Celebrating my special day with..."November Babies!"

One of the most celebrated event every year in every corner of the world is one's birthday.
And all of us were very excited to celebrate it with loved ones or most of the times with family and relatives. Yearly, I have been with my family and friends but this year, I had the chance to have a birthday blast together with my co-workers especially those whose also been on the same month...November.
As planned, we will be contributing moneys and that will serve as our source of funding to even share and multiply fun.
After some consultations with most members of "November Babies," we came up with menus ordered via delivery service.
I just sought for my wife's help to personalized our cake.
All 11 birthday buddies including Me scanned our photos and placed them to decorate our cake.
We all got overwhelmed, with our co-workers who joined and greeted us personally.
And that gave us all a smart conclussion that the celebration would be more happier if tgere are more people wishing us a HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

A broadcast experience

The very first interview for broadcast I did was exactly a decade ago...and this was at the hype of the third season of American Idol half Filipino finalist Jasmine Trias.
At the time, I was then a part of an "MOS," but only a few people
knew that I was also working then at ABS-CBN, a popular TV station in the Philippines. I was then giving my insights about Trias' possible chance of bringing home the title.
And I never thought that on the 25th of December 2012, I would be on TV again...literally modeling.
I was seen on Solar Newsday, a newscast anchored by Mai Rodriguez, but it was Pat
Fernandez filling-in for her.
A particular segment which was intended to provide viewers a fashion forecast for the coming of 2013.
It was actually one of my very unforgettable experience...never knew that it would happen on the same Network, former Talk TV now rebranded to 9TV.
Network News anchored by Pia Hontiveros has a story about people who still finds importance on the use of snail mail in sending personal messages to their friends, relatives and loved ones here and abroad.
To make the long story short, I was now a resourced person telling the public about the very essence of it.
I just said in summary..."I have an Uncle in Canada and that he preferred getting snail mail rather than messages sent from emails or other social networking sites. "
In addition, I made mentioned that "...messages sent via mails could be edited. Not unlike messages your hand stroked on paper that has no room for errors for you're writing using your heart and not by just pen alone."
Luckily, my wife and my daughter dropped by at the office and had seen the full story.
My daughter just reacted indifferently upon seeing the part where I used my lips sealing the letter. She was even more suggesting that it would be best if I just glued it.
After that, the director of our newscast along with other co-workers teased me and said... "I'm now like a movie actor!"
