After we finished distributing the goods to the street children along Roxas Boulevard in Malate, Manila; we – the Pinoys Heart Britney together with yours truly- headed towards Ortigas , Pasig City as William Pombo booked an overnight  room for us at Oakwood Premier Joy- Nostalg Hotel.  The said overnight stay-cation is a celebration for the success of “Why Don’t You Do Somethin’?- Charity event.

We arrived at 10PM in the hotel; the others were assigned to buy stuff for our dinner and the other half were assigned to cook. It was agreed that we’re gonna cook our dinner just to feel the celebration (YUNG TIPONG NAGHAHANDA which is a Filipino Culture). Well, it was crazy as I took advantage of the clean and pleasant kitchen of the hotel. I came up an idea of filming the cooking session of ROY (one of the Britney Armies). Honestly, it was actually my first time to meet these guys during the event (except William Pombo since he is my office-mate); and truly, cooking is really the best way for bonding and knowing them personally.

In fact, the planned-party became a cooking show and later on, turned into a comical vlog. Originally, I was just planning to create a formal cooking show just like Erwan Heussaff ‘s Youtube Channel but sadly, it became a hilarious content as everyone is punching a joke. The others were even disturbing us while filming.

Undeniably, I should say that I love the companion of these guys. We’re all diverse and has different upbringing but the overnight stay-cation with them runs harmoniously – full of laughter and joy. Thank you guys for the experience and merry Christmas.

Why Don’t You Do Something? A Heartwarming Charity Event Inspired by Britney Spears

Not everyone knows that global pop icon Britney Spears is more than just a performer; she is also a dedicated philanthropist. Throughout her career, Britney has supported countless charitable causes, including helping children battling cancer. Inspired by her generosity, Pinoys Heart Britney, a Philippine-based fan community, has made it their mission to emulate her philanthropic spirit. On December 17, 2017, I was honored to join and document one of their meaningful endeavors—a charity event aptly named “Why Don’t You Do Something?”

The event, held during the Christmas season, focused on spreading love and kindness to the street children of Roxas Boulevard in Malate, Manila. Volunteers gathered donations in the form of used clothes, books, second-hand toys, and food to distribute to the less fortunate. For the first time, the event, which had previously been exclusive to Cebu, extended its reach to Luzon, bringing together fans and volunteers united by a common goal: to make a difference.

A Community Effort Inspired by a Shared Idol

Organizing the charity program was no small feat. According to William Pombo, an active member of Pinoys Heart Britney, the group worked tirelessly to gather donations from its members. Some contributed financially, others offered their time and effort, while still others donated items to be distributed. The collaboration reflected the inclusive and giving nature of the fanbase, mirroring Britney Spears’ own compassion.

“This is actually our fifth year, but our first four years were only held in Cebu City. Indeed, it is our first year to execute such a charitable program here in Luzon,” Pombo shared with pride.

Challenges on Roxas Boulevard

The volunteers walked along Roxas Boulevard, specifically the Baywalk and Pedro Gil Street areas, handing out goods to the children. However, the reality of the streets presented unforeseen challenges. Some street peddlers, under the influence of solvents, harassed the group, forcibly snatching some of the items meant for the children. Despite these setbacks, the volunteers persevered, focusing on their mission to bring joy to those in need.

“We can no longer control the scenario nor change it; this is really the situation of Roxas Blvd. We already did our part. However, the important thing is the spirit and thought of giving this Christmas that somehow touches their lives, and I’m pretty sure they’ll also pay it forward to other people,” Pombo expressed emotionally.

A Legacy of Giving

Despite the challenges faced during the Manila leg of the event, the Pinoys Heart Britney Cebu Chapter simultaneously held its own version of the program, successfully distributing goods to those in need. The simultaneous execution of the event across different regions underscored the community's commitment to making a broader impact.

A Call to Action

This event is a powerful reminder that giving, no matter how small, can create a ripple effect of kindness and hope. Inspired by Britney Spears’ philanthropic endeavors, the Pinoys Heart Britney community exemplifies how fandom can transcend entertainment and become a force for good.

As we reflect on the meaning of the Christmas season, let us take a page from their book. Why don’t we do something? Whether through small acts of kindness or grand gestures of generosity, we all have the power to make the world a better place, one selfless act at a time.

#YTVPH Group Promotes a Sense of Belongingness on their Successful Year-End Party.

