Dan Santos with a frantic call, it must be important. It turned out he was just within the vicinity and tugging along are his friends whom he want me to see before I leave for US. I was a little lazy to go what with the late night drizzle that usually dampen anybody's spirit and put him to sleep instead. So with little hesitation, I dressed up and braved the rain that almost prevented me to go.

Wiping the little drops of water in my already wet head, I peered thru Jollibee's glass window and saw three hunky men with Dan as their host. I learned that they are sending off a friend in the airport. Gosh, I told myself, " Had I not been brave enough to wade the already murky Taft Avenue streets, I didn't have the chance to rub elbows with the cute and the handsome.... in this side of town!

One of this "cute and the handsome" is our featured model today. His name is Ken Allen, 19 years old who stands 5 ft and 9 inches and is taking Masscom at NDDU. He was quite at the start, but after the ice was broken, he can be reassuring too as he kept on reminding me, "Kuya ... magsalita ka naman. He joked a lot too, I almost die lauging when he commented something about their successful family business (I can't reveal what is it) but everytime the opportunity was there he said nonchalantly' "May pera na naman".

He loves to sing and dance, obviously, as he gave us a sample of his singing voice, unmindful of surprised looks of onlookers and kibitzers nearby ... full of bravado and pregnant with lots of vibrato and tremolo. He is a theater actor on the side and they have made successful shows in Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines. He joined Starstuck 5 recently and he consider the whole exercise as one big learning experience.

Pheeew! What a night ... and there's still a lot of things that can be said about it. Right now I am back with a cold winter winds of California, but my meeting with the guys ... the memories will definitely warm sad thoughts ... and lonely hearts! More of the guys next ish!
