Esthero - Everyday Is A Holiday With You

Title: Everyday Is A Holiday With You (see video on youtube)
Artist: Esthero
Album:2006?

Met him on Sunday
Loved him by Tuesday afternoon
Woke up on Friday
Changed my whole life
to make some room

Around a quarter to two
I have remembered all of my lines
I say when I think of you

Your'e like a favorite song to
That melody, that melody I love
And it goes

La da da da da da da da da da
La da da da da
La da da da da
La da da da

Hopped on the Metro
And I'm on my way home
But I can't get him out of my mind
No matter just how hard I try

And if the rumors were true
I could look forward to some
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/RZq ]

Better days and get aways
Are so nice 'cause when I am with you
You're the cresendo to
that melody, that melody
I love

La da da da da da da da da da

Better days and get aways
'Cause every day is a holiday with you

La da da da da..

Better days and get aways
'Cause every day is a holiday with you

Gotta let them know
Gotta know for sure
Dont leave me I'm in the cold
Gotta know for sure

La la la la..

When I think of you
Better days and get aways
'Cause every day is a holida with you

La da da da da da da da da da

Better days and get aways
'Cause every day is a holiday with you

La da da da da..

Maria Mena - Just A Little Bit

Title: Just A Little Bit (see video on youtube)
Artist: Maria Mena (read interview)
Album: 2004

just a little bit stronger
just a little bit wiser
just a little less needy
and maybe i'd get there

just a little bit pretty
just a little more aware
just a little bit thinner
and maybe i'd get there

clearly, clearly i remember
hiking up my skirt
and asking for your time

clearly, clearly i remember
nervous if ever confronted
and questioning myself

oh perhaps, perhaps if i got better
perhaps if i challenged myself
perhaps if i was...

just a little bit stronger
just a little bit wiser
just a little less needy
and maybe i'd get there

just a little bit pretty
just a little more aware
just a little bit thinner
and maybe i'd get there

clearly, clearly i remember
pulling up my shirt
and staring blank ahead

clearly, clearly i remember
days of useless crying
and almost feeling dead

oh perhaps, perhaps if i was smaller
perhaps i could control myself
perhaps if i was...

just a little bit stronger
just a little bit wiser
just a little less needy
and maybe i'd get there

just a little bit pretty
just a little more aware
just a little bit thinner
and maybe i'd get there

just a little bit stronger
just a little bit wiser
just a little less needy
and maybe i'd get there

just a little bit pretty
just a little more aware
just a little bit thinner
and maybe i'd get there

oooahhhh oooahhhh oooahhhh oooahhhh
just a little bit pretty
just a little more aware
just a little bit thinner
and maybe i'd get there

Lenka - The Show

Title: The Show (see official video on youtube)
Artist: Lenka
Album: Lenka (2008)

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why

Slow it down
Make it stop
Or else my heart is going to pop
'Cause it's too much
Yeah, it's a lot
To be something I'm not

I'm a fool
Out of love
'Cause I just can't get enough

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment
I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

The sun is hot
In the sky
Just like a giant spotlight
The people follow the sign
And synchronize in time
It's a joke
Nobody knows
They've got a ticket to that show
Yeah

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I dont know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment
I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

Just enjoy the show

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I dont know where to go I can't do it alone I've tried
And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment
I'm so scared but I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

dum de dum
dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

dum de dum
dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show

Smoke Resto

D’MALL BORACAY by Jammy Maramag. Smoke Resto is a quaint restaurant located at the back alley, where the wet market is, of the famous D’mall. Its modest ambiance, great tasting food and affordable meal prices have made Smoke Resto very popular to locals and tourist alike. It is so popular that, owners, Rea and Ancho(res) have decided to open a second branch (behind Andok’s D’mall) to serve more raving diners.

Smoke Resto serves hearty breakfast meals and Oriental dishes. Its breakfast menu consists of omelets, sandwiches and favorite Filipino breakfast meals such as Fried Bangus, Tuyo, Tapsilog, Longsilog, Tocilog and Cornsilog. Its Oriental menu consists of savory vegetables, meat and seafood dishes. Must try vegetable dishes are Chopsuey, Spicy Buttered Mushrooms, Adobong Kangkong and Ginataang Kalabasa. Famous meat dishes are Spicy Beef Salpicao, Beef Teriyaki, Pan-grilled Chicken, Chicken Curry, Creamy Oriental Chicken, Spicy Garlic Pork, Lechon Kawali, Sinigang, Sizzling Bulalo and Bicol express. For seafood junkies, should sample Smoke Resto’s Fried Calamari, Stuffed Squid, Spicy Buttered Shrimp & Steamed Crab in Lemon and Garlic Sauce.

You can conveniently find an open Smoke Resto at any given time. The old branch opens early while the new branch closes at around 5am. If you are out at that hour it likely you’ve had too much to drink and it’s about time you should consider a hang-over prevention. Yes. Rx: A bowlful of hot Bulalo.

Writer's Favorite - Spicy Beef Salpicao, Chicken Curry, Sizzling Bulalo, Kaopad and Original Bulalo
Budget Range: Php80-150 a meal

Boracay Travel Expenses: A Budget Guide

lifted from my It's Just Jammy's Luck dated 11 August 2008.

Boracay is in every Filipino's must visit list and a tight budget is always keeping many away from the destination.
So plan your trip early to save money or save money to start planning your trip. hmmm? Either way, just save up and go when it is cheapest. And you are so lucky because its off season!

So you're still calculating your travel expenses but still clueless of the various fees and taxes you might come by to get here? Lem'me help.

There are various ways to get to Boracay by plane (Kalibo and Caticlan). Kalibo is my favorite because it is relatively much cheaper than Caticlan. But some would prefer Caticlan over Kalibo because it is the fastest way to the island. SO it's really up to you.

Now, get your calculator and compute with me.

Bulabog Beach Cleaning Party

Because we love to party (and we like a clean beach)

BULABOG BEACH, BORACAY ISLAND by Jammy Maramag. The kiteboarders, windsurfers, locals and ex-pats alike joined in and gathered for a good cause : "Bulabog Beach Cleaning Party" at the Greenyard Funboard Center. The volunteers gathered in the afternoon, walking along the Bulabog shore picking up any eyesore, non-organic materials such as plastic, glass, metal scraps, etc. This sports enthusiast led event is in preparation for the upcoming Amihan where Bulabog Beach, located across the famous White Beach, is filled with wind and kite boarders from all over the globe.

Photos are taken from Boracay Events by Hans Jürgen von Lengerke.

Cheers to everyone who joined the movement!
