A VRS* has informed us that the original inspiration for the “Forevermore” video was a serious crisis that occurred during the filming of Nandito Ako….

* “VRS” stands for “Very Reliable Source,” and we don’t actually have any of those.
… there’s a shocking employment situation going on and something needs to be done about it. Yes, that’s right. I’m talking about the lovely ms. @pinantonio.
She would NEVER complain so I feel it’s up to me to make her plight public. Consider this an expose of the unbearable working conditions she puts up with. I don’t know how she holds it together, tbh.
Just recently she had to do this ALL DAY LONG!!!
…. and this….
… not to mention, working so close to scorching hot … lights
…and then there was overtime!!!
On top of all that, she had to take work home!!!
And put up with celebrities and camera crews for music video shoots ….
… and listen to all that singing….
… and lounging all over the furniture…
… and taking over her car….
My heart breaks for her. She so deserves a raise.
P.S.
Another BTS Bench shoot vid… LOOOVE that they used Elevator!
I don’t know if it’s because it’s Holy Week, or just emotions bubbling up after David’s “not goodbye” vlog, but I’ve been feeling incredibly grateful lately. Which beats sadness, any day, believe me, so I’m also grateful for that.
And it hit me that since all the Nandito Ako fun lasted pretty much right up until David leaving and the release of the Forevermore CD, that I never posted the huge, huge thank you message that I meant to send out to, well, everyone in the Philippines.
Not just for these amazing past few months on an NA-high but for the four solid years of David support that have kept him on the charts –and in fans’ hearts — there. For being the warm, music-loving people they are. For making David feel so welcome and inspired that he stayed extra-long to film Vangie vids, music vids, do the Bench shoot and event, and record a whole flippin’ album that we never expected to get!!!!!
From the moment the Nandito Ako project was announced, TV5 referred to David as their newest “kapatid” — sibling, brother. Not just talk, either. He was welcomed like family. So were we all. Cast and crew tweeted with fans around the world. And local fans went above and beyond, not just to give David the hero’s welcome he deserves but to include all of us every step of the way.
From ustreaming Team Airport the moment he arrived (with even Eula and Jasmine there at the crack of dawn!) and giving us up-to-the-minute reports (and livestreams whenever possible) on every event to the Archuleta Philippines crew doing a translation simulcast for every. single. episode. And JackRyan4DA furiously subtitling eps into English so we didn’t miss a thing. And don’t even get me started on nareejo’s photos….
But most of all, I want to send a big salamat to all those countries that play David’s amazing songs on radio, air his music videos, buy his records, sell out his concerts, and, well, “get” David. My dream is that my own country will be on that list some day.
P.S.

So the only one this is a joke for really is TOfan. She doesn’t know I am making this post. Muahahaha
But anyways, I thought, since I have hijacked her website, this would be the perfect opportunity to express our love and gratitude to TOfan! She really is the best and has spent so much time over the last couple years keeping us updated and sharing her hilarity. Did you know she writes her post out by hand before typing them up? (pretty sure she told me that once… otherwise I just made that up lol) Such dedication <333 And now we have 315 Snowangelzz posts to keep us occupied for the next 2 years (that’s almost 1 every 2 days!)
TOfan is so kind and friendly to everyone. Always tries to make everyone feel welcome. Always careful to word her post, comments, tweets, emails in ways that won’t offend anyone or seem too pushy. Just little things like that. She’s always generous. Always tries to promote David as much as possible >>> she tweets “He’s @DavidArchie on twitter btw ” to tons of nonfans who tweet about him… in case you guys haven’t creeped her twitter and wanted to know that, lol.
Basically she is just all kinds of awesome. And she’s given so much to this fanbase and we soooo appreciate it! <3333
So, can we all comment and let her know how appreciated she is? And if there’s any lurkers out there, who love TOfan’s witty posts but don’t comment that often, now is the perfect time to show her some love!!
{{{hugs}}}

… excuse me, I just need a moment …..
P.S.
Replaying this song is saving my life today … “there’s a rainbow always after the raaaaain.”
P.P.S.
The lovely @kariontour twitpic’d David’s contribution to the #DA2014 project! “This might help all the Archies out there right now!”
I apologize in advance if you came here hoping to see something funny… I’m a jumble of emotions today.
I know many of you who’ve lost loved ones to cancer have found it particularly hard to watch the Nandito Ako scenes where Holly’s in the hospital. That hit me hardest on today’s final episode.
It took me back four years when I had to say goodbye to one of my dearest friends in a hospital room not all that different from Holly’s…except it was real. The night of her funeral was when I heard David sing for the first time … Shop Around.
And now NA is over, David’s going away for two years and I know one door closes and another opens, as it did that day four years ago for me, but I just needed to … I don’t even know….
I do know I want to give a big thank you to everyone who’s ever dropped by here, shared your stories, your comments and your love for David. I’m not closing down or anything I just wanted to say that while I thought of it because, as David keeps reminding us, you never know how long you’ll get the chance to do that.
Mahal na mahal na mahal kita.
