I'm Not Just another Boy Next Door

Tuesday, December 14, 2010


I'm battling time indeed. Christmas is near and I'm still single. I need to cover that up fast so I don't end up alone the whole year. I don't know but it's nothing like rocket science in this part of the world that it is bad luck. I'm doing my best though and I wish there was boston dating services here so I wouldn't have to go out and spend that much on unnecessary dates. Believe me I've been in a lot of those! I'm trying to spend on more appropriate and productive dates... if there is anything like that!

The weekend was nice though because I got hooked up. This afternoon I confirmed we'd be going out on Saturday. I plan fancy dates. That is the usual thing so I'm going to try something unconventional and different. I probably would end in a concept to look and feel something in a certain way that would not be too elegant and refined. It is a gamble but I'm all for it. I need to go out of the boring and into the unexpected. I haven't been too adventurous in the past and that might have spelled the failed ones. Taking this into this perspective and making my night a little more exciting than the usual might take me places. So you have to wish me luck again this weekend, otherwise I'll be old and alone in the holidays. You wouldn't want that to happen right?!

What would you do if you were in my shoes?!

Benefits Style Salon

Sunday, December 12, 2010



It was a great day for beginnings last Saturday December 11, 2010. I graced the re-launch of BENEFITS Style Salon at Eastwood City. The mood was great and everyone was in a festive mood as they changed the facade of this store from the previous "classy more upscale look" to a "newer, fresher, colorful, accessible and bold skin". I was also in for a treat because they hooked me up for a hair make over. Since I look a little haggard and groggy that day I went in for the ride!

The "BEFORE" look... =)

Yeap that's me! I'm not as good looking as I was before I started this blog but hey you could probably mistake me for some movie star huh?! Ha-ha! They got me into the treatments first and boy those shampoo guys must have been sent from heaven! Your stress and hair problems will be long forgotten since the simple thing includes a soothing massage which I don't often see in usual salons in the metro. I should know because I frequent some of them when the time comes to cut my hair.

You won't be worried because you see this display? They are using Loreal products and if you see other brands there it would be of much high end quality so you are SURE that you are not being cheated unlike other unscrupulous salons would do. I'm sure you see most of them not doing the prep work with the products because they probably using substandard ones. BENEFITS Style Salon makes sure you get what you pay for and more!

All their staff are also trained in Loreal so you get the best cuts, make up styles and service above anything else.


Bloggers getting the Royal Treatment

I wasn't alone in this treat because there are also other bloggers that can attest to the prime service that they do, ask Anton of Pusangkalye.net or Sai of fashionbysai.blogspot.com and Jeman of OrangeMagazineTV and they'll tell you the story! Like this story ain't enough for you huh?! =) Did I forget to mention that you can just pay 199 for a haircut?! Yeah it is that low, no wonder I saw a throng of people outside the salon waiting to get the best service this side of the town. If you are a resident or working for a company inside Eastwood City, you'll get 20 percent off too! Isn't that great!?

You can also get to use their house IPAD units so you won't get bored while waiting for your hair color or treatments to be done. They've also got WIFI which makes this the perfect spot for gadget freaks like me to hangout bar none!

And after the hair make over! Tadaaaaa!

AFTER the haircut... I like it!

Ohh if I can only tell you how much I liked the hair cut. It's edgy and very current, I like how it went with my not so manageable hair which is a problem for me when it gets a little long and curly. In fact I'm surely going back there once it grows out (and probably do a new style). I'll be recommending it to my office mates too since they give out that deal for people who work here. I love it so much!

See? I told you it was good! =) Now here's to another journey for the good looking guy! #NAKANANG! LOL!

Thanks to the guy who did may hair (sorry couldn't recall his name BUT REALLY THANKS!), he's awesome and we had some acquaintances in common. My unruly hair now looks great and I owe these people for that! Make sure you all drop by at their Eastwood branch which is located at the 2nd Floor Fashion Square Bldg. Eastwood Citywalk (side of MANOR Superclub just ride the escalator). Give yourself a treat this Christmas and be pampered with hair and make up professionals from BENEFITS STYLE SALON!

I would also like to thank everyone at Benefits Style Salon specially Sam Escalante for the super awesome hospitality. Your staff and people are really good I must say. Thank you so much for everything and please expect me to be back soon!

Saturday Date Night


It was another grand evening of parties and celebrations. I love it when friends spend their whole month's salaries on booze and food. I was also in the lookout for something more than the celebrations though. I wanted to get hooked up so bad before Christmas so I did so many things that I'd probably regret next year ha-ha! If only I had a chance to meet Norfolk singles it would be a better date night for me too. I assumed the single man's position and went to a different local bar to meet ladies again. I admit this has been gearing to be a habit but what can I do I have a deadline to meet. I got my friends there too so I wasn't alone that time. It was pretty cool we didn't have the same taste in women though... so there is no conflict of interests!

I stood by the bar most of the time and settled to be my own smile machine whenever someone nearby is getting a drink. I kind of helped out the ladies there and bought someone a drink. It wasn't a bad night because I got some numbers now. I am interested on one particular person though and we have been exchanging messages up until 7AM. The hangover is killing me but deep inside I was smiling because I like what I was reading. There will be a date this coming weekend and guess that's it! I'm sure this dating thing wouldn't be a bad thing to do if she likes me that much and I might like her too. I'm not quite sure yet but we'll see when we have more time to talk on Friday. I would do this or get some girls on line. Dating is a little difficult when you don't get someone who lives nearby. You won't be able to spend more time and just spend most on phone calls and exchanging short messages. I'll try my best to get it on with someone soon so wish me luck! I need that obviously!

Are you still single and dating? What are your plans to get that relationship status changed?!

Twitter Wars: @PilyangSweet and @SGeronimo25

I love twitter wars. When celebrities turn on each other and show their true colors. It is somewhat bitter sweet when you both adore them but the backlashes of words are so amusing! Here's the story:

It looks like there was a short exchange of jokes in the rehearsals of ASAP XV. It probably was meant as a joke between the stars Sarah Geronimo and John Pratts because of their (Sarah and Christine) former love interest Rayver Cruz. The bad news is, Christine Reyes found out about it because it was said while Sarah was on the microphone. This made Christine flare up hence this series of tweets.



Maybe after seeing her tweets on this event, their Manager reacts like this:

Which probably means she is on the side of Sarah (Maybe because she earns more hehe)

And their manager says:

Christine Reyes, as outspoken as she has always been answers back their Manager:


And so the twitter wars go on. Make sure you follow @pilyangsweet for more updates. I'm sure she'll tell you all about it! Ha-ha!
