A little something we're gonna be doing weekly from now on, Musical Mondays features the hit songs we may have or may have not missed back in the day. If there're any songs you guys might know of back then, we're open to take requests!

Kicking it off would be this tune from Smashing Pumpkins. "Tonight Tonight" was released back in 1996 and is known as one of the band's greatest hits. While the song itself was well received and pretty damn sweet, the video that accompanied the song was what caught everyone's attention. It won 6 awards in the MTV Video Music Awards in 1996:

Video of the Year
Best Direction
Best Special Effects
Best Art Direction
Best Cinematography
Breakthrough Video

To this day, it's still considered to be one of the greatest music videos of all time

A little trivia, the video was heavily based on a silent film "A Trip to the Moon" by Georges Méliès waaay back in 1902. Here's the vid if you wanna take a peek at it:

Ang TV (“The TV” in English) is a "gag-variety" show for kids in the Philippines. The show's format was inspired by its predecessor "Kaluskos Musmos" (a popular Philippine kiddie gag show in the '70s aired over RPN-9) and its foreign counterpart "The Mickey Mouse Club". Prior to 1992, Director Johnny Manahan enlisted a group of multi-talented kids (& pre-teens) to create the first ever gag-variety show for youngsters in the Philippines.

Most of the country's current stars can point their humble beginnings to Ang TV. Popular celebrities like Claudine Barretto, Angelu de Leon, Jolina Magdangal, Rica Peralejo, John Prats, Camille Prats, Paolo Contis, Angelica Panganiban, Patrick Garcia, Mark Vernal, Kevin Vernal, Christopher Roxas, Marc Conwi (Kenneth Guanio), Kaye Abad, Alfred Manal, Roselle Nava, Carlo Aquino - to name a few - all jump-started their careers as mainstays of the variety show.

Yo! We'll be updating this site with more stuff this week. Just a little something to get the mood going ;)

No introductions needed about this one! Sorry I couldn't get the real video! If you don't know this song, I feel very very sorry for you :|

So we can continue to let the good times roll!

When was the last time you ate an Ice Scramble? That cold, pink blended ice with milk powder on top that helps you cool down when shakes, juices and water are not around when you're waiting for your busmates?

I was introduced to this pink friend of mine when I was in my gradeschool days, around 7 years ago. My mom told me not to buy from street vendors because the food they sell is not safe. You know how scramble vendors are: a man dressed in a loose plain-colored shirt, shorts, slippers, and a towel hanging around his neck, all tired and sweaty plus a bicycle with a cart with a pail on top and a blender thing inside. Naglalako ng scramble. Clean enough? I don't think so.

It was only last June 5 that I got to encounter this cold treat that has been missing in action after I graduated from gradeschool.

I was in SM Marikina with my boyfriend and brother. We were about to go home when we saw this newly improved ice scramble stand!


It still has the same taste as when I first ate it. Ahh, gradeschool days. It's fun to reminisce about the 90's. It's our year, our memories, our good times.
