I must admit that the only reason why I still watch this cycle is because I feel that I have an obligation to blog it here. Since I started this series 2 cycles ago, I do not want to miss out on this cycle despite it being very dull and boring. Gosh, every time I watch this cycle's episodes, I can't wait for it to be finished. Anyhow, I still believe Elina is my #1 choice. Find out who said buh-bye this week by watching the episode here:

By the way, even their photoshoot's themes are getting more boring. I am no longer interested in their make-up too :( yay!

ANTM Cycle 11: bye isis.
Not for anything else, I am just glad that Isis had to say buh-bye in the recent episode. She was becoming more and more uncomfortable with every thing about (and around) her and she was better off somewhere else but there.
On similarity note, don't you think my favorite ELINA and Julia Stiles look similar?

ANTM Cycle 11: episode 5
Just I as I thought I was feeling ok, I began to feel the chills again, felt really weak and had to rush in the CR. Looks like it's not just one nasty flu it is an intestinal flu. We gotta see the doctor later when hubby comes home.
In the meantime, can you watch yesterday's ANTM's series with me? I'll do my review when I'm better.

ANTM Cycle 11: episodes 3 & 4.
Honestly, I am beginning to get tired of watching this cycle. I do not see anyone with the model potential save for ELINA (but who am I to judge :P), no wonder the ratings are getting lower and lower each episode. Also, I want Isis to be out the next season, she is not a top model material. Anyhoo, for posting purposes and for those who are still into it, check the links below and watch the episodes 3&4 (the makeover edition) :).

ANTM Cycle 11: the 2 hour premiere.
I am 2 weeks behind my ANTM Cycle 11 entries :( Anyways, I'll try to catch up next week and post it a day after the weekly show.
To be honest, I have missed the 2-hour premiere and instead watched it in You Tube yay! I am quite disappointed with this cycle's contenders and is booting for only 2 girls, yes 2! And Isis, the tranny, Oh I don't think she/he has what it takes to be the next ANTM. Also, there are reports that their ratings went down to 11% uh-oh.

ANTM Cycle 11: Are you Ready For this?
If I could throw some virtual shout-out, that would go to my co-ANTM addict/blogging friends VAL & VANNIE!!!
I so can't wait for ANTM Cycle 10 which will premiere on September 3, 2008!!! with a 2-hour premiere, TFC babye na hahaha!!! (sorry I couldn't stop myself from typing so many exclamation points LOL!) Here are some bits and pieces of the new cycle that we are all awaiting: (SOURCE: wikipedia) - The winner will win management and representation by Elite Model Management, a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics, and a cover and six-page fashion spread in Seventeen magazine.
- The promotional catchphrase of the cycle is "Feel The Love".
- The international destination for this cycle is Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
And here is the most awaited part: This cycle includes (for the 1st time!) a transgendered contestant to qualify in the 14 finalists. This is something to watch out for.
So, the rumors that the show has gone to a new management is so so not true as the 4 judges are still the same: Tyra, Paulina, Miss J., and (my) Nigel LOL!Sunday, August 17, 2008 | Posted by something purple at 7:30 AM 8 comments Links to this post

PROJECT RUNWAY PHILIPPINES: what do you say about this?
If you haven't heard about this yet (or am I too late to blog about it), you gotta watch the 1st season's 1st episode in full at bryanboy.com and tell me your thoughts?
I have no qualms on us copying or franchising some international shows but they better make sure they do it good if not better. And I hope ABS don't pushthrough with their plan of having a gossip girl version, I just don't think they should. Philippine's Next Top Model for me was a flap. But I think Project Runway Philippines will be the opposite, looks very promising to me. Watch it!

who's who in the all-new 90210?
Are you a big fan of 90210? I was. I have been following them when they were still on air. The show will be back on air but with completely new cast save for some who will join the new group. Check this out for the all-new 90210 Cast's photo slideshow.

i want my mama!
After weeks of having no bouts of homesickness. I suddenly miss my mom. I want to watch this movie but it would be perfect if I watch it with her. I remember how we're both excited when we watched The Devil Wears Prada 2 years ago. I think this is a perfect mom-daughter movie. Oh well, I guess I have to set this aside for now and reserve watching this (in DVD na lang) until my mom comes over to visit us. Sigh.

