walking in cubao
i'm close to completing my eheads albums. although, my copies of carbonstereoxide, cutterpillow, circus and ultraelectromagneticpop! are in cd format while my copies of stickerhappy and natin99 are in tape format. what i don't have yet are the fruitcake ep, fruitcake lp, bananatype ep and aloha milkyway. i could have had my own aloha milkyway if i just snagged a tape copy of it back in ali mall where i got stickerhappy and natin99 yesterday.
yes, i was in cubao yesterday. my original plan was just to pick up four cds that are still in mint conditin - bob marley and the wailers' catch a fire, jet's get born, mosquitos' sunshine barato and n.e.r.d's fly or die - from a store called future prospects at the marikina shoe expo. i found guy's ad who was selling cds at P1,000 for 3. well, for the four, i got them for only P1,200. and they're still in very good condition. so after getting them, since i was in a part of the metro where i haven't often been to, i decided to stroll around, going to ali mall, sm cubao, gateway, and back. i even thought of going to aurora ave. to look through the ukay-ukay but since it was quite far before i could go to the jeepney bay, i just decided to stay in the area. after all, i've been walking around for quite a while and my feet hurt already. so there you go, after stumbling upon musikland in ali mall where i found the two tapes, i also ended up buying bob dylan's out of time and wolfgang's wurm at P60 each. they actually do have a lot of tapes sold for P60 each such as the smiths, the doors, collective soul, george benson and many more. now, all i gotta do is go back there and buy that aloha milkyway before somebody else gets to it. and look me up a good tape player. yes, why don't their cd copies show up. i wanna have them already.
i got back to up around 7 already. i first had a dinner of burgersteak and a dessert of fruit salad (which could really pass for halo-halo) at jollibee.
and well, since the coming monday is a non-working holiday, i'll be packing my bags and get out of here, for a 3-day vacation in pangasinan. ciao peeps!

the genius that was the eraserheads
Scorpio Rising
Album: Aloha Milkyway
I'm old enough to know
That my stars just won't let go
At this day and age I can see
That the world was meant for me
Some people laugh at what you're doing
They hold you in the sand
I'm having a hard time
Adjusting to these changes
I can see that you lips are moving
But I can't hear what you're saying
Is it yes, or is it no?
It is stop, or is it go?
Is it suck, or is it throw?
Oh is it me or am I just to slow?
I'm young enough to think
That the world looks good in pink
But as far as I can see
That ain't enough for me
Some people hear what you're doing
They pull you by the strings
I'm having trouble
Taking change day by day
When I see you I see red and green
You're like the biggest tree I've ever seen
But it cuts you down
Oh down to size
The apple of my eye
Is rotting underground
I see the future burning in their eyes
But I don't care what it's saying
Is it high or is it low?
Is it hide or is it show?
Is it shrink or is it grow?
Is it the twister ahe he he he hey!
I wrote this song while I was eating beans
Now don't you try and ask me what that means
It's just like asking me to tell you my dreams
I would have told you long ago but now it seems
You're far away
Here come the loony bin
Come to take me away
You put a scar in my twisted face
In the yearbook I look out of place
I see my letter burning in you hand
It took me 25 years just to understand
Blue is the color of my skin
Blue is the color of my skin
Blue is the color of my...woh!
Saturn Return
For the land
Land of the sun, sun, sun
All the lawyers pray to God
Airconditon my brain
There's a note in my ear that I can't sustain
Drain all my fear oh dear
Trapped inside an aeroplane
Sittin' on the aisle as you snooze
Excuse me sir coffee, tea, or juice
All I want right now is sleep
Please, o, please let me count my sheep
Swimming in my headphone dream, beam
The soundtrack propels me to the extreme
Unconscious tricked me like a lawyer
Save some wine sublime and a prayer
Destination unknown
Invasion like a nervous election
Orbiting a 24-track
Waiting for saturn to come back
In a hostile takeover bid
For the life
Life in the sea, sea, sea
All the lawyers pray to God
Connect me to a scanner
Who's in-charge of the sci-fi nightmare
Tomato 1 callin' starship crew
Ground patrol tomato 2
Bouncin' on a cellulite doorbell
Another planet, another hotel, oh well
Snack food shooting marathon
Hypnotized by your own playstation
I'm a toy
With a dream to redeem
Try to change some rules in the mainstream
Mayday, Mayday
Outta control rocket
I think we just hit a nasty air pocket
I'm getting dizzy like a drunken bee
Buzzin' around in the galaxy
Nevertheless guess who's cruisin' here
When saturn flies by
In a hostile takeover bid
For the clouds
Clouds in the sky, sky, sky
All the lawyers pray to God
In a hostile takeover bid
For the mind
Mind of the child, child, child
All the lawyers pray to God

temporary solution to the heat/humidity(?)
it was raining lst night and until early dawn. so right now, it's very humid here in the philippines. after an early dismissal from our math 53 class, i walked back here to the sc contributing all the more to the very warm and uncomfortable feeling that i have. so here i am, sitting in front of a pc, just so i could have an hour of precious coolness. and well, the hour's about to end. P25 an hour, man. really sucks when it's hot.
pic from the checkout
yes, a long overdue post. one of the many pics from the checkout dive last nov. 6 & 7 at anilao, batangas.
man, i miss diving already. i've only had one go so far. and right now i'm missing it. only four dive logs and i'm itching for more. anyone of you out to get some underwater fun, call me as long as you can take care of the finances, hehe.. yep, these are hard times. i just wish diving is as cheap as swimming in the beach. wishful thinking...
