.ROCK FOR A CAUSE.

This is to help out my sistahs from MC! They are organizing a rock concert called Takipsilim.

TAKIPSILIM is a rock concert for a cause. They decided on the name Takipsilim because it could mean two things: twilight, and if taken literally, a shelter. All proceeds will be given to Bantay Bata to give more ill-fated children shelter. Takipsilim will feature some of the country’s most requested musical performers [Kjwan, Imago, Chicosci and Sponge Cola] as well as amateur high school bands.

Details:
Friday, February 3, 2006

Theywill be getting 6 more bands for the line-up. If you are interested, please contact Cheddar de Leon:

.M.Y.M.P. IS LOVE.

My gosh! Kakauwi ko palang from the M.Y.MP. concert. Grabeh, it was such a blast!! I'll go narrate my happenings. My dad fetched me a little later than the usual so medyo nainip ako sa kakahintay pero ok lang. Hehe. After he fetched me, we went to S.M. North Edsa to have my I [Heart] M.Y.M.P. shirt. Siyempre fashionista ko kaya dapat maganda outfit ko sa concert dibuh! I also bought the latest albums of Madonna and Destiny's Child. Love it. Gusto ko rin sana yung bagong C.D. ng The Corrs pero next time nalang! Afterwards, we went to MC to fetch my sistahs already. Upon arriving home, I decided to take a nap. Hehe. Pagkagising ko, nagprepare na ko for the concert. Ligo, kain and bihis. I wore my Levis distressed jeans and my usual black chucks and my I Love You Fedora. Yup, wala pa shirt ko nun! So nag pangbahay muna ko. Finally, dumating na si daddyoe. Kakaclaim lang nung shirt. I wore the shirt and off I went to the M.Y.M.P. concert with my little sister. Yes, lil siz ko sinama ko. I know, I could have brought a ka-Unleashed, a gal pal or better yet a tipsy but I brought my little siz and I won't have it the other way. The waiting part for the concert to begin was sooo boring! Grar. Buti nalang, I made friends with our seat mates. Hehe. Ang tagal tagal talaga mag start nung concert. Feel ko kabisado ko na yung commercial ng Lulu Castagnette at Maui and Sons! Paulit ulit eh! Hehe. After a decade or so, nagsimula na rin. Juris and Chin emerged on stage. Juris was wearing a fabulous orange halter dress on top of cute sequine embelished jeans. Chin was looking oh so cute in his white M.Y.M.P tee and a tuxedo. Tipsy ko si Chin eh, F.Y.I.! Hehe. Their first song was "I Don't Want To Wait In Vain" then "Get Me", then bleh...I forgot about the order of their songs na! Haha. They did a "tribute-to-other-acoustic-artists" thing. They sang "Pagdating ng Panahon" by Aiza, "Moonlight in Paris" by Paulo Santos and "Let Me Be The One" by Jimmy Bondoc. They also did a "we-wished-we-wrote-these-songs" part. I forgot the songs though, haha. Afterwards, Southborder was there to sing with them. Juris is soo versatile talaga from acoustic she went to R&B!! Oh dibah! Juris also sang the Darna theme song! Astig astig... Then change of outfit. She wore a yellow coat emblazoned with M.Y.M.P. and a white skirt over jeans. She sang some Avril hits and some other punk/pop songs. Sabi ko sa inyo eh! Versatile siya! She also did a Madonna medley. Should i repeat?! V-E-R-S-A-T-I-L-E! Meigash. Hehe. My favorite part was when she sang "Because You Love Me" for her mom. Her mom was actually crying! Ang ganda talaga. This concert was totally the bomb! I loved it. I was so happy na I got to sneak in my camera again. Haha. Pero konti lang pictures ko, I was to preoccupied with watching the show! Besides, I may not have pictures but these memories will be in my heart forever.

.ALMOST CONFISCATED DIGI CAM.

My digi cam was almost confiscated awhileago!! Kainiz..Pinaglaruan ko pa kasi during SSP. Buti nalang mabait si Ms.Demesa. Haha. Oh well, ito lang nangyari ngayon. So excited for the M.Y.M.P. concert tomorrow!! Bye guysh!!

.I LOVE BAZAARS.

