Mom: Where are you going? It’s a Sunday.

Me: I’m gonna go out and buy me an umbrella.

Mom: But it’s raining!

Me: I’m gonna go out and buy me an umbrella.


Rid of Me

I think it’s a brilliant song.

In other news, the guys, Jeric (our temp drummer) and I + Toti are going to Bicol this Thursday for a gig at the Avenue Square in Naga City. It’s been too long, I haven’t been back since god knows how long so we’ll see how that goes. Too bad I have nobody to visit any longer, but I do recall some fond memories from when I was a kid or so I thought.

One was taking Nightgown Barbie to the beach with the entire pool and barbecue set. Of course the beach was vast, that I lost a piece of ham, a pitcher and a couple of fruits from her kitchen. I really liked that orange. You see, even as a child I believed in the impossible. I often fought against the inevitable. What can I say, I even have a bottle of shampoo in my bag because you never know when you feel like taking a dip, right.

Also, I’ve been madly addicted to the game Plants vs. Zombies. So much that if you check the categories in this blog, you will find the newly added section called Fun. I never dared to download anything to potentially make me counter-productive, but thanks to Keith and a group of real grown men who advised me to play it and sent me the damn file. Now I’m too busy to even eat. But I have a beautiful Zen Garden to boot and am currently working my way up in dollar land to get that goddamn Imitator.

Anyway, here’s an actual playthrough of the game that has kept me company this past week. Giving me absolutely no reason to pick fights with innocent people.

I will not spoon-feed you because I want to play the next couple of levels as I pretend to work on a deadline now so go, google it! :D Enjoy!!!


Anything, really.


Orchestral pads are like deceitful little creatures we often refer to as professional cheats and liars.

I know this is so 90’s but damn I really thought this episode was scary. Also, what a freaky song. So uh… enjoy!

  • 10:00 ng umaga: Sa pag salubong ng araw ng pagkalaya natin, sisikapin kong ang buong araw ay magsasalita at mag susulat ako sa tagalog. Sa katunayan, nag desisyon akong mag-tweet sa wikang Filipino.
  • Ngayon ko lang nalaman na maraming katumbas ang salitang “hassle” sa tagalog at ito ay ang mga sumusunod. a. sagabal b. hadlang c. abala at d. hassle – pero mukhang mas angkop na gamitin ang salitang hassle ngunit kailangang ibahin ang pag-spell kaya magiging hassel siya imbis na hassle.
  • 2:43 ng hapon: Sa kabilang dako, ninais ko rin gamitin ang salitang “weird” sa isang salita ngunit hindi ko maisipan ng katumbas. Salamat at nilinaw sa akin ni Clang na ang salitang “kakatwa” (at hindi ang salitang “kakatawa”) ay ang nag-iisang salita na katumbas ng”weird”.

  • They say the world is a big beauty contest & that everyone’s born to compete in it. What if we make it one big math and spelling bee instead?
  • A physically-attractive, self-made woman is interchangeable with being a self-made, physically-attractive woman. But that’s only as far as genetics and IQ are concerned.
  • Saying that beauty is a depreciating asset, isn’t a lie. Daunting experiences consume good people and cynicism can slowly kill one’s character.
  • The ratio of one polygamous man : two women who marry for money.
  • Very few people have a “forgiving” perception of beauty.
  • Beauty is in the eye of those who see.

the rain, playing with our plight

they watch every wrong move

they make their presence felt like an erratic applause,

but in unison it waits on you with a silent pulse

and before you know it

they let you know what a good job you’ve done

what a great fool you’ve become


Thank Yous :)

dosJust yesterday, Carlos linked me to our Multiply Fansite. I had no idea this page was still up, until I browsed the site. So, I’d like to extend my thanks to everybody who have kept it alive after all these years, the UDD Official Fansite as well as the Yahoogroups and Facebook sites. My Friendster and Myspace pages may have been taken for granted, and Facebook deleted, but I have found a new home other than WordPress, and that is Twitter. Just search for me and send me a request, I will definitely accept and even over-tweet for you. Here is a photo I got from Dharmalites.com that I absolutely love.

I admit, I have no social skills and I hardly have a promising real-time presence, but on the internets, I’m your girl. Now, I must get ready for Kate Torralba’s event tonight. I asked her to make me something different that fits my taste (which she’s an expert in, by the way), and I’m going to be wearing it for the world to see tonight and I simply cannot wait. Will post photos of the event when I get the chance.

Love,

Mrs. Supergift.


This is the video for Bipolar’s 3rd and current single, “Sana” directed by Pancho Esguerra — and it is 2009 in Manila. Enjoy.
