Dinner in familiar lives




KFC - Ayala MRT station

I was in a corner, eating shrimp rice and soup just about past 8 while I was waiting for the MRT line to shrink down. It was simply another evening in another night in the same life. These were things that are always kept in repeat.

I noticed this man in front of me, having dinner all the same. He was alone, as was I, and as well as the others who were doing the usual rounds--work, eat, sleep. It never stops. Tomorrow, we would be waking up, taking baths, dressing up, then off to work.

...

It never seems enough.

Kkhole's Bday Show


20 Oct 08
Conspiracy Bar

Kkhole's bday show. It was a delightful event as Khole celebrated his 'orbit' in singing songs in 'songwriters' night'.

What would be your greatest fear? I'd list being on stage in a solo act. I've done shows where I was back-up, singing, dancing, tinkling with me bass guit, but doing it alone, and stripped of electronics is surely an oven.

Khole does it all here. Armed with an acoustic guitar, the stage lights seem to rattle the shaky voice. But with a tremendous spirit, he did 3 compositions with flair.

A nice way to celebrate your life; try conquering it.
