Day 14 – Memories: Been to any concerts?

We’re almost halfway! I quite like this entry because it’s going to make me re-live some awesome moments. I haven’t been to a lot of concerts but I can say I’ve seen my favorites live.. two music acts that belong in completely different genres: Incubus and 2PM. I saw Incubus in 2008 with my best friends in Jakarta, and I saw 2PM live twice, both in 2011. First was with my best friend, and the second time was during their full fledged concert in Jakarta with my sister and this was the most I’ve ever paid for a concert. Worth. Every. Penny. There’s something about K-pop stage production that blows you away. The amount of work and effort and thought they put into it better than worth it in itself. Incubus, there’s even no need to mention what it’s like seeing your favorite band from 6th grade (up to now) live and singing ALL YOUR FAVORITE songs. My first and forever love. Brandon Boyd and his voice. Jose on the drums. Mike and being his …

Day 13 – Something you’ve been putting off

I can already envision writing this entry to be hard-hitting, at the same time therapeutic, I guess, but it’s the type that I’m quite ashamed to tackle. The double F’s: finance & future. I’ve been meaning to be really good with money this year, yet I’m still failing at it. My goal for 2014 was supposed to get an insurance plan for myself and invest.. but 8 months in and that hasn’t happened yet. I have a few more months left to fulfill that goal and I hope and pray to the heavens that I get it started. It’s not easy being in your 20s and have cash flow. I work hard but I spend hard. I do admit I have shopaholic tendencies but I need to remind myself that I am no Rebecca Bloomwood and no finance honcho/hottie is going to save me out of my money woes should that time come (GOD FORBID). The only good thing from all this is that, I spend my money and no one else’s (cue “I don’t …

Day 12 – Share: Your bucket list

I don’t have a particular bucket list yet. What I know is that I want to travel Greece, Italy, Hawaii the most and I want to see John Mayer and Kanye West (don’t judge) and Justin Timberlake perform live the most. I would like to try bungee jumping and skydiving but if you asked me which one I prefer I think I’d go with bungee jumping as long as my legs aren’t the the ones that are being tied together! Of course, I’d like to travel the Philippines as much as I can. I think there is so much to discover still.

Day 11 – Your favorite: 10 songs right now

The entry is obviously “right now” and this could change tomorrow, next week. Basically, these are the tracks that I’m currently enjoying and that comes to mind immediately. The last one is also the EDM song that I will always enjoy because it never fails to make me dance. In no particular order except for no. 1, this is my list: Tokimonsta feat.
