When Is Really It?

TicketNet says May 16th SM Mall of Asia also says May 16th But John Mayer's website says October 1st So when is it really?

Another Phone Lost

Image
The first time I lost a phone was when the hippest was still Nokia 5110. Bought it for 7k with a Globe SIM that cost Php900. Cell phone signals then (of either Smart or Globe) sucked. I would go by the front door of the shop to get a decent signal whenever I wanted to text/call. One time I accidentally left it on a table by the door when a client called me for something. It was gone when I finally remembered I left it there. The next one was a less-than-3-month-old Nokia 6260. It was so cool back then. 18k. It was on my desk while I was doing some paper works. I just noticed it was gone when I needed to text someone. That fateful day, I decided to never buy a cell phone that exceeded 4k. So I bought a Nokia 3100 and liked it. But just like the previous ones, it got stolen. But this time I knew who took it. I never told anyone about it, though, because he's a friend. I didn’t even confront him. I valued our friendship more than the phone. But I don’t he...

Glee - Sue Sylvester Does "Vogue"

Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) with her Glee version of Madonna 's Vogue . I so love Glee . Don't you?

Rachelle Ann Go Singing Fame

I don't know what happened to the sound but this was the first vid I took at the Domination IV last Saturday. Uploaded it just yesterday. Kodak ZX1 records .mov videos and I'm on Windows, which means I lack editing tools for .mov files. But still, this is a raw video. Wasn't able to edit it cuz the video quality becomes fugly when I convert it to avi or mpg. Here's Rachelle Ann Go singing Fame. The video is noisy overall. But there are some parts that the quality gets really good. And those are the parts where I didn't zoom. So that's the trick, don't zoom. My PLDT DSL Small Biz Lite connection uploaded this 283MB vid in 4 something hours. Such pain.

Watch: Charice - "Pyramid" Official Music Video

Eureka! Here's the official music video of Charice 's Pyramid .

Charice’s Pyramid – Official Music Video

Image
I love Charice. And I love her even more in this official music video for Pyramid . I can’t find it on YouTube, though. And Oprah’s website doesn’t allow embedding. But if you’ll just click here , you can find the most talented girl in the world with her very first official MV. Like a pyramid, like a pyramid, hey!

Meralco, Have Mercy

Image
This is in support of the victims of Meralco's unfair price increase. We still don't have our bill. I'm really afraid of how much my last month's 16k would increase. I hope and pray it won't be like the ones I've been reading about. Join the Facebook protest page . I know it can be heard.

D' Survivors

I'm excited to see D' Survivors , even just for the Brazilian-Japanese models alone - Akihiro Sato , Daniel Matsunaga , and Fabio Ide . Rocky Salumbides , Lemuel Pelayo , Don Mendoza , Jubail Andres , Aaron Tuiza , and Kerbie Zamora are also in this film.

Domination IV

Image
I'm still floating from half-bliss. And all I want to do is stay in bed and dream of MOA Sunset Strip forever. LoL! So I went with four kids at the Domination IV. Not really kids cuz they're already in college. But they're younger than I am. So kids. We arrived at SMX quite late. 5 pm. And Parokya ni Edgar was almost finished performing when we were able to enter the hall. Like by the time we saw the stage, they're already gone. But who knew Parokya would be performing? Neither did we know that Mark Bautista and Rachelle (spell?) Ann Go were also there. They're endorsing a new e-Games title, Superstar, a karaoke-thing. Ehem ehem. Better get my vocals ready. One lucky bastard won the bidding for a PS3 Slim for 200 something pesos. And how much is PS3 now? 20k? It made Kenneth and Dan want to buy cards and bid at the Winila booth, too. But I spoke to them against it. It's gambling, people! left pic was at Robinsons; right one was at the Domi Cosplay wa...

New Toy

Image
I'd been wanting a Flip camcorder. Not because it's hip, but because it's the cheapest camcorder around. I even disregarded the fact that Flip Ultra's memory can only accommodate one hour of videos. What I really wanted was a Kodak ZX1 because of its expandable memory, but Flip's on sale and you can even get one for free if you buy specific models of HP printers. But still, expandable memory for me is much more important. And then the Universe conspired and gave me a ZX1 yesterday! I didn't know you could even take still shots with this toy, although only 3 megapixels but it's fine. There's Princess on top of Angel's old gown, photo taken with the ZX1. The ISO is so high you can take pics in the darkest of rooms.  So ZX1 doesn't have that built-in flip-out USB arm that Flip has, but who needs it when the memory is fixed? At least I won't be uploading videos to my computer every 1 hour of video-taking. Thank you Lord...

Libera in Manila

Image
I love boys choirs. Closing my eyes while listening to their music takes me to another level of happiness. I was channel surfing this morning when I passed by Studio 23 and saw Libera. I stayed to watch. At the end of the music video, an ad was flashed. They're gonna be at the RCBC for a concert on April 16th! Libera is an all-boy choir from the UK, and they'll be at the RCBC Plaza Carlos P Romulo Theatre at 3pm and 8pm on April 16, 2010. But before that, they will have a promotional appearance at The Podium on April 14, between 5pm and 7pm. Ticket prices are 850, 650 and 500 pesos for Orchestra, Lodge and Balcony respectively. Call 9994364275, 9063703129, 9189181367 for more info. *Photo and info are via Facebook. I'm just not sure if the numbers given are local numbers.

Don't!

Has just finished watching The Vampire Diaries episode 16. Why, oh, why would Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) want to become a vampire! Does he look like a vampire to you?

Barbie with the XLR8

I really like watching this new teenstar named Barbie. I used to watch First Time religiously until I got a little busy I couldn't find myself at home every 6pm. Starmometer has this clip of a new(?) boyband called XLR8 performing on Party Pilipinas . And Barbie, with another girl from First Time , is dancing while the boyband is performing. I just find Barbie and the other girl so young to be XLR8's object of affection in the sing-and-dance.

Glee Gone Wild

Image
The main characters of our favorite show, Fox's Glee , are on the cover of Rolling Stones . I specially love Lea Michele on this photo. I've seen enough YouTube of her to say that she can do a lot more, and this cover tells us she can really go beyond Rachel Berry. I'm just sad that Mark Salling isn't on this.

Crazy Kid

Would you shave your eyebrows, as in totally shave your eyebrows like this kid? And would you do it right before your grad pic is to be taken?

Alay Lakad

I originally planned to leave at 8 pm last Thursday but the kids I went with wanted to leave earlier so we agreed to leave at 6. But of course one or two arrived late and it was almost 7 when we finally left. The bus ride to Crossing was so fast. Sitting at the back seat of the bus, we could feel every hump of the road, and every turn was so magnifide it was almost like a carnival ride. Passing by Magallanes, we saw groups of people already walking from that point. I didn't wanna walk on EDSA, though. It's too dangerous for me, especially with vehicles going so fast on the very light traffic. But then I kinda wished buses went that fast on normal days. We were already at Crossing a few minutes past 7 but walked to Ortigas when we realized we were alone. LoL! We found more people as we went along, until everyone had to stop at one point and look how thick the human traffic was! I found it sad, though, that videoke bars were still open that night blasting off worldly mus...
