Render me stupid
I'm loving it anyway
Loving the tie dye
psychedelic color
my skin has turned into
Wave after wave
of ink blots
and paint spatters
People start to glance
I know you're loving
Loving the fakery
You -- an artist taking pride
behind an over-used canvas.

Ever noticed how most superheroes usually attach gender indicators to their names? Like Batman or Catwoman. And as for villains, they tend to be more creative and believe that people don't have to know whether you're a man or a woman just to destroy the world.

Therefore, I conclude, that villains are more confident with their sexuality.

Bright Lights

We had an event last night called Bright Lights Festival, an awards night for the best in Multimedia Arts. It was suppose to start around 6:00pm but we still bothered to go around 9:00. Richie insisted to go though I was a bit hesitant because I was guessing the festival would be over by then. I found out later that Bamboo's going to perform afterwards so what the heck. And with free tickets (thanks Moo!) you can never fail.

We were just in time for the show to start. It wasn't that crowded so Richie, Moo and I got to stand on the edge of the stage. The show was a blast! Everyone was waving their arms as if Bamboo was a god. I, however, am one of those few who gave Bamboo little attention. Instead, I worshipped another god - Ira!!! He's the guitarist of the band and might I say also the hottest. He got my groupie senses tingling with excitement. It was very clever of the people who organized the event to have them perform after everything else is done. The only reason why the people held up for three hours was for them to watch Bamboo perform.
But then again I might be wrong.

Anyway, bad quality pics and several bad quality videos taken on the said event have been uploaded.

Single Saturday

I forgot how it was to be single again 'til today. Richie had to go to Laguna and spend the whole weekend as a requirement for his fencing team. Richie and I hang out 24/7 because we both come from the same school and take up the same course and he lives just right across the street. So today was a good chance for me to see how it's gonna be when/if things don't work out for us anymore. No matter how much you love the person, you should always keep yourself prepared for the worst. But you know what I realized? It can be really boring being single, no matter how busy you can be for some reason. Sure it has its quirks. But it's just lonely.

My day started with being 30 minutes late for my 9am to 12nn class. I didn't go home anymore and just had lunch at the University Mall with Robbie. We were supposed to attend this art seminar called MADE (Metrobank Art & Design Excellence). It started around 2 and ended until 5 in the afternoon. The talks were pretty boring though important points were still extracted from them. The artwork exhibit was awesome!!! It's very nourishing to soak yourself once more in oil paintings and watercolors and sculptures. I should probably visit the museum one of these days. It's really been awhile.

By the time I got home, I only had thirty minutes to freshen up and met up with my high school friends whom I haven't seen in a long long while. We hung out for a bit at Jenny's penthouse then went to Greenbelt 3 for dinner. It was nice to catch up on each other and just have fun and go crazy like we used to. Four glasses of iced tea and an empty plate later, we went for a stroll and did a bit of window shopping. I went home early because I can't seem to keep my feet firmly on the ground without shaking. I've been out all day and the only decent meal I had was 6 hours ago (I didn't eat at dinner if you still weren't able to pick that up).

So that's it, pretty much. Nothing interesting, really. Just the usual update where you blab about what you did the entire day and you know no one really gives a *fork*. Quite understandable.

Anyway, pics taken at MADE and at Greenbelt shall be in my MULTIPLY page. Enjoy!

Dish

Time for another update. It's the second week of school and I'm just here relaxing before my class starts. It starts at 3:40 and by 4:40 I'll be on my way to a fifteen minute walk to our other building for my 4:50 class and I'll have to walk back to the main building for my 6-9 class. Bummer.

Last Saturday was put to good use.



I didn't stay home instead I went to this place called Dish at Quezon City in the ABS-CBN compound. It was pretty good.




When we got there, it started with a band called Fahrenheit, nothing much to say about them. They're okay I guess. Your typical alternative rock band.

Then came The Bloomfields!!! They stood out from all the bands! I love them!!! They look and sound like they just came out of a 60's vintage record cover. I love how the guitarists carefully choreographed there moves with every beat and how the drummer, who sang the first song, seemed to have so much charisma. They perform there every Tuesday. If only Quezon was close to Taft, I'd probably go see them as if it were Sunday Mass.



They were then followed by Kjwan. Marc Abaya wasn't as hot as I imagined, but still hot enough. Hehe.



Then a product from our very own school, a band called "Eden". They're Music Production students. Though they played covers from old songs like Lisa Loeb's Stay and Natalie Imbruglia's Torn, they sure show a lot of promise. Powerful voice on this one.



Radioactive Sago Project... "Black smoke, black smoke, swimming in my brain. Black smoke, black smoke it's driving me insane..." Or something like that... hehe



The last performance was done by a popcapella group called Out-of-the-Box. Sorry this is the only clear picture I got. The rest are blurry because I had to make do with my camera phone. They're the whole reason why we went there in the first place. Carlo, the guy on the far left, was Richie's friend from high school and he beatboxes for that band as well. The girl in the middle, Cheers, is the only one from CSB. The rest are from Ateneo.

But before the show ended, Richie got to perform on stage with Carlo and Chino! Yay! Check out the video I took in Richie's Multiply page. I was a groupie at her best. Hehe...

I finally came clean with Richie about what happened last Friday. It went well.

By the way! I finally worked on my Multiply page! Check it out! :)

Guilt Trip

This is another one of my whiney entries that always turn out to be my fault anyway and by the end of this entry I'll probably be making a promise I'll forget about in the next 147 hours.

I am such a schmuck. We've finally engaged into a thirty minute deep and serious talk consisting mostly of lectures on my laziness and frequent class ditches and it also involved me agreeing and promising to never skip one single class again.

But 10 minutes after having a late lunch with him before class, I find myself once more going to school and not going to one single class at all. The guilt is killing me. I did go to my first class but I only went as far as the classroom door after realizing I was 30 minutes late. I just told him there was no teacher and I got dismissed early in my second class. So I got myself to read Oral Communication textbooks at the library and refused to go home until 6pm as punishment and also to make up for what I missed in class. I don't know how I'm going to tell him about this. I don't think I will. Ugh. I feel awful.

I seriously need to start keeping my promises. I gotta swear from now on......... no..... starting on Monday (I got class tomorrow Saturday morning), I will never ever ditch class unless I have a valid reason to.

And you guys better not talk me out of it............... because I'll probably be talking myself out of it before any of you do. Hehe. I know myself too well.


Add:
Quite coincidentally, Robbie's entry seems to correlate with mine though my entry has nothing to do with his. Awesome.

My punishment for failing something? An additional 512mb RAM and 40 gigabytes of hard disk! Talk about undeserving! All in all, I now have 748 mb RAM and an 80 gigabyte hard disk! I've never felt so satisfied with my computer in such a long long time.

I just had it a couple of days ago and ever since then I've been experiencing fast gameplay and I've been downloading numerous Will&Grace series and several movies! I've been burning them into blank cd's so if you guys wanna copy what I got so far you may borrow them.
