The Chanel-inspired Fries and Pizza of Heart Evangelista

Wazzup Pilipinas!

On a scale of 1 to Heart Evangelista, how socially tone deaf are you?

I'm actually surprised about the hype over Heart Evangelista? I think these media are giving too much significance on her online presence. She's literally a public official's wife who's unnecessarily flaunting her wealth in the middle of a pandemic and economic recession. So it's like hitting two birds with one stone.

She's flaunting her affluence, but we know it's wrong since she's the wife of Senator Chiz Escudero.

Now I understand why most moms - the kindest, most forgiving persons I know - dislikes her with a passion beyond acceptable comprehension. She makes us feel poor everytime she goes online, but I’d still thank her because I now know who to add to the list of insensitive politicians' wives.

She deserves to be in Crazy Rich Asians 2, and not Kris Aquino who has been lying low with no noise except for her Shopee stint.

When Heart flaunted her "Chanel fries"  and "Chanel pizza" on her social media accounts, we should not be envious but furious of her.

Well, add to the fact that she played with food by probably hiring someone to exclusively make those potatoes and meat look like the Chanel logo, she is also implying that she values the brand rather than the actual fashion.

Logos are not the basis of creativity, quality, comfort and function, but it's only like a shout-out for branding prominence. She's just parading the brand logo like it's all that matters. 

We could have our own homemade clothes but it is appreciated not by its branding but by it's looks, feel and value for money. 

Heart isn’t obsessed with fashion, she’s obsessed with logos and brands — Just facts.

Real fashionista won't even want to show the brand's logo but the design and style instead.

Let's just channel our energies to social issues that ACTUALLY matter. Let's leave her whims to herself.

"Patawad" album midnight launch features Paubaya by Moira Dela Torre

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Paubaya" is such a selfless word, and such a selfless move that seeks nothing but the other person's happiness.

But then you'll also come to the point where this "paubaya" is also the one that will unchain you from something (or someone) that does nothing but burn the best out of you.

The saddest part is when you need to choose between what is right and what makes you happy.

“when you loved someone and had to let them go.”

Akala natin sila na yung para sa atin, hindi pala. Rejoice in the midst of brokenness because it's God's redirection. Learn to let go and surrender. There's a freedom and blessing in surrender. It's not to late for us to be happy. We just have to wait. 

The Paubaya song by Moira teaches us on how to be matured enough in handling a relationship. That if it’s not meant to be, it’ll never be. If you truly love someone, you need to set them free.

The sacrifices we do for love. 

I swear the lyrics cut my heart into pieces. 

This is so pure. 

"ba't di ko naisip na merong hanggan?"

This is so sad and painful. bombarding yourself with questions of how, when, why, what.....

Blaming yourself that if only you've noticed and known any sooner, it won't hit you this hard.

There are just battles that we cannot win. No matter how hard we try to fight— even with complete gears and armors... If we’re fighting alone... We won’t stand a chance. 

When you know you’re fighting a losing battle... Learn when to give up.

Paubaya reminds me so much of Take Her To The Moon. Both songs have the message of giving up your loved one for their own happiness. 

I quickly noticed this immediately once I read the lyrics! It’s almost like the Tagalog version of it.

"Paubaya" made me realize that not all things will stay. There will be a time that you need to let go even if you were the one who sticks until the end, because little did you know that when you were hurting, God prepared the right one for you. 

Taking the decision to let go of someone you love is a brave step. It’s hard but it allows you to move forward to a new beginning. To see a brighter future.. Full of hope. And full of love.

When you love someone but you wanted him/her to be happy even if that happiness means you have endure the pain of seeing him/her with someone else. Well, that's the purest kind of love.

The Weekend Pattiserie wants us to eat our Manila Bay white "Dolomite" sands frustrations

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"Here’s a cake inspired by the infamous white sand project on Manila Baywalk, complete with a toy backhoe. The cake is topped with crushed Oreos for the black sand and crushed vanilla cookies for the dolomite."

This one is not fake or synthetic. It's real creativity!

The Cavite-based The Weekend Patisserie bakeshop has designed a one-of-a-kind cake inspired by the Manila Bay white "Dolomite" sand, and it has gone viral among netizens because they can't help but relate especially the DDS who are now cursing the bakeshop and accusing them of being political. Several media outfits have also picked up the story to join the bandwagon.

It has gained captions like "Dolomite sand in a cake?" and "Self expression is a piece of cake!", "Manila Bay-ke ang peg?" and "Don't worry, this cake doesn't cost P389 million."

The Weekend Pâtisserie's "Dolomite Cake" made a statement with the literal icing on the cake reading “It really hurtz...P389-M na 'yon ghorl???," using crushed vanilla cookies and Oreos for the Dolomite and black sand respectively.”

And unlike the Dolomite beach that costs millions, the cookies and cream-flavored cake with buttercream icing only cost around P800.

This is what I love about Filipinos. Creativity mixed with humor and sarcasm keeps us anchored to sanity. Instead of going crazy towards rock bottom, we manage to become resilient enough to laugh at our situation by creating memes out of our frustrations.

But as expected, not everyone is awed by it especially the supporters of this administration as they bombard the articles with hate post like the one below:

People have been saying "I told you so" even before Benny Antiporda of the DENR reasoned out that it was not a case of "wash out but wash in" as dark sand, trash and water hyacinths have been continuously littering the shores of their prized fake sands that the administration has promoted as beneficial to our mental health.

I guess the situation at this portion of Manila Bay only proves this government has gone mental.

But we have the cake from The Weekend Pattiserie to help us get through with the disappointment.

“It was just for fun and it was our way to express our frustrations with what’s happening right now in a witty way!” the shop said.
