Bamboo- the coverboy


I've been waiting for the PULP Magazine for the month of January! This is my first Pulp and I bought this because of a single reason. That Bamboo is on the cover and the band was being featured on it! As what the magazine said, Bamboo was indeed the hottest band in the country last year and is now on their way to conquer Asia with their repackaged album, Light. Peace. Love.

I was lucky enough to arrive on time because there were only three copies left on the shelf. Well, I know I was lucky because even though Kessen had the chance to ask for reservations for the magazine, she wasn't phoned by the store which simply means they forgot that she asked for it! Thank God! there were three left or else they'll be sorry!

Though there were not much of write-ups about the band, you will simply swoon by the fact that there were great photos that went along with it! The quartet's photos on the magazine makes every believer go wild! My friends and I were even too careful not to ruin it!

Dinagyang 2007

Whew! Dinagyang 2007 is over! I'm definitely disappointed that aside from the fact that I my favorite tribe didn't join the Ati-ati contest, Bamboo wasn't here during the Dinagyang! Just like everybody else, I am used to the idea that the band would perform every Dinagyang but sad to say, not this year! Quite busy with their Asian tour, I guess...

Just hoping they could come and perform here in Iloilo just like the old times.. Dinagyang isn't complete without them here! Its somehow like BAMBOO completes my DINAGYANG!

BAMBOO during Dinagyang 2006

A YEAR AGO...

Today's the 26th of January and two days from now it's Dinagyang. I don't really feel good counting down the days. Aside from the fact that the tribe representing my Alma Mater isn't joining, the exact date of the
festival celebration represents one heck of good memories!

Around 7:00 PM. Stayed at SM City and though we're not interested, we watched celebs at the carpark, bought a pair of earrings, and eat! We're just killing the time (kumbaga).

Around 8:30 PM. Maribeth and I left SM City to Sarabia!
And though its still early, the venue was half full (i guess)... We saw some schoolmates of ours in front and because we're older, we went in front with their help! At Sarabia, We saw Ric, Gamz, Cianle and some of his classmates.

Around 9 PM. Some of local bands performed as Front Acts! Aside from Kwatro Kantos, I can't remember the others...

11:30 PM. Everyone was really irritated! They've been shouting Globe instead of Smart and the emcee was likewise irritated! ahahahah... Moments later, Maribeth thought it was Bamboo she saw backstage! Sad to say It wasn't Bamboo, it was Nathan! mmm.. It wasn't that bad I guess. Nathan is still Nathan- THE bassist!

Whew! the long wait was over. Vic went to the stage to try his drums and that was it! Evervbody went hysterical! Shit! Shit! Shit! I just can't explain the feeling- God! it was overwhelming!

And that was it! I was taken to some place when the Band started their first song! The only thing I hate at that time was to see my neighbor flirting with Bamboo! She even didn't gave way for Bamboo to come near us! FLIRT!!! I hate her! If only I co
uld tell her husband! Geez! she just gave birth!!! Kapal!!!

Don't worry guys... I know. I know and I admit I'm JEALOUS! If you were on my shoes you'll understand why... on the other hand, I can't take it against her. If I were in here shoes I would also be flirting on my own way! LOL... But definitely I would give for Bamboo to come ne
ar his fans unlike her! duh!

Bamboo sang 10 of his songs. Some of which were ULAN, HALLELUJAH, ALPHA BETA OMEGA, NOYPI,MR.CLAY, F.U., and more! Here's some of the raw photos of Bamboo's performance:

Spill-Over Benefits

A month ago, my friend MARIBETH bought a new phone,her dream phone according to her- the SONY Ericsson K800i. Well, I should say I almost wanted to my one for myself but right now I don't think it would be practical. Anyway, I'm glad Beth's my friend I have my own share of the so-called spilled over benefits with her new phone.

Probably one of the best features of this SE k800i is the Warp! It's really funny and though you don't look good using the feature, it makes you really cool if you have the guts using it as you YM avatar for the whole office to see!

Here's some of the best shots I have with it:

Breathing In Makes Me Wanna Die

Whew! its been four days since my seatmate Rayland transferred to our new office. Well, I guess it was a bad idea that he got a new client. He had to to be transferred and its kinda weird that he's not here. I've been experiencing not-so-good situations recently and please if you're thinking I'm over reacting, think again... I feel like I'll be having my asthma every time I try to inhale! Ooops... Don't get me wrong. The asthma issue has nothing to do with Rayland being transferred. It's something else, something worst!

Actually, I thought its something that I should keep within this myself but today, I've realized that its not only I who noticed it! God! I just wish this UNPLEASANT situation will end as soon as possible! Seriously, I'm really disturbed and I don't know what to do to settle this issue! If only I could avoid breathing! :-((
