For all the times I felt cheated, I complained
You know how I love to complain
For all the wrongs I repeated, though I was to blame
I still cursed that rain
I didn’t have a prayer, didn’t have a clue
Then out of the blue..
Ilang pagsubok na ang dumaan sa buhay mo. Ilang beses mo nang tinanong, “Bakit ako?” Ilang beses ka nang halos sumuko, pero pinaglaban mo. Ganyan ka pinalaki ng mga magulang mo- matatag, sa anumang hamon ng walang habag na mundo. Kaya siguro ang Diyos, kumakampi sa iyo ng todo. Binigay nya sa iyo ang sa katagal-tagal nang panahon na hinahanap mo.
You never thought this was going to go the distance. Nasanay ka na sa mundo ng teatro. Alam mo na ito ay mapusok, mapanlinlang, huwad. So you tried holding back. Sinubukan mong ingatan ang iyong puso. I sensed that right away, dude. You tried to protect yourself. Napagdaanan mo na to, this is not something new. You’ve been hurt before, hindi ka na magpapaloko.
Ngunit sadyang mabait sa iyo ang tadhana. Hindi mo binalak, hindi mo inakala. Hindi mo inasahan na darating sya. Serendipity daw sabi nila. Siguro nga. Talaga naman kasing pinagpapala ang taong tulad mo na likas na mapagkumbaba, may takot sa Diyos, may paggalang sa kapwa.
Si Meng. Siya ang gantimpala mo. “You didn’t have a prayer, you didn’t have a clue, but then out of the blue”– binigay sya sayo. Simula nun, andami nang nagbago sa buhay mo. Mas lalo kang hinangaan ng tao. Ang Kalyeserye nyo, naging patok sa buong mundo. Mapababae man o mapalalaki, bata o matanda, walang nakawala- lahat ay nahumaling sa istorya ng umuusbong na pag-iibigan nyo ni Meng.
Nung una ay kitang-kita mo ang kanyang paghanga. Hindi maikaila, masyado syang mapahayag sa nararamdaman nya. Kaya naman ikaw, nag-aalinlangan na. Ang tanong mo sa iyong sarili, “Eto na nga ba? Hindi ka pa sigurado kung ready ka na nga. Hanggang dumating ang araw na kayo ay nagkita. Ibang hatak ang iyong nadarama. Naguguluhan ka ngunit gumagaan ang loob mo sa kanya. Hindi mo maintindihan, hindi mo maunawaan. Eto na nga ba ang iyong magpakailanman?
Kaya tuwang-tuwa ka, nung sinabi ni lola na pwede ka nang sumuyo. Pinaghandaan mo ng sobra ang pag akyat mo ng ligaw sa dalaga. Sa harana mo, sinong puso ang hindi manghihina. Ngunit si Meng, napapailing lang sya. Di bale, pupuntahan mo naman sya, makakasama mo na ang napakagandang prinsesa, kahit ilang saglit lang, alam mo magiging masayang-masaya ka.
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why
Now I do, ’cause God gave me you
Malayo ang nilakbay mo, hanggang dumating ka na nga. Pagpasok mo sa mansion, hinahanap mo na sya. Nung pinasyal ka ng mga lola, pinapakita yung mga lumang larawan nila, pilit mong pinalalabas na interesado ka. Pero paggalang mo lang yun sa kanila. I know it was all a haze, ni hindi mo na maalala ang mga sandaling yun. Kasi, si Meng lang ang hinahanap mo. Sya lang ang nasa isip mo. “Asan na sya? Kelan ko sya makikita?” Pabalik-balik sa diwa mo.
Kaya nung pinaupo ka na sa sofa, ang lakas na ng tibok ng puso mo. Eto na sya, papanaug na ng hagdanan. Sumilip ka pa, para bang di ka makapaghintay, eh sandali lang naman bubungad na sya sa iyo ng buong-buo, pero sumilip ka pa rin. Inaaninag mo. Kaytagal ng mga segundo! Parang nag e slow-mo ang boung mundo!
Hanggang tuluyan mo na ngang masilayan ang mala-diwatang kagandahan ni Meng. Napatayo ka! Napangiti ka ng sobra. Kilala ko ang ngiting yun, hindi papoging ngiti yun. Nawala lahat ang poise mo! Natutulala ka pa nung binibigay mo ang mga bulaklak mong dala. Di mo alam anong gagawin. At nasabi mo na lang, “Ok ka lang ba?” Sumagot sya, “Ok lang”. Ayun, nabaliw na ang mga lola! Pero ikaw, todo focus mo sa babaeng nasa harap mo. Pinipisil-pisil mo ang mga daliri sa mga kamay mo, niyayakap mo mga binti mo, balisa ka, hindi ka mapakali. “All that I’m worth is right before my eyes” Bumalik sa isip mo ang linyang yun. Andyan na sya. Ang halaga ng boung buhay mo, ang dahilan kung bakit ipinanganak ka sa mundong ito, nandyan na sya, nasa harap mo na.
For all the times I wore my self pity like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in that hurt
For every glass I saw, I saw half empty
Now it overflows like a river through my soul
From every doubt I had, I’m finally free
I truly believe
Sumagi sa isip mo ang lahat ng nangyari sa nagdaang lampas sampung linggo. Dati naman alam mo may doubts ka. Akala mo aktingan lang, pampasaya lang. Laking gulat mo nang isang araw, nalaman mo na lang, nahuhulog ka na. Pilit mong pinigilan, pero sadyang mapagbiro ang tadhana. Kung kelan ayaw mo pa sana muna, saka mo naramdaman na hindi mo na talaga kaya. Mahirap kalabanin ang damdaming inaalagaan, iniingatan.
Yan ang napala mo kaka-stalk sa kanya. Wag mo nang i-deny, wala ding maniniwala. Ginusto mong makilala sya, malaman ang boung buhay nya. Napasobra ang alaga mo sa nararamdaman mo para sa kanya, hanggang napuno ka at di mo na naitatago pa. Hindi mo na alintana ang nakaraan. Tuluyan ka nang nabighani. Nawala nang lahat ang mga hinagpis mo, parang nagbago ang iyong mundo. Lahat ng pag-aalinlangan, mga pangamba, biglang naglaho nung makasama mo sya. Kung dati nakakulong ka pa sa mga karanasang binigay sa iyo ng napakalupit mong mundo, ngayon, sabi nga dun sa kanta, “From every doubt I had, I’m finally free!” Malaya ka na. Malayang-malaya ka na.
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why
Now I do, ’cause God gave me you
Kaya napakasaya mo! Habang pinaglalapit kayo, nahihirapan kang pigilan ang sarili mo. Nung unang magdikit yung mga balat nyo, naitulak lang ni Lola Tinidora si Meng. Pero ramdam mo yun. Ramdam na ramdam mo yun. Napatingin ka sa braso mo, napahipo ka sa parte kung saan nagkalapat yung mga balat nyo. Si Meng, napatingin sya sa iyo. Parang nagtatanong, “Ano yun?” It was the slightest of touch, but why does it burn too much? You can never forget that sensation. Hanggang ngayon, I know, napapatingin ka pa rin paminsan-minsan sa braso mo. Dito yun. Ramdam mo pa rin ang munting init na yun.
Nung pinag dubsmash na ang linyang “God Gave Me You”, eh dba napaiyak ka nung kinakanta mo? Ngayon uli, nangingilid na naman ang luha sa mga mata mo. Pero dapat wag pahalata, nakatitig si Meng. Isang bihirang pagkakataon na nakatitig sya sayo, kasi ikaw ang hindi makatingin. Naluluha ka. Sobra. Kaya dinaan mo na lang sa tawa, sabay pahid. Pero nakita ni Meng yun, at napapangiti sya.
Tinatanong ka nya kung kakanta kaba, sinabi mo tapos na. Kaya pala, di pala nya nakita nung binuhos mo ang puso’t kaluluwa mo sa pagkanta. Sayang, pero me replay nga naman, sigurado ako, mapapaluha sya pag napanood na nya. Kahit pusong bato mapapaluha sa ginawa mo. Inaamin ko, napasobra din nang konti ang emosyon ko, kaya napasabay ako sa pagluha mo. Konti lang naman. Sabihin na lang natin ng ganyan. Nakakahiya din eh, kalalaki kong tao.
In your arms I’m someone new
With ever tender kiss from you
Oh, must confess
I’ve been blessed
Balik tayo sa mesa, nagka chance ka to get a tender kiss, hindi man direkta pero ganun na rin yun. Sinunggaban mo ang pagkakataon. Akala mo di namin mapapansin. Akala mo di nya mapapansin. Akala mo lang yun. Hinimud ng bibig mo ang tinidor na dumapo sa matatamis na labi ni Meng. Dalawang beses, dude. Sa pansit tsaka sa cake. At sinundan pa ng labi mo ang lapat ng lipstick niya sa basong pina-inuman mo sa kanya. Sinadya mo, wala sa script yun. Patago. Ginawa mo nung na distract sya, nung di sya nakatingin sa yo. Pero me replay nga dba? Wala kang kawala sa prinsesa. You now know that she knows. And I know, masaya ka na alam na nya.
Nagbunyi ang boung mundo nang umiinom si Meng sa baso at nahawakan niya ang kanang kamay mo. Sabi ko, aba, me da moves na rin ang Meng namin! Pero nakita ko, di ka nagpatalo, hinawakan mo rin ang kanang kamay nya, dun sa likod ng baso. She was touching the back of your hand, but you wanted to touch hers too. Iba ang pakiramdam pag ikaw ang humahawak kesa ikaw ang hinahawakan. Hinding-hindi mo palalagpasin ang pagkakataon na yun. Magalit na si Lola, aksidente lang naman, pasensyahan na.
Sa mga mumunting moments na yun, that’s when you knew. “I’ve been blessed.” Talaga nga palang pinagpala ka.
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why
Now I do, ’cause God gave me you
Totoo na talaga. Pati picture na kayo ay magkasama, hindi na edited, hindi na photoshop, totoo na. Hindi ka makapaniwala, hindi na one foot ang pagitan nyong dalawa, kaya pinagpapawisan ka. Andyan pa rin kasi sya, nasa harap mo na. Di sya makatitig sa yo, sobrang na conscious, kasi ang lapit-lapit mo. Ilang beses nyang sinubukan, at ilang beses syang nabigo. Masyadong malakas ang dating mo, di nya kinaya ang appeal mo.
Pero ikaw din naman. Kunyaring in control, pero di maalis ang tingin mo sa kanya. Pinagpapawisan na para bang malamig na Coca Cola. Halos magkandarapa ka sa kilig. Eto na kasi sya, nasa tabi mo na. Ang bango-bango ng buhok nya. Kita ko yun, inamoy mo. Banayad lang ang tulak ni Lola Tinidora sa yo, tinodo mo. Akala ko hahalikan mo na, buti na lang nakapagpigil ka. Pero dun ka talaga sumilong sa may leeg nya, sabay amoy sa halimuyak ng buhok nya. Wag kang masyadong padadala, baka masanay ka. Hahanap-hanapin mo pa.
Sa pag alis mo ng mansion, may liham syang inabot. For your eyes only daw, kaya wala na kami dun. Pero bakas sa iyo ang lubos na kasiyahan. Nang nasa labas ka na, ang amo ng iyong mukha, nagpapahiwatig na sa araw na ito naging kumpleto ka. Hindi ka makaalis ng mabilisan, tinititigan mo pa rin sya. Nilulunod mo ang mga mata mo sa kagandahan ng tanawing nakaladlad sa yo. Iniisip mo, kelan ko uli matatamasa ito.
At napangiti ka dahil nauunawaan mo na. Malapit na. Malapit na malapit na.
Ang Tamang Panahon. Abot kamay mo na. ~ Vilo

