The first set of shows for Summer of 42 this weekend is done. It has been quite thrilling and exhausting at the same time. And since it has been awhile since I last did any production, I missed the exciting rush of doing a show.

I’ll share a few photos from our show. All these were taken by Jorja Hung.

Looking back at the month and so, all that have transpired seems quite surreal. I would have never expected to...

This is just one of the things that have kept me really busy for the past month or so. See me sing, dance and play the eccentric Gloria, 40s style! And after quite a long hiatus from being on stage, I’m finally doing a production with BlueREP! Oh the joy of working with the cast and crew…

I just came from BlueREP pictorials. Yes. After two years of theatre hiatus, I finally auditioned for a BlueREP production. I’ve thought about it a lot before trying out, and even went out of my way to ask my parents for permission. I did that because if ever I do get in, I will have to devote school nights of June for rehearsals. It can be pretty tough for someone who lives in Makati like I do. Fortunately after my amazing persuading skills, they both finally agreed to it. It is my last year after all. Before I lock myself...

I am reeling. Reeling from one of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen.

I’m not really hard to please when it comes to movies, because I usually try to find something positive about it. But this time, I’m just going to rave incessantly about how much I enjoyed my pre-Valentine’s Day movie. (Actually, I just said that for the sole reason that I just watched it now, a day before Valentine’s Day. And no, it’s not some sort of date, as I happily watched it alone before I finally start with my Philo102 long test.)

I was fortunate enough to have the chance to usher for Atlantis’ Avenue Q last Friday with some of my BlueREP friends.

I really can’t express how much I loved the show because there are simply no words. I enjoyed it that much. It’s definitely one of the smartest, funniest, most fun musicals I’ve ever listened to, and to see it finally live was spectacular. The cast was just perfect. Felix, Rachel, Aiza, Frenchie, Joel did such a wonderful job to the characters.

After days of some serious downpour, the weather has finally calmed. And I know it’s pretty selfish to say that I wish it was still raining, especially with all the serious damage it can do, but I can’t help but long for more days of rest. Today, I woke up a little less enthusiastic to be greeted by a much brighter sky. Luckily, I was able to sleep for a little bit more than eight hours. That felt good.

Once again, the week came by way too swiftly. And because I have so many things to prepare and accomplish, I hardly...

Alas, I failed to finish my Blogathon duties. I was initially excited about it, but I just couldn’t continue blogging everyday. I blame it on the fact that there were just days that I was computer and internet deprived. So that is a good excuse, right? High School Musical took most of my time during the past week too. The experience was great, and I never knew I could have so much fun just being an FOH. It was one responsibility that I’m glad I took which turned out to be one helluva learning experience. No regrets.