Sense of Belongingness is one of the reasons why we joined a group. Do you still remember the time that you joined in a club during your college or high school days? It was because you considered that group a haven where you can execute your passion.

On December 10,2017. A facebook group of Pinoy Content Creators named Youtube Vloggers Philippines (#YTVPH) organized a year-end party held at The Regency Hotel, Meralco Avenue, Ortigas, and Pasig City. The party has an entrance fee which was amounting to PHP 400 for all professionals and working creators while only PHP250 for students; and the said event was participated by numerous aspiring Content Creators in the country. Indeed, when I said “aspiring” – it means they’re small time youtubers who are passionately creating awesome videos and uploading it in the social media.

“The good thing with - Small time youtubers with zero to thousands subscribers-, we helped each other to grow. I can see how they started and how they became confident on their craft” said Gab Jornacion, one of the proponents of the event.

The party lasted for four hours with full of performances from the talented youtubers – violinist, guitarist and singer. There were raffles and giveaways from different sponsors and I was lucky to get a 3D-2N free travel to Ilocos . Moreover, foods and drinks were served right at the start of the party. The highlight of the said event happened on the last part wherein I had to meet the content creators and mingle with them. It was undeniably cool seeing everyone’s talking to their own camera.

 I can feel the sense of belongingness – all of them were crazy.

🎥 How I Spent My Weekend as a Youtuber and a Full-Time Employee?

Hi Tansyong Lovers*, in this #vlog of mine; I am trying to document my busy weekend. It was November 11, 2017 when my Saturday had a fully loaded schedule. In fact, my “OUT” from work was 6AM on Saturday as I had my regular night-shift on Friday from 9PM to 6AM. I arrived home at 7AM and took a power nap for 2 hours. I had to wake up at 9:00 AM since I have a breakfast with my office-mate.  Then went back home after breakfast to take another sleep for two hours, woke up at 12NN to prepare for Film-making Workshop.

I left home early at 12:30 PM and arrived in Cubao at 1PM. I have to wait another one hour in Cubao – “tagal kasi ng inaantay ko na co-youtuber na si Jeyps”.

“Sa sobrang late niya, nauna na lang ako sa UP town center, wherein dun gaganapin ang workshop with Direk Bani Logronio” .

I didn’t expect ang traffic pala sa Tandang Sora A.K.A Katipunan. I arrived at the Workshop 30 minutes before matapos. Actually, one thing I’ve learned from the workshop – do not wait for someone who will surely arrive late; instead mauna nalang. 

After the workshop, (actually meet and greet ang nangyare dahil di ako umabot sa discussion) then I have to go to McKinley Hills for a 2-hour gym session. Subsequently, went to Paranaque for a Dance Practice and headed back to McKinley Hills to grab a bite and went back home.

Honestly speaking, this content is my first attempt to #vlog my life in a whole day setting. It wasn’t easy, yet very fulfilling because while editing – then I’d realize I was able to accomplish a lot of things within a day. In addition to that, I was also able vlog it.

Watch the video below and tell me kung may time pa ba ako mag JOWA. WTF, I even don’t have time to shave my facial hair, magjowa pa kaya. Time management is the key pero kawawa naman katawan ko niyan. HAHAHA!

Thanks for watching Tansyong Lovers, I hope you enjoyed it.

Travel fitness: Tips on Packing, clothes, and gear

Advertisement by Google:

First things first, what luggage are you taking? You will need to decide whether you're choosing rolling luggage or a backpack. Of course, if your plan is to go backpacking the latter is the best choice for you. Otherwise, rolling luggage is a great plan as it's easy to get around with. You can choose one small enough to take as hand luggage or opt for something larger for longer trips. For the shorter trips, though, you may want to consider a traditional backpack as it will help you limit your packing.

Packing

With a bit of planning and organisation, the sky really is the limit when it comes to packing smart.

This is a time to be ruthless because not everything can come. Think about what items you can easily buy when you arrive at your destination, what items will likely be available where you are staying, and what you can't possibly live without for your time away. This should make the decision process a bit simpler.

Socks can be slipped into shoes; you can roll clothes within clothes. There are plenty of innovative ways to get everything in there. You should be able to balance your needs with your wants between your checked luggage and hand luggage. Remember to keep any valuables with you on the plane, though you should avoid travelling with anything too valuable.

Clothing

Before you can pack a single item of clothing (well, beyond undergarments and socks) you need to check the weather for your chosen destination. If you will be travelling to multiple places then you'll need to check the weather for each place to be sure you are covered for every eventuality. It's a good idea to invest in rain clothing so that you can throw it over your clothes and not worry about getting saturated while out and about.

