THE UP DHARMA DOWN EXPERIENCE |
This happened at AUG. 19, 2006 in line with the celebration of Davao's famous and renowned celebration THE KADAYAWAN. Two bands played before Up Dharma down. 1017 and The Chicha Rones. 1017 reminds me of Rocksteddy and Chicha Rones is well, sort of a pogi-rock band - AND they gladly admit it, too. Haha. Good for them, good for them. Both of the bands were really great. They really did a great job.
After the two bands, Up Dharma Down went down and dirty. And just as expected, the band did a superb job. Walang duda - they hypnotized us all. Everything was freaking awesome - the spellbinding uber beautiful voice or Armi Millare, the helluva bass riffs of Paul Yap (na talagang mahirap gayahin), electrifying guitars of Carlos Tanada (which were so fucking amazing. Sorry, i can't help but curse. Napakagaling kase nila.)And of course, can we ever forget the grandeur and the splendor of Ean Mayor's hard-to-beat drum pounding? It was so captivating to see them live. And I thought they won't play WE GIVE IN SOMETIMES, but they did. It was the last song they did. Just visualize the moment with these pictures. They speak for themselves. ENJOY. Really wanted to bite her ears.
But I chose not to. Haha.
Ate Karen, Franz and my brader goofing around.
Franz, Camilla, Ako & Mon2x's hands. Armi, Carlos and Ean (san si Paul?) this picture is too dark. tsk. i call this: the half-done photograph I LOVE THIS: me and Camilla with Ean and Armi. ME! trying to fit in.

Nagkahiusang Katilingban: KADAYAWAN BEYBE |
This has got to be one of the BEST weekends in my entire life. EVER. Ok, I’m too bedazzled, dumbfounded, flabbergasted to talk about it. I’m just so happy because after everything that has happened to me – After I humiliated myself in front of the most important people in the school, my friends, and some of the people that I value most (PLEASE, I beg of you, just let me spare the details), when I almost lost the trust of the people that believed in me for a very long time, after almost slipping on the rope that I was exasperatedly holding on to, and when I thought that my all hope is lost, miraculously I was saved from indignity. Astounding turn of events followed and everything went to place. JUST LIKE THAT. Yeah, JUST LIKE THAT.
I seriously want to explain this to all of you, dear readers, in the most understandable and in the most logical narrative of the events that occurred, but oh my lordy, the words are stuck in between my gums and tongue! I badly, badly want to express this as much as I can, BUT OH MY LORD. I can’t. I’m on scarcity with words.
Now that much has been said about this INTERESTING turn of events in my shit-hole life, and by a twist of fate, THE KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL is up and is being celebrated. Its time to parteeeee!!!! Panahon na ng rakenrol, beybe.
First of, I loosen all the stress ties inside my over-fatigued body thru the supernatural powers of ROCK CONCERTS.
LET’S START OF WITH SANDWICH.
This is the second time I watched Sandwich play live. We arrived in the venue (USP) at about 6pm and bought tickets, made our way inside the line and entered. Woah, the place was crowded when we got in. And hypothetically speaking, I would have to say that the whole of the crowd was covered with:
1/6 of the fans of JOLINA MAGDANGAL 1/6 of the fans of CHRISTIAN BAUTISTA 1/6 of which are the sponsors and all those VIP shitheads (haha. I AM CRUEL) 1/6 of which are those people who didn’t have anything better to do but spent 50 pesos of Uniliver products and 1/2 of which are rockers and SANDWICH fans, like me!
To sum them all up, it totals to one great helluva night. Well, at first it wasn't that great because I wasn't on the VIP seats (and if I was seated there, I'd call myself as a SHITHEAD to) plus Sandwich was the last set and I was to excited! Finally, Sandwich’s bus arrived and we wanted to approach them, we apprehended, but decided to go anyway.
We wanted to buy shirts from Sir Mike but sad to say, "Paubos na nga raw." Oh bollocks. But that was alright. I asked him to sign my 2 in 1 Sandwich Cd and Tugish Takish: Pedicab Cd. Sir Mike acknowledged my Cd’s and said that next time, he’d bring PEDICAB to play in Davao. Cool. I can't wait.
Next target: Sir Raims, Sir Diego, Ms. Maps. I asked them to ask my cd's and was even happier when Sir Raims agreed to sign my ERASERHEADS STICKERHAPPY! Oh yeah… oh yeahh.. Oh yeaaahhhhhh! I was so ashamed because I didn't realize that the person beside Sir Raims was DAN GIL of CHILITEES! Oh my lord. I was so mortified because I forgot that he was INDEED Dan Gil of Chilittes. Oh shit. Oh Shit.
As Sir Raims, Sir Diego and Ms. Maps were signing all my CD's, Sir Raims and Sir Dan were talking about something, (I think that was about my CD's, I think they were surprised that I had SO much Cd’s *this is just a guess you know* because honestly, I cannot decipher what they were talking about.) And then, Sir Dan Gil unzipped his bag, got something and spoke….
"Oh eto, sayo nah." I’m not so sure what the exact words were said, but, who gives a shit? HE GAVE ME A…. A…. GUESS WHAT?
