When I told my older brother that I would help him sell his 5 Princess Type Shih Tzu Puppies online, I'm not really sure if I can really help him. He knows that I blog online, but I'm not into buying and selling stuffs online. I dunno, I'm really not the kind who are complacent doing buy & sell or other online transactions. I think the last thing I bought online is for the domain name registration of my blog and some blog hosting. Plus each puppies they're selling is at P10,000 and the female pups is priced a bit higher than that. So, I'm really not confident that I can sell those. So out of  respect :) I took pictures of the puppies (which are very cute, by the way) and upload it online. Put some contact details and specification, then done! But lo and behold in just one week, 3 puppies have been sold. All those puppies have been sold now & I haven't got my bonus from my Kuya yet! Hmmp! Anyway, I'm really amazed how buy and sell websites like Ay...

After 27 hours, and more than 189 comments, we now have 3 winners of  six GOLD tickets worth P2860 each to the much anticipated music event of the year, Then & Now Massive Music Festival 2010 featuring JoJo, Frankie J, Baby Bash, Diana King, SWV, P.M. Dawn,All-4-One and V Factory. But before that, I want to thank DIVAN MEDIA for giving me VIP passes to this event and to the extra 6 gold tickets that I end up giving here on my blog. I also want to thank all the participants for actively participating in this contest, especially to the top commenter who leave more than a hundred comments . I never expected a big turnout on this contest but because of you it's so successful in just 27 hours :) If you don't win in this contest, there's another contest that I will launch so watch out for that.

Aside from JoJo, Frankie J, Baby Bash, Diana King, SWV, P.M. Dawn & All-4-One. V Factory is also here in the Philippines to perform in the THEN & NOW Massive Music Festival 2010 in Mall of Asia Concert Grounds. Jojo and V Factory is the first few to arrived in Manila, so they give us a chance for a little interview. Too bad, JoJo didn't able to come down (she was staying in Sofitel) because apparently she's sick & too tired to meet us :(

Just got home from a sumptious dinner at the Spiral Restaurant in Sofitel . We originally set to meet Jojo but she was not feeling well today but V Factory was there to save the day. I will upload the interview with them later. Anyway if you're wondering what's Then & Now Massive Music Festival 2010 it is a definite all-hits show- not an album tour (where the artist/s only sing cuts from a new-released CD), or a promo tour (where the artist/s only push a couple of songs)- so music fans from all over the country can expect to sing and dance to their favorite tunes all night long.

Starring Jackie Earle Haley, Katie Cassidy, Kellan Lutz, Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Thomas Dekker, Freddy Krueger is back to bring A Nightmare on Elm Street again!
