Finishing Last

Things that are easily acquired, obtained, or maintained, without any effort or sacrifice, lack value... it's human nature.

Maybe...

Circular Star Tracks

A 45-minute time exposure made for circular star tracks is seen over this run-down barn along County Road A near Iron River, Wis., Sunday night, Feb. 15, 2009. During the time exposure, the barn was lit with a battery powered spotlight using a technique called light painting.

Amazing isn't it?

Errata

The Eraserheads went onstage for their reunion concert on August 30, 2008 at the Fort Open Field, Taguig City, which was cut short unexpectedly. The continuation of the concert was held at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds on March 7, 2009. However, according to the band, the new concert will not be a continuation, but rather "a whole new gig" because they will do "totally new things" compared to the previous concert.

ERASERHEADS: The Final Set

I love them. Filipinos love them. Especially if you come to know them while you're growing up. You'll agree with me. Their songs are easy to sing songs. Songs that inspired so many artists/bands nowadays; has meaningful lyrics, sometimes funny or sometimes tells you something about their or our ordinary lives. But the most wonderful thing about it is that you remember your childhood. You reminisce as you hear their songs playing on the radio. You brag to your friends that you have their new album, that you have chuckies, that you can play their songs in simple chords, that you actually fought for them when people said that they are influenced by demons (have you heard their tapes played backwards? Well, I did. some people say they have backwards-masked Satanic messages in their songs). Yeah, those things definitely gives you happy thoughts. But to be in a live concert?!? Goosebumps. Adrenaline rush (some people I know couldn't get out of their beds simply because they're still tired. No wonder).

Last Saturday, it was my all-time-favorite band's concert, Eraserheads at Mall of Asia। Yeah, it's the final set of their supposedly first reunion concert held last August but due to Ely's heart problems they hadn't finished it until their final set. Well, I wasn't there to witness myself their concerts. The heck, there's Youtube. People are so eager to take videos of them from their cellphones because they know they are partaking in the history of music. Hell, the history of Eraserheads! I wondered and agreed with Jessica Zafra why their concert is preceded by death akin to Mr. Rapper, Francis Magalona's death. They paid tribute to him by singing Kaleidoscope's chorus, chanting his name before singing Superproxy and included again (loving it!) the new upbeat rendition of Alapaap by Raymund Marasigan. But of course, there's Ang Huling El Bimbo....hayz...I can't wait for the DVD to come out. I am definitely gonna buy it! I love Eraserheads! Weeeeeh!

By the way, I have stumbled upon this other version of Ang Huling El Bimbo. Enjoy!

Hanuba!

a.  don't force me to give reasons..i have none..don't give me that silly look, dabbing me with scrutiny, you don't run my life and I don't either...so better yet, let's mind our own lives..and, one thing more... never ask why..
 
b.
1.  I walk down the street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in.  I am lost... I am hopeless. It isn't my fault. It takes forever to find a way out.
2.  I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I pretend I don't see it. I fall in again. I can't believe I'm in the same place. But it isn't my fault. It still takes a long time to get out.
3.  I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I see it is there.  I still fall in.... it's a habit. My eyes are open, I know where I am. It IS my fault. I get out immediately.
4. I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it.
5. I walk down another street.

c.  fancy gifts won't do...flowers and chocolates are over used..words--empty..argh! Jst call me..that'll do..ü

Ano ba...masyado namang madrama si K.O.B.
