You Too Can See U2

Lynndee — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 23:00:41 +0000

While listening to the radio yesterday, I heard U2’s “With or Without You” – my most favorite song by them. They are one of my favorite bands and it has been my dream to see them in a concert and singing their songs live right in front of me. I have two of their albums, gifts from friends because they know that I am really a fan.

But I haven’t heard updates about the group recently. Or maybe I was just left out. Hmmm…maybe I will just browse online and see what I’ve missed and see what I have to look forward to. I hope it’s not yet too late for me to grab some U2 tickets if they’re having a nearby concert anytime soon. It would surely be nice to see them with my fiancé. Gotta go check now! And maybe we’ll see you there! (“,)

Thank Goodness for Battery Power

It’s hot, though gloomy, and even gloomier because of the power outage due to the rotating brownouts in my area. What a day! I’m glad we have our ipods to keep us (my son and I) company. At least we can enjoy listening to music and forget what we’re going through at the moment. Listening to music is a good relaxing pastime, and it can help you forget your troubles and help you pass the time while singing along with the music, and before we know it, maybe our power will be back on. Or maybe we’ll just doze off and take a nap and wake up to lights. Whatever! I’m just enjoying the music I’ve downloaded.

And thankfully, this laptop of mine is fully charged so I can blab here while listening to my ipod. But still, I can feel the heat because we have no fans or air conditioning. Oh well, can’t do anything about it.

Pacquiao vs. Clottey on Pay Per View

The whole family was here at home yesterday to watch the bout of Pacquiao vs. Clottey on pay per view. How I wish we have seen it live in Texas. LOL. But since it’s really far from possible, I just took shots of the match on TV and you can see them below. Nevertheless, watching it on TV is still very exciting though a little disappointing because Pacquiao didn’t knock off Clottey. Hee hee.

That’s Manny with his team marching down towards the ring.

That’s the Filipino artist and Journey’s lead vocals, Arnel Pineda (in brown jacket) singing the Philippines’ National Anthem.

And these women’s voices really surprised me, huh! Thought they’re only good in dancing and cheering but they really did well in singing “Star-Spangled Banner”. Way to go girls!

When you're down…

… and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
And you know whereever I am
Ill come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You’ve got a friend.

My BA and I sang this song earlier… a duet on the internet (if that’s how you call it). LOL. The song just popped out and I started typing its lyrics while we were chatting. Maybe because we’re both down now. Yes, we’ve been both traveling dusty roads lately but such is life and I do believe, we’ll get over this in time. I’m just so thankful that my BA is always there to comfort me, support me and understand me despite everything that he’s going through.

Aside from Yogi, he’s the one who’s been giving me strength to get on with life’s struggles. I’m just praying that he’ll always be there for me, no matter what. Thanks a lot, my Big Angel. Mwah!

Foam Party

It was on the 5th of September, the day of the Tuna Festival itself when the people in our city enjoyed another night of partying. It was called foam party and it was held at the parking area of the hotel where my BA stayed.

I took this picture around mid afternoon from the window of my BA’s hotel room. As you can see, they were starting to decorate the place and was able to finish around early evening. The party started at around 9 o’clock and we were there together with my girlfriends and BA of course to witness awesome live band music. I’m not so into this kind of parties and it was my first time to have witnessed a foam party actually.

It was called a foam party basically because of the foam machines that the organizers installed in front of the stage. It’s cool. The foam comes out from the two machines and the wind blew them away. But they should have put more machines around the area to make it more fun! But that was good enough.
