aprilfoolmain2Last week was April Fools’ — and you know what that means: PRANKS GALORE ALL OVER THE INTERNET! Since it was vacation time (and a holy day), K-Zone didn’t join in on the fun, but we did chuckle over some of the tricks these websites pulled. Hit the jump to see what tomfoolery happened last April 1.

Today, the SUMMER SEASON officially starts! School’s out for all of you, and even your parents and older sibs are also probably on break as well. YAHOOOO! Just to get all pumped up to vacay away, we asked K-Zoners on Facebook to share their best vacation memory! We picked the three best ones — was yours one of them? Find out after the jump?

Are you a fan of KZ on Facebook? Then watch out for more “Be seen in Ka-Blog!” posts to get a chance to be part of the K-Zone blog!

earth-hourTomorrow, let’s all make a stand and turn off the lights!

Yup, Earth Hour hits tomorrow from 8:30pm to 9:30pm. If you’ve been living in the dark (hehe), Earth Hour is a worldwide shoutout where people all over the globe pledge to turn off their lights for one hour.

Last year, the Philippines was one of the top participants on Earth Hour, with 647 (!!!) towns and cities switching off the lights. But more than trying to beat a record, let’s turn off our lights to be one with Mother Earth, and send the message that it’s time do something about our environment!

What to do in the dark for one hour? Here are three fun things you can do:
1. Tell ghost stories! Lights-off time is scare-their-pants-off time!
2. Make wax toys. Can you make Iron Man out of the dribbling globs of wax from your candle?
3. Break out the board games! Nothing eats up Earth Hour faster than cutthroat candlelight Monopoly!

grad

It’s graduation season! Congratulations to the Class of 2010!

After packing your togas away, a lot of you are probably jittery ’bout all that future grown-up stuff. Well, don’t sweat it! We all wanted to be a lot of different things when we were still kids and thinking about what we wanted to do in the future…and look where we ended up! (In K-Zone, duh!) What did the KZ staff want to become when they were still kids?

Lio: “A doctor.”
Ramona: “A gymnast.”
Ivan: “Vampire hunter. I still do, actually.”
Maite: “A nun. Seriously!”
Grace: “A gasoline station girl. Or a cashier.”
Cara: “Newscaster. Hahahaha!”
Koko: “A secretary.”

Disclaimer: Maggie is on vacation, so she isn’t able to reply to our texts!

How about you? What do you want to be when you grow up?

Hoozah! Check out this trailer of Selena Gomez’s upcoming movie, Ramona & Beezus! Selena plays Ramona’s older sister Beezus.


The website this content was sourced from may contain material not suitable for children. We are not responsible for content linked from this site.

Ramona & Beezus is based on a series of books about a little girl named Ramona Quimby, her older sister Beatrice or Beezus for short, Ramona’s family and the neighborhood she lives in.

I used to love reading the Ramona books when I was younger! I definitely can’t wait for the movie which comes out July this year.:)

Selena Gomez recorded the song, “Live Like There’s No Tomorrow”, for the movie. Hmm, wonder when Demi’s gonna star in her own movie and record a song for the movie soundtrack…
