Checkpoint? Or Something Else?

Last March 14, 2008, in an unsuspecting afternoon, Ma and I decided to go shopping for groceries at SM Molino – which is just 10 minutes away. But these minutes turned into hours, at least for most people along Molino road, as the PNP put up a “checkpoint” for vehicles on their way to Manila or Alabang. This was the same day as the Anti-Arroyo Youth Rally held by different universities at Liwasang Bonifacio at the height of the ZTE Deal Scandal.  What a (non)coincidence.

Watch as one supposed-to-be-usual checkpoint turn into something else.

POSTER BEFORE THE RALLY:

WHAT CAVITENOS MISSED THAT DAY:

Thanks Bikoy for the pics!

CokskiBlue in a Coffee Shop

Hi guys, I’m back! After a month of hiatus, here is a new video for everyone!

This is actually for Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. This week, they will be launching a new project for all you coffee and tea-lovers out there so watch out for it.

Let me also introduce to you my three bestfriends in the video:

Jet Caballes – my brother
Aris Comilang – high school and college buddy
Jhossa Baes – the future superstar

Enjoy! Please leave your comments.

This makes me sooo proud. Hold your horses! This is Jet, my brother, when he joined the most recent, and prestigious(?) UP Miss Engineering 2007! Who knew Catwoman could pull off Papaya and Marimar? Watch and see for yourself!

50 years of doing anything is a very long time; 50 years of marriage is just plain remarkable.

My grandparents, Lolo Peping and Lola Deny just celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary last November 20, 2007 at the Kamayan Restaurant, EDSA. It was a milestone that inspired everyone – our family and friends – who witnessed their relationship’s love, strength and growth through the years.

Now, let me share with everyone my grandfolks’ first vlog and hear their most heart-warming messages for each other; Also watch out by the end of the video – the family’s Golden Anniversary celebration accompanied by my cousin, Peachy‘s new song – “Lullabye”.

Here are part of the speeches that they personally wrote:

Lola Deny

Actually, I love to talk to people, especially with friends, relatives and acquaintances, but sad to say, I’m a poor speaker because I get tongue tied whenever I face an audience. But today is a very special day and although I find it hard and difficult to find words to express my emotions after 50 years, I know I have to say what I feel to this wonderful, handsome, old man – my husband.

Dong, I would like to thank you for sticking and being with me for 50 years. I know I have my faults and shortcomings but you’ve been very patient and understanding. And through the years, you have given me all the love and care a husband could give to a wife.

We had our difficult times, trials, financial problems, illnesses, and worst of all, the loss of our beloved son, Abel. It caused me so much pain and misery but I still consider myself blessed because I have you as my husband whom I consider the greatest gift God has given to me.

Thank you for the happy times and for everything and most of all, I thank God for giving me a wonderful and loving husband.

Lolo Peping

Good evening. First of all, I would like to thank you all, our guests, friends, and relatives for coming and sharing with us this special day – our 50th anniversary.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to tell you a part of our romance episode. I still remember that time when I set my eyes on a lovely, tall, dainty and sweet-smelling campus girl; I was so attracted to her that I decided to get to know her well. But it was not an easy task because she was very elusive. And back then, she had bodyguards assigned by my very strict father-in-law who watched her every step. But it does not stop there. I tried to win her by all means to the point that I had to befriend one of her bodyguards! And voila! I got her! (under my skin…)

Suffice to say, I’m proud and thankful to God I still have her and now celebrating with her our 50 years of marriage.

So to my darling wife, my General and lifetime Commander-in-Chief – thank you for loving me throughout the years – 50 years at that! I would like you to know that you are my everything now and forever, I love you and Happy Anniversary, General!

Rebellion, Anyone?

Whaddayaknow. Just had another of those unexpected hiatuses. What a great way to start the season, eh? Sorry for being absent lately, guys. Acads are crazy especially just before the holidays and Eng’g week on UP Diliman is just around the corner.

But guess what. I have a special treat (or not) for everyone. THE FIRST EVER short film I shot and directed! Haha. It’s nothing much. Really. It’s just a peek of how I worked 2 years ago. Enjoy!

Shot, Directed and Edited by: Coy Caballes

Actors: Jhossa Baes as the Mother and Rochelle Ramos as the Daughter

Script: This is what we call – “winging it”

Music By: Freddie Aguilar

I’ve been vlogging for 4 months now and you might have noticed a constant face in all of my videos and photos. He’s got more exposure than I do in most of my episodes. I’ve featured my Mom and Dad here in CokskiBlue; it’s about time to give (part of) the spotlight to the fourth and last member of the family. Yup. He’s Jet – my (not so) little brother. He’ll kill me once he sees this. Ha!It’s not really hard to have fun with this guy. He thinks of the corniest jokes and belches out very funny stories every now and then about his friends, misadventures and UP. He’s a very shy and laid-back person but he comes up with the quirkiest comments that everybody loves.

Kids (?) our age usually bond over basketball or over bottles of beer and pulutan. We bond over this:

Oh, did I mention I sang in this video?
