-- 8/19/07 04:15 am - A Bit Productive...Aside from boredom, I managed to do some other things: »» Retrieved pics from my cellphone~ (after weeks of accumulation. ( [EDIT] Crappy pics underneath. ) »» Did some minor editings on a few previous entries, within 3 of my blog sites, plus maintained the other two mirror blogs. Whew... »» Played and practiced with Cliff for along time. »» Had a slight argument with Rainey awhile ago (early evening), and this time her ex-boyfriend tried to butt in, and texted me a few messages. »» Chatted with online buddies. »» Had an insomnia attack again, so I was able to change my LiveJournal layout. Ooh, I really love RED. Need much more productivity. 8/18/06 03:30 pm - Yesterday with Raine + Item for saleKilled my Boredom Another day without classes... Then minalas ako sa biyahe. Around 4pm na ako nakarating ng McDo Road20 - I was an hour late! Past 7pm na kami natapos -- sinamahan ko siya pasakay ng tricycle pabalik to her dormitory, just as usual. Then umuwi na ako, journeyed my way via Commonwealth. Stopped over sa FCM, bought a new charger (yay), and nakauwi ng bahay before 9pm. Maaga na rin ako natulog, around 10pm. Grabe, anlamig ng panahon.
The Pedal of Metal -- For Sale! I've decided to sell my DigiTech XMM Metal Master. Just a few rusting on the input/output jacks, and some dusts (only needs a few wipes). Functionality is of course 100%. Unit only. (No manual and box) Gonna sell this for 3.2K pesos (FIXED).
Of course, item for trade should be mint/few scratches as much as possible, but it's okay if there are some dings; hence, trades are negotiable... (I might add cash, or vice versa.) Leave me a message for inquiries. 8/17/07 04:35 am - Randomized entry; and yet another stompbox unveiled!»» Had a boring Thursday. But I've learned a lot of information, bits of tiny know-hows, and somehow killed my boredom. Yet I still need to do more things than this. Argh. X___x »» Rainey told me early morning that she will be hanging out with her friends all day; and »» And oh, another boring day coming up -- classes are still suspended. [EDIT] My oh my, no classes until Monday~ (Ninoy Aquino Day!) As others proclaim: 6 days of no school?!?! And this Web I.T. thingie might be moved to another date; previously, the date was changed to August25, due to the previous typhoon. Jeez... »» My bandmate Tan showed me a link to a certain blogger from overseas, which was a random thing regarding Dir en grey, but... ( I miss the good old Dir en grey from jrockmadness ) ...I was surprised, 'coz our band was mentioned; plus, the dude even posted a couple of our YouTube videos in that entry. (Naks, feeling sikat. XD) »» Currently, I'm having some conversations (thru chat) with an online friend which I met just early this year. Last time we chatted was way back April 22 -- that time I asked for her birthday. Anyways, I got updated about her -- she told me she was movin' on... Yep, just another common heartbreak; but that was just the tip of the iceberg. Then I learned that she was already pregnant -- only learned a few days ago. Damn. Very similar to what happened to another online friend I met way back 2003; heck, I even had a crush with her; then after we met in some gig at the now-defunct Rock2Metal bar, it took a long time when we got in touch again, only to find out that she got pregnant with a guy that left her. I easily get affected to these kinds of situations, especially these people being a friend of mine. (In her case, she's an online buddy to me.) Anyways, be strong, girl. »» Again did this out of boredom. ( The delay pedal of the future! ) Convinced? So do yourself a favor and grab one now, fast! 8/16/07 04:47 pm - Entry about happenings way back a couple of days ago; and more... [EDITED]Two Days Ago. Woke up a bit late, but quite enough for my EADMATH class... Also, her ex initially texted me (while I was at school)... "Tol, pagpapaalam ku lng ah, date kami ngaun ni raine, ok lng??" I replied that it would be alright, knowing that he knows the limits; plus, I thanked him for what they did for Rainey last Sunday. Later on, Rainey told me (yeah, a single text message) that she and her barkada are goin' out; and we might not meet at all for that day... so I went home early, around 5pm; slept a bit until before 8pm... As I woke up, I discovered that freakin' ex's reply to my text -- that dude sent me this insulting message: "Dnt worry tol. d ku gagawin ung "gnawa" mu nung girfrien ku pa si raine., may Respeto ako., oki., dnt worry., ^_^" Which [reading between the lines] means I didn't have any respect at all... And yeah, cool thing to bring up the past, eh. I'd thought you just said to Rainey that you wanted to be my friend. Anyways... To you, you bitter son-of-a-bitch: First things first: stop calling me tol, 'coz I ain't your brother, nor your keeper, asshole. Second: I don't have any respect for you, tangina mo. I've kept my patience a long time ago -- I still remembered your text looong time ago -- that stupid threat of yours. Then when I joined your band practice weeks ago, I tried to mingle much with you; but didn't felt any warmth. I just simply disregarded that. But I'm all support for your band, especially to Michael and Jon -- no Orocans nor Monoblocs (get it?); I'd kinda thought I shouldn't have been there at all. Fuck you. Then the message. You're such a bitter faggot, motherfucker. I'm confident enough to say you don't have enough balls at all; proven long time ago, from your previous statements. Grow up, loser. If you want, let's settle this straight once and for all, face to face, as soon as possible. Kaya kitang patumbahin, ungas. Hafta cool down....... There. Then late night, I discovered this thread while browsing PhilMusic forums... Yet another GAS attack for that Fernando Neck!
