Internet, Technilogy, Paypal Philippines, etc

lagi akong lasing the past few days.

alam mo yung masuka-suka ka na parang gusto mong mamatay na sa dami ng alcohol sa katawan mo? o kaya yung hassle kasi mag-iinom ka sa kanto, tapos ang layo ng bahay mo, tapos maiihi ka at walang malapit na banyo? shempre yung mga kasama mo pwedeng sa pader, ok go na eh ikaw, mapipilitan kang umuwi. pero bitin kasi gusto mo pang uminom. o kaya yung magigising kang hindi mo alam kung pano ka nakauwi? or worse, may katabi kang hindi mo kilala?

hindi ganyan, parang yung picture sa taas ng p@#$%^inang whale na lasing.
hindi ganun.
hindi ganun yung mga inom ko the past few days.

sakto lang, as in steady. tapos usually may banyong maayos sa malapit (sorry pero talagang issue ko yung banyo pag umiinom eh - kasi naman, sa labanang pader vs banyo - in terms of likelihood na makakahanap ng pader o banyo, sobrang talo ang banyo). tapos beer lang - red horse, san mig, or kahit yung putanginang coors na lintek na yan san ba galing yan ang pait pait ampanget ng lasa pero sige pwede ka na kasi wala nang iba - ok na ok ako sa beer. except nung sabado, nag-the alchemist si poldo at gumawa ng gold from gin preem, mango-orange-pineapple-isa pang fruit na hindi ko maalala, at sprite. pero pagtapos nun beer ulit.

good friends, good drinks. tapos may mga makikilala kang makukulit habang umiinom. steady. tapos pag-uwi mo, may magte-text sayo na "twas really nice meeting u"

haba ng p*%$@#in*ng hair mo no.

pero ito ang pinakamasayang tanong:
baket ka umiinom?
anong meron?
anong wala?


hopefully , what they say is true: sabi nga nila, it's just a phase lang to.


INOM PA!

naman mahal na mahal ko tong freedom bar sa anonas. malapit na sa mcdo, pinapatugtog pa kami. ang saya.

every last wednesday of the month meron silang production ng mga female bands, or female-fronted bands. so aside from fuseboxx, chubibo, cherry cornflakes, milk and money, etc, shempre, pasok kaming shinjuku lager clubdun. so minsan napapadpad kami dun at nakiki-jam sa mga fellow female-fronted bands, or yung female band talaga.

so.

nung wednesday shempre last wed of the month for feb, gig kami. at inip na inip ako. kasi naman 630pm palang palaboy-laboy na ako sa cubao, nagkataong maaga ako nakaalis ng opisina. syempre ang call time 730pm (para sa mga hindi naliligaw sa dakong anonas o cubao, kung mage-lrt ka mula cubao papuntang anonas: 3mins = bumili ng tiket; 3-8mins = hintay sa platform para sa tren; 3mins = sa loob ng tren; 8mins = lakad mula tren hanggang anonas. TOTAL: 17-22mins). syempre ang aga ko kasi 730pm andun na talaga ako (sa paghihintay, kumain ng blueskies with onion springs habang nagbabasa ng magasin sa may balcony ng freedom bar. kung marunong ako mag-DOTA, sana naki-DOTA muna ako sa isa sa mga maraming DOTA-han sa ground flr nung building kung nasaan ang freedom bar. pero hindi ako marunong at lalong wala ako sa mood matuto nung mga panahong yon kaya yon nalang ang akin ginawa - tumira ng blueskies). dumating si guitarist paolo ng mga 8pm, si poldo bassist ng 815pm, si jayson drummer ng mga 10pm.

ang nangyari dahil late kami sa call time= 2nd to the last kami sa 20 bands na scheduled nung gabing iyon. 19th kami.

napayosi nalang ako nung nalaman ko yon.

so halos lahat napanood ko. liban dun sa mga tumugtog nung kumain ako (kasi hindi na natawid ng blueskies yung gutom ko), mga panahong payosi-yosi at nagpapahangin na rin sa labas, mga usapan sa labas sa mga kakilala at nakilala at nakipagkilala nung gabing iyon, pinanood ko lahat.

ang bandang top1 para sa akin nung gabing iyon: AKI. female-fronted 7-piece band na blues ang tugtugan. ang galing, grabe. kung trip mo mga stevie ray vaughn, cream/eric clapton, aretha, bb king, lil milton, mga ganun, ok to. puntahan mo sila ngayon na: http://akibanda.multiply.com/

masaya naman nung tumugtog na kami - very alive yung mga tao kahit dead hour na ng 2pm. masaya. nagka-clap pa sila. ang galing nga eh, kakatuwa. para namang sulit yung gabi.

all in all, masaya. kahit 7 oras ako nakatambay sa freedom bar oks lang. ganun talaga. kaysa naman nasa bahay ako at nagyo-yosi ng mag-isa, insomniac na wala sa tamang hulog diba?

