I filmed myself yesterday morning. I just combed my hair, but haven’t washed my face… eww! Here is how I look in the morning, well, yesterday morning! I edited it and used the song Lorelai Instrumental by Tom Tom Club.
When I got home last night, everyone was watching American Idol, and since I am a fan of the show, I sat on the couch and joined in the fun. I know for a fact that Filipinos are very talented in any field. One of our strong areas is singing. We all know about Charice Pempengco and her youtube fame on the Ellen Degeneres show, and now, here’s another one who can make a mark.
Behold, Renaldo Lapuz. Fine, this is a really funny clip, but, let’s admit it, his own composition is infectious! I can’t get it out of my head since I last heard it. “I am your brother, we’re best friends forever!” I bet if you heard it, you will agree with me.
The three judges, especially Simon, actually liked him. Obviously, he got a “No”, but like any Filipino, he took it gracefully. He didn’t have any hard feelings about it. He even thanked Simon for letting him sing.
It’s official. Classes for this semester are finally over! I was able to finish my computer animation final’s piece at 4am Monday morning. It’s a short skit about a boy and a girl. I’ve uploaded it at You Tube. It was created with Flash MX. I’ve been so stressed out, I’ve had no decent sleep. At least now, I can sleep earlier and wake up late!
My friend’s mom died of breast cancer last weekend. The news seemed so sudden. My friend never mentioned anything about his mom. Well, he’s always been very secretive, and kept most things to himself. According to her girlfriend, his mom never told them of the bump she felt on her breasts, until she really felt ill and was rushed to the emergency room last Friday. The doctors said that chemotherapy is out of the question because the radiation will fry her. I don’t really know what to say to him, except that her mom’s soul is in my prayers. I don’t know what it feels like to lose a parent, and I don’t want to experience that any time soon. It must be really hard for a person in this situation to move on. All we can do for him right now is to be there for him.
Anyway, I want everyone who will comment on this entry to ask me a question. Any question that you may have in mind, and I will answer some, if not all, on my next update. Be creative!
