A special moment in 2008

Here's a little surprise we cooked up during our Album Launch last October 25, 2008. Keep watching, keep watching :D That's Zig singing the last "call I'll never get."

Thanks to Youtube user blackendgray for recording this special moment. Happy new year, Shirley friends!

SHIRLEY MANILA TIMES ARTICLE

"2. Themesongs by Ang Bandang Shirley and Bring Your Friends by Ciudad —Geeks do cry and when they do, they do it so eloquently that they can express their sentiments in a 3 to 4 minute song in a way you can relate to the best blog you’ve ever read."

thanks Cris O. Ramos Jr! :)

chocnut tayo sa labas

People are amazed that I don't smoke because I play in a band and I have a lot of friends who smoke. I don't hate smokers. I just hate the second hand smoke (good thing there is vitamin C). And I also believe smoking has sparked a lot of good friendships specially in areas where smoking is prohibited. Smokers gather in groups like outcasts and talk and bond and kiss, etc. Eating, on the other hand, is another great bonding activity but it is not usually done with strangers. Sometimes drinking (alcohol) can be done with people you don't know, but most of the time we only drink with our friends.

So what do I do when I'm jealous of friends who bond when they smoke? ---> I smoke chocnut with them.


Chocnut is small and very affordable and will not hurt your lungs and other people's lungs. It costs only P1.50 per stick. It is as cheap as an ordinary stick of cigarette. It is very sweet and tastes like chocolate and peanuts (hence the name chocnut). It's very easy to bring anywhere. The only problem I think with eating chocnut with smoking friends is, Chocnut is easier to consume. You would probably have eaten 3 Chocnuts already before your friend finishes 1 cigarette.

me smoking chocnut in baguio
