2006!

Fri, 13 Jan 2006 05:59:02 GMT

Hey people, its been a while since I last posted an entry here (I'm so lazy to write)... So, here at school, nothing to do (my class just ended)..

Well, my last post was about July of last year. So I'll just go through what happened during the last part of my 2005. Nothing much really, but it was fun.

July - This would probably be the most memorable month of my 2005 (just like Pendragon!).. I was part of a digital film and had a chance of going to Mindanao (which is so beautiful by the way, just look at my previous post I have pics there). Got the chance of working with talented and wonderful people. I also had the chance to meet the folks there, who happens to be warm and friendly. The movie is about street kids, and we met the kids and the real people we portray... It's just so wartwarming to see that people like Ken really do exist. Those kids are special.. Anyway, if you want to see some of the "behind the scenes pictures," visit my multiply account.. www.jay25.multiply.com <Just click on the link> (add me also in your network if you happen to have a multiply account too..

August - This month would be a total bum month for me.. I did'nt enroll for the first term, so I have nothing to do. Basically, I just watch TV, Movies, play computer games, and hang out sometimes with sublime_sorut and others. This month, our Director (Steve Cadd) got married with my co-actor (Mayen Bustamante), which happened to be my first ever acting coach. heheh. Congratulations! hmmm.. who's gonna be next? ... ...

I actually missed school! (well, for at least for that month)..hehe. Oh, and I watch UAAP games to at the Araneta which is such a bummer.. we lost to FEU!! There's still next year.. (well, is there?).. They're still talking about that eligibility issue in Dlsu..

September - School's back for me. And then I hated school!.. hehe.. I got so used to bumming around, going to school is now such a drag.. I got a messy schedule! Imagine, I have a 6-8pm class on a friday night! Plus, only one of those subjects, is not Math related! And, these are now major subjects! They are insanely hard man!

October - November - These two months is so busy for me. I was part of "St. Louis Loves Dem Filipinos.. The Musical." It's actually my first professional musical production (which i hope will be followed.. hehe..). It's a Dulaang UP production. I met new friends.. We go out almost everyday! It's a blast too..

December - is so much fun, though exam week is in it and I flunk two subjects!! (waahh!) well, besides that, it's good. We perormed for Trumpets' Outreach too.

So there you go,some of the highlights of my year 2005. In goes 2006!

Here are some (those I can remember) of my Favorite Movies for 2005... Closer, Finding Neverland, a very long engagement, Batman Begins, Star Wars3, Charlie and the Choco Factory (way to go Tim Burton!), Mr and Mrs Smith, Hitch-hikers guide.. and many more.. hehe (I love movies)..

and oh, I love Narnia!!

It's now third term in Dlsu, I have to study! hehe.. So far, so good..

mindanao hits!

Mon, 11 Jul 2005 05:10:53 GMT

hello people! long time since i've written something here..

so i'm here in mindanao with chevy and red.. we're doing this movie about street kids.. we're shooting it in english and in filipino.. so double effort! haha!.. anyway, i haven't start shooting yet, tomorrow will be the first day. all we did this week is eat sleep and watch TV! boring! haha!! But we did get to see some of the place here.. we went to Tinago falls....

That's Tinago falls... sarap maligo !! haha.. You have to go down a 350+ step stairs to go there.. We had so much fun. Too bad red wasn't able to come with us because he had a shoot that day.. The water's 87feet deep, so it's compulsary to use a life jacket. Alex (Compton), David, Chevy, JC (Jaime's brother) and I would climb the rocks, then we dove into the water! Fun!! After all the swimming, getting up the stairs was so tiring! 350+ steps!!! We ended up sleeping in the car going home...

Yesterday, we went to Iligan to shop. It was so hot! here in Mindanao. Then we watch Strings in Tita Luna's DVD player... its a movie, ony the actors are string puppets.. it was so good that you wont mind the strings.. Actually, the strings are their "life" - if you cut it out, they will be dead.. the writing's good.

the other night we were able to see iligan's night life! together with some friends we met here in Iligan (tour guide namin sila)..haha..

Today, we're here at SM Cagayan de Oro..This will be our last free time, (i think).. so okay.. see you in august.. Hope us luck!

pagod...

Thought I'm going to hae some sleep finally. But shit talag... Di ako makatulog.. Feeling ko may insomnia ako.. It's now about eight in the morning. I think I slept for about thirty minutes lang... gusto ko pa matulog.. after nito.. hehe

Summer's over...

Thu, 09 Jun 2005 12:04:41 GMT

aawww...

The best summer I ever had.. Thanks to the summerstock peepz.. Man, I thought last year was the best.. So anyhoo, I'm gonna miss everyon of you...

