Dad’s the way I look

This is a photo of my Dad when he was just a few years older from my current age.

Further proof that I am definitely what my relatives say. I'm a carbon-copy of my Dad.

Happy Father's Day!

Peas in a Pod

The older I get, the more people tell me that I look like my Dad.

There was even one time when I was waiting for Mona, and she sent me an SMS that said:

"My gosh you look so much like your dad!!!!!!"

And with a photo like this, I can't help but agree.

Mini (It really wasn't) Me

When I showed Mother Lyli this photo of Javier, she exclaimed: "Clest, alam ko na ang hitsura mo nung bata ka!"

Well, we didn't have jogger pants or Crocs when we were kids, neither did we have really cool statement tees from H&M. But judging by his features, I must say Mother is right.

Javier and I are look-alikes!

Daddy birthday again!

And just like that, it's Dad's birthday again!

I must say, the more the years pass, the more we're looking more and more alike.

Happy Birthday Dad!

The Clooney bin

After my haircut, the girl who assisted my barber shampoos my hair, dries it, fluffs it, looks at me then says:

GIRL: "Ayan sir, George Clooney na George Clooney na ulit kayo."

By George!

When people tell me that I look like Steve Martin, I'm actually no longer surprised. After all, since college, I've heard that comment from some of my classmates. Heck, even some of D' Frendz told me that way back in our college years. And the most recent person who told me that was a client who - after my lengthy presentation - could only comment: "You know, you look like Steve Martin."

Classic!

I'm thinking that it might be because of the smile. Steve Martin has the same "smiley face" that people say I have.

After that, there was a slew of other names of personalities who I supposedly look-alike. There's Zachary Quinto, Josh Hartnett, Andrew Garfield, among others. My theory is that whenever people see someone with thick eyebrows, they automatically remember me. Harhar.

In tonight's shoot, there's another name that was added to the list. And I found out from my colleague, Ferdie, after we had this conversation:

HIM: Naku, Lester, may ikukuwento ako sa'yo.
ME: What?
HIM: Matutuwa ka.
ME: What?
HIM: Tinanong ko kasi yung talent kung na-clear na ng creatives yung look and make up nila, tapos sabi nila, tapos na daw. Tinanong ko kung sino ang nag-clear, and sabi nila, yung lalaki. 
ME: And?
HIM: Siyempre, sabi ko, "Sinong lalaki? Ang dami-daming lalaki sa studio na 'to?"
ME: Okay, and...?
HIM: Sabi nung girl: "Yung lalaking matangkad. Yung kamukha ni George Clooney."
ME: And...?
HIM: Ikaw 'yun! Ikaw na! Ikaw na ang kamukha ni George Clooney!

This reminds me of a photo of Dad that Ate Lissa posted, and one of our Titos said that Daddy looks like George Clooney.

So, I therefore conclude that I really, really look like...

My Dad! (But hey, if someone says I look like George Clooney, who am I to complain. Harhar.)
