Gaga!


OMG!!!

I'm still having PCD (Post Concert Depression) from Lady Gaga's concert last night. Me and Chris decided to watch like a day before the show so goodbye good seats! Haha

But good thing we did because I think I'll die if I miss the show. This is by far the greatest live concert performance that I have seen (Okay except Sarah Brightman :D)! I mean like really, WOW. This girl really performs like a goddess and she knows how to make her audience scream, shout, sing, and jump like crazy!

We were seated all the way up but it did not matter. The disappointment vanished when Lady Gaga started rocking on the stage. Yay! No one can beat her quirkiness.

Here is the set-list of the concert. I'm really not sure if I can list this chronologically. Forgive me. Haha

1. Paparazzi
2. LoveGame
3. Beautiful, Dirty, Rich
4. Money Honey
5. The Fame
6. Boys boys boys
7. Just Dance
8. Brown Eyes
9. Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)
10. Poker Face - Acoustic, Sexy, Hot, Horny Version
11. Poker Face

The concert only lasted for more or less an hour. It was so bitin but we had real fun nonetheless.

Do I still need to say it? Yea, I'm a FAN.

Quotable Quotes:

From Lady Gaga's twitter:

"Just headlined my first arena ALONE, after opening for years. Thank you manila, never forget u. Luv my fans so much, u r the reason I'm here"




From the Concert:
"You know somebody asked me very recently a very strange question . They said, Lady Gaga, do you have a dick? And I said, Yes I do and it's much bigger than yours."

"I have a confession to make. I've cried like 6 times during the show I didn't tell anybody. And I didn't want you to read my poker face but the truth is I love you so so much and it kills me."

"This goes out for all the motherfuckers out there who did not believe in me!"

"Thank you Manila. Love you so much Philippines."

"Where's all my gay kids in the audience?"

"Where's all my gay boys?!"

"My best friend is from the Philippines."

"I love Manilaaaaaaaaaaaaa."

Hahahaha.

Crazy Little Children

Since I started teaching more than a year ago, this was the first time that I walked-out of my class.

This particular batch is infamous for their rowdy attitude and I am not the only teacher complaining about them.

I got inside the room at 1:00 pm, checked the attendance and starting writing my lecture on the board. I can hear people talking and phones beeping. I tried to stay cool and focused on what I was doing. Then come the discussion, a lot of them still were chatting with their friends who were seated in front or behind them. Whispering is kinda ok but their voice was as loud, or louder than mine. I am still recovering from my cough and I lost my voice last Monday.

I called their attention for the first time.

Discussion continued but their talking went on again. I looked down and moved my head to show that I am disappointed, then I went out of the room. After a minute, I went back in and asked them if they were ready to listen to what I was saying.

But while I was speaking in front of the class, some of them continued discussing topics of their own. So without saying anything, I picked my things and went out of the room for the second time and headed back to the faculty room.

I WAS PISSED AT THEM BIG TIME.

I really am sorry for those students who wanted to listen and learn. But I can't stand their classmates' uncivilized attitudes.

RIP Tita Cory

Yesterday was the funeral of the Philippines' first woman president, Mrs. Corazon C. Aquino. And while on our way home, we witnessed the cortege making its way to Manila Memorial Park.

We waited on the road for like 40 minutes but it was all worth it. All cars at SLEX stopped and people rushed to the street just to witnessed this historic event.

Good thing I brought my camera with me and snapped away. It was truly a moving experience for me.

Fearless


Album of the month is:
"Fearless"
by Taylor Swift

I was a little unsure of this album the minute I acquired a copy. But after some time, things changed and I began to love the songs. Taylor is a very talented singer/songwriter in her own rights.

Here are my top picks:
1. You Belong With Me - Alam na kung bakit. Haha
2. Love Story
3. Fearless
4. The Way I Love You
5. Change


You Belong With Me

You’re on the phone with your girlfriend, shes upset
Shes going off about something that you said
Cause she doesn’t get your humor like I do
I’m in my room, it’s a typical Tuesday night
I’m listening to the kind of music she doesn’t like
And she’ll never know your story like I do

But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
She’s cheer captain and I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find what you’re looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can’t you see
You belong with me, you belong with me

Walkin’ the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can’t help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn’t this easy

And you’ve got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven’t seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you’re fine, I know you better then that
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
[ Taylor Swift Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Shes cheer captain and I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you’re looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can’t you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know baby
You belong with me, you belong with me

Oh, I remember you drivin’ to my house in the middle of the night
I’m the one who makes you laugh, when you know you’re ’bout to cry
And I know your favorite songs and you tell me ’bout your dreams
Think I know where you belong, think I know it’s with me

Can’t you see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can’t you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time How could you not know
Baby you belong with me, you belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe you belong with me
You belong with me
