Let's Vote For Charice!!!

It was the first time a Filipino artist originated from Philippines was nominated at 2012 Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Award. Also the first time to have a Best Asian Act Category. Charice is competing with Wonder Girls from Korea, Yuna from Malaysia and Agnes Monica from Indonesia. Both Charice and Wonder Girls were able to penetrate Billboard Top Chart. As of the other 2 singers, i haven't heard them made it big yet in Hollywood. Agnes Monica was reportedly made a duet with Michael Bolton in his soon be released album. Only Charice made it BIG so far. Being able to performed on Ellen DeGeneres Show, Oprah Winfrey Show and some Morning TV Shows in the US. Also, Charice has an upcoming Hollywood movie with some famous Hollywood Stars like Salma Hayek which will be shown in few months and i'm obviously excited for it! So Goodluck to her and i won't stop voting non-stop. To join the madness, please click HERE to vote!

Charice Hairstyles

My Top 1 and my forever favorite picture of Charice. She looks like a baby doll here. Super gorgeous!

 

I love this hairstyle too. I wish i could have a picture of myself flaunting the same hairstyle like this someday. Very simple yet pretty. 

  

When she's a bit younger and a bit skinnier. The hair rocks!

Just the common hairstyle. I love it when she colors her hair. She's blessed to have a natural gorgeous hair.

Her new hairstyle for 2012. Very short and punky. So anime! But i like it :D

SMART Way Of Stealing Money

My uncle is pissed with Smart for stealing his load which he suppose to buy a new game. He called the customer service and the person said that when he gets a text offer, he should reply NO or else P15 or P30 will be deducted automatically from his load even if he deleted it.  PFFFF! Very smart of stealing money indeed. The fact that there's nothing important on the text they are sending, why it cost too much. It should be deducted only when the user replied YES. If there's no reply, it means NO. Imagine they deduct P30 for 1 million users, it can cost a total of P30 million!!! Not everyone will bother to call the customer service to ask why the LOAD was gone, especially the elderly ones. Seriously, SMART sucks. Well i used to be a SMART user but i switched to Globe and i'm happy with the service. I told my uncle to switch to Globe or else he is making SMART more richer for stealing his money!

Philippine Customs Unreasonable Tax Charges

I think Philippines is the only country in the world who is overcharging customs tax. I was expecting a package to arrive within 2 weeks but it's already been 1 month and i didn't get a notice from Taguig Post Office. I started to get worried coz i was advised that i will get the package in just 10 days. I called the Pasay Central Post office and i was given another # to call for package tracking. A lady answered and i was asked some details and was told to call the next day. The lady asked me to get a pen and a paper and jot down what she dictated. It's a letter to Taguig postman stating that my package is ok to release. I wrote it down in a clean blank band paper. I bring an id with me and some pesos. I went to the post office with my uncle. When we got there, i showed the handwritten letter to the postman. He was busy doing something so i waited for few minutes. I looked around and i saw a familiar box. He asked me if i saw my package already and i said yes. He read the letter and created a parcel notice and i was told to go to the cashier to pay P40. When i came back, my uncle was to talking to the customs in another table. I seated and talk to the guy. He gave me papers about the rules and regulations of the Bureau of Customs. I started to feel something fishy. That's the first time ever happened to me coz i used to get my package there once or 2x a year but the postman will just open the package and it's done, no charges or whatsoever. Then the guy started to make a computation based on the value declared by my sender. Omgg to my shocked, i don't understand why they declared it 80 euros. I don't know what to think at that time but i'm starting to panic. Then i saw the tax i have to pay. It's a staggering P2200 pesos. I wanna faint!!! 80 euros is like P4500. It means the tax cost like 50% of the declared *shocked* Whoever made that kind of rules should be burned to hell! Most especially the items i received were just late Christmas gifts and not for commercial purposes. The custom guy reasoned out why the tax is so expensive is because they want to reach a target in revenue. What the fuck!!! Why do they have to extort money from us??? When i said that the tax is too much, he gave a discount and made it P1870. I wasn't able to get the package coz i only have P200 with me. I told the postman that i will just let my uncle pick up the package in the afternoon and i will make an authorization letter. He said there's no need. Also he suggested that he will talk to the custom guy. We can just give him P500 to be able to release the package, without receipt. OK, so the money will go to their pockets of course but it's better than paying P2200 pfff!
