thanks to etc channel, i was introduced to an amazing british singer who sings nessun dorma like nothing i've heard before. it was while i was putting away the dishes tonight when i overheard a plug for a certain concert this october, and they played a clip of the guy's performance at a british talent show. apparently, he won the top prize in '07.

so i watched paul potts on youtube, and he was just amazing he brought tears to my eyes. very few people have inspired me with their singing that way. so, i guess am watching in october.

since it's a classical music concert--- something that is not palatable to everyone --- i wondered who i can watch it? somebody who will appreciate the music and whose company i'll also appreciate.

i thought of R who is my friend from my university singing group - but he now has a girfriend and she might mind. ayaw ko namang kasama si girfriend kasi magmumukha akong third wheel.

i thought of D who loves bocelli and is married. I'm not worried about his wife kasi malakas ako dun, pero since ok naman si wife, i'll invite them both. so i won't be a third wheel, i'll invite BFF, who has no choice but to sama me because that's what BFFs do.

i know. (it has been a while!)

well, i had meant to publish here my "acceptance/thank you" speech at the dinner reception hosted by the partners sometime ago (2? 3 weeks ago?) just so you would know that i've not been looking much like a moron since my last post. :)

my sked has been just truly busy and any idle time i have i would rather not spend thinking or writing.

how have you been?

how have i been? things are looking up for me career-wise i think. that is all i can say about my life for now.

my first day at school

so it truly felt just like that. my first partners' meeting was held at 11 am today. i entered the room and saw most of the partners already in their respective seats, chatting. there were 3 reserved seats, not one of which was for me. in other words, i had no seat. i felt trulllly out of place. it was like my first day in UP undergrad. i felt like a complete moron.
