rock.

Ever since i was a kid i hated rock. I always have this impression that people linked to rock is always being associated with drugs, alcohol and worst is suicidal tendencies. One of the few examples is Kurt Cobain, the main vocals of band Nirvana. He died at an early age of 27yo. Was in rehab in and out. had detox but same ordeal of withdrawal. He was considered as one of the legacy in rock industry. 
Next we have James "Jim" Morrison, guy behind The Doors band. His Rolling Stones front-cover is one of the best seller issue of all time. He was at his peak when he died at same age of 27yo. But until now his death is still being disputed. One thing for sure, it still being associated with drugs and alcohol. 
Lastly, who wouldn't know the King of Rock n Roll, Elvis Presly himself. Found dead on his mansion bathroom and believed to have drugs misuse for years which is still remains to be proven as the family kept it away from the media. 


Mainly the reason why I am blogging about rock is because I tried to open my mind to the soul of this genre. And its not bad at all. Been on my playlist all day long and to be honest the lyrics, when you get to listen carefully there is some kind of a depth on it. Theme of sounds maybe predictable on some people but for me its more than that. Misinterpretation is always part of something that's getting on their peak and this is one of those. Soul is what this music carries when you take it deep within. There is something in the lyrics that will captivate the attention. If music is played with the wrong bunch of people that's when you lose the touch and you began to use alternatives to create music that sometimes leads to tragic ending. 


These are some of the artists I really admire. Amazing sound. Careers on top. Good music. 


Coldplay*Florence and the Machine*Incubus
Oasis*Ben Rector*Maroon5
The Script*Dashboard Confessional*James Morrison

Serena: Are you sure? Because I know this may sound crazy or selfish or... like I'm living in the past or something. But you were the love of my life, Dan. I don't know, I just thought I was yours too.

thai cravings.

Because of boredom last Monday, i ended up stuck in my tv tube browsing some good shows. And one show caught my attention for one reason, FOOD!! It features the latest finds around the metro, may it be food, fashion, trends, travel, culture, movies ETC. At that time they were into food. They were trying out Mango Tree Bistro in Greenbelt 5. Ordering your food is not their ordinary coz customers were provided with IPad!! Yep! You heard it right! Customers get to see the actual pictures on an IPad. Imagine how how cool is that! :) And guess where am I the very next day?? Not in Greenbelt but in Trinoma branch. Because of my personal love on Thai food with all the spices and herbs this is definitely a "Must Try" for me. These what we got. BURP!!! Ooppss :D


Tom Yum is an instant favorite on me. Perfect one!
Since I'm into soups, what a way to put spice on it matching it
with big slices of shrimps. Need say more? 

Pad Thai, one of Thailand's best.
Close on having that authentic taste! 

Gai Thai Krai Yang, own version of lemon grass chicken with perfection,
served with  Northeastern dipping lemon sauce. 
I am definitely going back and will try their best seller deep fried breaded shrimp cake and this much talk about Pla Krapong Neung Ma Now, in short, its a huge fish dish place on an oval pot which has candles under floating in a sea of sauce. I will see you SOON! :)

making a turn.

after all that has been said and done. all the hurtful words that has crushed us. it all boils down to no one wins this bout. we both lose the game. lessons learned and time to move on. i may have been quiet the whole time scared that if i say words you might leave me in the dark upside down, scarred with all the painful thoughts. what i am right now is the person i become after all the things that molded me to be a better person. what hurts is you are no longer to witness that. our story is what's gonna linger me as i turn my back away from you. it was a struggle trying to win your trust. we were tussling over our personal issues. i am being pushed back against the wall every time we fight the same reasons. i got tired. we both got tired. that was the hardest part coz no one wants to take the fight anymore. we were restless. now that we're done, friendship goes down the drain unnoticeable. part of me died...
i may have died but knowing that we were better off this way then im throw in the towel and accepts this defeat. im making a swirl on my decision of letting you go.. i had to and i need to, knowing the downside of me losing you. im walking out of the dream i used to have and as i take this big turn, im bringing that dream with me. thank you for coming into my life..... sorry if my efforts still makes you feel less of a person until the very end, i tried.. i really do. word war ends here. and i will end it with our story. story that will always starts from that vivid memory when you asked my name. thank you for asking me because when i looked back, i dont think i will ever have that guts. thank you for sharing that story with me and emptily thank you for giving me enough reasons to let you go for good. ily.
