If you guys still haven’t watched these amazing videos, I SUGGEST YOU READ BACK MY POST NOOOWW!! Come on guys, it’s worth it! Thanks for all the comments on my last post
Everything has a beginning and everything has an end. Whoever said that matter is neither created nor destroyed is BULL because there is the creation of the universe and unless everything was just like instant noodles, then we’d assume that the universe was here all along. There is then no concept of time or anything because a human being just can’t fathom such vast knowledge. Remember that scene in Indiana Jones (the latest one, the one that didn’t live up to its predecessors actually) when Cate Blanchett’s character was absorbing all the knowledge of the universe from *TOOOT* (no spoilers here! XD) and she couldn’t take it and was blown to smithereens? Well I imagine that that would happen to me if I know everything. I believe that God created all so matter did have a creation. sort of Haha And as for the end… will the universe end? Well go back to Indiana Jones story and you’ll know my answer. I think that if it is meant to be known, we’ll know then or probably after life.
Sorry for such an “emo” introduction but I can’t help thinking about the past, the present and the future now. It all connects to saying goodbyes. I hate saying goodbyes especially to the people I love. I really disagree with Elton John and I think that somtimes, Sorry isn’t the hardest word. Goodbye is. Sometimes you can’t even say it. You can’t even look at the person (okay maybe sometimes sorry is really hard to say coz you also get these symptoms) and you can’t help but look away or don’t even attend the departure of that person anymore. I’m not good at adapting, this is why I sucked when we changed sections in grade four. And it also sucked when I had to say goodbye to 2 of my best friends because they were changing schools. I thought that nothing would change even after that but… OF COURSE IT DID. I had even MORE trouble saying goodbye to my dogs (when they passed away) and then saying goodbye to my brother when he went to Portugal for his Junior Term Abroad a year ago and I did shed a tear
And now one of my closest blockmates is going to Korea for 9 months for this sponsored exchange program and I am genuinely happy for her because this is such a BIG opportunity and plus she’ll be going to her dream country and probably meet up with Korean boy bands and get a Korean boyfriend and I am so happy for her! This is a dream come true! But to see one of the closest person in the block, one of the nicest persons you’ve ever met just go away for 9 months, you suddenly imagine all sorts of things like what would happen to you when you get left behind. Things would definitely change.
And I think of my own sojourn to France this September – December. I’ll be pondering on how I’ll be taking this, and how my parents would be taking this too and how everything would change. There must be a beginning to everything but it means the ending of a phase. Of a stage. Of something important but it’s the beginning of an opportunity also!
HOW CRUEL LIFE IS!
*pauses and contemplates…meditates…*
Okay I feel a little better now
I just attended my first Kpop concert, F.T. Island’s, ever with Gie (she’s the one going to Korea!) and I was even HESITANT of going! Well one thing, I wasn’t a true fan (heck I didn’t even know the names of the members, their songs except for one, the theme song of You Are Beautiful <- AWESOME telenovela for my international friends who love these kinds of things. WATCH IT) but it was the first event that my aunt organized and I decided to support her(plus it was discounted)! And plus Gie really wanted to go so it'll be a bonding moment for us! It was also her first concert EVER. I was soo thankful that it was in an enclosed area. I swear, concerts in the Philippines SHOULD BE ENCLOSED. Even if open-grounds concerts are fun, IT'S JUST TOO BLASTED EFFING CRAPPING F$%^$^(&$&& HOT HUMID HOT HOT HOT!!!! Really, it's just the first week of March and EVERYTHING IS SCORCHING. I SWEAR IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE AND I'M GONNA MELT. I'LL MAKE MY REFRIGERATOR MY NEW HOME! Swear.... ARGH!!
Okay where was I? Oh yeah. CONCERT! IT WAS SOO MUCH FUN!! Because the singers talked to the audience (with the help of an interpreter host, haha XD IT WAS FUNNY!) and plus... I never realized that some of them LOOK GOOD IN PERSON. I actually didn't think of them cute in the posters but when you see them in person... you'd want to melt! And I liked 2 of the guys there, the one at the leftmost and at the rightmost. We were at the leftmost side but had a good view as we all shifted to the right too. XD And the thing was... I couldn't help but...ASSUME (but remember kiddos, assuming is BBAADDD) that Jaejin (leftmost dude) was looking at somebody at our side because... he KEPT LOOKING AT US!!! Swear, and I don't know, he'd even WAVE AT US. I don't know if I should assume that there was 1 second of eye contact between us.. HAHAHAA Okay I'm assuming too much but it would have been nice to say, "HEY I was able to make eye contact with a star, even for just 1 SECOND!" XD Haha am desperate much. Sorry guys! Didn't know the name of rightmost guy but he was the cutest!
Show was AWESOME but it was too short in my opinion aww man...
So some pics!
Gie and Me
The boys + their drummer not in picture XD haha!!
And for the last parting words… WATCH THIS CUTE LITTLE CHUBBY CAAT! One of the biggest cats I’ve seen!
Questions
1. What are your opinions on the creation of the universe? Big Bang? Creation Theory?
2. What’s the hardest word to say?
3. Have you ever been to a concert? If not whose concert would you DEFINITELY give up an arm or leg to go to?
4. Did you watch the fat cat?
***Comment freely***
Okay, cheesy title, what the heck. This is so unlikely of me. Sorry guys for making you all barf from the cheesiness. Turn to the right hand corner of my blog and you can um… *deposit* your disgust for me XD haha!!
Thank you for all those who advised me on which netbooks to get. I really appreciate it but for the meantime, my best friend and I have decided to delay our purchase because it’d be better to order later in the year and nearer to our departure date. Maybe finally then ASUS will release a grown up Disney laptop… I’m thinking of buying in the US because laptops there are cheaper! Hope that some of mum’s friends come home in July. But oh dear!! Only 5 and 1/2 months away until… I get my independence!! Well a little independence at least!
