Goodbye, July! Hello, August!
JULY was a very busy month for me. I attended a number of blogger and non-blogger events, met up with some offline friends on different occassions, reminisced my father’s death anniversary, bonded with my grandparents, shot my second short film, attended the Cinemalaya Cinco Festival for the first time, wrote lots of work-related articles, created an outline for a new story and many, many more. I need to escape from the busy city of Manila waaah…
the 12th of July - Kulitan with Bong and Jade at KK. Deadline: The 12th of August waaah
Today is August 1 and I am looking forward to a much busier month! I will be working on the post-production of my second film later and the first film on Sunday (baliktad! LOL). I registered a number of domains a few months back and i’m planning to post some entries as soon as i have time. I might collaborate with a friend for a new project and I am really hoping it will push through. I will be launching my travel blog anytime and yes…
I’M GOING TO CEBU!
I’m excited to go to Cebu City, the birthplace of my grandfather (though he never really spent his childhood there). Hopefully, I’ll be meeting my Cebu-based relatives and at the same time meet up with ‘online’ and ‘offline’ friends. Keywords on my mind: Edge Coaster, Bantayan, Carcar, Talisay, IAFT, Danggit,Chicharon and LECHON!
Bertday Nyok
Kahit na…
…… nayayabangan ako sa’yo nung iBlog4 at wi-nish ko na sana hindi ka manalo ng psp
…… mas love ka ni Jehz kesa sa akin
…… mas love ka ni Kuya Drew kesa sa akin
…… feeling mo weird ako dahil sumasayaw ako sa isang dance party
…… matagal akong mag-logout sa work kahit may event
…… emo ako at all times
…… palagi mo akong sinesermonan
…… palagi mo akong pinapagalitan na parang bata (feeling mo naman matanda ka na hmp)
…… hinawaan mo ako ng ‘amf’ at ‘T_T’
…… palagi mo akong inaaway sa plurk
…… inaasar mo ako na mahilig ako sa badet
…… palagi tayong nagsusumbatan
…… dinadagdagan mo ang trabaho ko
…… binubuko mo ako sa mga crush ko
…… hindi mo ko hinihintay kung minsan
…… mas concern ka sa camera mo (lols)
Kahit na tawagin ka pang Batang Yagit, Techy Kid, Nitro Saint, Master, Putograper, Patay Gutom, Wins, Winwin, WintWint, Rell, Chairell, Thonz o kung anu-ano pa…
… ikaw pa rin ang Nyok bestfriend ko.
Maligayang Kaarawan Kuya Winston!

Addicted to Acoustic with Princess
Two years ago, I met Princess Velasco at a mini concert. She rendered a special song number and since then, I became a big fan of hers.
A few months after, we became officemates. She is not just a talented performer, but most importantly, a smart lady. Her subordinates and students can attest to that.
Just recently, I found out that she is now a recording artist! Her debut album called “Addicted to Acoustic” is now out in the market for Pho 200 only!
The said laidback acoustic album contains 18 cover songs of some of today’s acoustic hits such as Realize, T-Shirt, Thinking of You, Single Ladies, I Hate This Part, Love Bug and many more! Lucky me was able to find some sample songs and here are some of them:
Taympers Muna!
A lot of exciting stuff happened to me the past few weeks. I met Anne Curtis at the HBC Baranggay Makeover event, I learned more about the benefits of Malunggay, I’ve seen the indie film Dose (which is not really as disturbing as we expected it to be), my father’s 5th year death anniversary, bought a ceramic piggy bank, ate talangkanin at Kaya Restaurant with the grannies, new assignments at work, attended the kadakwento premiere, discovered a very nice japanese restaurant near my place, went out with old friends, recorded boredom videos at Facebook, attended the Cinemalaya Cinco premiere and invested on a worthwhile project out of my earnings. Whew!
As much as I would like to blog about everything, I can’t do it for now (but I will – just give me enough time teehee). I am looking forward to the weekend because I’m about to pursue another passion of mine and that is filmmaking 
I need a break just like the little kids who play pinoy games such as ‘Patintero’ or ‘Langit-Lupa’, TAYMPERS MUNA!

Let’s Talk About the Techy Romantics!
Just last month, a number of bloggers were invited at the Philips Go Gear event at Bonifacio High Street. Aside from the games and presentation of the newest techy gadgets, a number of bands played much to the delight of the guests. One of the bands who made that event very memorable is the indie band Techy Romantics. I am not really familiar with the band until I saw them perform onstage. Their sound reminds me of The Cardigans (Erase/Rewind, Grand Turismo, Lovefool).
The other night, I was lucky to meet Dondi Virrey, the one in-charge with the samples and keys. Thanks to our common friend Chiko Lara. I later on found out a few information regarding the indie band which will soon invade the music scene.
