An alternative Violinist


I'm practicing violin all by myself since I can't remember when and I'd say all I want is to play music on it. hehe..

Anyways I went to YOUTUBE to check my finger placement for Suzuki methods and I came across a virtuoso which I think has a better playing style than Vanessa Mae. She's known as sori1004jy and as I was watching her videos I found out that her real name is Ji Yeon and base from the name I'd say that she's Korean.

My goodness, I wish someday I could be as good as her eventhough I'm playing the violin for recreation. I guess, my fault was I didn't start playing the violin when I was little that's why it's too hard for me to do finger placement; anyways, if anyone is reading this blog I guess you could visit her at YOUTUBE or just click the link below:


Ji Yeon (sori1004jy)


She's absolutely amazing, you'll adore her. :D

An Unexpected Reunion


Today, I went to Trinoma to do some errands and some shopping. After Trinoma, I felt that it was too early for me to go home since it's only 3 something PM and then I remembered that Raunche and Gladys were hitting the gym today so I told them that I'll just wait for them at the coffee shop in SM to have some catching up. Raunche told me that they will be there 'til 6PM so I don't actually mind waiting since it wasn't actually a planned meeting, it was just "biglaan". So I got at the coffee shop at 4PM, drank some coffee and saw some of our old HS Batchmates in the nearby pizza parlour but I didn't approach them 'coz I'm shy and I'm not really close to all of them except for my close friends Bea and Rea.

After Bea and Rea's meeting with our other batchmates they went to my table and accompanied me for awhile. While we were chatting Bea spotted Mark (our HS classmate and friend) and then he saw Bea in return. So Mark went to our table and talked to us for the time being when he mentioned that Ria and Sofia were also at the mall! What a coincidence. Mark knew though that Ria and Sofie were at the mall so he just texted them to let them know that we're gonna wait for them at the coffee shop.

It was really an unexpected meeting 'coz I only planned to meet up with Raunche and Gladys. So afterwards, Mark texted Sofie and Ria and yet Raunche arrived first before them, which usually happens when Sofie/Ria decides to scout the whole mall; haha; and then Raunche told me that they were with Rhayan. I thought wow there so many of us in the mall in an unexpected day. Then I remembered that Dra. Lei (our dentist friend) was working at a dental clinic in the mall. So I asked Mark to text Doc Lei so we can meet up. And then Adrian (Gladys's BF and also our friend) called me to let me know that he's actually looking for me at the coffee shop and he too was surprised on how many of us were already there. It was a bunch of silly meet ups and in the end there were at first 13 of us. Me, Bea, Rea, Mark, Randell, Raunche, Adrian, Lei, Jerald, Ria, Sofia, Gladys and Rhayan. After we were completed we decided to eat dinner since it really was an unexpected meeting and we were all excited to talk to each other and our stomachs were already grumbling; but, before we ate, Bea and Rea were already gone to, I guess, shop at the mall.

We decided to eat at Gerry's Grill and when the "Abreceas" were withdrawing they happen to bumped with Sarah of Prudence and she was about to go out of work by 9PM so we waited for her and then there's that. The whole point is we get the chance to catch up with each other because the last time that almost all of us meet was in our previous Christmas Party.

It was really fun for all of us and I guess we could say that it's a perfect Unexpected Reunion. Hope it happens again in a couple of months, weeks "pwede na din" hahahahaha...
