The Journey. It’s Mine.

Well, I am torn between David Cook and Michael Johns. Oh my, tough choice.

Michael Johns has maturity that shows in his singing style as opposed to the playful ‘cockiness’ of David Cook (simply because he is a bit younger in age and is single). But man, they’re both hot. Sizzling.

[I bet Paula Abdul can’t decide on which to take home! Ha ha ha.]

Obvious ba? Yeah, I do watch American Idol being shown at Star World. Susme, ano naman katapat sa ABS? Wheel of Fortune ni Kris at TV Patrol! Hmp.

Sorry…but Ramielle Malubay’s performance is deteriorating. Carly Smithson is waAAAay too cool!

Grabe. Gabby Concepcion is back in Philippine Show Business.

Ok…he looks older (sana maturer din!) and bulkier, but I guess…more handsome than ever?

It’s not the looks though that draws me to Gabby. It ’s that voice. And those lips! Ha ha ha.

(Hala! Wag kayong magagalit…he he he!)

From tonight’s news, he said that that his first two days here is very emotional. Mixed emotions! What with his daughters - left and right - sprouting like mushrooms?! Susme.
I wonder how he feels watching TV here, with Sharon in all the product commercials. He he.

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! It is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
(Sonnet 116)

These has been immortalized so many times. In theaters, in the movies, even on TV.

However, before there was the movie Shakespeare In Love, there was the TV series called Beauty and The Beast. No, not the one from Disney! Remember? The one that starred Linda Hamilton and Ron Pearlman?

Anyways, I once bought a cassette tape that includes collection of song and poems from this TV series.

BUT, I do not really know where that tape is now. He he. All I remember is that, Ron Pearlman’s voice is something one cannot easily forget.

Ha ha ha. I know what you - my old friend(s) - is(are) going to say : “Hindi ka pa rin nagbabago, Glo!”

Yeah, that’s me. Some things just never change.

We left Bohol early morning yesterday. Too early in fact. I got up at 4:30 am and soon after I woke Raine up. 5:15 am, we left BBC.

We arrived at the Tagbilaran airport at barely 6 am. Raine was in his pajamas. He he.

We were already here (LB friend’s house) by lunch time yesterday. This morning I am still wasted. I even didn’t wake up when the alarm went of. My legs are still painful. The muscles I mean and not my knees as I was expecting.

This afternoon is just the first of the many visits I planned to do.

I woke up this morning and found this everywhere: Heath Ledger Found Dead in NYC.

From the Washington Post:

Heath Ledger, the talented 28-year-old actor who gravitated toward dark, brooding roles that defied his leading-man looks, was found dead Tuesday in a Manhattan apartment, face-down and naked at the foot of his bed with prescription sleeping pills nearby, police said.

There was no obvious indication that the Australian-born Ledger had committed suicide, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said.

Ledger had an appointment for a massage at the SoHo apartment that is believed to be the home of the “Brokeback Mountain” actor, Browne said. The massage therapist and a housekeeper found his naked body in the bed at about 3:30 p.m. They tried to revive him, but he was already dead.

So sad and tragic!

Remember movies like The Patriot, A Knight’s Tale and the most talked about Brokeback Mountain? He was fabulous in all those.

Sayang.

[Update: Starked NY has some first hand photos from outside Heath Ledger’s death scene.]

I’ve been meaning to mention this last week but totally forgot. The photos I saw from The Hunky Blog reminded me.

Last week (January 17), Sylvester Stallone guested at the Late Show with David Letterman to promote the new movie Rambo 4, while his buddy Bruce Willis accompanied him but joined the show’s band on vocals and harmonica. Bruce Willis joined the band and stole the whole show. David Letterman even said that Bruce should join his band every night.
