Bamboozle 2012 at Asbury Park, NJ


The best weekend of my life! Just music and friends. And beer! To see the way I experienced it from my point of view visit this page www.photobucket.com/etsbamboozle2012

What a great 3-day event it was. Great bands and artists come together to celebrate music in Asbury Park, NJ where Bamboozle all began 10 years ago. There was never a dull moment. Incubus, Foo Fighters, Bon Jovi, etc. SIGH. Love, love, love it!! You only live once! So proud to be part of Bamboozle 2012!

I finally got to see Dave Grohl up close! Dang it! He was inches away from me but due to too much squishing and pushing I couldn't reach to him! But seeing him that close, singing was all worth it!!

Again, check out my pictures and videos at the above link or here. A million thanks!

If you have a spare moment, follow me on Instagram too :) @etsgravity "HUSH"

PEACE.

Memories...

"I think that the only reason why people hold onto memories so tight, for so long is because memories are the only things that don't change, even when people do." Unknown


Yes, it hurts. But what else can I do but move on. Be strong and keep my head up. Here I am acting like the victim when its basically the both of us. It's hard but what else can I do but let go.

Everything ends. Everything and everyone will leave you. The memories will haunt you but the music will stay and wil somehow make it easier to go on without anyone else.

I'm lost...



You were never mine in the first place. It wasn't real. They all happened in a dream. Funny thing is, this feeling I have is real I still love you when basically it never happened...

What I am to you is not real...but I love you and long for you still.

I was just there at the right time and right moment in your life... I remember everything like it was yesterday. I gotta stop (but I know I won't). There's only one thing I'm very sure of right now. Everything else is confusion. Why do I care this much and it seems like you don't? I love you...you said you do (did) too. She shouldn't have let you go. So we wouldn't have found each other. But then again, no regrets. Only a few knew, it was the greatest story never told. I need to let go. God give me strength to let go and let him be...

At least I'll have the peace of mind of that I did and tried everything...why do I still feel there's something missing? GAH! Shuttup mind! Or is it my HEART??!


"Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the yesterdays." Ralph Waldo Emerson


Always "Hang in There"

Difficulties arise in the lives of us all. What is most important is dealing with the hard times, coping with the changes, and getting through to the other side where the sun is still shining just for you.

It takes a strong person to deal with tough times and difficult choices, But you are a strong person. It takes courage. But you possess the inner courage to see you through. It takes being an active participant in your life. But you are in the driver's seat, and you can determine the direction you want tomorrow to go in. 

Hang in there... and take care to see that you don't lose sight of the one thing that is constant, beautiful, and true. Everything will be fine - and it will turn out that way because of the special kind of person you are.

So... beginning today and lasting a lifetime through - hang in there, and don't be afraid to feel like the morning sun is shining...just for you.

I gave a piece of my heart and he gave his with no regrets...


After months of being not here, here I am coming back with a broken heart. I've been gone because I found love and it kept me busy all these months. But now as everything in this world, it has ended. Not because we stopped loving each other but because of much deeper complicated reasons. A part of living that makes you really look at life as being unfair and well really sucks. I learned to love and it's the best feeling I've ever felt. Sometimes when you love someone no matter how much this statement is overused and very much cliche, you just have to let them go even if it breaks your heart. :( Being loved and loving someone is the greatest gift you can have in this world, sadly once its gone its also the most painful and undeserved gift you can have...

"Bring it back, hurry back please bring it back home to me because you don't know what it means to me..." :'(
   
“Yes I love him. I love him more than anything else in this world and there is nothing that I would like better than to hold on to him forever. But I know it's not for the best. So no matter how much my heart is going to break, I've got to let him go so he can know just how much I love him. Maybe if I'm lucky, he'll come back, but if not, I can make it through this.”

I'll be fine...

NCLEX passer!

WOOHOOO! I made it! Had my Nursing Pinning on May 17, graduated from college on May 20. And officially passed the NCLEX, soon to be a Registered Nurse. At 20 years old, this are my proud accomplishments. Call me conceited, but all the struggles I've been through and conquered I think I have the right to be proud. All the hard work and discipline! All the temptations I defeated! God is good! I'm announcing it to myself and to whoever is reading this blog. I don't really care if I got readers or not but thanks and really I appreciate the time for those who take a moment and check out this blog. I haven't been posting some worthy posts as I've said I've been very busy and I haven't been inspired in awhile. But I'll keep on writing. Maybe not now lol as soon as I get inspired. Everything is looking good right now. Life is good! It's amazing how depressed I was before and now I look at everything positively. I credit it to the people and friends I never thought I would ever have again. And to this wonderful dude who I think really made me a changed person.

A belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my bestfriend AYA in the Philippines! I miss you so much! We'll see each other again soon! Love you! GAROOPY forever!

Special shoutout to Zee, creator of the blog Music and more... thank you for still reading this blog! You're awesome! Enjoy your last week of school!

Playing right now: Walk On by U2

A special person sent this to me and it just made my day and got me going and persevering and so I'll end this post with this quote:

"Today remind yourself that nothing is too good to be true. Your great hopes can be realized. Your most wonderful dreams can come true. All that you really need, you can have. An incredible goodness is operating on your behalf. If you are living a paltry life, resolve to stop it today. Expect great things to happen. Confidently receive God's abundant blessings. Do not think of lack. Instead think prosperity, abundance, the best of everything. God wants to give you, his child, every good thing. Don't hinder his generosity."

A Tragic Loss



Clarence Clemons
January 11, 1942 - June 18, 2011

I'm speechless. I just read today The Boss's reaction to his stroke last week.  He was hopeful. Then when I checked my e-mail again later tonight saw the headline that Clemons has died. What a loss. You will be missed Mr. Clemons. May you rest in heavenly peace. Thanks for the music, your beautiful saxophone and your fans will miss you...hope you're rocking in heaven!
