Virgin Labfest 4: Kapamilya, Kapuso, Kabisyo

Start:     Jul 6, '08 3:00p
Location:     Tanghalang Huseng Batute, CCP
June 26 (TH) – 3PM/8PM

July 5 (SAT) – 8PM

July 6 (SUN) – 3PM



Hase Hiroichi’s Amoy ng Langit

Directed by Toshiisa Yoshida

Featuring Mailes Kanapi, Martha Comia, Ana Deroca, Mica Froilan and Tara Cabaero

Ghosts are known to roam the world of the living because of unfinished business. This small and simple play about suicide, leaving and death happens on the rooftop of a school where no one is allowed to loiter. Yet a spirit manages to reconnect before finally heading “home.”




Layeta Bucoy’s Las Mentiras de Gloria

Directed by Tuxqs Rutaquio

Featuring Bart Guingona and May Bayot

Gloria, whose cancer kills her, appeals to her fraternal twin Utoy, to whom she appears as a bleeding ghost, to maintain the lies that she has been spreading to her faculty colleagues in the university. Utoy is compelled to obey by forced guilt and a macabre 'umbilical' connection. But beneath these secrets and lies are more secrets and lies and it seems the death of Gloria, no matter how sanitized, would only leak their foul stench even more.



Carlo Garcia’s Ang Mga Halimaw

Directed by Paolo O'Hara

Features JK Anicoche, Amihan Ruiz, Kristine Balmes, Alvin Obillo, Nar Cabico, Isab Martinez, Mara Marasigan,Philip Evangelista and Oscar Garcia

Small time criminals think big like their bosses. In this car scene, drama effectively unfolds with strange bedfellows for characters and a wonderful poetic wit that speaks the language of the damned. These murderers, who include an Operadang Bakla, a Taxi Drayber and a Lalaking May Pakpak make for one short glimpse of surreo-realism.


Tickets to the Virgin Labfest are at P200 for main exhibition sets, P100 for the symposium and "Pay What You Can" for play readings.



For more details, please contact Tanghalang Pilipino at 832-3661, or the CCP Box Office at 832-3704.

English Breakfast for Dinner at Bakit masarap kumain ng Ice Cream kapag malamig

It has been raining all day. DTR for Labfest was cancelled. Whew.

Mother took advantage of it and made a scrumptious English breakfast for dinner. Each plate had two pieces of bacon, hotdog (sausage alternative), bits of onions, half tomato and hash browns topped with fried egg sunny side up. Oh yeah!

Ang sarap. Sayang nga lang at hindi namin nakunan. Naubos na namin yung pagkain nung bigla kong naisip na kunan yung mga plato. Mama's cooking is the best.

For dessert, she made apple crumble with vanilla ice cream. Oh Mama. If I do move out, I'll really miss Mama's cooking. Oh yeah.

----------------------

Yun nga, may Ice cream. Nang magsimula ang tag-ulan, parang gusto ko na lang kumain ng kumain ng ice cream. Kahit na ngangatog na ako sa lamig, gusto ko pa rin ng ice cream.

Oh Ice cream.

Internship - Week Two and Things you do for a P1000

This week was quite busy. We spent most of our time preparing the copies of proposals for the SPCC Executive Committee. We practically filled the conference room with photocopies, binders, stickers and labels. I get to read some of the proposals. I'll keep my comments to myself. Nyuk nyuk nyuk!

I finally took the placement exam to determine what course I should take. Lv got promoted automatically from level 5 to level 7 due to a change in the curriculum. The last level I passed at Instituto was level 5 years ago. I was a bit anxious about the exam because I wasn't able to review really well and my vocabulary is really awful. I tried to review by the last minute.

The exam had 100 questions from really basic "my name is blank" to complicated preterito combinations. Yung tipong duduguin ka pagkatapos. We were only given 30 minutes to answer.

Inisip ko na lang na kung malampasan ko ang level 5, e di masaya. Pero kung hindi, okay lang. Baka talagang kelangan ko ng review sa mas mababang level.

I was only able to answer 30 questions. After a few minutes, the facilitators were done checking. And then, taran!!!!! Level 8 daw ako. Ahahahahahaa.

I was practically laughing on my way back to the office. Nalampasan ko pa si Lv. Hahahaha. Pero sayang, walang klase para sa level 8. Kaya sa level 7 na lang daw ako. Puwede na! Hoot! Hoot!

So, our classes start tomorrow morning and I'm really really excited to the maximum level.

And oh, I think I'll tell Lalin that I am really interested with SPCC work. Hmmm....specialization...
--------------------------------

Rehearsals for labfest are getting intense. Tapos na kaming magblock at nagsisimula na kaming mag-run. Saan ka pa? Early bird awardee!

My knees look like knees of an abused child. Hahaha. Ang dami kong pasa. Yung iba alam ko galing sa kakaluhod sa rehearsal. Yung iba naman, hindi ko alam. Nabunggo ata yung iba. Hahaha.

Noong Thursday, wala kaming rehearsal gawa ng may raket si JK. At dahil wala ngang rehearsal, nakiraket rin kami. Nagpaka-yuppy kami. Mga extra na walang ginawa kundi kumain. Masaya naman yung raket dahil lahat kami magkakakilala. Pati si Leeroy naki extra din. Hahaha.

Mabuti din at kinuha kami ni JK. Dahil omigulay, wala akong pera at nagplano na akong pumunta ng Penguin ng Friday. Kung sakaling wala yung isang libo galing kay JK, magpapakagutom ako ng buong linggo.

Noong Sabado naman, naki-epal ako sa raket ni Leeroy. PD daw ako kunwari. Hahaha. Kinabukasan, kami na naman ang magkasama papuntang Lucena. Kasama sina Alyx, Eisa, NIna, nag-adventure kami papuntang Lucena. Masaya naman. Buti na rin sa isang libo, nagsurvive kami sa byahe.

Naikot ata namin ang buong Laguna. Sumakit rin ang pwet dahil nasa koste kami for more than 10 hours na biyahe. Kawawa si Leeroy na wala pang tulog at nagmaneho para sa amin.


Kaya heto kami ngayon. Walang pansinan. Tulog muna tayo.

Para kay Eisa

Sa usapang perm at massage, kung maalala mo pa.


It's that time of the month and I can't do anything about it
unless if I have someone or if I'm okay with anyone
But I don't have someone
and I don't want anyone.



Mabuhay tayo Secret Lover!