Sir Vilo,
Honestly, yung unang post mo, yung pinutakte namin ng comment? Nawindang ako. Hindi ako agree sa ibang punto pero ito..bull’s eye!! napapunyeta ako dahil Sir ito rin po ang obserbasyon naming lahat sa bahay. Kada nood ng replay ganun grabe, lumalala.
Alam mo yung mga moments na may tugtog na..DAPAT NAGDADUBSMASH sila eh pero puro TITIGAN lang pinaggagawa ng mga baliw. Nakakainis dahil sobrang kilig talaga. Nakakainis!!! hahaha.
Tapos nung pinunasan ni Meng ang icing sa buhok niya, juskopo ang pula ng mukha at lalong umagos ang pawis ni Alden. Then yun binigay ang letter, grabe. Sobrang halata na hindi niya inexpect nun. Sobrang nawala siya sa character or whatever. Tapos nung nagpaalam na.
Sabi ko talaga “Alam ko ang mukhang yan! alam na alam ko yan!” I’ve said goodbyes to people too many times. Yung feeling na aalis ka muna, yung feeling na “ayoko pang umalis dahil sobrang enjoy pa.” Yung feeling na “Ang saya saya tapos dapat na akong umalis.” Jusko lang.
Kapag umaalis mama namin papuntang abroad dahil dun siya nagtatrabaho, may moment na hinahatid sa airport tapos puro lokohan lang ang mga paalaman pero may moment talaga eh na lumalabas yung “ayoko pang umalis” face. Yung moment na alam mong totohanang paalam na talaga tapos antagal pang magkikita ulit..ganung ganun ang mukha ni Alden nun eh. Tapos yung flying kiss niya, hindi na pabebe na flying kiss or animated. Iba yung nasa mata niya, iba yung ngiti..Yung tipong nilulunod niya sarili niya sa pagmumukha ni Meng para may baon siya sa buong week.
Juskopo.
Tapos ayun nga..kahapon! Ang hyper na niya. Kada lunes talaga, nag iiba na siya. Ibang aura na. Mas hyper, mas energetic. Nag iba si Alden, mas mukha siyang inspired ngayon. And with Meng, she’s blooming.

