    Eraserheads Concert Tickets – August 30

    23

    The E-Heads concert this Saturday (August 30) is probably the most disorganized, most perplexing yet most awaited concert in the history of our country. It’s so strange — and annoying, I should say — how the news about the concert changes every couple of hours. Here’s the latest I read from Odysseylive.net:

    (As of 8/27/08) Wednesday 5:46pm

    A couple of minutes ago i got a message saying information that made me jump out of my seat! It said that folks involved with MTV Philippines have taken over the show of the Eraserheads reunion concert and that ticket prices have been changed to P800 and P1300! Immediately i made the call to MTV to find out if these reports were true…indeed they are!!!

    Radiohead Media Solutions, Inc. announces the acquisition of the concert rights to the much awaited one-night-only Eraserheads reunion this coming Saturday, 30 August 2008. The Reunion is to be slated at the Bonifacio Global City Open Field.

    It has officially been confirmed that the Eraserheads One Night only Reunion concert has been taken over by Radiohead Media Solutions! After Marlboro pulled out, it seems like they took on the responsibility of doing the show and giving the fans what they want!!! Not only that, but ticket prices are also now at P800 and P1300. Tickets will be sold at ticketworld starting august 28 and you can call them for inquiries at 891-9999.

    I know im the first one to release this info and many of you may not believe me but this news comes directly from MTV’s head honcho! Believe it or not!!!

    Farewell, Jingles

    10

    Yesterday, I received the news from my dad that my one of my hamsters just died. I’m not one to take this kind of loss lightly, but thank goodness I didn’t cry upon reading his text. I guess I kinda had it coming. Jingles was acting weird the past few days. Her fur had been shedding, leaving a bald spot near her tail. She was old, it was just her time to go.

    Even so, last night was a very sentimental time for us. Now that Belle, my other hamster, is alone, I feel the need to play with her once in a while so she doesn’t feel lonely. Before going to sleep last night, I took her cage up to my room and put it on the table beside my bed so we can just be with each other. She didn’t make the usual ruckus she and Jingles used to make, she just quietly sat in one corner. Then when I woke up this morning she was frantic inside her cage, desperate to get out. I placed her in my hand to stroke her fur when I realized she was making this faint, but very distinct sound that I’ve never heard before. It’s like she was crying!

    Calaguas Island

    23

    Hidden somewhere in the Pacific coast of Camarines Norte in the region of Bicol is the group of islands called Calaguas. My friends and I took a 2-hour boat ride from a port (more like a creek, really) in Bagasbas, Daet to see these secluded islands with pristine beaches. The island we set foot on aren’t inhabited by that many locals, in fact there was just one house in the vicinity (that I know of). But the isolation didn’t bother us, it was actually the best thing about the island. I wouldn’t be thrilled to see the day they overly commercialize that place. If you’re the kind of person who freaks out when a proper toilet, bedroom, food establishment, or running water is not around, then this untainted island may not be the place for you. But if you don’t mind having limited access and you’re only concerned about being one with nature, then you will undoubtedly enjoy the solitude the Calaguas islands have to offer. :)

    Er, okay, that first paragraph didn’t sound so right. It sort of reads like I’m selling the place! Sorry. It is just too beautiful to ignore. I mean, take a look at the white sand and crystalline waters in the photos below. I’m still deciding whether the beach in Calaguas is better than the white sand beach in Pagudpud..
