The Carollers' Grinch

I really dont want to be taken as a snob or anything much worse, but i started to hate those annoying carollers. I really think there should be a minimum number of members and not go as solo artists then fall in line and play the same song over and over. if they have to pay royalties for the Noche Buena Song (Kaysigla ng gabi ang lahat ay kaysaya...), the composer will be richer than Bill Gates.

But come on, Philippines? Royalties? Im just making an exaggerated point.

There used to be those cute charming kids (ehem ehem ehem. i hope you got the point mga kab-batch kong carollers), who had dynamics when singing, their tambourines on beat and when they start to sing, the serenity of the holiday nights calms down your everything. you get to listen, ponder, feel sad if youre manic depressive and pay as low as 1 peso to 5 for each group.

But if you live in an area where kids do not seriously have an idea what theyre doing, all dressed in black with their emo hairs, not wearing slippers, and after giving them three pesos (kahit duo lang sila na sobrang out of tune), you will get embarassed by hearing Thank you, thank you, amBABARAT ninyo thank you, and they start to run, cussing. Its like trick or treating 9 days before christmas. O_o The fact that theyre just shouting like kids with ADHD throwing christmas tantrums or whatever you call it, THEY STILL WANNA GET PAID!

3 days ago, ive gathered all my 25cents and pisos, thinking... may use din pala to pagkatapos ng isang buong taon. and i thought aabot sha ng 24. pero my god, i dont know if they have this station or headquarters where they all meet up and tell everyone, "puntahan nyo to, hindi to nanghihingi ng tawad" (that.. didnt actually sound right.) so for just one night, i guess i ran out of coins. and the others... are not even thankful or happy. what the hell is happening!

even in simbang gabi, hindi nabubuo ang isang misa ng walang riot sa dulo. again, teens dressed in black, with their sticky hairs, short short shorts, and they actually come in PACKS. hence, i dont even go to church anymore. because... i still wanna live until christmas. or after even.

/me chanting im a christmas person, im a christmas person.

EMI Christmas Party

The traffic is unbelievable. I really havent noticed if all the christmasses had this kind of traffic. Or maybe half of manila's population had a car last year or started doing bus lines or jeeps.

I walked from galleria to Discovery Suites, then went straight to the 22nd floor. The girls are AWESOMELY HOT! :))

Sandwich started the evening, then Sugarfree, Hale then Hilera. You know, every time i watch Hilera, i get to love them more every single gig. They played The Police's De do do do and Message In a Bottle. Tangina sobrang galeng. ewan ba. ang galeng. Hale played two new songs to be released next year pero shempre di ko na ilalagay kung ano yun hahaha.

The food. Shet the food. I dont even want to start with it because until now, everytime i try to breathe, like its coming out of my mouth piece by piece. ANG DAMI KONG NAKAIN.

Thanks sa gift Champ. i love it. :D

To Mamu, Anna, Leeza, Jolly, Ayen, Chris, Bobby, Ivan, Champ, Bianca, Oms, Nikki, Veej, Shel, Lesley, Ate Chu, Angel and Roll na pinagod lang ng traffic for 2 1/2 hours... the night oozed AWESOMENESS because of you. Group Hug!!!! sobrang saya. Dapat nga magEK tayo lahat! n_n woot.

trivia: woot is merriam webster's word of the year for 2007. WOOT! :D

Steve Aoki.

Im not really a big fan of clubbing. although during the rave phase, i was kinda... a sheep. LOL. no seriously, i somehow love club music. but seeing me inside a club, i doubt it.

Ive only gone to Embassy thrice. Two birthday celebrations, and that MTV event. I was not really into dressing up anymore but just jeans, a shirt and most of the time, with a jacket. Until today.

Abhie and I were planning to go to a Steve Aoki event kasi sobrang dami kong naririnig na ang galing daw. so after our birthday, inisip nga naming umalis ngayon. But last night during our celebration, JP said that we'll be going there anyway. VIP. suh-weet. when he told us na its one of the "after party" celebrations, nagblush yata ako. kaso madilim.

I was hesitant pa to dance coz again, im not really into dancing. i look like a bouncing marshmallow to begin with. pero when aoki started to get on with his macbook, ay putsa. nalimutan ko yata ang mundo. umaapaw sa awesomeness, man. umaapaw.

with abhie, pao, ivan and JP there. plus seeing erika, janna and the gang... oh man. helena, janthina and her friends were there too, (jan, in case youre reading this, thank you for still remembering my birthday. god i heart you). it was really an afterparty. with hundreds of strangers in it. too bad i cant leave my place. i really wanted to dance with erika and janna (i miss the hot hot sandwich) but when i tried to go out, ayaw na akong papasukin. and besides, hindi alam ng mga bouncers kung saan yung entrance dun sa kabilang part. inisip ko sanang tumalon pero, baka ma-hassle pa ako. hindi yon rock show, i pondered.

pero ito lang ang masasabi ko... the first day of my second 26th year... i think my following days will be different after meeting Steve Aoki. tangina.

Isang Taus-Pusong Pasasalamat Mula Sa Isang Tumandang Nilalang

Una sa lahat, gusto kong pasalamatan ang mga nakilala ko at higit ko pang nakilala ngayong taon. Some people might think that the randomness of destiny is just a little thing. naniniwala akong we all have a reason why weve met.

The past year was something for me. sabi nga sakin, masasala ko kung sino at ano ang totoo. guess ive had that taste of reality, sabihin man nating hindi maganda yung lasa, pero pakiramdam ko, dun ako gagaling.

Sa mga lahat ng kaibigan kong nagtitiwala, nakikipagtawanan, hindi humuhusga, maraming natututunan sa isat-isa, gusto kong malaman nyo na sa araw araw na ginawa ng diyos, lagi akong nagpapasalamat.

