Kobe Bryant | Mamba Inspired Life

01.29.2020 – More than forty eight hours has been passed and tributes poured in from NBA games to the Staples Center for the tragic death of Kobe Bryant that also include his 13-year old daughter Gianna, six family friends including Coach John Altobelli and his wife and daughter, and the pilot. All on board were killed. The past couple of days were really somber all over the world who have followed a 17 year old became one of the NBA Greats of All Time. It was a gut wrenching day as mostly described who knew Kobe as a person beyond the basketball player people associate him with. What’s tough is that in his tragic death it also included Gianna, the heir apparent to follow his path in becoming the basketball player we all hope for is also gone.

Mikez Ancheta Tribute | This is Your Wall

12.18.2019 – I’ve met so many good people in the past through the toy collecting community. Some of them has grown and moved on and then there are some left this plain too soon. I used to be part of the Action Figure Philippines (AFP) forums before Facebook took over the social media mainstream. When you talk about AFP there’s Don Razon, who passed away in 2016 and then there’s Mikez Ancheta.

A Year After | Don Razon 1977-2016

11.25.2017 – It has been exactly one year after Fernando “Don” Razon III passed away on the night of this date. I have not forgotten him even though I missed his homecoming and burial back in Manila I always remember for the way he is a generous funny guy. Though I’m not a close to this very talented individual, he became a good friend over the last years of life. I haven’t had written a proper tribute to his legacy on GeekMatic! last year this was due to personal commitments and the changes in my own life that brought me to this foreign country where Don moved with his family. It was also a difficult time personally that I wasn’t able to say my goodbyes and here’s a tribute to RATEEG.

In Memoriam: AJ Matela Remembered.

09.09.2011 - Who is AJ Matela? For some who are new in the blogging community he is the proprietor of the former BaklaAko.com site.

The man has lived and breathes his true self as an individual who stands out among his fellow bloggers.

Flamboyant and talented to his close friends and family we will never see another person like AJ.

Born Ariel James Matela is opinionated and fashionably chic on how he brings himself. He doesn’t have fear to say what he doesn’t like out loud. Though I do not personally know the man but he captured everyone’s attention through his blog.
