wax ecstatic

karl and i had dinner last night at aling nena's bibingka at cubao. we were supposed to watch blade trinity at gateway but the 9:25 PM showing was just too late for me. maybe friday. so we just ate to our heart's content - mechado, adobong kangkong and bibingka. yum.

we hung out at iris and joe's bookstore afterwards. we met joe's book club friends, closed up with them and rode with them to the quezon ave mrt station.

karl lent me his new sponge cd with wax ecstatic on it. i'm surprised he didn't know about the song. i remember that song - like the eraserheads' superproxy in english. and the video. with the ugly girl (angelina?) on roller skates consuming all that vitamin e like cereal. and the stuff oozing out of the soft capsules. it used to play everyday on MTV super rock. that was how i was before, in the sixth grade and freshman and sophomore year in high school. my sister and i, as well as may, would go home after school as early as possible so we could watch super rock. (bad trip kung cleaners kami). ooohh super rock. with danny mcgill. and the stomping-boots-obb. there were so many good videos back then. even danny mcgill's own band had a video. well, good songs actually, not videos. there are a lot of better videos now, but the songs aren't good enough to carry them. super rock used to come on everyday. then they made it something like once a week. then they cut it. they didn't even give alternative nation a better slot. fuck MTV.

i guess that's why i'm not a hermit now.
