What A Lovely Week And Other Brouhahas

This week, for me, is considered a very special one. And yes, since I am an entirely private person when it comes to more personal reasons, I'm afraid I need not to share it with you guys! But I'm still going to share some things that happened to me, to my family, to my friends and to each and everyone of us this week. While I am listening eagerly and wholeheartedly to my super love, Adele with her live rendition of my newest joy and temptation, Set Fire To The Rain, I'll be giving to you some brouhahas!

VALENTINES DAY 2012 - And I celebrated it according to my taste and distinction. I don't really know how will I make it. It just so happened that I bought seven roses and I gave to my seven beautiful friends (you know who you are, ladies!). I was going to the canteen during that time when two of my best friends stopped me and told me if I could buy flowers to them since they didn't have their Valentinos. That day was also the Teacher's Day celebration so our own SBO put up a booth for the students and to the teachers. Here's the way how did I give the roses to my friends: I went to the High School Department and five of my friends are luckily all there. I was waiting for the other teachers to go out of the faculty because it was way too embarrassing (do you imagine me doing this? I don't think so!). Then, after other people went away, I told them that I'll be singing to them a song. Intentionally, I said that I would sing to them a song of Adele entitled Set Fire To The Rain (hahaha, most favorite!) but I gave the flowers while singing the song Flowers by Sweet Female Attitude (I give you flowers, in a pouring rain, living without you is driving me insane. I give you flowers, I make your day, the tears I've cried...). They told me that during that day, I was their Valentino. Beat that, huh! (Hahaha!) And then next, I went to the Grade School Department and good thing, another friend of mine was there. She was busy checking her papers and many people are still inside of the lounge so I waited. After so, I called her and gave my rose to her. I didn't sing to her a song because she was busy. That evening, she sent me a message thanking me for giving her a rose. And of course, the last one was from Saudi Arabia. Through Skype, I gave her the flowers and said her appreciation. And we started our conversation, together with my best buddy. Originally, I only wanted to buy two roses, just for the two of them, but then I remembered I needed to give seven, and that was it. I know for a fact that they will never ever imagine me giving flowers to a girl, but to be so true to myself, it was really from my heart how much I love them as my friends. Yes, friends, is there anything else??? Hahahaha!

THE VOW VS. UNOFFICIALLY YOURS - Love is in the air at the moviehouses. By tomorrow, I will be watching The Vow starring Channing Tatum and my super favorite Rachel McAdams. If only I could have someone to be with me, sharing a seat at the movie theater and watching this beautiful flick, but reality check, I don't have (sounds bitterness!). Anyways, it is a story of a couple in which they met an accident. The wife (played by Rachel) started to have an amnesia and incidentally, she could only remember what happened on her five years before the accident. Sadly, her marriage to her husband (played by Channing) was not part of her memories. Now, how could that be? Interesting right! And also Unofficially Yours starring Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz. The story has the same concept with another romantic flick 500 Days of Summer, but the thing is, their relationship started with a one night stand. John Lloyd's character is so much in love with Angel's character but the latter is not really into the former. The question from the trailer, do relationships really need an official status? I don't know because I never had one. For me, I would of course have to have a status in our relationship, but you should not put it on Facebook to shout it loud!

BACKSTAGE AND ALL - Our Grand Music Recital of our institution was really a successful one. The kids were really good in their music performance, most especially those who were playing musical instruments. I don't know much about them, but with what they did and what they had were truly amazing. I was only at backstage and tried to listen to their pieces and they were all the best! I just remembered something about the backstage of the Insular Life Auditorium and I'm afraid I can't share it to you! Leave it to me! Anyways, the kids were truly inspiring and if only I could try to put on a special power and try to
beat them using my ability to play musical instruments and to have a very beautiful voice.

ADELE IS LOVE, LOVE IS ADELE - I am a true blue fan of Adele right now. She has a very powerful voice, a down-to-earth performer and of course, a very lovely face. Yes, we know that Adele has a gaining weight but, as what I feel right now, I don't care! And we don't care if we're big. I only love some of her songs and not all of it, but it still pinches me to buy her album, 19 and 21 and her newest, Live at Royal Albert Hall. I heard her very first song through Ellen and she sang Chasing Pavements (should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements!). To be so honest with you, I don't know the meaning of some of her songs but her literature makes it a bit interesting to tune into. Set Fire To The Rain is my next love (but there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew... all the things you say, they were never true, never true... all the games you've played, you would always win, always win...). I also love Turning Tables (next time I'll be braver, I'll be on my own savior when the thunder calls for me... next time I'll be braver, I'll be on my own savior standing on my own two feet). I don't know what turned me to love Adele. Aside from winning six Grammys (and that includes the major awards, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Album of the Year). Way to go, my love! How I wish you could visit the Philippines and delight me and the rest of your million fans here with your music! And for this time, I would say and suggest that I'll never be considering this as a talks**t!!!

Here you go Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm proud and happy to say that I am inspired, I mean, my brouhahas!!!

Toodles!!!

Let me give you the lyrics of my favorite Adele song, Set Fire To The Rain


I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet

But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.


[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing is better


'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.

[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Where it felt something die
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!

Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.

[Chorus:]
I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
Where it felt something die
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, oh, ohhhh!

Oh noooo
Let it burn
Oh oh ohhhh
Let it burn
Oh oh ohhhh
Let it burn
Oh oh ohhhh
