I love singing as much as I love dancing, but as many people would agree the dancing part of me took all the talent. Last Tuesday, Dennis and I joined the HP Duets elimination in SMPC office. We had two tiebreakers. We felt like screaming instead of singing during those tiebreakers. Haha! But it was fun. The real-time scoring of Magic Sing proved to be hilarious because you get to see how each team matches up with the other when singing the same song. We managed to win it and was able to go the finals last Thursday and there we had our lashing. At least we didn't have an awful judge's score.
Our team had its first console game tournament last night. The games were Guitar Hero and Little Big Planet. I played the drums in Guitar Hero and teamed up with Leks, Loren and Athan. Fortunately, we won the Guitar Hero tournament. ^_^ It has been a while since I last played drum arcade, DTX Mania, in Timezone. It was a good refresher.

25 Random Things
Tagged by Tweety.
Tagging: Lemuel, ADDU batchmates and schoolmates
Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
~+~
01. My mother was born in Samar. My father was born in Davao. I was born here in Manila. =)
02. I have loved dancing ever since the first time I heard dance music. My most memorable performance was during my senior year in high school. We joined an inter-school dance competition. We danced Michael Jackson's concert version of his songs (Billy Jean, Dangerous, and a bit of Smooth Criminal)
03. I was a member of the drum & lyre band of my elementary school. I first played the snare drum but I later on took the bass drum even though I'm not qualified in terms of height and body size. Our coach still allowed me because I think there were no other boys who were willing to carry a heavy drum during parades and contests. Haha!
04. I love fruit salad. I always want to have fruit salad especially during my birthday. I love it more when cheese or mango are added to it.
05. I was religious back in high school, I usually attend a mass before going to school since the cathedral was just nearby. I joined a search-in workshop during my senior year and I almost entered the seminary because of that.
06. I love memorizing numbers. I have memorized my TIN, PHilhealth no., SSS no. and credit card nos. (yes, including AMEX and also their CCV nos.). During my sophomore year in high school, I memorized the Asian countries and their capitals and land areas for a history recitation. Good thing I was asked to recite all Asian countries or else it would have been a total waste.
07. I can vividly remember almost all the things that happened in the past. I can remember my surroundings and what had happened as young as 2 years old.
08. My prediction is true, 80% of the time. I joined a quiz bowl back in college wherein the topics which me and my teammates studied were totally different. During the average round, I called the shots for our answers (multiple choice with 4 choices). We scored 8 out of 10. This is also the reason why my wife won't let me speak when I'm about to say something that is yet to happen.
09. I never had an absence in college, except when I participate in an inter-school competition.
10. I got poisoned when I was more than a year old. I ate the chips that fell on the floor where a raid/baygon got spilled. I was rushed to the hospital when my mom noticed that half of my body is paralyzed.
11. I almost had a sibling when I was in grade 1. My mother had a miscarriage during her first trimester. I was crying in the tricycle on the way home from school. I don't think my grandmom, who accompanied me home, saw me crying.
12. I have acquired a liking to spinning things using my hand or finger(s). I learned how to spin a basketball in grade school. I learned how to spin a notebook or any flat object in high school. I learned how to spin a ballpen in college.
13. I was so active in academic and extra-curricular activities in high school. I was the battalion commander of our batch in CAT in high school
14. I love racing and sports video games. I'd still play and sometimes finish an NFS game even if reviews say it sucks. I play Fifa, Madden, NBA 2k9(nba live
15. During my senior year in high school, I joined a search-in seminar and almost entered the seminary.
16. I was religious in high school. I usually attend mass or pass by the church to pray before going to school. There was once when I was able to attend 3 holy masses in a day. One before going to school, two our school's holy mass and three the perpetual help novena mass, which our school was always the sponsor.
17. I was primarily a lector in our school's ministry club. I'm a choir member when not assigned to read.
18. I didn't know that I was actually influencing my high school circle of friends(boys) in to study hard and not to cheat during exam. And I didn't tell them to do it.
19. I love history and science. I used to dream of becoming a scientist or a doctor.
20. My most memorable dance performance in a group happened during my senior year in high school. We joined an inter-school dance contest and won 1st place. We danced the concert edition of Michael Jackson's songs, which includes Billy Jean, Dangerous and a little bit of Smooth Criminal. But my most memorable dance of all is the dance with my wife during our wedding reception.
21. Blue is my favorite color. I have a set of shirts before that were different shades of blue.
22. I love manga and anime. I was into anime back in high school and college. My manga addiction started in college. I even memorized some anime soundtracks
23. I have lived in the three major islands of the Philippines. 8 years in Manila, 8 years in Digos City, Davao del Sur, 4 years in Davao, 1 year in Cebu and 2 years and counting in Meycauayan.
24. I never had the chance to know my father very well. He resigned from his work in Saudi and brought us to Digos City. 1 year and a half after we transferred and exactly 8 days after my 10th birthday, he died in a vehicular accident. I didn't cry when I saw his body in the hospital. I only cried when he was buried. But ever since that day, I cry or get teary-eyed whenever I think and remember him because I want to know him not just through what my relatives tell me about him.
25. I have a liking to spinning objects with my hand or fingers. I learned how to spin a basketball back in elementary using all my fingers from both hands. I learned how to spin a binder/notebook or any flat object in high school. I learned how to spin a ballpen clockwise and counter-clockwise, but I first learned how to spin it with many rotations.
