Remember my post last month about bugging Kris Aquino through e-mail, fax and snail mail asking her to join Twitter? Well, guess what? Kris Aquino is finally on Twitter and also Facebook!

My prayers have been answered! This isn’t just another poser! She announced on her show SNN: Showbiz News Ngayon about her Twitter and Facebook so I’m pretty sure that this is the real deal. During her announcement, I hyperventilated. Seriously. I rushed to my laptop and followed her in a heartbeat.

FINALLY, Kris Aquino is on Twitter (<strong>@iamkrisaquino</strong>).

FINALLY, Kris Aquino is on Twitter (@iamkrisaquino).

I am not so sure if she received the letters that I’ve sent her. Well, I hope she did. Anyway, for as long as she’s on Twitter, I’ll be fine. Kris said that she’ll start posting regular updates on her Twitter account starting this Saturday, September 26, 2009. I can’t wait to @ reply to her tweets.

I hope Kris Aquino follows me soon.

I’m sorry if I’ve been raving about Kris Aquino in the past few posts here. It’s just that I’m really a Kris Aquino fan. I know that you’ll follow her on Twitter, too! HEHE.

Last week, I did something that I might regret doing in the future (or not). Well, it depends. If Kris Aquino would start using Twitter then, I might not regret it. But, if my efforts would lead to nothing, then I might regret doing it in the first place.

Ok, enough.

I sent a fan mail to Kris Aquino!

Fanmail for Kris Aquino

Fanmail for Kris Aquino

Yes, you read it right! I sent a fan mail to Kris Aquino, the actress / TV host / daughter of Former President Aquino / wife of basketball player James Aquino / mother of Josh and Baby James! I’ve been a Kris Aquino fan since time immemorial. But, I’m not that vocal in saying so because I fear getting stoned for being a Kris Aquino fan (of course, I’m kidding!).

Since the “Twitter bug” have hit famous personalities, I’ve been wishing (yes, wishing! LOL!) that Kris would join/use Twitter as well. She’s fond of sharing “too much information” and I love her for that! I would really love to read her updates and @ reply to her tweets every single day.

So, I’m really desperate to have Kris Aquino on my Twitter “following list.” What I did exactly is write a letter telling her all about Twitter and the wonders of using it. I sent the letter via e-mail, fax, and of course, via snail mail. In short, I bombarded the K! Magazine office with the same letter. Sorry for being stalker-ish. I don’t know whether I should be proud in doing that or not. But, I’m sorry. I’m really *that* desperate. I know some day, other Kris Aquino fans would thank me for doing so. Hahaha!

I hope I didn’t scare anyone. Kris Aquino, please join Twitter NOW NA!

For the past few weeks, I’ve been busy working on my latest web project, Brink Notes Entertainment Daily. If you’ve heard about it already then GREAT if not, go ahead, and check out the site.

Brink Notes Entertainment Daily is obviously, an entertainment news website that aims to give the latest Philippine entertainment news as well as foreign entertainment news. Aside from putting up articles, photos, and videos daily, I also produce podcasts from Mondays through Fridays for the site. So, if you want your entertainment news to be delivered in audio format, I suggest that you subscribe to the BED Podcast via iTunes.

Let me know what you think about Brink Notes Entertainment Daily, drop me a line at jeric.pena [at] brinknotes.net.

I currently have two more pending web projects – first is the website of our church, and the second one is still a secret. It’s great that I still have a short break from school despite my decision to take summer classes. This short break gives me time to work on things I love to do. Summer classes start after Holy Week.

By the way, Holy Week is fast approaching and I’m not sure if mom has plans to go out-of-own or whatever. May you have a meaningful Holy Week!
