Komikero Video Channel

Gerry Alanguilan launches his Komikero Video Channel at http://bidjo.blogspot.com 🙂

I like the name he chose: BIDJO

It sounds like the Tagalog word for “video”, yet it’s spelled colloquially. It’s as if I could hear him say the word, along with a very Pinoy accent. A similar example would be: Dibidi-dibidi.

I like watching Gerry’s videos, because you can clearly see how much he enjoys creating all these videos. Looks like he and Christine Gambito (HappySlip) share similar thoughts on what it takes to succeed in Pinoy Vlogging.

If you’re curious about HappySlip’s inspirational message to Pinoy vloggers, check out Cokskiblue Meets HapplySlip!

Philippines 2010 Elections

Janette Toral writes about important issues regarding the coming Philippines 2010 Elections, and invites you to share your thoughts on what is important to you.

I wish I could participate meaningfully. Anyway, off the top of my head (though not necessarily in order of importance):

  • Alternative Energy
  • Housing
  • Education
  • Healthcare

Ack. Political blogging? Am feeling awkward. 😉

May Gitago Kong Pagbati

Here’s another Visayan song, again thanks to Robert Petines and his friends in the early 1960s…

May Gitago Kong Pagbati (I Have A Secret Feeling)

May gitago kong pagbati
Alang ‘day gayod kanimo
Ang kahadlok ray nagalabi
Nga balibaran mo

Daw sayun ang pagpahayag
Kadako sa huna-huna
Mga hanaw lang ang pulong ko
Sa atubangan mo

Sa akong mga damgo
Gikaloy-an mo ako
Tinuod ba kini
Nga ako gihigugma mo?

Kung kining akong pagbati
Pagalumsan sa kanunay
Magpailub lang intawon ako
Kay pagbuot sa palad ko

And here’s the very loose translation (native speakers, please help me out…)

I have a secret feeling towards you (with emphasis), Inday. I am so afraid that you will reject me.

While it may seem easy for me to explain/speak out, the thought looms large in my mind how powerless/weak (hanaw) my words (pulong ko) are when spoken in front (atubangan) of you.

In my dreams, you pity me (gikaloy-an). Is it true that you love me?

If my feelings for you will always (kanunay) be drowned (pagalumsan), then I will just accept (magpailub) how pitiable (intawon) I am, because that is the will/destiny (pagbuot) of my fate (palad).

Nabilanggo Ako

Got hold of some of the lyrics of Nabilanggo Ako, a Visayan song Roberto Petines (from Manila) learned in the early 60s from drinking buddies in the Visayas.

Nabilanggo Ako (I Was Imprisoned)

Nabilanggo ako sa gugma mo
Tul-tuli ako ngadto sa dalan
Nga wala’y kalisdanan.

Init ug ulan gi-antos ko kining tanan
Wa mo tagda kay wa ka man nahigugma

Mag-unsa ako kung wala na ikaw?
Kinsa pa ma’y akong sampitan? Ay…

Nakita ko ang imong larawan sa kalangitan
Ug balikon ko sa pag-ingon nga unungan

The song is sung from the point of view of a man smitten by love. He is smitten so badly, that he feels imprisoned and wishes that someone would point the way to the easy road (one without difficulty).

The man endures the heat and the rain, but his love doesn’t even notice because she is not in love with him.

He asks what will he do if she is no longer around. Who else will he talk to? Ay…

He sees her face in the heavens, and he wants to keep saying that he and the woman will be united.

(If you something lost in the translation [since I am not Bisaya], please help me out. Thanks!)

Living Together Blog

The Living Together Blog tells of the journey of married couple Althea and Armand Tan. Thea hails from Iloilo, while Armand was born in Cambodia.

Exciting, right? 🙂

Check out their photo gallery, where you’ll be amazed with the quality of their photos, or where you’ll be envious of the many places they’ve traveled to. Must. Travel. Soon.

Thea is interested in internet marketing and making money online, so don’t be surprised if you find a number of e-marketing gems in some of her posts. I just hope she continues blogging even after they move from the Philippines to the US.

Chova N Chorvalyn

Chova N Chorvalyn (http://chovanchorvalyn.wordpress.com) is a funny blog written in Filipino / Tagalog by Lawrence Fernandez.

Catch a glimpse of Philippine culture through the eyes of someone interested in Philippine politics, television and showbiz.

Speaking of politics and history, seven years ago from January 17 – 20, we experienced EDSA Dos. There was no People Power celebration/commemoration this year for various political reasons.

I wonder if Lawrence will make a post about this.

I also wonder what Chova N Chorvalyn means…

Anyway, for a dose of Filipino humor, check out Chova N Chorvalyn at WordPress.com

Jerry’s Nikon Online Shop

So the digital photography and SLR bug has bitten you, and you don’t quite relish going to Quiapo to snag cameras at bargain prices.

What’s a photo buff to do? Head on over to Jerry’s Nikon Online Shop at
http://www.jerry.ph/nikon/

(I wonder why the webmaster sends you to another place if you forget to put the “www” in the address. Go ahead, try it. Or better yet, don’t waste your time. Just type the www already.)

Now I need to research on Nikon AF-S DV 18-135 Zoom Lens, and the Nikkor 18-200VR Zoom.

(I hope Harold’s Photography Club has a fair share of members who just use a point-and-click camera.)