I have'nt posted anything for the last three weeks na yata (tinatamad kasi ako mag update eh.. hehehe, so here I'll try to recap.. Classes started may 23rd.. that week, rehearsals and school... pagod... Then sunday, we were asked to perform at th Trumpet's Tribute.. cool.. Galing talaga Pendragon people.. hehe.. We sang 'In every vision,' 'Seasons of love,' and 'Make it happen.' Cool..hehe

After that... Monday, I learned from Jaime that I got in this movie which I auditioned for.. Like, Whoaa!! I've got class!! (The movie's gonna be shot at Mindanao the whole moth of July)... So I decided to file for a leave of absence.. Man, hassle.. So I pretty much will do nothing during June and August... (boring).. haha..

Wednesday, our first TDR at Megamall.. That day was tiring.. We started at aroung 230pm and ended at about 1130pm.. whew!! Nonetheless, it was fun..

Thursday, TDR again.. Less work, but still tiring.. (Tinatamad na ako mag type.. hehe)

Friday, The big day!! We block the lighting and we were making fun of ourselves.. We would speak the lines in tagalog then laugh our hearts out.. though we still manage to do the blocking.. haha!! The first show started 3pm.. GOOD SHOW guys!! Heard good reviews.. Even I was amazed on how well we did. I'm also amazed at the effects.. Wow! Then we did the 8pm show.. I think the 3pm show's better.. Anywhoo, we did break a leg!! (not literally though)..

Yan na nga lang muna.. tinatamad ako eh..

school starts tomorow!!

Sun, 22 May 2005 13:17:50 GMT

School will start tomorrow and I don't even know what time is my first class. Oh well.. It's just the first day anyway... Our brief summer break is over - you can thank our trimestral system for that... Hassle... But so far it's been fun..

Ey guys, watch our Trumpets' Summerstock show on June 3, 2005..

PENDRAGON... 3pm and 8pm.. tickets at P250.. SM Megamall Cinema 11..

Tagal ko na rin di nag update ah.. Last wednesday, me, mica, red, surot went to chevy's house.. We got a little drunk.. Red started smoking! haha.. He said "pa-puff." And then UBE moments.. UBE stands for - Ultimate Bonding Experience.. Just an expression we made.. ehehe.. Red's so drunk, kung ano-ano na sinasabi niya! haha!... We sat in the middle of the road for fun.. cool.. No cars passing.. We went home, but Red stayed there 'til morning..

Here's thing about secrets... You can't help but to tell.. haha.. We have this classmate that have a thing for Red.. And "stupid" (sorry for the ter.. hehe. peace!) her, she posted t in her blog.. (As if we would'nt find out).. Well, Chevy found out.. He told us, just the three of us first.. And eventually he told Red.. Then after a while, the whole class knows.. When somebody says "It's not my secret to tell.." - You'd know he would be close to telling.. hehe.. Secret's are meant to be known - I think.. If you would'nt want anybody to know, then you should keep it to yourself.. If you tell someone a secret, even if it's your best friend, i guess unconciously, you want everyone to know too.. Am I making sense?! Nalalaboan din ako.. hehe..

Thursday - Cyril's Birthday.. We went to his house.. I've met familiar faces.. It should have been a very fun night if only my phone had'nt been lost... Lesson learned: Don't give your phone to people who will be drunk.. haha..

Friday - After rehearsals, we went to Metro...

Staturday - The whole of Summerstock watched Amityville horror.. It's not scary for me.. I even slept somewhere in the middle. eheh.. It's fun to watch other people scream and get scared.. hehe.. After that we went to streetscape.. UBE moments again..haha.. And there were some flirting... who with whom? nudge.. nydge.. wink.. wink.. haha!!

Sunday - Auditions for footloose. I don't know if I will be cast.. Anyway, just try and try.. hehe..

Monday - We went to Metro with cyril, surot, andy and mica.. After that we went to Mica's house.. (No details) hehe.. nudge.. nudge.. wink.. wink..

Yesterday, we watched Red's show again, this time with most of summerstock, then Surot treated us at Crocodile bar.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUROT!! Then we had UBE moments again at Coffee bean and green tea.. We were there until about 2 in the morning..

So godluck tomorrow on the first day of class!! hehe.. I hope I could be D.L. this term..

seesh!

Wed, 04 May 2005 17:25:34 GMT

CATCH ME!!.. eheh

This year's summer is so stressful. I feel that I am more busy now than the schoolyear.. Oh, well... This summer's a new experience. I have friends again... hehe... Summerstock's fun and tiring!! Seesh!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I've got scolded during rehearsals today! (I was'nt looking at him, when he is giving instructions..) My fault. It's okay actually, but it's very embarrassing.. That's the first time he screamed like that in Summerstock.. And it was at me!! Well actually the two of us.. Thea and me. (Good thing he only screamed out her name -- though, he was looking at me).. Fucking Chuck Taylor's.. hehe (It was the reason we've got scolded.)..

