Meet LA Aguinaldo

I know I have so many backlogs but I just had an instant feeling of blogging this right now. So… pardonne moi. Haha. It's already 4am that's why I'll just make a quick and succinct post. Bear with me. ;)

Many of us (or all of us, perhaps) have already watched the latest tvc of Nescafe –where the guy was about to kiss the girl but didn’t actually do it, hence, opted to describe it in details instead. I have to admit it is indeed a market leader. It was so wittily made. I mean, who wouldn’t fall for that?

However, when I first saw it, the first thing that caught my attention wasn’t the tvc itself— it’s the familiar face of LA Aguinaldo.

I saw him at the Candy Style Awards 2012 (happened a month ago but will blog it this week, I KNOW) as one of the Candy Cuties. He was actually the friskiest among them. He never seemed tired— or maybe he was but he’s pretty good at making it imperceptible. And honestly, among all of those Candy Cuties I had a picture with, he’s the only one whom I had down pat. Legit. Plus, he’s so approachable; be it in person or online. I believe, in next to no time, he will hit the big time in the biz.

So watch out ladies! This enthralling green archer will surely render you in awe when you meet him by chance! He is, indeed, an epitome of good looks with striking personality. :)

WATCH HIS TVC HERE! :)

Go on and try to bring me down, but I will be rising from the ground.

When Maddi Jane announced that she’s going to release a cover of Demi Lovato’s “Skyscraper”, I got totally excited. I really love watching her YouTube covers, and I’m pretty sure anyone who knows her feels the same way. I can’t believe that I’m watching this cover of hers just now. SMH.  

 This song is kind of special to me, in a way that, it’s one of the songs which accompanied me when I hit rock bottom. Songs from Demi Lovato, Taylor Swift, Boyz II Men, Nsync, and Justin Timberlake all in one playlist – yep, my iTunes can attest to that. That playlist still exists, by the way. The songs I sorted in that list are just too poignant and pleasant to the ears to be removed. I got to admit, though, that I can’t help but get a bit emotional until now when I listen to these songs. There are times in which I would like to feel alone, listen to songs like these, and summon up the shortcomings that I’ve been through. It’s somewhat inspiring because as I recapture those, I also conjure up how I’ve surmount all of them. 

Anyway, so this cover of “Skyscraper” completely rendered me in awe. Maddi Jane is just so pretty; she’s like an angel singing her heart out. I feel so dumbfounded, like I’m being hypnotized. I don’t know if it’s just me or she’s just way too good especially for her age. Her version is exceptional that I had to rape the replay button. Without a doubt, she depicts a full-package artist who can surely make it even bigger in the future.
