Valentine's Day Gift Ideas

So it's exactly 1 week before Valentine's day and I still dont have a date. ECHOS. As if nagkaroon ever!

Hoy! Mga batang to!!!

The day of hearts is one of the most anticipated day for lovers... and perhaps the most dreaded day for the single and the lonely. (Bitter-bitteran strike #2!) But let's save the latter for another post. Today we shall focus on those who have a special someone they can celebrate the event with.

We (WE?!?!) usually plan an elaborate day. Perhaps start with breakfast/brunch then a trip to the spa, an intimate sosyalan dinner and if maswerte, tuloy sa hotel. (or motel kung cheapangga lang). But I guess the most challenging would be thinking of THE gift. Crucial because it could make or break the whole celebration, kebs sa ibang effort.

So allow me to make some recommendations. Samahan na natin ng cheesy lines as package deal.

1. A different kind of party

With you, I always feel like I am born again!
Yes kakaiba. Di lang eto celebration its a celAbration!!!

Kung gusto mo ng mejo private

2. Special Bath

Let me bathe you with my PRECIOUS love!
Mejo cheap nga lang. Silver not gold!

3. Makeover!

I will always love you...no matter how you look now and even as we grow old KAHIT MAGMUKHANG DRAG QUEEN???

4. Sweet Nothings

Kahit mabulok ako sa kakaantay, andito lang ako...
GREEN!?! Yes, ube talaga yan. YUCK ha!

4. Spa treatment

Because you are worth every penny to me!
Grabe. Masabi lang na below 100 pesos!

5. Personalized item

You will always be safe with me...
SHET ANG CHEESY!!!

well if wala sa budget, I guess the most meaningful gift you can offer...

5. Your HEART!

Buong puso ko ang iaalay sayo!
Twin na, XXL size pa!

Ok namamatay na ako sa ka-cheesy-han! Di naman ako makarelate! CHUICE!!!

Happy Hearts Day guys!

FRESH CATCH: Crazy Little Thing Called Love

The "FRESH CATCH" category is like "KoiBeyondPond Recommends" where I will attempt to suggest things -from movies to style items, music, links etc. Yes, this is an attempt to be a "dictator of taste" ala Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl Episode 12 (UY UPDATED!)

HEH. Explain.

Anyway, it's around two weeks before Valentine's day and there are three ways to prepare for it:

1. Feel the love
2. Makontento sa kilig
2. SULK AND/OR BE FRAGILE!

Third item applies to me every year. Thank God I was born the day before and there is always a reason to stay happy on the 14th. PARINIG.

Anyway, I found this wonderful Thai movie called Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Watching it could either make you fall in love or be fragile depending on your current relationship status.


It's a funny tale of a nobody-girl who falls in love with a campus cutie and so she tries hard to change herself to get noticed. And as she transforms from a dark-skinned geek into a graceful fair lady, she discovers more things about herself and the boy in her life. Simple plot but it had a hilarious treatment...with a little sting in the end.

What to watch out for:

1. Flirting Styles

Para sa di natural na malandi...

2. Makeover Tips

Yes di na uso ang cucumber. Pakwan na for very challenging cases!

3. Amazing Transformation

Which would make everyone exclaim...

Teh, MAY HIMALA!!!!

Though, the girl kinda looks like...

Whatever-happened-to-Ateh-Chynna-Ortaleza. Chuice!

4. Pokwang!

ECHOS LANG!

5. And of course, the ultimate qualification for a nice movie... KERE BOYS

Hmm, pwede na...

Nag-inarte? Well, tingnan natin kung mag-inarte ka pa kay...

Mario Maurer!

He's the guy from Love Of Siam (another popular Thai film). This time he's straight. Aww so adorable! Cellphone charm material! (HEH)

Intrigued much? Watch the trailer NOW!

And if you can't wait to download the torrent file, someone uploaded the whole film on Facebook! So if you are bored on a lazy Sunday, start loading the movie now!
