When asked last Sunday in the THE BUZZ about who’s better looking between the two members of the F4, Kris Aquino answered that Joey Marquez looks better than anybody. She delivered this with a smile and a twinkle in her eyes…clearly a sign of a romantic love, if not sexual. I laughed at her and called her blind. Since in my opinion, those members of the F4 were much, much better looking than Joey Marquez.

And then… I saw Kris Aquino being interviewed yesterday in TV Patrol.

I do not know what really happened between the two of them in that room. No body knows since they were the only ones inside and who can say what really took place. We could only speculate, and hear their sides of the story, their realness and their fabrications. But for whatever it is worth, I pity her.

Imagine Kris Aquino, not being “Kris Aquino” and Joey Marquez, not being “Joey Marquez”. Without fame and fortune. Imagine her being a simple woman, whom you can brush elbows with in the streets. The same goes with him. And then suddenly you hear the same predicament. Would you still like/love him? I won’t. With what happened to them, the boundary goes beyond show business, it goes straight to the gate of human rights, particularly Women's Human Rights.

As a person, it is normal to be in love, to get jealous, to be angry, and to feel pain. But as far as I know, it is not normal to degrade a person up to the point that he/she will lose his/her self-respect. And beyond doubt it is not normal to point a gun, a loaded gun, to anybody just because you are angry, for next time (and I quote) “It would be easier for him (her) to pull the trigger...”

Joy is not the absence of suffering; it is the presence of God.

For God Himself works in our souls, in the deepest depths, taking increasing control as we are progressively willing to be prepared for his wonder.

1. Is the name you have now the same name that's on your birth certificate? If not, what's changed?
yup-yup :)

2. If you could change your name (first, middle and/or last), what would it be?
From a simple: Guada B. Ramos
To: Maria Guadalupe B. Ramos

3. Why were you named what you were? (Is there a story behind it? Who specifically was responsible for naming you?)
My grandfather (the dad of my father) and I have the same birth date, December 12, which also happens to be the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. They told me that it was really supposed to be Guadalupe but my grandmother (the mom of my mother) objected to so i ended up having only the first half, the Guada part. While my grandfather carried the second half, which is Lope.

4.Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why?
LOVE:
Name:
Maria Helen, Maria Beatrice, Maria Elena/Elenita, Maria Guadalupe, Rhodora Ramonette, Rosa Asuncion, Erick/Enrico, Jose Leandro, Ricardo, or anything that sounds Spanish

HATE:
Name:

Michelle, Grace, Mark
very common. I know at least 5 girls who’s name is “Michelle.” same goes with “Grace.” Same reason with the name Michelle and Grace. I can identify more than 5 individuals with that name, including my boyfriend :)

Kristine
When I was in high school, Kristine is synonymous with bitch.

Anna
common name attachment

5. Is the analysis of your name at kabalarians.com / triggur.org / astroexpert accurate? How or how isn't it?

From kabalarians.com:

Brief Analysis
The name of Guada creates an overly-sensitive nature which causes you to sense and feel far more than you can understand or put into words. You have a deep, artistic, and creative side, which shows through a love for music and literature. Writing is a more natural mode of expression for your deeper thoughts and feelings than the spoken word. You have an ability to concentrate and work intently on anything, which holds your interest. However, you prefer to avoid routine, monotony, and mental tasks. You enjoy the out-of-doors and find your greatest peace and relaxation from the beauty and harmony of nature. You prefer to limit your friendships and associations to those who share your interests and appreciate your quiet, refined ways. Others often find it difficult to understand you. Your feelings tend to build up within you and, if you cannot release them through a creative, constructive channel, you could suffer with frustration, moods, and much inner turmoil.

more acceptable than my name description in triggur.org. while I cannot understand the astroexpert description.

We can walk without fear, full of hope, courage and strengths… waiting for the endless good, which God is always giving as fast as He can get us to take it in.
