The Funniest Palawan Day to Date!

This has gotta be the funniest day ever. Srsly. It’s the gang’s third and last day yet there’s still a lot of LOL moments caught on video. We went to Honda Bay, specifically Snake and Pandan Island where we went snorkeling and modeling. After spoofing Marimar, Baywatch and FHM cover shots, we toured the city again for some last day shopping, food tripping and videoke!

Enjoy guys!

CokskiBlue: One Year (and 37 Days) of Video Blogging

CokskiBlue: One Year (and 37 Days) of Video Blogging

May 25

April 18, 2007 – That was the first day I launched my very first video blog at CokskiBlue which then resided at http://cokskiblue.blogspot.com. I still remember my very unusual layout where my blog “banner” invaded almost half of the screen. With that first look, you’d see that I was trying to do something different – not exactly good on the eyes – but different.

That first vlog spawned unexpected reactions from the first (say, 4?) viewers. Whaddayaknow. They actually liked it. And apparently, the idea – blogging using video as a medium, was relatively new to the Philippine Blogging Community, which back then I didn’t know actually existed. Of course, YouTube already had HappySlip, Komikero, TouchBlue and other great Pinoy video bloggers. But I am very grateful to have found an audience who tuned in week after week, with no high expectations of what I should be doing. They just watched. And had gone with the ride.

It was an overwhelming experience.
