Weddings in India are so cool, people are paying to crash them


Those who want to get a genuine taste of India's culture can take advantage of the country's wedding tourism through JoinMyWedding.com. Some Indian couples tying the knot like the idea of sharing their day and their customs. They even make a little money from it. Travelers pay a fee that allows them to "dress in traditional Indian garb, taste the exotic flavors, dance to the enchanting music, and take part in beautiful wedding customs." While it may sound strange at first glance, I think it is also an exciting and fulfilling way to experience the country's traditions and cultural values.

Press Play Again

You know that feeling when you stumble upon an old movie you haven't seen in years? It's like finding a dusty photo album and flipping through the pages, only instead of bad hairstyles, you're greeted with hideous special effects and awful dialogue. Also, the dramatic tension I remembered as nail-biting was now… well, a little slow-paced. But the truly entertaining part of rewatching a movie is that you notice things you never did before.

These ladies brought the chill.

The Philippines just bagged the gold medal at the recent International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) Women's Asia Cup in UAE. Yes, you read that right. Ice hockey. Champions. But let me tell you, what we lacked in natural frozen water, we more than made up for in heart, hustle, and teamwork. The ladies had a perfect tournament in Al Ain with victories against Kyrgyzstan (15-0), UAE (6-1), Malaysia (8-1) and India (4-1) before beating Iran  (4-2) for the gold. They proved that you don't need snow to conquer the ice. You just need talent, determination, and maybe a little bit of that Pinoy magic that allows us to thrive in the most unexpected situations. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to find the nearest halo-halo vendor to celebrate.
