Lifehouse in Manila = AWESOME!!!

I just came home from the concert. Man, it was short but sweet. It lasted for only an hour and a half but it was worth every painful penny. They sang about 10-12 songs, I wasn't able to keep count because I was partly busy adjusting my camera which could only record 4 minutes of video (I don't know why, it was 500mb), and partly screaming my lungs out.

Jason and the rest were simply magnificent. They were very energetic, running and jumping around the stage. They really looked like they were having fun with us. The whole coliseum was really pumped up. The house was packed to the brim. I actually vacated my seat and ran as near to the stage as the big thugs would allow me. Haha. I got to the fifth row, I think. Even though I didn't know the lyrics to all their songs, I just jumped along with the people beside me. Marvelous. I think I sweat off my whole lunch.

They sang my most favoritest song in the world, Hanging by a Moment. I guess it's pretty obvious that they're gonna sing it because it's their first hit ever here in the Philippines (or was it Sick Cycle Carousel? Basta.). They also sang You & Me (okay, stop saying duh). I also wished they'd perform Everything. But they didn't. Sigh. It's one of the...I don't know, it's a "swelling song". You know, the one that starts low and slow and then swells towards the end and then you unconsciously start banging your head. It was one of Smallville's Lana+Clark songs. Lol.

Anyway, I didn't get that many pictures because of the weird camera memory thing. I did get several videos though. I'm gonna work on compiling and uploading them here some time later. As of now, here are the only pics. :)

Analog Heart

Here it is finally, Analog Heart by David Cook.

Enjoy!

I'm an hour away from going home! Yey! I just wonder, why is it when I'm this near from freedom when the work comes? I'm asked to make another press release. Not that the first one sucked or anything. Well, okay maybe it did.

Today was my first meeting with a PR agent, which was not what I envisioned it to be. I thought they were gonna be all corporate and everything, which is why I chose to wear this crisp white shirt someone gave my mom. It looks so nice and corporate. But Lo and behold, it creases easily! I'd have to iron it every hour if I wanted to look crisp the whole day. When I got out of the car this morning it's already creased. Argh. So much for looking sharp.

Sp yeah, the meeting was really short, like, 10 minutes? It was very relaxed too.I guess that's because she's a classmate of my boss'. She said that a lot of cafes are opening right now so all of them are sending press releases about their opening. So I guess the first one I made wasn't technically garbage. It's just that a lot of people are writing the same thing that it wouldn't stand out anymore. Hey, PR class said that write something that's newsworthy and our opening is definitely newsworthy, with the lion dance and all. But I'm happy I learned something today: Be unique.

I actually learned something today! How cool is that?

However, I'm still hunting for my next ojt. I already called GMA and they said that they aren't accepting any more practicumers. So that sucks. So now I have my eyes on Summit Media again. I sent my resume once more but to a new contact person. They already updated their website and placed a contact specially for OJTs. Haha. That's good. This time around I'd really call. I so wanna work there.

I also want a job that would require me to give out calling cards. Haha!

Anyway, I managed to kill half an hour with this post. Man, I love this cafes DSL. 4 of the 5 episodes I'm downloading are already done, and the last one would no doubt be done just in time before I go home. This rocks. I'm gonna download everything here from now on. This would be like the pay that they don't give me. Lol.

Maybe tomorrow I'll actually download whole seasons. Haha!
