getting wet
*photo courtesy of my officemate (ram) during lunch at our pantry :D

monday pa lang yata maulan na. hanggang ngayon, maulan pa rin. yesterday, classes were suspended. tapos last night malacañang declared na walang pasok ngayon in all levels. hay. sana student pa rin ako. hehe.

yesterday, tamad na tamad akong pumasok, ang lakas kasi ng ulan, ang sarap pa matulog. hehehe. pero kailangan eh. papasakay pa lang ako ng jeep, basa na yung pants ko. kasi malakas na yung ulan, may hangin pang kasama. san ka pa?! buti na lang early dismissal kami kahapon. 5:30 ang usual na uwian pero mga 5pm pwede na umuwi. sana nagpa late na lang ako! hmp!

kanina, late ako. 8:45:00 nung mag time-in ako. sana early dismissal uli kami. hehehe.

chansons du champion
The Philippine Madrigal Singers
Winner, Florilege Vocal De Tours 2006



*photos taken after the concert at the ccp main theater lobby

i watched the homecoming concert of the philippine madrigal singers (madz) last tuesday night with fellow acm members. considering it was a tuesday, i didn't expect that the ccp main theater will be full. iba talaga ang madz. hanggang balcony 2 puno. iba kasi ang tunog ng choirs after tour. mas kapit yung tunog. syempre, concerts almost everyday tapos kayo-kayo pa yung magkasama for several weeks, ewan ko lang kung hindi pa kumapit yung tunog. hehe.

they chose the date july 11 because it is ma'am oa's birthday, the founder of the madz. they also launched their fifth album entitled 'acclamation'. the tracks in the cd are mostly religous and inspirational songs. i got my copy about a month ago.

the concert repertoire includes songs they sang during the competition, songs from their new cd and different folk songs from the countries they visited. i love the song 'comme d'habitude' (as always). grabe, i like their rendition. pati yung soloist, ang galing. excited na tuloy ako sa next concert nila - madzitawanan on october 1. hehe.

korean wave 2
let's 'review' my favorite korean movies. thanks to 3 glasses of iced tea, it kept me awake this afternoon. :p

a moment to remember - this movie made me cry bucket of tears. hehe. hindi ako iyakin pero iyak ako ng iyak while watching the movie. it's a love story about a contruction worker turned architect and his wife who was diagnosed with alzheimer's disease at an early age of 27. great cinematography and good actors.

windstruck - the first korean movie i saw. it also made me cry. if you want to watch 'my sassy girl' you have to see this film first.

il mare - before 'the lakehouse' and 'moments of love' may 'il mare' na. great cinematography. i can say the sea is better than the lake. hehehe.

the classic - another beautiful korean movie. it has a different twist compared to other love stories.

3-iron - at first i didn't know the title of the movie because there are no english translation on the dvd cover. it is a 'silent movie' because the 3 actors have no dialogues until the end of the movie. their emotions and facial expressions are very powerful.

- a moment to remember
- windstruck
- my little bride
- il mare
- the classic

may problem ba?
...may problem ba?

these are the exact words my friend asked. after reading that phrase, i started to cry. the sadness, confusion that kept me awake till dawn, i now am free to release it. kaso nga lang i'm here in the office. i ran to the restroom and cried. when i came back, i began to open my problems to my friend. i now feel better but still, i'm not ok. but i'm trying...

welcome to jeromz beta!
another attempt to create a blog! why beta version? i will just try if i can really blog. :D

since i'm not really good in english, i'll write both in english and tagalog. baka hindi nyo maintindihan yung english ko kasi eh. hehehe. i'm more comfortable in expressing myself in tagalog.

i still don't know how to edit this blog. maybe i'll ask the help of my friends who are "expert bloggers".
