"Each morning I get up with the sun..."
Below is a video of the UP Concert Chorus performing a medley of Gershwin's songs, taken during one of our concerts in Norway way back in the year 2000.
I remember that the stage was huge, the lights and the sound systems were perfect - and the audience was amazing. We even had Norweigian visitors we met at a festival that we attended earlier that year.

St. Louis, Missouri and the Gateway Arch

Interviewed by an American writer
I consider myself a newbie blogger - by all normal standards (Alexa Rank, Feedburner readers, etc. - and all those uber important metrics) and so I was a tad bit hesitant when I was asked to participate in a group interview about my thoughts on blogging - with some veteran bloggers, a few probloggers and winners of the EIB 2009. To top it off, the interviewer, Holly Jahangiri, is a professional American writer! Needless to say, I was both honored and pressured to give each question some long deliberation (and proof-reading) before I sent my answers. Lol.

Highschool Life Meme - Pisay '99
For the non-Filipino speakers, please pardon me.
This is a meme I got from some high school batchmates, several of them have answered the survey and posted it on their Facebook. I do have an FB account, but I prefer to put this on here! :D
As a brief background - Pisay is a nickname for the Philippine Science High School - the premier high school in the Philippines.
If you want to take the PSHS Competitive Entrace Exams or have a son/daughter/niece/nephew/neighbor or anyone who want to take it - Click HERE for some details.

I was beginning
A Theme Thursday Post
Zero
I was beginning to get bored
inside my mummy's tummy
so I kicked the joint and split
through this passageway so tiny
It took me three whole days
it was a special trilogy
until at long last I was born
on that night of a syzygy
Puberty
I was beginning to grow
hair in places that you know,
and my voice was always cracking
Oh, what about my singing?
So I went to the Doc
To seek medical support
But instead, he circumcised me
Now I'm no longer "supot".
Lol.
*supot is a Filipino word that means "uncircumcised".
