Note: This post is written in Tagalog-English para mas lalo nating ma-appreciate ang Pasko sa Pilipinas. Ang mga post na ito ay kuha kung saan-saang lugar bunga ng paglalakwatsa at makakating paa ng may akda.  Kung handaan ang pag-uusapan sa Kapaskuhan, hindi mawawala sa ating hapag-kainan ang spaghetti! Sa mga Pinoy na may sinusunod na pamahiin, mas naghahanda sila ng spaghetti sa Pasko kesa sa Bagong Taon. Paniwala ng iba, dahil buhol-buhol ang noodles ng spaghetti, magiging magulo raw ang buhay mo kung kakain ka ng pansit o spaghetti sa New Year! That's why mas mabuti raw na ihanda na lamang ang spaghetti at pansit tuwing Pasko para safe sa pamahiin sa Bagong Taon. And what do you know? Ang dami-dami palang promo ngayon ng spaghetti brand nang bumisita ako sa Shopwise Araneta Center sa Cubao kamakailan lamang. Dahil pambara ang pinag-uusapan natin dito, isama na rin natin ng kaunti ang mga panulak: softdrinks! Heto na! Heto na! Heto na! - ROBERT REQUINTINA Wow! Ya...

They say our destiny or fate is written in the stars! So POP NEWS PHILIPPINES talked to Asia's most trusted Feng Shui Master Hanz Cua to help us determine the fate of these candidates through Chinese astrology which is the system of computing one's destiny based on birthday and birth season. For our astrology reading, we requested Cua to read the stars of five candidates of the 2018 Miss Universe 2018 pageant for the preliminaries (Dec. 13) and the finale (Dec. 17). These candidates are: Miss Philippines Catriona Gray, Miss Spain Angela Ponce, Miss South Africa Tamaryn Green, Miss Thailand Sophida Kanchanarin, and Miss USA Sarah Rose Summers. We don't want to disappoint the pageant fans of these five front-runners. That's why POP NEWS PHILIPPINES chose not reveal which reading was assigned to the candidate. Last year, days before the Miss Universe contest, Hanz predicted that Miss South Africa Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters would win the prestigious title. The f...

Note: This post is written in Tagalog-English para mas lalo nating ma-appreciate ang Pasko sa Pilipinas. Ang mga post na ito ay kuha kung saan-saang lugar bunga ng paglalakwatsa at makakating paa ng may akda.  Iba pa rin ang Paskong Pilipino dahil sa Pilipinas lang yata ang may pinakamahabang preparasyon at selebrasyon sa nalalapit na pagsilang ni Hesus. Kapapasok pa lamang ng "ber" months, kahit hindi pa December, maririnig mo na ang mga awiting Pamasko sa radyo at nag-uumpisa nang magkaroon ng palamuti ang mga pasyalan at ibang establishment. Minsan, mararamdaman mo rin ito sa lamig ng simoy ng hangin. Without further ado, heto na ang ilan sa mga Christmas photos na aking nahalaw na siguradong ninyong kagigiliwan. Let's start sa Araneta Center in Cubao, Quezon City! Ready! Get Set! Go! - ROBERT REQUINTINA Wow! Ang ganda! Para silang naglalakad sa ibabaw ng gift wrapper or colored candy cane! So liwanag! Para ka na ring namamasyal sa Miami, Florida o...
