feel young

Chillin' at home can take its toll. In other words, i'm bored today. Just when I was able to find something to do and someone to talk to, my sister calls and insist I accompany them (she was with her blockmates) on their little "outing." I protested at first, explaining that I was low on funds. She quickly killed my reason by saying she's going to pay for my expense... how gallant. In the end, I had to relent and agree to join them. Actually, my sister invited me in the first place coz i was older and I was accustomed to the area that she wanted to see, and I remember more detail than her, plus there was also the fact that I can chauffer... I was supposed to join them at around 1900h but that rendezvouz turned into 2130h. By the time we left, it was already 2200h. Clarisse (my sis), Tasha and Therese (the blockmates) decided to go watch a live band. I suggested Siete Pecados at the Westin Philippine Plaza, since the Octoberfest thing at Bluewave that was their first choice, was well, crowded like sardines. We got there, half-way through the performance of the second band, Hyperbeat. I ordered the drink of the month, which meant, I get the the teddy bear named spooky in a witch halloween costume. Hyperbeat's music was fast and danceable, much to the delight of the ateneans (im from UST, go figure). They danced until the band had to take a break and the other band got ready for their second set. I've seen Hyperbeat perform before, but this other group, Ministix, was a mystery for me. He was gay. The lead singer for the other band was gay and he calls himself Jigger. He was quite amusing and very good at spiels, he carried the whole group through their final set. Jigger was so gay, it was a great performance. By this time, Love, the other blockmate, was able to get her ass to Westin to join her friends. Hyperbeat's last set was also a blast, filled with charged music and dancing. There were a few foreigners around, so you could see all the filipinas working their magic, if you know what i mean. I missed watching bands like this, and I'm happy I went along. You know what the best part was? It was all free!
