SPTD : Saksak Puso Tulo ang Dugo Song List Meme

Eunice recently commented on a the (d*mn) Gotye song Iya sent me that I posted– “Somebody that I used to know” and called the song.. SPTD. I went “huh?” Then I figured out it meant — Saksak Puso Tulo ang Dugo. She posted another song by Cynthia Alexander and called it the same. Maricris then had this brilliant idea to make a compilation of SPTD songs. So in the essence of trying to put thought into action, I’ve decided to make a list of SPTD songs. Maybe this can be one of those meme things and I’m tagging all of you who’ve read this to do this too!

Post the first 10 top of mind songs that makes your heart feel like it was stabbed when you hear ‘em! haha!

GAME? GAME!

1. Somebody that I Used To Know – Gotye

2. Someday – Nina
3. Shiver – Coldplay

4. Nicest Thing – Kate Nash

5. Love Will Tear Us Apart – Joy Division
6. I Know it’s over – The Smiths

7. Crying – Roy Orbison
8. Pangarap lang Kita – Parokya ni Edgar (this was top of mind bec 2 people actually sent me this song. for me daw. haha! but yeah, )

9. I can’t make you love me – Bonnie Raitt

10. the long and winding road – the Beatles

I’m a schizo, schizo bunny.

Seussical: Theatre for Young Audiences

I managed to catch an earlier screening of this Repertory Philippines musical c/o Jeeves with Carla and Blooey. I’m not the biggest fan of Dr. Seuss, but it was an enjoyable experience with the colorful costumes, lovable characters, and catchy songs abounding!

The musical is an amalgamation of most of Dr. Seuss’ works put in song.  Notable favorites include “It’s Possible” (I can hear the laughter of the 3 people I watched this with), “Amayzing Mayzie/Amayzing Gertrude”, “Notice Me, Horton”, “Alone in the Universe”, and of course—”All For You”.

Highly recommended for kids and kids at heart!   I’ll be watching this musical again on the 27th, naaddict ako tawaging…”young audiences” e!

Seussical will be showing in Greenbelt Onstage from August to December 2011. For tickets you can contact, (2) 571-6926. Or logon to Ticketworld.

Sidenote: If you want to watch the 27th pm show, methinks there are still Orchestra Side tickets available for P450, click on this for more information. 

Endnote: I need a pillsberry bush. haha!

Some surf, Some memories

Since it seems to be flat all over, I’m left here trying to re-arrange my weekend. Pfft.

I’ve also realized that I haven’t posted about surfing in a while but that’s because I’ve been out of the water for more than 3 weeks now. and i’m white. and i suck. and i’m dying. saaad faaaace!

So eniwei, I’ve decided to blog about some of the videos my friends made of our semi-recent surftrips, and to finally blog about my Bali trip.

IN CLOUD NINE STATE by Peter James Villarta

This video was taken during our semi-recent surfing trip to Siargao Island. Cloud nine was itty bitty small for what it’s supposed to be and that’s the only reason I could surf it. But still awesome,  right?

The Bali Trip

I did recently take my first long trip in 2 years (for me anything beyond 2 days is a long trip) to the island of Bali in Indonesia. This trip was planned last year, but I was majorly unprepared for it. It all worked out though. Life is awesome.

Kuta Beach early in the morning

The best memory of that trip was when I was waiting for a wave (about 2 days into the trip) and I realized i was in BALI! and I didn’t have to think of work, or anything else–the water was cold, the beach was full of people, the sky was blue and cloudy (yay shade!), and there was a wave coming. =) BEST.FEELING.EVER.

Surfed a funboard when i should have gotten a longboard, getting ready to surf Canggu

the surfgroup that went to Canggu

Trying to get a right hander in Canggu =)

We stayed in Kuta for the whole trip but managed to take a quick daytrip sidetrip to Canggu, which totally rocked. To say the waves were really nice in that spot is an understatement.

I came home refreshed and very much rejuvenated. I really needed that trip.

Since I’ve been surfing, I can’t imagine going to a place that I can’t sneak in some wave/water-time. So sadly, I have not been to any trips but I have been making use of the free time that I have to  finish off some books in my TBR pile. I think i’m counting 20+ books+comic books from July to today. Not bad considering some of those books were doorstops, and I still have work and a semi-busy social life.

That said, I’m going to watch a play tonight, and eat at Mercato. Tomorrow might be another play or a movie, maybe wavepool surfing on Sunday, but I know i’m supposed to be somewhere on Sunday night, but I’m terrible with dates.

Another weekend in the city, but all I really want to do is surf.

Big Z comp next week, hopefully I can join and there are waves coming.

ENDNOTE : I really don’t think I would have much fun surfing if not for the people I surf with. You know who you are, and you know that you rock. I love you guys.
