MIND THE GAP (fresh from LONDON!)







Greetings to you all,

So yeahh.. I'm fortunate enough to travel to London in this difficult times of year. (THANK YOU LORD!)
Anyhow, I'm pretty dissapointed for the fact that I missed couple of good events or attractions here!

Before I go to London, I googled the hypest event thats gonna takes place during my visit!
and GUESS WHAT???? the amazing ROYSKOPP and PEACHES will have (errrghh, or should I rephrase to "HAD") their concert at SouthBank Center, London! (alongside many other great singers,musicians,bands)

From April 10th - 24th, Ether Festival will spoil Londoners of all ages to enjoy one of the great music festivals of all times!! The great line up for this year such as David Byrne, Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, The Juan MacLean, Chateau Flight and the London Sinfonietta and the Orchestra of the Age of The Enlightenment and of course Peaches and Royskopp have been filled the month of April in London with exciting tunes and musics.

I totally missed Royskopp gig due to the infamous "SOLD-OUT" terminology! ughhhh.. my heart broke to pieces when I found out that all the tickets for last saturday were chuckout! OH WELL.. I'll keep myself busy infront of this monitor to find great music scene in London for the month of April.. (the weather outside is foggy anyway and it has been raining all day long..) London's weather definetely unpredictable, MATE!

If you guys have any interest in this festival, check this out: http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/festivals-series/ether

(GASP) SANTIGOLD New York's GIG!!



What happened to the springtime saying, “April showers bring may flowers?”

Current weather conditions and forecasts in New York are quite unpredictable. Just this morning in the beginning of Aries/Taurus month, the snowstorm hit the Big Apple only for a few minutes. Now, (of course) the sun makes its mellow appearance over the earth (AGAIN).

Should I sing the good ole song by Annie:

“The sun will come out, tomorrow
Bet your bottom that tomrrow, there'll be sun
Just thinking about, tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow,
Til there's none.”

Anyway, talking about mellow and things of this nature… I bought a ticket to the tuneful SANTOGOLD concert!! (HEYYYAA, do you think the aforementioned paragraph related to the next one? I don’t think is a good transition sentence choice.)
BLAH! Back to Santogold-MODE… Wait up.. not forget to mention, she changed her stage name to Santigold sometimes last February.. (I hope I didn’t make anyone confused)

Her show will takes place on June 9th, 2009 at Terminal 5. and NO! this time, I did not purchase the ticket because of the impulse buying rigidity but simply because I’m a huge fan of her! (Honestly, I think that M.I.A. and Santogold are the hottest goddesses from paradise!!) I’ve been listening to the MagZing (MAGnificent-amaZING) artist for years now. ~yes, I just made up a new word. Teheeehehe..

So, I called one of my lil’ sweethearts who happened to just get her Monroe piercing (her name is Nami), and in a high-pitchy voice I informed her about the concert. We both were so hyped! And, within the blink of an eye, we bought the tickets!

Come and join us to Santogold festivity! Pull out your colorful-funky-attractive outfits and dance to “Creator”, “Shove it”, “L.E.S. Artistes”, “You’ll find the way” while having fun with your family and friends (cuz this gig opens for ALL AGES!) YEAY!

the vigorous L - for "LADYTRON"

Recession.. Whaaatt????

In this financial turbulence, one may thinks that he or she should save up money, perhaps brush up skills for next job hunting, put aside the unimportance and place top priorities etc etc etc etc

ME, on the other hand... has been L.O.L or I shall say... Living Out Loud!!! (I’m not saying it proudly, but rather ashamed of my own habit.)

So here's what happened last last week. I purchased a ticket to Ladytron/ The Faint (with opening by Crocodiles and FIGO DJS) concert at Webster Hall on April 10th, 2009! I was sooo excited to dance my heart away with tunes like "Burning Up" or "Tommorow"...

Hence, I got cought up in TRON-HYPE kinda situation and unfortunately, engaged in the notorious impulse buying! (errrr…) Without thinking much further, I clicked the "buy ticket NOW" icon and in a matter of seconds, I got the ticket!




SO WHAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO THE CONCERT, AISHA????
common, it's LADYTRON, sha.. u duffus..! nothing can go wrong with that...!

