Konstrukt: Album Launch

Dekonstrukted: Losing Grip, Winning Balls

In my work, I've always had to satisfy three kinds of people. The customers, the agents, and my bosses. Yesterday I just snapped. I knew that there were only two people in the escalation team and I didn't go to work. All this because a certain bitch couldn't keep her mouth shut. Thanks to you i got some balls to miss work on purpose.

Dekonstrukted: Escalations Team Building at Villa Antonina

Villa Antonina, Baliti, San Fernando, Pampanga: the location for the Escalation Team's Team Building.


When we arrived there, Chicken was still tired from work the day before.


When nighttime came, here's what the place looked like.


The escalation team.

Who would've thought our boss had such a great voice? hehe.

Sup Moe, Paul, Chicken, and "the lovers" arrived there lunchtime coming from work so they just stayed in the bed for well most of the afternoon. We arrived at about 2pm. At 3:30, we were so bored, Paul, Annette, and I decided to hang out at the bar and booze up. After which, Chester arrived, Don following him. Moe and Don went out for food then Allan came. Shortly after, we decided it was time for karaoke. Then boss RJ came. the rest was history.

Nighttime came, we had liempo, roast chicken, pancit and chopsuey. everybody was eager to take a swim. Chicken, The Lovers and I played the game of "Scavenger Hunt" wherein we throw a coin in the middle of the pool then look for it. While Don was being coached for "matters of the heart". We drank San Mig Light (as Red Horse is banned in the resort), sang and chatted the night away until it was time to head home at about 1:00 am. We'll all be back at the hellhole Monday (and Tuesday morning for some people) anyway.

Wake up call

As I woke up at 5:30am, this is what greeted me. Complete with a glass of Red Horse beer.

There's no time better to blog than 4 hours before going to work. My life has become this redundant spur of work, home, then work. I try to squeeze in doing something creative every now and then just to refresh myself, if only to forget being a mindless drone. I allocate my savings on things that I love, such as my recent purchase of the synthesizer that I've always wanted and a table tennis table (didn't i just say redundant?) which I have played since I could remember. Now I'm eyeing a digital SLR which would really help me take better pictures, having studied at the Philippine Center for Creative Imaging (also known as Kodak).

This just in, my cousin (who I made an online portfolio for in a previous post) just became one of the models for Gallery Casting, one of the Philippine's top agencies. Congrats Anne on another one of your dreams come true! I'll get to sleep now, only to be scolded by my boss later. Wish me luck.

Dekonstrukted: Real Fancy Slippers

I think the pictures pretty much says it all.

Rekonstrukted: Karma

This happened as I got home from work. Thanks to mother nature for letting a coconut fall right after I parked the car.

Dekonstrukted: Mixed Messages

The miseducation of the Filipino. Supersized.

These signages could be found at the hallway of my brother's pad.

Konstrukted: The Bacetti Card Ad

Being the official family graphics artist (and a cheap solution at that), my cousin, who manages the salon and is photographed here tasked me to edit the poster for her latest marketing campaign: the Bacetti Card.

God knows why i do these things. :)

Mixing and creating tracks thru FL Studio 7 Producer's Edition



Roland XP-50 Synthesizer


Two weeks ago, I went to Manila, put aside my trust issues and bought a Roland XP-50 Synth thru the net since it was dirt cheap (they retail for about $1,500, got it at $300) and I just had to have it. So I blew my monthly savings for it. The seller was kind enough to tell me it went through the hands of Jay Durias of South Border. Who the f*ck cares if he's lying. I still wanted it.

Since I got my Roland XP-50 and FL Studio 7 Producer Edition I can't stop creating tracks. The genre is mostly electronica/house/hip-hop music. I must admit I can't rap that well, yet. A sanguine album is definitely in the works. I've become a track-tory [track and factory in one, but you knew that...] Watch out for that, if I find the time. I spend almost every after work hours composing/mixing/drilling my brain.
