blog holiday!!

i'll be somewhere in bohol. have a nice week peep!!

manny pacquiao is a huge business in the philippines


america has britney spears that stands like a corporation. every britney move, breath, sweat is money, not only for britney but also for those who milk the bitch. it doesn't matter if she lied bout her virginity, had a short vegas wedding or wore a dress without undies, every story and every britney picture is money. the pride of the philippines is manny pacquiao, who stands as a business himself. the biggest philippine networks are fighting for exclusivity of airing his high rating bouts. His screechy, awkward and all negative vocals grabbed him a recording contract. His very own accent which only he can understand paved the way for a hosting gig. He also has numerous product endorsements and tv commercials. And now, his boxing matches are also good business for restaurants and movie houses. they are investing on airing the fight for a penny plus a can of beer plus projectors plus exclusivity which will have huge ROI after the 2-3 hours match. Damn, what pacman business could i think of?

manny pacquiao vs ricky haton on may 2

I won't be in the city on may 2 to watch the haton vs pacman boxing match, but sure enough i will get advance and inconsistent text messages about the bout. Let me say "Good Luck to Manny", with huge Filipino pride in me.

I will be in bohol tomorrow. Have a safe trip Olyver!!

like i was in blog holiday

i was actually too lazy to blog in the past weeks because of one very addicting tool that is twitter. i was really into making shout outs (tweets) and making friends, i am addicted to following tweets from olivia munn, kevin pereira (both from attach of the show), fred durst, ryan seacrest giuliana rancic (of e!), oprah, ellen degeneres, and i love that i cursed perez hilton.

c'mon people, join now the bandwagon. register for a twitter account and start tweeting.

the invites

4 hours after the pictorial, here are what our team came up:


this is a good business idea. any takers out there who wanted to try our services?

amateur home studio

volunteered to take shots of the twins for their invitations in celebration of their 7th birthday. i was exhausted that day and so were the twins. at 10 in the evening, all energies went so high that i decided to do second set of pictorial and i set up a mini home studio.

this is how the we set up our amateurish studio using some long white cloth and a duct tape (plus accessories used in the shoot). no flash box, reflector, that black umbrella thing or whatsoever- just the camera and its built-in flash.

the built-in flash is enough already to flatten the background; at high intensity flash, the off background turned to white.

these are some of the shots i took with minimal post processing.

dodging bullet to m&m's

sure my blog title is exaggerated, but that is how i see this picture i discovered thru digg.com - so that means that this picture is not mine. i can only take shots of m&ms still on a black sheet, but exploding m&ms would just be in m dreams. this one surely uses a high-speed camera to capture the movement frame by frame. check out the photographer's gallery here.
