Quick Hits
Some random stuff:-- This Sunday will be the start of the PBA National Team's first pocket tournament. I know we've been making plans for yet another get-together this weekend, so why don't we watch it? At least it's a team we could all get behind. The team has been divided into two and will play an Iranian team and a young Italian team (which they say has a 7-3 center). The game is at Araneta (the upper B and general admission sections are free to the public, but those are terrible seats), and we could even have a nice dinner at Gateway after. What do guys think? Nood tayo!
-- The Darna episode that aired last night, as well as the one that would air tomorrow night, was the episode they were shooting when we came in for a visit.
-- Has anyone else been watching Pinoy Abroad? It's such a great show, reminds me of those documentaries on Probe about Filipinos living abroad, usually by Cheche Lazaro and Howie Severino. I can't believe ABS-CBN didn't come up with this kind of show first; after all, they've had stations in Filipino communities abroad for the longest time. Also, the show uses that Metropop-winning song by Bayang Barrios for the theme. Sa alaala ng ngiti mo, lumiliwanag ang mundo... Malayo man, malapit din ako... Malayo man, malapit din sa 'yo.
-- Tomorrow's episode of Magpakailanman features the gorgeous Ryza Cenon in the Manilyn Reynes story. Hahahaha! Sayang na sayang lang, ang pag-ibig mo, laan pa naman ang puso ko sa 'yo... I'd be very surprised if the show didn't get a monster rating.

-national team? who's in? i haven't been watching pba for a long time na (since the redux of the alaska glandslam team). nood tayo nyan, magaya ka lang ok? though wewerts and mga kainan sa gateway.
-i haven't watched a single darna ep. i hope to catch one as soon as i... censor muna, hindi pa sure eh
-i caught the pinoy abroad episode sa taiwan. nice.
-i also caught the part of last night's show na kumanta si manilyn na "sayang na sayang ang pag-ibg..." 1990 pa pala yun! 15 years ago! i'd bet yung barkada nung naka bikini top (alala mo yun jon?) sa splash heard of manilyn reynes.
