I remember way back then, sometime in May 2007 when I attended the orientation of new students in Asia Pacific College, I said and promised to myself that, "I'm going to graduate on this school," while wearing a smile in my face.

Right now, those words I said before, that promised I made before has now converted into reality.  Like a man seeking a way to a certain place, now in the end of the road and ready to enter the place he was looking for.  I already graduated from college, the days where I used to be student has just ended and now ready to face a new life.  The beginning of the real challenges in life.

Month from now, I will be entering the concrete jungle where I need to battle against other people to survive, using skills to be hired first in the top and fast growing organization before others.  Battling with companies to companies, business to business, making strategies and decision that will decide your fate.  This is the new life that I will be facing, and it's just the beginning,  I maybe still not ready for this, but I will surely and rest assured to myself that I am going to be ready.  I believed that confidence and competency are the factors that must be equipped of to become ready and to survive this fight.

But even though being a student days has passed, learning will always be there.  Even though I am not going to school anymore to study, I will able to learn by means of experience, just like in the mmorpg's, the more experience you will gain, the stronger you will be.  With or without our consent, everyday we will learn new things that we can used and apply to our very own life that would make our life worth it and meaningful.

I miss this, I just miss doing this late at night, relaxing music and solemn yet calm night.  I remember the days when I used to be in front of the PC, just in front of PC doing nothing, but just listening to relaxing music.  With a calm mind and has nothing to think of, without worrying about tomorrow's assignment or quizzes, next week's project, next day's presentation and etc.; thinking of just scenarios that happened, sad memories that was being buried in past and happy memories that used to cherish all the time.  Thinking of what will happen tomorrow and in the future, about goal and dreams. Talking with God, thanking for all the blessings that I received, asking forgiveness for all the sins I've done and asking for guidance and protection for me and my family all the time.  I just miss doing this, and right now, again, just like the old times, here in front of PC, media player on, using my spare time putting my thoughts into words.  I just love doing this.

A girl I've seen last tuesday at the jeep that catches my attention.

Lunch Box's First Live Performance

This is the First Live Performance of my band, Lunchbox at Ozine Fest '11 held last April 8, 9 and 10 at SM Megamall Megatrade hall 2 and 3.  Our first song is the TV size version of Pride by Scandal in the Anime Star Driver and the second one is entitled Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! by Bouno!, one of the ending songs in the Anime Shugo Chara.  And by the way, I'm the one wearing the red chikara hat :D

"I like being by myself, I just feel uncomfortable being with other people" - Erza Scarlet, Fairy Tail.

The statement about describes what kind of person I am.  I hate to admit it, but it's the truth, that I am sometimes, somehow like this. I like being by myself and don't want to hang out with other people; being myself doesn't mean all the time, there are times that I just want to be alone, it's not being emo, but it's just the kind of life I used to live with.  But it's not a sad life that you may think, for me it's just the way of calming my mind, reflecting, and talking with God.  It just looked like I'm sad, but Whenever I do this, I always thought of happy things.  Well you see, I am a jolly person as well, but I used to share both of these personalities.  It's weird, but the truth is, it's only in my appearance that I looked sad, but deep inside, I'm not :D

This is the first time that there was a person who made such an effort just to thank me for the simple things that I've done.  The photo above is the letters given to me by a different person but in fact was from only one person, I mean that person asked these different person to give me those letter to surprise me, and yes! I was really surprised with that and really appreciated that effort.  And by the way, in those letters, you can see inside it "Thank You" in different languages, isn't nice? ^_^

My Bandmates [Lunch box + Scandal Sentimental]

The above picture, as stated are my band mates.  Actually I have two bands, where my original band was named Lunch box and the other one is Scandal Sentimental.  Scandal Sentimental was actually a group of 4 cosplayers who cosplay Scandal, it just happened that we, Lunch box were asked to perform with them for the celebration of their debut, and because of that Lunch box met Scandal Sentimental.  As you can see in the picture, the 3 other boys there are my band mates in Lunch box, while the 4 girls are the member of Scandal Sentimental.  We just met them personally last saturday on an Anime convention that was held in Robinson's Manila.  We're planning to have an intermission number for the debut of Scandal Sentimental on April's Anime convention, Ozine fest '11 and also planning to compete on a battle of the bands contest that was also part of Ozine fest's event.  I just hope that schedules will not ruin our plan, Gambatte to all of us guys! ^_^

An early dismissal was given to us by our professor last thursday in our Buslaw1 class.  It was around 2:00pm and it's too early to go home, so I asked my classmates if we can just stay up to 3:00pm.  We decided to wait until 3:00pm at our school cafeteria.  We talk about different things, when one of my classmate (boy) saw a gorgeous girl, he asked my other classmate (girl) if she can ask for the girl's number, my classmate answered him back and said, "seryoso ka ba? kasi hihingiin ko talaga number nya" and then I interrupted their conversation and said, "sige hingiin mo na."  After realizing that the girl that my classmate have seen was really gorgeous.  And then after a couple of minutes, my classmate stood up and we asked her, "o san ka pupunta?" She answered, "hihingin ko yung number nya, sabi nyo diba?"  Then I went to the comfort room, and when I went back, I asked her if she already got that girl's number and surprisingly she really had it, my other classmate didn't want to get it so I decided to get so the effort of my classmate won't go for nothing.

While I'm doing some guitar maintenance at home, I remembered the girl that my classmate saw and remembered that I have her number, fortunately she is a globe user as well, with some courage (because of the fact that that was my first time doing that) I decided to text her, I felt a little nervous for no reason, I think it's because that was the first time I've done it.  And then after a minute, I am surprised that she replied back to me.  Obviously, her reply was "Who's this?". I introduced my self and then talk about different things.  She was very nice and kind, she talk nicely to me even though she don't know me and even I think I'm already annoying her because of my nonsense questions.  Hmm, that's all, I just want to share this :)
