Arnel Pineda Journey from the Zoo!

Do you love Arnel Pineda of Journey?

Do you love Arnel Pineda of Journey as much as we love connecting Filipinos together in the Philippines with Pinoystruck.com? If so then you REALLLLY LOVE ARNEL :-) If you just scratched your head over who Arnel is, check him out on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=weJ75cT-SZc

His story is quite amazing... he was in the band the Zoo in Philippines when he was discovered by the band Journey on Youtube to replace Steve Perry as the lead vocalist... Journey hired him and he went from Philippines to San Francisco and toured with Journey for months.

Did you know that Arnel had to put singing on hold after the tour because his voice needed to recover first? We were a bit dissapointed because when we were in the Philippines last he had just arrived back, but we missed him when we watched his old band the Zoo because he was resting his voice.

We actually talked with Arnel on the phone just before he left the Philippines... he is a really nice guy. I surprised my significant other by contacting him and getting him to phone her. When he phoned she didn't pick up because she thought it was someone else from the Philippines. It was hilarious when I got her to phone back the number and then she figured out during the call who he was and must have felt pretty nervous when he said "This is Arnel" to her question "Who is this?".

Arnel is awesome, and so is PinoyStruck our Dating Site for Philippines

Is there love out there?

I'm wondering tonight if there is love out there for filipinos? How do pinoys and pinays find each other in this tangled mess of a world we live in? I do believe though, that there is a soul partner for everyone. One need only be open to the signs that the universe provides.

Well, maybe not "only". One must only be willing to do some work to find the soul mate. Staying sitting on your thumbs is no fun so people who want to get messy should get online and start searching. One place where I know there's been success for pinoys in finding a mate is Pinoy Struck Go see for yourself and stop sitting on your thumbs! ;-)

Pinoy love struck

The filipino community is one of the closest knit communities in the world. Being close knit means that they love to interact with others and form community. In other words, "communing" with one another. In order to create community, there has to be lots of love in your heart because love is what you want to grow in your life by including other souls in your life.

Of the big hearted people that are all over the world creating love and community, pinoys have some of the biggest hearts. Every where they settle in the world, they spread joy and happiness, not only amongst fellow filipinos but with everyone around them.

On the internet, there is a site where philippinos are going to start an online community. This site is called Pinoy Struck, creatively named as a twist on "Love Struck". The community is based on love and respect, and is growing fast. Want to be part of it? Go see, for free, at www.pinoystruck.com.

Love and light.
