Shopping to Burn After Reading

spent the day with Bernice and decided to go to Festival Mall to have a change of atmosphere since we're mostly in Town Center. I had a feeling it would be quite "scary" today in the sense that we'd both end up shopping and we did hehehe She ended up buying a pair of boots at Nine West and I just bought some shirts in Giordano and one at a sale in Armani Exchange. Our last stop was in Puma where I was checking out this pair of shoes and I couldn't try it out cuz I didn't have any socks on. I didn't want to try anything without socks (I think everybody shouldn't hehe) So I rushed to Robinsons to buy socks and headed back to Puma to try em on. Unfortunately, they only had only one pair for my size which had poor quality control (for that size only. I'm not dissing puma cuz I love the brand). I didn't want to settle. Good thing I was eyeing this black jacket (cuz I needed one) so I decided to spend my money where it's worth it.

Berns wanted to watch a movie at Town Center so we drove there and saw Burn After Reading. I was quite hesitant at first coz a friend of mine said it sucked. I LOVED IT! hehehe

Anyway, it was my rest day cuz my weekend was more like a "weakend'  since we had out Lovecore photoshoot then I had to drive to Los banos for a function, head back to Manila at 7am then go to church in the evening and head to a stag party of a friend which I organized with friends. It was great to finally spend the day with Berns and just be "lazy" and just enjoy the day.

Today, I guess I'll be  back working on the album again. I'm now waiting for some windows updates to finish coz my computer's actin up so I'm doing updates hoping to fix it.

So there...

Don't forget the gig on the 29th in Festival Mall Alabang!

Help my band, Lovecore

We're about to launch our single on the airwaves and we're asking help from anyone who may know anyone in radio stations if you can help us out. We're doing this the indie way so we're just relying on the help of friends because we don't want to pay anyone (payola) just to get airplay. We want the music to speak for itself.

We're targeting all stations even provincial stations because we want our music to reach all corners of the country.

Aside from the single, we're also looking for potential sponsors for the album and for the band like clothing, accessory or shoe sponsors as we launch the single so we can all benefit mutually in the promotions.

We're also planning on doing the video for our single so if you're an indie filmmaker or you know anyone who wants to assist with this, it'll be greatly appreciated.

We're finally doing this so we're stretching it and calling out for assistance in any way from all our friends and contacts. Ika nga, wala nang hiya hiya...

Let me know by replying or texting me at 09175004517

This is the season God has prepared for us. It took time for us to get here but we're grateful at the chance to be doing this and to be a blessing in the process.

Thanks in advance for any help big or small. God bless.

tele blah

I just paid my reservation for my very first Fender Telecaster. I'm really excited because lately I've been looking at getting a Telecaster... specifically a 62 reissue since I like how it looks (yes I know we should choose the best sounding). I just love the sunburst especially the double binding. After inspecting the guitar and handing my downpayment, the excitement at getting it finally hit me. Now all I have to do is wait for a payment to come in so I can finally get the guitar.

God's just great at how he opens a window when a door closes. I was supposed to get a japanese Telecaster from someone but the seller was so hard to deal with and when signs showed about his character, I didn't have the peace to pursue the purchase so I stopped looking for a Tele. Just this week, I chanced upon an ad of the EXACT model I've always wanted and not just something I wanted to settle with like the Jap Tele. I finally get the one I like with much better value and quality.

Since I already have a couple of guitars in my collection. My girlfriend's new rule for me is to sell something I don't use or something I'm willing to part with before I buy another guitar, that's why I recently put some of my most prized synthesizers on the market to pay for the guitar. It's just a blessing I was able to find a seller VERY quickly and to be able to have the guitar reserved to me since there were so many inquiries about the tele I'm buying and some even wanted to buy it already. The seller's just plain great that he's a man of his word and stood by his since he already confirmed sale to me so it's really a "treat" more like my Christmas gift for myself haha

Anyway, I just needed to let out some of the excitement hehe

God bless
