{Bringing The Good In;
Mood: satisfied; just plain sleepy
Listening to: Strange and Beautiful by Aqualung
As if last night's blunder wasn't enough, I was kept panicky when I woke up yesterday with no water and electricity. Gawd!~ I was frantic enough and tried brainstorming ways on how to get dressed in time for the Battle of the Bands at CSR. After 30 minutes, I surrendered myself to a deep stupor. Good thing is, when I woke at exactly 3 p.m, the water and electricity's back on. Finally!
Around 5 p.m, my dad dropped me off to Market! Market! so I could buy some things. Then I was off for CSR. Arriving 20 minutes after, I was greeted or rather screamed at by Chie when I was at the lobby. I SAW MS. SUELTO SING ONSTAGE! My god!~
After that, I started roaming the place and ended up talking to Kai. For goodness sake, I never saw her that happy upon seeing me. She was like screaming frantically and hurrying towards me, and ended up stomping on my foot. I was saddened that she's about to leave for U.S. FOR good. It was the first (in a few months) AND probably the last time I will see her.
Then, abandoning all attempts to eat dinner I went outside and bought my ticket for the event, talked with some people, encountered not-so-pleasant acquaintances and so on. I was quick enough to raise my guard on THOSE who weren't so nice to me back then, and until now for some bullshit reason. Mind you, they're really pathetic.
Anyhow, Imago was first to go onstage. They sang Spoliarium, Akap, Ewan, Sundo (my current fave!) and the adrenaline-pumping Taralets. And yes, I got my copy of their latest album signed by Aia De Leon and Tim Cacho. Woohoo! Then the program proper for the Battle of the Bands was up.
Although I wasn't quite satisfied with some contestants, still I knew that they're bound to learn a lot from that experience. I'm just perfectly contented that Alternate Spectrum won (go Vitta!). Their drummer, Camille Salva and vocalist, Vitta Hernandez won Best Drummer and Best Vocalist respectively.
CHILI & NO IDEA performed! The latter performed really well (and I was shocked when Pyra played bass for them), but I was really looking forward to the former's onstage performance. And good enough, I wasn't disappointed with it. In fact, I only have well words for them. The first song 'Time After Time' was with vocalist Ikang, while the second was 'Bata by Moonstar88' with Mecca. Unlike the Battle of the Bands last year, I could say that they've improved a lot. I think what made them perform well is that they are not pressured by any competition since they are there just to perform for the crowd. And yes, AGANG ~ you were great out there! You've improved a lot, indeed. To Jam, Maia and Ming ~ good job!
After some cam-whoring moments, I went home with Melai in tow. Then it got me thinking about something. Somehow I couldn't greatly express it here since I'm not quite sure of how reliable things are on the Internet. So, I'll just speak in a quite intimate (and most indirect) manner that I can (somehow manage) to pull off..
.. Thank you for everything. Thank you for understanding things and assuring me that you'll still be there no matter what. Now, I should just let fate take its course.

{Caught Off-guard;
Mood: unknown
Listening to: Maybe Tomorrow by Stereophonics
Well, this post was supposed to be about last Saturday's concert. But I'd just post it some other time so I won't limit my words to what I have in mind right now. For crying out loud, it's already the break of dawn. Rawr!
Well, I made a something that's quite unexplainable. Even I was shocked of what I did.. the hell did I muster enough courage?
Yes, this is one of those days where I get shocked of what I can and cannot do.
Just in:
Imago. Imago! Yey!
Chili (I miss these guys!)
Battle of the Bands.. (nga ba?).. ayos!
.. count me in (kahit P200 ang ticket) !!

{The Christmas Experience 2;
Mood: laid-back
Listening to: Show Stopper by Danity Kane
I just finished the FINAL (at last!) draft of the ticket layout for this year's Christmas Concert. At least for the nth time, I was able to get it right.
If you guys are interested to watch Chicosci, Stonefree, Paramita and Wickermoss perform for this event, just message me here or e-mail me. My contacts are stated below my profile. The ticket will cost 60 bucks for Madocians (a.k.a Manila Doctors College students) and 100 bucks for outsiders. See you there!

{Call on stress for comfort;
Mood: dizzy
Listening to: Save Room by John Legend
The past week has all been such a great learning experience, yet it passed by in such lightning speed that I was caught in. It was a very busy week since we rushed the organization and planning for our upcoming concert for a cause entitled, "The Christmas Experience 2" on December 16. What with such little time to do things, it was hard to squeeze in a little study time for my classes.
Even so, I was able to pull through. It was an accomplishment for me since I lacked sleep or no sleep at all every single day. I have to beat deadlines and beat the time just to settle things. Although it was a great challenge, it was worthwhile. And yet, I was made to think of a certain matter..
During our Theology class last Tuesday, we passed around a paper with our name at the center inclusive of our positive and negative traits. Then, it was our blockmates' turn to write their opinions about ourselves. When I got back my paper, it was frustrating enough that a CERTAIN SOMEONE written something that was part of our Philosophy lecture.. "Do not try to take the role of an adult if you're not prepared or set for it." I was quick to explain it in class that the things and responsibilities I have keeps me happy all throughout. If I wasn't, then I would have screamed my heart out at them if I was sick and tired of it. Whatever, you know who you are. I knew it was you because of your handwriting.
Anyway, I was gracefully inlove right now so things don't seem as bad to me as they were before. Although I was only able to see that special someone once for this week, it brought me happiness. Define happiness? Nevermind.

{New life, new love, new phone?;
Mood: hyped-up/inlove (time check: 12:40 am)
Listening to: Irreplaceable by Beyonce
It feels so nice to not have regular classes for four days. It's been giving me time to get a hold of myself and regain my lost energy (and sleep), for that matter. Well, last Wednesday was one of the 'nose-bleed days' of my life. We had Anatomy lecture and laboratory exams that day ~ a not so cool day for the damned.
But as they say, everything can't go THAT bad in a day. After classes, my mom fetched me from school and she brought with her my new phone. Yey! A Nokia N72 in pearly pink, woohoo!
Anyway, even though I'll be keeping this entry short I would just like to declare something:
Yes, I'm inlove right now. And I'm perfectly fine with my life.
.. and I know that my feelings are true!~ o28
