Nine days to go before the Philippines decide who should be the next president. I think I have already made my decision on who should have my vote but I will not spill the beans yet because I might change my mind the last minute. My friend sent me this email that is just perfect for the coming elections. Whoever made this, you are brilliant! Here it is. Heaven and Hell  While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Philippine Senator was tragically hit by a car and died. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you." "No problem, just let me in," says the Senator.. "Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from the higher ups. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spen...

I finally got the chance to watch American Idol Season 9 after two weeks of being away from the television.  I was glad that the remaining six hopefuls were my favorites.  The result of this week's competition made me sad and made me happy all at the same time. Siobhan made it to the top 6 but during the results night, America voted it was time for her to go.  I was saddened because she's my favorite of all the girls.  I like her because she's unique and she's not afraid to show who she is. On the lighter and brighter side, I felt that country music week was the start of the competition because everyone did a great job and for the first time in AI 9, I felt Casey James singing a song.  Although, Crystal didn't wow the judges, she still has a great voice and still remains a great competitor.

After David Archuleta, David Cook and Kris Allen, it is now time for Kelly Clarkson to invade Manila.  I received an email from JobsDB and they are giving away tickets for Kelly's concert in Manila on May 1, 2010 by just applying for the position of Sales Professional. Don't worry guys, you can still watch the concert buy buying your tickets at all TicketNet outlets, you can also ask for reservations by calling them at (02) 911-5555. Kelly Clarkson is the original American Idol beating Justin Guarini on the first season of AI in 2002.  To date, she holds the title for selling most number of albums of all the American Idols.  Her top selling singles are A Moment Like This, Because of You and Breakaway.

Hurray for Mother Earth!   Yesterday was a busy day, it is Earth Day celebration, and people from all over the world contributed something to save our dear earth.  One event that caught my attention was the The GreenShows runway show that features dresses made out of recycled materials.  Gary Harvey, former creative director of Levi's Strauss and Dockers Europe, was the designer who wowed the audience during the event.   I especially love the dress in photo that says what Mother Earth wants to say to us.  To check out other recycled couture, click here .

This season is about colors and chunky accessories and what better way to be attuned with the current fad is by having these stacked bangles from Asos .  Guess what?  This whole stack costs only $30.44, that is big savings.  Stack all of them or wear them in singles, it doesn't matter... you can even share them with your sister or BFF.