Yesterday. Didn't ate my breakfast, because I woke up late in the morning -- past 6am! Obviously, we didn't performed any fieldworks, because of the damn rains; instead, we solved for problems in our field manual... Tons of computations, and fortunately they were relatively easy. We were dismissed 30 minutes early -- beacuse the school just then announced the suspension of classes! (Great...) So then I decided to head for Sta. Mesa, but I was trapped in heavy traffic. Before reaching Pureza, I jumped out of the jeepney; then later on, I discovered that the Pureza area was submerged in deep floods; hence the motorists (especially the 'low' ones) weren't moving. Luckily, I hitched in a jeepney that bravely crossed the floods. [EDIT] Finally, retrieved these baha pics from my cellphone...
I met up with numero_unoh's brother in the nearby Jollibee store (across SM Centerpoint), for that Fernando guitar neck (a strat copy one) worth 1.5K pesos.A 21-fret maple one with a rosewood fretboard, and medium frets. Mmmmm. Then I headed to my Ate's place, had lunch there. Me and Rainey met again at McDo -- talked 'bout stuffs, personal matters (especially what happened a day before -- you'll find out later...), emotional talks, and story-tellings. Though we didn't ate there, we bought stuffs outside after staying there past 7pm... Then we met Xeng while inside the Mercury Drug; and finally I accompanied them until their trike ride back to their dorm, and I headed home. Arrived early, around 9pm. With excitement, I checked my newly-acquired Fernando neck to Totchi's body...
Not bad, the neck slot was a bit loose -- I think this calls for another Elegee guitar surgery; but first, I have to sand down the body, for repainting issues. Yeah, my hopes arisen again -- hope for that trash-quality guitar to become usable again,and oh yeah, killer sounding! (Harhar!)
Another thing to worry about. I previously posted (way many months ago; or maybe last year?) that I kinda felt some symptoms of CTS (Carpal Tunnel Shit)... Awhile ago, I came across this thread; and read that Paul Gilbert (guitarist of Racer X, ex. Mr. Big) is suffering from a thing called Tinnitus. Moments later, I found this in the ever-reliable Wikipedia... ( Tinnitus ) Oh well, true, I've been hearing that ringing sound everytime I hear no sounds around me~ (Really, total silence.) I think this is just kinda normal to an average gigster like me; but hearing loss is what I've been worrying about. Damn, gotta find my good ol' earplugs that I've bought long time ago... So friends, while we're still young, take good care of your ears.
Try to read this shit... According to this webpage, "these 7 Columbian youths were taken by Jesus Christ and shown Heaven and Hell. Hear their account of the Glories of Heaven and misery of Hell". Heck, even John Lennon was mentioned here. ( Revelations of Heaven and Hell to 7 Columbian Youths ) Sounds credible? 8/14/07 12:33 pm - Sunday + Monday...Sunday. Had practice with Rtschrck at Gig Studio -- a productive one, despite bein' late for 30 minutes. X___x Now we hafta put our sound tighter by next practice; and add more songs to the playlist... Then after practice, we ate food downstairs, then me and Luciel joined Tan towards their place -- we initially planned a drinking spree for that night. Jun went home first at Pasay, then he told us he will catch up. So we waited for him before we could start. Then around 11pm, but no Jun arrived; so unfortunately, the inuman was postponed -- me and Luciel went home (yeah, we were too groggy). But moments later, Tan later texted that Jun finally arrived. Maybe they drank all night. I arrived home before 12 midnight; and instead of finishing my ESTREMA assignment, I suddenly fell asleep. =___=
Monday. Rushed to school, arrived at my ELEMSUR class on time. During classes, I was multi-tasking -- participating at the lecture, copying notes, and crammin' for my ESTREMA assignment. Did the same at my ELECENG class, but in addition, we had a seatwork. (Fortunately, it was relatively too easy.) And I was able to submit the requirement during ESTREMA class (yet it was still unfinished. T___T) And just had a normal lecture. That moment I already went groggy. After school, I headed to my Ate's place, to fill my tummy (didn't ate lunch T___T) and had a short nap. Then by 6pm I went to McDo Road 20 to meet up with Rainey -- she arrived 30 minutes after, due to school matters. We spent time there until before 9pm. Then I accompanied her on her trike ride on her way back to her dorm. Then I arrived home early -- around 10pm. :) 8/12/07 12:56 pm - Another Acuumulated Happenings Entry... [EDITED]Thursday: Japan Week Stint, Mom and Rainey... Japan Week Gig. Classes were suspended that day, so I woke up a bit late (heheh)... Then pinuntahan ko si Rainey sa likuran ng Entertainment Hall, kasama sina Zel, James, and her online friend na si XYPHER HiRa, na doon niya pa lang na-meet in person. (Galing Aklan pa 'yung girl, hanep!) Later on, pumunta na kami doon sa may stage area, and nandoon na si Ajzone -- he told me na dumaan doon ang mom ko, and