Normalcy

Habang ang mga tao ay nanunuod nito...



Ako'y nakikipag rubbing elbows sa mga shala sa RCBC Plaza dahil dito...


The first time na nakapanuod ako ng musical sa RCBC Plaza ay noong ipinalabas ang ZsaZsa Zaturnah.

Ngayon social climbing mode nanaman ako. This event is organized by a group of Psychiatrists from MMC. Di po ako patient, plus 1 ako ng isang kaibigan. (defensive ba?)

This Pulitzer Prize & Tony Award - winning musical about a dysfunctional family trying to survive each day is carried by a strong and engaging cast of characters.

A bipolar mother, a resentful daughter, a mysterious son and a father that tries to hold this family together.

The bipolar mother, Diana is played by Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo, she gave a powerful performance and made the audience laugh and cry.

Jett Pangan played Dan, the father who has beautiful character development that goes from a man trying to be strong enough to hold his family to a broken grieving father.

Gabe, the son is played by Felix Herrera - he seduce you with his charm - lalo na sa shirtless scene ;) - naging  earworm sa akin ang song niyang "I'm Alive," --- wala akong makitang picture niya :(

Bea Garcia as the daughter Natalie, has a clear beautiful voice. She grabbed my attention when she sang "The Invisible Girl", naka relate ako.

Siempre di ko makakalimutan si Markki Stroem ang pothead na love interest ni Natalie.

Drs. Fine and Madden is played by Jake Macapagal. The scene where the Dr became a rock star during Diana's hallucination is so hilarious.



The cast are so good that you can feel raw emotions through their songs.

Being normal is overrated.

Social Climbing Mode: Sofitel



Plus 1 ako ni Martian sa kanyang convention ngayon dito sa Sofitel. Naawa kasi ang lolo due to my very stressful week (ito ay dahil sa maraming incident reports -I really need to fire this staff!- at super emoterang mga consultants). 

Umagang umaga nagtext na si Martian to confirm our weekend getaway at siempre di na ako nagpapilit isang malaking YES ang textback ko. 

Dumating ako sa hotel ng past past 17:00, at nagmeet kami ni Martian sa Spiral, sosyal ang lolo ko. Anyway, dahil pagod ako (may shooting ang isang teledrama ng siete sa work at nakikipagpatentero ako sa crew nila para matapos ang trabaho ko ng maaga) nag request ako na umakyat na sa room para magpahinga. Ito ang bumungad sa akin pagpasok sa room...

Nawala ang pagod ko instead nagdocumentation ako. Picture galore!

ako, gusto ko sana mag alis ng damit pero baka ma umay kayo

sa "loo", may only complaint is walang tub - artey ko no? libre n nga mareklamo pa!

pero ng makita ko ang beauty products...
gumana ang pagka skwala ko, take a bath agad ang lola, first time ko kasing makakagamit ng skin care from L' Occitane en Provence...

the closet, siempre naka hang ang  a& f kung shirt na galing divisoria

di ko alam kung anong tawag sa areang ito, basta may small ref at mga chocolates, dahil may bayad, picture na lang :)

day bed ata tawag dito

Ito ang view sa terrace, di ko maalala ang landmark na yan, ang alam ko maraming nagbuwis ng buhay diyan. 

Skyline ng Makati, from  the terrace

Anyway ng makontento ako, nagset up agad ako ng work station. Linabas ang mga gadgets. Meet my laptop, I christened her Ferosiya. Meet Padida, my ipad, na ang laman ay puro pang raket na flash cards at ebooks. Lastly my, mobile, no name kasi chipangga hahaha. Ang mobile ko ay bigay ni Martian nung mawala ko ang regalo niyang sony ericson phone.

Social Climbing mode - Pagnuod ng Varekai!



Kaninang hapon, nagpunta kami ni Martian sa Luneta para manuod ng Varekai.

Ako'y madaling mabighani sa mga taong drool worthy ang physique. At ang cast ng Varekai ay pasok na pasok sa mga tipo kong guys.

This is my first time to watch cirque live and it was a jaw dropping experience. 

Ako'y napanganga sa flexibility and control ni Icarus. I'm so in awe, nangingilid ang luha ko habang pinapanuod siyang lumipad. I'm so enthralled with his performance, with the acrobatics grabe I'm completely gobsmacked!

My penultimate favorite performance is the aerial straps, where 2 men were flying. It was erotic may gulay tinagasan ako habang pinapanuod silang lumipad. I'm totally aroused and mesmerized.

The ending was a bravura of athleticism and exuberance. Naku kung may budget pa ako nais ko ulit mapanuod ito kasi, I feel like I missed a lot (no thanks to the annoying kids sa likod namin!)

Kung may budget kayo wag niyong papalagpasin ang Varekai.

Hanggang dito na lang muna...

Salsa!