Hindi ko kayo iisa-isahin. kilala nyo sarili nyo at sana alam nyo kung gaano ko kayo kamahal.

sa lahat ng bumati, sa friendster, sa text, sa facebook, at sa kung saan saan pa, salamat. sa susunod samahan nyo na ng regalo. LOL shempre patawa lang yan. baka may magsabi na naman ditong makapal ang mukha ko.

hemmingway, thank you. sobra.. *group hug*

Before That Day

After the NuRock Awards, i became busy with all i should be really busy about. It also came to a point where i couldnt even watch the series ive downloaded from last week. At pag tumatanda na talaga ang tao, darating ka talaga sa point na marerealize mo... ay potek bukas na pala birthday ko. Not to mention that you remembered it because your friends reminded you of it.

I was actually thankful with the year that i had. last year, as far as i can recall, is the worst year of life. this year, i somehow enlightened myself with a lot of things, understood more of the truth, and knowing what really important and whats not. im working on being a perfectly responsible person with self-control. siguro mga 2012 pa yon mangyayari. ive met a lot of new and wonderful friends, became acquainted with the "special ones" and had the right amount of love a person needs.

i havent posted kahit nung NURock awards kasi andami ko talagang ginawa. we also stayed in laguna last friday til sunday morning for the event that i worked on. nakakangarag talaga, andaming hassle pero it was almost nothing because of the people im working with.

until i realized na fuck... hindi ko nga naman naplano ng maayos kung anong gagawin ko sa birthday ko. and of course, gusto ko kasing makasama lahat ng mahal kong kaibigan. kung kaya ng pera at kung kaya ng lugar. e di magsaya.

its also the right day for me to thank all of my friends.. na kung wala sila, hindi ko alam kung san ako pupulutin. hindi ko na iisa isahin dahil sa dami ng mga mahal kong kaibigan, hindi majjustify kahit ng amnesia ang makalimutan ko sila. pero i want you to know, na kahit isang oras ko lang kayo nakasama, nakapagusap tayo at may nalaman tayong mga bagay sa isat-isa, kaibigan na ang turing ko sa inyo. tawagin nyo na akong feeling close, pero para sa akin, friendship begins with a small chat. we tend to disregard little nice things, pero para rin sa akin, its really a big deal.

teka inaantok na ako. mamaya ko to itutuloy hahaha.

1104PM

so i went to the office and JM got me a lucky zippo. its green and it has a clover mark. next thing i knew, i got a free drink at starbucks at sabi ng barista swerte ko raw kasi random. heehee. makatay nga ng lotto bukas.

anyway, starting tomorrow, i hope my next year will be much succesful and happier. and i wish for the world to unite. :D

Too Much Information

Does everybody still know how conversations with friends work? have you ever felt youve given too much information that was sensitive to you and never expected a violent reaction? or a judgment? minsan kasi i dont know how it works now.

i just came home so heavy hearted. i dont know feeling ko pagod lang ako, maraming iniisip, kaya kung anu ano rin ang lumalabas sa bibig ko. alam nyo ba yung feeling na may bagay ka nang dapat palang itago kahit paano kasi hindi sa lahat ng oras, nasa iisang linya kayo. i know everybody has their differences pero sometimes, if youre overfamiliar with anyone, nalilimutan na yung boundaries kung hanggang saan lang pwedeng nakakatawa or sobrang nakakasakit.

yung sobrang personal.

siguro id like to somehow defend myself na hindi ako social climber. ive never pretended that im rich. nagkataon lang sigurong may arte ako sa katawan. pero kahit kelan siguro hindi ko inisip na mayaman ako at hindi ako nakikipagkaibigan sa "mahihirap". nagtataka lang ako kung bakit ako macoconnote as a social climber. dahil ba may kakilala akong celebrity? eh hindi ko naman kaibigan ang iba ron. eh kilala ko e. anong magagawa ko magkakilala kami. should i pretend that im sooooo down to earth na dapat hindi ako nagkkwento about them? akala ko masaya pag may insider tsismis? hindi pala.

at kahit hindi ako graduate, i know that i could stand for myself. kaya kong mabuhay without using anyone. mabuti sana kung namumulot ako ng pera. or nanghihingi. eh hindi e. marunong ako dumiskarte. nagkataong marami akong alam. bakit parang dapat maramdaman kong wala akong pinag-aralan? i dont even think im incompetent. i dont even pretend that im smart. coz i really know what i do. so i dont think pointing it out is as personal and hurting as my jokes.

may tinapakan ba ako sa mga kaibigan ko? or ibang tao? may ginamit ba ako? kasi kung meron... pakisabi kung sino. at least kahit paano kaya kong ipagtanggol ang sarili ko.

its too much drama saying these things personally. ayoko kasing magkasamaan ng loob. pero sana naman, as much as i dont judge anyone, and since i call some of my friends the best, magkaroon naman tayo ng kahit konting pigil sa sarili natin, before opening our mouth that could offend anyone.

masaklap pa nito, eto yung mga taong hindi ko inano.

i dont know if i should feel apologetic about something. i dont even know if i deserve those things. pero sana, always think na if ever my other friends judge you in a way na hindi ko gusto, one thing i surely know, i will defend you as much as i can.

im so sorry if ever ive said anything na katumbas ng mga nasabi nyo sakin. or higit pa. pero as much as what i could recall, i really dont deserve it.

you know why i blogged it? because my heart couldnt contain it. i wanted to cry. and for the last time ive asked myself, sa ganitong klase ng sitwasyon, to whose shoulders im gonna cry upon?

lesson learned, i think i should change the way i am.