After class, we decided to hang-out at Green Tomatoes.. We ate. Then we decided to head on to Starbucks as we usually do. We used the escalator, and for fun, we blocked the escalator at the end, so we would pile up, and we would end-up laughing.. So we thought.. When we blocked the end, and people started piling up, the escalator broke down!! The floor cracked, and the whole thing stopped.. In shock and fear that we will be apprehended by security guards of Shangri-la (and for a fact that we know that it would be expensive if they were to have us pay for the damages) we ran!!! We darted off in different direction, I, for one, ran all the way down until Starbucks. I don't even know where the other's went... After sometime, we eventually met at Starbucks. Mica's sandals broke.. After a few minutes, we decided not to talk about it anymore.. (anyway, no guard or administrator of shang sought after us).. hehe.. (In some points it's cool -- we can brag that we broke the long escalator at shang <haha>) We stayed there for about an hour, I guess..

One other embarrassing moment at Shang is when we were in front of Cravings (It's a restaurant) while waitng for MTG to finish.. We started playing a game of improvisation.. Surot had her stress ball that day.. Here's the improv we did (or they did):

MICA: (while holding the stress ball) Ey look at my stress ball, it's cute oh.

CHEVY: Oh really!!

SUROT: Freeze!

Surot got in front of Mica replacing Chevy....

SUROT: (to Mica) Why are you holding my brother's testicle!

We burst into laughter. and then we realized that Surot said that too loud that the people at Cravings (who happens to be eating) heard... (Talking about manners!! hahahah)

I turned to look at the people in Cravings.... I saw the look on their faces... They were shocked and actually looking at their food as if to check if it's testicles.. hahaha!!! -priceless..

In shame, we ran.. haha.. And we laugh our hearts out! ( talk about bad PR for trumpet's!) ;-)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The other day, I was at UST.. I used the elevator. There was an operator at the elevator.. When the doors closed, he played with a blue balloon.. How low can you get.. hehe.. ;-) He must be really bored.. I would never be an elevator operator!! Seesh!!

aaaahhh!!

this weekend is very, very frustrating!!

i have no voice.. i've got tonsilits!! fucking throat.. last thursday night, throat really, really hurts.. and so i can't even sleep. i think i have slept around 4am the next morning.. and when i woke up, friday, I GOT NO VOICE!!! even my speaking voice is cracking.. that is a disaster!! i've got music rehearsal at 6pm at shangri-la for summer stock.. so i went to shang with no voice.. music rehaearsals started, i can't sing!!! this is very frustrating... i have been singing for the past six years and now this!! i never lost my voice then.. so this is very, very annoying.. i have a hoarse speaking voice..

after rehearsals.. my friends from other class (MTG) and me decided to go to eastwood... there were so many of us.. the annoying part about it is the friends of BA being there uninvited.. (sorry BA).. i think most of mtg would agree that it should have been more about mtg.. hehe.. there were some uneasiness... and as leni told me - many people from jack's loft were looking at us beacause of BA's friends.. so leni, arash and me went oustide, we decided to eat at mcdonald's (talking about fiscal crisis!) hehe.. when we wnt back to jack's loft, they transferred to fazolli's (again)... most of mtg have gone home.. but to our dismay, BA's friend is still there... haha!! after some card games, talk, jokes (that leslie is trying to understanD!! hahaha), and dino making fun of my hoarse voice, we decided to go home.. i hitched a ride with dale..it was about 2am in the morning.. i thought im better already, good night compared to thursday, nevertheless..

the worse part is i have to wake up at 530 am because i have to sing at wedding in alabang!! i still got no voice... i only sleptt for about 3 hours and then this, things could'nt get any worse.. i'm being paid for this performance and i did'nt gave out my best perfomance and it's frustrating.. after that, some of us decided to watch a movie at gateway mall in cubao.. we watched finding neverland (again- already watched it).. im outvoted, i wanted to watch interpreter or guess who.. i bought some medicines for my throat, it's still not better, then i forgot where i left it... fuck!! hehe.. i went home then slept.. it was the best night of the weekend.. i get to sleep without the stingy feel in my throat..

my throat is better today, sunday.. and so i thought.. the pain is gone but my voice is still missing!! hehe.. i think i got cough in replacement of tonsilitis.. we rehaersed today.. at first i thought it was ok.. then after a while, i can't sing again!!! fuck, fuck!! good thing for tomorrow, we will not have any music rehearsals, only blocking from sir jaime..

