The highest level of fan girl-ing

Sorry for the poor video quality... and for my voice that sings along with Alexander! haha

Even if I am a fan of a celebrity, band, musician or any "awesome" human being, I never went to their mall tours even if it is just near my place. So, I have to say that this is one of the things I have done for the first time!

I've learned of the band, The Cab from my friend/ former office mate, Eena. She let us listen to Vegas Skies and Take my hand. And yes, I instantly fell in love with the them and their songs. For many nights, I've been listening to their songs, endlessly (haha). Some of them are on repeat for weeks until I try another track. Usually, it was Vegas skies for two weeks, Take my hand the next until, I had their two albums and discovered more heart-pinching and kilig songs. 

I've been a fan of other bands but I never thought of going to their tours or any activities.... until, The Cab. I was searching for events in September (for work) when I stumbled on The Cab Mall Tours in Ayala Malls. At that time, I just joked my friends that we should go  because the band have a gig at ATC -- (my favorite hangout place). Also, I was really brokenhearted because I can't watch THE MAROON 5 concert so I'm finding a way to ease the pain, LOL!

So there, Airiz agreed to go with me and Joanna joined too. The funny thing is my office mates were very supportive. We thought of a way on how will the band notice us. NOTICE!!! hahaha. We thought of a stuff toy wherein I can throw it at Alex Marshall (the keyboardist of my life, LOL). 

The stuff toy thing was scrapped in the plan, another plan is to buy the sash where words "be my future husband" is written. Then, I said.. Oh my gosh! I can't do that... hahaha!

Hours before the event, I saw my first ever dream catcher necklace. I decided that I will find a way to give it to Alex... GOSH! I was so excited. 

The thing is we don't have tickets to get in (because we are broke girls) -- haha! it is really part of the plan. We know that during mall tours, you can still watch on the side. BUT!!! Even if we do't have any pass, our SPOT was the best! We were on the side where Alex Marshall seats when he is playing the piano. (Yes, my heart is screaming and I am screaming and all the poise in me was forgotten! haha)

We always tried to get their attention even if we're just outside. The plan worked really well. Alex Marshall keeps looking and smiling in our direction until the best thing happened. He gave his guitar pick to us! He asked the sound production man to give it to us... AND HE POINTED AT US!!!!! aaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Then I remembered my dream catcher. We asked the same man to give it to Alex, and the second best thing happened, ALEX MARSHALL wore my dream catcher... and looked at me and smiled. I can't breathe... LOL

ALEX MARSHALL!!! I LOVE YOU! haha Thanks for this!

though, Airiz will be the one who'll keep it! :)

Woah! That was really an awesome experience though we just tortured ourselves as we watch the others hugged and kissed The Cab because they have passes for meet and greet. Anyway, those two best things were the awesomest! hahaha

Thanks for these photos tumblr and google! hahaha

Music 101: Snow Patrol - Signal Fire

So yes, I'm stuck here at home. So frustrated that I cannot watch the Snow Patrol concert. (This is their first time to perform in Manila ... :/) So now, I'm sharing one of my favorite song by Snow Patrol. Added plus, ost of Spiderman the movie. ♥

Sarah Kay & Phil Kaye "When Love Arrives"

I haven't watched spoken poetry for months now and then I stumbled on this video in a blog I was reading.

And just like that I searched Sarah Kay videos ... until I realized that I have watched her videos before but how come, I just found this now?

Anyway, this is awesome! :)

"....But love is not perfect and will sometimes forget. When you need to hear it most, “You are beautiful.” Do not forget this.

Love is not what you are expecting. Love is not what you can predict. Maybe love is in New York City already asleep. You are in California, Australia, wide awake. Maybe love is always in the wrong timezone.

Maybe love is not ready for you. Maybe you are not ready for love. Maybe love just isn’t the marrying type. ..."

"Maybe love is only there for a month. Maybe love is there for every firework. Every birthday party. Every hospital visit. Maybe love stays. Maybe love can’t. Maybe love shouldn’t.

Love arrives exactly when love is supposed to and love leaves exactly when love must.

When love arrives, say, “Welcome. Make yourself comfortable.” If love leaves, ask her to leave the door open behind her. Turn off the music. Listen to the quiet. Whisper, “Thank you for stopping by.”"

Music 101: Back to you

:)

in a sanctuary filled w/ emptiness & sorrow, a heart beats. just fine of being alone but longs to explore another world. your world. 

Inspire #16: YOLO

I've been neglecting my blog for weeks now. I've been very busy because of work and other things. Too tired to go online whenever I arrive home. Actually, even if today is SATURDAY -- I still have to go out because we have an event.

Alright, enough of this ... Why YOLO?

Source: http://dormify.tumblr.com

I am game for everything but there are moments that I still fear of doing the things I want to do. There are times that I chicken out because I'm shy, not in the mood or (yes, i'm saying it...) afraid. Maybe, that is the effect when you've been diffident as a kid - it will go back to you from time to time but you just need to fight and get over it.

The past weeks have been the busiest  days of my life but the best thing is -- I have lived...

I ...

connected, communicated and the shiz

I like meeting and talking to new people .... but I'm also afraid to be rejected. My work requires me to talk to different kinds of people and just two weeks ago, I conquered my fear.

pulled off a photo shoot (of course with my workmates)

That feeling when you had 10 mini heart attacks in just one day? I experienced that when I tried to ask  people of their availability and  they tell me that "they can't that day because blah blah blah..." I was like, oh! my gooosh. Kill me now. But, with the help of prayers they are all free that "certain" day. Thank you very much, Lord.

go out and be happy

No, I didn't get myself drunk and partied all night. Yes, I stayed up late and hangout with my friends until dawn (many times in a week.) 

Get the remaining free oil pastel even if I did not join the free art workshop (haha!) 

Listened and watch new indie bands (more indie, more fuun!)

joined contests & giveaways without expectations. 

and then this happened!

And today..

I'll be joining an activity that i never thought of doing.. Ever.. So a big good luck to me. Don't worry I'll make a blog post about it.

I'm so nervous but...

You (I) only live once! :)
