Day in the Life of Candy
Justin Fever!
I still can't believe that Justin Timberlake is coming to the Philippines! He's coming to my home! I've been a fan ever since his 'NSync days and I can't wait to be able to watch him live again. I was lucky enough to see one of his concerts in New Jersey in 2006—right after he released the Future Sex Love Sounds album. I watched with my older sister, and we were screaming our lungs out the whole time. It was an awesome show! JT is really one of the best performers I've ever seen live. I love how you can see that he's just having fun on stage. Timbaland also came out during that concert—he and JT make a great duo! Here's a video I took of a cool mix they did of "Promiscuous Girl" and "Sexy Back." Please excuse my shaky hand... read more
What does it mean to be special?
Dear Candy girls, On March 11-12, 2010, athletes from all over the Philippines trooped to the Philsports Arena to participate in the National Athletics Games. But these are no ordinary athletes—they're special! Being "special" means having an intellectual disability, such as Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), autism, and Down syndrome (DS). The Special Olympics is a worldwide organization with over three million registered athletes from 170 countries. Their mission is to show the world that intellectually disabled persons are not inferior—that they are indeed special individuals who deserve our love and acceptance. I witnessed this for myself when I attended the Special Olympics National Games last week.... read more
Let's Take It Back to the Old School
Last Friday, my college org, the UP StreetDance Club celebrated 10 years of dance through Street Fuzion X: Decade, Vision, Dance. I remember being a wide-eyed freshman sitting in the audience of the first Street Fuzion ever. We were required to attend because I was part of the StreetDance PE class under Jerome Dimalanta, who incidentally was the moderator of The Club. I was completely blown away. I remembered thinking, I have to join this org. I have to. A year later, I was dancing Nelly's "Ride Wit' Me" onstage, proud to call myself a member of the UP StreetDance Club. I have a lot of good memories with the org. I developed my marketing skills when I became part of the team tasked to look for sponsors for the concert. I upped my dancing—learned... read more

War of the Words
Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me. Or so they say. But in this age of text messaging and Internet blogging, gossiping—that once-harmless pastime enjoyed by miserly spinsters on lazy afternoons over cups of tea—has ridden the wave of the future and taken a turn for the worse. Hushed speculations that used to be kept within the confines of sets of friends are now widely publicized fodder for everyone. And in this viral age, you don’t have to be a celebrity to be gossiped about on the Internet. It could happen to anyone, as it happened to me. The worst thing about it is that it is so public. When before, the gossipee could live her whole life not knowing that everyone thought she was a (insert derogatory... read more
Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow
I’ve had long(ish) hair for as long as I can remember. Whether layered or one-length or updated with bangs, it’s always been below my shoulder. My long hair is simply part of who I am. So you can imagine my hesitation when I visited one of the top stylists in the city and he said, unflinchingly, “Sweetie, it’s time for a change.” I tried to put up a fight, I really did. But he’s one of those people who wouldn’t take no for an answer. Seemingly fed up with my thinly-veiled misgivings, he finally said he’d leave me alone for a minute to think about it. The one-two punch was delivered when his assistant seized this opportunity to pull me aside and said, “Darling, he’s not just any stylist. He’s an artiste (emphasis on... read more
Deconstructing the Enemy
I admit. I've done it. I've demonized someone that I didn't take the chance to get to know. All because I was jealous. Guilty as charged. It's just that, the first sight of these pretty little things flipping their perfect little hair in the direction of your boyfriend is sure to annoy you. Once introduced, they will grate on your nerves with their lilting laughs and coy innuendo. Already aggravated, any further interaction only results in them pushing all your buttons. Or at least, seeming to do so. Instinctively, you will set off on a warpath to obliterate her. I've realized, though, that the key to keeping your relationship hassle- and jealousy-free is not to destroy the girl who threatens you. What you need to do is make an about-face... read more
