Yes, they are very controversial. The Gucci Gang was born when an Australian national, Brian Shane Gorrell exposed their dirty little secrets. Brian is the Australian blogger who accussed his boyfriend, DJ Montano of swindling him of $70,000 and DJ is a member of the Gucci Gang.

This incident raised a lot questions, doubts and even controversy between Australia and Philippine libel laws.

Just yesterday, I revisited Brian’s blog hoping to read more more dirty secrets from this controversial Manila socialites…

And Brian did not disappointment me at all, I found all juicy stuff and a more… What a great way to end my day!

Wisdom teeth are the third molars and usually appear between the ages of 16 and 25. They are commonly extracted when they affect other teeth—this impaction is colloquially known as “coming in sideways.” 

Why is this really painful? Whoever discovered this, I hate you. I’m kiddin…

If this goes on until tomorrow, Kibo say goodbye to your wisdom tooth because your going to the dentist for sure… Now, I’m scared. Not tooth extraction please.  Hopefully taking some meds will cure the ache err pain.

to gym or not to gym?

An everyday question that I always asked to myself.

I think I am fat. No, I am getting chubbier. Huhu.

What to do? Exercise? Diet?
Exercise + Diet = that is the best way to lose weight and be healthy

Lately I have been conditioning my mind that I should eat right, lose weight and go to the gym. Waaa, it’s hard at first. Yay! I am on my 3rd week on going to the gym and finally I have my exercise program – toning. I would really try hard not to miss my gym schedule to be able to see some good results.

I can’t wait…

Anyway, its around 1:57AM right now I just finished my oDesk task which is entering captchas for a client. $1.50 per hour not bad for a very simple data entry task right? Sometimes it is fun and most of the time boring… Tsk tsk tsk. But its fine with me as long as I earn extra.

I need to go now and sleep. I have to be up early tomorrow for work.
first Monday of July = company meeting = might be boring
