A Walk to the Stars

he Perksquad strikes again, and this time, we took Tomas Morato by storm with our classic butchering of impossibly high songs like Alone by Heart, Bon and Paul's almost-the-real-thing rendition of Backstreet Boy's As Long as You Love Me, Sam-AM-Eunice-Japhet's blurred and slurred take on Spice Girl's Wannabe and our Nora Aunor/ nasal version of our all time favorite Total Eclipse of the Heart.

I looove the Videoke place. Its so Boogie Nights that I suddenly had the urge to wear skates a la Heather Graham. And since I am only accustomed to the Videoke el Cheapo with its tattered song books, It was quite a challenge for me to get used to the hi-tech way of choosing songs. At kamustahin mo, I was so convinced that the tv was touch screen that I had to literally touch the screen to prove myself wrong(to the sheer amusement of the Perks).

That night was fun! Sayang, Atoy and Abby werent able to come.* They did not get to see Eunice in a simple collared manly shirt and Japhet in a blouse! haha. At si eunice, may attempt pag magpalit ng damit into a ta-daaaa! Another collared manly shirt! Si japhet, well, i thought magpapalit rin sha at tatangalin ang kanyang girly (blouse) shirt at magpapalit into... racerback! hahaha.Mga crossdressers! Classic talaga. You must understand my amusement for Eunice's attempt to dress down. This rarely happens, especially when we go out. The last time i saw her in a simple shirt and (ahem) baggy pants was in 1st year college when we went to Tagaytay for an org event, I think.

aaaargh! We should do this more often. But just like what everybody knows, its hard to find one common schedule for 8 people, especially when one is burning her eyebrows in Law school.

See you next year, Eunice! hehehe. Next time, mag jeep na tayo ha? Bawal nang lakarin ang kahabaan ng Tomas Morato.





*don't worry abby, you'll have to pay some damage fee din naman so, parang andun ka na rin. hehe.

The (really) Long Weekend

I am struggling to bring back my writing skills. Its not the lack of things to write about but the lack of energy that's sapping all my creative juices dry. Plus, I have lost all my reasons to whine and everyone knows I'm great at whining.

Considering the long weekend, notice that there's not much update in my blog. I am soooooooooo bored and everything that I do seems like a routine to me. Here are the things that are me keeping me occupied (and sane) this weekend:

reading Milan Kundera's Unbeable Lightness of Being

listening to Macy Gray's Best of album (All songs are great. Still, I try, Why Didnt You Call Me, When I See You, and yes, Sexual Revolution-awesome, awesome, awesome song)

watching Psych, The Simpsons (season 9), The OC (season 3), my favorite Supernatural episodes (Bloody Mary, Asylum, Provenance), House (again)

Listening to Frou Frou/ Imogen Heap- check out her songs Only Got One, Let Go (favorite!), Its Good to Be in Love. She's got an excellent voice that keeps one in a state of trance

Watching National Geographic- my favorite series is Hunted Hunter and I Didnt Know That
*****
Long Weekends are a tragedy for people trying to slim down. Dont... eat...those... cookies... and doughnuts... aaargh! Its so hard.

Cant wait to get back to work... or not.
