sent it out to the universe that this plan will work. I let all my friends know that if they have a PACMAN sighting to inform me right away. I was banking on the fact that my husband and I made a connection with Manny Pacquiao via twitter (thank you spot.ph for making it tweet of the week). In case we get the guts to approach him we might have a chance to get a photo or two. 




Good friend of mine, Edwin Si, informs me of a possible PACMAN visit in their club that same night. I didn't inform my husband for two reasons: first is I wanted it to be a surprise, and second is that if it doesn't happen he won't be that disappointed. I told Edwin to ive me confirmation right away for John and I will be in Fort Bonifacio and their club, Excess, is all the way in QC.

At around 11pm, 10 minutes into our drinks in Fort Bonifacio, I get the confirmation that the PACMAN will be in Excess. I immediately told John to come with me and not to ask any questions: 

"Hun, let's go. We have to go...We have to go to QC. This is important and I can't explain now but let's go."

And he did stand up. I drove to QC but as soon as we got to the club he asked me what were doing there. He was pretty upset already (plus my outfit didn't really match the place and crowd...awkward). At this point I had to tell him.. He gave me "the look" and if he pulls that out there's no stopping him. So I told him and he was ecstatic. I as still nervous because I had to make sure this works. That we could get close to him.

Jinkee Pacquiao was already inside Excess and my husband and I were introduced to several of the people behind that club. I asked if I could go up and meet Jinkee. Ivan, their marketing head, brought me to her and introduced me. She is gorgeous and so thin and hot in her short shorts, ponytailed hair, sparkly headband, and PURPLE YSL TRIBUTE sandals. I love it! She was so friendly and I of course talked to her for a little bit so that she won't feel I'm a psycho fan. Photo op with my husband and yours truly.





I humbly asked if one day she can grant me an interview and she nicely answered yes and pulled out her Blackberry to exchange pins. Super hot momma and really a nice woman. Thank you Ms. Jinkee Pacquiao.

But of course the night is not yet over. We were all getting tensed as to why Manny wasn't there yet. It's getting late. John and Edwin even asked me to BB Message Jinkee and ask her if Manny was still coming. She replied and said yes. As soon as she confirmed this I told John and the rest of the guys that we should move location. They asked where and I said in the "Pacquiao Section" where there is one vacant table. They were hesitant and I told them they (bouncers) will not push you away because A: you are the owners of this club and B: they were very friendly and accommodating (It also helps that you have a girl in a short dress who has tired feet from wearing super high heels...WINK).

We were there...strategically located to not miss Pacquiao when he arrives... But where is he??? Oh my gulay! I just heard someone say that he was in the next table. How could we have missed him?? They were able to bring in Manny inside a club filled with fans without anyone noticing. Good job guys!! Hats off to that. John "went to the restroom" to check if he was indeed there. Came back to me super excited, big smile on the face saying: "He's there! He's there! Let's go!"

In my mind I was thinking it was now or never. All about the timing. I was nervous. Took a few more sips from my drink. John was a little disappointed that I was taking my time. He sat down and was restless... I stand up and immediately said with conviction "Let's do this!"

We went to their table and asked for a photo. All of them were very accommodating. They even asked me to sit with them for a while and was able to have more photos with Jinkee including Chavit Singson. After a little chit chat I stood back up noticing that John was talking to Manny. I joined them and Manny immediately talks to me and asked:

"Binili ka na ba ni John ng airplane? Did he take you out shopping already??"














Oh my gulay!!! He remember us from twitter! I love it!!! Dreams do come true. I can now scratch this off my list (and John's as well).  For years now we've been wanting to meet Manny Pacquiao. For years I've been wanting to do it for John and finally it happened! Thank you to all of my friends who endured our non-stop talks about Manny Pacquiao! Thank you to all of our friends, who, one way or another contributed to leading to this event in our lives! It is truly special for us and we greatly appreciate it.

This has been a long entry but I just really wanted to share the experience and I hope it touched you one way or another!! 

It is now time to go boxing!!

VANESSA PULLS A BLACK SWAN

As you heard earlier on the radio that the Vanessa Hudgens and Alexa Nikolas photos that have been leaked in the web are now hard to find photos (even egotastic had to put them down). 




And no, I am not posting the raunchy gross close-ups and and really pornographic photos. I sincerely feel that Vanessa may need more guidance and therapy in her life. That girl is disturbed...very disturbed... You be the judge...






YOUNG BACHELOR NEEDS OUR HELP

I get a lot of email for gossip, fashion updates, events, and love problems.  I thank all of you for emailing me. Keep sending your email ok? 

We have another love problem here. It is not that grave but I think this young bachelor needs to see what you all think. I already emailed him back regarding my thoughts on his situation but now is the time for all of you to help. So here is his email:



Hello ms. Angelicopter! This is ____ and I would just like to say that I'm a big fan! I always listen to Good Times every morning and it really does make my day. I recently read your blog and came across the letter from one of your fans, I really admire the fact that you took the time to reply to her message. It made me realize that you really are a genuine and nice person.