interrogated him (!) regarding lotsa stuffs, hahah... Hinintay namin dumating si Adrian; pero dahil gusto na kaming patugtugin, ayun we played agad. After doin' 4 songs, dumating na rin si Adrian (had a break for a short period, para makapag-setup siya)... And dumating din doon sa area namin 'yung mom ko. That time, pinakilala ko na si Rainey sa kanya. Then talked about some matters. (W00t, buti walang masamang nangyari, LOLZ...) Umalis din agad sina mom. Then we finished off our playlist -- may mga nag-request pa sa amin thru tissue papers (heheh); and luckily may lumait sa aming contact for possible gig bookings -- si Sir Jojo. :D Above all, nakapagpasaya naman kami ng tao kahit kaunti, at kahit drained kaming lahat sa energy. (Yup, mga pagod kami. X___x) Pagkatapos, kumain kaming lahat sa Yoshinoya -- free beef gyudon! Pasasalamats. First of all, thanks kay
Friday: Normal School Blues, Hired Gun, etc... Ordinary School Day. Arrived school on time -- had normal lecture on EADMATH, had our open-notes quiz on EFLUMEC (I had a hard time dealing with the problems, though. T___T), and normal discussion in our EBAMENG class; plus we had our midterms and previous quiz results (whew, I got a high grade! :D), and I got my midterm grade -- w00t, I passed, despite of failing to submit 2 major requirements. XD~ Yay, I'm a hired gun!... While at school, I was texting with Jun -- he invited me to play with his co-officemates' band, urgent for Saturday -- and I learned na para sa wedding party ng boss nila (!) 'yung tutugtugan namin. At the same time, I texted Rainey regarding how we could possibly meet for that day -- she'd be stayin'school 'til 6pm... So I decided to join the band's practice at Gig Studio (sabi ni Jun magpa-practice daw sila 3pm-8pm); tapos pinapunta ko na lang si Rainey (nakahabol naman sa practice namin), then hatid ko na lang siya pauwi. :D (Okay, gotta admit: pumayag ako, dahil madadali naman ang line-ups -- kaya naman -- and shempre, free food and beer! LOLZ...) After class, I rushed my way to Gig Studio; Past 4pm na sila Jun nakarating -- along co-officemates Patrick (guitarist), Carlo (vocalist), and Then kain kami sandali sa ibaba -- yeey nilibre ako ni Rainey! Minor matters. On the way, we had some serious talk (lagi naman e~ XD), then decided na lakarin hanggang sa gate malapit sa dorm niya. (Felt better na nung pauwi afterwards. :) Sowi ulit, nee.) Then lakad uli ako pabalik pasakay ng Muñoz; naka-idlip during biyahe... Grabe, antrapik pala sa Quirino Highway, ginagawa 'yung kalsada! -___-;;; Pero nakaabot naman sa last trip jeep ng Shelter, and nakauwi before midnight. Ang malas pa, walang kuryente sa amin pagkauwi ko (I was about to post an entry!) hanggang kinabukasan, dahil naputul daw 'yung linya namin due to that friggin' tree sa tapat namin (hinangin nung bumagyo). Nakatulog naman kahit walang bentilador, dahil groggy na talaga ako. X___x
Yesterday: Shopping with Mom, Wedding Jam Aftermaths... Trip to SM Fairview. Woke up tanghali -- yay may kuryente na ulit! So shempre marami pa akong ginagawa nun -- nagpapalit ng strings ni Cliff, then crammed more songs na pinapa-sipra sa akin... Nag-lunch kami bago umalis past 1pm. Then sa SM Fairview, sinamahan ako ni mom sa ATM (for financial matters), then shoppingna kami. Binilhan ako ng bagong shirt and leather shoes for school (shushu wawa kasi ako, may butas na at gutay-gutay ang ginagamit ko -- no wonder basa lagi pa ako 'pag umuulan.) Then umalis na rin ako agad, kasi on the way na sa venue 'yung mga bandmates ni Jun. The Wedding Party Crashers! (Heheh) Met them sa may Robinson's, sa may bus terminal -- hatid pala sila ng isang boss nila -- si Sir Rob... Then tinulungan ko na rin sila on the way, dahil memoryado ko ang daan. Initially, nasabi sa akin na sa Fairview ang venue; then I learned na sa Brixton Village lang pala! (Malapit lang sa Shelter. XD) Pagpunta namin, we immediately set up, then na-practice 'yung mga nabuo naming songs. Then around 6pm, we decided na mag-stay muna sandali sa place namin, to brainstorm more songs na pwedeng idagdag sa lineup... Nung naghihintay na kami (at nakahanap) ng trike, nagkataon namang pauwi ng Shelter sina mom, galing SM Fairwiew (para iuwi 'yung mga pinamili)... So ayun, we were able to hitch a ride papunta sa amin. (Swerte, heheh!) Pagdating sa bahay, we did some minor Kodakan blues (matatakaw sa pics sina Pagbalik doon, marami-rami na ring tao, then agad kong inatake ang buffet table (nyeheheh!) and indulged sa maraming pagkain. XD XD XD Afterwards pagka-dating ng isa pa nilang boss ('yung naghatid sa kanila), we then played our set. W00t, in just two days, heto ang mga nabuo (at natugtog) naming songs:
Feeling namin, bitin 'yung tugtog... After some minor pictorials, inuman sessions and pagtrip-an ang isang praying mantis (wala lang, hehe), umuwi na rin kami -- lakad ako pauwing Shelter, while sabay sila kay Sir Rob and his wife sa kotse. Nakauwi naman ng bahay around 1am. Groggy ulit. X___x
[EDIT] A few pix... (rettrieved from my cellphone) Kaunting pics na nakuha ko nung party. Sayang 'di ko napicture-an yung....
