Today, I swear I’m not doing anything

Because it’s my birthday! That is why today, I’m gonna lay back… stretch my feet, maybe raise them up on the couch… I believe, I deserve this. Got too much on my plate as of late, and believe me, the toll it’s taken on my sanity… or whatever left of it, is unimaginable! So now, [...]

Cute Thriller

Yes, maybe we’ve seen one video too many of the Thriller song by Michael Jackson, there’s the famous and viral Cebu dancing inmates which started the trend of “dancing whatever” in the Philippines (many groups/offices  have since adopted dancing as “part of their services”) and many more video tributes all over the world. Still here’s [...]

Batuin: First Kapampangan Rock Musical – The Audition

Yesterday, I attended the audition for Batuin, the first Kapampangan rock musical play. Oh no, I did not go there to audition. I went to there to observe the proceedings and eventually write about it and help them promote the play. An advocate of the Kapampangan language as of late, I try to attend as [...]

Why I sing on YouTube

I know I don’t have the voice of Arnel Pineda, the charm of Charice Pempengco, nor even the wit and appeal of Roadfill and Moymoy Palaboy. So why the hell am I singing on YouTube?! Two things – I can and I want to. Seriously now, I sing on YouTube not to showcase the talent [...]

Puso Ko’y Binihag Mo

Here I am, sharing again another one of my original compositions, this one is called Puso Ko’y Binihag Mo, a song I wrote back in the 90′s. A love song that speaks of a man’s love and his longing to always see the woman of his dream and hopes that one day he would hear [...]

Be Happy: Original Composition

When I am not spewing rants and gibberish thoughts on my blogs, or when I am not killing anyone in my short stories, waxing some poetic woes, shooting videos, or doing some doodles, I can be found strumming on the guitar, singing my blues away. And most of the time, what I played on my [...]

Because it’s my birthday

iBlog6: The UP Concert Chorus intermission number

Just because the iBlog6 blogging summit is all about blogging, it doesn’t mean the day’s proceedings would be confined to search engine optimization, making money online and niche marketing. After all, blogging involved a medley of interests. That is why it is not surprising that in the recent iBlog6, there was an intermission number performed [...]

The Earth Song

With everything that is happening around us – Haiti, Chile and the onslaught of Ondoy and Pepeng last year in the Philippines, it is not really impossible to think that Mother Nature is getting back at us. Indeed we have done so much damaged to our planet, and now those actions have caused the Earth [...]