What is your thought about dun sa line na dinubsmash ni Maine kay Alden na parang kaibigan lang siya kay Alden? Hindi kasi pinansin gano ni Alden ung dubsmash na yun kasi he is looking forward sa boses ni Maine. Nakangiti pa nga sya nun kasi wala siyang pakialam sa laman nung sinasabi pero ung boses lang talaga. I think parang medyo na-disappoint si Meng after nun (and I think pati ang creative heads o ung namimili ng dubsmash), sabi nga natin, pinipili na talaga nung creative heads ung dubs, scenes, kung saan mapapalabas nila ung emotions talaga ni Alden as Richard talaga like yung kahapon na “There was never an us.” at napakunot noo siya. Ano pong masabi nyo dun sir Vilo? 🙂

Hindi ako sa Vilo pero eto sinabi ko sa isang post ni Sir Vilo regardiing sa epi kanina
I just watched the KS replay and in my opinion, may halong spontaneous lang yung “threat” ng mga Lola’s kay A dahil doon sa kwento ni Jose about Bill. Oo yung pagkakasabi ni Jose with conviction at talagang ramdam na ramdam, for sure half meant yun parang payo na din reel at real life. As for M’s hugot lines, parang ang take ko lang is meron lang sya konkesyon sa mga susunod na episode ng KS as in like paano papatunayan ni A sa KS na more than just friends ang nararaman nya para kay M. Hindi ako masyado nagaalala dooon sa “threat” like most comments in here kundi sa tingin ko ay parte lang talaga ng preogression ng story so let’s sit back and relaxlang aldubnation. Sabi nga ni Lola sa tamang panahon! Hintayin nalang natin ang epi bukas at abanagan kung ano ang meron sa weeksary at sa Sabado.

