Hello Geralddicts!

StarStruck returns after 2 years.

I am sad that Marky Cielo, Douglas Quijano and Khryss Adalia are no longer with us, but it’s good to have this show back.

There are also a lot of rules now which I hope won’t confuse people.

Will this mean the return of Pinoy Rickey full time? Abangan.

We have recently heard a lot of inspiring stories of random individuals and groups that have come together to help Filipinos from all walks of life in times of great need. Indeed, it has touched our hearts to know that in these trying times, Filipinos can come together with one voice and with one spirit.

With so many winning acts that are done selflessly in the country this year, Medicol Advance would like to thank and pay tribute to these people who have gone out of their way to help other people and communities.

From October 12 to November 6, 2009, we invite everyone to nominate individuals or groups of individuals that have truly exemplified selfless winning acts in 2009. All you have to do is visit Medicol Advance’s facebook page and share the inspiring story of a person/group you wish to nominate.

Each week, for FOUR (4) weeks, Medicol Advance will donate P10,000 worth of grocery and personal care items plus P10,000 worth of Medicol Advance to the beneficiary/community of the nominee’s choice. The nominator will also be given gift certificates, which they can also use to reach out to help other people in need.

This is Medicol Advance’s own little way of paying it forward by recognizing and helping other people who may want to reach out to those who are in need but do not have the resources to do so.

This is also just the first of Medicol Advance’s upcoming efforts to pay tribute to Selfless Winners of our country today.

Log-on to Facebook and search for: Medicol Advance’s Selfless Winning Acts Page to join and read the full mechanics (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Medicol-Advance-Selfless-Winning-Acts/161140630840?ref=ts)

SOME DEFINITIONS

Nominator – A nominator is any Filipino individual, 18 years old of age that would like to nominate a person or a group who has recently done any selfless winning acts in 2009

Nominated – A nominated person or group could be any Filipino individual/s who have recently exhibited selfless acts to help/save other people in need. ie. “I nominate Juan dela Cruz from Marikina City for saving a mother and child stranded on top of a roof during a recent typhoon”

Beneficiary – A beneficiary could be any individual, family, school, community or organization in the Philippines that the Nominated would want Medicol Advance to donate grocery and medicine goods to

Facebook’s “Like” Function – All types of posts in Facebook have thumbs up and thumbs down signs underneath it. The thumbs up sign means that any Facebook user can flag the post as something that they personally “Like” which is similar to the concept of a Vote. Facebook then tracks every person who “Likes” a post and counts the total number of “Likes” a post has in real-time. The “Like” function will be the main basis of the advocacy’s weekly top FIVE (5) stories wherein the stories with the highest number of “Likes” will be our top FIVE (5) stories

This is terrible news! So sad.

So I went to Central Park today to watch the shooting of Vilma Santos’ comeback movie with Luis Manzano and John Lloyd Cruz. I really wanted to meet Lloydy again, but I was busy with work and American Idol, and he left early. But I did see the last scenes of Ate Vi and Lucky of the day.

Heading back home, I took a picture of Ate Vi while she was walking to the next location, and I told her that I posted her picture on my blog. She said: “Maganda ba yung nakasulat?” Then I said, yes, I wrote that she was “a living legend”. Then she laughed.

I’m so starstruck — I think I’m a fan for life now. Ate Vi for President!

I met John Lloyd Cruz earlier today courtesy of my friend Raymond Lee. He is here in New York City filming a gay-themed movie with Lucky Manzano and Vilma Santos for Star Cinema. I chatted with him for a bit, and now I feel that John and I are BFFs. Hahaha. He’s a really nice guy! Hopefully, I will get to meet him again in the next few days!

One month later, nabuhay ang Pinoy Rickey. lawl

I don’t know if I will be able to post regularly again, but here’s Gerald Santos on SOP
