where falling knives in Fazoli's could kill, but not my enthusiasm.

i spent last night enjoying the concert of Chris Daughtry @ Eastwood City. Saw famillar faces like joyce guerrero, tin gamboa, aaron atayde, jj jenna "she's so gorgeous" jacko, the other jocks of magic 89.9 and of course, the wonderful people of yehey!

met up with the yehey! crew after their meet and greet (they had 2 winners). had dinner then hied off to the venue.

the set-up is very interesting, considering normally that place is not a place you hold something like this, so monoblocs galore, and trees too.

no front act, so once chris came up the stage, the fans drove themselves to the front and took advantage of the empty seats in front. given the techie era, cameras galore. i like how they were kinda lenient on our side with the digital equipment (in other words, wait until you see the pics and videos).

thanks again for paraluman (if not for them, i would not be at eastwood to win the ticket.) and slick rick and e'wood.

reorganizing thoughts and concepts: a post-script on the proper pronunication of Bacon Austria

i am currently holed up in here right now, tired and exhausted from a very eventful past few days. stomach's churnin and rockin, but all good and tolerable.

chilled out with the early returns as seen here with me .


that was before i finally got to see yosha. in the helter shelter (which was supervised by our very own jeff). sitti and olivia were there (pero never got to meet). i also managed to anticipate something that had happened yesterday.

friday brought me an internal interview and then the titanic 4 gigs in 3 places night. now THAT was tiring. this is one of those gigs...
saturday was awesome as las pinas beckoned, with a get-together to be with friends. at that time, there were important things that were said, and there was the drama that came along with it. in the end, i was awarded with a new responsibility. for those who were there, other than your phone, kindly check this site for any new information. feel free to spread out the said information to everybody out there. ika nga, be viral. (look at how the fuss over the e-heads reunion became pretty much a case study on viral marketing)

today was UAAP day. spent the morning knocking out the cobwebs from the night before, then partied with the Pizza Guy and Marley, along with the Hardcore Heckling Community. then sabay na kaming dumayo sa wowowee memorial. 5-0 na ang "The Ateneo de Manila University"

so thursday beckons.... god knows what lies for me this week.

yosha-riffic

if i look and feel bangag today, blame it on the smooth groove of yosha. galing talaga niya. the riffs and grooves were just plain awesome. grabe. astig. yey!

pics and a dark video to follow from there.

cheers to (insert salutation of choice) jeff for the job well done pitching in. next time, let's do the planned groove thing. :)

show no mercy to certain fools

weekend is almost near, i can taste it. looking forward to it, actually. tomorrow is day to re-route. friday is a toss-up, after all, time to meet emily or paraluman, or take a pedicab to cubao. then again, olives are in the horizon with the possibility of some ice. then las pinas is the place to be, chipping and dipping and possibly reuniting the AA altogether. then an ultra-nice matchup.

intimidation calls for restraint. fools are out. take the stand and devolve into a loon. a crazy loon looking to kill and swipe. say whatever. that equates to crap.

all i need is a bite from a neighbor. but then again, what could be better would be a monster and a lynching.

*again, rambling thoughts abound. so take the proper response*

i am just a stupid guy and as such, sumabit lang, kaya eto, twittering.

nakakaaliw ang usap-usapan sa pex / gameface. where pwning just happens.

frankly, i dont give a crap about uniform, especially kung logo ng mga corporate ang isyu.

i also dont give a crap to some thing as well. cause in the eyes of the world, well, i am feared, loathed, disrepected and disliked. happened before, happened again. so sue me. what matters is i am in good graces with the people i value, as long as vice versa is going on.

anyway, i had fun yesterday. cambio rocked the house (no buddy, kaya ok lang na naiwan ko ang matic ko) and lala was great.

fighting fever

vanity is currently a major issue. plus the fact i have a slight fever (blame it on the weatherman)... kahit na di ako nakagimik, masaya ako.

that's all i need to know.

naaliw ako sa coke glasses ng mcdo. i have 3 (so far).

onga pala: may fund raiser gig ang bembol, juan pablo dream at si sitti sa high street on the 31st.

maysh-erona (insert corny joke music here)

* while listening to hip26 *

it is kinda exhausting posting long overdue stuff, as it is taking up space on my flash drive. also keeps me from having dinner. i am kinda hungry right now.

lots of hectic stuff. work has been a bit dragging (not of my doing, though). weekends have been filled with a sudden change of plans and a near change of plans.

belated bday greetings to some of the people in the radio industry. you know who you are. :)

ateneo is 3-0. get out of the way or else feel the power of the pwned!

moonstar88 rocks. so does doing charity work (so cheers to magic 89.9 for the event at eastwood last friday). so is the food at will's attic.

i owe someone pizza raw. hehehe....

i miss terno and the aussie swiss. i maysh moonstar88. i met a nice vietnamese lass (thanks maysh!). i met moonstareros.

upcoming iterinary: lala, route, olive. ultra. olive ulet.

and yes, even if i had two tickets to the red carpet screening to the Dark Knight earlier today, i still would rather go for the game (win or lose).

twittering amalgamated thoughts

i feel good, yet tired this week. looking forward to that 1 day break tomorrow.

oh yes, a uaap game versus adamson. speaking of that, i managed to watch the game at araneta last sunday. and boy, it was a sweet victory. satisfying talaga.

nba free agency is upon us. so elton brand decides to screw the clips and go to philly.

things are afoot. watch and observe.

squatting in maxville

i think everybody knows my loyalty to a certain radio station that i do not have to name....

however, there are times when i go out and listen to others (as it allows a healthy relationship and i get to hear songs that i do not normally get much airplay)... on the way, i managed to meet good people like....

and then there are sooper hot and gorgeous people like...

kaya yun.

anyway, nothing changes. things are still under status quo.

kelly: thanks for signing the book.
quiche lorraine: nice to meet you. hope to get to know you more.
