Me and the rest of the students of St. Cecilia Music Studio will be part of a recital to be held at the Lyric Building in Alejos Street, La Loma QC. Please come guys!

Directions: 1) (Coming from Tayuman LRT station) Ride a jeep en route to Espana. Stop at Dimasalang corner Retiro and ride a jeep going to Retiro/Munoz. You’ll pass through the Laloma Welcome Arch. Once you see a Caltex station lying next to a restaurant (PARES is its name) on your left side, drop yourself off and cross the street and to the corner of Pares where you’ll see a street sign (Alejos street). Turn left and there you’ll see the Lyric Building with the word LYRIC written right smack in front of it. that’s the venue!

2) (Coming from Blumentritt LRT Station) Getting off from there, find a jeep going to Retiro/Munoz where it will directly take you to Laloma. Drop off by the Caltex station and turn left to Alejos.

3) (Coming from Avenida Rizal), Go to Dimasalang on the direction towards UST, turn left to Retiro and drop yourself off near Alejos the moment you see the Caltex station on your left side.

The CSB Experience 2: How I Met Your Buddies (And Others As Well)

    I don’t know what’s happening but I’m meeting a whole lot of people from left to right, right to left, and in-between. New people, not-so-new people, and friends of friends whom I haven’t met, and friends of friends whom I haven’t heard. plus friends of friends of friends as well as friends of friends I see but never greet and meet and became classmates with, hehehe. :duleng:

I’m being discreet so baka malito kayo. If you could let me mention some names, I would.

  Last term I met two of Mandy’s buddies, Andy and Yana.  All I can say is that they’re fun! then there’s Coco, Jeff’s high school BFF (joke!) who is very lively (I bore you aren’t I?). then I also have this classmate which is the girlfriend of a firend of my schoolmate who is also the blockmate of my other classmate in my other class last term. Then there is a set of friends of my acquiantances taht I have known since last term for which their unique individuality is their greatest asset. Confusing, yes.

    Right now, I just met many of :toot: (and friends)’s  friends from her (and theirs) other classes, and we just had a very intelligent conversation when I had lunch at the SDA caf. Meanwhile I am also classmates with the boyfriend of my ex-classmate who is also the friend of my schoolmate as well as the blockmate of my other ex-classmate. Meanwhile I’m also classmates with his friend who is the buddy of my previously mentioned set of friends. A former classmate from last term is also buds with the aforementioned and we’re all in one class.

    Meanwhile my classmate from summer class is also my classmate for this term. He knows one of my former classmates from last term who is also my classmate in two classes for which us three are in one of them.

    My co-member in MMX is probably a blockmate of one of my friends as well as classmates with my other blockmates last term. He’s my classmate in one class and we got along well. Now my two-pair buds also have this classmate whom I’ve met while making tambay at the Caf.

    I’m finally classmates with many of my co-members of MMX who are friends of my blockmate’s co-alumnus. They range from the frequent participants of MMX activities to the frequent cosplayers during one of MMX’s events.

Hagggh! Nakakalito naman ‘to! Pati ako naduduleng!

In Blumentritt sein das erste mal/Being in Blumentritt the First Time

    I went to this place in Alejos corner Retiro in Laloma, QC this afternoon to check it out. In order to get there, I have to ride a jeep in Blumentritt st. down in the Blumentritt LRT station. I have heard of Blumentritt so many times, including its namesake. Tim Tayag, during a stint in Lakbay TV, even went there to eat some puto.

    The section of Blumentritt between Avenida Rizal and Leonor Rivera Street is crowded with pedestrians and outdoor vendors. There’s an existing jeepney route there but because of the cramped space, that particular section is now one way. Imagine Blumentritt minus the pedestrians, the vendors, the trash; it really has a lot of space. I wonder why that part came to be.

    Probably the root cause was the line of squatter colonies which used to occupy a stretch of the old PNR line (now demolished for the PNR rehabilitation). Mismanagement, poverty, bad aura coming from the design of the LRT Line 1, mixed zoning (industrial, commercial, residential), and bad governing from past Manila city mayors had but reduced Manila’s former financial center (all areas surrounding Avenia Rizal) into a polluted, poverty-stricken urban jungle!).

    I’m still hoping that by the time that whole PNR line (Northrail and Southrail) is fully rehabilitated and modernized, good development will come to these areas such as Blumentritt.

There are some things that I wanna learn and there are some things that I wanna. And yet I can’t, that’s the problem. I don’t wanna say for the nth time about factors and all those :toot!: why I can’t seem to do what I wanna do.

What’s most ironic is that people around me were able to do those stuff :waghhh:. As I write this I just realized that I’ve already said all my “hinanakit” on a previous blog post so try to look on that.

 

Things I dream to have and hold and learn:

1.Own laptop (either mac or windows)

2. Learn photoshop and harness its power to use its full potential

3. Finally have myself my own professional SLR camera and and learn all of its hidden secrets (My dad used to have a Nikon SLR since before I was born. But he had it sold a long time ago).

4.Be good at personalizing my own website

5. Unlock the secrets of Multiply

6. Join a group of talented people (other than MMx, I’mcurrently eyeing DLSU Pops Orchestra)

7.Possess good skills in drawing (gotta read that book about good drawing my mom gave me last christmas)

8. Learn the basics of photography (gotta reread “DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY: tricks of the trade” all over again :):) )

9. Tap the hidden mysteries of Dreamweaver once again (Florante and Saladin again)

10. Nawala hehehe
