Life is good.
I had a pretty rough Friday afternoon (more details soon) that really made me feel bad the whole Friday evening. Someone was being harsh over something that is supposedly not a “BIG” deal to her. In fact, another person (AP) initiated this BD (big deal) even if I raised a concern about it. My bad was I still went with AP’s idea despite my uneasiness (having to always be the “taong bahay,” I thought this one time wouldn’t hurt). To make matters worse, I found out that AP didn’t relay a message that was supposed to be relayed to her early this week that somehow confirms her theory that I don’t give “advise.”
Anyway, I’ll “advise” readers on that soon… maybe during the weekend. I’m hesitant to expose my personal feelings on this (since negative vibes are not welcome on this site), but I owe it to my online journal (and my health) to have a release… and writing has always been my stress buster.

I digress. As my offline plurk announced last weekend, God always finds a way to turn things around for me, without me having to ask. First was the blast I had bonding with CW fam (particularly lil’ sister) during a late night dinner at Bellini’s, I wish I get to spend more time with them. 2nd was my friend and ex-officemate Martin telling me that he’s bringing me to Armiin on November 21. In the Sabi group, I’m the least who appreciates house music (heef haf all the way baby, hippity hippity hop!
) but being on this guest list means being able to spend time with my friends at the event they enjoy –and that makes me happy. 3rd, I also had a great Saturday with the berks, tagging my first LazerXtreme Laser Tag experience, a successful hole-in-the-wall recommendation at Soms, and winning poker night @ Eric’s house (or hotel whichever is more appropriate. Goodness, I soooo love ERT’s house! I dub that my dream house! –with only a few minor adjustments).
Sunday, I had another Laser Tag schedule (yes, two days in a row –only because I cannot turn down any of the two groups. Plus it’s loads of fun!). This time it was with the Sabi group and supposedly some from the Photoholic group (shout-out to Madz!). Bubba’s sister, Jem, and Fidel joined too. Fidel got his hands on 2 free Platinum passes for the Chris Brown Rihanna concert that day so Jem bestowed us their Gold tickets –an instant upgrade from our Silver tickets. Monday night, a small investment quadrupled!
God protects my choice to be happy. Keep the faith!
Life is good.

I just heard Mo’s interview of Chris Brown on the radio Magic 89.9
Mo asked if Chris Brown and Rihanna would do a joint number on stage… Chris Brown answered that he wants the crowd to be surprised at the concert. The concert will definitely be made special whether they do a tandem together or do it back to back, but Chris Brown didn’t want to ruin the thrill of what to expect.

Mo claims that Chris Brown and Rihanna concert will be the country’s powerhouse concert for 2008. Chris Brown recently wrote songs for the Jonas Brothers and Britney Spears.
Mo: With all the Chris Brown money, what’s the number 1 thing on your shopping list?
Chris Brown: I’m not a bling bling guy.
Mark your calendars. November 16, 2008. My friends have bought their tickets. Most of them are getting Gold. I haven’t bought mine but planning to in 2 days. Still can’t decide which ticket to get.
Rihanna is supposed to guest on the Good Times with Mo, Mojo, and Grace Lee show on Thursday.
On other news:
Beyonce announced that she would now like to be known as “Sasha Fierce.” She supposedly needs an alter ego whenever she is at “work” or whenever she performs on stage –a screen name that will protect her and who she really is.

Finally, someone is bringing the two hottest RnB prince and princess to Manila. Kudos to Ticketworld and MTV

Good enough for me at this point. Venue and ticket prices will be released next week. For inquiries, call Ticketworld @ 891-9999.
