RIP Whitney

Wow. Life is short. You must have probably known by now that The Whitney Houston had died, at 48. Like I said, life is short. Just the other day, I was singing Saving All My Love For You. Just the other day, my colleagues and I were watching Whitney concerts. Just the other day I was watching Maya Rudolph impersonate Whitney on Saturday Night Live (that memorable and hilarious Betty White episode). Then today, I woke up with that news.

I am not a Whitney fan but I know several of her songs. And I sing  them. And I even have her Greatest Hits and Million Dollar Bill albums. And I love The Bodyguard. And I.............

Wow. It's amazing how everything can be recognized once you're gone. Did you know that Whitney is the most-awarded female act of all time?  But did you also know that she DOES NOT have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame? 

What I'm saying is. You think you know, but you have no idea. We really think that we have all the time in the world to do all we want, how we want them, when we want them. Really? Only time can tell.

I just wish before our time is up, we had spent the moments wisely- to know other people more, to accept ourselves more. And enjoy life. Live while we are in it.

RIP Whitney Houston

(August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012)

Ramblings: Happy December!

Wait, let me just kiss November good bye! I welcomed December, writing scripts - yet again! And eternally revising them! But what's really good to note is that the Grammy Awards' nomination ceremony is just a few hours away, and the Victoria's Secret's Fashion Show is about to be shown in CBS, slated for today's release as well! Did I just hear about a $2 million bra? Wow, you gotta put a lotta investment THERE! Haha.

For the Grammys, I read that Adele may be rolling in the deep with the most number of nods ever! And Lady Gaga + Nicki Minaj might be in the running for many nominations as well. Let's just wait and find out the breaking story soon!

As for the VSFS, someone linked me up with this behind the scenes write up when it was taped last November 9 at Lexington Avenue Armory in New York City. So excited to see this year's ceremony because apparently, it set the trend to combine the best trends in fashion/lingerie + good music, all LIVE! Remember when Katy Perry and Akon, among others performed there? Or the time when Usher and J.T., rocked the stage, with the latter bringing 'sexy back'? Hmmm. Nice! Nice view! LOL

Well, that's how I started my December! Including a chance to enjoy several downloaded albums! And to name some, I've got the original soundtrack of Bridget Jones's Diary, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, The School of Rock, and High Fidelity to name some!

Well, apart from 'burning the midnight oil' so to speak, it was a good way to welcome December nonetheless! How about you?
