Joy givers - Becky Nights season 3

"It was back in July 2011 when I downloaded a Becky Night Podcast. The feeling was mixed as I didn’t understand what the show was all about. If I remember correctly, I downloaded 4 episodes and listened to them before I would go to sleep. The humor and open minded theme of the show gave me a refreshing thing to listen to. It was new to me and I know that I would be hooked." -  These were the words that I wrote when I first talked about Becky Nights. And now, I'm talking about the same thing again.

An entertaining Podcast that talks about almost anything and gives laughter to anyone who listens. Hosted by (L-R) Matt Gozun, Jake Galvez, Divine Lee and Buern Rodriguez, they made this show into a lifestyle for all fans.

Moving forward from what the show is all about, I guess it is great to talk about the people that made the show of what it is.  I don't know much of them nor know them personally but I think they are blog worthy. I don't want to sound like a stalker but I think this blog would give it that impression. But just to make it clear, I am not a stalker. You can call me a Fan but I'm surely not a stalker. 

The Creator - Jake Galvez

Becky Nights host and creator, Jake Galvez. He is a professional Make-up Artist and at the same time a teacher.



The show was created by Jake Galvez, a young and very talented make-up artist and teacher. He opens the show with spirit and enthusiasm, and I am sure that the listeners would agree with me. Supported by his fans: Jakesters and the Jakey-wakeys, Jake creates a very cozy atmosphere with his laugh and accommodating way of treating guests and listeners.

He is very warm, loquacious and a very good host. With him, more and more laughs will come to all of its avid listeners, Jakesters, Jakey-wakeys, Teen-jakes and new fans alike. 


The Stylist - Matt Gozun

Becky Nights host and fashionista, Matt Gozun. He is a professional Fashion and Celebrity Stylist.
As the resident mestizo in the gang, Matt owns the crown for being the all-time crush of the world. He is very straight-forward in his hosting and is very honest in giving opinions. He is known for his fearless questions and very sexy nipples. The Mattchupas, Matthons and Matt-tildas are his most avid fans.

Matt radiates his sexiness and charm through confidence, spirit and of course, being fashionable. 

Inhale fashion, exhale style.


The Mother of Pabati - Buern Rodriguez

Becky Nights host and greeting-goddess, Buern Rodriguez. He is a professional Hair Stylist and teacher at a certain school of cosmetology.
Before the show goes on with the episode's topic, Buern greets everyone with his "Pabati". The celebrated hair stylist and host greets avid followers from the tweets that they make. He is very humble, funny and equally witty with his hosts. With his mispronounced words and crazy humor, Buern gives the show a very human feel. 

Buern also created MYLA, a familiar character to the show's avid listeners. He is also being followed by a good fan base namely: Buerners, Buern-Angels and the Myle-witters.

The New Life - April 26, 2012 - Dubai, UAE

I had to work the night before my birthday so I basically welcomed my day in the office. It was not that gigantic of a celebration as I don't like big gatherings. Besides, I didn't have much of the financial aspect to throw a large party for the small number of people I know.

So, ayun, trabaho pa rin na parang walang ganap. But then, may GANAP nung umuwi na ako sa flat kasi yung pamilya ko dito sa Dubai, naghanda ng surprise. And in fairness, I was surprised at na touched pa ako sa effort. Imagine, they went out in the middle of the night just to buy a cake, some party favours and decorated the flat pah! Effort kung effort ang mga otao! :)

Thats the family I have dito sa Dubai. Do you see how the three of us connect? Parang tanga lang noh? ANG SAYA! :p

Here I am! With my cake, party hats and some balloons! Kakatuwa talaga ang umagang iyon!


Then, nagdinner kami sa Red Shrimp Restaurant na malapit lang sa amin, sa Burjuman Centre. It was our second time to eat here pero this time, may karaoke nights na sila! I was excited for the Karaoke Night pero we didn't have the chance to get hold of the microphone at all. Pero ok lang yun, hindi din kasi kami nagpractice for our numbers (kung nakapag-rason lang noh?! CHOS!).

The place was nice, cozy and very private. Maganda talaga at sakto lang siya sa bulsa. Yung nakakatuwa pah eh Kabayan at Bisaya pa talaga yung nag-serve sa amin. Ang galing dibah? Hindi na kami nahirapan sa pag-order at pagtanung about sa Menu nila! Keri lang!

Ang ganda ng Menu nila noh? Parang tabloid lang eh. Give na natin yung creativity sa kanila!

Heto naman ako. Naninigas sa gutom! Halata sa pes ang pagka-PG noh? Kawawa! :P

Ito naman yung dinning stations nila sa al fresco. Ang ganda dibah? parang nasa house lang noh?