havis on SATC
Got this from the havaianasPH newsletter: ( i tell you, ngayon pa lang nauuso ang havaianas dito at ang mahal pa ha!)
Apart from their impeccable fashion sense and eclectic style, Carrie, Samantha,
Charlotte and Miranda have much in common with Havaianas: their love for all
things fun, functional, and fashionable. And there’s nothing like an endorsement
from the fabulous foursome of HBO’s Sex and the City to seal a fashion staple’s
style status: check out Park Avenue Princess Charlotte York, played by actress
Kristin Davis, at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week toting the Havaianas “Candy” ad in her hands.
The “Candy” ad campaign was created by Brazilian agency AlmapBBDO especially for the United States. Its special appearance on the big screen version of Sex and the City pleasantly surprised both the agency and Havaianas brand executives.

Why do people with so much talent waste their time, money and throat on drugs? Sayang super! I hope she'll get help before it's too late and we'll all just meet her at the crossroads.

oh ces, be careful next time.
I was all glued at TFC for the past 10 days to watch updates on Ces Drilon's Abduction. I am glad that they were freed. She talked about the traumatic but very enlightening experience she had with her kidnappers. Maybe, this one's a precaution to all the other very brave journalist in the Philippines. Listen to her 1st press release.

Steven Curtis Chapman's daughter Maria
While I was surfing on some school girl costumes for hubby's cousin, this is what I saw: Steven Curtis Champman's 5 year old Daughter, Maria dies in a tragic accident. It was very hard for me to decipher all the other happy events that happened before the tragic accident. Apparently, Maria's brother's SUV was the one who killed her while he was doing some backing on the driveway. You can click on the link for the whole story and here's a blog made in memory of the very energetic and free-spirited, Maria: in Memory of Maria.
Tomorrow morning if you wake up
and the sun does not appear
I will be here
If in the dark, we lose sight of love
Hold my hand, and have no fear
'Cause I will be here
I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
I will be here
Tomorrow morning, if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I will be here
Just as sure as seasons were made for change
Our lifetimes were made for these years
So I will be here
I will be here
And you can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me
Tomorrow morning, if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I will be here
Oh, I will be here.

set your alarm at 8/7c tonight.
Hubby left VERY early this morning and as I was preparing a very late breakfast for mini-stripe, I saw the note he left about the wine club he wants me to surf on. Yes, we are both certified wine lovers and he has been wanting to join this club eversince. But the procrastinator in me said to myself that I should be relaxing and watching Tyra or Ellen. So, as I was scanning the TV, I saw David Cook at Fox. He was misty eyed and I was really moved by his words: "Tonight will be a culmination of my hardwork. Who would have thought that the guitar my Dad gave to me at 13 will go along way." I bet David A. will win because he is more talented but I am rooting for David C. because he has the more star potential. So anyways, set your alarm and watch the big 2 hour American Idol Season Finale tonight at 8/7c! See you!

Lot 8 Boutique.
Do you remember her? Yes, she's the Chloe Dao of Project Runway 2 Big Winner. From all the designers who joined or won Project Runway, she's the only designer whom clothes I would wear. It depicts my feminine taste of clothing and her styles are very classic too, not too loud, not too designerish. I chanced upon her online store, called Lot 8. She has a shop and a salon in Houston and is planning to expand in the bigger cities of New York and L.A. Here are my current picks from her collections (I just wish I have the body for these clothes!!!), though her site seems not to be updated. But, nevertheless, it's worth your visit.

Without Further Much ado...
Here are the YouTube Videos of America's Next Top Model CYCLE 10, all 5 parts of it.
And Yes, Whitney is the very 1st Full-Figured not Plus-Sized model to win the competition.
You'll find out why she won over the very consistent weekly challenges winner, ANYA.
Whitney definitely humped and rocked the runway *not to mention she was piercingly beautiful, Anya's Dresses were too tight for her to give her best runway walk and Fatima, she was out.
See on September for ANTM CYCLE 11!!!
Now on to American Idol's season finale on Thursday!

34 Ways to say Happy Mother's Day!
I know, I know Mother's day over! But this video is too hard to resist so I am posting it here. A friend sent it to me and I was just laughing the whole time hahah! On that day, my son greeted me for about 10 times only, whenever the phone would ring he'll blurt out: "Happy Mother's..." (yun lang nawawala lagi ang day LOL!). And yes he called me 'pretty mom' for the 1st time. Remember kids don't lie LOL!
