Spotlight: #PhantomManila back after 7 years

-

Back in 2012, I watched Phantom in the Opera while working on my undergraduate thesis with a mentor that worked at CCP. My groupmates and I would head over to CCP and hear them rehearse. There was even a time that we were eating at the nearby Harbour Square and three of the cast were also eating at the same place. Fast forward to last year when I was jumping with utter joy when Jonathan Roxmouth announced on his Twitter and Facebook pages that he was returning to Manila, playing the talented and yet terrifying Phantom. Last February 23, I got my second chance of watching this incredible music come alive. Like my spotlight on Mamma Mia, I won't go into the details of the plot. [There is the movie and the book if you want a more in depth look into the story.] I'll be going straight to my thoughts on this tour. THOUGHTS I need to get this out first, the Phantom I watched was Ian Jon Bourg and HE WAS AMAZING! Yes, most people would watch this expecting the main cast but...

“I should be writing…”

I say this multiple times a day(or basically every time I open the file of the book/article/story I have to write that is due in a couple of days). But alas, other things are occupying my head. Because my brain can’t handle all the jumbled ideas, I created this dumping ground of everything going on. Do I think anyone will read this? Probably not. But hey, at least I can show it to my descendants and say how incredible sarcastic, bitter yet intelligent and thought provoking I was. As said on the side, I am worryingly obsessed with everything under the sun (movies, shows, books, sports, food, fashion...you name it, I love it). I work in a good, secure job that pays for all the bills. I take pictures because I see the beauty of the world through a lens. I live through the words I write (or type if you want to be literal about it). I patiently wait for the one (because I believe in the cheesy thing called Love). But most of all, I am a human being who is grateful for yet anot...

Spotlight: #BigBadWolfBooksPH 2019

I started this blog late last year so the first BBW had already come and gone. This year I was lucky enough to get my hands on VIP tickets a second time and indulged my bookworm heart last February 21. I'm sure by now, everyone is aware of what BBW is. The basic is this, one huge sale of books from children's board books to books on knitting and airplanes to crossword puzzles. As a frequent visitor of Fully Booked and Book Sale, I just had to look around and it did not disappoint. On the VIP day (basically a preview day), I ended up with 17 books, a mix lot of Fiction, Young Adult, Children's Reference, Travel and History books. [Addendum: I've been to BBW three times. The 21st, 24th and 28th. All in all I've bought 27 books, roughly 220 each book.] The lines were smooth then but mainly because it was the preview day and not much people were going. Last Sunday was a whole different story. The problem is the system BBW had with payment needs tweaking. Wha...