I had such a blast today!! My mom and I went to the Vintage Bazaar in Rockwell. Actually, before going to Rockwell, we went to Tendiesitas first. It was so fun there. Ikot lang ng ikot. I didn't really buy anything kasi meron na ko nung mga ganun. I liked this M&M Shirt though from Quick Change but it was a too expensive. P590!! My gosh. After going to Tendiesitas, we went to Rockwell already. I really had a fun time. I first went to I Love You. I've always wanted to go there kasi I always see their clothes in magazines. I bought so many things there. I bought their signiture I Love pins. I saw this really cute fedora hat but I didn't buy it YET. Then I strolled around some more. I stumbled upon Kate Torallba's booth! Woot. I love KT. I got to get her calling card. She is soo making my prom outfit. Then strolled around some more, I saw Tessa Prietto-Valdez!! Woot Woot!! But I was in fanboy mode so I think I startled her. Wahaha... Then went to Vintage Pop. I bought a red wooden G for my room. Then I passed by I Love You and so the fedora again. I really couldn't resist it so I asked money from my mom and I just bought it. Woot Woot. And I also bought two teddy bear brooches for P300. And one teddy bear brooch was sold for P150 but I got to buy two from the price of one. Yes naman! Hehe. Then I went to Powerplant Mall itself and bought The Pussycat Dolls CD and this CD mix with the song Ever After in it. My mom called me to meet her in FCUK. I saw these cute flip-flops from FCUK but I wasn't able to buy it. Dang. Babalikan ko yun.

.PROJECT BLUES.

Juno and Josh are at my house today. We are currently doing our English project. We're having a lot of fun! Ang saya saya talaga, linagay namin ung iPod shuffle ni Juno dun sa speakers ng computer ko. Sayaw lang ng sayaw ako dito! Grabehness... We also had a good dinner. Sooper dooper yummy lechon! OHMIGOD!! I can't seem to get through Y!M. I've been trying to sign up but an error message keeps on popping and says that my account is already in use! We tried to go online using Josh's and Juno's account but the same thing happened! Pinaglalaruan kaya kami ng tao?!! May galit ba kayo samin, ano ba! Gosh. Someone help us!! Sayang naman 300+ friends ko!! Madelete pa yun. Grar. Anyways, if you're online, please tell me what's happening.

.SOCIAL BUTTERFLY IN ACTION.

We had our interaction today. It was so much fun. Pagdating namin dun, we were greeted by usherettes. Sila A.J., Patch, Ivana and Mayen. Siyempre I greeted them agad and became friendly! Tapos, hinatid nila kami dun sa venue. Then Nikki greeted me na. We were the emcees. So nag activities nalang and stuff. Masaya naman yung activities. Tapos nag perform na sila. Ang galing galing nila sumayaw. Breakdancers mehn! My class didn't do so well in the presentation though. Pfft. Tapos nagkaawarding kami. Nanalo ko ng Interaction Prince. Oh dibuh, for the first time prince ako! Hehe. Then nagsnacks na. I made the people sign the grafitti board. Tapos nagexchange of tokens and grafitti board. And my favorite part. PICTURE TAKING! Hehe. Nagloko camera ko so walang flash. Grar. Nanakawin ko nalang pictures ni Nikki sa Multiply. Pfft. Then bumalik na kami ng bus. Vanity stroke and nag picturan parin kami dun. Nabagsak nga lang camera ko. Pero ok lang. This day ended with a wrecked camera and one stressed student. But hey, it was helluva FUN.

.SWEET SWEET SIXTEEN.

A child only gets to be born once. And in one year you only get to cross out ONE day in the Calendar to be truly yours. What am I talking about? Your birthday, of course. Duh. And so far, this year has got to be the best birthday I ever had. It was as if the heaven was at my side doing all these good things for me. Like in A.P., my group did another splendid job in our presentation. Ms. Agduma said that we were really good. Praise from teachers already makes my heart melt. And in Computer, Juno and I got bonus points. I am so thankful that I have a blog already thus making me know some HTML. Woot. Anyways, the highlight of my day was when we ate in Kape. We had such a splendid time. We celebrated my birthday sa Kape. Bonding with your friends, I must say, is the best birthday gift you could ever have. Not even the most flamboyant hat can beat the gift of friendship. I really love the Unleashed birthday card my friends gave me. Napaiyak niyo ko! At alam niyong, hindi ako umiiyak! Pero nung binabasa ko yun, napaiyak talaga ko. Narealize ko kasi na I really do have friends that love me. :) After this day, I made a little conclusion: everytime my age increases, the bond with my friends and i also increases. Thanks to Aaron, Imam, Josh, Juno, Marc, Mico, Paolo, Rem and Ryan for sharing with me my special day and making it oh so fabulous.

