BLUSH ft. Hannah: Photo Shoot

If you haven't heard by now, I am performing at the HOB Labor Day Block Party. No... I'm not singing I'm DANCING. I haven't danced in 8 years! I always loved and admired dancing but after high school I didn't go any further with it.

Thanks to my wonderful and talented friend Tiffany Domingo I will be performing with her project "Blush". We've been rehearsing for a little over a month and let me tell you it is not easy to get back into. Anywho, we needed group pictures and though it might be fun to do a photoshoot. It also helps when you have a good friend who is trying to make his name in photography.

This shoot was done in about 30-45 minutes because we were under a lot of time constraint. So don't judge too hard. =)

For Photoshoots and bookings please contact Mike Razo.

RIP Krisanto Jopanda and Avitha Rafael

-- If you have any pictures of Kuya Kris or Ate Vita please send them to hannie.kwak@gmail.com to be included in a slide show. --

This past Friday my friend took the life of the mother of his child and then took his own. His picture was all over the news on Friday as a murder suspect until the case ended Friday night when the police found him in Presidio Park. If details are that important to you then just google their names.

I've known them both for about 7 years now. They took me in for a while when I was going through a very rough time in my life and basically had no where to live. Kuya Kris always was about "tough love" he never let me get away with anything. I'm going to miss that constant guidance and kick in the butt. He always had my back no matter what. I can't describe what he means to me...

Not many people knew Ate Vita, she was always to herself. Didn't open up to people easily and I am so thankful that I am one of the few she let into her life. She was beautiful, strong, and one of the most real people I have ever known. This is my dedication to 2 of my friends I have lost.

You may read the articles and see the news and judge the situation. You may think my Kuya Kris is a coward for taking his own life after what he did. You may just simply think that he was a bad person. YOU may think whatever you want. All that matters now is the people that knew him. I know that he did this for love. Out of heart broken anger and pain... He loved my Ate Vita.

Kuya and Ate,
I'm sorry that I can't change what happened. I'm sorry that I wasn't a better friend to help you through the hurt you both were going through. A part of me is angry but a greater part of me is sad. I can't put into words how I feel, I really don't know how I feel... No one will ever understand the bond that we had and the things that we went through together. I don't know if I ever had a chance to tell you before but thank you. Thank you for taking me in and helping me get back on my feet. Thank you for putting up with my loud talking and laughing when you had work early the next morning. Thank you for teaching me to never back down. Thank you for always making sure I stood for what I believed in, wrong or right. Thank you for letting me get to know you and your son. Thank you for just being there... You are forever in my heart. I love you both so much.


This is not the typical song dedication you would expect. However, this song has a whole new meaning to me now...




Rest In Paradise Krisanto Jopanda & Avitha Rafael




I didn't post this to be morbid or attract sympathy. I did this for me, this is my way of being emotional and accepting what has happened. This is the way I thought it best to say good bye...

Hannie and Nancee to the RESCUE!

Last week Nancee and I decided to go visit our beautiful friend AL-EE-SOHN aka ALS!

We picked her up from her house and then headed over to TK - @tk_nguyen, Mark - @markmarcelo, and Mark - @imchach's hizzouse!

We just chilled around their house for a while, nothing to exciting. Then when Mark came home from work we went to eat dinner at Phoenix Inn and to visit the Hellz Office!


Nancee - @nanceely x Mark Marcelo




Alison aka ALS x Mark Marcelo




We were so hungry I forgot to take a picture of the food before we devoured it! It was soooooo good...




Look who came to eat dinner with us! Yes, it is our roomie Jay!!! You might recognize him from the end of my Bay Area Trip Video.. hahaha...




Mark insisted that we HAD to have dessert. I'm glad we did! I mean mochi balls filled with fresh mango?! YUMMMM!




Nancee, "Is black bean good for you? Because it sure tastes like it is!" LMFAO.




After dinner, we headed over to the Hellz - @whatthehellz office to say hi!




They were so busy that we didn't stay long but I'm glad I got to see my Angie - @angiedita




Star Shots!




When we got back to SD, we stopped by the gas station and as I'm pumping gas I look over and this is what I see... LMFAO!




Always good times in LA, I should make my way up there more often... =)

They don't call me "THE ASSISTANT" for nothin'!

This year for my birthday I wanted to do it BIG. In the 25 years of my life I haven't really had a BIG celebration so I started planning this one back in Feb/Mar. I originally wanted to do VEGAS, cuz who doesn't love Vegas but since I go there like 50 times a year it didn't seem too enticing. So, the idea to visit my wonderful friends in the BAY came to mind!

As of today, there are 21 BOOKED flights going to the bay with me from Thursday, Sept. 9 to Monday, Sept. 13.

Everything is now official and set. I actually had a meeting for everyone that is going on this trip with me and wrote out my own agenda. Basically, the whole trip is organized and set!

If you are taking this trip with us and missed the meeting, the agenda is posted below so make sure to look it over and familiarize yourself! =)

Let's Talk About TALENTED!

In my most recent trip to the bay I met this gorgeous lady named JEN - @jenisizzle. I actually met her as Joe - @DJHostyle 's girlfriend.

Nancee - @nanceely, Noelle - @nellcon, and I immediately fell in love with her! She was definitely so nice and not to mention GORGEOUS! Now it has come to my attention that not only is she nice and gorgeous but she can also SING! We all know how I love to watch people sing on YouTube!

Check her out for yourself, she is definitely going to make it big. =)

I'll be back in the bay for my bday so see u in September Jen! Maybe you can sing me Happy Birthday live!!!


THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE!!!
