SUGOI 
ang summer, yeah!
From Monday to Wednesday, I was in school to get some papers signed for my OJT; I had to wait till the CSD faculty returned before I could get the signing done with because they had their recognition day and there's no one in the faculty. The Genshi-officers had their meeting and I am not an officer but I still joined their meeting and at the same time hangout with my Genshiken friends. Laughtrip as usual. The "ghost stories", haha.. which aren't realy ghost stories. They did the planning of activities for next semester while I took some pictures. They started teasing about this manga, Othello, with my look-alike. Thursday and Friday, I was at PJ's to jam for Friday night's SUVASA performance. Haha, it was a bit tiring [ouch, puyat!] but I enjoyed it. His place [not sure if it's actually his or just renting it] is really cozy and homey. I get to meet new people though not actually new because I see some of them in school, watch movies [yay, portable dvd player!], take pictures [woohoo, stolen!] and listen to good music.
I'll try to recall everything. Let's start from the very beginning.
March 22nd, Thursday. I arrived at Windward a few minutes past five. PJ and his friend, whose name I forgot, just came from Manila after watching their peers' graduation. I remembered, I was supposed to watch my friends' graduation too but it would've made me feel bad because I should be graduating too but.. Blah-blah! Nevermind. Okay, so we sent inside the house. We waited for Erich while we watched a movie. More people came, Joey, then Erick. Erich was the last to arrive. PJ started setting up while the others watched another movie, one of them fell asleep. While the guys played music and jammed, Fiona came and gone too after a short while. PJ mixed with his laptop using Kinetic, a musical software. The there were switching of instruments, music here, music there.. Haha! Jamming talaga! They took some pictures too because Erick brought his camera. I enjoyed the night of good music except for one thing, all of them were smokers. [Haha.. Second-hand smoke. It's just like hanging out with my other friends who are smokers too. I had colds when I came home. ^__^\/ ] I loved sitting at the floor. The place felt so homey, though the low lights hurt my eyes a little, that it was comfortable indian-sitting on the clean, white floor. We were done by 9pm and I got home very sleepy. Hehe..
March 23rd, Friday. I arrived at 2pm. The guys [Erich, Erick, PJ, Stan, Fiona and two kids] were watching 50 First Dates. After the movie, they turned the lights on and clapped. Haha.. Wala lang. I just found it funny because you'd usually hear applauses after a show at theatres and we were just in the living room. Then we went to the garage, there they played the guitar and the banduria [was that a banduria or an octavina? I'm not really sure.] It actually took some time before they can tune the instruments. Of course, I took some pictures. PJ took a little nap. When he woke up, he started setting up. La-la-la.. Erick slept. Haha. Sleepy person. I tried to make a melody out of the few lines that I wrote. Stan left early. Erick and Erich left together. Only the two of us were left, we watched House of Flying Daggers. Master Wind reminded me of Jumong, haha. In the middle of the movie, PJ went to take a bath. Sir Dok came to borrow the instruments. He got dressed, then we had to wait a little longer for the students [DMS members] who were sleeping over because they have to leave early in the morning, before we could leave. I didn't get to finish the movie, hehe. We rode the scooter. Woohoo! Sarap parang roadtrip. Haha. I loved how the wind slapped my face though it was not so good having my hair all over my face. Haha. The ride was fun except for the bouncing because we passed through a lot of humps on the road we took. By past nine, we were already at Robinson's Dasma. The event hasn't started yet when we came. I saw familiar faces, and this guy that looked a lot like my former classmate. he even spoke and acted like him. Haha. Parang sabog lang eh, hehe.. Peace! Vince was there too. I met new people but I can't really remember their names. The first performer was Elemento. Astig! I thought I heard the cry of an angry bird. Galing talaga. Pinatili ang flute. Malupet! There was poetry reading between performances. We were the third to play, and Erich and PJ set up while the emcee spoke. I wasn't nervous but I was lost. I forgot the melody I was singing earlier and I didn't know what to do. So we went on stage. I sat on the floor because I was too shy to show myself. We began. I almost got deaf. The speaker of the guitar that Erich was behind me and I can't hear anything but the guitar. I noticed someone taking pictures, I think he's Roy Cruz. He must have had a hard time 'cause the speakers were covering me. Wala lang. My hair was all over my face, my left hand on my left cheek while I held the microphone in my right. I did what I thought of doing. I sang.. I chanted... La-la-la.. PJ said, "Kami po ang Nyabinghi.", or I think that was what he said and then we were done. Phew! My legs were almost numb. Hehe.. My fault, I chose to sit on the floor of the stage. I was the first to go down and this lady came up to me, shook my hands, and told me, "Congrats, Ang galing nyo!". I was like, "Ay, thank you po.". Woohoo! Palakpak tenga! Hehehe.. Stan told me we did good. PJ said, "Next time ulit?", Ahoho! Ang saya, yo! I went to Vince and ask how the performance was but.. 
Haay, naku.. Si Vince talaga! He asked if I sang, hindi ata sya nakinig. Nevermind, hehe.. There, I saw Rex with his nice hair. And he got his ears pierced. Astig. Di lang cuteness, mukha nang rockstar. Skip tayo.. I can't remember everything. So yun. Syempre, Lakbay Lahi. I enjoy watching them perform in school but this is different. Concert mode. Sayang lang, the tables were far from the stage. Organic Sound Orchestra. Hands down. La-la-la.. The event was a success and all the performers were good, and that included us. Hehe.. Though, I think, they could have chosen a better emcee. Hehe.. Peace po tayo, ate emcee! '__' \/ Yeah, I forgot. Artworks were displayed there. Some of which, were the ones that was exhibited at the AEA Gallery. I was even present at the opening of that exhibit and that was where we met Richard Tuason [I think he's part Elemento too but I'm not sure if he was there last Friday] and Loret [Sorry, 'di ko alam spelling] of Elemento, the one playing the flute. Going home, kasabay ko si Heidi. No traffic jam since it was already midnight but it was just unfortunate that some rude [err, maniacal if I should say] men rode the jeep where we were. At first they were just noisy till this girl with two guys came. The girl was wearing thick make up and was wearing a tube top. I think she worked at one of the resto-bars in Rob Dasma. Some of them moved one side of the jeep to give way to the girl, where Heidi was sitting. Naipit na nga si Heidi. By the way the group of guys stared at her especially the guy in blue polo shirt, who by the way looked the most MANYAKIS of them all, they have already stripped her of her clothes and raped her. Poor girl. Kulang na lang, tumulo laway nung mga mayakis na yun. They all went down and urinated at the same time then went to a night bar. Grrr.. Nasty, vile creatures. Nevermind na lang. I just feel like killing whenever I see people like them.
All in all, it was one ultimate art experience. Sana maulit. After this, I have to face another part of my reality. The consequence of failing, of not being good at something, and not even enjoying it. I'll be up for another lifetime of sermon. Haay, buhay...
Weeee! May aso na ulit kami! They named him Jumong. Hahaha..
~Sana nga pala makakuha ako ng pictures nung SUVASA Art Happenings 2007. 
Aww.. His smile.. so sweet, even his eyes were smiling. Intoxicating, addictive.. Nakakabitin. Ahaha.. Nahuhumaling ba? Ahoho.. Who am I talking about? 'Wag na noh! Baka sirain nyo lang ang pantasya ko, hehe.. His energy is not as dark as it seemed to me when I saw him before. I'm starting to like him more and more...