8/9/07 03:27 pm - Monday Blues + Beerday Parteh + Monthsary Blues + More...W00t, gone lazy again to post for everyday entry... Now, where do I start...
Monday School Blues Arrived at school on time for my ELEMSUR class -- only had an ordinary discussion... Then I visited my Ate's place -- ate merienda, then visited the computer shop nearby, again surfed the net for a bit. Then Off I went to Gig Studio for Do'ahou practice by 7pm. Only Adrian was absent, due to the heavy rainfall (floods to be exact); yet we were able to practice our lineup. Rainey later arrived to watch us. :) After practice, I accompanied Rainey on the way to Pasig; arrived at her home by 9pm.
Happy Tuesday! Rushed to school, brought lotsa things along (especially clothes)... Arrived for my EADMATH class about 20 minues late... Just had normal lecture there; same goes with my EFLUMEC class; and our professor announced another quiz for next meeting. X___x (Wishin' for class suspension tomorow!) And had a very active participation in our EBAMENG class; beforehand, I crammed for my Problem Set papers for the subject -- as usual, "brainstorming" answers with someclassmates, heheh... After class, I went to Ate's place to eat late lunch (yeah, haven't eaten anything at U-belt); then rushed onto Gig Studio for band practice; earlier, I bought some stuffs at Muñoz... (Really wanted to buy a small cake, but no moolah... T___T) Arrived 30 minutes late; that time, my feet were severely wet , so I decided to reach for my slippers that I brought. Then later on, Rainey arrived, together with her friend Xeng. After practice, me, Rainey and Sheng immediately left and travelled; yet the rains still poured like hell, and we were soaked wet as expected. Arrived at España/Miguelin past 10pm, and we met Zel there (together with her friend Aki); then we four headed to James' place. Inside, there were more guests as well -- UST schoolmates; then we ate dinner with a couple of them. Then we became close enough with a girl -- her name's Blessie (she reminds me of Then came bedtime -- we were all admitted to sleep upstairs; all the UST choolmates were in a room, while me, Rainey and Zel in another room~ (which we discovered it was their late lolo's room.) For a while, we four (with James) spent time playin' cards and story-telling; then we decided to sleep............ The day turned great, 'coz and Rainey were together for that day -- our first monthsary.
Wednesday: Fucked Up Weather Woke up early (around 6am); but instead of immediatly got ready for school, Rainey and Zel decided to play PS2 (Dance Revo, complete with dance pads!) -- yeah, a good way to start a stormy day! (I also eventually had the chance to play, heheh~) Then we ate our breakfast... Speaking of stormy -- we tuned in the radio for updates; that time (around 8am) we learned that still there were classes! O___o; But the problem: both ends of the street are submerged. Flood level: near the knees. Rainey decided not to attend classes (me as well, because I have no chance to catch up for my ELEMFLD class)... But Zel insisted on goin' to AMACU; so I helped her cross the way past the floods -- carried her Koreanovela-style towards España. And she was able to ride a jeep towards Proj. 8/Road 20. Back at the place, the people are enjoyin' themselves on playin' cards -- I evetually joined them; and was able to had a mark on my forehead (Punishment in the game). At the last game, Rainey was beaten, and I was able to vandalize her left cheek~ (mwahaha!) Later on, me and James tag-teamed, and vandalized her face even more, for fun's sake, nyehehe! Afterwards, James had that thought-sharing portion with his schoolmates -- read the cards and opened a gift given to him. (I was able to give my card to him early morning.) The schoolmates left together after the rains have settled (around 10am). Then we played more Dace Revo; and later on me, Rainey and James readied, left together by 12 noon, then me and Rainey journeyed towards Mayon/Del Monte area. There I left her in a computer shop (to spend time a bit), while I visited my Mom (at Ate's place), for some family matters. She insisted that classes were suspended. Returned back to Mayon, then me and Rainey journeyed towards my home (gaah, we were really soaked!), and we spent time here 'til late evening. Around 10pm when we left, then we journeyed towards Pasig; earlier, we visited that Tri Mo Shawarma Co for a couple of death metal shawarmas. Mmmmm, cholesterol rush inside a rocking bus! XD~ Arrived at her home past 12 midnight (!!!), but really felt weird, 'coz she was able to contact home, but her mom wasn't mad at all...! And journeyed back home -- arrived past 1am.
