For almost 7 years, AliwanAvenue tries to uncover gems before they are polished.  Almost anonymous souls who glitter in the darkness of the backyard of mainstream showbiz.

MARCIA ADAMS’ RESTAURANT : COMFORT FOOD OVERLOAD!

MARCIA ADAMS and Xixi Maturan

It wasn’t all that holy in Tagaytay City during the week that should have been.  All roads seemed to trek through the ridge and into places unknown in herds as if no one cared.

‘PORNIE’ : INDIE PORN ON THE RISE!

TANGKILIKIN ANG PORNONG PINOY!

Let’s face it, we are all ugly prudes when we deal with sex.  There always is this malicious streak about two people locked in intimacy whether hetero o homoebic.

The immediate long weekend brought us all to a sacred stupor with the rest of our being physiologically edging right out into the nothingness of everything.

KONTING PAGTITIKA SA PANAHON NG KWARESMA

I guess I’ve said enough… and the concept remains unchanged so here it is again!

Aliwan Avenue

Mas magaan ang buhay ko ngayon.  Not just in terms of comfortable living but spiritually as well.  Kaya hinahayaan ko na lang ang ilang mga kakilala na tuklasin nila sa kanilang sarili ang dapat kalagyan ng kanilang mga sarili sa masalimuot na mundong ito.  Natutuwa rin ako sa mga taong halos hindi na inaalintana ang anumang makaritwal na pananampalatayang nakabalot sa maraming sekta at kultong nakapalibot sa kanila.

Yes, TIKA is the word.  TIKA as in mag-introspect at sisiirin ang kalalimlalimang himaymay ng ating mga katinuan kung TAMA bang ang TAMA ay hindi dapat mabahiran ng MALI at hanapan ng lugar at katuturan ang MALI sa bawa’t itinaTAMAng MALI… at higit sa lahat ang pagtamasa ng kasiyahang matatamo sa bawa’t MALIng itaTAMA sa panahon ng PAGMUMUNI-MUNI at…

Rey ‘PJ’ Abellana was a college crush.  I would secretly watch ‘AnnaLiza’ just to get a glimpse of him and my whole week is done. As a matter of fact, I searched far and wide just to find a common mortal who looked like him.

I was all beside myself chancing upon the trailer of  Vhong Navarro’s post-mauling film ‘DA POSSESSED’ ; all myself reeling from not having a fit to see the oh-so-familiar look of Jim Carrey in  ‘Dumb & Dumber’ , released in 1994.
