Sa MGa in-love dyan!


Sa MGa in-love dyan!, originally uploaded by bobotsky.

I was on a freeway near UC Berkeley with a friend driving towards the Bay Area when this song popped from "the wave" smooth jazz station.

The song stuck in my mind and for years I was clueless as to who sang it and what title or album was it on. Until 6 years after when I was listening in a jazz station in Reno, NV. Luckily, the jock mentioned about the details of the song! Internet was still in its infancy then Google wasn't even a word then.

Then I moved to Los Angeles. After some years of ukay ukay with all the garage sales around the hood, the CD album came to fore.

Taaadaaa!

In honor of the song, I made a crude simple video for the song.

I hope you like it.

barkada; late eighties


barkada; late eighties, originally uploaded by bobotsky.

di ko matandaan kung kailan kinunan ang picture na to. Malamang, late Eighties 'to. or 1990. Sira ulo talaga tong si Jim. Taena, group picture e, may itinatagong bote ng beer ang damuhong.
Pero bilib ako sa pagka-seryoso nitong si Mon, di maantig sa pagkakatitig sa camera.
mabuhay ka, Mon!

I always get goose bumps every time I see this picture. I'm not sure if I'm going to crack a good laugh or cry for how times freaking flies! I miss those days. Looking this picture makes me want to remember how I felt at that time. How life was with my parents, classmates and everything around me.

Behind us is our school church which is still around - Espiritu Santo Church. the building is very much the same, though they made some alterations/additions which to me defaces the structure.

kakakilabot.