LJ Suspension Quiz Snagged from
Err, that's because I'm just too lazy for everyday entries.
Bling Bling Box! I can't deny that sometimes I do GAS for rare but cool (as much as possible, queer) sounding pedals; but I for one won't EVER attempt to splurge for things like this!
It's a Lovelight Overdrive (by Antelope Effects) worth $295. Mind to know why? It's 24K gold-plated. ( For more details about this, DO NOT CLICK THIS ) Hurts a lot on every stomp on this bling-bling.
And a fun video to make my day... Can't remeber how I found this video, but this really made me laugh, yet amazed! Cool inmates from a Cebu detention center -- these guys rock! 7/6/07 10:56 pm - Late Shameless Plug! XD~Pa-shameless plug lang. Nihon Wo Tanoshimou (Japan Week Celebration) Do'ahou will be playin' here on Thursday (August 9, 2007), around 7pm. See ya there!
Also, support other J-music influenced bands that will play on the other playdates! (Pic snatched from 8/5/06 11:38 pm - Random Sh--! XD~»» Nothing productive nung Sabado, except for fixing my Multiply and Windows Live Spaces (mirror blog thingie). Did lots of formatting and such; and uploaded stuffs (music and videos). And oh, bantay-sarado ako sa bahay buong araw, 'coz I was the one in charge to the 3 karpinteros (they already finished their task that afternoon) -- and served them their meal during noon. I felt like I gained more weight, due to constant food intake. [EDIT] Natapos ko na rin; iMeem chaka Myspace naman~! (Paunti-unti lang...) »» Then kanina: left home around 1pm for Rtschrck practice at Gig Studio, by 2pm (yeah, I was late). Supposedly, I should only stay here all day, 'coz my mom initially had plans to visit here, but was uncertain... Calculated that I might arrive back home early, umalis na rin ako. XD~ Practice was productive, even I was late, and After practice, food tip kami sa may lugawan sa kanto ng Nepa-Q-Mart; then sabay-sabay na kami bumiyahe south-bound ni Jun and Luciel. »» I arrived at Pasig (plaza proper) past 5pm, to meet up with Rainey. That time, my mom texted me that Tita Elsa was waiting outside our house -- she left her keys. So I rushed back home as soon as I could; and arrived home past 10pm. But Tita Elsa was already inside. »» Sa mga mahilig mag-sugat sa sarili: <sarcasm> Paalala lang, paki-laslas sa pulso, para TEPOK KAYO AGAD. Tutal nahihirapan na kayo sa buhay, 'di ba? Tulungan ko pa kayo. </sarcasm> Live your life to the fullest, you idiots. »» On my way home awhile ago, I was humming another guitar riff -- another potential compo material... Argh, I almost forgot: I hafta list my music-related tasks:
Andami pala... »» Yosh, malapit na ang syete~! »» Meme time naman! (after a looooong time...) Tagged by List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to. I tag: 8/4/07 12:34 pm - Mother Knows Best.(Continuation 'to, actually...) Pagkauwi dito, agad din kaming nag-lunch together, dahil mahaba ang biyahe namin pauwi (at maraming dinaanan on the way). Then afterwards, agad na rin akong naligo (gaah, more than 24 hours akong walang ligo! X__x); then later on, my mom suddenly decided na i-hot oil ang buhok ko. O___o After doin' the hot oil, my mon then wanted to massage my body; Around 7pm ako nagising, then naabutan ko 'yung mom ko nagluluto ng maraming ulam~ Then mom (and her companions) decided to spend the night here, then maaga silang umalis kaninang morning. Nag-iwan din siya ng money for me (at last....!) -- my allowance hanggang Miyerkules. Overall, all-day nagpahinga at nag-relax lang ako. Maybe spendin' time with my mom si not bad at all. I do remember (and miss) my childhood days.
Pa-greet lang Happy Birthday!!! po kay James (today! 8/3/07 11:32 pm - Long Time No Post! As in!Nyaaaahhh, it's been
Monday: After-School Happenings. Habang nagpapalipas ng oras sa U-Belt, umulan pala ng malakas; During the trip, biglang nasiraan 'yung bus malapit banda sa Ortigas... That time, naging emotional kaming dalawa -- it was my fault actually; and hurted her feelings...* Sobrang pagsisisi ang nasa utak ko noon; bumigat ang pakiramdam ko, maski pagbaba, at pasakay papuntang Pasig. But later on, naging okay na rin kami, pagkahatid ko sa kanya pauwi. Nakauwi ng bahay around 1am na. (* Details below.)
