Random Thoughts-Scene 1

Imagine yourself sitting comfortably somewhere private, remote and nature laden like an oceanic view. The soft glare of the early morning sun warming your skin and the gently, intoxicating sea breeze sweeping all around you like an after thought. Now you are staring into the vastness of the ocean and instantly feel minute and insignificant to the world around you and the feeling of discordance and meaningless comes to mind as you keep on staring. Amidst all this you come to a glaring conclusion that no matter how insignificant you may be, you are in awe of the life and the world around you and no matter what the cost you must have the will to carry on and see what the future holds for you when you snap back into civilization. Remember that you are far away from the bustling city life. The urban jungle is but a memory now. You are almost in trance, save that you still feel the comfort of you sitting somewhere remote and alone with some drink in hand, preferrably a can of ice cold beer. Then reality kicks in... Imagine an ugly boot forever stomping on your head on the pavement of the future.

The Week in a bun

I have'nt been idling really for this past week, the usual suspects such as work and personal stuff that needed to be done all added up to my time as usual and made me not have some time to post something. Anyways, that doesn't sound like a good reason for the absence of post here. Nuff said.

During those times, other than the usual, me and my wife last Friday went on an island hopping trip via Alona, Bohol. Sorta like a romantic get up and stuff courtesy of my attorney bro as a gift of sorts. We went dolphin watching and Balicasag fish sanctuary snorkeling. We stayed at some resort which was way out of our price range and we have to find some reasonably priced place to eat out, luckily there were some but still steeply, however. The fish sanctuary I think was the highly of all the trips, unfortunately we were unable to do underwater photo shots with our meager camera. It was like swimming inside a huge marine aquarium. Lots of thriving colorful fishes in them coral communities. I even got the chance to feed them which was awesomer, them fishes nibbling at me hands. Dolphin watching was kinda like hide-and-seek though but lucky for us we had many moments where them elusive dolphin pack (are dolphins in a collective called packs?)would show their fins or even glide near our boat. It was a relaxing and unique experience for us city dwellers.

The Thursday before that me and a friend of mine recorded at the House of Indies recording studio(@ Mango Avenue, Cebu)a couple of industrial laden songs that were originally composed and released ages ago by the infamous Sodom and the Gahd Machine, a local avant garde-industrial laden progenitors of the Cebu local scene. It was our rendition their songs, "Then You'll Die" and "Christianity Syndrome". A tribute to the progenitors of this brand of music, Industrial Metal (from Wikipedia: a musical genre that draws from industrial music and heavy metal. It is usually centered around repeating metal guitar riffs, sampling, synthesizer or sequencer lines, and distorted vocals.Founding industrial metal groups include Ministry,Godflesh,and KMFDM)). An homage even. We haven't got a name to our outfit yet so I can't download the songs here or on Myspace music just yet, maybe these coming days when we finalize things, planning on making an E.P. as soon as we record some original material which my friend will be cooking up. I am actually just a hired hand, my friend, we'll all just call him ECPFlesh for reasons undisclosed just yet, does everything else except for the bass parts which is what I'm asked to do. It was his idea in the first place. I have my own industrial laden tunes but are put on hold as usual, uhmmm..heheh...nuff said.

The Anime in me

I've recently got the anime fever again much to my dismay. I've admired them since I was hooked with the Voltes 5 mania in the 80's when me and the other snot driven neighbor kids would watch the episodes on RPN9 on a lazy afternoon (?!) and sing to our hearts amusement on cue to the japanese theme song to god knows what they really meant. Since then I was hooked on anime and cartoons in general and geez I'm in my early 30's now and still watch them with gusto. From Hayao Miyazaki's master works to the anime series that come and go as the years went by like dragon ball, samurai x, ghost in a shell, gundam wing and recently naruto and bleach. I'm currently finishing off the Gundam X series (6 more episodes to go, wahooo) and I really like it so far. I'm eagerly awaiting on Gundam Seed Destiny which I both have on DVD. Makes me wanna start again on having them Gunpla's (Gundam Modeling Kit)----geeky me!, I used to have one and tried constructing the kit, it was a gundam gp03 1/144 model if i recall correctly. I gave it to friend after I was finish constructing it. Anyways, anime fever is up and fueling the child within me.

Im Not that Evil...goshdarnit!

You Are 36% Evil

A bit of evil lurks in your heart, but you hide it well. In some ways, you are the most dangerous kind of evil.

How Evil Are You?

I'm back...I think!?

I'm back. Its been awhile since I've updated this blog. I'm now part of the got hitched crowd and it has been 9 days since. Everything was 50% according to plan thanx to our  dumb coordinator who acted like he knew what he's doing, fooled us.geez. Well, of all the wedding stories and advices I've heard from recently, it all went out as expected and terrible in some way or form. But atleast its finally over and done with. The important thing is now I'm a married dude and as everyone will soon expect me to be responsible and steer the course of my life and all that sh@#. Another chapter closes and another is starting to get written and all that crap. hehehe. Part of me not updating this blog was because of this and when I got back last Tuesday I was dead tired and spaced out (!?) and work was waiting for me like a bad MF. Now I'm just taking a cruise ride at the back seat and looking at my, or shall I say both of our future outside the dashboard of a dark and fast world, kinda like looking at gotham city by gaslight...updates will be posted soon, no pics yet...nuff said...
