I arrived their early eager to see the bands perform in the Man Blog event dubbed as The Banana Gangbang Rock Festival. The previously announced band line up was cut down to 5 for some reasons. Most of the bands performed were TMB Bands such as Zoo, Tempestuous, Lose your beer belly and Marco Palinar (who’s supposed to play with Sanity Kit but went on a solo act instead. One non-TMB band was able to make it that night and that was Mannequin (managed by Julius Rocas). Continue Reading
Cambio Acoustic Gig at Podium
1 Comment Filed under Events, Sound Trip
Last Thursday, me and Sha unexpectedly spotted a Cambio gig at Podium (just outside UCC) that just started. There were only a few people there. If I’m not mistaken, they played around 8 songs from their new album Cambiomatic (played all songs in acoustic). Raymund Marasigan was not there. It was nice to see them at a gig after a long time. We were able to watch them last year (some time in December) just outside the Glorietta 4 entrance. More pictures of Cambio here.

No Comments Filed under The Traveler
Aglicay Beach Resort is located at Barangay Comod-om in the Municipality of Alcantara, Tablas Island, Romblon. We only spent half day there since we had to go back to Manila already. There are a lot of ways to go there. We took the tricycle ride from Looc.
And if you plan to stay there overnight, take a look at the room rates. Continue Reading

Shifting from iTunes to SongBird
1 Comment Filed under Geeky stuff
SongBird is an open source media player developed by Mozilla that is mashed up with the web. It’s not just a player. It’s also a platform. SongBird is still in its 0.5 version. Maybe when version 1.0 comes out, I’ll install this. For the mean time, I’d like to share to you some useful add-ons if you’re shifting from iTunes. Continue Reading

Carabao Island, Romblon
17 Comments Filed under The Traveler
Carabao Island is just one of Romblon’s tourist destinations that is waiting to bloom. I was able to go there with Sha, Vieve and Evan via a boat from Sta. Fe, Tablas Island, Romblon. The time to go there will take you about almost an hour wherein we spent half the time screaming as if we’re on the Jungle Log Jam (one of the rides in Enchanted Kingdom). Upon arriving there, I just can’t help but admire its beauty. Its shore is covered with white and fine sand, similar to that of Boracay. The water is very clear. It’s wavy there though which is caused by the northeast wind. Continue Reading
In the span of my vacation at Tablas Island, Romblon with Sha, Vieve and Ivan, I took Alaxan Forte to relieve the pain. I was only able to eat pancit, soup and others that needs little effort to be able to chew, swallow and digest. As soon as I arrived at home yesterday, I went to the dentist to have it checked up. Then, I have to take medication an hour prior to the operation (impaction). Afterwards, my cousin accompanied me to the dentist for my operation. It was a bloody operation really but it was not really that painful. I guess this is because that the left side of my lips, gums and cheeks were numb. After the operation, I bought some pain relievers and ice cream.
