the new kid on the block: aki sato.

For all of those who are keeping up with the trends, you’ll already know that Penshoppe just launched their new fashion underwear line called Undercover. I think it’s a move to keep up with the demand for trendier under garments. People, apparently, are now inclined in showing what they’re wearing inside than flaunting what’s on the outside.

Aside from this new line of flashy underwear comes a new face in the Philippine modeling world. Let’s call him Akihiro Sato. He's the guy posing in black. Front and center. I think it’ll be redundant to type his background here since he’s one Google away.

Fortunately for UP students, this Akihiro guy is just an Acad Oval away. I heard he’s studying Filipino in UP and he’s too easy to spot (well, at least for me and for those who belong to Arts and Letters). I am writing about him at this point because I just realized how stupid I was for thinking that he is Ma’am Erica Valerio’s boyfriend. It’s not that Ma’am Valerio can’t have an equally hot partner, but I heard Akihiro is currently in a relationship – married, as reported by gossip peeps. I’m not sure.

Honestly, I didn’t know him until last week. So those times that I walked pass by him in his athletic outfit, those times I passed by him in the campus, and those times I hated him for blocking the way, were times wasted. I could have used those opportunities to scrutinize the guy more and report to you how he looks like in “real life”.

In any case, it doesn’t really matter. What matters most is my English 102 exam later. So I’ll stop here and catch up with you some other time.

Ciao!
