You'll love LOVE, SIMON

Monday, April 16, 2018






Based on an internationallly successful novel, I joined a couple of friends to watch Love, Simon. It's an LGBT themed film, more geared towards discovering himself, some sort of a little... coming out story. 





An ordinary guy, born from normal parents, normal friends, who drink coffee, watch movies and watch their carbs. It's a perfectly normal life - albeit being a little obsessed with the gardener next door, but that's another story. 

Yeah he's queer, not out there, more like in the closet. He found another person in the same predicament, same thoughts as he has - so he took the chance to connect, and they did. The getting to know stage, the blackmailing, everything falling apart. 






They go through teenage stuff, milennial - get drunk and lose it. In the end he wants to find who he is... but honestly I like his Whitney Houston moment I think every gay guy has that diva who represents him - his is fun. I also like how he got to tell his friends about his preferencr - but not how it went with the others.

I don't want to spoil things, but YES this film is quite interesting to watch with friends and family. Prolly 4/5 cows because I enjoyed it. Not really for kids, but more for PG 13 at least. You'll love how it ends. 




It will be out on May 9 under 20th Century Fox.

Thank You




My Dad passed away this Tuesday, April 3, he was 70.


I know am still hurting, not fully recovered yet. I don't know what will happen after this but I am optimistic things (even though will not be the same) hopefully will be better for us. We are taking care of Mom, as we always have been doing.

I am just writing this post to thank everyone who have in their own way, showed their condolences while we are still grieving. It may have not been less stressful, less heavy, but know that we are extremely thankful to everyone who have helped us during this time. Please do know that I have read all the comments, private messages, but I'm still contemplating how to answer most of them because the old people are telling me not to say "thank you" even if I really am thankful.

Kidding aside, my heartfelt thanks to all the bloggers and PR Executives who went to the wake of my Dad. It really kept me on top of my toes to see you just being there. You know who you are.

For those who sent flowers, who sent help and even tons of food, THANK YOU

Synergy88's Digital Stories, Management via TAMD

Thursday, April 12, 2018






I've written aboout Synergy 88 last year and have high regards with this game studio - they are currently based in my hometown Quezon City, Philippines. 

Aside from making easy work with Microsoft Studio's Gears of War 4, CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and the others, here they go with another feather to their hat creating Synnergy 88's newest group the Talent Acquisition and Management Division (TAMD) who's thrust is to tell all things Filipino with contents created solely for platforms Facebook and Youtube.












Ms. Jackie Chua says "We started only creating art for video games and found an even bigger calling, so now we create mobile games of our own. We tackled VR and AR, motion capture and things related to this industry, now we want to tell the story of the Filipino people. Today we're signing up Jacq Monteverde, Opi Eusebio and girl group DigiSquad to be part of our roster." 














Head of the Division Ms Abigail Aguilar says "TAMD of Synergy88 has now been established and thank you for coming. We are backed by the largest mobile developer in the Philippines and we are now maximizing our resources to put in front the Filipino story."

Opi says "This is my first time to have people to manage me, it's overwhelming, and now I won't be taken advantage of. I trust them."

Jacq couldn't contain her excitement and says "Now I am really excited because they are really hands on - and much like family."


DigiGirls Milagring adds "We have been independent for the longest time and even if we have been handled by managers before, this will be bigger. Can't wait to work with them soon!"


For those who don't know, Jacq and Opi have been doing roles, modeling, indie projects whilst the girl group DigiSquad has done different appearances in gaming events and conventions which of late includes ESGS2017. Synnergy 88 is the largest gaming studio in the country, and with these ladies and gents in their helm, they will be able to tell interesting stories worldwide. You may visit synergy88digital.com and follow their social media accounts for more information about their projects. If you want to book their talents, you may get in touch with Darwin De Leon via darwin.deleon@synergy88digital.com +63 917 317 49 20 and +63 2 623 49 20.

This looks so exciting!
