Love, Music, Angel, Baby..

Sunday night was a blast. JeAr invited me to watch his gig at Kolumn Bar along Timog Ave. JeAr’s band is called Rapeseed. They play hard rock music, and I love it. They sang 5 of their original songs, and if you want to listen to their demos, check them out here. The first band was a reggae band, they were really good, a way to start the night. It was relaxing. The next band was all girls, except for the drummer. They covered No Doubt’s “Spiderwebs” and Alanis Morissette’s “Wake Up”, and they sang 3 original compositions. I actually like their songs and the girl’s voice is strong. Next was Rapeseed, where JeAr played with his bass so well. He’s like making love to it. Lol.
Ryan was with me. He was actually being sweet because I told him at the last minute that I am going to JeAr’s gig and I asked if he wants to come with, and at first he wasn’t sure because he doesn’t have enough budget anymore and he was supposed to have a thing at his grandma’s house. I told him that it’s cool if he can’t go, but what’s really sweet was that he said that it’s not that he doesn’t want to go because he’d do anything just to be near me.
I feel like I am getting mushier by the minute, no wait, by the second! Mushiness and cheesiness irks me, but I guess when you are in a relationship, the feelings that you have inside, you just have to express in words, and when you do, it sounds both mushy and cheesy. Yikes!
I got home really late yesterday morning. Yes, morning. I fell asleep at around 5:30 am, and I had to wake up by 10am to get ready for school. It’s a good thing that my class starts at 12nn. I woke 3 times this morning: at 6:30, 7:45 and 9:45. When I heard my alarm at 10am, I set it off to alarm at 10:30am. When it did, I stayed in bed for another 10 minutes because my body dared not move. It felt so heavy and I woke up with a splitting headache. I was debating with myself if I was going to school or just stay in bed, but, I chose to go.
I arrived at school 5 minutes before time. I sat beside Lexie. We thought Miss Rose wasn’t going to attend class because it took a while before she came in. When she did, she returned our midterm exam booklet. We had some corrections checked out. I had 2, which upped my grade to 98%. *Pats myself at the back* Good job, Dré!
On September 19 to 21 will be our pre-final exams. I have to really do good because I want my dad to see really high grades. It’s important for me that he knows that I am really doing my best and this is where I most excel. I know that he’s proud of me and my talents, I just want to give him proof that it’s all worth it.
Anyway, an old friend of Marvin sent me a message at Myspace. His name is John, and he wants me to hook up their website for Reborn Dance Productions. I am still thinking about it. They’re one of my very first clients. I believe their budget is really tight right now. We’ll work things out, I guess.

Over My Head
Sep 1, 2006 Daily Blurbs, School
I was too lazy to get up early today to go to school, so I got up an hour before class. Wow. Well, I wasn’t late. I got there at exactly 10am but the professor wasn’t there yet. I found my classmates idle and chatting with the others. I only have one class on Fridays, so I was a bit annoyed because the professor arrived and announced that he’s just going to check the attendance while the others do their make up activities. I’m done with all the activities, so Lexie, Melai, Hannah and I decided to go to 7-11 to eat.
After eating, Lexie and Hannah went back to class because they still have Math classes, while Melai and I went to Video City to rents some movies because Ryan is coming over. I rented Underworld 2, Perfect Catch, Derailed and Yours, Mine & Ours.
I got home at 11:30am; Ryan gets off work at 12:30am. I went online because I know he is. So we had a chat at Google Talk. They’re not allowed to have YMs at the office, so that will do. We talked about how he’s going to get here. He’s been here thrice. The first was when he dropped me off from our date and we rode a cab then; the next was when he met my mom and I was with him; and today, when he’s on his own. I had to instruct him what public transportation to ride on and where he should get off.
Only my sister, Juvy and my brother, ZJ were here. He got here at 3pm. He forgot my donuts! I told him to bring me Vanilla flavored ones from Go Nuts Donuts. I am still craving for it. I am actually PMSing, and when I do, I always look for food or drink to devour. I just cooked Sweet and Spicy pancit canton for us to consume. After the merienda, we started watching the movies.
We watched Underworld 2 and Perfect Catch. We haven’t seen both movies. I don’t like watching mushy films with a boyfriend, or a date. When I get mushy feelings inside, I feel so corny, or should I say, it somehow irks me. I guess I’ve become so cynical over the years of not having someone really close.
My mom came home in the middle of Perfect Catch. Of course, they still talked a little. My mom had to use the PC so we just finished the movie. I asked Ryan if he was hungry and he said he was OK. Then after 20 minutes, my mom mentioned if we had dinner yet. It was 7pm. He said that he was hungry. Err… So I pointed out that I asked him already. Anyway, we ate dinner together. Tilapia and rice. I learned something new today. He eats tilapia with ketchup, and I eat mine with vinegar. He also likes pancit canton with bread while drinking coke. It makes me smile knowing that there are still so many things to discover.
After dinner, we went outside the house. Walked along the streets of our village. We stopped by a store and sat at the bench for a while. We talked about us. Well, I initiated the talk. It went like this:
Dre: So, is it always like this for you? You meet a girl, decide you like her and then you end up together?
Ryan: No.
Dre: How am I different then?
Ryan: I just knew it is you. I don’t just like someone, Dre. I want someone who is not just beautiful, but intelligent. Someone whom I can exchange smart conversations with.
Dre: Did you like me before we even had a date?
Ryan: You know, when I gave you my number, I never expected for you to send me a message. But you did, and at that time, I knew that it is you. I was so happy that day.
Dre: Really? Well, I kinda noticed that your text message was full of exclamation points expressing your ecstasy. Hahaha!
Ryan: See? I don’t want to sound corny or cheesy, coz I know you hate cheesiness but, I believe that this is fate and we’re destined to be together. When I hugged you the first time, I knew in my heart that I never want to let you go.
Aww…
I am just full of butterflies in my stomach right now. Man! I am turning into jelly inside. It’s been a LONG time. But still, I don’t want to be too happy. Oh yes, cynicism is my friend. I’m weird that way. Or should I say, I am normal that way.
