I was searching about fuel system parts when I stumbled on an article about American idol and since yesterday was the second to the last performance night, it was one of the anticipated and talk about show. The results of yesterday’s performance night were out earlier. And its Joshua Ledet who walked out just before the American Idol Finale. I was able to watch the performance night on television and I though Joshua would be safe as he sang really well, but then, its the voter’s choice. So, it would be Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips on next week’s AI Finale. Who do you think deserves to be the American Idol 2012?

I opened youtube few minutes ago to search for a video of Elise Testone who was eliminated at American Idol this week but instead a video of Jessica Sanchez singing Dance with my Father on youtube’s top video. Since, I also like her version, I didn’t look for another video and I just decided to share this. Jessica sang it very well, its not as easy as fat-cat but it was really heart felt. I hope you like the song as well. Enjoy.

After 155 days of staying in the Pinoy Big Brother house, the big night has finally come. After 155 days of being away from their loved ones, the big winner has been announced this evening. Garnering around 40% of the total votes, the big winner is Slater Young who is dubbed as the “Hot Engineer of Cebu.” He is the first male PBB big winner in a regular edition. I think he really deserves the big win, just liked what he wished when he entered the house, he wanted to be mature inside the house and after staying inside the big brother house, he was able to show the whole world his leadership qualities. The awarding of the big winner’s prizes marks the end of the PBB Unlimited Season 4, part of his prize is 2 million cash, if he has a girlfriend he could immediately buy her a unique engagement rings and give a very romantic proposal.

Second big placer is Pamu, Kiti kiti Kid ng Batangas, third big placer is Biggel, the Promdihirang Tisoy ng Marinduque, and the fourth big placer is Paco, the Hopeless Romantic ng Gensan. Each of them have their own big prizes as well.

Unlike my brothers who all know how to play the guitar, I don’t play any instruments. I can remember when I was young, I tried learning to play the piano but since I didn’t have formal lessons or nobody was there to teach me, I wasn’t able to learn further. Aside from that, we didn’t have piano at home so I never learned by myself. But one instrument that fascinates me are the ukuleles. It belongs to the guitar family which has only four strings. I like going to youtube to watch people play Ukulele and its music to the ears. I find it entertaining and really amazing seeing people play this small musical instruments. just look at this video while a young boy plays I’m Yours using the Ukulele.

I was on facebook yesterday when I noticed that one of my friends was playing bingo. I didn’t know that facebook has this application and that bingo can already be played online. I didn’t grow up playing bingo so I didn’t find time to search for an online bingo games for me to play on my spare time. The mall is a place where I see people playing bingo, they are able to enjoy playing after doing their own shopping. But I have never tried playing in the mall, I do know how to play it but it’s not a hobby for me but I know someone who would enjoy playing this game.

Upon living in my in-law’s place when I and my husband were newly married I became exposed to bingo. I would see my father-in-law putting numbers to bingo cards and sometimes we would even help him do that. Sometimes, my mother-in-law would sell me bingo cards, we would buy and play it when we are available but most of the time we would let our sister-in-law play for it. I have experienced playing bingo and it was fun, but as it is a game of chance I have not experienced winning a prize. LOL.

The beautiful thing about the bingo that is being held at my in-law’s place is that they are used as fund raisers. Especially, if the town fiesta is near already, the town head would host a bingo game, sell bingo cards at a very affordable price and have attractive prizes. Not only the town people would participate but also other people coming from different places. These people who buy the cards not only help the town have a wonderful fiesta but they also have the chance to win big prizes and of course enjoy playing their favorite game.

I wasn’t able to watch the All Star Barangayan the Finals of Showtime or simply Showtime’s Season Four Grand Finals yesterday due to some personal activities. There are fourteen finalists namely:

Kanlumon Performing Ensemble

Neutron Acrobats

D’Shots

Kingz Gambit

FMD Extreme

Astig Pinoy

Spy

Pinoy HipHop

Racing Chat

Bailes De Luces

Buli Kidz Incredible

Teatro Ambahanon

Prime Machine

UDC

The contestants have different concepts, from contemporary dancing duo to contemporary dancing trio to modern folk dance group. Of course, hiphop groups or the typical dance groups are the concept of the most groups but they all have different twists in their performances. I was curious to know who the grand winner is so I immediately searched for a video of their performance. From the different blogs, I found out that Astig Pinoy won the competition with the final score of 9.933 percent. I have watched a personal video at youtube and I was really impressed with their performance. They are really “astig” with the hiphop dance that they performed and they are really “pinoy” with their tinikling performance. The tinikling routine was really impressive and they even did it blind folded with the jumping rope exhibition. I wish to share the video with you, but I’ll do it once I found a good quality video at youtube.
The wild card winner, UDC, received the Madlang People’s Choice Award, probably because of their “Komang Dance.” I’ve watched their performance on the wild card week and they are really cute, their Komang dance was like a “dance craze.”

Congrats Astig Pinoy! You deserve it! And congrats to UDC also for that unique Komang Dance!
