Mr. Pogi Winners Jaylord Casino and John Edric Ulang Life Story in "Magpakailanman"

Watch Mr. Pogi Winners Jaylord Casino and John Edric Ulang Life Story in "Magpakailanman".

This Saturday, GMA's reality-based drama anthology program hosted by Ms. Mel Tiangco, "Magpakailanman," will feature the lives of Jaylord Casino and John Edric Ulang, winners of Eat Bulaga's "Mr. Pogi" contest.

Just like most aspirants who want to enter show business, Jaylord and John Edric have always dreamed of becoming popular stars one day and they saw showbiz as a way out of poverty.

Although they both reached the same juncture in their journey, they came from very different worlds. 


Jaylord was never an achiever in school. Despite the efforts exerted by his parents to give him a good education, he just couldn't meet their expectations. He grew up feeling the burden of being his parents' biggest disappointment but he figured that there must be something special about him that could make his parents proud. One day, a friend approached him and encouraged him to audition for "Mr. Pogi," a competition for male wanna-be TV stars hosted by the longest running noontime show, "Eat Bulaga."

Jaylord was confident that he has got the looks, charm and talent to win the title. However, his parents are not as optimistic. Besides, this is not how they have envisioned their son to succeed in life.

Meanwhile, family is not a problem for another Mr. Pogi winner John Edric. From the very beginning he has always shown the makings of a star and his parents, especially his dad, have always been supportive of his plans. Unfortunately, John Edric's ambition of entering show business came to a halt when he unexpectedly impregnated his girlfriend, Michelle.

Consequently, John Edric's focus shifted from pursuing his dream career to providing for his own family. He thought he would never catch up on his dream until the opportunity to audition for "Mr. Pogi" came one day. He grabbed the chance and the rest is history, so to speak.

Inspiring speech by Bill Gates on Harvard Commencement

I always wanted to share this inspiring speech by Mr. Bill Gates. This speech is worth reading over and again. (I just can't remember how many times i read it myself). I received this thru e-mail which was sent to me by a good friend.  Harvard Commencement (Text as prepared for delivery) President Bok, former President Rudenstine, incoming President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members of the faculty, parents, and especially, the graduates: I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you I’d come back and get my degree.” I want to thank Harvard for this timely honor. I’ll be changing my job next year … and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume. I applaud the graduates today for taking a much more direct route to your degrees. For my part, I’m just happy that the Crimson has called me “Harvard’s most successful dropout.” I guess that makes me valedictorian of my own special class … I did the b...

TikTok Viewer Job gone viral

I have posted a story about the company offering a Tiktok Viewer job that has gone viral. Is there such job posting as Tiktok viewer? How much is the salary being a TikTok Viewer? I received a message on my "Whatsapp" account asking me if I can be a TikTok viewer and work from home with good remuneration. She said she got my number from Linkedin  and/or Jobstreet. When I accepted the job offer, I was unsure if it was legit. I heard about some home-based typing jobs and think that it might be a valid job since the recruiter told me he is working in a particular company, which I  "Google" and saw a legit Website. To register for the job you just need to send them your name, age and mobile number. After accepting my registration they sent P100 pesos to my GCash number as a sign-up bonus. The so-called "The Manager" asked me to install Telegraph apps and joined me in a group chat. There, The Manager" will send a task like Task No. 3 with the link to the T...

I got a TikTok Viewer Job Offer from Skyrocket Studio Ph- Scam or Not?

Earlier today, I got a message on my Whatsapp and telling me to become a TikTok Viewer with an attractive salary and commission. The message says it's a part-time job and I can work from Home. Legit or not? So I ask the sender who he/she is and how did she manage to get my Whatsapp number. She told me she was from Skyrocket Studio Ph  and she got my number from Whatsapp, Linkedin and/or Telegram. She's not sure actually where she got my number. Then I took to Google and search for the said company and saw a legit website: "We are a fresh, dynamic group of caffeine-fueled individuals inspired to deliver results through smart solutions.
