Jason Mraz - The Good Vibes Tour (05.08.2019 MOA Arena)

-




It's just a few days shy when it's exactly 7 years since Mr A-Z has graced our shores but based on the evening we had last night, the man still got it!

Like the last time, do not expect anything flashy on his performances. There are no tricks up his sleeve, no surprise games, just pure night of fun and music. You could tell by the way he croons the audience that he really loves what he do. He had just one quick pause to catch his breath and off he went singing one hit after the other. The setlist I was following was almost perfect if only for one or two songs I didn't knew he would do. One was the duet with our local talent Renee (who was said to be also performing on the Singapore leg) which I have yet to find. They did Lucky too, and IIRC Jason already did last 2013 with another local singer as well.

Renee was, and I've been vocal about this, sings in an Indie Girl style I abhor to the core. But to her benefit, her voice is clean, you couldn't hear any hesitation and her intonation was spot on. Others won't mind but I did quite a lot especially when she breathes more than usual. But then what do you do, it's the in style nowadays. I'm just glad it's just two songs.



Back to Jason, the songs are a myriad of old and new but as I've noticed mostly old happy ones. What the stage lack in pizazz, Jason and Raining Jane made up through dancing and running around the stage. It's reciprocated by the crowd who is unsurprisingly alive (it's a work day give us Titos and Titas a break) in all of his performances even up to the last song. His voice all these years shows no signs of weakening. He could still hit the notes he set a long time ago and his rapping parts still crystal clear.



There is one advantage on my really high seat is that the only obstruction I have is the railing at our balcony (upper A). No Ipads, no non stop dancing, no need to stand up. And the acoustics are so good that even up top I got really decent audio. What I hate though is that I haven't been this far up since probably the first Script concert and that was what 5 shows ago, so I truly dislike not being able to look at their faces at a decent distance. AND MY PHOTOS ARE HORRIBLE TOO! HOPEFULLY next time I could coax my mates into getting the much more expensive ones. I mean, after all this time Jason Mraz's concerts are still really good. Why not right?

T&J Weds: Getting a License at the Mandaluyong City Hall during the Pandemic (2021)

-
Image
As of writing, our application for a license is now on the way. We were able to do everything in one day with not much hassle but it took some hours to finish since we started the process. It's a bit different than before but man, I love that we didn't have to take a leave on another day (other than getting the license obviously).  Requirements 1. CENOMAR -PSA copy, 210 PHP at SM Business Center; will take almost 2 weeks 2. Birth Certificate - PS copy, 155 PHP at SM Business Center; will take a week 3. Government IDs with Mandaluyong address. Old bills, minimum 6 months prior can be submitted as well in lieu. I prepared 3 bills for this, Meralco, Globe and Assoc Dues and the processor only got the Meralco one (photocopy). I don't have IDs with Mandaluyong address but bothered to photocopy my other government IDs bearing our Cavite address and my condo's IDs but those weren't accepted.  4. Application Form - submitted and filled out in triplicate. 5. CEDULA - Can be...

TME: Getting your NBI Clearance Easy

-
Image
UPDATE (10/25/2013) As I've visited their site , GCASH won't be a form of payment for them from now on. You may now choose to leave this link as it is now obsolete as of this writing. I may try to write the different mode of payment in the near future. UPDATE(13/01/2014) Here's the new, updated and lazier version  < this is clickable just so you know. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I will not explain the full details, but me and my office mates regularly need an NBI Clearance. It's one of my most hated moments because it is so time consuming. Yes the process is as fast as they can make it, but you only need to see the extremely long queue to give up getting one during lunch break. So, when one of our office mates found a fast track option a whole lot of us instantly grabbed the chance. There are about 3 steps in getting an NBI clearance (payment, encoding, picture taking) and all involves different sets of queues and wh...

SNAP: BPI Express Credit Card: Ridiculously fast.

-
Image
I did say before how I try my best to stay credit card free except for my trusty eprepaid card . What ended that promise and what bothers me now is how I got one in the first place. This is seriously weird, and fast at the same time... and I haven't even applied to them!! Tuesday. Received a call from BPI That I am eligible for a card. The only thing they ever asked was where I was working. After that I was told that they'd be sending my card anytime soon. Friday. Text from BPI saying my card was approved. What? Saturday. Noon. I received my card (LBC) with a credit limit far from the 10k limit I was prepared for. If I want something more than that I will pay in cash but never in credit.  Why do they have to give me this tempting limit at all?! Why?! So what just happened anyway? Monday-Tuesday I was in contact with a Citibank person after a referral of an officemate. Thursday they called the house and so far not anything from them yet. The mysterious t...
