The Cranberries Live In Manila

I love 90's music not only because I'm a 90's kid but because the lyrics and music is really different from today's music. That's why I'm a bit disappointed when Jeff Timmons (98 Degrees) and Hanson went here in the Philippines to have a concert... I never got the chance to see them performing live. I know this is a bit funny but I always ask God that if I'll never got a chance to see them then maybe, just maybe I'll be given a chance to see The Cranberries live... and I think God answered my prayer...so...

YES! I was able to see them performing live!!!

I got two Upper Box A ticket and I decided to give it to my friend as a graduation gift. :)

Me and my friend Lhen while waiting for The Cranberries :)

I thought I'll be having a hard time to see them so I bought this foldable binocular.

Set List:

• Dreams 
• Linger 
• Tomorrow 
• How 
• Animal Instinct 
• Just My Imagination 
• Ode to My Family 
• Put Me Down 
• Analyse 
• Desperate Andy 
• Daffodil Lament 
• When You're Gone 
• I Can't Be With You 
• Waltzing Back 
• Raining In My Heart 
• Free to Decide 
• Schizophrenic Playboys 
• Ridiculous Thoughts 
• Zombie 

The audience thought that's the last song so we all screamed and beg for more... and of course The Cranberries didn't disappoint us :)

Encore:

• Conduct 
• Losing My Mind 
• Salvation 

Here are some of the videos I took during the concert:

Linger

Ode To My Family

Daffodil Lament

When You're Gone

Free To Decide

Zombie

Conduct

I am so in love with their songs Linger, Ode To My Family especially Zombie. I remember when I was 3 or 4 years that time when my parents bought me a small guitar, I would sit on our TV rack and started strumming (though of course it was out of tune) and then I'll start singing Zombie. That song made me appreciate music and that's one of the reason why music is now part of my life. :)

Thank You Circuit Magazine for the opportunity!

Thank You The Cranberries especially Dolores O'Riordan and Noel Hogan for the great music. It was an eargasmic moment indeed! :)

#TheJinriExperience on a Sunday Morning :)

#TheJinriExperience. That is the hashtag DJ Jinri Park used on twitter when she asked her followers about what they will do if they were given a chance to spend a day with her. Some of them tweeted romantic, sweet, and funny ideas. I remember I told her that if I'll be given a chance to spend a day with her as her bestfriend, we will watch any disney movies while eating pizza and cheetos. Emo nights will be awesome. Well, that'll be a perfect bonding for me. But what people don't realized is that, everytime they've been greeted on air or whenever Jinri retweet or replied on their tweets are considered as #TheJinriExperience. 

And last Sunday I was so lucky to spent the whole morning with her. Her show on RX93.1 starts at 4am until 8am. I started to change my body clock by sleeping early a week before I visit her, that's why I kinda hate my self for doing it. I know I was gonna feel sleepy the whole show but I was wrong... the playlist is sooo freakin cool that made me feel so awake. She graduated the day before her shift so I know it'll be awesome. And by the way, today's her birthday!!! :)

I caught myself laughing at her segment #TeachMeHowToMissUniverse :))

I'm a shy person that's why I'm having a hard time to ask her some questions that I end up somehow being quiet at the entire show.

Anyway, here's the audio during the #Korean101 : Jinri Park #Korean101 Rap Version :)

Happy Happy Birthday Dear Jinri!!! I really had fun eventhough we don't talk that much. Well, your presence is more important than anything else right? :)

Thank you for the awesome #JinriExperience ;)

Love is in the Air :)

As far as I remember, I have been to zoo for like 4 times and I really find it cool because I was able to see different kinds of animals, I gain so much information about them (it may sound a bit nerdy but it's true) and I am having fun at the same time. So when I got an invite to go to Zoocobia in Clark Pampanga, I feel really excited.

It was my first time to see a camel and an alpaca and see some owls upclose. I was amazed also when they let me feed the ostrich. 

But what makes it cooler there is that they have this gravity ride they called ZOOC.

It is only available in Zoocobia. This gravity ride is safe for all ages because riders are provided with safety gears.

They start the main event with some awesome performances too! I really love the fire dancers, I was amazed by their performance.

The main event in Zoocobia is the Wish Lantern Festival. I remember talking to my friend about attending a wish lantern event in Manila but it was postponed so I was really disappointed that time. Good thing, Zoocobia have this event too, and it made me happy.

I had a hard time thinking if what wish will I write... well I have so many wishes but I thought I should wrote the most important. I really enjoyed the wish lantern festival.

I was able to spent the awesome night with my blogger friends and that really makes the event more special :)