.HOW A BAD DAY CAN MAGICALLY TRANSFORM INTO A FABULOUS EVENT.

We had our A.P. presentation awhileago. I'm going to tell it now. Maganda naman yung napresent namin. Kompleto costumes and props nung maglalaro and ang tarush ng pag host ko! So masasabi ko talaga na magaling kami. But then, the group before us did something loathsome. Kasi "walis ting ting " didn't have any props so kinufla niya yung arnis sticks namin. Siyempre napansin ko diba so inagaw go sa kaniya. Pag pasok niya wala siyang props. Eh dapat pala sumpit yung arnis stick na yun. So "walis ting ting" and "doggie" was like "may unggoy sa labas! sumpit!". Ako yung sinusumpit nila. So siyempre na-meno ako diba! Kainiz talaga sila. Grar. Kung pwede ko lang sila patayin, pinatay ko na sila. Next, sa Filipino naman we had to choose the entry for our Palig. Walang nagcocooperate so nag walk out si Mr. Lacson. Grabeh, bad day talaga ang drama. Dismissal time, naglalakad ako sa Edsa Walk. Tapos bigla nalang sinabi ni Marc na sasabay siya sakin! Linagay na pala niya gamit niya sa car ko! Kaps ng muks. Pero ok lang. Pumili kami ng cake sa Red Ribbon. Isa lang ang masasabi ko: MALANDI. Haha. Tapos nag NBS kami. Ang gaga gaga ni Marc, bumibili ng gamit para sa card ko eh sakin nga siya sasabay. So nakita ko na materials niya. Pero ok lang, masusurprise parin ako noh! Hehe. After our mini bonding session, medyo umokey na feeling ko. Paguwi ko sa bahay, my mom gave me her early birthday present. It was a red Che Guevara water flask!! Woot. I love Che Guevara items. Grabeh, yun talaga nagpasaya sakin! Wahaha. I could be so superficial. Anyways, hanggang dito nalang. Can't wait for tomorrow!

.HONEY, IT REALLY IS.

This week for me has got to be the most stressfull yet fun week ever. For the whole week, we would all have presentations! For Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we have an A.P. Culture Project thing. Our country is Japan. Woot!! Anyways, awhileago we just had our Filipino radio play presentation. Our teacher liked our presentation. I really hope our group be the one to get picked for the Palig. *cross fingers* We practiced a bit for A.P. during SSP, then went home. Grabeh! Imagine this: 2 bags both full and big, 1 paper bag also full, 1 C.D. player and 1 Coleman water jug! Talk about heavy!! I carried all those from the Second Year Wing to the ITC. If you've been to Ateneo, you'd know that those places are planets apart! Anyways, upon arriving home. I tried doing my Math homework! I was really stumped. Number 8 palang ng Working Excercices A di ko na masagutan! Then bad luck happened: BROWNOUT. Damn. Well, I just texted some of my friends, and lukcily electricty was back. I did my Math homework again, still no luck. I called Juno and asked for help. That's when I got the answers right. Then I just fixed my stuff for school and researched for a logo of a T.V. show that we would use for our A.P. project. Dito nalang muna folks! Sayonara! [feel na feel na ang Japan! Wahaha]

.TUTUBAN AT ITS FINEST.

