pasalubong from baguio

July 27, 2009 · 6 Comments

i meant to post this immediately after returning from baguio… sobrang busy lang talaga. pero ngayon i made it a point to find time for this. i took a lot of photos in baguio, not as many as i wished i could have done kasi nga umuulan pero i took some good ones pa din.

dahil, madalas na-miss ko ang mga family and friends ko at virtual friends ko (kasi nga hindi ako nag oonline dun)… ang mga ito eh para sa mg blog buddies ko :)

para ke rhea, dahil pareho tayong mahilig mag-coffee at alam kong magugustuhan mo sa gecko.

wandering…

beautiful copper pendant

beautiful copper pendant

i have been in a daze lately, not knowing how to move on and wondering what kind of life i am living. i often think i am lost because i just let the tide take me to wherever… i just follow life around.

does it matter then that i wander and wonder?

keep calm…

June 3, 2009 · 2 Comments

i decided to work from home again today. since most of my managers are away for an off-site event, i felt i needed to be away from the office to and concentrate on the things that needs to be done at work. those things i am not able to do at the office lately due to a lot of distractions. diba nga i feel na sometimes i am more efficient if there are less meetings, less phone calls… less people to see ;-)

during break times, i would surf my favorite sites and then i happen to see the poster below… just timely now when i am in that stage in life where you have decided to be take the risk, wait and hope for the best (career-wise)…

i wish i have this in my room and in my office space...

sharing with you… this poster is for sale in ETSY.COM.

this morning…

i had my random nice thing : i saw these beautiful fallen flowers in the parking area…

nice!

nice!

kasi we live in a place where there is only one parking slot given, so some days of the month sa labas ako nakaka park sa ilalim ng mga puno ng calachuci. yup, my car was covered with these blooms when i saw it this morning. nag mukha sya tuloy nagsa santacruzan :-) pero before i was able to capture it in a photo my sister has cleaned up using her umbrella.

pretty pink blooms

top 5 eraserheads the final set experience

March 8, 2009 · 3 Comments

my recap – eraserheads the final set…

eheads-poster

1. the opening song was magasin! one of my favorites! the crowd wet wild, meron pang fire works sa stage! binago pa ni ely ang lyrics …. “pero pangit ka pa nun… hanggang ngayon…”, i was hoping they would start the concert with this song and they did! then after several songs… raimund handling over his drumsticks to jazz of itchyworms band to sang lead in insomya, alkohol and slo mo. he’s the one with the most energy among the four i would say during that night. he would ran from one end of the stage to the other and even sing very close to ely and they would share a mike! siguro nga talagang they have finally called truce and have set aside differences. they made a lot of fans happy with this :-D

2. kita sa concert that it was thoughtfully staged with great consideration for ely’s condition : they started the 2nd set lounging, they did accoustic versions fo julietearjerky and pare ko. para tuloy sobrang nostalgic ang dating when they sang pare ko that way. one time in the concert, ely shouted — okay lang ba kayo? crowd — OO! then some would shout back — ikaw ba okay lang??? hehehehe… mukha namang okay sya.

3. different renditions of their all time hits : kailan – with only the piano playing, kayang kaya pa rin ni ely even thought kitang kita na pagod na sya, minsan – nostalgic again when they sang this because this is one of my favorites again being a dorm girl myself, overdrive - meron fire works sa stage! (raimund smiled when the first spark happened, he was obviously pleased), alapaap - i have never heard it performed this good ever at syempre ang huling el bimbo – which was their finale (not!) and lasted for 6 minutes tops! they sang it like it will be the last time they will. 

4. the crowd is composed of a sea (yes dears, ganun kadami) of fanatics who sang together with the band song after song. ely need not say – sing! kanta! kayo naman! because almost everyone knew the song by heart. everyone knew and is waiting for superproxy but is not sure how they will considering they are planning to sing this with francis m (rip), so when they did, the crowd went wild and sang with them. ely and raimund did the rap part together. they even sang francis’ kaleidoscope world.

5. the best treat of all was when the final finale (oo meron nun). after huling el bimbo, when all the fireworks are done, ely had said thank you, we are the eraserheads! they gathered together akbay-akbay, tapos yung giant screens back to mtv promo videos na naman, we were on our way out bumili lang muna kami ng iinumin, biglang si raimund said — gusto nyo pa ba?, then andun na si buddy, mamya sabi ni raimund, tawagin nyo si ely then andun na si ely then sabi tawagin nyo si markus. the crowd went wild again! we see ely, raimund and buddy talking on what to play. finally sabi ni ely – three for the road. they performed with ely just singing nalang - ligaya, sembreak ang toyang. such a treat!
