Awesome Concert by The Script!

Last night, I was fortunate enough to to watch The Script LIVE! Lesson learned, you have to buy tickets EARLY and save enough money. I had an amazing time at the concert! Worth every centavo!

They played their hits but I wanted them to play "Live like we're dying". But it's all good, they played "Deadman Walking"which is my favorite track on their latest album. So I'm a happy fan!

The man who can't be moved, If you ever come back, Nothing, I'm Yours, Breakeven, and For the first time were all played. All worth it!

What I look for in good concerts is performer-audience engagement. Thankfully, the 4 Irish men were cool with their Filipino fans. They had a blast with the Manila crowd :)

Hopefully, they'll come back soon...

The Breakfast of Champions

What is the breakfast of champs? 

Is it a cereal brand with athletes on the packaging? 

Is it a glass of Raw Eggs that you gulp down in seconds like Rocky Balboa? 

Is it Champorado and Tuyo? 

Is it a bagel with cream cheese?

Is it a bowl of cereal?

Coffee and bread? 

It got me thinking that people have their own favorite breakfast dishes. Their favorite is thus, their own "Breakfast of Champions"

Me? I loooooove breakfast! I'll eat anything from Spam and Eggs with sinangag. Longganissa, Tocino, Tuyo, Galunggong (yes, Galunggong happens to be one of my favorite fishes so please don't judge me), cereal, donuts, bacon, pancakes, hashbrowns, Pop-Tarts, Milo, hotdog, Puto, kutchinta, bibingka, etc! Breakfast food frikkin rocks!

Perfect with a nice warm cup of coffee will get me going. I take it black and no sugar in the morning. 

But if I were to choose... I make mean Scrambled Eggs! What I do is after I beat the eggs and put it on the pan, I don't stop mixing it on the hot pan. Plus I don't cook it all the way. I like my scrambled eggs still wet. I hate it when it's dry. Oh, don't forget the ROCK salt. NOT iodized, Rock! Believe me, there's a difference.

What about you? What's your champion breakfast? 

See the Philippines! - BOHOL

Go see the Philippines!!! 

Last October, I went to Bohol and it was AMAZING! 

I've always wanted to see the Chocolate Hills and the clear beaches of Bohol. It did not disappoint! What I can tell you to do if you're in Bohol for vacation are 3 things. 

1. Go see the magnificent shores and just RELAX. Take a swim and just let go.

2. Have lunch in the river cruise. The food may not be the best, but the experience of riding a boat on a river and having lunch at the same time is pretty awesome. You have to try it when you're in Bohol!

3. Most importantly, YOU HAVE TO SEE THE CHOCOLATE HILLS! I tell you, they are just way too awesome for words. You get to see how God made the world so beautiful. You know those pictures of the hills you see in books, posters, and postcards? It looks like that but 1000x more awesome!!!

It was the most memorable trip of 2010 for me. It was just fun to be with friends and loved ones and seeing new things together. The Philippines has just so much to offer! We need to be good "ambassadors" of our own Tourist spots! If you're planning a trip this summer, I say avoid the crowded beaches and just relax in Bohol. It's peaceful and quiet plus you just get to rest, relax, and unwind...

Q&A Again!

I just got 617 followers now on The Tangled Web and I will not Tweet this post. This goes out to the loyal readers of the blog. :)

It's another Question and Answer! I haven't done this after a long time! This is the 3rd time I'm doing this. I know there's this thing called Formspring but I'll do it the old-fashioned way and just post on the blog. I wanna survey the people who read this. :) Plus I wanna interact with the readers!

I can't answer everything though... I'll screen them first of course. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to comment and give your inputs. They'd me much appreciated. :)

If you're a friend of mine, don't joke around anymore. You can text me anyway...

Questions until Friday, April 15, 2011 :)

Artwork - Manix Abrera

A couple of months ago, I attended Manix Abrera's first ever art exhibit in Pablo Gallery in Cubao X. I found out that he was showcasing his art and I just had to go since I wanted to feature him in the Yahoo! Blog. Manix is the guy who does "Kikomachine" which can be seen in the Philippine Daily Inquirer. He  also did a "silent" comic book / graphic novel called "12" which is really awesome by the way. 

Anyway, I go down to his exhibit and I see tons of people. I check out the art and find out that it's for sale! I couldn't believe it! Original Manix Abrera art was frikkin FOR SALE! 

A lot had been sold already and the colored / painted cover of Kikomachine Vol. 6 was in the center. It had been sold already. I go around the exhibit and see my favorite story from "12" called "Palaka" and there wasn't any mark that it had been sold. I ask the managers of Pablo and I was right! It wasn't sold yet! 

So I got it :)

I have to blog about it since I just got it yesterday. After the exhibit, you have to wait a while until the whole exhibit run ends. It's a treasure of mine! :) It's my favorite story from "12" and I just love Manix's work! If there's one thing I can pass on to you when you buy art, never ever, I mean NEVER EVER ask for a discount. That's the artist's work. It's just rude. You steal something inside from them that you can never give back. Makes sense? :) Plus c'mon! YOU are the only person in the world who has that. You get what you pay for so don't worry! 

It'll be a while until Manix has another exhibit... But be sure to check out his work. Kikomachine already has 6 volumes plus "12" just plain rocks!!! He might be at the Summer Komikon this weekend though :)
