Alright.. I guess it was a pretty busy week. The clock has been mocking me so badly that I'm getting a headache, but I'm happy. My internet browser's down.. so I'm posting this in an internet cafe. Haaay... I'm.. nonplussed since it was probably the greatest week I've ever had because I met up with her 5 times last week. Five. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.... whoooo!! *lights up a super lolo and blows up a random cute pet animal* Alright!!!!! Kaboom!!!!!

......labo.

Astig yung Mr. Clay ng Bamboo... damn.. ang lupet.

Ok. I know this is quite late to be a valid post but I want to write about it anyway.. I had a great time last Easter Sunday. Sobra! I went to her house and stayed there for about an hour or two. We ate some pizza.. We talked and laughed. Haay... Everytime I see her, my heart sings.... Ok... I gave her a jar of strawberry jam from Baguio (from the nuns), an easter card I crammed for the night before, some eggs na may chocolate pa sa loob.. (basta! kakahiya eh...), and the fat book I used to study for the college entrance tests last summer. Wow. I did something for the first time... I won't tell. Grabe. It was so nice. Sayang nga lang.. nakalimutan ko yung egg suit ko. Pero yung bunny suit di nalabhan eh kaya... di ko na nadala. Hehe.

Hmm.. here's my grad ball pic with Jamie (at last). I'll post someone else's soon. (Yung palaging nasa tag-board ko) Hehe.



Last Tuesday, I went to Ateneo to jog. I started to run from McDonald's then I circled half of the campus and the fields around there. Ang skimpy ng shorts ko eh.. Ahehehe.. "Hu ye?" Haha... But I had fun. Anyway.. I was talking to Ino at the Xavier Hall.. may problema siya nun eh pero ok na. Something to do with .01 :p We were sitting on one of the benches there.. til an orange-pringle-shirted figure sat beside me and blew me away... hehe... so we basically went walking around with her mom and eventually we were on our own. Then.. most of the time we were in Moro.
She was beautiful... I swear.

...Wednesday was a back-breakin' day. Nagpractice ako from 1-5 ng hapon.... aaRGH..

Last Thursday, I was in Ateneo again with her the whole morning. Haay... If only I could freeze those moments when we were together being perfectly happy doing nothing... just sitting around and shocking the guy who was mowing the lawn while at it... Hehe. :)

Last Friday.. I took the day off. I totally relaxed my butt from all the gruelling, mind-diverting bastardization of my schedule.... basta. :p

The Freedom Bar gig last Saturday at was.. ok. I'll give it to you straight.. and more's set sucked. The night would've totally disappointed me.. if it weren't for Jamie.. HAAY... I love you. She went out of her way just to see me play. Grabe... Natouch ako. Haay... Pasira nga lang sila Edwin, Inigo, and Mr. Momoy (hehe.. mister..) for going up the already occupied and isolated stairs and seeing me with her... *screams* ...kinda ruined a moment for us (may mga unnecessary hirit pa).. but that was the latter part of a really nice moment so.. it was ok. Bahala na. "Ok..." ..damn that word. Haha. Kakahiya. Basta.

Hmmm... I wonder why 'and more' sucked that night.... The amps and the drumset, for starters, reeked. Ang pangit ng ano eh... cohesion namin... Malas. plus a sauna was successfully disguised as a stage so I was putting up with the heat whole time I was playing. Argh. Ginusto ko nga magtanggal ng shirt eh.. Pero wag na. hehe! kapal.. The mics produced a horrible feedback, something you'd dread to hear when you're playing... It makes the people look away.. We were simultaneously learning our lesson. The good side? We were supported by friends. So no matter how awful we sounded, they put up with the noise and pat us on the back for the guts. Hmmm... maybe, just maybe.. that was just one person. Nah.. I'll hallucinate for now. I know, I know... It's nice to give reality the finger but at the same time, it really isn't... So, the lesson is adequate preparation is a must... for any matter. Ugh... I sound preachy. But it's true. Rehearsing alone will not bring us to where we want.. It's more of how passionate we're willing to be. :)

Pleasurebox was ok. We played our three compositions: the indie song, "nawawala," prior to "snail." After that, we played Thursday's "Standing on the Edge of Summer and The Smashing Pumpkins' "Drown" again... all in all... that was 5 songs.. :)

That night, I kissed her goodbye and I remember coming home close to midnight that day... before mistaking sleep for food. Drowning in my dreams and how I saw it come true..... :)

Anyway, I surprised Jamie last Sunday. I went to her house after eating lunch in the middle of nowhere and stayed for about 5 minutes.. Bitin pero I couldn't ask for anything better than simply seeing her. It was perfect all the same. :)

Hey you know what.. there's this amusing word I discovered: straggle, which means "to be dispersed/scattered." Haha. It sounds like the barok "struggle" doesn't it? Try using it in a sentence and not seeing any humor in it.......Hahahaha... ang babaw ko talaga.

*Sighs* I'll be going camping this Thursday to Sunday in Rizal along with this youth group.. Yikee. Hehe. It'll be fun. Bad side? I'll miss her.

Hmm.. what else... I'll be taking a break from bands for the next two weeks. I need some rest, some fresh musical inspiration, and some new drumsticks since the guy from Tinkerbell broke one (it was bound to happen anyway so it's ok.. it gives me a valid reason to ask my mom for a new pair). So there. I decided to give Jamie the other drumstick (the one still intact) and I kept the other one. :)

By the way, I'm working for my dad right now. It's inspiring.. really. Haha. It's not as taxing as it seems.

Ahhh... what a week.