CHILLITEES EXTRA RICE ALBUM.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH YEEEAAAAHHH.
And Sandwich hasn't even started playing yet. Oh, do I love this night or what?
Save for the security guards who dragged us out of the bleachers where the band was staying. And so we left, and sat on the ground and waited for Jolina Magdangal to finish her set.
And after her set…. Sandwich begins to fix their instruments. AND THERE WAS NO WAY I WILL WATCH THE SHOW with some stinking barrier blocking my way. So what did we do? We sneaked and sat on the VIP seats near the right side of the stage. Dun, na… RAKENROL HANGGANG UMAGA. Sir Mong wasn't there. Too bad. Sir Dan took over him with his magical vintage synthesizers - which still was equally hot.
And another fulfilling deed for me, because I was starting to get pissed with the security guards, them always blocking our way, I decided to play with them a little. When Sandwich sang 2 TRICK PONY (I love this song) I danced in front of the security guard and I was pretending to be oblivious and as much as possible trying to appear so sabog so that they'll get sick of me dancing in front of them. And once again, it turned out to be a success. Oh yeah. HAHAHAHA. I love this night.
After the show, (which was obviously bitin) we rushed to the bleachers to get a picture of them, with us, and sad to say, they were escorted to the building (that I don't know what was called). We waited. And with a quirk Sir Mike went out and I asked him if we could get a picture. He answered yes and he'll look for his missing bag first. Ang bait talaga. Even he lost his bag; he still managed to take a picture with us. A million thanks to you and I hope you found your bag already.
So we left the venue after taking a picture with him with the biggest smile I had in my face. The biggest.

VIVA EL GUGMA. Yawa ka. |
The truth is, I really don't like raving about love, about what's not and what's sizzling hot about my love life the same goes as reading about *the topic who must not be named* on other blogs (but I'm not telling you to stop writing about this alleged "LOVE" as you may call it. Ignore me, really). BUT I cannot help it. There's really this big hubbub inside my mind, and I really have to shout it out to the world (at least not to the world but to the ONLINE world, and to the people who gives a shit about my blog) about this so-called love. So I leave the decision to you. If you decide to desert this blog of mine, well, at least I'll know why you won't dwell and read (for a very obvious reason that maybe, you don't like reading *the topic who must not be named* as well). Maybe we have the same circumstances – Phooey love. But if you can still hold it, well then read on and I bid you good luck.
It all starts with this one guy. Shit, it ALWAYS starts with one guy. Why does it always start with one guy? Why, in all circumstances, does it include the opposite sex?
Actually, this guy – is the exact opposite of the "ideal" guy that I would imagine to exist. He's picky, he's annoying, and he doesn't seem to care about what he says (even when what he says can really prick you in the eye.). His ego is as fragile as a one-ply tissue paper. He has this big annoying voice and when he starts picking on someone, he really picks hard. Hard core, man. Seriously. And with everything that was said above, who would want to be with this guy? YES, I may sound a little cruel (at sa lahat ng mga nakakakilala, o nakahahalata o may hinala na, paalala, WALANG PANGALAN ang nabanggit). But its partly true.
Everything changed with one simple conversation. I thought to myself, "Hey, this guy isn't really all that. May soft side pala ang gago." Then, as the movies would predictably go, the first conversation was followed by another conversation and followed by another, then another, and another, and well, you know the drill.
Undesirably, I fell for the wrong guy at a very wrong time. How pathetic. But there isn't really anything I can't do. The same as what they usually say, "WHEN THE HEART DICTATES, THE HEAD FALLS TO SILENCE." I really can't say that I love him already, but yeah, he's stuck in my head and I can’t seem to let him out of my sight. Plus, he’s at the same school, so practically the heavens are all right with this one. But I can’t still get over the fact that he – the one I used to resent so much – has complete control over me.
If you would disregard the part of the story where Eedom realizes that he has feelings for this guy, you might probably say that yes, we are friends. The amity was never an issue between the two of us. We hang out, because we are in the studying at the same school and share a lot of common interests. What hurts me so is that some people REALLY DO CHANGE, and when they change, they change not for the better but for worse. The big question mark on my face was never erased. I still couldn't get why he has changed. He seemingly ignores me and passes by me like the alliance wasn't formed at all. Its not like I'm demanding some attention from him or whatnot a friend must do to his friends, but the thought that he’s suddenly giving me the cold shoulder – whats up with that? So me and my girlfriends came up with the assumption that boys are such dumbasses (Nah, that was wholly me). Why do boys tend to ignore the past? I’m not generalizing everything here, alright. I speak for myself. Sayang kase ang pinagsamahan eh, kung biglaan lang na mawala. Yun ang punto ko, napakasayang eh.
So to sum up everything, his whole love-shit is making me sick. I must say, and quote, THAT I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. But as ironic as it may seem, I still tend to smile whenever he is around. I don't know why, but the "giddy-mushy" feeling is all over me each time he's around. *YUCK*. Haha. I'm actually quite confusing you ano? Infatuation, love or puppy love, whatever this is, this has got to stop for the reason that I'm already acting like a dim-witted person. Nevertheless, this can go on and on because for the reason that it makes me happy.
VIVA EL GUGMA. Yawa ka. |
