i've experienced beyonce...

last night was definitely one of my highlights of 2007. my very first time to watch a foreign act and it's BEYONCE!!! i used to see her captivating performances only on tv but last night i was at the fort open field watching her live. she approached the stage around 8:30 pm in a sparkly silver gown (like in the promo material) and the crowd went wild. she perfomed her biggest hits, crazy in love (and gnarls barkley's "crazy"), freakum dress, green light, beautiful liar, naughty girl, me, myself and i, dangerously in love, upgrade u, ring the alarm, listen, irreplaceable (final number), and a medley of destiny's child songs (jumpin' jumpin', survivor, bug a boo). the all-girl band was impressive and each were given a moment's spotlight as beyonce prepares for her next set.

grabe, sobrang galing!!!

i've been to the beyonce experience... and it was worth it!!!

nais kong magpakalasing...

i never really knew my alcohol tolerance. i'm a social drinker and when i drink, i only drink up to the point of being tipsy. enough woozy feeling to wake up the follow day with a recollection of the night before without the unnecessary hangover.

but then last wednesday, i was invited to a halloween party, and one of the guys had this crazy idea of doing a "still standing" type of drinking game (thanks a lot, don!). the standard set consists of 10 drinks (including chasers). because of my weak liver, i had to lower it down a notch to 7 drinks (including water and chasers). i gulped and gulped up to the last glass and was victorious. for the first 20 minutes i was in full control. i was very much aware of what was going on. but the moment i stood up to move to another room i felt like i'm experiencing vertigo on acid! it was terrible and funny at the same time. i threw up around three times i think but it didn't seem enough to get rid of that awful feeling in my head. with enough determination, i kept myself from throwing up on the car that took me back to the condo.

the awful feeling went on until afternoon the following day. the whole experience was funny and all, but i swear not to ingest that much alcohol for the rest of my life.
