Here Comes The (Boom) Call From Charice

Saturday morning. January 26^th in the Philippines. Checking tweets of Chasters. Boom! No Boom?!

There were tweets of Chasters (including those from outside of the Philippines—really sweet Chasters) asking for the showing of Here Comes The Boom in the Philippine cinemas. Then, I was sad, sad, sad. I saw a tweet from Chaster Maria saying the HCTB director Frank Coraci himself “tried (to) get HCTB in PH but still a no go!” As of this writing, only three Asian countries have release dates of the movie.

Last year, I put the link to the release dates of HCTB on my Twitter profile when the Philippines was still in the Asia Pacific listing. And I’m leaving that link there until HCTB showing is over, hoping that those who come across my profile page will know about it…and I’m still hoping that one day, I’ll see the name of my country there again. Whether it will be shown or not on the big screen here, I’m buying the DVD of HCTB once it is released in February.

Still the same Saturday. Afternoon now. Checking tweets of Chasters again. Then, I was happy, happy, happy. Very happy! I did not mind the “all caps tweets” of Chasters. Go, hit that Caps Lock on your keyboard! Sweet chaos on my timeline! Why? The Charice spoke to one, two, three, four (were there more?) Chasters on the phone! Reading those screaming tweets of excitement, pouring tears of joy, shortness of breath, elation, hyperventilation, palpitation, “heart attacks!”, laughters, smiles, ecstasy—Such Gleeful Moment! Just reading them made me sooooo happy I forgot all about my sadness regarding the HCTB movie because the Real Boom spoke to Chasters! Then, a thought came to me. What if Charice called me? How would I react? What would I say to her? Should I request her to sing? What song? I stopped thinking about it. I just couldn’t handle it.

Hooray for the Chasters who got the dream calls from Charice! Hooray for all the Chasters who shared in the jubilation and celebration!

P.S.   

While writing this article, I had the chance to tweet with Chaster Janine, the one who made the phone calls possible. She’s such a darling and selfless in making many Chasters happy. Thank you, Janine, for your effort. It’s very much appreciated. Thank you also for all the other Chasters who were the “partners in crime” of Janine.

And of course, thank you, Charice for fulfilling the dreams of the Chasters. You called four Chasters and made them very, very happy. Multiply that number a hundred or even thousands of times and that’s the number of Chasters that actually became very, very happy.

To Charice & Chasters, Cheers! LabyoMucho! =))
