A Gay Christmas, Everyone!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

image

It's 1:56 AM of December 25, 2011 and I have just finished wrapping gifts. Ran out of paper, actually. Three more to wrap.

Personally, I haven't really felt the spirit of the season until yesterday (Dec.24) afternoon when my two call center agent nieces arrived, one with a new dining room light, and started busying themselves at the kitchen for Noche Buena.

I wasn't even the one who bought the gifts I wrapped. I just gave money to my niece last Thursday when I learned she's going to Divisoria. Well, except for the three gifts I haven't wrapped. I bought them last Friday at Festival Mall in Alabang. My nephews, 14 and 11, dragged me to the mall for their gifts, which they wanted to pick themselves. The 14-year-old bought 2 pairs of jeans and the 11-year-old picked a book at National Bookstore titled Drawing Anatomy.

Middle school and he already knows what he wants. He was 7 when he decided to be a doctor. 8 when he decided he wanted to be a gastroenterologist. He had been reading medical books since then but was complaining for the lack of gastroenterology books in bookstores.

He kinda "shifted" to pulmo last summer due to the availability of reading materials but came back to gastro because he had been studying it "for so long."

Anyway, I'm making this post with a very chaotic background music – a group of men singing accompanied by electric guitar two houses away, videokes (perhaps 3 or 4) from I cannot tell where, and firecrackers making my 3 dogs jump every so often.

My mom's quietly sleeping in her room. She just waited for 12 midnight so we could greet each other a "Merry Christmas!"

My older niece has left early for her 9 PM shift. Reason why we had our Noche Buena at dinner time. They cooked stuff but they were for the visitors tomorrow. We just had Chowking delivered for our "Noche Buena."

That pretty sums up my Christmas Eve. Didn't receive much greetings on my phone, though. But a lot on my Facebook inbox (my wall is restricted to "only me" for sanity purposes).

I haven't psyched myself up for tomorrow's chaos, actually. Mom said we're expecting some 30 to 35 visitors. I just hope they won't come all together in one time because we don't have maid tomorrow. We told her take the day off as well as on New Year's Day (we're mabait like that lol).

Anyway, I can feel sleep coming. I just wrap this up.

Again, Merry Christmas, everyone!

P.S.
The men are currently singing Katy Perry's Firework. Haha! Makes me wonder, are they one of us?

What Do You Want For Christmas?

Andrew Christian greets us Happy Holidays with this video of "Sexy Santa and the Andrew Christian Doll Factory."

If the dolls I get at Christmas are as sexy and as "big" as these, I wouldn't mind spending Christmas every single day.

But perhaps Santa could take me away and bring me to help at the Doll Factory all year round.

Of course, I would like to be patriotic and say Philippines' Fhrancis Lopez is my bet. He was so sexy in the Attitude magazine photo shoot he did with four other contestants.

But then I also find these men sexy:

Mr. Philippines in Attitude Magazine Photoshoot

Fhrancis Oliver Lopez, the Philippine representative to the Mister International 2011 pageant, was among the lucky four chosen to do a photoshoot for Attitude Thailand's January 2012 issue.

He looks... yum!

There are 34 contestants. I'm sure the mag (that caters to gay and female readers) saw something in Fhrancis. The other 3 were Jisung Oh of Korea, Zan Cvet of Slovenia and Steven Yoswara of Indonesia.

Mister International 2011 pageant will be held on December 17 in Bangkok, Thailand.

Both covers are beautiful and I can't seem to choose. Can I have them both? LoL!

Are You Dickmatized?

Gay Pimp Jonny McGovern's "Dickmatized" music video is so full of bulges. And if there's such a head case as dickmatized, I'm kinda sure I have one. LoL!

Watch the oh-so-gay music video below.

This music video was directed by Michael Serrato. The song was written by Jonny McGovern himself and produced by Adam Joseph.

"Dickmatized" is from Jonny McGovern's upcoming album, "The Gayest of All Time." The

Shirtless A&F Models in Singapore

Abercrombie & Fitch has the hunkiest and most good looking models. But the brand has a reputation for being racist.

Anyway, a new A&F flagship store is opening in Orchard Road, Singapore this week. In line with that, A&F models from USA, France, Denmark and Spain paraded shirtless outside the store.

Notice the racial diversity of the models. Asians!

Jonah Mowry

I have experienced bullying even before I entered pre-school. But, I'm sure all gay men out there would agree, bullying gets worse inside the campus. And perhaps that's the reason why all of us try to excel in our own little way, to show them bullies that we are better than them.

Honestly, I still get bullied every now and then. But having a support group, in my case my mom and nieces, makes a big difference.

I came across this video of an incoming 8th grader. It made me cry, as instances of bullying especially in high school replayed on my mind.
