Future Thoughts.
It looks like I won’t be staying in San Diego next summer; I give this a 70% chance.  With medical, anthropological, and collegiate aspirations, I have a feeling that I will be in Los Angeles again, taking test prep classes and working.  It’s interesting how life can change in 2 years.  Thank goodness I bought those prep books to begin preliminary studying. A New Years Resolution...

I need to work harder if i am going to achieve my goals. I...

To the Sapphire Sound
Tonight is your night.  Give it all of the focus, musicality, strength, heart, passion, soul, and love you got. Concentrate and focus your energy at the show at hand. Play with accuracy, march with accuracy, and preform with accuracy. Tonight is your night, and the true nature of Alleluia will be revealed. Oh, and one more thing, if you remember it: “Never, never, never, never give...

ANG INSEPSYON
A feature length “Inception” parody as part of my Filipino Final is finally finished.   Total Time: 57 minutes Total Intended Time: 35 minutes I’m actually quite proud of this video project.  It’s the hardest and most artistic work that I have ever done in amateur/school film projects. The best scenes will show up during Winter Break.  Believe me, even if it is in a...
