Words of the wise from Grey's Anatomy

"But Alex, we do not get unlimited chances to have the things we want. And this I know. Nothing is worst than missing an opportunity that could've changed your life." Addison, Grey's Anatomy - Season 03 episode 25

US Television Series: Grey's Anatomy

People usually hover over people they are physically attracted to. No one is immune really, even me. Besides, who wouldn't want a pretty thing? If you think you don't then let's put it this way, would you prefer to eat a very appetizing meal or a plain bland one? Attraction is the first step on any relationship whether romantic or platonic and then usually the substance comes next. And it is not far why we choose what we have chosen. What makes us commit more is when we know that we can relate to it.

Back when I was still striving to earn my undergraduate degree, I have already watched Grey's Anatomy up to season 2 but then I don't know what happened but I just stopped. And then, I came up with the news that Dr. George O' Malley had died. I was intrigued and searched on the internet what episode was that. Can't wait for Season 6.


"And then there are some wounds, some betrayals that are so deep, so profound that there was no way to repair what was lost. And when that happens, there's nothing left to do but wait." - Grey's Anatomy Season 3 Episode 9

Bills Payment Posting

Bills Payment Posting
---------------------------

When we finally grow up from a boy to a man and a girl to a woman and if we are in great luck in accomplishing in finishing a degree, the real world now becomes our playground. We're given freedom to pursue what we really want to do and what we want to have.

But alongside with the freedom bestowed upon us comes with power. As cliche as it may sound, "With great power comes with great responsibility". So what does it have to do with our topic for today?

I just want to share something today since I am now carrying a bill under my name (I don't know if I should be saying YAY or NYAY). Kidding aside, I was able to pay it for the first time. It was empowering because it gives you a feeling of independence.

Anyway, before we divert again to another topic I want to tell you about the posting of bills in the Philippines hoping that somehow somewhere someone would find this information useful. I tried to search in the internet but it was not stated when would the payment be posted.

I was able to pay in these payment partners of PLDT. If you're still delaying to pay your due dates, please bear in mind these as per my experience:

• SM Malls - 3 days posting
• Banco De Oro (over the counter payment)- next day posting but date paid is the date when you have paid it
• Online Banking (BPI) - after 24 hours provided you had made it before 10 pm as it will be counted as the next day so the posting would be next, next day.

Korean show: Hidden Singer

Okay. So, how are you. This is to tell you that I'm sooooooooooooo doomed. How's that Korean writers can come up with such good concepts? I'm so jealous. Just when I'm not through with watching King of Masked Singer, I was able to stumble upon Hidden Singer. This is another musical program where audience would try to guess what cubicle is the original singer. It was mind numbing that they can replicate it in the same way as the original. Aside from entertaining, this is a great way to test and train your ear. Have you guessed right?

Here is a sample english subbed version courtesy of Youtube:

King of Masked Singer

Is it just me, or I'm being sucked and left at awe with how brilliant Korean writers are? The concepts they had created makes me want to raise my hands up big time.

I don't know if I'm just biased since I tend to like Korean dramas and quite caught on the Korean wave bug since way back high school but not to the point of obsession. Maybe I am also generalizing early on but do you want me to give you an example? Try watching King of Masked Singer. It is where artists compete with a masked on and sing with it so that the judges and the audience can objectively rate the performance of two artists as we know that popularity and status can change our perception. I was dumbfounded how these artists can modulate their voice into something that isn't them. I guess these were voice projections they were known for.

One thing that I got from this show though I haven't understood one bit in any of the lyrics since they tend to be in Hangeul (Korean language) is that I can feel the emotion in the song.

This had inspired me to aim more at a higher level in terms of music. It set the bar higher for good. I love to sing and watching these clips brought out realizations what I still lacked. I need to improve my skills on how to deliver the song with emotion. Because singing is like story telling.

Sad to say but in the Philippines, people with creative musicality who deserve to have an album don't make the cut. Artists who are popular are given albums though they are not really singers. In the television, singing competitions became biased. As long as you can hit the high notes and came from an impoverished family background, the higher chances that you'll win.

I'm hoping that making of albums will be given to those who really deserved it and not just for profit.

But I guess, I was being idealistic here.

Spotify!

Great evening everyone! So after watching My New Sassy Girl (a korean movie of 2016) which is a little let down since it's predecessor, I've decided to do a blog regarding my favorite spotify playlist.

For those who still don't know, Spotify is a free music application you install on your phone or computer where you can listen to a vast number of songs. It requires data connection or WiFi but if you want to listen offline you can purchase the premium version.  I would recommend this application because not only could you listen to your favorite music but it also suggests other songs which you might possibly like.

Not only that, did you know that you could also listen to audiobooks on Spotify? I was able to read an article about it recently in what we do not know that Spotify can do.

Going back to the topic, I seem to go over and over with "Your Favorite Coffeehouse".

How about yours? What's your favorite Spotify playlist?

Realizations

I've been so afraid for possible consequences which may or may not come into fruition. Now I've been wiser, I've realize to just not care at all. Just live in the moment the best you can.