--------------------------------

SUMMER STOCK (update):

the show will be good!! watch out for little morgan (alex)... alex is very, very good, and she's only 16!!! though when i was 16 i'm good at singing too!! hehe (lifting my own chair here!! clap,clap,clap!!)hehe.. when she starts to sing everyone is at awe..

i got good classmates at summerstock.. too bad for me, i did'nt get any solo singing parts!! only a bit.. hehe.. anyway, the roles are given to actors who are been in theatre long enough.. i just started last year!!.. fair enough.. though i wish i was one of the major role.. myabe next year.. im a good singer!! (the chair is up the cieling now!! haha.. clap,clap,clap!)...

so watch our play.. june 3, SM megamall cinema10.. sublime_surot said megamall cinema 10 is bigger and more comfortable than music museum (that's where we staged HONK for our showcase last year).. there will be 2 shows.. one at 3pm, the other at 8pm.. though i wish that the shows at different dates.. watch me!!! (hehe)

------------------------------

that's all for now.. hope i can write here regularly.. tamad lng tlaga ako minsan.. ehehe..ok..

YES!!!

bored as hell right now..

this is what i hate about the holy week. no classes (that's a good thing!)... no malls open, no good show on tv, friends at bora or somewhere else. i get to stay home!! damn! i'd rather be at school.. hehe.. what's worst, my computer is not working right now.. im here at a computer shop near st luke's hospital.. i swear, i'll go to bora next year or anywhere, just not to be bummed at home..

day routine: sleep, watch tv, eat, sleep, watch, tv, eat....... sigh.. eheh

at least i got to read our book assignment for literature. the story's good.. "smaller and smaller circles" is the title by FH Batacan. good writer!! it's like CSI., philippine style.. hehe.. good story line.. i recommend it..

i also got to rest before my hell week next week, and final exams afterwards..

trumpets playshop once agin.. i still, can't believe we enrolled for summer stock, the advance class for theatre..it will be hard work i think.. hehe..the sked will be 3 hours a day five days a week!! sheesh!!

my life is boring as of now, so i don't have anything interesting to write on..

first time..

Thu, 17 Mar 2005 08:00:55 GMT

My very first entry...

wohoo, i have my own account! i've find it hard choosing a username since it will be permanent and you can only change it if you go for their paid account.. oh well, i have a username now..

im thinking, what should i write first..

i am here inside the library bored as hell.. did not attend first class again, as usual.. hehe.. (it's god damn early!! [8am]) - i'm a lazy dude!! eheh.. anyway, got here at school about 930 but my next class is'nt until 420.. there's so many people here in cybernook now beacuse it's online enrollment.. good thing, i have already enrolled yesterday..

let's talk about something..

american idol... mario vasquez stepped down from the running of being the next idol.. no one knows why? i think maybe its a strategy... think about it.. it made him the talk of the town..some kind of publicity? it could also save him the humiliation of losing, although he has a high advantage over the other idols because he's the darling of the judges.. it's simply saying that's it's better to resign than to be fired.. hehe.. or maybe, he's got something he's hiding that he's afraid the people would know! is there? hehe.. anyways, it's his decision.. i think it didnt lose him much though.. he's good! i will not be surprised to learn that he has already a contract waiting after he drop out of idol..

new topic..

what the hell is wrong with star awards? (was that the name of the awards night held in cubao?).. i was already ready to sleep while the news was on tv.. (i usually sleep with the tv on).. when i heard that sandara park won "best new actress"!!!! what the f*#K is that!! are they blind!!! i did'nt quite know whether im amused or annoyed.. no wonder pinoy movies are bad as hell!!

-------------------------------------------------------

i like the weather today, it's cloudy but not raining.. i love march, aside from the fact theat it's my bday month, summer is approaching!! wohoo!!.. summer.. break from school.. though we only have about one and a half month for vacation.. fucking trisem..

trumpets again, hope this year's batch is as good as last year or at least as fun.. i miss mte.. our class this year is mtg.. teacher roy daw ung teacher..

my id was damaged yesterday and its not working anymore.. i went to the registrar's office and they said i needed to replace it!! DLSU id is expensive!!! imagine P533 for an id!! dahil daw sa chip na nsa loob.. weh!

-------------------------------------------------------

quoute of the day for me--

"I never let schooling interfere with my education"

-Mark Twain..

cool.. hehe.. prang quoute naman ni jaizee - "nakakasira sa pagbabarkada ang pag-aaral!" haha

cge, yan na muna.. wla naman yta babasa nito eh..

i don't know how to change the settings of the journal..
