Hi My Sweetheart

I have a friend at work who enjoys watching Koreanovela, Japanese drama and Taiwanese drama. She even read articles about the artist. I was able to watch some of these through local channel but now I have no time for it. She give me a link to watch "Hi My Sweetheart" in You Tube and she also let me borrow a dvd for it. I just finished episode 1. I find it very light and relaxing to watch. It makes me smile and laugh while watching it. The story is about a very rich nerd or dork and they describe him. He is the only son and he grew up being protected by his eldest sister. His sister was not able to get married because of him but she was over protective that he grew up alone with no friends, not knowing how the outside world. At the age of 20 he decided to move out and study college abroad and that's where changes in his life takes place.

I am really touched and amazed with his performance. I was not able to watch other contestant but watching what he did makes me think he deserves it. Congrats Joseph, you're the man!

Are You the Next Big Star Winners

I just watched the finals of Are You the Next Big Star in GMA7. The finalists are Francheska Farr, Jay Perillo, Camille Cortez, Alex Santos, Zyrene Parsad and Geoff Taylor.

The winners, one male and one female, will each get 1million pesos, a condo unit from Avida, a management contract from GMA Artist Center, Recording contract from GMA Records and they added P100,000 worth of clothes from Danny Tan and Pepsi Herrera.

The finals have 3 rounds. The first 2 rounds is a duet and afterwards 2 will be eliminated. Judges are Pops Fernandez, Danny Tan, Mon Faustino, Annie Quintos and Vernie Varga.

During the first round Danny Tan chose Francheska (sang "I Finally Find Someone") as the best performer among the girls and Alex (sang "Huling El Bimbo") was chosen by Vernie Varga. On the second round Alex (sang "I'll be there for You) was chosen again and for the girls this time its Camille (sang "Since You've Been Gone). After those 2 rounds sadly Jay and Zyrene were eliminated.

For the finale Alex sings "Awit ng Kabataan" and Geoff sings "Kahit Kailan." Both of them are really good looking but I find Alex more appealing. Anyway this is a singing contest so voice is much prefer than looks. While for the girls Camille sings "Dirty Diana" and Francheska sings "Queen of the Night."

Congratulations!!! Francheska and Geoff for being the Next Big Star.
