Of superstar dreams and making them come true!



Did you ever have one of those childhood dreams of becoming a celebrity and getting famous? 



I had my moments back then! There were times when I would clean up dishes after eating and pretend like I'm on TV in my own cooking show! I would be like "ok, so ilalagay na natin yung ibang dry ingredients at ihahalo..." Or I would be in my room, look at the mirror and pretend I was in my own MTV! (I know... creepy right! haha..)



Yes it was creepy back then to be talking to the mirror pretending it was a camera but it isn't now - with the cellphone cameras, Youtube channels, Facebook live and all other DIY video-creation apps, it's so easy to make childhood dreams come true and become an overnight celebrity! Cue in Mikey Bustos, Charice Pempengco, Yaya Dub and Carrot Man! There are more ofcourse! 



I think I still have that little child in me though and for a few moments, I've had my 15 minutes of fame - I got featured in a full-page ad in the newspaper as endorser for my previous company, starred in a few videos for another previous company, etc. I'm still me though, and 15 minutes of fame is just what is is "15 minutes of fame".



But I'd like to help a little girl get closer to her dreams of being "known" someday as I see in her something I never had, I wasn't as passionate (at least at such a young age), I wasn't as confident, I didn't have the tools or the opportunities she has now and and I sure didn't look THAT great on camera! haha..



So yeah, this may be a small thing but I'm hoping it helps spread the word about her and what she may become one day if we help pave the way for her.


Her name is Shaneil and she is just adorable!


Check our her video here and like - even better if you'd subscribe to her channel because when she becomes famous one day, you at least have the bragging rights to say "I helped her get there!" 





And as for my own dreams of fame and fortune, if you'd like to help, you can check out my stories here https://www.widbook.com/wb/myebooks.

And may all our dreams, no matter how small or big, come true! :)

Last Splash for Summer 2015: Busay Holiday Pools

Image
It is almost the end of summer or has it ended yet considering the rains have been pouring heavily for the last few days? But just because it is almost the start of classes, doesn't mean you still can't have just a little bit of summer fun, right? That's what we did at Busay Holiday Pools yesterday with the Endoma clan and it seriously was a great "huling hirit sa tag-init!" It was actually my second time there and every time I'm there, it always leaves a good feeling in me - although definitely tiring but in a good way! haha.. Ever since I discovered the place, I've been recommending the place to pretty much everyone asking for a nice summer get-away! The clan was supposed to to go the beach and good thing they changed their minds because we sure had great fun! If the clan didn't have plans to go there, we would have gone only the three of us ( me, my hubby and our little boy) because for some reason, every weekend after we were the...

National Holiday: Pinoy Native Games Day 2014! :-)

Image
If I could implement and declare 1 national holiday, it would be called “Pinoy Native Games Day” and it would require everyone to stop whatever they are doing to play the native games we used to play and celebrate it. When I was a kid, the only games we would normally play were ones that required other people’s participation and the best place to be in was always outdoors. Right now, most kids are just glued to their computers, phones and whatever gadget and prefer to be in the comforts of their own room as opposed to getting all sweaty under the heat of the sun. Today, I am celebrating that national holiday (albeit without an approval from the Philippine government)… Happy Pinoy Native Games Day to all! And in the spirit of this celebration, here are the Pinoy games that we so loved before but have been forgotten by the newer generations… Sungka This game is usually played indoors and requires 2 players to move a number of “sigay” (cowry) shells in an ...
