Grrr. A Eulogy for Headware.

Mood: Mourning
Music: Hidden in Plain View - Garden Statement

Boo-uhms. I lost my favorite cap last Thursday. I'v had that brown DC shoes cap since junior year highschool... its been everywhere with me and has lots of memories attached to it... it was even signed by two members of steven speaks (the night we got drunk with them) and most of the and1 team. (who i bumped into arriving at the airport while picking up my grandmother) *sighs* M says she likes it when I don't wear a cap, and since my other favorite cap, my pink and white "lick me" trucker, was put out of commission by the dog, I guess I'm gonna be capless a lot more often. But me sad :( Cap shopping it is. R.I.P. cap-o.

So...

Mood: Confused
Music: Me and the Ocean - Broken Bottles

I GOT MY GNX FOR MY BDAY! I AM HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY MAN! Well. Kinda. In other, however, related, news, the USB driver for it refuses to install on my laptop. This a huge frustration as I want to record and use the library software. NOW NOW NOW. I'm thinking I'll just back my stuff up and reformat my laptop once and for all.

In other other news, FMW is recording more stuff tomorrow at Alis place. I think the plan is to do a full band version of "Blood in the Water" since Alec wants to use it as the end credits for his movie. Plus we gotta record some ambient "horror tracks" for the rest of the soundtrack. Should be fun. The Jolina vid I'm in came out kanina. Hay. Running out of things to say. Can't run forever. Expect more soon.

Me. (Or who I think I might be)

I'm Nineteen!

Mood:Cool beans.
Music: Armor For Sleep - The Way Out Is Broken

Cool. 19 on the 19th. I hate getting older though. But I like it at the same time. Haynako. Whatever. Me and M are the same age now. Yay! Hopefully I get something cool this year. Everyone likes getting cool stuff, duh. But hey, I'll be happy just getting greeted by people I care about - that's more than most people get.

In other news, French Maid Weaponry is making some serious progress as of late. We jammed on Monday and hammered out the drum part of "Blood in the Water," A song I'm very quickly falling in love with and on Tuesday we recorded more of the demo work on "Hold Your Breath." I is happy. I got news that I got a new project this week which will be shot next weekend in Subic sometime for a wall mural in a fastfood restaurant. Interesting... I know which joint, but you guys just wait and find out nalang. Hehehe.

Oh! M submitted something for this graphic design contest in school, and hers qualified for the interescholastic competition, so she has to be in Podium on Saturday for the judging or whatever. I'm so proud of my baby, she's briliiant. (Even if she can't seem to see it) Wow.. I'm really liking this new armor for sleep cut they recorded a demo of on the road, they're showing a lot of maturity without losing their old sound.

This year of my life shall be dedicated to my music, the people I care about, and my constant search for the ingredients to making myself and my life better, as well as those around me. And of course, chasing my dreams like a dumb mutt running in circles after his tail (the only difference I'd like to think I'd eventually "reach my tail" or at least some part of it) Yeah.

Cheers.

Mood: Just Here. Yeah. ^^

What?! Normally, I don't.. but well. I was bored-ish? And. Wala Lang, Random. Shut Up!

Ten Top Trivia Tips about Jay!

  1. In the Great Seal of the United States the eagle grasps 13 arrows and jay.
  2. Dolphins sleep at night just below the surface of jay, and frequently rise to the surface for air!
  3. People used to believe that dressing their male children as jay would protect them from evil spirits.
  4. Reindeer like to eat jay.
  5. If the Sun were the size of a beach ball then Jupiter would be the size of a golf ball and jay would be as small as a pea.
  6. By tradition, a girl standing under jay cannot refuse to be kissed by anyone who claims the privilege!
  7. Jay can be very poisonous if injected intravenously!
  8. South Australia was the first place to allow jay to stand for parliament.
  9. Without its lining of jay, your stomach would digest itself.
  10. Jay is the only one of the original Seven Wonders of the World that still survives!
I am interested in - do tell me about
Interestingly enough, many of these things are true. As much as I enjoy reindeer, I tend to avoid them, especially Rudolph. Ang sungit nga, seryoso. The flattery of #10 is really rather too much though. Haynako. I mean come on, diba there are other surviving ones, not just me? Dahahaha. Joke!

WISHLIST!

Mood: Sleepy
Music: Alexisonfire - Charlie Sheen vs. Henry Rollins

Well. It's my birthday on Thursday. Not that it matters all that much, birthdays just make me feel older and less accomplished. But, for those of you who want to make my life a ball of uncontrollable joy, the wishlist is still the same, just highly condensed. There are only four items really - you can look at the Christmas wishlist if REALLY want to, but these are the things i'd really rather prefer. So without further ado (in order of importance):


1. Digitech GNX 3000

2. Fender Jaguar HH

3. Tech 21 Sansamp GT-2
4. CASH!!!

You can get the Sansamp at Audiophile, and the Jaguar and GNX they don't sell here, but the cheapest prices in the world for musical equipment you will find at Musician's Friend. Hmm. That's that. off to play more guitar.

A New Year.

Mood: Bagong Gising Putanginashyet
Music: Saosin - Translating the Name

So its a new year... woop dee doo(m?), yihee yay and all that other confetti sprinkled firecracker rainbow gushing happiness stuff. Right. As cliche as it seems to be in todays pop culture, i think the Deathcab song is very apt - "So this is the new year, and I don't feel any different." Damn right I don't feel any different. At least, not any more different than I would feel today because today is a different day than yesterday. Oh well. I feel like I'm getting older though. New years have always been synonymous with such things seeing as my birthday is the 3rd week of January every year. (Random anecdote: I fucking hate people that exploit us people who have their birthdays close to the holiday season by "double dutying" and giving us one gift for both occaissions. Cheap motherfuckers... anyways...)

I realized this morning that I've been shaving with the same set of four razor blades for a little too long now... I keep interchanging them thinking one is sharper than the last dull cocksucker than cut my face up, only to rediscover the joys of shaving with dull razors yet again (though dull mach3 blades are not nearly as dull as other dull razors, I would imagine, but still dull enough to produce a sub-par shave and above-par nicks). The point of that rant is... uhm. Reminder to self. Buy new razor blades. I hate how they never last as long as you want them to... In my experience, you buy a new pack of razors, and you pop a new one on and its like heaven shaving the first few times. Real sharp - close shave, all that jazz, but after like 5 times, it feels dull as fuck and you switch to the next. And the damn things are SO not cheap. *sighs*

I am now unemployed. Yay. The project that gave me the job I had ended with 2005. Time to go a job-hunting. Perhaps maybe just concentrate on school and my music more. I wish. But money. Money money money (or so much lack there-of) *sighs*

I'm off.