I went to Tutuban today. Tutuban is located in Divisoria. No, this blog isn't about this day being my first time in Divisoria and how I think that it's nice. It's imposibble for this day to be my first time in Divisoria! Hello, I practically grew there. I've been going to Divisoria ever since I was 5 years old. We have a shop there eh. Haha. Anyways, that was just a bit of F.Y.I. Going back, I went to Tutuban to look for a Japan umbrella for our A.P. project. I first went to The P99 Store cuz that's where I saw one before. Out of stock na sila. Dang. So, I just walked around and searched for it. I went to my favorite Costume Store in Tutuban located at the Center Mall. They had one but it was super small!! So I just went to Michelle's Lace Center (MLC) to buy sequins my sister needed and some ribbons for the sashes for our Interaction with STC. Right beside MLC was a small stall with a mish mash display of things. Meaning, they don't have any specific items sold. Haha. I saw some umbrellas displayed. Normal ones. But then being the persistent shopper that I am, I went there and asked if they had a Japan umbrella. Luckily, they did have Japan umbrellas. Hidden at their stock room. Woot! Woot! Originally, it was P250. Like ohmeigahd! But as what I said, I've been going to Tutuban since I was 5 years old. I've memorized the rules of the trade. So, I made tawad. From P250 it became P140. Galing ko noh! Well, one bonus is me being gay. Patawanin ko lang sila at lumandi ako dun mababawasan na nila. Next was, I was also a tenant. Everybody knows that if you're also a tenant no matter if your stall is in the furthest area of the mall, you gotta give tawad! So I snagged the umbrealla already. Then I saw something so wonderful. A display of trucker caps! If you really know me that well, you would know that one hat was enough to make me leap. But a display of 20 trucker caps?!! I wanted to buy them all but sadly I didn't have enough money. Mind you, if I did have enough money, I would buy them all. I had my eyes set on the fuchsia Von Dutch cap with Mickey Mouse prints. But I remembered that the money I had was my dad's. So I called him up and asked him if I could buy it. He said yes!! Woot Woot! So I bought the hat. Yipee. Babies, you have a new sister! I went home from my Tutuban trip with a huge grin on my face and replaced the cap I was wearing with the new one I just bought.

.PROFESSIONAL BUM IN ACTION.

My Filipino group mates went in my house to practice for our radio play. Ala ata kaming nagawa. Haha. Josh and I were just listening to my CD's! Haha. Sure, we did have one round through of the script. That's it. Sana nalang maging magaling kami sa Monday. I made the nametags for our interaction on Wed. (Nov.9 *hint* *hint*). If you don't know what's happening on Nov. 9 aside from our Interaction, you are not my friend. Hmph! I must admit, the nametags really look nice! Anyways, I tried doing my math homework. I got it. Nasagutan ko nga number 3 nung part A eh. But we're supposed to do part A and B nos.3 and 5. Oh, well I'll do the 3 more tomorrow! Haha. I am such a sloth.

.HAGARDNESS.

Grabeh na toh to the max! Todo na ever to the highest level! I am sooper dooper hagard right now! My day started with me literally panicking. I woke up at 7:30 AM today and I had to meet with my A.P. group mates 8:30 in NBS Katips! Hello! 30 minutes of preparing is not enough! So I ate fastly, took a bath then prepared my outfit. I wore my army green cargo capris, my light blue Penshoppe "Everybody Loves Me" printed tee, my blue sequined emblazoned trucker cap and my blue Bayo flip flops. I arrived in NBS Katips at about 8:45-ish. My group mates wasn't there. So much for preparing fast. I decided to go to Kodak to have some pictures developed. Turned out they were still close. So I just walked to McDo then went back to Kodak. Closed parin sila pero pumasok na ko sa loob. Andun na yung lady so pinadevelop ko nalang pics ko! Haha. Pasaway to the max. Then, I walked again going back to NBS Katips. Grabeh! Soooper iniit!! Sarado pa NBS that time. Grar. So hinintay ko sila magbukas. Tagal tagal nila! Finally, nagbukas na rin. Bumili ako ng stuff for our project then dumating na group mates ko. Buti naman. We went na to my house and started. Grabeh! Hindi pa kami nagsisimula pagdating namin. Nagbabasa lang sila nung libro ko at naglalaro. Pero nasimulan na naman namin. We researched for stuff and I did our scrapbook. Kakapagod grabeh. 6:00 na di parin kami natatapos. Grar. Natapos na rin lahat ng research. Our scrapbook is also half way done. Kukunin ko nalang pics bukas at lalagay sa scrapbook. I am so tired. Pfft.
