What Happened To Me?

This is something really big. I apologize for having not updated this blog. Anyhoo, I am going now to narrate what had happened for over a week.

Last last Saturday evening, I stayed at my cousin's house where my grandmother is to accompany her. That time, I enjoyed watching Kill Bill Vol. 1 at Cinema One as part of my weekend movie watching. The next day, while I was at S.I.R. Matina, I waited for a text message from Gerissa to confirm an invitation from Sheena. That Sunday is the latter's debut. I was having a hard time to contact Gerissa because of my network provider's changes (on prepaid credits). Later in the afternoon, I spent another dollar for a SmartLoad, though it's painful on my post since I've already spent too much for prepaid credits.

I was at the Celebration Church attending a church service when I texted Gerissa again. She said that they were already bound to go at Sheena's new residence in Buhangin. I complained through text on why she did not inform me anything about the debut. Then, at the end of the service, I hurriedly decided to go at Buhangin, without informing Pastor Kenny. Thankfully, I was able to arrive at the place I've never been thanks to a concerned co-passenger. And I've met the debutant.

Her debut was simple yet fun. It was a bit of a reunion of some of my batchmates. Oh, I missed them funny jokes and the laughs! I was delighted to see Sheena on her gown, accepting her 18 roses, 18 treasures and 18 hearts - a new addition to the list of 18s because Sheena loved hearts. Behind her happiness was a sort of loneliness after discovering that our beloved Teacher Judith was attacked by a mild stroke lately. But all is fine. We all went home late.

My week entirely is summarized in this phrase: butterflies in my stomach. Our Monday evening was dedicated to a talent dev under Sonny B.. one of our Mix FM seniors. Then by the middle of the week, I had my shoot for the second episode of the segment Gizmos and Gadgets Southern Style where I got to talk to known people in the photography business. They were Jojie Alcantara (lifestyle columnist of SunStar Davao), Rhonson Ng (owner of Rhonson Ng Photography) and Dexter Tan (founder of Fanatics Photographers Society). I was feeling nervous along the way, but I managed. Except for one thing: my face. Sonny B. noticed that I wasn't smiling during my interviews. I should have been.

My weekend was mostly spent at the house of my cousin to accompany my grandmother there. This time, I watched X-Men: The Last Stand - the movie I've been dying to see after the first 2 X-Men's. I wasn't able to go to church last Sunday because I was broke. However, my cousin gave a little amount of money so I could go home.

Monday and Tuesday was back-to-work days. We had another session of talent dev with George Booke. I enjoyed as well my boardwork because I had callers, chatters and texters. Later in the evening, I was able to see my old friends Fling-Fling and Joy. Because of that, I arrived home by 11 P.M., caught in the rain. After all, it was happy.

However there is something that bothers me. Sheena texted me last goodbye last night about something she wanted to share to me. A gossip, maybe. I declined because I am busy of something. After that, she did not reply.:'(

During My Two-Day Absence

Last Thursday, everything just felt normal, though I felt sick that time. In the afternoon, I jammed with some DJs and listened to Crimson's rock show for the first time. My whole Friday was spent at my house. I felt lonely because Kuya Leo already left.

I went to work today. I am planning to visit grandma today...

Meeting For The Next Episode

While George Booke was hosting the Midweek Countdown at the booth, we stayed upstairs to talk about our next episode segment-wise. Our headwriter, Andi, talked to us segment writers on what to talk feature in the next episode of Southern Style. As for myself, I am to feature digicams and gaming consoles. Tough ones!

Four-Day Absence To Blogging

My apologies. These past few days had been so busy for me I can't insert a second to blog for a while. Here we go with what happened four days ago.

Last Saturday, I together with Sam, my former classmate in college(but not now due to some financial problems), and her boyfriend, went to Chloe's wedding held at The Farm@Carpenter's Hill somewhere in Marbel, South Cotabato. The bride told me to go to their house in Davao for their van would deliver us at the wedding venue. We departed by 6:30 AM and arrived at the place at around 10 AM. It was just a simple garden wedding. After the luncheon, we hurriedly left due to fear of arriving in Davao by the evening. Thankfully, I reached my house by 5 PM. Not bad.

