ABS-CBN:My Favorite TV Station of the Year

ABS-CBN:My Favorite TV Station of the Year

For this writing project. We were asked by Richard Paglicawan to choose who among the top TV stations are our favorite.

Favorite TV Station of the Year: Bloggers' Choice - #NCA2012
 
Since time immemorial, I am fascinated and watch only one channel and that is ABS-CBN -Channel 2.  I always love ABS-CBN ever since I was a child. Why? Because I grew up watching the afternoon news anchored by Ted Failon, Korina Sanchez and Magandang Gabi Bayan and TV Patrol  by Noli de Castro.

Remember this tagline? "Batu-bato sa langit, ang tamaa'y 'wag magagalit. Ang pikon ay laging talo." 

"Yan ang sigaw ng sambayanan" '90s ABS-CBN public service show, "Hoy Gising" rouse my interest in our country's current situation. The "Hoy Gising" anchor Ted Failon's solid voice warning sleepyheads from beds of corruption, incompetence and inaction still lingers in my mind. "Hoy Gising" is famous for lambasting the crooked and the inept, "Hoy Gising" was the public's confidant, with Ted Failon and Korina Sanchez known for fiery commentaries and follow-ups, some even prompting libel cases and death threats to the anchors of the show. They even tackle problems on bureaucracy. 

I also love how Gina Lopez's pro-environment activities. Who can forget her campaign for La Mesa Dam?  ABS-CBN PR Manager Kathy Solis also provided me with several opportunities to cover and had interaction with my favorite stars and singers. ABS-CBN listen not only to the people involved in the story but they also ask about the viewers' point of view through regular polls and viewers interaction.

I am also a The Buzz fanatic, I don't dare miss any of their episodes on a Sunday afternoon. This is where we get the latest buzz about the kapamilya stars in the showbiz world.

Not to mention, how we laugh hard when my then, three year old nephew warned his mom that she could not spank him because he'll dial Bantay Bata 143. This is how influential ABS CBN is.

I am so addicted to Showtime because of Anne Curtis and Vice Ganda. I also love Gandang Gabi Vice and never miss any of GGV episode if possible. Sobrang Wagi ng mga iba't ibang shows ng ABS-CBN kaya super love din sila ng mamamayang Filipino.

JUSTIN BIEBER: Disrespect Pacquiao

JUSTIN BIEBER: Disrespect Pacquiao

Justin Bieber : Look what Mayweather did to Marquez.. #moneyteam #nocompetition (17 hours ago)

Justin Bieber : Pacquiao doing the lean with MJ .. Classic moment (15 hours ago)

Justin Bieber: He has nothing to gain fighting pacqiao, Floyd has never in his professional career lost a fight and Pacqiao lost his last two fights. If Floyd wins its not that big of a deal Cuz it would be his third loss in a row, and lf he loses he's gonna ruin his legacy either way there's no big win for Mayweather.. Mayweather is boxing (6 hours ago)

Justin Bieber: Dad wake up (6 hours ago)

Justin Bieber: If they were beliebers I know they wouldn't leave my side over an Boxing opinion I have (1 hour ago)

Reaction:
 
I realized now, why Sophie hated Justin Bieber so much. He is very bad. He should mind his own business. There is no need to do what he had done.

I know that everybody is entitled to their own opinion. But God also prohibits everyone from uttering or saying false information about other people or Insulting other people during their trials. 

What Justin Bieber did is clearly adding insult to injury. This Cliché to make a bad situation worse; to hurt the feelings of a person who has already been hurt is very unethical and uncalled for.

I hope you will stop Justin. Concentrate on your own career.

DIANA STALDER: Stem Cell Facial Therapy

I got one of the three slots for the stem cell facial therapy given for free by Ms. Dina Stalder to the first three social media bloggers who arrived at the Casmara Stem Cell facial SPArty for social media hosted by Diana Stalder last December 6 2012 at Svelte One Orchard Road Condominium, Eastwood City. I am really thankful to be one of the first to try their newest skin care products. I also love the refreshing food and drinks they served during the party.

It awakens your skin's stem cells by providing essential energy that improves the function of the stem cells. Chondricare, a potent ingredient, is a protein that protects the skin's stem cell from harmful free radicals.

 

The dermatologist explained to us that their facial was non-invasive so that means there's no side effects to be worried about. She said that they use Casmara products for their facial. They assured us that Casmara had put time and effort to study stem cell facial for several years before launching it to the market.

MOMMY DIONISIA: On Manny's Victory, Defeat,Loans and Conversion

MOMMY DIONISIA: On Manny's Victory, Defeat, Loans and Conversion

According to Mommy Dionisia, allegedly, since Manny was converted into another religion by a Pastor who victimized him with a $200,000 unpaid loan he started losing in his boxing fights.

Mommy D Pacquiao : Tanggap ko ang pagkatalo niya. Sana huwag niyang kakalimutang mag-sign of the cross. Yun ang nagpapanalo sa kanya noon.

Mommy D : Bahala ang Diyos sa kanya. Itigil na niya ang boksing. Kung gusto niyang mag-pulitiko gamitin na lang niya para tumulong sa iba

Without the rosary there is no Victory :-(  'hope Manny will pray the rosary again soon said my friend.  A lot of my friends were saddened by this revelation.

My personal message to the people's champ Manny Pacquiao: I wish you well. I hope you are okay. You are still our champ! You are still our hero and Pinoy pride. Whatever religion you choose, may God bless you always.