Sa palagay ko po now maine is in control. Maghaka haka lang ako sa sulat.ang napansin ko kasi nawala ang stress at pressure ni alden after saturday. Based on the personality ni maine palagay ko (hakahaka lang) ang laman ng sulat ay reassurance from maine na wag sya mapressure sa kanilang sitwasyon na gawin itong totoo . Napansin ko lang after nyan kasi nagpost ni alden za ig nya tuloy ang forever! Somehow its a bit like from the actor than the real alden.
And now we see a strong maine and very in control of the situation. But from the episode today i see alden maybe because of the sulat nga that he is much more relaxed because theres no pressure now. But somehow he doesnt realize he is slowly falling inlove. He doesnt know it yet.
Bout the paalala ng lolas i dont think it has something to do with the storyline.i think the payo is for real. They are concerned kasi they were there last saturday they must have observed evrything at alam naman natjn team maine ang jowapao. Theyre giving him a reminder before it gets serious. Plus may kumakalat about julie ann san jose and alden during sunday pinasaya. Naglalaro daw backstage. Well for now whatever is the feelings of alden,im no longer worried for maine. She just showed she a strong girl. From saturday until now shes in command.

I totally agree with you. Hindi ni maine isusuko ang beliefs and values nya. She has that “it” factor. So young, yet so confident. She really knows what is right and wrong. Kudos to her parents/family. I love that girl probably because i hsppen to have a 22 year old daughter. I know, na kahit “showbiz” talaga ang ks, maine can and will survive. Unti-unti ng lumalabas ang mga behind the camera personality ni maine. I don’t believe na hindi sya aware na sikat na sya. Alam nya yan. Matalino kaya si maine. Talagang humble and grounded lng talaga sya. Yes, this is her secret ultimate dream and god is giving it to her. Napansin ko din na hindi sya ang tipo na magsasabi palagi about her “god” but makikita mo sa mga post nya na napaka-christian nya. Well, on that note, (pahiram papi sam), nasasakal tayo sa problema but truly, MAINE IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR..

Yes, Vilo, that’s correct, it’s all part of the story na gusto nilang iparating, it was all controlled by the people around them. Kaya pag meron kaung narinig na lines na feeling nyo me pinapatamaan ay wag nyong isipin na para ke A yon, ang totoo po ay para yon sa lahat in general. As I’ve said before in my first comment, A has a thing on M and lets just wait sa tamang panahon. Kasi, maganda ang takbo ng kalye serye pa. I will share with you some observations pa. Mapupuna mo si A pag totoo ang reactions nya sa mga situations and not actingan lang, pansinin nyo hand gestures nya, hinahawakan nya tenga nya, dibdib, batok at yong shoulder non parang nalalaglag at nag-lilick sya ng lips nya. Kaya yong nakita natin last saturday, lahat yon ay real hindi na arte. A is a very shy person and true gentleman and he wont say anthing about his real feelings for M sa mga interviews nya kasi nga hindi pa tamang panahon, so, guys dont be disappointed kasi choice yong ng mga bosses. All I can say is, A is very happy and inspired.

Hindi nya inaassume na may gusto talaga o feelings si Alden sknya pero nararamdaman nya n meron pero ayw nyang tanggapin o panghawakan kasi she wants confirmation from him. She wants him to tell her.

I’m a fan of Maine and will support her regardless of who she ends up with. If it’s RFJ, great. Lucky him. But all we can do at this point is speculate (and read Mr. Vilo’s blog and all the insightful comments). I know we all want it to be totohanan na, but I don’t think Maine would want RFJ to make a move simply because it’s what everyone expected of him. I think she would rather wait for something honest and real.
On a brighter note, I do think there’s a flicker of hope for RFJ and Maine. I used to think it was unrequited love and I was scared for our Maine. But based on what we’ve seen lately in KS, RFJ appears to be reciprocating, albeit cautiously. So I’m hopeful. RFJ seems to be the kind of person who lives his life with purpose and direction, and Maine landing on his lap so unexpectedly kind of throws him off track. She turned his world upside down and so I can understand his apprehension.
In the meantime, I’m just going to sit back and wait patiently for their lovestory to unfold (and continue to visit this blog because you guys fuel my guilty pleasure!)

