PBB Teen Plus: Shy And Andi

Having the word “plus” in the Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition is nonsense if there will be no twists from beginning to end of the season. Big Brother never run out of ideas. Correct me if I’m wrong, this is the only PBB season having two house players at the same time and will work as Batman and Robin on their task. Who’s Shy? And who’s Andi?

When Shy joined the teens inside Big Brother house, she entered wearing a mask until last Saturday’s 6th Eviction Night. She removed it in front of all housemates and on national TV. The reason why I thought she looked familiar is that she was the rumored GF of Gerald Anderson, ex-housemate of Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition. I remembered the picture they’ve shown at The Buzz during that season. Shy is really the girl on the picture.

Who’s Andi? She entered the house last night as house player and not as a housemate just like Big Brother told the housemates. She will join Shy to their task to see the real characters of the remaining housemates. I saw the shock in every housemates when Andi (or should it be Andy) was introduced by Shy except for Robi. There’s something in his eyes seeing Andi. No wonder she’s a real beauty, she’s the daughter of veteran actor Mark Gil (Eigenmann) and veteran actress Jacklyn Jose. Andi Eigenmann is now using the name Andi Guck from her mother’s family name.

The Wuds

Punk rock… new wave… what era can you think of? For those who doesn’t know, it’s the 80′s. It just so happen that during those years, I was so active exploring new things in life and updated to the latest bands I can hear of. Last week, I was thinking of local bands during that era, all I can remember was The Dawn. All I can think of were all foreign such as Depeche Mode, Simple Plan, The Cure, REM, When In Rome etc. I didn’t know that at one point in my life, I didn’t support local pinoy band as I do now.

I met Aji Adriano of The Wuds last week. I’m shy that I didn’t know their band considering that they’ve started their band in early 80′s. Aji told me that the band started 25 years ago. I told him, if they’ve got married that time, they could have an adult son/daughter by now. I’m impressed with how they made their group together until now compared to other local bands. The disband of bands we know now do happened when one of the members think of a better career without the other members. Actually, I don’t have respect and doesn’t support those kinds of people. Some of them didn’t go a long way on their career. Am I right or am I right?

The Wuds members are:

Bobby Balingit (lead guitar/vocals), is a unconventional guitar instructor and song-writing workshop facilitator. He is also a painter and divides his time in-between teaching.

Alfred Guevarra (bass/vocals), is a noted tattoo artist and the President of the Philippine Tattoo Arts Guild (PHILTAG), Manila. He sometimes plays the rhythm guitar.

Aji Adriano (drums) is a guitar and drum instuctor. He is also my son’s drum instuctor this summer.

Love Team Inside Pinoy Big Brother House

When Big Brother was introduced in the Philippines, from season one of Pinoy Big Brother, Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition and Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition to present, I’ve noticed that there are always “love teams”.

Staying in the Big Brother house, isolated from the outside world and together with the housemates 24/7 somehow make a special feeling developed among the housemates.

Could it be a strategy? Lets put it this way, if you are in their shoes and you are always nominated to be evicted or think that you are not that popular to your co-housemates, what would be the easy way so that people outside will vote for you so that you will not be evicted?

Most filipinos, whatever age bracket they belong make “kilig” (sorry, I cannot find the right english word for it) when they saw that their favorite housemate shows special attention to a certain housemate. Everything have limitations especially tonight’s episode of Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus.

A scene when Nicole’s mom was talking with Big Brother and said that their family is conservative and requested to talked with Nicole. Another scene when Nicole and her mom are talking regarding Nicole’s special attention with Josef when she already have boyfriend outside. Being a parent myself, I understand her feelings. Its like, “hey, you’re on national TV”. However, Nicole maybe is being true to herself. But the impression will be left with the pinoy televiewers. Nicole even confessed to Beauty that she isn’t used to expressing herself to her parents. Now, I see the point why there should be guardians inside the house. Episode tomorrow is something I don’t wanna miss when Nicole’s mom will be joining them. I saw Nicole’s facial expression, she’s not happy with the idea.

My eldest son who happens to have crush with Nicole is now turned off with her attitude. I hope, the teens will be wise enough to realize that most of the time, the wonderful thing they saw with their co-housemates doesn’t last long when they get out of Big Brother House.

Plus In Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition

The moment when the big plus in Pinoy Big Brother Teen edition was revealed, I don’t intend to post the update anymore. I don’t like the idea of having the parents or guardians inside the house. Does big brother is running out of gimmicks inside the house?

I saw how a father truly loves his son. It touched my heart when Jolas’ father ask for Big Brother’s permission to sleep with his son. He told Kuya how he missed his son very much and reason why he became protective to his son. Every parent is protective but to Jolas’ age? That was because Jolas’ big brother died of leukemia and Jolas almost had leukemia when he was young.

I salute Big Brother for showing the video to Jolas. Parents are sometimes misinterpreted and misunderstood by their children. On the other hand, parents sometimes hide emotions and hardly express themselves. I miss my dad so much.

Tomorrow is the 1st Eviction Night. I vote for Jieriel… to be the first one to get out of the house!
