TIB: I won't be in yellow tomorrow

What do I know of People Power anyway? My parents haven't even made me yet in Feb 1986. If we do the numbers I won't even be in my mom's belly not until April. Yeah, yeah, freedom. The power to watch anything. Listen to anything. Write anything. Be anytime, anywhere I want. All the things I could ever want some countries could only hear and dream of having. All within my reach. But then, I'm not the only one who has it. That guy who composes ear piercing third rate songs have it too. That student who goes on partying all night instead of study have it too. That teacher who instead of learning lessons have more time updating their status in FB or finding the next password to a porn site have it too. That politician who brazenly campaigns himself every election day with no real purpose have it too. That actress who did nothing but force everyone in her life have it too. That unemployed mugger have it too. That drug addict have it too. All of us have th...

More, More, More at Jang Chung Dong Korean Restaurant

My youngest sister was frantic when she learned Malate is peppered with Korean restaurants. I've already took her twice to Mi Ga but haven't to anywhere yet. She saw Korean Village but told I've been there so instead  we came to this small restaurant overshadowed by the rest. I was confident with the pricing of Korean food so far so we got in to the first one that was almost empty with customers. Walking in we were forwarded to the table next to the framed pictures with signatures on the wall. None of us have thought of taking a photo of that wall but we were delighted to recognize MC Mong in one of them. We assumed they were previous guests giving the 'illusion' (since we weren't sure) that they came here. But still you won't stop raising your expectation a bit higher there. Side dishes of the day  We haven't tried Soju back in Mi Ga nor haven't in any other Korean restaurant but in spite of me not paying for it, youngest sister insisted ...

TME: Phil. International Guitar Festival (1.29.31)

Just be clear I am not one of those girls who suddenly learned guitars when it became a guy magnet. In fact I don't know how to play the guitar, let alone any instrument. So in any day, I would overlook this event in any means possible. But today and the rest of the days (cross fingers) it is not any day. I oblige myself to be (somewhat) immersed in a hobby I know someone likes. Meeting at MOA we chose to ride in those cute little vehicles that roam the CCP grounds. Unfortunately, it's our first mistake of the day, prompting us to be late on the first class. What we took was the wrong route, making us walk from worldtrade to CCP. Click for a closer view. No, seriously. Amando Derecho heads the beginner class for the day. Coming in late he was already discussing the 8th note, 16th note, the '!', groupings, accent, amongst others. Sure I didn't understand a thing. And none of the 'actual teach' when it was over. All I know he didn't need to tell me anymore...