I liked your previous Alden post and been reading all 1,000-plus comments. This Tisoy thing though, loved it more. I agree with all your insightful comments and observations. I am a lil late coming into this, I discovered it “accidentally” on the day the first meeting happened, I was watching a large group of people screaming at the TV monitors and got curious. It’s funny and comforting that a lot of people are like me, I rarely watch local channels and the last time I watched EB yung opening song nya yung Superman theme pa, I think that’s in the 80s!
For this blog, Vilo (will not call you sir, I am older than you haha) I thank you. It’s been enlightening.
“A” seems vulnerable to me — not as a person, I think he is made of sterner stuff to go through all that — but as the other half of this AlDub partnership. Honestly, I see “M” as the spitfire partner. The protector in this team. And she will be fierce and loyal once they are more comfortable and confident in what this is all about. That would take time. And patience.
Right now, they’re building on their trust issues. Which is real difficult because they don’t talk on a personal level and in private. We can all see they approach this differently.
M has had a freer life. She seems to have the love, support and trust of her parents all her life. And it made her confident about herself, able to laugh at herself, to dream, to be disappointed, and if madapa sya to pick herself up and move on. She blossomed and she’s been able to do pretty much what she wants to do. And she is aggressive, a go-getter. She sees something she likes, she goes after it. She ‘s only 20 though, and impatient. When she feels frustrated, you feel it.
First level: trust and friendship. This is what we all see (or most of us) developing in these two, despite their limitations. It’s inevitable because they are the only ones who understands what they are going through. Sila lang makaka relate sa isa’t isa.
I love the few episodes where they see each other (past 4 Saturdays) because more than the kilig, you see the happiness. It comes across our TV screens and we are drawn to it. And also — I will admit — the possibility that one day, there could be more.
Watching and re-watching the Ligaw episode, they seem to go away from that experience a lot more assured. It is when they are on separate screens that the urong-sulong happens again. Odd that when they are on separate screens, it is a reality check. Other people are watching them, and they are acting, except for some unguarded moments (is why we’re here, right?). But when they do see each other — everything else fades to black, until one of them remembers they are broadcasting live.
For these two, off-cam, it will be a matter of time. And space. And a level of maturity.
I like A, sometimes more than M. You know why? He’s under pressure, a lot of pressure and yet, he is trying to keep things together in his world. There’s a chance he is the one who will get hurt, in the end. But with M? As his friend or his “more” — who knows, up to them and time — he will always have support and yes, a protector. I see evidence in how protective M could be. I saw this in the couch scene. Before that, she was too shy to look at him, but on that couch when he got teary eyed (she was too) her eyes were intently on him and she wanted to touch his face. I liked the way she looked at him and she forgot to be self-conscious.
So … I guess I am going to to see more urong-sulong in KS. But my optimistic side is convinced that it will all work out. Not immediately. Eventually. Love moves the world and these two certainly have.
Cheers all.

Your thoughts echo my sentiments, shrooberry. It’s reassuring to know that I am probably not overthinking things as somebody else actually has the same analogy — that the two are holding back their feelings when on split screen, and that they are oblivious to the world when face to face; thus, in a sense, urong-sulong. This has been an emotional tug-o-war for me and I’m only a spectator in all these. I can’t imagine being in their shoes!
I am hoping for something more to happen. I am praying that the Eat Bulaga hosts and writers tease them well enough for them to bite the bullet. Hah, kahit hinog pa sa pilit! Life is too short and it surely goes by fast. I think this is the perfect time in their lives to be in a love team. YOLO.

I agree with you. Based on what I’ve read so far, they appear to have a different upbringing. A’s actions would be a bit more calculated because whatever decision he makes not only affect him but also the people who depend on him (I read somewhere that he is the breadwinner in his family). He has a lot to lose so I can understand why he would be more apprehensive. Maine, on the other hand, comes from a well-to-do family. Even if this whole showbusiness thing doesn’t pan out, she’ll still hit the ground running.

Thanks. You know how you try to let them be and just try watching KS unfold and laugh at the 3 lolas’ antics, and I also think I’m too told for this, rooting for two semi-reality TV performers and pray they make it? Together? And yes, two completely different backgrounds, and entirely different personalities. But they work and these two good kids deserve each other, I sincerely believe that.

PS. Can I just say that I absolutely love JoWaPao. Their improv sketches crack me up. Good vibes all around! At first I wasn’t sure how 3 lolas would play out in the situation but I have come to appreciate how they’re able to illustrate the essentially conservative norm of Filipino customs. Also love how protective they are of Maine. It’s very endearing.
And about Tuesday’s epi, I have a feeling that Alden is going to come clean to Lola Nidora about accidentally touching hands with Yaya last Saturday (and possibly caught on cam?). If that’s the case, then does it mean Lola Nidora will come between them again? That would be a real bummer, given how their lovestory has been progressing. Anyway, just another speculation on my part. I guess we’ll find out soon enough!

