I was born in 1988 and I’ve been blogging since 2003. My father was the master rapper (he died of leukemia in 2009) but I’ve still got a super mom who looks too hot to be a mother of eight. Five of us are in show business. I took Creative Writing in Ateneo de Manila and I got published for the very first time in Seventeen Philippines back in 2006. Today I write occasionally for the Philippine Star’s Young Star section. I’ve done a little bit of modeling, singing, directing and acting but I love blogging the most.
I like simple things: grade school, plastic balloons, polly pockets, cheap cake and spooky couches.

Happy Heart’s Day SAAB! :* i have something for you lavvvya!
just check out my tumblr (: lolouiseee.tumblr.com
:*
Is this also yours? http://momol.tumblr.com/
Just caught my attention, lol.
Yes haha
Because it has a link to this site of yours;)
Your blog posts here are really cool, as well as with your tumblr!
Yo Saab!! :)
Came across your Tumblr account and this blog, as I was googling your pics kasi I saw you on your TV series Koreana (thanks PinoyTV!), and I find you’re hair so adorable, but I didn’t know you didn’t like it at first until I started reading your blog. I hated my hair so much, and just like you, I became really obsessed on straightening it. I did a looooooooot of stuff to it — bleached, coloured, straightened, ironed, permed — lahat na! And it caused serious damage to my hair. No one is ever content with what he/she has :( Then I happened to read one of your posts in this blog, about your hair and how it was hard for you at first to accept it, but now you have embraced on how lovely your locks are. My sister and I have the same texture (ng hair na, like you, eh we got it from dad too!), and she sooo hated it. She once told me she wanted to have her hair rebonded when she turns 18. I made her read your blog (especially that post). Not only did she realize she’s got great hair, she got hooked on your blog too! Hahahahaha! Reading your blog is our girl-bonding (we barely see each other kasi busy din ako sa univ, so when I come home early from work or school, I go and sit with my sister and visit both your Tumblr and your personal blog together). Mee just wanna say THANK YOU for bringing my sister and I closer and making us realize that beauty lies not on how you want others to see you but on how you carry yourself regardless of the hurtful comments they might say against you. We love you soooo!! Keep on inspiring and touching other people’s lives! :))
PS, what a coincidence my guy’s name’s Julius, too! And we’re turning one this July. He has a band back home and is good with guitars too! ‘Stig!! :) I don’t know if you’d agree on me with this one, but, who would not be a sucker for guys who know how to play the guitar? Bahahahaha! *Blush* !! You look happy with him :)) Stay in love! <3
Cheers!

Hi Helene!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to post that message. I’m so touched at how you and your sister got closer because of my blog!!! I love it, one of the best messages I’ve got. Thank you once again!:’)
P.S. Go Julius boyfriends!:))
Love,
Saab
Heyo Saab!
“One of the best messages I’ve got (Magalona, 2011)!” *TEAAAAAAAAAARS!! :’) Kinilig kami ni sister ng sobra-sobra! :)))))
Mm, sorry (naman daw) to bother you yet again LOL (knowing you’re super busy)! :P I don’t have a Tumblr account so I don’t know how I’d be able to check if you replied on my question if we could buy FMCC shirts online and have it shipped to Canada. I wanna purchase a couple for me and my folks. Appreciate it a whole lot!
All smiles,
Helene
I’ll update you guys on the new website coming very very very soon!!

Hi Saab!
I saw you in Starbucks Katipunan but I was too shy to ask you for a picture. :(
You’re really pretty and I’m an avid reader of your blog!
I’m really into blogging but I’m having a hard time updating it. I don’t know how you do it! Handling two blogs at a time!
Anyway… More power to you and Julius! :)
Hi! I wish you said hello!:) Thank you!!:D
Hi Ms. Saab,
few days ago ko lang nalaman na may blog site ka.. Na inspired talaga ako. SOBRA!! :D

P.S. I totally agree with you, your mom is way too hot to be a mother of 8. ;)
I’ve always wanted to do blogging but I ended up lazy about it and ended it, I got like 4 blogging attempts and just stopped completely. I came across to your blog and Lauren uy’s BMS blog and got so so inspired and ended up reading it, amazing styles and stuff reviews, i got so inspired. Now, i’m hooked up with tumblr and never stopped blogging until now. thank you for the inspiration.
you rock and so does your blog!!