Tuesday. On time akong dumating sa schoolfor my EADMATH class -- just a normal lecture meeting; and we received the results from our last quiz. Shuwet, bagsak pala ako. T___T Then after class, agad akong nag-lunch (kumain ng baon sa may bandang Nicanor Hall -- doon tumambay) dahil sa sobrang gutom -- di ko matiis! bahala na kung ma-late sa EFLUMEC class ko ng 20 minutes... Pero nung papunta ako, na-meet ko 'yung mga kaklase ko sa labas -- and discovered na wala pala 'yung prof namin. Wenk! Then bumalik for my EBAMENG class -- another normal discussion day... Except nung kalagitnaan nglesson, may Anyways, after class, agad akong dumerecho ng McDo Road 20 -- arrived early (shucks, para bumawi heheh)... Dumating sina Rainey and Zel past 5pm, paipas-oras kami sandali doon; then bumiyahe pa-Crossing. Pagdating doon (around 7pm yata), naunang umuwi si Zel, while tumambay/nag-libot kami around Star Mall. Then nungpasakay kami ng FX, 'di na naman napigilang maging emosyonal (this time, ako ang nag-break down bigla...**) Anyways, naging okay naman kami afterwards. Hinatid ko siya agad pauwi, dahil super antok/puyat na siya nun... And bumiyahe na rin ako pauwi; got home past 12 midnight again. (** Details below.)
Wednesday: Unlucky Day. Maagang gumising (as in!), and 6am (sakto) akong umalis ng bahay; tantiya ko talaga, maaga akong makakarating ng school... Pero minalas -- nakarating sa FX terminal sa Vicas ng 6:30am; pero soooobrang mahaba ang pila, plus late dumating ang mga lecheng FX, at past 7pm na ako nakasakay ng FX! Dapat sana'y 8pm ako makakarating; pero hinde! Late ako ng 15 minutes. Pagdating sa classroom, wala 'yung mga kaklase ko, pati si Sir... Pagbaba ko, nagfi-field work na pala sila! @___@ Then I discovered na maaga silang bumaba, dahil sandali lang nag-discuss si Sir. So ayun,'di ko nakuha 'yung manual ko. At marami rin pala kaming late that morning... Anyways, sumama na lang ako agad sa mga ka-grupo ko, done my field work, and maagang natapos. Pagbalik sa classroom, nabawi ko naman 'yung manual ko -- dinaan sa pakiusap chorva. XD Around 10pm ako natapos sa mga computations ek-ek, and agad akong nagtungo sa house ng ate ko -- ate lunch, at nakapagpahinga (natulog for 2 hours). Then had an ordinary EFLUMLA laboratory session -- gawa experiment, compute chorva, gawa report, and maagang natapos. During class, ka-text ko si Rainey; we decided to meet up after school... So afterwards, agad akong bumiyahe patungong Crossing; medyo minalas (ulit), at nakarating sa Star Mall past 6pm. Then kumain kami ng dinner sa foodcourt~ (sa sobrang gutom. X___x) Afterwards, we decided na magtungo ng SM Megamall, para magpalipas-oras (dahil maaga pa)... Habang naglalakad, she received a text message, and to make it short, naging emotional ulit kaming dalawa -- napaupo kami sandali.*** Then sumakay na kami sa FX pa-Pasig; again, naging emotional kami for a short while.*** (*** Details below.)
Thursday: Expecting the Worst. Maagang gumising at umalis (saktong 7am), pero pagdating sa Vicas terminal, hayun at mahaba na naman ang pila sa FX! So I decided na pumunta sa SM MRT FX terminal, and luckily bumiyahe agad ang FX pagkasakay ko... Then nakarating ng SM North EDSA -- I was thinking that time na sooobrang late na naman ako; pero nagulat nang makita ko ang oras -- 8:15am pa lang. So nakasakay pa ako ng Quiapo jeep, at nakarating ng school 15 minutes early. Himala, ang suwerte ko! Normal discussion lang sa ELEMSUR subject; and next meeting pa daw namin makukuha ang results from last meeting's quiz. Afterwards, kinain ko na agad ang lunch ko, tumambay malapit sa Nicanor Hall. Then balik agad. Then nag-long quiz kami sa ELECENG -- surprised quiz siya, pero open-notes naman. Fifteen minutes before ESTREMA class, nag-review ako. Then bumiyahe papuntang McDo Quezon Ave./EDSA, dahil doon ko naman imi-meet si Rainey, para samahan papuntang Mall of Asia. Then she told me na 4pm pa kami magmi-meet -- explain na lang daw niya later... Nakarating doon ng 3:30pm, at magdamag naghintay lang sa loob. Past 4:30pm na siya nang dumating -- kasama ang pinsan niyang si James. (Hinintay pa niya sa AMACU 'yung pinsan niya, kaya pala.) Then bumiyahe kaming tatlo pa-Mall of Asia, sinamahan sila sa Banco de Oro (again, just like last week), pero agad din kaming umalis ni Rainey. Then dumaan sandali sa Mall of Asia. All throughout the trip (so far), I was feelin' really bad, dahil nahihilo/sinisipon (?), or maybe dahil na rin sa emotion sickness~ (Nyek.) So from there hanggang sa bus papuntang Shaw, pagbaba sa Crossing, pagpunta ng Shangri-La, we went emotinal again -- but this time, we argued na.**** Later on, naging okay na kami ulit (at last), and dumaan kami ng Quantum... Doon namin na-meet ang Kuya niya (si Kuya Reynan), and si Tintin. Afterwards, naglakad na kami papuntang EDSA Central, at doon sumakay ng Pasig jeep , and hinatid ko na siya pauwi. I was glad we were okay na nung nag-goodbye kami sa isa't isa. :) Then biyahe blues ulit (again, minalas bandang Crossing, like the day before), and decided na magtungo sa place ng Ate ko (supposedly, for financial matters). Almost 12 midnight na ako nang dumating; so ayun, my Mom decided na huwag umuwi ng Shelter, at doon na lang matulog. -___-! After eating at magpahinga kaunti, nakatulog na ako (at last), and around 7am ako nagising, para bumiyahe together with Mom pauwi ng Shelter. Mga tanghali (12 noon) na kami nakauwi dito. (To be continued. (**** Details below.)