first time to comment here:
My appreciation to sir Vilo for such amazing pieces. Your articles in both english and tagalog captures the essence of this fandom. With my line of work and type of hobbies I do encounter a lot of pieces like this but not the ones marvelously written for a LOVETEAM. My gratitude again for sharing this to us.
For yesterday’s episode here are my thoughts:
We are all aware that EB is the one preparing the script and the songs for the day. I do not think they will compromise something FINANCIALLY productive on their part (as a company) just to hit on Alden and the Yaya dub’s or Maine’s loveteam. In my own observation, the “HUGOT lines” are ways the EB people are showing the viewers that Maine Mendoza can act, deliver her lines properly, can develop into a total performer and not just dub.
Noticed also how FANTASTIC the EB team are in coming up with such adrenaline and intoxicating episodes almost every Saturday that the hangover can even lasts on a Monday? How we all rip the replay buttons on Sundays and anticipate the Monday’s episode? Why on Mondays , the first day of the work week, we are like StarBOX caffeine driven individuals eager to wake up and awaits the KS? But on Tuesdays , the episode tends to drag our emotions down ? Then anticipates the Wednesday episodes if it could lift our spirits? And the excitement we feel on Thursdays for their Weeksary? and the eagerness we feel on Fridays for the things that may or might happen for the upcoming Saturdays? and then here we go all over again in this roller coaster ride of Kalye Serye when Saturdays comes. See how amazng the EB people are? They are.
Continuing to today’s episode, the advises and the threats of Wally and Jose are both for Aldub and Maiden. As the ones who are always with Maine, they have grown to be protective over her. Wally and Jose are like the uncles and Paolo as the elder brother who need to protect the newest member of their KS. Noticed even how the EB staff, Jose and Wally secured Maine even during the sugod bahay?
I dont think their advises are related to the reality show that Alden guested. Basically, Alden was just being honest with his answers during that show. It was the appropriate answer. How can one LOVE a person when one have not even known her/him that much?
Maine may admire Alden’s looks but she knows how to guard herself well. And we all know that. She won’t just fall prey (in love) to the charms of Alden in just a click. She maybe young and young at heart but with the support that she have behind her (family, friends and this famdom) I know she will use both her heart and mind properly before impulsively getting into something.
Let them enjoy the brilliance that their stars are shinning right now. Let us, the fans, just be supportive with whatever may happen to their loveteam. Anyways, it is still too early to tell.
Again, Sir Vilo – kudos to you! Keep the articles coming.

I agree with your observation/analysis. Kaya nga EB lasted 36 years kasi creative talaga ang Creative Dept. they know their stuff. Ive studied the structure of storytelling and script writing, and yes you need at times to plateau to slowly go up and then when everyone is hanging… It drops and it will give us the thrill and ride of our lives,, climax ika nga. Parang roller coaster lang yan. And I must say it worked.
Thank you for having this venue to vent, understand, get different sides and for me, to bring me back to the reality that it’s entertainment. Who knows? Life might imitate art, sabi nga ng song “Somewhere only we (they) know”.
And with that I am looking forward to the next blog/observation Sir Vilo, again Thank you!

Wala bang handlers si Alden to guide him about his actions and better answers? Not to restrain him to show biz answers but massage the message and delivery? Siguro naman ang questions in Sam ay predetermined. Masakit lang iyong sagot sa Bakit ka naiyak? Two days ago inialay ang song kay Meng then biglang wala man lang recognition. As someone said earlier career suicide iyan. Na depress ako duon sa comments sa Eat Bulaga page sa FB. Meron nang factions and understandably most were pro-Maine. I think she will survive even flourish pag nawala na ang AlDub. I don’t think A will.

I believe that Alden’s ideal girl is more to the likes of Sarah Labati, Julie Ann San Jose or Louise de los Reyes, not a simple but beautiful Maine.

On one hand, I like reading your articles, v ery nice thoughts and insights. I am a fan. Keep writing!

Hi, Sir Vilo. First of all, I wanna thank you for your great blog! All of your posts were a nice read. 🙂
Lately ung mga post dito is napaka-nega. Bout Kay A and J. I just wanna clear out na ung nagkakalat po nun is just a dummy account. Wag po tayo magpapaniwala sa mga nababasa natin online. (Go to Nate Gonzaga’s twitter, siya po ‘yung President ng FC ni A para ma-clear na po ung issue na ‘yun)
Please good vibes lang po tayo lahat. We don’t have the right to push A & M. Just enjoy the show. Wag po natin husgahan ung both sides. And also, we were not in the right place to say “M deserves someone better”. Who are we to tell that? Hindi naman po natin sila kilala personally, ung mga actions lang nila sa KS ung nakikita natin. Offcam, wala po tayong alam sa nangyayari. So please, stop the badvibes. Maging contented po tayo.
Haha. I’m one of the million sa AlDub nation na gusto talaga sila magkatuluyan. They complement each other. To Meng and Tisoy, wag laying mapressure. I know that, sa journey niyo you’ll get there. Hoping the end would be a rainbow. 😍 💜💓💕

I don’t have WP so I will just verbally “like” your comment. I wasn’t even going to comment at all but I am stuck in traffic so — I am just going to say these two lovely creatures are light workers and they have been bringing constant positive sentiments in me, in us. We are attracted to light workers, we see them and gravitate towards them because we are surrounded by darkness (yin yang principle). I am not surprised that these negativities are here now. Been creeping along for some time. Sabi nga ni Joey de Leon, di ka naman kakapitan at hihilahin pababa kundi ka pataas na.
People, trust your instincts and our own positive light inside ourselves, it is what drew us to A and M. Have tunnel vision if you must, ignore the peripherals. We cannot be wrong in our good vibes, there’s so many of us.

