Happy Birthday, Michael Jackson

It's not so long ago when a boy was born.  The eighth of ten children to an African American working-class family , in Gary, Indiana, an industrial suburb of Chicago.[]

With an interview with Oprah, he admitted been abused physically and emotionally, learning his talents the hard way.  He's been trained of singing and dancing instead of playing outside their house, enjoying his childhood.  Then Jackson 5 was born.  One of the songs that I could remember was "Ben" which speculations says Jackson dedicated to a mouse he learned to called his friend when abuse by his father  Joe took place.  He rose to stardom.  He became an icon with his "bitin" pants and white socks, distinctive black sequin jacket and golf glove.  He "Heal(ed) the World" with his songs, made us realize how we should change ourselves first in his "Man in the Mirror", learned to deny things with "Billie Jean", learned how to fall inlove with "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", pays tribute to AIDS victims such as his friend Ryan White. Then the rest is (as they say), a history.

I just wanted to relive his music, his influence as an artist, and what he has become from an abused kid.  Today is supposedly Michael Jackson's 52nd birthday.  

You'll remain the King of Pop in our hearts.  I love you, man...

Nostalgic

You washed and iron my uniforms when I was in elementary and highschool. From the collar, sleeves, shoulder - folded, so it has a "mall-ironed" look. We shared moments of cleaning every corner of the house for my "master" mom will be coming up and is an obsessive compulsive seeing dusts and dirts.

You cook your masterpiece, "misua-patola con carne" and remind me of finishing every grain of rice on my plate as you say, "Maraming batang nagugutom, kainin mo yan." (A lot of children were starving, finish it off.) You took pieces of sanrio rubber bands unto your mouth to braid, ponytail, pigtail and even clipped my hair on special occasions. And at times even saying, "Eh kung kulutin na lang naten?" (Why don't we curl it instead?) You accompany and fetch me to school. You attended every PTAs and school activities.

You even know when I have a crush or special someone and managed to read some of my letters I carefully hidden.  You and I had different flaws but still we clicked and shared secret moments together.  Thank you. It's been 5 years since then. How are you in the desert islands?

I missed you, dad. Four months to go and we'll gonna taste your chicken curry - the one you're talking about in our never-ending talk days ago.  I'm thrilled, titillated, circuxited (excited seems circus people performing on my chest), etc. Til we meet again.

So, who's my Super One?  Isn't it obvious?  My DAD!

real deal

She is everything to me. The way I look at her, the way she looked at me, her sweet nothings when I feel down. We text, chat, cuddle and do every adults has done. Yes. We did it. Every single thing that I'm with her seems a lifetime. We are on our second year now and still counting.. The problem is, I'm from Ilocos she's from Pasig. We only did EVERYTHING in text. E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G....


I don't know how to get through but I love her and everytime I ask her if she did, I can't feel any sincerity..Is it just because we're not into the REAL world or am I just paranoid?

Coldplay Special on Glee

I don't know if any of you did watch this highschooLISH series but yours truly, (ehem) enjoyed this show for quite sometime now. I like how it connects music to the life of each an every members of the Glee Club. How they conquer fears, sadness, and brings passion into music.

They made various renditions of Madonna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and now Coldplay songs. Initially, the band refused the idea of using their songs on the said TV Show. But later they called up Ryan Murphy, the creator of the show, and said they can have the catalog of the songs.


As of the moment, Bryan Adams is the solely artist to refused the show's pleas.

Now, imagine Viva la Vida been sung by Kurt Hummel. :p

I concede.

Ok, I know this is quite late but I wanted to blog it anyway. Haha. Sunday, June 13, 2010 when the first Pilipinas Got Talent, one of the "Got Talent" franchise owned by the British music executive Simon Cowell, crowned it's first royalty. The mesmirizing performance night happened at June 12 and Jovit Baldovino won the other day. Yes he is good, he has the makings of a star blah blah but for ME, they're the most deserving:








1. Jovit Baldivino – 48.81%
2-3. Baguio Metamorphosis / Velasco Brothers
(15.39%, 7.27%)
4. Ingrid Payaket – 5.87%
5. Ezra Band – 5.46%
6. Ruther Urquia – 4.45%
7. Alakim – 2.94%


..and wait, Ezra Band still is my favorite. LOL
