Have a piece of heaven Karl Roy!

After celebrating my kid's 4th birthday yesterday and being thankful for his health unlike the freak accident he encountered last year on his 3rd birthday, I woke up and was shocked to find out that Karl Roy has passed away.
It was really hard to believe that he is gone... but knowing his health condition, there is a possibility that a heart problem could occur again. He has cheated death years ago by undergoing a heart surgery and now God might have said to Karl that  "your extension in life is long overdue". "It is time to have a piece of heaven". Some may have felt that he has turned his back on us...his fans...the music world...
but he is actually heading another road...and that is the after life...
don't worry because he has left a gift for all of us...and that is his voice...his music...his kindred spirit. He would always be watching over us..."hey karl! not all the time ok?" LOL
He was the voice of three great bands: Advent Call, Kapatid and my personal fave P.O.T. I have watched most of their shows when I was younger, but too bad I did not have pics of those moments...being dazed (or the S word) most of the time. He have given a glimpse of his life through his webcam-almost-daily-pics at Facebook...which was so funny...his transparency made him show who he really is to all kinds of people. Wake up Karl!
All the people I know who have met Karl Roy (may they be real friends or just acquaintances) have nothing bad to say about this person. He talks to everyone, never gets into a fight, always laid back and just basically nice. I am not a rockstar but I got a bad temper and sometimes a not-so-nice attitude...so please Karl, if you can hear me...teach me how to be more like you. 

I really love the song "Piece of This" because it hit me hard and it hit me double hard this time when I watched the video knowing Karl had passed away. I hate crying but the tears just poured down and after that I felt liberated knowing the tears I gave are worth it.


You have done a great job in this world and I wish I can also be remembered for something fruitful. For now, just chill and enjoy heaven...say hello to Annabel and Noel  :)

  3. I never heard of this guy but when I watched the video I felt your pain. His band is really dope! Too bad he died because I think they got the potential to become famous worldwide.

Eastwood New Year Staycation

Sorry that I have not been updating my blog post (as if someone reads it  LOL). It's been almost three years I think since I last wrote here that's why I made it my New Year's resolution to fix up my blog and write more often. Don't be surprised if you see stories about my adventures for the past few years since I will be doing a lot of catching up. Let me begin with my Eastwood New Year Staycation. Why Celebrate New Year in Eastwood?  I chose Eastwood City because it is closer to my place making it more accessible and there's a free New Year Countdown concert. I was considering Mall of Asia since they also have a free concert, but I already felt tired just thinking of my travel time and traffic. I originally booked a hotel near Ayala, Makati thinking that they still have a street party. After doing some research, I think they already stopped doing it for a few years now so Eastwood it is! Where to stay in Eastwood Eastwood Richmond Hotel is the most ideal p

Get A Taste of Hong Kong at Eat Fresh Restaurant

Holy Week is all about fasting, but it is really hard to do that when the food in front of you is tempting. Every Holy Thursday, it has been a family tradition to go on a Visita Iglesia. For those who don't know what that is, it is a religious practice of visiting at least seven churches and praying the Stations of the Cross. When we were younger, we used to visit like 14 churches and that's quite tiring. Today, it is faster with seven churches and more people are out of town taking advantage of the long weekend. After Visita Iglesia, with sadly a few family members getting sick because of heat and exhaustion, the rest decided to go to Eat Fresh Famous Hong Kong Street Food for late dinner. It was located along J.Abad Santos Street in San Juan near Xavier School and Wilson. From the outside, you wouldn't think that it is a restaurant because people choose the Hong Kong street food on stick displayed in front. I thought you would have to wait until they grill the f

All Iz Good at 7107 IMF: Day 2

After a night of EDM and hiphop music, the next day of the 7107 IMF was expected to have a different crowd. This is my chance to bump into people my age unlike Day 1 where I felt like a wannabe teeny-bopper. haha! I can't even keep up with all the non-stop dancing and drinking like I used to during my techno rave days in Malate and Makati. We got to the venue around 2:30 pm and the front area of the stage was already crammed with people. There goes my chance of getting up close with the Red Hot Chili Peppers . But I still got my hopes high...even if the chances of meeting them were really slim. So we settled in the middle part, which we called our home base cos that's were we meet when we get tired of roaming around.  Since the only bands that I was interested in watching at 7107 IMF that night were Empire of the Sun and RHCP, I ended up hanging out with some of my pals who I haven't seen for years.  Finally! Some people I can relate to...and they luckily got t