Chinos are a great option because they wear well, are easy to mix and match with outfits, and are lighter in comparison to jeans. So, consider a few pairs of chinos and bring extra tops so you can easily mix and match as required. Another important thing to consider is outerwear like sweaters. Rather than packing lots of heavy items, layering up is easier so bring lighter items and wear multiples if the weather dictates.

When it comes to shoes try to limit this as they get heavy. You'll want comfortable shoes for walking, a nicer pair of shoes for any dinners you have planned, and a spare pair for any other eventuality (for sunny destinations this is likely flip flops or sandals).

Don't forget gloves, a scarf, and an umbrella if it's going to be cold on your travels. You may also want to consider thicker socks for this type of trick.

Gear

The most important thing for anyone these days - chargers! Whether it's laptops, phones or tablets – you need to make sure those (and their chargers) are packed handy so you can easily grab them when you need them. Ideally, those are for your hand luggage and most airports now offer ports in the lounges.

Now, don't forget your toiletries. If you aren't checking any luggage you will need to keep your liquids separate from the rest as they have to be produced at security. So, bear that in mind as you are packing. Luckily, you are now allowed to take a razor on the aeroplane, so you don't need to worry about that. You should also pack a spare, empty bag to keep your dirty laundry in. You may have access to laundry facilities and you may not, so you should be prepared for that. Don't be afraid to hand wash some items in the hotel sink, though.

If you're going backpacking then there are other things to consider, such as maps, guides, long-life snacks, and water bottles. This is a real test of your creative packing skills as you are working with much less space, but will likely be on a longer trip. Think about what you will really need to get through your trip and strip everything back to the basics. You can hand wash clothing as you travel and re-wear many items multiple times.


There's a great wide world out there and it's just waiting for you to explore it, so what are you waiting for? Make sure you check out the incredible Holiday deals @ Booking.com, why not get your next trip at a bargain-basement price?

Dance To Express; Not To Impress. Dance From The Soul; Not Just From The Choreography.

It has been many years guys na di na ako sumayaw. As far as I remember, the last time that I compete in a dance battle was way-back in my college days. Indeed, I am already 30 years old now, so basically that was almost 10 years ago. But the burning passion is still in my soul specially ng sumali ako sa nakaraang STOMP Dance battle November 19, 2017 sa The Blue Leaf Cosmopolitan.

Undeniably, tumanda na nga ako pero the feeling when I heard the shout of the massive audience, the lights, the smoke and the beat of the music – it seemed that It was not a competition to me. Hence, It was like a time travel back to my younger days, those moments when I simultaneously went to school and accept dancing tutorial for an extra cash (for my allowance). I really love dancing, but when I entered to the real world – I just realized that my passion in dancing cannot subsidy my expenses .And so, I let go my passion and continue working as to what is really requisite in survival.

However, no matter how you let go and set aside your passion, it is already grass-rooted deep within – whenever an opportunity comes, it will just come out naturally. Honestly, nung sumayaw ako nito , never ko inisip na mananalo ako, ang tanging gusto ko lang maramdaman ko ulit ang feeling na nararamdaman ko 10 years ago.

With that being said, it just happened.  I savoured every beat of the music, I enjoyed the two minutes dance routine and I traveled back to where I started – a Young Jonathan Orbuda who was dreaming originally to be a professional dancer.
“How I wish, my past Grandparents witness me how I enjoyed what I did.”

“I am pretty sure, they’re proud of me”.

WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW:

Sad part; when the music ended, it was time for me to go back to the reality. I have to go back to my 30 years old persona and leave my college memories in the history. Yet when the time I become older, I’ll surely enjoy reminiscing it while sitting on my rocking chair.

Is Dental Brace Made Intentionally For Fashion?

Advertisement by Google:

It has been a year since I started the process of having a dental brace. My first and initial reason was to be tagged as “SOSHAL” since that’s what the majority says – when you’re wearing braces, somewhat you’re capable of purchasing one as the price is quite Imeldific.

I went to a clinic situated along Boni Avenue; Mandaluyong City named Oral Wellness Dental Clinic. Dr. Chua – the dentist advised me that there are crowded teeth on the lower part and on my upper part, there is a misalignment of the two front teeth. “Nahalata ko” (I noticed) it every time I looked at it in the mirror.  In addition to that, I really have poor oral hygiene since I am too busy to allocate enough time to clean my teeth after I grabbed a bite. To sum it up, I am qualified to undergo such a procedure given that there is really needs to be corrected.

