Dance Like Nobody is Watching.

I just want to post this video of mine to start our Monday with a massive and great vibes. This video was recorded backstage during my Tina Turner lip-synch battle. I was amazed of my transformation and I just want to watch myself dancing with that looks.

#PubertyChallenge is not Just a Challenge, It has a Deeper Impact.

Advertisement by Google:

Taking a glance to your old pictures of  your childhood maybe the best subject of laughter with your friends; those awkward pictures wherein you look so much different and awful than today. Some of us, we even tend to hide and never show those pictures to anybody assuming that it will just embarrass you.

Puberty maybe the toughest stage –e.g. rapid development of your physical attributes, dramatic increase of hormones, heavy loads both in school and at home, and personal problems. Indeed, it is a stage of “Make or Break”, are you gonna make it?

Recently, due to the rise of social media in which we can easily share our stories online, #PUBERTYChallenge became trending among netizens. This is a challenge that online people are encouraged to post their before and after photos highlighting their adolescence stage versus their current pictures.  Truly, it was a challenge since it is extremely difficult to brag your most unpleasant photos online and show on how you became visually pleasant as the time goes.

Honestly, #PubertyChallenge means a lot to me. It is a way for me to look back in my past, how I started to dream and how I did the move to reach those things that I dreamt about. And now, I am already 30 years old and when I look at those old pictures, I can see the Jonathan Orbuda – who used to strive. It reminds me that I need to be grateful on what I have and who I am today.

Undeniably, we always complain the difficulties we’re currently experiencing, to the point that we forgot to remember those days we started to build our dreams.  We focus on the negative sides saying “Ang Hirap naman ng Buhay” but if you take a look your old pictures; can you still evaluate yourself today? Where you at today in comparison to your old pictures? Are you really living with difficulties today or you’re just not being grateful. Try to take a look at your old pictures and compare it with your pictures today – do you see any growth and development? If none, then I must say, you have the right to complain and not to be grateful.

Last week, I created  #PubertyChallenge Contest. Below are the photos who took the #PubertyChallenge .

Bringing Back The College Day Memoirs + Meet Me Halfway Cover Song.

Advertisement by Google:

College life is not easy in comparison to High School life. Aside from the numerous projects and expenses, there are also personal problems which may arise unexpectedly and simultaneously. There are moments that we’re about to give up.

Personally, my college days were not that easy but good thing I was able to handle it gracefully. Perhaps, it’s because I have this strong passion and impetuous of reaching my dreams- to finish my degree. It was undeniably tough “YES, IT WAS!”  But despite of those stressful experiences and mind-breaking challenges, I never ever forget how to have fun since personally I really love fun activities.  Since I don’t have enough money during that time to support (dreamed) expensive fun – e.g. going to malls, travel, bar. Then, I spent most of my spare time with my classmates singing at some Karaoke establishments around the University’s vicinity – University of Rizal System, Binangonan Campus.

In fact, right after our lunch, one of my classmates recorded this video while I was singing my favourite song – Meet Me Halfway.  I recovered this video in my old Youtube Channel (which I already deleted because I have my new one), then downloaded, and edited to become more visually pleasant.

Watch the video below.

Good thing, I was able to save a copy of this video for the reason that by watching this – I am able to remember my college days and how it was challenging. I am able to look back where I came from – “My Humble Beginning when I was a dreamer”.  With those entire fracas – I’m very thankful because without those, I maybe weak these days.

Thank you so much for watching and see you in my next blog.

Upclose and Personal with #BiyaheNiJuan Backpackers Club in Bolinao, Pangasinan .

It is very beneficial to travel with friends, office-mates or even with a group of random backpackers. This is due to the fact – the more participants, the cheaper expenses will be. This is the main goal of Biyahe Ni Juan, a backpacker club that highlights of travelling in a shoestring budget. In addition, it is also advisable to travel once in a while and escape the stress from your work and the lifestyle in the urban zone.

BiyaheNiJuan is a recreational-centric group joined by numerous BPO workers with same goals. Their goal is to take a trip the cheapest way possible and to allocate a spare time for each member to travel – as much as possible when schedule permits.

“It is important that you have to spend time for yourself, and by traveling – it can help you recharge and become more positive when you go back to your work” Rambo said, one of the proponents of BiyaheNiJuan.

