JUAN MINUTE: A Great Year For Jessa Zaragoza

It was this year that I met Jessa Zaragoza for the first time for the launch of her album under GMA Records, and she showed that she is indeed a down-to-earth star with a great voice and bubbly personality. And this year has been a great year for her and her husband Dingdong Avanzado as they both enjoy the projects and successes that came in their way.

Being a mother, singer, actress are some of the qualities of Jessa that make her a sought-after personality even after their hiatus for some time. Now that they are back in the limelight, things are going into place and sometimes going beyond their expectations.

And even both of them are busy with their own projects they do find time for each other and their daughter. She also maintained to stay fit and flawless (same goes with Dingdong who celebrated his 25th anniversary in showbiz) which still makes them very recognizable to the public even after years has passed.

Now let's look back on the things that Jessa Zaragosa did this year...

Watch Out 2012 !

Its 2012 now and MTL is cooking up something new this year.  I know that many are frustrated in making new year resolutions that will end up in failure. However I do look at it at a different way, making them GOALS. In this way there is a process to be followed, a way to monitor if it is improving or not. And this is what I am doing this year for my future project especially for MTL and the other blogs. 

And this year I think will be a year with more video blogs and features incorporated to written blog post. I am also considering podcast however people prefer looking at videos rather than listening to voice audio.

And yes, were cooking up two projects for 2012 which I have announced last year and still in the works to provide a quality output. Presenting Juan Minute and Okra Soup! Two short video shows with different  formats, one for live interviews and another for satiric comedy. Though Juan Minute was originally planned for 2011, my video experiments were the way for gauge and come up with techniques and how stitch them all together. I feel inspired to do this because of my readers like you who made the year and the blog wonderful.

For the meantime I had a video made for the new year... enjoy!