The next day, I felt a little bit ill after the exhausting journey from Davao to Marbel. Yet I still manage to wake up early and go to Mix for a boardwork. When I arrived at the station, Marvin told me that it's going to be Erin who'd do the 9 AM - 12 NN slot. Then I realized there was a new boardwork schedule for the DJs. But I am still happy I was able to see Marvin for the last time. He was to leave to leave by the next day for a job offer in Manila. I stayed at my cousin's house at S.I.R. Matina after some net surfing in the net station to visit my grandma. There I remained and slept until the evening.

I woke up Monday for a great change. I was transferred to 3-6 PM slot, Marvin's time. I wasn't used to it, really. But I still manage. By 6 PM we had our weekly talent dev with George Booke where we talked about copywriting for commercials that time.

Yesterday, I did the 9 AM-12 NN slot at Mix. I stayed there until 4 PM. Sonny, one of our senior DJs, gave some pieces of advice during Drew's boardwork. I visited grandma at S.I.R. Matina again to ask some money because our pay wasn't given yet.

This morning, I went to Bryan's house for our weekly about-Jesus session. Before that I had my first hotdog breakfast, since these past few days I am used anymore to having a brunch than breakfast. It gave me some stomach ache. Now, I get the importance of breakfast.

Tiring

Yesterday afternoon was Drew's turn for Health And Fitness Southern Style. I accompanied him to his shoot at Oroderm Hotel on his 'facial' episode. By eight in the evening, I decided to visit my grandma at my cousin's house in S.I.R. Matina and sleep overnight. Upon arriving thereat, they served me dinner composed of rice and fried egg white - my first time to have such.

I woke up early to talk to Joey during the morning show. I found out that Joey was not there and it's only Sonny. Ugh! I will not be able to tell her that I would be absent for my tomorrow's boardwork, making way for the wedding of Chloe, my friend. Instead, I observed George Booke, our talent dev master, on his boardwork.

I went back to my cousin's house for lunch and had some little sleep due to some inconvenience last night regarding my bed. I went back to Mix again to confirm Drew's presence tomorrow in behalf of me and Stephanie's approval on some changes of our schedule.

Almost Late For The Morning Show

Yeah. It was 5:59 AM on our DTR. I was able, however, to punch in for the show that starts at 6 PM. I felt I did not have any fun this morning because of the flaws I made. I am talking about of my adlibs that's ugly. Very ugly. I felt down because I think I will not be able to become a good DJ.

I watched American Idol last night. It was really good, despite of Ramiele Malubay's absence. She is my bet to win the title for this season. The remaining idols did their best. I like the performances of Syesha, the 2 Davids and Jason. I am excited for tonight's Idol Gives Back.

At Last The Day Has Ended

We just finished our shoot for the Gizmos and Gadgets Southern Style. Finally, I am able to breathe properly now.

Sick

Yesterday, after the morning show, I had this sick feeling. Maybe it has something to do with me being broke by that morning. I texted my father who's a farmer to ask money. I got some sleep, thankfully. Then, I woke up with a text message around 2 PM from Rhea, my co-DJ, telling me that we'll start our segment shoot for Southern Style today. That gives me a lot of butterflies in my stomach. This will be my first time to be on TV and to make a segment for such. I am pressured.

Later that evening, I received a small amount from Papa. He advised me to budget money wisely because these days are hard days. Rice price increases - it's alarming. After that little and uplifting sermon, I watched some TV. I watched an indie movie at ABC, then some Wow Mali! and Good Times with Mo, Mojo, Andi-9 and Grace Lee. It was really fun. Last night's episode of Reporter's Notebook is excellent. It made me think of myself becoming a reporter and showing whatever is inside my notebook. I love documentaries so much! Unfortunately, it is shown on late evenings.

This morning, I woke up with a head ache from sleeping late. But I need to go to work.

