sleepless in cavite
This is an offset. A quality given to me to compensate for what appears to be I am not. For what other people don't know. And for what I think I cannot always be. For what I cannot say. Except in my imagination. Where passions are boundless.
On nursery rhyme...
Kung ikaw ay lalaki at napadaan ka sa blog na 'to at alam mong ikaw ang tinutukoy ng mga ilan sa mga nakasulat dito, anong magiging reaksyon mo?
I am still very grateful to Ighie for inviting me to this climb. I think I will always be. Yun nga lang hindi nya pa rin alam ang dahilan. A clue would be my shoutout in friendster. Super thanks talaga sa Green Mountain Tribe sa pagsama at pagpapasensya sa akin dahil ang bagal ko.
If I could write my thoughts in emails or cards to give you confidence and strength to carry on each day and if I could just send what's inside my heart into a package to comfort you through the cold night, I definitely would. It is just that I do not know if it would be of help because I do not know if it would mean something to you as it is special to me. Sometimes in great desperation I hope I am one of the people you've been with, the same people who made you wanna stay here. Sometimes I wonder of the things that currently make you busy. Sometimes I really want to know if you are okay.
Ten thirty pa natapos ang exam ko kanina pero habang sinusulat ko to nakauniform pa rin ako. Sobrang maliwanag ang araw sa side ng upuan ko kanina sa bus pero wala akong naramdamang init (Note: Around 1pm ako nagbabyahe kanina). Pakiramdam ko limang oras akong iniwan ng utak ko simula kaninang alas onse. Kahit na ganon wala akong pakialam dahil masaya ako sa naging sanhi noon. Isa pa, hindi ko naman sya masyadong kailangan noong mga sandaling yon.
Opinyon lang to ng sumulat...
2. Queso, Queso (self-produced).
3. Sound, Blue Monsoon (self-produced). --> dalawa sa mga dahilan kung bakit ako di naniniwala: under EMI ang album na to at kakarelease lang nung second week ng dec 2006. at natalo nya ang typecast at juan pablo? pero ok to! hooohooo!
4. Sugarfree, Tala-Arawan (EMI).
5. Dong Abay, Flipino (self-produced).
6. Chillitees, Extra Rice (soundminds/EMI).
7. The Dawn, Tulad Ng Dati (Warner)/Rivermaya, Isang Ugat, Isang Dugo (Viva).
8. Sleepyheads, (Don’t Let Our) Tuneless Moaning (Go to Waste).
****special mention****Narda, Discotillion ( Edouards Village). Anyone who knows this writer personally might laugh and throw garbage at me when they read this and accuse me of conflict of interest, but heck, find me any sensible listener who will tell you that this is an awful one. From an objective point of view this is where I would have put it because this album brings the different elements that make two important rock genres of the 80’s – new wave and punk – fun, fun, fun.
