Image
I’m a 1.5 generation Filipino immigrant — I left the Philippines at 9 years old and grew up in the United States. Like many others who moved young, I still find myself learning more about the history and cultural richness of our homeland. One of the most fascinating and often overlooked aspects of the Philippines is just how diverse it truly is. The Philippines is home to over 175 ethnolinguistic groups , each with its own language, culture, and history. Below is a more detailed look at the major groups, including where they live and approximate population sizes. Luzon Tagalog (~28–30 million) – Central & Southern Luzon, Metro Manila, Mindoro Ilocano (~9–10 million) – Northern Luzon, Ilocos, Cordillera, migrants in Mindanao Kapampangan (~2.9 million) – Pampanga, Tarlac, parts of Bulacan, Bataan Pangasinan (~1.5–1.8 million) – Pangasinan Province Bicolano (Central Bikol) (~4–5 million) – Bicol Region Ibanag (~500,000) – Cagayan Valley Ivatan (~30,0...

Happy National Leon Day!

Image
National Leon Day is celebrated every June 25th , and it marks exactly six months until Christmas Day . The name “Leon” is simply “Noel” spelled backward , and “Noel” is a French word meaning “Christmas.” 🎅 Is It a Real Holiday? Leon Day is not a government holiday , but it's widely recognized online and in certain niche communities. Think of it like “Star Wars Day” (May the 4th)—fun, unofficial, but real to fans. Lots of Filipinos mark September 1 as the start of the Christmas season at the start of the "ber" months. I guess there are some who start earlier on June 25! 🔔 Common Leon Day Activities Start working on handmade Christmas gifts Plan or preview holiday decor Begin holiday budgeting or shopping Run "Christmas in July" teaser sales or announcements Join us & help build this Los Angeles Filipino-American community.

I'll admit it: when the news broke about the verdict involving Sean "Diddy" Combs, I was stunned. Like many who grew up on Bad Boy Records hits, Diddy was a household name. Smooth, flashy, and seemingly untouchable — until now. Cassie: The Woman Behind the Story I’ll be honest — I’d always wondered what happened to Cassie. Her 2006 hit song "Me & U" was everywhere. Sultry, hypnotic, and minimalistic, it stood out in a crowded pop-R&B landscape. But after a few features and sporadic appearances, she seemed to fade from the spotlight. Now I understand that a big part of that absence was tied to her relationship with Combs. Cassie started dating Diddy around 2007, when she was just 21. The relationship was long-lasting but marked by rumors of manipulation and imbalance. Her career never fully took off, and now we know part of the reason: she w...

Happy Anniversary, Tita Nene & Tito Jun – July 6, 1990 💐🇵🇭🇺🇸 Posted on July 6, 2025 📸 July 6, 1990 – Pasadena, CA. Celebrating the wedding of Grace Perseveranda & Castor “Jun” Silvestre. Today we celebrate the 35th wedding anniversary of Grace Perseveranda and the late Castor “Jun” Silvestre — married on July 6, 1990 in the beautiful city of Pasadena, California. 💍🌴 It was a classic SoCal summer day when two beautiful families came together. My girlfriend at the time, Liza Franco, even flew in from Chicago to attend. I had just returned to California after living in the Windy City, and this wedding was one of the first family celebrations I was part of back in LA. In this special photo are: Vincent Putong (my future brother-in-law), my sister Joy, our dad Ronnie, mom Nati, BFF Liza, and me. We stood proudly by the window, soaking in both the sunlight and the joy of the day. Tita Nene, we remember your special day. And to Tito Jun —...