I Can't Sleep

I just finished watching SNBO's Halloween Resurrected on GMA. But I still I can't sleep. Huhuhu.

No Biggie!

After my boardwork last Saturday, Drew followed next. We had a little talk about ourselves, being a DJ. I discovered that he really wants to become a good DJ. Even the best. He wants to prove something. And it's a secret for the both of us.

My Sunday was dedicated to a whole lot of relaxation, since our shooting for my Southern Style's Gizmos N' Gadgets segment was put on hold for a while. Joey and Dax have to talk pa on the equipments. I watched some TV(whatta great Invasion: Philippines Vs. Mexico boxing fight). Then later in the afternoon, I went to go to Celebration Church. The sermon was all about contentment.

Nervous

Last night, I went to The Venue as a request by our boss-slash-mommy, Joey, and Marvin. It was my first time. I had a great time with my fellow DJs. But, deep inside, I was a bit nervous because I will be the first to have a shoot for my segment in "Southern Style". You know, I had no wardrobe and it's my first time to have a TV appearance. I am conscious on myself, being non-telegenic.

I brought the heavy burden until I had my boardwork today. I am thankful that those were lessened when Ate Mae, our payroll master, talked to me about stuffs in my school and Drew, my co-DJ, did IM me, feeling bad on him appearing on TV. Yeah! We share the same problem.

Quite Busy

After I was being treated by the "Hometown Heroes"(I am referring to Sonny and Joey), I stayed in the whole day at MIX. Wait! I as well met Monalyn at an internet cafe when I was out for a while to take some lunch. By 3 PM, I joined Marvin on his show. I realized that he is going to leave MIX na for a better job opportunity. Of course, he is with me when I first entered MIX. Marvin is irresistibly friendly. He became close to me, so leaving is really a hard task to do.

I went now at MIX for a meeting about "Southern Style". I tried to finalize my script. But I haven't yet.

Gone For Two Days

I apologize for having not updated this for two days. It's just that I did not get any time to squeeze in blogging in my internet hours due to some temporary memory loss. I was thankful because I received my allowance hours after since my last post. I stayed long for the My Mix show with Andi. Marvin was also there.

Yesterday, I had the morning show. Just when I was about to end our show(I was with Queenie), I saw Sonny, the original host of the morning show. OMG! I just got nervous in an instant. But it was good. I went after to Bryan's house for some about-Jesus session again. I came back to the station for our meeting about our first episode for the Southern Style. I had a little chitchat(and good food) with the other DJs, including Sonny who had believed that I was afraid of him. By the evening, I watched American Idol, my favorite reality show.

This morning, I observed Sonny and Joey's tandem for the morning show. They are both good - from the music to the adlibs. They treated me as well for some breakfast. That is the best part.

Hungry

I did not receive my allowance yesterday, though I am supposed to. I was a bit worried last night because there's none in my pocket but unnecessary papers. I tried to open my wallet and planned to get my last money: P10 bill(which is a bit elusive these days). Until I found something bulky. I realized that I saved P60! God is so good! I burst into tears. Despite my disobedience and badness, He still provides. I promised Him that I am going away the bad ways. I hope I could go away from it through His help.

I woke up early and managed to come early to my work. I did 9 AM-12NN slot. I am so happy because I got listeners abroad through our audio streaming. I got an advice from Joey that I can be a better DJ if I could use a word once in my every adlib. That's my weakness. I am still happy with it. I take it as a constructive criticism.

Yeah. Hungry I am. I had no decent dinner last night and breakfast today. I just hope I could get my allowance now.

Not So Fine

My Sunday was great! I am so happy that I was able to attend church service at Celebration Church. It had been a while since the last time I went to church. And I feel renewed. I shook hands with Pastor Kenny - he said he was so happy to see me. I am feel blessed by God.

I am broke now. But I think I can handle this. I hope. Today is a bit crazy day, considering that we actually had our nosebleed-causing talent dev. As usual, lagi na lang ako ang nagiging example as the worst DJ.