FREEDOM!!!

dahil nabuhay ren ang thread niya...

buhayin ko nga ren ang akin... wooot! mamaya na update!

kelangan ko pag mag practice ng tekken 6...

and i hope this time... matalo ko na mga koreano kong kalaban...

sska dapat... mamaster ko na si bob...

nasa makati ako nung nag-rally nung feb15. ang saya diba = feb 14, heart's day. feb 15 = gamitin niyo naman yung mga paa niyo't mag-rally't sumigaw. ok diba, balanced. lalo na kung naniniwala ka - ok yon.

sa mga nagtatanong kung naki-rally ako, gustuhin ko man, may trabaho ako. kaya ako nasa makati, kasi dun ako nagta-trabaho. ang galing nga eh - malapit na malapit ako sa lugar kung saan sila nagra-rally at dumadaa sila sakto sa kalye ng building ko. anlupet. parang langgam tour de force yung itsura galing sa glass window ng opisina. malufet.

so. nasa office at walang magawa kahit naglolokohan na sa broadband. eto ang mga naisip kong gawin para maki-isa sa rally:

1. pwede namang mag-absent kahit half day or undertime. PERO, may malaki akong ginagawa at hindi siya option kasi masisisante ako pag hindi ko ginawa yon. mahal ko bansa ko pero pre, trabaho yon, corrupt na nga lahat wala pa akong derbs, lintik naman diba?
2. magtapon ng confetti, lalo na pag nasa may dadaanan ka ng rally. hindi ko ba alam pero tuwang tuwa mga nagra-rally pag may confetti. napaka-EDSA1.  palibhasa maraming scratch paper sa opisina - at least nakaka-boost ng morale. mahirap lang nga linisin. note din na dapat madami - hindi pwedeng isang batch lang ng shredded paper ang ihuhulog. dapat madaming madami, or madaming madami kayong naghuhulog ng confetti. pag konti, baduy.
3. magmasid. sumigaw mag-isa. pero para kang baliw non. lalo na pag andun boss mo. lagot ka.
4. magbigay ng blow-by-blow coverage. malamang, kasi anudun ka na rin lang, mamalita ka na rin lang. kung magada ang vantage point mo, lalong masaya at mas-mainam ang coverage.
5. mamigay ng tubig at pagkain. yung actual pagbigay 10mins lang yon, depende yung san ka sa makati. kung entrepreneurial ka, magbenta. tulad nung mangtataho at yung mga mamang fishbol. benta yon. pero dapat mura - tandaan mo, hindi cafeteria tinatayo mo. kumbaga, street hawking ka. ayusin ang presyo kundi, sayan

incubus incubus, andaling nalimas ang ticket sa patron.

hhaaaayy... naubusan ako ng patron ticket ah... baka bagsak ko neto eh upper box b ule! just like in FOB! dapat makakuha na ako ng pera para lower box man lang.

panu pa kaya pag maghubad na si pareng brandon?? lahat ng girls bababa sa VIP. LOLS!

hehe... sana sa lower box man lang...

sabihin niyo na ang gusto niyong sabihin, pero para sakin sobrang malupet tong tao na ito!

(sorry di ako makahanap ng pic, F@#$%~ internet pagod na ito)


Whoa! AI auditionee, Reynaldo Lapuz, now an Internet hit

Reynaldo Lapuz, the flamboyant Nevada-based Filipino who breezed his way through the American Idol auditions, has now become an instant Internet sensation, spawning fans all over the world to remix his infectious song, “We’re Brothers Forever." (click here para sa mga samu't saring video versions)

Reynaldo’s AI Season 7 audition piece was the top favorite of the week, with more than 6,000 hits in the video sharing Web site YouTube.

In fact, his audition piece has become so popular that about five of his now famous video clips landed in the top 10 most favorite for the week, totaling to about 21,000 favorites as of posting time.

Since it was uploaded on January 16, Reynaldo’s seven-minute video has attracted more than 650,000 views (as of 11 pm, Tuesday), which is also among the top views in YouTube for the week.

Despite being tagged as the next William Hung, Reynaldo’s indisputable edge seems to be his passionate a cappella, “We’re Brothers Forever," which inspired a throng of his admirers to fill the missing music to his power-ballad song.

Elliot Bronson strummed his guitar providing an acoustic theme to Reynaldo’s signature song, while fellow YouTube user, Rocko, added Pinoy beatbox to give the song a more upbeat hip-hop sound.

But perhaps one of the standout remixes to “We’re Brothers Forever" is the hypnotic Dance Remix, where two American cheerleaders, complete with matching silver pompoms, are seen gyrating to Reynaldo’s song.

These video clips and more can now be seen on Reynaldo’s official fansite.

The Reynaldo interview

“While I was watching, I felt nervous, like doing the audition again," Reynaldo said in an interview with local Dallas TV network, FOX 4 .

“Over-to-the-maximum of happiness, really,"Reynaldo said, describing his feeling after the auditions.

Reynaldo is optimistic that his AI stint is only the beginning of more blessings in his life, and perhaps, career.

“Hopefully it would be a continuous progress. I expect, you know, blessings…," he said.

According to Reynaldo, the hit song he wrote for terror-judge Simon Cowell, was meant to spread the word that Simon is a good person who spends millions of dollars just to look for a new talent.

Early on in the audition, Simon was unimpressed with Reynaldo, until later, when the terror-judge began waving his hands as if conducting the Filipino singer.

Fellow AI judge Randy Jackson became so amused that he called in AI host Ryan Seacrest to listen in on Reynaldo's performance, while fellow Idol judge Paula Abdul danced like a 60s go-go dancer.

No age limit?

Reynaldo said his friends prodded him to join the AI auditions.

“Hey Brother Rey, why don’t you join American Idol?" Reynaldo recalled his friends telling him.

“There’s no age-limit, check it again", his friends told him, amid Reynaldo’s hesitation.

AI only accepts aspiring singers who are not more than 28 years old. Reynaldo turned 45 last December 18.

The ‘Flash’ outfit

Even before Reynaldo walked in the audition room, Seacrest immediately noticed his outrageous white flashy ensemble.

“I don’t know what to wear, because in the paper it states dress to impress," Reynaldo said.

In the interview, he confessed that it took him two weeks to prepare his costume, inspired by comics hero, Flash, and the film “Gladiator."

But for his feathered cowboy hat, Reynaldo said Elton John’s 1969 hit “Skyline Pigeon" was his inspiration.

“That’s it! That’s what made the whole outfit," he said. - GMANews.TV