I agree with you, Madison. I can’t feel the sincerity in A. The change in A was probably due to the letter M gave to him. M must have advised A not to succumb to pressure and just relax and that provided A the relief. It’s “aktingan lang”, so just be himself. Maybe that’s the reason why he appears to be energetic and “happy” ( I don’t want to say inspired but instead “relieved” maybe). I hope I am wrong. I wish to see the real Richard Faulkerson Jr. in the days ahead, sincere, fearless, true and sure of his feelings.
Sorry folks for the negative thoughts and doubts. I really like Maine and I don’t want her to get hurt. She still young and fragile but I believe she’s made of sterner stuff. I will continue to support her all the way whatever will be the outcome of this very enthralling and entertaining KS.
I wish to see the real Richard Faulkerson Jr. in the days ahead, sincere, fearless true to and sure of his feelings. I will be happiest if they will end up together forever..

Agree with this one. But I believe that M has already touched on Richard Faulkerson’s heart. Not sure if it’s just me but from yesterday’s episode, you can see the shy and happy smile on A’s face while waiting for M’s surprise. Then the part where M sang for the first time, the initial smile that came to his face was unguarded and real. (Medyo pumangit itsura nya and lumabas all his teeth as smile nya! Hahahaha!) Then he schooled his features to revert back to A the actor.
In case they don’t end up for real (which I’m sure A will regret forever), I’m sure they”ll will remain very special friends because M sees Richard Faulkerson and not Alden Richards.
I agree also that M should guard her heart because she doesn’t know if A returns her feelings for real or if it’s just friendship he can offer for now. Or if A does like her, she doesn’t know when he will have the courage to come out and admit it.

And “A” is a gentleman bakit ko nasabi, sabi nyo nga “M” is just starting showbizness at may nagsasabi pa na mahigpit din ang parents nya siguro inaalagaan lang din ni “A” ung career nya at career ni “M”, and lastly “A” di sya mahilig sumagot ng pa showbiz. bakit mas gusto nyo ba sabihin nya na “yes may something na ako para kay “M” sa harap ng national TV para lang pakiligin ang Aldubnation? tapos sasabihin nyo ginagamit ni “A” si “M” para sumikat lalo sya?

About Julie, I dont think that’s true. may interview si Alden since 2013, he denied na may relationship sila. he even said they are just friends and that he is just focused sa trabaho.
I remembered may naging issue din sa kanilang dalawa, maybe they were MU, but something ugly happened that made Alden unfollowed Julie. what could make Alden unfollow someone close to him? and after that hindi na daw sila nagkausap pa. until nga mag start ang SPS, dun lang sinabi ni Alden na wala na ung kung anuman na nangyari, that they’d moved on na. ayaw pa nga yang i-elaborate pa kung ano talaga nangyari. I think he is really a very private person when it comes to his relationships which i admire.
and with today’s KS epi, i can sense that they are now starting to know each other privately. They are so relax and jolly with each other, its like they share something that only them knows. ibigay na natin iyon sa kanila.
wag naman sana nating pangunahan si Alden at si Maine. kung walang Alden, walang Maine and vice versa. I love them both, let us not take sides here sana.
i believe that they both deserve each other.

