Oh how I miss Southern Style. It's been 3 years but it seems like yesterday when we first shot the first episode. Let me try to upload some of the episodes here.
 It's really funny now, how I mispronounced "southern" and unknowingly aired it on this episode yikes!! When we aired this episode, me and my team were the happiest,  we just can't believe how we made it happen. We even went to Ana Caguiat's house one the executive producers of this show to watch it with everybody. It's a proud moment worth remembering. My pc is running on windows ice age and I'm still waiting for the rest to upload, for now give this segment a watch and I assure you it will make you a very proud Dabawenyo.:)

Amazing how we came up with this show when most of us knows nothing about TV production. You will see in this segment how amateur the hosts were. However, we were all motivated to make this show a reality. Smile Lee (the guy on the yellow shirt) .


Drew:) we miss you!!


 
I will try upload more episodes in the coming weeks or days. Enjoy and spread the love! Proudly davao made:)

B.o.B. - So Good


Drinking a German beer with a Cuban cigar
In the middle of Paris with a Dominican bar
Great head on her shoulders, she probably studied abroad
She transfered to Harvard, from King's College in march
She says that i'm her favorite
Cause she admires the art of Michelangelo with the flow
Picasso with the bars
She's well put together like a piece by gershwin
Rennaisaince style, tonight is picture perfect
Smile, and pack your bags real good baby
Cause you'll be gone for a while

Girl tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my senorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow

You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la

Suffering from first class cabin fever
Five hour layovers from Norway to Egypt
I'm to the point like the Pyramids of Giza
Still lean to the left like the tower out in pisa
I'm feeling single baby,
I could use a feature
Swagger like ceaser, i'll get you a visa
We can go to italy, and maybe see the coliseum
I'll be Da Vinci if you be my Mona Lisa
Smile, and pack your bags real good baby
Cause you'll be gone for a while

Girl tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my senorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow

You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good

Well I been feeling singular
How about let's make it plural
Spin the globe, whatever it lands that's where we'll go
We'll hit up Europe, yep, and spend some euro
And maybe visit Berlin, the wall's with the murals
This is your month baby
Sign of the virgo
Private reservation, glasses full of merlo
A rose, a burgundy
Travel like turbo
Brush up on your espanol
We'll Barcelona bound
Smile, and pack your bags real good baby
Cause you'll be gone for a while

Girl tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my senorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow

You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la


Here's a fresh track from B.O.B ft. Tayor Swift called Both of  Us, not that I'm in love with B.O.B's songs but it just so happen that the guy released two new tracks and it's on MIXFM's playlist. Be the first to sing along with this hit in the making. 



B.o.B – Both Of Us Lyrics


[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

[B.o.B]
Ever thought about losing it
When your money’s all gone and you lose your whip
You might lose your grip when the landlord tell ya that you due for rent
And the grass so green on the other side
Make a n-gga wanna run staight through the fence
Open up the fridge ’bout 20 times
But you still can’t find no food in it
That’s foolishness
And sometimes I wonder, why we care so much about the way we look, and the way we talk and the way we act and the clothes we bought, how much that cost?
Does it even really matter?
Cause if life is an uphill battle
We all tryna climb up the same ol’ ladder
In the same boat, with the same ol’ battle
Why so shallow? I’m just asking
What’s the pattern for the madness
Everybody ain’t a number one draft pick
Most of us ain’t hollywood actors
But if it’s all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can ball
Do it one time for the underdogs
Sincerely yours, from one of yall

[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

[B.o.B]
I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle
You just wanna live, been everything so low
That you could drown in a b?
That’s why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up
For all the times no one ever spoke for us
To every single time that they play this song
You can say that that’s what Bobby Ray wrote for us
When the tides get too high
And the sea up underneath get so deep
And you feel like you’re just another person
Getting lost in the crowd, way up high in the nosebleed
Uh, because we won’t be near yet, both of us
But we still stand tall with our shoulders up
And even though we always against the odds
These are the things that’ve molded us
And if life hadn’t chosen us
Sometimes I wonder where I woulda wound up
Cause if it was up to me, I’d make a new blueprint
Than build it from the ground up, hey
But if it’s all for one, and one for all
Then maybe one day, we all can ball
Do it one time for the underdogs
From Bobby Ray, to all of y’all

[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us




Leave The Lights On

We're in the dark, it's getting late
I really should go, he's waiting for me
We both know it's not what it seems
We both know it's between the sheets

I know that it's a secret and that I gotta keep it
But I want the lights on, yeah I want the lights on
And I don't wanna run away anymore
Leave the lights on, leave the lights on
Leave the lights on

What would they say, what would they do?
Would it be trouble if they knew?
I'm trying hard to make you see
All that you are is all that I need

I know that it's a secret and that I gotta keep it
But I want the lights on, yeah I want the lights on
And I don't wanna run away anymore
Leave the lights on, leave the lights on

I know that it's a secret and that I gotta keep it
But I want the lights on, yeah I want the lights on
And I don't wanna run away anymore
Leave the lights on, leave the lights on

Let it out, let it out, let it out
Let it out, let it out, let it out

I know that it's a secret and that I gotta keep it
But I want the lights on, yeah I want the lights on
And I don't wanna run away anymore
Leave the lights on, leave the lights on
Leave the lights on

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...

My old rose quest

I love to host weddings, it's something that i can do with eyes shut. But i dread dressing up for it. First, I don't want to spend for it but since I get paid to look good on that special day i have no choice. Second, I'm too lazy to find a dress and lastly I hate formal events. But when i get everything free that's when everything changes lolz. I get a gift certificate from abreeza monthly and for the past months I've been getting gcs from MAGS boutique. For my event last sat. I decided to keep the budget for my dress and use my 1000 pesos gc instead.

The challenge? To dress up for an old rose motif wedding. I fitted the long dress with a grecian goddess in mind. But my wallet screams "pauper"!! That dress costs 1900++!!



 Way off my budget so i opted for the off shoulder ruffle dress:-) 1290++ spent 300 but i'm sure i can earn that amount when i use this on another event! Paired it with my black peep toe pumps and with the belt i made (will post belt DIY soon)
