Dabaweña Erich Gonzalez in "Katorse"!

showmain-katorse
"Katorse" is the biggest break so far for Dabaweña Erich Gonzales who hails from Davao City. Her career as an actress began when she won as the Grand Questor in the 2005 Star Circle Teen Quest.

In "Katorse", Erich Gonzales, Ejay Falcon, and Xian Lim take on very challenging roles in the ABS-CBN remake of the ‘80s film Katorse. Erich plays the role of Nene, an ordinary barrio lass whose life is about to change with the arrival of her childhood friends Albert and Gabby during one fateful summer. With two guys vying for her attention, Nene embarks on a romantic adventure that turns into a disaster as she faces an unwanted pregnancy. Nene also discovers a whole lot of troubles involving her family. Could she survive being a teenage mom? Can something good come out of a huge mistake? Catch this tale about love and responsibility in Katorse.

Cast & Characters:



cast-katorse-erich

Erich Gonzales as Nene – Nene dreams of living in the city just like her elder sister Nenita. At 14, there hasn’t much excitement in her life until she gets reunited with the dashing Arcangel brothers. Will her first brush with love ruin her life forever or will it help her transition into a mature young woman?



cast-katorse-xian

Xian Lim as Albert – Though he’s a love child from his mom’s previous relationship, Albert has all the qualities of a real heir to the Arcangels’ hacienda. As the eldest son, he is responsible for and considerate of his brother’s wild streak. But will he remain selfless when it comes to matters of the heart?



cast-katorse-ejay

Ejay Falcon as Gabby – He may be the real Arcangel but his rebellious attitude further puts a gap between him and his parents. Making him more insecure is the fact that the girl he loves already fancies his brother. How will he make Albert pay for stealing everyone’s affection away from him?

Souvenirs from Cebu!

Planning on going to Cebu? There are a lot of things that you can buy their as souvenirs or give away for friends and relatives! It sure is very interesting just going trough some stores that sells everything that is Cebu made. I was just passing through Cebu for a stop over in going to Palawan. And the airport’s departure area is already a nice place to start looking for things to buy and bring home.



Island Souvenir Cebu is already offering a wide variety of T-shirts with everything Cebu designs which is very young and hip. You can’t go wrong at all in buying one for yourself and for the rest of your family too.

More pictures and the rest of the entry after the jump!