“In BiyaheNiJuan, we are advocating and persuading BPO Workers and alike that traveling doesn’t need to be expensive” he added.

I joined this lifestyle club because this group is truly inline to what I loved the most – to travel.  The first travel destination was Bolinao, Pangasinan.

Get Someone to Pay the Bill – My Workmate said.

Together with my friends and/or workmates, from our workplace, we headed towards Ortigas , Pasig city – a location where beers are still being offered during daytime, specially to customers who are night crawlers. Yeah, undeniably, if you’re working at night – it is quite difficult to look for an open bar during daytime; but within the heart of Ortigas, you can find it.

Meanwhile, inside the car and on our way to the said bar, we talked a random topic – what to do when you get fired from your job?

Best Bite in Bacolod – The Authentic Bacolod Inasal.

Advertisement by Google:

Aside from its colourful Maskara festival and must-visit tourist spots, Bacolod city is popular for its Bacolod Inasal. In fact, there are numerous restaurants located around the country claiming to have an authentic Bacolod Inasal as part of their menu. But eating Bacolod Inasal,  that is being bought and eaten right in the vicinity of Bacolod City gives such feeling of genuineness.

Bacolod Inasal has a great taste that will surely make you consider of tasting once you visit this place. It has a tender and juicy flavour which is perfect partner for rice. I would also advise you to try this as pulutan with cold beer. Without a doubt, Bacolod Inasal can be eaten without a sauce because of its savoury flavour.

Inasal is a Visayan word “asal” which means to grill or roast. Inasal means roasted or grilled which is commonly used as Inasal Baboy and Manok or simply Lechon.  Inasal varies in terms of taste depending in the origin of the recipe. With Bacolod Inasal, it has distinctive taste that you can easily distinguish when you eat a roasted chicken that are coming from different location. I must say that whoever created the secret recipe of Bacolod Inasal – he/she made

The Best Foundation of Becoming a Content Creator is Knowledge.

For you to become an expert, you have to start from basic. That’s what I did when I attended my first ever Youtube Workshop. I’ve been doing several videos for quite sometimes without considering the small details that might affect negatively towards the quality of my creation. By participating such workshop – I’m now meticulous when it comes to some details that needs to be done and what not.

The workshop highlights the basic camera lighting and production. The topic is very helpful especially to youtubers like who has challenges – e.g. not having time, production equipment is too expensive, general production knowledge, not sure which equipment to buy and which software to use.

During the workshop, I met a lot of content creators like Mikey Bustos and Luigi Pacheco. In addition, it was also my first time to handle an expensive camera that is mostly being used in a large film making. Seeing such thing made me more enthusiastic on achieving my dream.

Watch the video below.

The Feeling of Being Recognized and Valued.

Advertisement by Google:

Nothing is powerful than a positive reinforcement. Indeed, being recognized and valued as an individual is such a wonderful mania that you can give to a person. It will truly give him/her a motivation to keep going, no matter what.

As a Youtube content creator, I must admit that there are times that I’m considering of giving up my channel and not to produce any content anymore. There’s only one reason –scarcity of resources.

To upload a video, there are lots of things happened behind it. It takes a full effort before having quality content. However, if I’m gonna give up on this; I’ll have no outlet anymore to showcase my artistry. My passion of sharing my content is very achievable when I’ll go online .Indeed; Youtube platform has the capacity to do it for me.

As a youtuber, I am a “ONE MAN-TEAM” – I do my script, concept, lights, filming, editing and uploading the final output. No wonder, a small youtuber like me might reach to the point of giving up. And to avoid that eminence, you need a support system that will help you to bring back the heat of your passion. Moreover, I had hard time looking for a support group that will rescue me as my friends that surround me can’t even understand the concept of “YOUTUBING”. They all just watch Youtube but never in their minds had they asked how the life of a youtuber looks like- behind the camera.

Good thing, Youtube Philippines values their creator and they brought the Youtube SPACE here in PH. Fortunately, I got a slot to film inside the said SPACE. At first, I thought that filming in Youtube Space Manila is a “One Man-Team” style but I was surprised because I was given my own production team – light men, cameraman and cinematographer – exclusively for my slot. I even borrowed money from my friend to buy a new DSLR camera just for that event; yet without my awareness, there were cameras in the studio that can be use for free. Foods are available all day long for all the people inside the space as well.


