UAAP championship bonfire/ MUDBATH! '08

oh yeah, 2008 is the eagles year! boo hoo archers. guess you don't get dinner tonight. :D yuck whutta punch line. haha.

so, september 30, 2008. it was shining til about 1pm and then it suddenly poured! damn, i was taking my chem lab exam and i couldn't get my mind off the possible cancellation of the bonfire for tonight. but yeah, it did push through and it was frekken awesome. at about 5:30, the rain was gone but the whole bellarmine field was wet, muddy and well grassless! my white shoes were all soiled, thank god i didn't slip and roll over the floor (urgh, horrible horrible), i had my trusty camera and i got all the photos i want.

6:00pm: mass at the chapel of gesu. we didn't go, instead we sat comfortably in our pre-owned seats right in front of the bonfire. oh yeah, they were reserved especially for our block. thanks dar.

around 7:00pm: i met gela and we went back and forth the field to.. uh.. i don't know really, catch some people, get a glance of chris tiu, whatever. but enough enough. the other university champions were first acknowledged-- swim team, HS basketball team yada yada yada.

8-9:00-ish pm: the UAAP champions finally came out. they were introduced one by one, i had a great view. the people didn't care that i went through all of them, some even let me through, i think they thought i was part of a documents crew because i had a big camera with me. but all those walking made my shoes all brown and mushy muddy, elk. don't care. TIU TIU TIU. i had a lot of him shots and noy shots and eric and rabeh shots. haha.

was he staring straight at my camera? oohh.

10:00pm: BONFIRE! the varsity team was right behind me (they were on the stage, i was in the front row) but the bonfire was at the center o' the field so we all looked back. i got good glances of the players and good shots of course. hahahaha.11:00pm- onwards: bands bands bands. spongecola started. and then miguel escueta. yuck yuck yuck. don't care. don't wanna know. whutever. some stalling of the hosts. more stalling. then parokya ni edgar looking and sounding as great as ever. chito and vinci were so happy goffing off the stage. and then brigada came out. i knew it! i saw niño avenido in the tents backstage and i was like, 'what is he doing here?' hahaha. so there. i also saw ray fab already and calde. :D brigada was still so good. a few more performances and i will be able to memorize their beats already. hahaha. but podge wasn't there though. aww. i know. i miss the dude but it was still okay. they are really gooood. good job jorel!! you go kids!
12:00am: kjwan went up the stage na. OMG boogie! you are just sex! (ehem angel ehem. hahaha) he's so hot. he kept on coming to do guitar solos in front of me so he had a lot of shots. heheh. (what an excuse) and marc was so cute din, you go marc. kel was so cute, he smiled at me in one of my photos. haha. thanks kelley bear. i couldn't get good shots of jhoon behind drums because the stage was soo high and marc kept on jumping in front of him. i did get a few shots but a few would have made me happier. hehehe. this was the time i started deleting old photos because i didn't have enough memory in my camera. damn. gladly, i didn't miss a lot of kjwan. it was my favorite band of the night. yey! i love kjwan.1:00am: chicosci time! this frekken girl behind me kept on yelling, i nearly dropped the camera more than once pakyu ka. 'i love you mong! nye nye. tulak kita sa putik e.' i hate it when people do that, it's embarrassing. i know i'm just a bit insecure because she likes mong but what the hell? people are trying to enjoy their performance see? and not some punk-bubblegum chick yelling at people's ears like an irritating piece of old junk toilet cleaner. you a-hole. anyway, I MISSED A LOT OF GOOD SHOTS HERE BECAUSE I WAS DELETING TO GET MORE MEMORY, YOU KNOW SHOTS WHEN MONG WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, YEP HE SAT DOWN ON THE STAGE FOR THE GUITAR SOLO OF PARIS, I WASN'T SURE IF I WERE JUST SPACING OUT OR I JUST DIDN'T HAVE CAMERA MEMORY. HAHA. THE SHOTS WHERE MONG AND MIGGY NEARLY KISSED, BUT WHAT THE HECK, I SAW IT DIDN'T I? YOWN.

MONG, UH, WET MY TIU JERSEY BY THE WAY. WITH BEER DUDE. HE SPRINKLED WHAT HE WAS DRINKING WHEN THE LINE 'i love you just the same' CAME IN FOR A PROMISE. URGH, I HAD TO MOVE MY CAMERA AWAY SO IT DIDN'T GET WET. OH WELL.

after everything: as usual, i wasn't able to get any photos with the people backstage because that's gela's job. hahaha. i just couldn't. i couldn't move properly because of the mud so i didn't bother going backstage. :) we walked towards the exit to go head on home, talking about the mud and the rain that suddenly just poured right after, when MONG JUST WALKED PAST US! and yep you got it right, i just melted there, my friend was supposed to call him but i did the necessary beating. haha. oh dear me mong. you just keep killing me everytime. oh well.

p.s. yan yuzon was there and he was totally up for the la salle insults. you go yan! poch was also there. awww. i wanted to go take a picture of him but i just can't leave kjwan playing on stage! next time. next time. aww i missed them sooo much. :) :)

my last words: GO TEAM! WE LOVE IT! ATENEO RULES! SUPREME LOVE AND RESPECT. WE'LL MISS YOU MR. NUMBER 17. :)
