THERE'S somethin' about Ms. Ellen Hernandez everyone…mmm, I mean everyone in the world of visual arts must recognize. Accidentally, we bumped into each other's deepness in the open spacious web, and the rest is history. Ms. Hernandez not only the newest supporter of our wacky and friendly Sunday program, not only our dear friend and former Pinoy overseas worker, but, happens to be the charming and very artistic daughter of the great Filipino art master - the late Jose Hernandez.

So, there's something about Ellen, Pinoy should be proud of, her great father Jose Hernandez, known in the whole world as Fernando Amorsolo's great learner have also his own distinct style, his forte of fiesta and fluvials make Jose Hernandez a master of his own distinction. We are so very proud we have Ms. Ellen Hernandez not only she is the heir apparent of his father's awe-inspiring greatness but we are really pleased because we have Ellen as one of our dearest friend and as well as inspiring cohorts and fellow piscean. Nonetheless, why there's really somethin' about Ms. Ellen Hernandez? Amidst all of the overwhelming prominence and mammothed recognition from her dearest father, Ms. Ellen Hernandez is still with her feet on the ground supporting fellow artists as well as inspiring others.

CONFESSION OF A TRUE HOUSEHUSBAND

Base Of Operations

IT’S Sunday once again and I need to reorganize things intended for the day before the coming moment that will take place more significantly. She’s miles away and I’m standing all alone here waging war against stressing work she left behind. Its really a hard-hitting day for us husband all alone in the house with a 4-year old super-kulit son and an extra-cute months-old baby without our precious loved one sweating domestic works overseas to patch more of the financial condition of the family. ‘Ika nga pare kong brod mahirap maging tatay na nanay, got to do your best shot or be a superhero you can for the kids.
            Not to mention doing the laundries, cleaning the house, cooking for my son and of course the macho tasks in palengke, ang tumawad-tawad para makatipid. Needless to say, in the house chore is the most macho thing to do, ang magpa-suso.  It’s good thing they invented bottles, or else I let someone to do it for my baby, sino kaya? Perhaps, I should tell my wife to remit more cash in order for me to look for someone to do the breast milking for our baby. Probably, I’ll post a Sunday ad looking for a perfect someone with tasty milk that will go well with my baby’s pihikan taste. One thing more importantly, she should possess good morals, stupendous personality and of course, she must be fine-looking, bahala na kung mag-selos si kumander, after all it’s all for the sake of our baby’s wellness and goodness.
            At any rate, I need to take our little and cutey angel to her babysitter before we go together with my makulit to the nearest PC rental shop for a tube date with his mom through web. Over again, its fine thing they invented internet, we husband have the chance to see how still gorgeous our dear ones, even though miles away we can still put across our sweetness and caring. If you want you can make it more special like bringing flowers and gifts. Or perhaps hire someone who can do harana for your wife. Never mind the jologs that will really chuckle-to-death when you accomplish it for your only one, at least you just express how special her day is, a birthday greeting miles away. Kaya naman, next time try to acquire a PC for yourself so you can carry out whatsoever you want in private, at hindi na naka-broadcast outside, para ka tuloy jologs.

Fool To Cry
           
AT this moment, I’m all alone once again, in an barren room for me missing and thinkin’ of my courageous other half battling homesickness and of course aloneness with her cherished ones. Isn’t it heroic for other Pinays who have the same situation similar to us?
      ‘Ba, ‘di biro ang malayo sa mahal mo sa buhay, but the consideration of course, mapapabuti naman ang financial status of the family. Kaya naman, I have the right to say, that both of us can be consider heroes, am I right? I supposedly, dahil pareho kaming nagsasa-sacrifice. Kaya kayong mga househusbands out there, be proud mga p’re kong tatay na nanay, ‘ika nga pa-konswelo na lang sa ating pag-iisa, if I know tears are about to fall if you really miss your precious ones in a distant country. At any rate, ang isipin mo na lang, that your partner is so lucky out there. Imagine she can afford to buy signatured clothes, while us here can only afford signatured clothes sa ukay-ukay nga lang.
      Imagine her dining with authentic Chinese cuisine, the appetizing dimsum, the delectable hot pot shabu-shabu, while us here are fine with the instant noodles flavored with bits of veggies bought for only 10 bucks a plastic and of course some kikiam. Kasi nga, austerity programs are on the rise. We both need to have an extensive savings for the children, kaya nga she’s out there doing something significantly nice ‘di ba? And more, we need to purchase for our own PC, para naman ‘di me magmukha jologs when she needs to see her dear and beloved ones, buti na lang may-chat.
