| rakrakan |
a few friends and i watched rockestra last month. sandwich, imago, silent sanctuary, cambio, sugarfree, and twisted halo rocked the stage. kakaiba kasi they were accompanied by the manila symphony orchestra. ang sarap marinig ung distinct sound ng violin against the wail of the electric guitar. even the boys of the m.o.s. were headbanging along when sugarfree took to the stage. iya of imago has a voice as multi-layered as the yellow maria clara dress she wore that night. raymund marasigan performing onstage reminded me of some british act who made their mark during the 80s. the crowd went crazy all night.
nakakamiss mag-headbang. i was a little sad because i didn't know a single song unlike 80% of the crowd that night, which by the way, was composed mostly of high school or college students.
pero ok na rin. ika nga, music is the universal language. di man ako nakasabay sa kantahan, nakasabay naman ako sa indakan at sigawan. at iyon ang nagsimula ng isang mahaba at masayang gabi. |

| buddy |
some days i like you. most days i'm indifferent to your presence - like paper weight for an empty desk.
in a snap you turn into a friggin' ass, and i realize again that i do not know you; wish not, care not to know who you really are.
as the saying goes, "keep your friends close and your enemies closer." and that's the closest you'll ever get, buddy. |

| survival of the revivals |
"di mo na kailangang magalinlangan
kung tama ang gagawin mo.
basta't wag kalimutang magdahan-dahan
kung di sigurado sa kalalabasan
kalalabasan ng binabalak mo..."
recently heard a revival of "maling akala" by a band. to me, it did not and cannot outdo the genius and wit of eraserheads. i had (had kasi di ko na alam kung saan napunta) a copy of their first album, and memorized all the songs before the second album came out. unfortunately the first was to be the last as well. on the other hand, i memorized and sang along to the hits that followed. un nga lang, nawala na si ely buendia, and eraserheads stopped being the eraserheads.
because i cannot listen to nu107 on our office radio, i am forced to listen to pop and love songs. "popular radio" nowadays play 90% revivals round-the-clock. i think because there is a lack of new material around, or vhenee saturno experiences writers' block most of the time (ganyan talaga ata pag may risky "h" at tatlong "e" sa pangalan). that or ayaw nyang pakantahin si sarah geronimo ng composition nya.
that is not to say revivals should be banished to whence it came, just that it be kept to a minimum. kung kailangang ibenta ang album ng isang baguhang "artist", siguraduhin naman na may kakaibang twist ang material. hindi iyong gayang-gaya ang bawat nuance ni ely buendia o ng smokey mountain. o kung hindi mo matapatan ang "love moves in mysterious ways" ni julia fordham, eh what's the point pare?
buti pa ang ilang mga banda. palibhasa marami sila, pwede silang magpalitan ng ideas that give birth to new songs. pagpahingahin na muna natin sina vhenee at louie para maka-recharge sila. utang na loob. |

| monday na naman? |
sakit ng likod ko. kaninang umaga ko pa ginagawang shield ang likod ko para hindi makita ng officemate ko mga pinaggagawa ko. ilang websites na napuntahan ko simula kaninang umaga. masakit na rin mata ko kakatingin ng pictures ni angelina, jessica, jennifer. alam na alam ko na rin status ng mga relasyon nila, at mga sinuot nila sa mga aktibidades na pinuntahan nila.
nag slightly-extended lunch break na rin ako kanina kasi late na rin ako nag lunch. balik surfing na naman ako after lunch.
nabasa ko na rin mga latest posts ng mga tao. panay rin ang pindot ko sa "next" button na nagdala sa akin sa isang blog na nagpo-post ng nude pics ng mga babae. again, paganahin ang shield. meron din akong napuntahan na cool cool site ng cool cool cartoons. napalitan ko na rin twice ang desktop ko.
naka-chat ko na rin pinsan ko at marami kaming napagkwentuhan tungkol sa byahe nila sa boracay. nakausap ko na rin si kom tungkol sa robbery kanina sa baba ng building.
naubos ko na rin baon kong tinapay kanina at nakaubos na rin ako ng isang C2.
shet. 4:19 pa lang. |

| movie fan |
wasn't really a big movie fan until xty re-introduced me to the experience. we've watched a lot of movies together. nag movie-marathon na rin during weekends hanggang magka-migraine kami pareho sa sobrang panonood. at naranasan din namin pumila at makipagaway, to learn later on na napanood na pala namin ang pinipilahan namin. meron ding experience na palipat-lipat kami ng mapapanooran kasi sangdamakmak ang taong gustong manood ng spiderman sa first showing day nito (kasi kasi).
marami na rin kaming napanood na paulit-ulit pa rin namin pinapanood, tulad ng face-off. di rin namin maintindihan kung bakit tuwing pinapalabas sa hbo eh tinatapos talaga namin hanggang sa dramatic ending. on cue, magkakatinginan kami kasi naiyak (na naman!) kami habang papasok si john travolta at andun ang asawa't anak nya. ewan, lagi kaming nabibiktima ng ending na yun.
favorite rin namin ang lord of the rings trilogy. ilang weekends na namin inulit iyon. pero hanggang ngayon, di ko pa rin makuhang mag-cr o magluto habang naka-play ang movie.
syempre, di rin mawawala sa listahan ko ang mr. and mrs. smith. syempre pa. pero twice pa lang namin napanood iyon, in fairness - sa sinehan at pagkabili ng dvd.
meron din namang movies na ayaw namin ulitin. the titles escape me now, kasi nga forgettable movies eh. but i would like to watch vanilla sky again. saw a preview of it while on the bus the other day. artsy daw dapat ang dating ng movie tulad ng "open your eyes", pero dahil si tom cruise ang bida eh na-commercialize kaya di masyadong kinagat ng tao.
gusto ko rin mapanood ulit ang before sunset, if only to hear "waltz" again. saka maraming-marami pang iba na sarap namnamin ng kwento at soundtrack.
gusto ko rin pala panoorin ang war of the worlds. pero saka na. i-digest ko muna what little i understood the second (the first doesn't count) time i saw it. |

| bagong post |
sabi ni ikabod kagabi, ang boring daw ng blog ko kasi walang bagong post. mabuti pa si kom meron nang bagong uploaded pics kaya updated na blog nya.
e anong magagawa ko, wala akong maisip na isulat. ayaw ko naman gayahin ung pag-post ng theme song tulad ni eyed at bananarit kasi wala naman sad song na nababagay sa akin ngayon. ayaw ko rin naman dugtungan ang private thoughts ni len kasi baka may # 3 pa iyon. wala rin akong maisip na short saying ala sasiya; o n.i.k.e. acronym na babagay sa a.d.i.d.a.s. ni relinqwish. wala ring juxtaposition of thoughts and positions na naglalaro sa isip ko tulad ng kay ratatitat.
ay ewan... wala akong bagong post. for now anyway. |
