TV shopping gone wrong...

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay....

UP Student's Prayer

Now I lay me down to study
I pray the Lord I don't go nutty.
And if I fail to learn this junk,
I pray the Lord I do not flunk.
And if I die, don't bury me at all,
Just lay my bones on the study hall.
Pile my books upon my chest,
And tell my profs I did my best.
So now I lay me down to rest,
And pray I pass tomorrow's test.
And if I die before I wake,
That's one less test I have to take.
Amen.


This prayer made me cheer up and saved my ar** so many times back then. God, I never thought I'd miss UP days. Back then I was thinking I missed highschool days. Now, i miss UP days and highschool days. How time flies. When I return home for vacation, I'll definitely go back to Diliman and eat in all the places there. I'd probably lie down in sunken garden and reminisce.

Slumdug Celebration

As I remember the plot of Slumdog Millionaire, I wonder if some of my fellow Pinoys felt the same way as the contestant while watching the 6/49 Lotto draw. To the two people who won, congratulations. Use the money well. Ingat sa nanghihingi ng balato.

Van Halen's Invincible Guitars


This guitar is promoted to be a toughie just like Eddie. Its called the EVH Wolfgang, named after his son and current bassist of Van Halen. With some parts made from materials used to make medical equipments, this guitar promises to endure Eddie's lick tortures. This baby costs about $3000. Doesn't look anything special but heck I'd want one. lol.

Still, Eddie breaking volume and tone knobs looks cooler. Let's face it, destroying a guitar in a performance without banging it on the floor is ownage!

Classic Rock And Roll of Honour Awards


This is a shout out to everyone, all Pinoys or non-Pinoys, do vote for Journey's album "Revelation" as the classic rock album of the year.

Haven't really been a fan of Journey because it wasn't in my era but I like some of their songs. Their songs served me in those senti nights during my highschool days. Having Arnel Pineda as the new lead vocalist brought a new sort of atmosphere for the band. It made the band somehow recognizable to younger generations like me. Contrary to what some people say, his voice is not exactly similar to Steve Perry. There's something more youthful and appealing to younger generations. I guess that's why their album became a platinum hit. I gotta get a hold of that album. If I can find it here in Korea.

Good luck Arnel! Hope you don't change your humble personality. And a piece of advice. Try not to guest in corny Pinoy variety shows where various artists sing with you. It kinda ruins your coolness. Don't became a "pinoy pop" artist. Cheers.
