Busy as a bee

“These days I seem to find a million reasons to sit around and waist my mind”

A very tiring and stressful week indeed! Since I entered my third year in college a lot of things changed. Busy became an ordinary word for me and imagine I am only in my 2nd week. Now I only can post less than 10 here at my blog. If you could see at my archives I can post as many as 30+ posts. Maybe blame it on my 6-9:00pm schedule during Wednesdays then on Thursdays I have 7:30 class. Maybe it is also the reason why I don’t have a dengue. My brother was diagnosed with dengue while my little brother is also at the hospital and results will be released later on. Yes, my two brothers are at the hospital fighting for their disease why they left me and our maid here alone. That is making me stressful! When I arrived at our home, my two dogs are the only one who greeted me.



On Mondays we don’t have a class and this Tuesday is Araw ng Maynila. It is my first time to love Manila’s Day. Because like last year the Manila’s Day is on Monday and I don’t have a class for that day so it is useless. When I am at first year it is on Sunday. Now I can really cherish it. I really need a break! I have eye bags already!!! But a lot of things still I needed to do. Thanks to my professors!

Marc marks the spot

“you can count on me, I’m gonna get it done get it done”

That’s what I am talking about. Musicians should takeover television. I am not really into watching telenovelas until I heard Marc Abaya will be on Ligaw na Bulaklak, I said I want to watch this for Marc’s sake. I really wanted to see him act since I saw his trailer for “Elegy” his independent movie. I really wanted to watch that movie.

Anyways, I saw him just today. At first I thought that Marc will be just an extra or whatever in the show since Roxanne has a leading man already. But I saw this commercial for their show and I saw Marc kissing Roxanne and if I’m not mistaken he also kissed Ara Mina. Astig! I have this state of mind that if you are in a band or rock band or a rock star, they will not do “masa” things like for others acting in for television.

Well Marc Abaya did everything tastefully. I saw some of his parts that will be shown tomorrow (naku, di ko mapapanood si Marc bukas) and he breaks rockstar stereotypes. Marc’s acting capabilities is a true statement that rock stars, musician or band members should replace those f*****g artist who doesn’t know how to act but always on t.v.
I’ll stop ranting and start watching for Marc.

Lagim is back




“Your face lights up the sky on the highway”

Strange but true Rico Blanco is back. When I arrived at home I saw this newspaper and it’s in entertainment section he is like in headline. It is stated there “Yes, it’s Rico Blanco” then I saw this picture. I thought it is an old newspaper from my “archive” so I thought it is an old issue. I got excited so I browsed it and saw that it is a current issue and he is really back. He is out with his new single. I haven’t heard it because I am busy nowadays.

Rico Blanco being a solo performer makes me think very much. What I mean is if he is still with Rivermaya, maybe they are very big Asian artist already. Maybe he is tired of it, or maybe tired of his management and band mates. I never think that he will go back in the music biz or like be a performer because he just left his band without notice and as what I know wala namang masamang nangyari before the break up. I thought he wanted a new career. Well I really like him back. For almost 1 year of hiatus, I missed him so much that I got tired of listening to his old songs, old interviews from magazines and as well as old videos. I did a “panic buying” nga eh. I bought the Rivermaya live and acoustic. It is only 150 nga lang pala pero it is with about 10 songs plus 8 videos. I also bought his last magazines with his former band.

Now I wonder will he ever sing rivermaya songs at gigs? kita kits sa gigs and let’s find out together.

But wait there’s more… I thought this post will be over. But as I write this down and while listening to NU 107 Independence special, I heard “Yugto” his new single.

This is unofficial lyrics of “Yugto” I just tried to write what I heard. Ni record ko lang… eto lang kasi yung pwede kong gawin… I can’t upload the song…
Yung bandang huli kasi hindi ko maintindihan…
Parang may paka orchestra… astig…



Sa gitna ng kagubatan may ahas na hahalik
Tatawagin kang kaibigan na pinka matalik
Pupulupot sa leeg mo sisipsip ng iyong dugo
Ipapako ka sa krus kapag ikaw ay natuyo

Sa gitna ng kaguluhan may kukulong bulkan
Di ma pigil ang yabang at sakdal na kasakiman
Susubukang angkinin ang lahat ng hindi kanya
Kung kaya kang paikutin tiyak paiikutin ka

Ngunit hindi nila kayang baliin ang iyong loob
Ang pag-ibig na hawak mo’y hindi malulubog

Lumiyab ka….

Sa gitna ng kadiliman may buwitre na nagmamasid
May magbabato ng putik ngunit walang mayayanig
Iiyak ang mga batang nahulugan ng candy
Laging mga problema sa iba’y sinisisi

Sa gitna ng kagubatan may ahas na hahalik
Itinuring mong kaibigan na pinka matalik
Feeling mo’y pupugutan dugo mo’y sisipsipin
Kapag wala nang mahanap ang ending mo’y sa bangin
Ngunit hindi nila kayang baliin ang iyong loob
Ang pag-ibig na hawak mo’y hindi malulubog

Lumiyab ka….

Tuwing hating gabi maririnig mo ang huni
Ng mga kaluluwang naliligaw
Lahat ng pera sa mundo hindi kayang gawin ito
Ang huwad na tao..

Saksi ang langit sa lahat ng naganap
Saksi ang langit sa …

Lumiyab ka….

May review for this song to be post later on since I need to do some things…

First day hi

June 10 (Tuesday)
“Nasasabik sa unang araw ng eskwela”

So here I am back to school like other 30 million ++ kids. It’s not my intention to go to school since it is the first day. I am studying for almost all of my life so I know the drill. First day is just meeting the teachers, orientation, rules etc, etc… but I also remember that it is also the catching up stage, the tsismisan, the kamustahan with my classmates… So I just tried to go to school coz I just miss hanging out with my friends and I only have 1 subject for this day. But I think that is also the reason why I can’t get out of my bed because I have only 1 subject for this day, it’s the 1st day and last but not the least the subject has a whapping zero units.

Awhile ago as I entered my beloved school (aysus, aysus) I already heard some of my former blockmates and they waved at me. Then when I am in our classroom reality hits me because it means me or we have new set of classmates. We waited for the professor but it turns out that it’s not our professor and scheduled have changed.

But I am really nervous, anxious, excited for tomorrow. First because I need to accompany my youngest brother to go to school since my mother is not available every Wednesday because she has some church activities. It’s my first time to do things like that. I am the only available because my class will start pa at 10:30. Speaking of 10:30, my subject for that is Statistics. I hate going back to the start. Then my dismissal will be 9:00pm. Ayos!


I bought banda mag nga pala featuring Pupil. I really love the pictures lalo na yung kay Ely at Wendell hahah astig!!

Pain in the hands of my love

June 1 (Sunday)

I think this poem entitled “Pain in the hands of my love” will tell what I feel. I saw this boy named Jepoy at Imbestigador. I am just so speechless

I was man slaughtered yet I’m still alive

The fervor of the gunshots still remains

Your unrelenting animosity

Flowing in my body intensely

I am the spawn from your womb

That you caressed for 9 long months

But I am greatly bemused

You bereft me of your love

That I’m longing to have

The vehemence you’re showing to me

Flows into my nerves

Dislodging you is an option I can make

But I didn’t

Cause you are still part of my fingerprints

That God baked

Mother is such a sweet word for many

Mother is a praise for everybody

But for me it is like a curse

Coz until I reached nirvana and the paradise

You will still be my mother I ought to have