This is just a quick post. Suddenly I had this sudden urge to post…. about something… and that something is…
MAGIC.
Okay not the hocus pocus kind of magic. It’s this charm that some people have that will make turn you into jelly just because of their talents. Have you ever had the experience of stopping dead in your tracks, as in you’ve stopped eating, breathing, doing your assignments or whatever to just waste a few minutes just so you could listen or watch him/her? Well that happened to me twice this week and it’s all because of their TALENT.
It’s official, I simply love talent shows. Look what Britain’s Got Talent gave us, SUSAN BOYLE. I swear I cried after watching that audition. I mean just to see her unconsciously SLAP the audience’s faces by singing with all she had just… just brought tears to my eyes *thus the Cheesy title, my gosh…* And then you have American Idol (ALEX LAMBERT IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVORITE GUY CONTESTANT from this batch I do like Lee Dewyze and Andrew Garcia Girl faves could be Siobhan and Katie but I still have to decide tomorrow at their show!) bringing in talents like Melinda Doolittle (possible the BEST vocalist EVER on the show. EVER. And then America had to boot her out, WHYY!!! I keep rewatching her audition whenever I feel like I’m losing hope in American Idol (like last week) and hope that someone would SHINE like her. Carrie Underwood is still my top IDOL but Kelly Clarkson + David Cook + Kris Allen come close!
When finally the Philippines caught on and has decided to put up a talent show “Pilipinas Got Talent”, I was really hesitant because… I did not watch our local shows. I wasn’t really brought up on them because I was fed with the news, National Geographic and HBO and of course Cartoon Network as a kid so… there. I didn’t grow old with our local shows. But mum liked to watch them though so when one day, she was tuning in to Pilipinas Got Talent, I STOPPED walking and looked at the screen. Is this really what I’m seeing? A pianist with NO HANDS (incomplete arms guys, INCOMPLETE ARMS) and a girl who HAD A GUY’S VOICE? (okay so Nick Pitera can sing like a girl but I haven’t seen a girl singer who had a deep guy voice except maybe for Cher or Annie Lennox) I was really intrigued because they actually… SOUNDED GOOD!! Really!
You guys have to watch this. There’s English subtitles for all!
And then someone shared a link in my facebook, again about somebody in Pilipinas Got Talent. I was already in a hurry and just needed to check my email this morning but I said…what the heck, I’ll just play it. And then my ears heard such a wonderful golden voice of a young Filipino! He had such an amazing voice packed in a small frame! MY GOSH. YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS DUDE TOO! Dad says that he is waay better than the girl singer I shared above so pls, WATCH GUYS. My dad was left speechless and I was late for class this morning. It was that good so PLS WATCH. Also with subtitles
I teared up at the end too but not as much as Susan Boyle’s. This is why Talent shows are so… wonderful because you really DO NOT KNOW what gem you’ll discover underneath all this auditioning. Only a few will really stand out and when they do, you’ll find them in such UNLIKELY PLACES. These shows inspire other people and these shows are opportunities for such people. These shows make them BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES. You guys may have a different opinion but this is mine. Pls let me know what you think in the comments. I really do like to hear if you agree or disagree with me.
These videos are also special because… these people are more special because of what they have gone through. A lot of Filipinos like Jovit are impoverished and have so much little… and to be given such an opportunity as this and finding that HE has talent, is so inspiring. I hope to see more of him. Now it really makes me want to watch Pilipinas Got Talent
OH BEFORE I END HERE’S SOMETHING!!
I CAN’T WAIT TO WATCH ALICE IN WONDERLAND TOMORROW! I know that it has been running in our theatres for about 4 days already but I still have yet to watch it! I’m soo excited already and this will also be the last bonding session with my blockmate who will be going to Korea for 9 months on Tuesday I can’t wait to see this movie because my heart Johnny D is going to be there (despite him dressing up... like a clown XD) and it's Tim Burton's project! I'm kinda biased but am kinda frightened that this movie only got a 50+ rating at Rottentomatoes. Hope it's not that bad!
Here's the trailer
And here’s a contest for you guys to get a chance to win an ALICE IN WONDERLAND MERCHANDISE! Ends tonight dears!
Questions
1. What are your take on talent shows? Even just your old regular school talent shows?
2. What did you think of the 2 videos?
3. What’s your talent my dears? Sample? Just post an audio comment haha!! Play the Robot Unicorn Attack game again!! *I wanna be with you and make believe with you… and live in harmony harmony OH LOVE!!* XD XD

Some people are afraid of growing old, dying and worse, looking old. Look back through history and you get kings, emperors who risk their subjects’ lives just to find eternal youth. But good thing it’s not that deadly now in the 21st century because you can easily just get an botox injection if you find a wrinkle or two and you just need to suffer a few hours of discomfort and there, eternal beauty almost gained!
But aging is natural and why must we stop it so? Isn’t this a testament or mark of an important point of one’s history? It’s like an evidence of your achievement. Isn’t that worth keeping? That one wrinkle could mean the long hours you’ve put to inventing the cure for cancer (example only!). Sometimes looking old actually makes you really look wiser.
But of course, some would use health products for their own health purposes. Have you heard of turkey neck? As you grow old, skin loses elasticity and therefore the skin under your neck just hands there like how a turkey’s does. By eating healthy, exercising and getting enough vitamins and sometimes with the help of beauty products such as a Neck Firming Cream, you’d be able to rid yourself of these problems.
Actually you can actually help alleviate aging effects by maintaining a balanced diet which means very few sweets and junkfood and exercise everyday. It doesn’t even have to be strenuous exercise. What you need is healthy living.