Hi Saab! I love reading your blogs so much. I enjoy a lot. Nakaka inspire ka po, on how you dress and you’re so cool. Keep blogging! i love it <3
Saab! I saw you this morning at Chevrolet Power Run, you gave me and my sister this flyer about Rain4Africa. We just finished the race then (no cellphone or camera) so I didn’t have the chance to take a picture with you :( thanks for being so nice! You looked pretty by the way! I love your red toms though it got mud all over it :| I will definitely run for Africa :) Godbless tumblr queen! :)
Hello, sorry but that wasn’t me :s
Hello Saab. I won’t be going on the internet for a while, so think of this as an advance birthday present :)
Don’t hate me for this – but honestly, a part of me always thought that people who fawn (as in OA fawn ha) over Artistas/Celebrities were pathetic. I told myself that I will never ever be one of them. I was doing good of my promise. Until I came across your blog (tumblr pa non, actually)
I remembered you from an issue of WITCH. I remembered how much I re-read that feature (you still had straight hair then! And Clara was already so cute).
Then eventually I found myself typing in isabellamagalona.com and saabmagalona.tumblr.com EVERYDAY. I don’t know what did it. Maybe because your posts are so real. Like the Taylor Momsen post, you know you were going to get some hate, pero you expressed your opinion anyway. And your constant attempt at losing weight? It makes me realize that you’re not THAT different from other girls – but syempre, you have special attributes.
I don’t know where I’m going with this so I’ll just sum it up – Maria Isabella Simone Arroyo Magalona, (advance) happy 23rd birthday. Stay special and real. I wish you all the best :*
<3<3<3
Hi Saab! :)
I really love your style of blogging. I do enjoy reading every of your posts. I would like to meet you personally like hell. Haha. I do love you and the whole Magalona Clan. I really love how you treat each of your readers. You’re such an inspiration to many unwell known bloggers like me. :) Take care Saab, I love you! <3
<3 Thank you so much!:)
really love your blogs, been a fan of the Magalonas, have 2 shirts of FMCC for free (which my mom and bro used to worked on constructing FMCC store- SM Manila) you’re really awesome ^^,
Hi Saab! I’ve been hearing your blogs all over everywhere ever since but didn’t got a chance to read it or whatsoever. Well, now’s the time and I really really love it :) Your blog rocks and so inspiring. Thank you and Godbless! :)
Dear Ate Saab <3

(Sana di ka madapa dahil palagi kong minimention name mo hehe) 'Di ko na patataasin! LOVE YOU! SANA MAGKITA TAYO :) SABIHIN MO SAKIN PAG PUPUNTA KA NG CEBU HA? :) Hahah love you Ate Saab <3 :) :* sobraaaaah.
Love,

Hi Ate Saab! I’m Monica Lerit, from Assumption College and I’d ask you something :) On our batch week, we’re having an auction for a cause, I’d like to ask if you can give us any item that would be part of the auction. It would really really help us raise funds for a Christmas party for World Vision kids. :)
hi saab, my gf reads your blog quite often. shes a singapore-based architectural designer and recently (blissfully?) started her own blog – architecture, art, design, fashion, travel – shes a madman with the keyboard :) it will mean the world to her if you can just drop her a simple message at http://www.lovekarlita.com to inspire her to keep writing. Godbless you and thanks.
Done :)
Bless you.
Hey there Saab! Goodmorning! Know what?! What i first thought in this morning? Go and check your site!? HAHA am so addicted on it and i can’t stop my self lookin on it! Those rings from Toxic Candy??

Dear Saab,
I So Love Your Blog. I Once Had My Own Domain Too But It’s Already Expired. I Didn’t Bother Renewing It For I Really Don’t Know What To Put In It. It Only Lasted For A Month Or So, It Only Contained Junks. But Seeing Your Blog Everyday Makes Me Want To Up My Site Again. Hope This Time It’ll Be A Good One, Like Yours. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :)
hi saab! i enjoyed reading your blog..its so addicting! belated happy birthday! ;)

OMG! I want to see you in person! :)
saab do you still work at philippine star until now? :)
Used to contribute for them but haven’t lately!
Hi Saab! I really love reading your blogs. I even join some of your contests hehe :) But I really like the Marshall Law contest/blog. Hoping that I win tho :/ More powers!
Hi Saab,
everytime i and my brother have our bonding time ang lagi namin pinapanuod is the videos of your family in youtube and listen to francis m song pero ngayon more on elmo and arkin na kami. We really love your family. Nagdaan din kasi kami sa situation na parang sa inyo. My dad got heart attack and for 7yrs we need to be strong for him. And Thanks to’ the technology and the hospital here in italy my dad got a new heart. Ang pinagpapasalamat ko lang is yung bonding namin sa family Mas lalong lumalim. We were inspired by your family on how to’ deal problems.
Anyway i love blogging too kaso medyo naging busy when my dad undergo heart transplant. Gusto ko na ngang idelete ang blog site ko but when i see your blog (as well as bianca gonzales) nainspire ako. Thanks for being an inspiration.Sana magshow kayo dto sa venice italy.
Hello! I’m glad our videos make you bond with your family! God bless you and I pray your dad gets well soon! <3 All you need is love!:*
Hi there! My finding your blog was sort of an accident but definitely not regretful. It’s funny how watching Elmo’s “Teach Me How To Dougie” video ended up with me reading your blogs. Like you, I have passion for writing though I mostly write poems and with my circumstance, being a mom comes first before my love for anything else. More power! =)
Thanks for dropping by!:)
I always check your blog (and Divine Lee’s blog too) almost everyday.. And waiting for any updates.. Since nabasa ko na halos lhat ng andto sa blog mo.. I don’t know, bgla ako napunta sa videos mo.. And super tawang tawa lang ako sa “DEYYNN” video mo!! Hahaha.. Ano yung binulong mo sa last part? Ilang beses ko pinanood yun but still I can’t understand.. Haha! Keep blogging ang inspiring! :)) TC!