Random Thoughts (and Details) Yet another silly pic na nakuha ko: taken this sa isang bahay sa may Pasig, nung pauwi ako pagkahatid ko kay Rainey.

General Assembly daw -- made possible dahil kay Alvin; syempre, Music Synergy member ako. :p~ Haay, I hafta practice!............. 7/30/07 05:17 pm - Happenings, 3 Days Ago.MyDestiny Gig Aftermaths Saturday. Felt relaxed at home that morning; As I arrived at the scene, my bandmates were settin' up their gear, and I had no time to fix myself, nor take a brief rest~ (yeah, I was exhausted and very sweaty.) After a few minutes, we played our set... Our overall performance was very great -- "minimal miscues", according to After our set, I immediately took rest on the floor; By 7pm, we decided to watch a movie, and we went to the cinema for The Simpsons. Arrived at home by 12 midnight -- luckily catched up for Shelterville terminal's last trip for that night. Groggy and tired, yet very happy. :) Side-note: Thanks again to MyDestiny (and its sponsors) for letting us play in their event; to Ajzone for the bass playing for us; to our close circle of friends in that gig as well; to John (Kaoru Takamiya) for the hair tie (forgot to return that); to unexpected folks that were able to watch us (Daniel of G.U., Tyrone and the gang, Aminel...); and to Rainey~ (for the inspiration... Yihii! XD)
Practice Blues Sunday. Woke up early morning, went a bit busy -- fixed some stuffs, did some minor solderings... Past 12 noon when we together left home -- she returned to Phase 3 to check her sewn stuffs; while I traveled towards EDSA Kamuning, to meet up with my Rtschrck bandmates. I met Tan on the way to Jollibee Kamuning, and we were already complete as we arrived... Then off we went to the band studio near And afterwards, Rainey texted me to meet her up at Vito Cruz -- that time, she was with her ex-boyfriend's band rehearsal. I first went to Recto to buy my Elementary Surveying book; then checked out Raon (but all electronics shops were closed); and before 6pm when I arrived at LRT Vito Cruz station. There I was fetched by Rainey, accompanied by the band's upcoming vocalist, Christopher. (He was a long-time online friend of Rainey, through Gunbound.) Then as I arrived, I jammed with the band -- composed of Alec, Michael (redkyle/Karu) and Jon (the bassist wasn't around). We were able to jam a couple of songs fully; and goofed the rest of the time. After practice, we spent time outside the studio, chattin' some stories and chismax. XD~ We decided to fill our hungry tummies at the nearby McDo; Around 11pm when we arrived at Pasig, and I wasn't able to accompany her walk towards her home. I immediately rushed towards home -- arrived by 1am, and did my homeworks before going to short sleep. =___=! Whatta stressed day...
Back to Normal: School Blues Today. Woke up short of an hour before my usual departure time towards school; worse, I had to talk with my mom, discussed some matters... Went off home 30 minues late, but luckily I was able to arrive on time for my ELEMSUR quiz. My prof says my assignment was a poor performance; but luckily, I found the quiz problems easy, and finished quickly. Then I rushed towards Raon to buy some electronics stuffs (capacitors) -- at the same time, I was texted by Aminel, that she will be goin' to Recto this time... After buying stuffs, I accidentally met her, but I was in a hurry in return to school. Intentionally went late for my ELECENG class, to finish the rushed-in project -- only to find out that my groupmates did the project since Friday! (Gaaaaah, what a waste of effort, money and time! X___X Idiot...) Finished our seatwork early, and was able to eat my baon, before ESTREMA class. Just a normal lecture session during my last class; And here I go again, spendin' my time here surfing then net, before going to Road 20 later, to meet up with Rainey. :)

) Because of that, I used up a lot of phone credits. Yikes.
Damn, my hands are now stiffer than usual...
Couldn't stand stayin' all day dito sa bahay (bored to death); plus nasira pa yung charger ko, kaya maaga akong na-low batt. So I decided na lumabas, and meet with 
Heavy traffic sa Susano Road, dahil sa pagbubungkal ng kalye. Grabe rin ang heavy traffic sa Quirino Highway -- tinakbo ko pa mula sa may PLDT office/Pascual Liner terminal hanggang R.P. Seaoil Gas Station, dahil halos hindi na gumagalaw ang mga sasakyan. Maski sa Road 20, binubungkal din yung gilid ng kalye. Grrr...
Also accepting trades, especially any of the ff:
)
Procrastinated the whole day -- only surfed the net, read stuffs, and slept. I wanted to do something productive, but didn't had the 'drive' and 'inspiration'. Heck, I even had a hard time writing for my last entry.![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
I wanna go to school...