Yung peg ng place, parang fish port siya or pier for fishing vessels kaya may salbabida. FYI: walang pool dito o dagat!
AT ITO PAH! Ang cute ng place mat nila noh? Nakaka-bagets talaga ang cartoons! Kaso di ko sila knowing pero keber! HAHA

Yung pagkain naman nila mostly is seafood. Although there is no specific na cuisine, crustaceans yung specialty nila dito. Ang masamang balita, allergic ako sa ganitong food pero since trip ko ito, wala nang basagan ok? I just took some meds after ng ganap namin dito.

Ito yung na-isipan naming i-order kasi hindi na naman bet yung ibang nasa Menu nila. In fairness naman, sakto lang sa bulsa at sa tiyan namin lahat ito.

This is the Grilled Chicken Fillet. It comes with with spiced french fries at naka-soak sa barbeque sauce. NOM-NOM-NOM!

Ito naman yung Seafood Platter nila. It has Calamares, Pandan Shrimps, Fish fillet, and Seafood Rolls. May dips din itong Aoli at Sweet and Chili. This order is good for 3 persons.

This is the soup that we ordered. Hindi ko nakuha yung name nito pero GIVE ko ito as pambungad sa lafang sessions dito. It's sour and spicy at the same time kasi. Bet ito ng mga mahilig sa Thai cuisine.
At ito naman ang talagang PAK sa gabing ito! After dinning, we had a complimentary desert - Pan Cake! It's like a roll of ice cream in pan cake topped with almonds and choco-caramel syrup. Masarap siya pero di ko bet yung early melting time niya! HAHAHA - you just have to eat it ASAP! :P

 This is my first birthday outside of the country at malayo talaga sa dating kingdom na kinalakhan ko. Of course I got homesick pero I am also thankful kasi may family din ako dito. I am very thankful kasi yung FB ko ay mapuno ng pagmamahal, yung twitter ko naman ang nagkaroon ng buhay at ang birthday ko naging memorable! To God na laging nandyan sa aking tabi all the time at to my family and friends who have been there for their support, SUPER THANK YOU! Napasaya ninyung lahat ang birthday ko and I am looking forward for more birthdays with all of you!

a good life

 
People know me as the happy, optimistic and an ever energetic person. My friends would consider me as the life of the party, pala-tawa and maingay in other words. I never ran out of stories to tell and humor to share. I think it is just me. I don't know how to pretend but I am civilized.

gutom na ako---- i can't smile now! :x

MALAKI akong tao!!!! LOL

I grew up facing a good number of challenges and I think it made me who I now now. For me, life is all about the smiles that you made, gave and shared which makes it worth while. Hindi naman siguro bawal if you would share your smile right? I mean, wala namang bayad yun if it comes from me and logically, libre naman talaga yun! :p

SMILE AND THE WORLD WILL SMILE AT YOU! (sure yan!)
Meron din naman akong SERIOUS na side. It's just that I don't show it that much kasi kapag serious ako, I'm DEAD SERIOUS talaga. Pwede mong sabihing, DEAN-STRICT ako, parang Pricipal lang o kaya ay Military General. That is the reason why I don't show my Serious side often. Pero I have to admit, I like myself when I am serious. 

this is the serious me--- Pilit na pilit noh?! LOL :P



Last year, I celebrated my birthday with a lot of help from my family and friends. We gave our own share, spared some time, bought some drinks (tequila is my favorite- FYI) and got a great party. A small party pero I know na I had fun.

ANG EBIDENSYA! (this week was last year pah-2011)

 My family have been through rough, very rough and crazy times. These moments made me who I am now and I am very thankful of it. It was not easy to go through pero kung hindi dahil sa mga ganap na yun, I will not be the person that I am now.

ANG TARAY NG MGA HAIR DO!!!!!!!! LOOOL! (this picture was edited by my younger sister)

Ngayung 24 years old na ako dito sa mundo, masasabi kong alam ko na kung sino ako at kung anu ang mission ko from God. Mahirap ang buhay pero sure ako na He won't give me anything na hindi ko kaya. At heto pa ang isang bagay na sure ako, sa pagmamahal ng family ko at sa suporta ng mga friends ko, may bagay ba na hindi ko kaya? OF COURSE WALA! I-add mo pa ang LOVE ni God for me, NAKU! WINNER NAH AKO!

So, to all those who have greeted me, wished the best for me, and were a blessing to my life: isang malaking THANK YOU and matatanggap ninyo from me! WITH THAT, YOU DESERVE A DANCE! Happy Birthday to me and may we all be blessed from the one above all the days of our lives!

ME @ 24 - April 26, 2012

Is this the end?

Ive always dreamt to have someone who is proud of me; who understands why i am like this; a person that brings the best in me and accepts ...
