How many people did experience
Hearing a big no answer?
How many times been rejected
Perhaps, not lesser than my fingers.

Well, we all do have rejections in life and perhaps most of us had a full list of them. So where and when did I had that big NO answer? It started two years after high school. For teenagers, the greatest achievement during that time, besides higher grades, are the big YES of girls. It means they are agreeing to enter into a relationship with you and boys do get the right for a kiss or an embrace. Lucky boys!

There's one girl whom I considered first as my friend and then later on decided to court her. Hoping to get that friendship on a next level. Gladly, the courting was accepted but to have her say yes was a torment. At first I thought it was a terrible mistake to move that relationship that far but hey I started it already and there's no turning back.

So the days started to count and I think I've courted her for quite some time already and I think it went more than a year. I know it's quite long for these generation but hey that's how it goes during my time! She was simple, cute, sexy with nice straight hair. I'm sure I had so many competition with her and I don't mind having competition as long as we just court it well.

During those days, my family we're not rich and the only time I get to have extra money is when I save excess from my daily allowance. So, if I want to court I need to save up and be creative enough. Since I'm an artist and loves crafty things I showered this girl with creative poems like this...


And not only that I also tried to be creative and think out of the box by painting something for this lovely lady which sometimes comes with a love note. There were also a time that I tried to write my love notes on a shell, circling around till it reach the tip and one time I created a few love notes on a defective microfloppy disk. Here's a sample of the painting I've drawn.


It was more than a year of torment. Waiting for that specific word from her. I didn't gave her any fancy things or any big Stuffed Toys like this as a gift....

Fortunately this is the biggest stuffed toy that I can find.   Hugging it and making a big face as well.

My paintings given to her are not big as this mural...

It's me posing beside the biggest wall mural along EDSA near Magallanes MRT Station. Hopefully this is the biggest wall mural.

but one thing is for sure I did created an impression that my intention is true.

So then the reckoning day has come! It was summer, exactly May 15, 1999 around 2:00 PM she gave her answer... it was a big and boldly 100% NO! That's what I have heard!

It was hot during that time but I felt I was soaked into a drum of water with chunks of ice. I was cold! Then she grabbed my hand, hold it tight and continued “No, you're not wrong about how I feel for you!” My heart pumps and boosted like a rocket! It was a bliss!

A friendship that levelled up into a relationship!

The biggest card that I've ever created and given to my very best friend, my ex-girlfriend, and my wife.  We were friends before we became lovers.   The card says "A Window of Friendship... Always Open For You."

She's now my wife but the friendship still remains and we celebrate that friendship as we enjoys every minute of our life together.

The country’s biggest reality TV show “The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition” comes to an exciting finish when the Fab Five and other eliminated contestants come together for a final weigh-in that will determine who among Angela, Art, Hazel, Larry, and Raffy will lose the highest weight percentage since the start of the show and be declared the very first Pinoy Biggest Loser at the Grand Finale this October 8 (Sat) at the Ynares Stadium in Pasig.




Armed with the knowledge gained during their four-month stay in the Biggest Loser camp, the Bigating Pinoys continue their journey in the real world and undergo rigorous weight loss regimen without the help of trainers Chinggay Andrada and Jim Saret.

Through the weeks, viewers have seen how the reality show has transformed the contestants physically, mentally, and emotionally. Some have visibly lost weight, while others have gained more confidence. As they work towards the finals, the remaining Fab Five have their own strategies to win.


While sweethearts Hazel and Raffy try hard to work out twice a day, Art and Angela make sure they get enough sleep and have a balanced diet.

“All these years, I have carried so much burden, pain, humiliation, anger, and sadness. So every lost pound was like an excess baggage thrown away and a symbolism of the new me,” bar owner Art said.

By zooming in on the lives of overweight people and the negative impact of obesity on health, the program and its contestants have taught viewers how to adopt a healthy lifestyle and that losing weight can be achieved by exercising and eating the right food.

Hazel even considers joining the competition her second life, saying that it “unraveled the Hazel that has long been suppressed.” Though she admits that the whole world does not only revolve around losing weight, the Bigating Pinoys have proven that any obstacle can be overcome as long as one has the will and determination to reach his or her goal.

“There are times you gain weight instead of losing weight. You should exert more effort. Though there are times you fail, you should carry on and not give up," she said.

The two other contestants affirmed how the show has transformed their lives. Sporting a new and healthier physique, Larry plans to return to the police force. On the other hand, Raffy has changed his outlook in life. He used to make excuses that stood between him and his weight goal but he now realizes that change must start with oneself.

“You don’t need to be a contestant in 'Biggest Loser' to lose weight. You only need yourself,” he said.

While the transformation of the Fab Five is evident, only one of them will be declared the first Pinoy Biggest Loser and take home P1 million, a newly furnished condominium unit from DCMI Homes, a Vespa scooter, a 40" Sony Bravia Internet TV, Whirlpool appliances and a lifetime Fitness First membership.

The second placer will get P500,000, a Vespa scooter, Whirlpool appliances and one year Fitness First membership. On the other hand, the third placer will take home P300,000, a Vespa scooter, Fujidenzo Home Appliances, and one year Fitness First membership.

Not to be outdone are eliminated contestants Alan, Andy, Eboy, Edden, Eric, JM, Joy, Leigh, Ryan, and Winwin who will also battle at the grand finale weigh-in. The one who will lose the highest percentage of their initial weight will be proclaimed the At-Home Winner and will get P200,000 and one year Fitness First membership. Who will emerge as the first ever Pinoy Biggest Loser? Catch the “Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition Wellness Fair and Grand Finale” on October 8 (Saturday) at the Ynares Stadium in Pasig, with host Sharon Cuneta, game master Derek Ramsay, and trainers Chinggay Andrada and Jim Saret.