On my first week of wearing the brace, it was so tight, it was painful, it was uncomfortable and truly, I lost my appetite. So, therefore, it was a sacrifice. “Tiis Ganda”!

Dr. Chua said, “Braces is not for fashion, it is for medical purposes.”

“There are patients that after we installed the brackets, they will no longer come back assuming that it is okay to wear it for a long span of time - for fashion reason. “He added.

“We only limit the patients of wearing braces up to two years, and if not, there is something wrong with the procedures and we need to do something about it.”

“Some patients buy their own brackets and just watch DIY videos online. It is a big NO, since there is an appropriate measure in every tooth. Patronizing this approach may lead them to a serious case on the later part”

Indeed, my adherence to visiting my dentist for the adjustment is very strict. I made sure to go back to the clinic regularly so the Doctor can double-check if there is a movement of my teeth.  Having a brace is not a joke, aside from the expenses, allotting time for the visit; I also experienced numerous mouth sores.  That pain is will not justify for you to get a brace for fashion only.



October 23, 2017, I became free. Dr. Chua removed my braces as the result was very fast and successful. I got now a perfect smile and bite. However, I have two missing molars on upper part and one on my lower part – both missing teeth – I asked the dentist what are my options.

Watch the video below as Dr. Mike Chua explained the various options whenever I’m ready to avail the dentures He discussed it...

October 28, 2017. I went back to the clinic to pick up my retainer. A retainer is requisite and essential to wear after the removal of the braces to retain the corrected alignment of the teeth. It will take another year or so – for you to wear it regularly.

Meanwhile, do you still remember when I published a blog about my experience towards Oral Wellness Dental Clinic? I wrote it from my heart and from what I personally experienced without sugar-coating. I didn’t know that it became an avenue for my readers to consider visiting this clinic. I just know it when Dr. Chua personally told me and he gave thanks to me for the positive feedback.

“My patients told me that they discovered the clinic through your blog.” Dr. Chua said.

“You deserved it Doc. Indeed, my readers also deserve to know and to experience what I personally experienced” I answered.

Surprisingly, Dr. Chua gave me the retainer for free and they even included the dentures for free.

“I am giving this for free as you blogged us, you don’t need to do something for us in return. This is an early Christmas gift to you. We read your article and it was genuine “.

#PubertyChallenge is not Just a Challenge, It has a Deeper Impact.

Advertisement by Google:

Taking a glance at your old pictures of your childhood may be the best subject of laughter with your friends; those awkward pictures wherein you look so much different and awful than today. Some of us, we even tend to hide and never show those pictures to anybody assuming that it will just embarrass us.

Puberty may be the toughest stage –e.g. rapid development of your physical attributes, a dramatic increase of hormones, heavy loads both in school and at home, and personal problems. Indeed, it is a stage of “Make or Break”, are you gonna make it?

Recently, due to the rise of social media in which we can easily share our stories online, #PUBERTYChallenge became trending among netizens. This is a challenge that online people are encouraged to post their before and after photos highlighting their adolescence stage versus their current pictures.  Truly, it was a challenge since it is extremely difficult to brag your most unpleasant photos online and show how you became visually pleasant as time goes.

Honestly, #PubertyChallenge means a lot to me. It is a way for me to look back on my past, how I started to dream and how I did the move to reach those things that I dreamt about. And now, I am already 30 years old and when I look at those old pictures, I can see Jonathan Orbuda – who used to strive. It reminds me that I need to be grateful for what I have and who I am today.

Undeniably, we always complain about the difficulties we’re currently experiencing, to the point that we forgot to remember those days we started to build our dreams.  We focus on the negative sides saying “Ang Hirap naman ng Buhay” but if you take a look at your old pictures; can you still evaluate yourself today? Where are you at today in comparison to your old pictures? Are you really living with difficulties today or you’re just not being grateful? Try to take a look at your old pictures and compare it with your pictures today – do you see any growth and development? If none, then I must say, you have the right to complain and not to be grateful.

Last week, I created the #PubertyChallenge Contest. Below are the photos of who took the #PubertyChallenge.

The winner is ANA RICA CUNANAN– she will receive a limited Youtube Sunglasses from “I Love Tansyong TV”

Thanks to all who joined.
