Apparently the “harana” is a traditional element of courtship in Filipino culture. But in this series, before Josh serenaded Anya with “Nandito Ako,” he warmed up with an improv’d song all his own (sung to the tune of “Smelly Cat“) ….
"Alrighhhht... finally, my wheelhouse... I have SO got this! Watch and learn, folks, watch and learn."
Hit it, Billy!
"Ohhhh, Anyaaaa... (hey,can I change your name to Anna? ... it's easier to rhyme with stuff)"
"Uncle Steve is historyyyy but why you won't date me's a mysteryyyy, oh Anyaaaa...
"I did a flippin' handstand to impress youuuu... what do I need to do, the splits??? ... oh Anyaaaaa"
"If I say your name even more times, will you be miiiiine? Oh Anya, Anya, Anyaaaaa
.
.
.
.
.
.
"You were probably more disappointed than the fans that The Thing wasn't a kiss, am I right?? HUH???"
"My sockets are dry but my heart is full for youuuuuu, oh Anyaaaaaa"
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"I know you wanna do right by your frieeeend, but snap out of it, Marzipan-juniorrrr!!!!
"Holly will be fiiiine... @therealnewangel said she'll meet two new guys: Ben & Jerryyyyyy, oh Anyaaaaaa"
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"And, seriously, what are your other options????"
"... a guy who likes to wear your clothessss? Puh-leese, oh, Anyaaaaa"
"I got smacked by an oooaaaaar for youuuu, oh Anyaaaa"
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"I even took everything out of my pockets and stapled my shirt to my pants so I wouldn't spoil the moooooment, oh Anyaaaaa"
"THIS is how you should have reacted!!!"
"or thiiiissssss...."
"or thisssss"
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"or, at the very least, this!... oh, Anyaaaa"

"Oh man, why can't he do 'Elevator'??? I'd be out there in a flash!!!"

SnowAngelz: Canadian fans of David Archuleta 
so flippin’ funny.I wish all these Pinoy girls would lighten up! then I wouldn’t have to fast forward thru their scenes. When are we addressing the heavy breathing??The guy sure gets worked up.
Hilarious as usual!!
“(hey,can I change your name to Anna? … it’s easier to rhyme with stuff)” 😀 😀 😀
Also this seriously made me lol >> “I even took everything out of my pockets and stapled my shirt to my pants so I wouldn’t spoil the moooooment, oh Anyaaaaa” Hahahahaha
Brilliant, Tofan, to keep “Guitar Hero” hidden.
I had no idea what Josh was going to do next! Haha.
Bet that’s one acting gig NOT in David’s portfolio!
Newsflash. Paul Anka has a summer home in Batangas!
He secretly met with Josh and penned these lyrics for him:
“Oh, please, stay by me, DianYA!”
Very, very funny. Can’t wait for the next episode of Who’s Kidding Who? So clever and amusing. Thanks((((hugs)))))
TOfan: hilarious!
Giggling once more! I kept trying to put it to a tune called “Kenya.” “Anya, Anya, Anya, ohhh Anya.” Link may be slightly offensive (I hope not) http://www.weebls-stuff.com/songs/kenya/
MARZIPAN-JUNIOR! I spilled coffee over that, LOL
You know TOFan, all these pages will be REAL IMPT when we are in the slumpwaiting for him for 2 years. So thank you, thank you, thank you for always being the sunshine of the fandom.
MUWAH!
ps; I think you and Volta should get together…