Without a doubt, I felt being valued that time. Since I was a kid, I’ve been dreaming of doing such fad –hearing the queue of “Lights! Camera! Action!”. And I can’t still imagine that I did it with the help of Youtube.  That wasn’t just the content that we successfully created matters the most, but it was the experience of meeting again with my long-time dance partner after six years and executing our dance move in front of the camera with a dramatic lights facing towards us. It was undeniably a glorifying bliss for a dreamer like me.

Personally, I would like to give thanks to Youtube Space MNL for bringing back the feeling of heat towards your Pinoy Creators’ passion. Truly, it affects me positively -to hold tight on what I dreamt about.

The Taste of Mango Flavoured Pizza in Province of Guimaras.

Advertisement by Google:

When I visited the province of Guimaras , a lot of residents here advised me to try their pride – the sweetest mango in the whole world ; it can only be found in this province and they export it in various countries.  I’ve heard it a lot; not just hearsay but I read numerous travel blogs that are highlighting this famous mango. But “nothing-to-few” online writers wrote about this Mango Flavoured Pizza; indeed, it can only be found as well in this province.

Honestly, I just discovered it when I personally get there. It can be bought at the store named “The Pitstop Restaurant, ” which is located along the Guimaras Circumferencial Road of the municipality of Jordan. It is my first time to hear, see and taste such innovative pizza.


Obviously, since mango is the primary product of the province. Entrepreneurs took advantage of the abundance of such fruit; they innovate the usual pizza into a mango-flavored pizza that when you heard it – it will trigger your curiosity of buying and get the answer of “HOW   DOES IT TASTE LIKE?”



Personally, nothing spectacular when it comes to the crust. The crust is tender especially if it is still hot. But when it comes to the topping which is mango itself, I rather preferred eating the mango separately as a fruit or as a shake rather than eating it on the top of pizza crust. I can taste the sourness from it, which is obviously normal for a mango when it went through a process of cooking. Unlike with the process of “Mango Jam”, though it undergone with the heat; sugar is added as part of the process to maintain the sweetness.


Honestly, I don’t like mango on the crust. I rather chose mango shake with pizza instead. But that was just my preference because my friends enjoyed the Guimaras Pizza. In fact, they bought a lot as a pasalubong way back home. Well. It’s a matter of preference. But I strongly suggest considering it buying and personally taste it.

If you already taste it, please leave your comments below. Maybe I just have a weird taste bud and didn’t enjoy the pizza.

[Tech Vlog] MyPhone Digital TV Dangle is Not Working in Samsung Galaxy A5.

Advertisement by Google:

I was very excited to buy this smallest phone accessory which will turn your smart phone into a digital TV.  I watched this in one of my subscribed Youtubers; from then I consider buying one for my Samsung A5 since I am no longer using it daily.

Myphone Digital TV Dangle is amounting to 499PHP which is affordable enough for a dangle. Imagine, you’ll no longer need a TV, no internet connection needed and all you just have to do is attach the dangle in your phone, install the application for streaming and in an instant – you’ll have a TV right in your phone streaming digitally.

September 5, 2017, William Pombo and I dropped by at SM Cubao to look for a MyPhone Store and buy such accessory. The saleslady tried two items and we even went to the nearest door so that we can search for the signal. However, after multiple attempts, the dangle wasn’t working in my Samsung Galaxy A5. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring the OTG connection for my Samsung S8 Plus so that I can try it as well.

Watch my VLOG below:

Truly, it is important to bring your phone right at the Myphone Store before purchasing the dangle and have it tested first, because not all phones are compatible to this dangle regardless if it is high-end or low-end phones.  Maybe next time, I’ll consider bringing my OTG for my S8 Plus when I drop by at the store because I’m really curious of this dangle and its quality. In addition to that, it is just amounting to PHP499.

Consider also watching the videos below about MYPHONE DIGITAL TV DANGLE.

I you have bought already this dangle; please leave your comments below. How was it? Is it worth buying for?  Do you guys want me to buy this as well or it is just a waste of money?
