Marimar, my sempai and a La Sallian

The promotion for Marimar (Marian Rivera) has been overwhelming. GMA 7 has been flagging that Marian is the network's next big star. To a few, they somehow came up with a conclusion that maybe Angel Locsin was anticipating the tide that Marian will be the highlight and not her. I have even observed those 'few' commented, "Mag-aaral kasi yan si Angel magsayaw para di siya matabunan. Tingnan mo si Marian." ^^;;

As of press time, I've heard there was an interview/letter from Angel's side that they will not renew the contract to GMA.

Yeah, this post is showbiz-y.
But I can't help to comment. Marian Rivera and I went to the same Alma Mater, same course yet different level. She was 2 years ahead of me, if I remember it right.

When she first had her tv commercial of SkinWhite, one of my professor asked before she started the class. "Has anyone seen the SkinWhite tvc?"
Our class replied in unison, "Marian!"

Before she was a tv personality.
One time, Marian and I were at the same powder/comfort room. We were facing the same mirror and when you see her, you can't help but compare your skin/complexion to her.
Especially if you're tanned and pimple-prone like me. huhu.. Yep, her skin's clear and snow white.

Seeing Marian developed on-screen, makes me feel proud that she's my sempai.
So here I am, I'd like everyone to support Marimar- Pinoy ver.
My friends and I were joking if Michael V. would be cosplaying Corazon in the Pinoy ver. But we found out that he's the voice of Fulgoso.
I'm looking forward the Pinoy ver. would be fun and interesting.

From a certified celeb, let's talk about a wannabe. hehe.. ME!
I'm serious!
There's a model search for a well-known store.
I was planning to join for fun and luck.
The contest mentioned that for their weekly winners, one will get 10k.
The previous weekly winners, uhm.. I think if you have seen them, you would be prompt to try too.
I don't care if I make it to the semis. I'd be happy to receive 10k already.

I was supposed to join this week. Then I was surprised when suddenly this week's winners (July 23-28), photos of some established celebs have showed up as entries.
Tho of course, those celebs currently are not active on-screen as of now. Nor do they have ads at Edsa. I don't want to drop names. Clue: One of them is from ABS/ have ASAPmania stints.

I was like protesting to my friend when we saw those familiar faces.
I'm disappointed because now it would be tougher to compete for the 10k.

I was also wondering why would their managers let them compete in the 1st place?
Can't they think of another strategy to boost up the current cold careers of their talents? -sigh- Goodbye 10k.

Hm.. time to look for another way to earn money.
Damn that thief. It ruined my budget up to the end of the month.