Enjoy these much needed lighter moments. Tried to comment earlier but WordPress not accepting. Will try twitter!!
Oh TOfan, thanks for the once again hilarious, much needed happy, joyful, funny, funny wiritings!
Didn’t get time to comment yesterday but laughed so hard at all of it. I can actually hear David’s voice singing those words, haha. Leaves us all with a much needed smile, thank you.
Will have to catch up on the rest later (David and fashion sense, etc).
Special thanks to JR and others for the gifting campaign…Forevermore is so, so lovely and many thanks for all the time spent supplying subtitles for the series, so appreciated!
A happy St Patrick’s Day to the Irish out there! 🙂
So funny TOfan. Love your sense of the absurd!
Had a really great reply yesterday, but lost it when I tried to post. It was really late and I didn’t want to type it all over again, so just know that I think you are wonderful to give us all these leaks.
I love it!!!
hahaha, thanks for trying again, sweetonda! I wondered where everyone went, lol.
I’d seen this press conf. version before but LOOOVE this closeup vid… esp. when you see him spot Jasmine come up beside him at the very end 🙂 🙂 🙂
…and how did I miss this one of the actual press conf??????? Esp. at 3:00 where D. talks about everyone always asking if there was a “little sumpthin’ sumpthin'” going on between him & the 2 girls! *DYING*
Loved the interview and David singing Nandito Ako. Had seen it before but seeing again now that we know the cast etc makes it even better, Laughed at David’s comment on Sumthin Sumthin too!! Love the way Jasmine came up and smiled at David first with all the cast coming forth.
Loving the spring theme, TOfan! It is so springtime in Canada! Loving it!!!
I have really enjoyed the leaks as well.
I feel sorry about Holly’s illness but her reaction to Anya and Josh is really annoying. I mean the two of them were never involved. They went on one date that wasn’t really a date. It was a fan contest. And she wasn’t even the one who won. If Anya hadn’t given her the date she probably wouldn’t have even met Josh. She barely spent anytime with Josh. He never expressed any feelings for her. I don’t know why she thought he was in love with her. When he does tell her he is in love with someone else, she won’t let him go. She is fixated on her competition. What competition? She isn’t even in the race. She talks about how surely Anya won’t take Josh away from her. She never had him in the first place. Anya can’t take something away that she never had. She is willing to throw away the great friendship that she has with Anya over a guy who has never been interested in her and never will.
Sorry for the long diatribe, but I needed to vent. LOL. As you can see, I have tremendously enjoyed watching this show.
LOLOL, Kris, “as you can see I have tremendously enjoyed watching this show” hahahaha… me too! … all I can tell you is that my best friend at 18 “stole” a guy I liked but never actually dated and as irrational as it was, I pretty much had the same reaction as Holly… just not in Tagalog. LOL
That is funny. I guess it is true that art imitates life. I never had that experience so maybe that is why Holly’s behavior is so annoying to me. Did you eventually work things out with your best friend? I hope that is what the writers of NA do. It would be nice if Holly realizes how much she would be losing by remaining mad and that she accepts their relationship. I also hope that Holly gets better. That would be a great happy ending for me.
I feel bad about Holly’s illness and mother but also get annoyed with her entitlement.
Josh and his Music were Holly’s drug of choice long before the one date that Anya won and gave to her. If you recall every time Holly felt down she put Josh’s music on and of course she ended up helping him when he wanted to look for his Mom. Her relationship with Josh is mostly fantasy which happens!!
I understand her reaction in finding out that Josh loves Anya but don’t like it. More Manipulation to come with YaYa!!
I’m hoping in time Holly can be half the friend to Anya that Anya has been to her.
Ha! Ha! glad someone else needed to Vent.
Team Jonya!!
I agree Heidijoy. I also don’t think that she really loves Josh. How could she? She doesn’t really know him. She idolizes him and thinks he is perfect and amazing without really knowing who he is as a person. She might love the fantasy or idea she has of him but she doesn’t love him.
“You were probably more disappointed than the fans that The Thing was a kiss, am I right?? HUH???”…….rotfl…..my fave by far!!! Love it once again 🙂 ❤
I think I am going to be annoyed until Friday. Maybe even until 5 or 10 minutes is left in the episode. I am just preparing myself for that. LOL. I saw a translation for the preview of the next episode. Yaya tells Anya to forgive her and that she knows she is being selfish. I am guessing that she asks Anya to not be with Josh to make Holly happy. Yaya and Holly love to lay the guilt trips on Anya. Holly is lucky to have a friend like Anya.
Agree Holly is lucky to have a friend like Anya.
Not expecting kisses. Those Eye glazes, Hugs and Smiles is enough for me.
me too, Heidijoy! 🙂
New post/thread!
🙂
Who are you TOfan? You should have a TV show in USA. They’re nothing compared to you antics. Bravuraaaa!
