Sometimes you simply just need to give people a pat on the back.......with a sledgehammer.

Sometimes, we just need to remind ourselves that we report to the office TO WORK, and NOT TO MAKE FRIENDS.

Sunday By The Bay

Nothing beats sun, wind, sea and good company. 

Late lunch at Pancake House by Manila Bay




All things nice are drenched in blueberry syrup

We're Wicked!

This is one of those days where one keeps thinking is this worth the wait? Is this worth my money (common we paid a hefty sum for those almost front row seats)? Are the actors good enough? Is the production spectacular?

All questions answered, all expectations met, even exceeded. As early as 12 noon, CCP Theater was already filled with spectators taking pictures and selfies.

We were not exempted.....


I wonder what he and Glinda are exchanging whispers about......


Considering that I have been up all night and have not slept due to a pressing emergency at work, I wonder how I have managed to summon the energy for this. He, on the other hand is in his usual preppy self.

We never realized how close we were to the stage until we entered. It wasn't anything like this in the online diagram of seat arrangements. Oh well.

The stage looks rather small from certain angles maybe because of the intricate mechanisms involved. I love the backdrop though

And more selfies....

I wasn't exaggerating when I said that the stage had intricate mechanisms and elaborate props. Look at this dragon on top. It is a prop but it also has a mechanism which adds effect to certain scenes.

and selfies.....

The cast waving the audience farewell after one great show


I have to admit,I have been Glindafied! Glinda and Elphaba were my favorite among the cast. The actors playing these roles were perfect to be each others' opposing force. I would have hoped to see Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth perform but Ali Calder (standby for Jemma Rix) and Suzie Mathers were both forces to be reckoned with.

I love how Ali can go from one vocal range to another and how Suzie would bring Glinda to life. Many will agree with me though when I say that the highlight of the show was Ali singing Defying Gravity with that spine tingling voice. That alone gave me goosebumps(maybe because most people are familiar with the song thanks to Glee)

I would love to see them over and over and over again......

It is but sad that the people we meet on a daily basis only see the surface of who we really are. Had they took time to scratch that surface, they will find a different version of us underneath....

ME

by: Paula Cole





I am not the person who is singing
I am the silent one inside
I am not the one who laughs at people's joke
I just pacify their ego

I really have issues with people who ask a lot of questions and require an explanation via SMS, only to get a reply with the atomic symbol of Potassium.

Hello! Who wants to talk about Potassium?

Living together means that you're both supposed to share the load of responsibilities. But what if that isn't the case?

The Story Of My Adolescence

The story of my youth is basically summarized in this clip...

THE A TEAM

Lost a phone and my powerbank today. Whoever stole it must probably need the money badly....

I just realized that I have stopped laughing in the office since Lola B left. Laughing doesn't make sense without her. She is the only person who "gets" me.

Happy Valentine's!

And at the end of the day, something sweet comes along...

The rest of the world is celebrating Valentine's Day. For some of us, it is just Friday.

12 February 2014

I know that I am more than what I am perceived to be, but on a brighter note, I am being taught humility. In the future, when the opportunity presents for me to unleash the greatness that is constantly being overlooked in me, I know that the same humility will keep me grounded and save me from myself.

Booked!

It seems we have finally decided where vacay will be....

Just Another Tagaytay Escapade

Just when you think you have left the stressful traffic in Manila, it follows you to Tagaytay.



Driving around Tagaytay is probably the most relaxing experience next to lying under the sun on a beach....



Finally, lunch is served. It is freezing up here, but the view is great.

Fish Be With You

If you happen to go south, never miss the opportunity to visit Nuvali. As the name implies, it is a hotpot of everything that's modern and old, of nature and technology. Feel free to feed the fish too!
