Jason Mraz Live in Manila 2013

I still have syndrome of Jason Mraz Live concert at Araneta Coliseum and since I don’t want to forget the experience let me share it to you.

It was my little bro who push me to buy a ticket for this concert. I guess this is included on his bucket list and Yes! He is a big fun of Jason! In-spite of heavy rains and long queue lines, we went to see Jason Mraz performed live at Araneta Colliseum last May 14 2013. 

Jason brought along a full band consist of nine talented musicians/performers with him. A double bassists, drummer, violinist, pianist, and other more.  The concert was upbeat and lively. Jason did not only showcase his voice but also his dance move:)
 
   Opening act was Zendie, perform 6 songs and the only thing that I remember is “Go the Distance and   
   “Hallelujah” song. There was a 30 minutes idle time as the crew set-up the stage for the main act but     
    when Jason Mraz reappeared on stage, face the exciting audience, blow a kiss and hit his guitar for
the first song of the night…nawala ang antok ko sa kakahintay!
LOVE
                                                                                   
 Jason was wearing a simple black shirt, jeans, sneakers, his trademark fedora hat and a shorter hair which I more like than having that afro, reggae look. The whole band was wearing the blue and white face paint which I don’t know what exactly it symbolized. Baka ito peg na make up nila. Echoz!

The selection of the songs were mostly from his new album and I love how he personalized the lyrics of each songs for the crowd, even saying some Filipino words like, ‘Mabuhay and Salamat po” with his performance of “93 Million Miles” he even said “Thank you for making this place feels like home” oh bet ni kuya maging pinoy! Lol

“Worrying helps. I need to worry a lot more because 90% of things I worry about don’t even happen”
`Jason`
 
 

One thing that I’m happy about more than Jason Mraz is when I turned to look at my little brother and saw him singing along with the music, having a good time. It gives me the feeling that somehow I was a good sister:) for granting his request. He travel thousand miles just to watch Jason.

It was one great concert. People danced and jammed. His powerful words are beyond compare! kaya worth it kahit mahalya ang ticket:)

"Surrender to life itself and you'll just be rewarded with so many things. And I've been rewarded so many"
             times, in so many mysterious ways. So I have no reason to be disappointed with anything.
~ Jason Mraz~

    You are an ideal sib! I wish I could treat my younger sibs to concerts too, but oh well, maybe someday.

    The ticket price was indeed pricey so I didn't bother.

    Hi Sunny (I keep addressing you that, I hope it's your name ;)... I just saw a common friend (Key) and Phioxee who also left a comment on my blog before...

    I don't remember watching a live concert of a famous singer/ band. I think it's a wonderful experience esp. when you had your brother around to share it with you.

    I've heard a lot of good things about Jason aside from his great music.

    Thanks for sharing your experiences here and your pics as well.

    And hey, thanks for the visit on my blog ;)

Gatsby Party!

As always, the anniversary party was held at Republiq club , Resort world Manila .  holding an anniversary party is a great way to recognize the hard working employees and such a great pleasure for me as  a part of the company who worked hard for my bills and other responsibility. lol This time it seems like a song resonates in my head after the party, it feels like a soundtrack in a movie but nevertheless it was a fun night. Kabog ang sarimanok ni ate! Kuya ang war nasa Zamboanga...lost in space ka yata! choz!   lafang galore! ubos ang tassle sa divisoria...winner! very Gatsby vibe! kampay! waley paki alam sina kuya basta tagay lang! gorabels! Live band that complete the Gatsby vibe! accepting my smile award at si kuya parang nasa kanto lang ang peg! pagoda tragedy! Di naman ako kita dito masydo! next party dapat 15 inches na takong ko! riot na! hala cge! shake it to left to the right! Freshness..d...

Disconnected

  The Heritage Hotel and Stock Market Resto (Serendra)  It's not about what you do. It's about who you are.  It's not about who you are right now.  It's about who you could be.  It's not about what could go wrong. It's about what will go right.  It's not about listening. It's about getting up and dancing.    Life is good!  I'd like to apologize for the lack of posts. I'm back and happy:)

Single...love!

I have spent a significant portion of my life watching sappy romantic movies with ideal couple with guaranteed happy ending is such magical thou expected. I know this is terrible but there is something about them that just seem slightly attainable and relatable to our own life. Not all of us have been assigned a Mcdreamy in this lifetime. Yes! I still have a huge crush with Derek Christopher Shepher of Grey's Anatomy. I’m sorry guys. So you’re single because you’re single. It’s not because you weird, fat or you dress like out of nowhere or it’s not because you did not promptly follow the love chain letter instructions that you have to send it to 20 people close to you. You’re not single because your standards are way too high. It’s good to have standard at least you know what you like.  You’re not single because you did not learn enough from your past relationship or go out on a Friday night after work and have a bottle of beers with your guy office mates instead you ...