There are lotsa friends around for you; just be optimistic as always. ^___^v
Therapy to stay away from that work of the devil known as GAS. But hey, this beats other silly delay pedals around -- and after several months, another new POSS® pedal unveils...
Just had seatwork (a tough one), announced our next quiz for next meeting. Then at EFLUMEC -- just a normal lecture day; also got my results from the previous quiz -- a total flop! T___T And at EBAMENG, just had a quiz (a bit easy, but wasn't able to answer an item); and yet another problem set due next week. During the time, 
So around 9pm when me and Rainey got in touch again, told her about those things, discussed matters. We ended up with a toxic mind; and she took a nap early (due to her exhaustion, and thoughts). While I didn't get enough sleep at all -- spent my time surfing (amusing myself) overnight.
(By that time, I should've left already.) Rushed towards school, yet I was caught in the rain on the way; still, I made it to my ELEMFLD class.
My nieces were as energetic as always, but didn't played with them, because I was sleepy that time; so I slept for about an hour. Then when I woke up, the two then were the ones sleepin'... Left there around 4:30pm, and headed to Road 20 (Proj. 8).
On my way home, my girlfriend's ex keeps on buggin' me with his annoying text messages. Didn't gave a damn, of course.
Lower down that MP3 player. Level that amplifier during rehearsals. Do yourself a favor and buy a pair of earplugs.
Medyo petiks mode lang ako dito sa house, then umalis ng house past 4pm~ (crammed a bit sa lyrics, heheh!) Nakarating naman ng SM Mall of Asia ng 7pm; agad kong tinungo ang Entertainment Hall, then I met 
Then uwian na -- sinamahan ko si Rainey, hinatid hanggang Road 20 pauwi sa kanyang dorm. Ginabi ako ng uwi -- napadpad ng Bagong Silang Kaliwa, and lakad pauwi ng bahay, around 1am.
on the way, 'di ko napigilang mag-food trip dahil sa gutom, and pagdating doon, a whopping 6 pesos na lang ang natira sa bulsa ko. And akala ko nandoon na sina Jun -- wala pa pala! O___o (Of course, medyo kinabahan ako, dahil papaano kung 'di sila dumating? Paktay ako pauwi! Pero na-text ko naman si Rainey, so whew...)
And yay, Patrick lent me a hundred bucks, pamasahe pauwi. (Thanks bro!) And ayun, sinamahan ko na rin si Rainey pauwi da dorm niya papuntang Road 20...
Nakapag-charge na rin ng cellphone. :D Then around 11am dumating bigla ang mom ko, kasama ang kambal na pamangkins ko, and their yaya; earlier, mom texted me na pupunta pala kami ng SM Fairview to buy stuffs. Nyay! XD~
Tapos hanggang ngayon walang pangalan 'yung band -- one bandmate suggested na tawagin kaming Rob
Then I spent time surfin' the net; that time, heavy rains poured, and gotstucked inside the shop... As a result, I wasn't able to attend my ELECENG class. X___x Then at ESTREMA, we received the results from our quiz last meeting; as usual, I failed again (and hafta do that tedious assignment)! T___T Then after class, I was able to meet one of my soon-to-be-bandmates for Saturday's general assembly -- I was introduced to her by 
Love you, dear! :x
Whew, whatta day! Lotsa happenings, yet very memorable. :)
On the other hand, it's easy to pawn in times of financial crisis, like severe drug addiction... (Heheh)
Jacko should be thanked for Thriller. XD XD XD~
Spider Pig~~
)
so ayun, I was given a massage (actually, parang "hilot", kasi may langis silang ginamit.), together with her sinamang companion sa trip (si Marie). Very relaxing, and later nakatulog ako buong maghapon; while bumiyahe naman ng Mountain View (sa bahay namin doon) sina mom.
(for dinner, and today, dahil maiiwan akong mag-isa sa bahay.) We had dinner together -- sobrang dami niyang hinanda... Tapos may hinanda din siyang dessert -- buko na naiuwi niya galing Mountain View (bagong pitas sa bakuran namin doon). Ngayun lang yata kami nagkaroon ng ganun ka-daming pagkain sa hapag-kainan. O___o
) -- kita-kits sa Tuesday ha! \m/
Still, can't stop blaming myself that time.
Then maaga akong pumasok, para maka-puwesto ako sa bandang likuran... Pero dito nag-iuba ang "ihip ng hangin" ng araw ko -- nagsimula na akong malasin... Bigla akong na-mental block, at 'di ko nasagutan ng mabuti ang quiz (yeah, nag-aral ako ng mabuti for that, tapos ganun lang...!). T___T Badtrip talaga.
We enjoyed the show, so much. And we were able to meet 
then decided to go home -- me, Rainey and Alec went together through LRT and MRT; then me and Rainey went off at Shaw station. On the way to Pasig Palengke (and inside the jeep), my head suddenly ached -- for some reason... To make the story short, me and Rainey stopped over beside 7-11, went emotional throughout, talked some stuffs, etc.
