I May Love The Oldies: My Music Story

In my last post, I told you my secret obssession on Steve Perry, Gary Barlow and etc. so now I'm gonna tell the entire story. At 3, I started listening to Sergio Mendes, then 4, I listened to Lea Salonga, Mike Francis and Natalie Cole, 5, I adored High School Musical, at 6, it was back to the 70's 80's and 90's, this was Take That, Hajji Alejandro and Joey Albert and now I passed by the 60's, Engelbert Humperdinck, Tom Jones, Neil Sedaka and etc. Now I'm just happy with my playlist. Here are my recommended picks:

If You Leave
Tarzan Boy
Secret
Oh Sherrie
I Just Wanna Be Your Everything.

Playing By The Rules Of TV And YouTube

I'm very fond of TV and ever since I got my cable back after we moved to our new house, I was ever so grateful so after homework even late at night, I would just turn off the TV. But I would see warnings buzzing into my head. What if there are romance scenes that aren't suitable for me? This is a warning for everyone. Did you know even YouTube was dangerous? Yes, even my pal YouTube is strictly dangerous. Here are ways to survive seeing kissing scenes anywhere:

Start with TV

Look at the program guide in which channel the scene is in. If you realize the program is one of the ones that your mom watches like teleserye or Charmed, don't watch it even if your BFF spills something about a dashing cute scene there. I'd rather not!

Another way is not trying to be that addicted to TV but it's OK to still watch because I'm not saying it's forbidden to but just stick to the same ol' favorite channels like Nickelodeon or Disney Channel.

In YouTube

I have a secret obssession on Steve Perry, Gary Barlow and Mike and The Mechanics so sometimes I use them as a soundtrack. Now, while doing this entry, I'm listening to Foolish Heart by Steve Perry and I looked at the video and there's no girl he's seeing there so that's the thing you should know. See if there's any suitable scenes or even words for kiddies like us to see. If there's none and that's the only thing you wanted to see, why not save energy? Listen to your IPod with the music that will calm you down or play with your cellphone. Ever heard of Nickelodeon? Why not just watch TV?

The Chaotic Moveout

It was my exam week and it was time to move out and go to our new house in Spring Country until the first people refused to load our stuff into their bus so we had another day in our old house. The next morning, it was Monday and I told myself" It's the exam!" So I did my best. I went home and told Mom everything. I undressed myself and the second men deafened me like there was a drill in my ear. After about 3 hours, we left for our new house in Batasan. It was sure a long way because Batasan was so far and there were tons of subdivisions in Filinvest II. We exchanged tons of stories while Mom and Dad would just exchange stories about their office deals and their officemate's embarassing moments until we arrived. The dresser, the sofa, the furniture, they were delivered. I sat on the dresser's seat and grabbed my book and began studying for my Filipino exam the next day until the horns beeped so loud, some stuff crashed and distracted me. I pleaded Mom" May I not study anymore, Mom?" She said" OK, just do your best!" That was absolutely awesome but the bad part was no TV but thank goodness Mom allowed me to not study.
