Magic Wand, GMA Christmas 2016 Finale of Magic ng Pasko

A cute young boy (who looks a little like Harry Potter) discovers a Magic Wand in his room. He puts a spell on his toys which multiplies in quantity. What he does with them would melt your heart.


In the finale of GMA Network's Christmas 2016 Station ID, Magic Wand tells the story of giving. This innovative 3D Animation presented by GMA is far different from past Holiday Station IDs.

The young magician happily turns his toys into gifts for other kids to enjoy. He shares them without any intention of getting something in return. Christmas is really the season of giving and spreading love.

It doesn't feature celebrities or TV personalities singing or dancing. It focuses on the core messages that this Holiday brings. It talks about family, being altruistic, happiness and love.

Easter Eggs
Part three of Magic ng Pasko is also full of easter eggs (an easter egg is a videogame phrase that pertains to a hidden surprise).

There are about a minimum of 4 easter eggs that would make you watch the video, over and over again in order to find them. If you're a true fan of GMA Network, it would be easy for you.

Try to look for these scenes in Magic Wand and guess who these characters represent.





The Christmas Village
A box of crayons, a phonograph and a wand --- what do these items all have in common? They bring magic to a little town that we all aspire to belong.

The family from Magic Crayons and the couple from Magic Phonograph also appears in this ultimate Maniwala sa Magic ng Pasko Station ID.

Together with the young wizard from Magic Wand, they all form a community. A Christmas Village full of good values and spirit that they are not afraid to share woth everyone.

Believe in the Magic of Christmas. Believe in the power of love that spreads throughout this season of hope, giving and joy.

18 'Beki' Words to Add to Your Vocabulary

Gambar
The Philippines is truly a diverse country. Aside from having thousands of islands, fifty different ways to cook adobo, we also have hundreds of languages and dialects. Filipinos are also innovative. One of the popular lingo or slang that came about during the 20th Century is known as Swardspeak or Beki. The Philippine Gay lingo is built upon words, expressions, and existing languages (local and foreign). It's full of allusion to popular culture, celebrities, places, and even events. Bekispeak is unique and shows Filipino ingenuity and adaptability to culture.  In honor of Pride Month, one LGBT Advocate came up with a compilation of Beki words to help those who would like to learn the lingo.  I'd like to thank my brother, Angelo, for coming up with this helpful collection. I've always wanted to learn a new language.  Let the Beksionary be your guide. Here are 18 Beki words to add to your growing vocabulary.  1. Chanda Romero = Tiyan 2.

21 Writers and Poets Who Died Tragically

The tortured genius. The starving artist. The antisocial behavior. The free spirit. The wandering soul. The lost generation. When we hear or read these descriptions, who comes to mind? Our answers will all be the same --- the writer, the poet, the author. Literary artists who live by the power of their words; the might of their pen. But I'm not here to talk about the quirks of their behavior or the majesty of their talent rather the tragedy that befell these masters of the written word that silenced their emotions and souls. One of my favorite quotes from the campy movie, The Mummy, "Death is just a beginning" kept coming to mind when I was researching for this blog topic. Death did not diminish the popularity of these artists but rather enhanced it; out of curiosity, created new audiences to their writings.  Suicide, Accidents, Depression, Alcoholism, Debilitating illness, these seem to be great plot ideas for a novel. But the reality is stranger than fiction; the lives ...

C olon Street in Cebu City has the distinction of being known as the oldest street in the Philippines. Throughout its more than 400 years of existence, Colon has been the center of trade, fame, prominence and even notoriety. Colon Street Heritage Marker 2001 Named after the famed Genovese navigator and explorer, Cristobal Colon or Christopher Columbus, Colon street appeals to tourists and locals alike. Bargain shopping and deals abound the various establishments that surround the street. Its historical and commercial value cannot be surpassed. Similar to going to Quiapo or Divisoria or Recto, one has to be on high alert and aware of everything that's going on around you. It doesn't help that the years of neglect and the "I don't care" attitude added to the atmosphere of grittiness and griminess that exudes from Colon. Last Friday, I was doing research for an article I was planning to write about Colon when I came across a couple of posts pertaining to Heritage Ma...