I really would love to have your opinion regarding my problem. This is not a major thing like the other problems that I hear everyday from your radio show, but still I hope you can share your views regarding the matter. So here it goes. I'm only 21 years old and I'm turning 22 this coming December. I have a girlfried who is working in Canda as a pharmaceutical rep. We're on our third year and things are working out just fine, despite the fact that we're really far away from each other. I admit that there are times when things get a bit problematic because of the "distance" thing, but we always manage to make the relationship work. 

My problem is, my girlfriend is older than me... she is already 24 years old and she is turning 25 this July. She is already on the point where she is looking to settle down and get married... Everyitme we talk, she always asks about my plans for the future. The thing is, I just don't think that I'm ready to settle at this point in time, maybe even 2 to 3 yeas from now. I heard from your show that 27 is the perfect age for a woman to have a baby and when she turns 30, it may lead to a dangerous pregnancy. I just realized that when my girlfiend turns 27, I will be only 23, I just don't think I will be ready by that time to settle down and have a family. 

I always say to her that the time will come when we will get married, and I mean every word of that. The thing is, I really want to be stable emotionally and financially before I committ to her, and I'm afraid that she will get tired of waiting for me to get ready. I just got my first job last year (fresh from graduation) and I'm not really earning big bucks. What should I do? Should I take the risk? or should I wait till the time comes when I'm ready to settle down? I really love and adore her, and I'm sure that she is the woman I want to be the mother of my kids,  I just don't want to disappoint her by making her wait for a long time for me to be ready, I think it is unfair for her. 

I know that you married young, so your opinion will mean so much to me.Thank you very much ms. Chopper! I hope I can meet you in person. :)

Sincerely,
_________


Let us name him Lance. I hope we can help Lance with his situation. I cannot wait to read all your comments.

CAMBRIDGE SATCHEL

Every time I use my red Cambridge satchel I get compliments from it. It's a conversation piece, I must say. I love leather and this is good leather! Oh did I also mention I love color? Well I do and I am loving the new Fluorescent Satchels! 


I have not seen it here in Madison yet (where I bought my brown and red satchels) and Schu, who will be distributing the satchels soon have not yet called me to let me know if they have it already (I gave them my number, obsessed much?). 


Here are some photos taken from the Cambridge Satchel website. 








I am dying to get my hands on the yellow and the pink fluorescent satchel!

HAVE YOU MET PAUL AND JOE???

One of the perks of being a radio talk show host is you get invited to events and/or parties to see what's out there and perhaps "like" what you see and get to share it with others. As you know, in our morning radio show we truly recommend brands and the like from the heart (when asked by our listeners).  

I am lucky to receive an invitation from Paul ad Joe for their 4th anniversary. No, they are not lovers. Paul and Joe is a beauty brand. From runway fashion, to fragrance, and now to beauty, Paul and Joe is one of the leading brands when it comes to cosmetics. I love their products! My first experience with their eye color is when my friend and make-up artist Cay Cuasay gifted me one. I fell in love with the quality and how pretty it was packaged!

With its distinct packaging every girl will enjoy PAUL and JOE Beaute in keeping with its very feminine style. I will be hosting their event tomorrow and I am extending the invitation to you all (don't worry, I got the go signal from Prestige Brands Philippines Inc. which is their distributor here).  You will want to read this invitation carefully and you will not want to miss this event!



SPECIAL DISCOUNT: 25% OFF ON REGULAR ITEMS & 15% OFF ON THE NEW PARASOL COLLECTION TO BE LAUNCHED TOMORROW!!! 

SEE YOU ALL THERE!!! 

FOR THE GUYS THIS IS YOUR TIME TO BUY A NICE GIFT FOR THE LADIES!!! I WILL HELP YOU PICK!!

Thank you so much Prestige Brands for the lovely gifts you sent me! 



 Enjoying my limited edition head band! I love it!! 



Apart from the limited edition Head Band and Towelette here is a closer look at the Parasol collection that I got in advance!


This is the Woman With Parasol eye color that they gave me. Lovely floral box contains shining prism colors that glow like spring sunshine. A soft, airy texture and a perfect fit to the eyes brings out the wildflower in you. Other shades include Sunbeam, Glisten and Picnic (which I will definitely check out at the event tomorrow).


 Softly colored pouts are prefect this season – Alfresco, Chantilly, and Afternoon Delight are their Parasol collection limited shades.  I will ensure you that you will get lots of admiring glances with their shades. Love that feminine wildflower look. They sent me the Afternoon Delight as pictured here! I LOVE IT!! PERFECT FOR THE NATURAL LOOK THAT WE GIRLS LIKE AND OUR GUYS LOVE ON US!


This is just part one! I will definitely update and show you more of their products after the event! I heard that their make-up artist, Paolo Maranan, will be giving tips and make-overs in the event itself!

Thank you for logging on to my blog!

THIS IS SO TRUE AND SO FUNNY!

My husband tweeted me this today and it is just funny! 






That is Shogun Rua "hugging" Wanderlai Silva!