This post reminded me of Ricky Lee’s Para Kay B. I find the excerpt (I will post below) sort of applicable to AlDub:
“Alam mo ba ang ibig sabihin ng conjure?
Isa ka bang Capital S?
Me quota ang pag-ibig. Sa bawat limang umiibig ay isa lang ang magiging maligaya.
Kasama ka ba sa quota?
“May nagsabi na Relative ang pagiging masaya pero hindi ba excuse lang yan ng mga malulungkot..”
Ito ang teorya ng Writer:
Me quota ang pag-ibig. Sa bawat limang umiibig, isa lang ang magiging maligaya. Ang iba, iibig sa di sila iniibig. O iibig nang di natututo. O iibig na wala. O di iibig kailanman.
Ang iba’y iibig sa maling panahon, umibig na noong 1980s, nakipagmartsa sa mga aktibista, pero ang taong nakatakda para sa kanya ay nabuhay noon pang 1930s, isang rebelde laban sa mga amerikano, matagal nang namatay. Kaya she keeps falling in love sa mga lalaking mas matatanda hinahanap sa kanila ang di mahanap na wala, hindi mapagtagpo ang kahapon at ang kasalukyan.
May mga pusong pinaglalaruan. Nasa parehong building ng call center but they will never realize that they are on the same floor. Maski parang laging may strange force na humihila sa kanila para tumingin sa kabilang building. Kailanman ay di sila magtatagpo. Tanungin man siya ng boyfriend niya kung ano iyong lagi niyang tinitignan sa kabila ay di niya masasagot. At kailanman ay di niya malalaman dahil eventually ang lalaki ay lilipat sa ibang lugar, at siya, hanggang sa mamatay, di na niya malalaman kung sino nga iyong nasa kabila.
Merong pinalad na nagkakilala, nagkaibigan at nagsama. Pero sa di malamang dahilan ay iniwan ng babae ang lalaki. Mabubuhay ang lalaki sa walang hanggang paghahanap. Mari-realize niya na ang pag-ibig ay laging paghahanap. Pero hindi niya kailanman mahahanap ang babae dahil ang totoong hindi niya mahanap ay ang kanyang sarili.
Merong away nang away kapag magkasama pero hindi naman kaya ang makahiwalay. Merong nagmamahal lamang kapag nananakit. Meron relihiyon ang humaharang, o katayuan sa buhay, o mga magulang. Merong sila mismo ang gumagawa ng harang.
Merong umiibig na habang nagtatagal ay lalong nawawalan ng IQ. Merong pag umibig ay napupundi ang 4 out of 5 senses, touch lang ang natitira. Merong ang tingin sa pag-ibig ay tali. Meron di makahakbang dahil sa pag-ibig at merong namang nakakalipad. Merong ang tingin sa pag-ibig ay hapunang walang sawsawan. Merong pag umibig ay nahaharap sa salamin, sarili ang sinasamba. Merong ang tingin sa pag-ibig ay parusa.
Ang iba’y iibig sa hayop, dahil noong unang panahon ay mga hayop sila. Ang iba’y iibig sa mga bahay, kinikilig kapag hinahaplos ang barandilya, nalilibugan sa mga kisame, pinagnanasaan ang sahig. Patuloy silang mananakit sa mga babaing umiibig sa kanila dahil hindi nila kailanman malalaman ang puso nila ay gawa sa kahoy.
Pero merong isa sa lima, harangan man ng kulog, ng ganid, ng lindol, ng teknolohiya, mahahanap niya ang kanyang mahal. Siya lang ang magiging maligaya.
Hindi mo pwedeng mahalin ang isang tao nang hindi mo minamahal ang hilaga, silangan, timog at kanluran ng kanyang paniniwala. Kapag nagmahal ka’y dapat mong tanggapin bawat letra ng kanyang birth certificate. Kasama na doon ang kanyang libag, utot at bad breath. Pero me limit. Pantay-pantay ang ibinibigay na karapatan sa lahat ng tao upang lumigaya, o masaktan, o magpakagago, pero kapag sumara na ang mga pinto, nawasak na ang mga puso, nawala na ang mga kaluluwa at ang bilang ay umabot na sa zero, goodbye na. Pero, the memory of that one great but broken love will still sustain you, tama nga na mas matindi ang mga alaala.”

the biggest question here is whether richard has feelings for maine.. this is just my POV..
when this all started.. july 16, 2015, alden was asked to go out & watch maine.. who wouldn’t get conscious & kilig when somebody as cute as alden would stare at you while you’re making fun of yourself?
but when the staff told alden to sit there, he could have opposed.. real
emotions would be played.. but he sat there on his own free will… why? bec as he stated in his interview.. he’s been watching her dubsmashes even before kalyeserye started.. he’s been admiring her from afar.. you can’t command a guy make pacute to someone if he doesn’t like it.. i have brothers, i know that..
some hints were made.. the box of candies with the oh..happiness mesage.. the alden love maine fs.. the genuine smiles & kilig.. & the song ggmy sincerely dedicated to meng..
richard, a gentleman as he is, would not let a girl fall for him and leave her hanging.. he knows it would hurt bec he had a mother & he has a sister..
love is a different thing.. it’s a deeper level & it would take time & they would have to know each other better..
if i were maine, i will wait for him because he’s definitely worth wait..
i really am praying that these two will end up together.. not bec it’s what the fans want but bec i believe that they are destined to be together.

Maine singing Mandy Moore’s Cry today was perfect. She didn’t sing the whole song but the lyrics are just perfect, especially the line, “It was there that I realized that forever was in your eyes, the moment I saw you cry.”
Posting the lyrics of the song here:
I’ll always remember
It was late afternoon
It lasted forever
And ended too soon
You were all by yourself
Staring up at a dark gray sky
I was changed
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
The moment that I saw you cry
It was late in september
And I’ve seen you before (and you were)
You were always the cold one
But i was never that sure
You were all by yourself
Staring at a dark gray sky
I was changed
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
I wanted to hold you
i wanted to make it go away
I wanted to know you
I wanted to make your everything, all right….
I’ll always remember…
It was late afternoon…
In places no one would find…
In places no one would find
All your feelings so deep inside (deep inside)
It was then that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry
“You were always the cold one” Doesn’t this best reflect perhaps Alden’s initial doubts? And how perfect also that their last date was late in September and prior to that “they have seen each other before”. Brilliant song choice by Maine!! Both of them have changed in good ways because of this show 🙂
