ANNE CURTIS RIDES THE MRT


Yesterday, Tuesday, April 17, 2012, TV host and actress Anne Curtis was in a hurry to catch the live telecast of “It’s Showtime” that she decided to take the MRT again. This was her third time to take the said public transportation.

Some photos of Anne while inside the MRT. Anne Curtis happily pose with fellow passengers. She also seated with fellow passengers.
The first time Anne rode the MRT was on July 5, 2011. The actress was then rushing to watch the concert of Kylie Minogue at the Araneta Coliseum. Coming from the airport and stuck in traffic, she felt she would not be able to catch up with the concert if she stayed in the car.
Immediately, Anne tweeted her first MRT experience, asking her followers on Twitter: “Hulaan nyo kung nasaan ako para makahabol kay #Kylie? :p,"
The message came with her photo that was taken inside MRT. 

Then she posted a series of tweets. 

“I'm in the girls area! They're all nice! Swerte daw ako at hindi masyado siksikan! :)”

“Don't worry guys! I'm with my angel Maryann! And mababait lahat ng girls! D magulo! Picture picture taking lang at chikahan!”

“I like the fact that there's a ladies and men's section! Thumbs up!”

In the end, Anne felt she made the right move.

“I can see the traffic on Edsa from here! I made the right decision! :),” she said.

On August 2, 2011, Anne again rode an MRT, this time to avoid tremendous traffic jam as typhoon Kabayan was wreaking havoc in Manila. She was then with her younger sister Jasmine Curtis Smith. She was trying to beat time as she would be late for her hosting stint on “Showtime.”

Excitedly, Anne tweeted about her second MRT experience.

“MRT take 2 with @jascurtissmith! We're near na!!!! Showtime wait for us!!!”

This was followed by another tweet, “I think I should be the ambassador for public transportation na! Haha. I love how fast the MRT is! Can you get a card for it na pwede mag-load? Like an oyster or myki card?”

The actress lauded her younger sister’s attitude in riding a public transit.

“Thanks to my beautiful baby @jascurtissmith for being game to jump out of the car, duck under the railings along Santolan, run up the flooded stairs with the rain pouring down as hard as and catch the MRT with me! Her sneakers and socks are drenched but I haven't heard a simple complaint!”                                                                                   

                                 
  


RUFFA GUTIERREZ, GABBY CONCEPCION AND POKWANG TOPBILLS THE MOMMY RETURNS


How far would you fight for your family? Beyond the grave? Betrayal can be a hard thing to swallow. Being betrayed by the very person you call your husband is something you will take to the grave. And that's exactly what Pokwang's character does after her life crashes to a halt and re-marry right after Pokwang's character in the movie died.

“The Mommy Returns” is a special Mother’s Day movie offering by regal Films which is set to be released on May 9. Starring Ruffa Gutierrez, Pokwang and Gabby Concepcion with Gloria Diaz, Ervic Vijandre, Kiray Celis, Gerald Pesigan, and Jillian Ward.
“THE MOMMY RETURNS” is a family comedy-horror movie about a mother, Ruby (POKWANG), who dies right on the day of her 25th wedding anniversary with gorgeous husband, William (GABBY CONCEPCION). With her untimely death, she is temporarily trapped in PURGA (short for Purgatory) with its guardian, Dyoga (JOHN LAPUS, ang diyosa ng purga) and the pesky Manny, the chicken pet of San Pedro.

Enter CATHERINE (RUFFA GUTTIEREZ) – a younger, fresher, and much, much prettier woman who comes into the life of William. When she threatens to take Ruby’s place as mother to her three beloved children (KIRAY, GERALD PESIGAN and JILLIAN WARD), purgatory breaks loose as Ruby escapes back to earth as a ghost to scare and drive Catherine out of the family she left behind!

What follows is a riot of scary antics and tactics that will prove that “hell hath no fury like a dead woman,” especially if she is a mother who can’t leave her children behind!

This year’s Regal Films’ laugh-til-you-cry Mother’s Day offering is directed by JOEL LAMANGAN from a screenplay by Senedy H. Que. It opens nationwide on May 9, 2012.

PHILHEALTH CONTRIBUTION TO HIKE UP


Bad news:-( Philhealth will hike up members contribution effective July 2012.

Voluntary members who use to pay Php 100 peso per month will now have to pay Php 200 a month. That is 100% increase!

Individually paying members who belong to the informal sector of the society and indigents, will be paying P2,400 annually starting July 1, 2012. This is intended to raise funds for the expansion of PhilHealth benefit packages.

But you have an option to advance the payment for your contribution up to (2) two years so you'll pay only Php 1,200 annually.

Binibining Pilipinas 2012 Winners


Congratulations to the new set of Binibining Pilipinas winners who will represent the country in different international beauty contests abroad. Binibining Pilipinas coronation night was held at the Smart Araneta Coliseum last Sunday, April 15, 2012.
Janine Tugonon (No. 18) bested 29 other candidates and was hailed as the Bb. Pilipinas-Universe 2012. She will be representing the country in this year's Ms. Universe contest in Florida, USA. Janine Tugonon is a Pharmacy graduate of University Sto.Tomas and works as a clinical specialist.
Winning answer

Janine who placed first runner-up during Bb. Pilipinas 2011 proved that joining the pageant for the second time's a charm.

“Sobrang happy ako and thankful ako kay Lord. Joining wasn’t a brief decision, sobrang pinag-usapan namin ito within the family. Naisip ko noon, “Lord, bahala ka na. I surrender, andito ako for a reason and I know I’m here for a reason,” Janine said in an interview after the pageant.
Her winning answer reflected her belief as a modern Filipina.

“I believe women have the right to choose between what they want. Just go for what God wants you to do. Between the two, whatever it is, you must do your purpose in this world. Just have a child-like faith and mature obedience, and everything will go smooth,” Janine said in the question and answer portion when asked about women foregoing a happy family life for a successful career.


 Bb. Pilipinas-Universe Janine Tugonon
Nicole Schmitz (No. 8) won Bb. Pilipinas-International
