Are you cool?

The word "cool" has become so popular that anyone or anything that is considered good is branded as "cool". One is uncool when one does not go with the flow, when one goes against the norm or when one offends others. You are cool when you do not experience any of the following:

1. Nervousness in front of other people. Being calm or not showing your real feelings can make you cool during nerve-wracking situations.

2. Anger is very uncool, especially when you blow off steam in front of others, that is so uncool. The person you berate may look good on those who witness your outburst and you will come out as the devil's advocate. Avoid this. Be cool even during rough times.

3. Love what you have and who you are. Flaunt what you got. That's cool.

4. Whining or complaining seldom changes things. Just give your best and stop whining.

5. Being uncooperative or apathetic is uncool. You are a part of this universe of humans, so act like you are one. Be helpful.

Hari Ng Negros is set on June 28

Followers of the most prestigious male pageant in this island will surely make that annual trip again to Canlaon on the 28th of this month in order to witness the 6th search for this year's Hari Ng Negros. Twenty five males representing 25 towns and cities of Negros Oriental and Negros Occidental will once again vie for that much-coveted title. Hosting this year's pageant is Hari Ng Negros 2006, Mark Xander Fabillar, host and producer of "At Random", a weekly local TV talk and entertainment show.

"Burst", the fashion show

It was an evening of colors, lights, glitters, smoke, people, loud music, and drinks. "Burst", the fashion show, was a huge success, except for a few loopholes which I don't have to mention here since the good side of the show outweighs its downside. It happened midnight of May 23 at El Camino Blanco and here's proof of the pudding.

Enjoy!

How cool is your summer?

How did you spend or waste your summer? Did you immerse yourself in the pages of your favorite novels? Or did you soak yourself everyday at the beach? Hmmm.....it seems like kids are spending more time at home facing their computers. Thirteen kids spent summer honing their communication skills doing a bit of hosting, debating, singing, dancing, and most of all interacting with kids their own age. The perk is, they get to do all these and show on TV! Isn't that one cool way of using your school break?

black is back

Pop stars in this country have redyed their hair black as opposed to the blonde look many months ago. It is no longer fashionable to wear your hair light. Today the fad is black so now everybody's growing their hair and having it as black as possible.

As to accessories, big or huge earrings are still in. Rings with super-sized stones also come along with the gigantic earrings. Necklaces are still long and big. Wow! I love this fashion!