Alright, here’s when the dilemma parts came to the picture. Due to long spring break from school, I randomly decided to go out of the country for two weeks and that means I will miss the Ladytron concert. (DUH! I purchased the tix already!) Subsequently… AGAIN, I experienced the irresistible urge for the airplane ticket… (OH GOSH.. really! I have to stop this tendency of “living-the-moment in toto”)

Anyhow, to make the long story short, I tried to resell my Ladytron ticket but have no luck at all! I was planning to sell the tix for $15 or $20 –flat!! ARGH! So much so of uncertainties here…

Yearn to Posses: The Elias!




'Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays!'

YES! whenever monday comes, I usually think about this quote from the movie "Office Space" with Ron Livingston and Jennifer Aniston.

Still in my sleepy mode at the office, I received an email from KEEP company unveiling their new model... "THE ELIAS"..
Cursed you KEEP company! why you have to produce such alluring yet comfortable-chaussure in the midst of this financial turmoil..! arghhh, SERIOUSLY!
I've been a goodie-ol' loyal customer of the shoe company since 2007-ish when I bought my first shoe called "The Nuss". My nussy-nuss fits superbly and feels like I'm walking on sunshine..

and yes.. you can imagine me singin' and yelling the song by Katrina and the Waves whenever I wear my nussy-nuss..

"woah yeh!I'm walking on sunshine ,
wooah.. I'm walking on sunshine, woooah
I'm walking on sunshine, woooah..
and don't it feel good!!"

AHEM! ok, back to the amazing "THE ELIAS"... the website describes it as "new hi-top shines with a streamlined design and minimal padding. Cotton canvas with a velcro ankle strap and vulcanized sole."
NO KIDDING!! just by reading their descriptions, makes me wanting the shoe to a much greater extent!
At any rate... just go to http://www.keepcompany.com/ for more information.
The price for "The Elias" is merely $95/pair (still pricey compare to the other types)
Nevertheless, I'll purchase this hot-thangg when my next pay check comes in! YIPPIE!!


PS: I'm the one who wears the plaid shirt, crazy-pink bandada, mini hot-skirt and a kick-a*s green NUSS.
the next picture is the "watermelon" edition that already on my evergrowing wish-list! nyahaha!

Toodles all...!

Buoyed up by UFFIE!




Hellow everyone! Guess what? I'm in a UFFIE state of mind! She's absolutely attractive and talented! kind of envy her too (but in a positive way of course!)
Prolly you guys know more about her than moi, but just to be on the same level here..
here are simple outlines about UFFIE:
* Born in the states but based in the sizzling city, Paris
* I heard that she was raised in Hong Kong (however, I don't know the validity of this info!)
* Sorry Fellas, unfortunately, She's married already!
It's easy to see that she's a super-PYT with cute voice (obviously)!
I was shocked when I heard about her collaboration with Justice.. I like this song "The Party" by that group for almost a year, but I just found out that it was Uffie who sang that song.
So far, my fav. songs by her would be "Pop The Glock" and "In Charge"...
I googled the meaning of "Glock" and this is the simple definition from urban dictionary "To shoot a pistol or other small gun."
Hence, we all can concluded that she went hard core with most of her lyrics!

~Hail to La reine-UFF!

happyyy early birthday for moi!



As most of you have known that my birthday is coming up on April 21! I was just thinking, instead of you buying me lovely presents (which I’m sure most of you will. lol!), why don’t you donate and support Keep A Child Alive as an alternative!
I want to invite you to join me in the fight against AIDS in Africa. AIDS is an epidemic that one cannot neglect its existence. Hundreds of thousands of children in Africa become infected with HIV and AIDS every year. I was stunned by the studies, which state that in Africa one in three newborns who are infected with HIV die before the age of one.
Therefore, let’s make a difference by supporting Keep A Child Alive.

Below is a link to my personal KCA web page where you can make an online contribution. You may go to “Donate” on your right hand corner and fill out the necessary information. For In Honor Of box, you may write: Aisha Parlindungan’s Birthday. In case you haven’t heard about Keep A Child Alive before, you may put Aisha’s Birthday under referral box.

http://kcacollege.com/profile/AishaParlindungan

If you prefer to make your donation by mail, you may make a check payable to Keep A Child Alive and submit it to me. Once I receive all of the checks, I will mail them out myself. Please indicate in your correspondence or on your check if you are making a one-time gift or if you want to become a Recurring Donor (The payment will repeat on a monthly recurrence on an ongoing basis.) However, if you wish to mail the check on your own, below is the address:

Keep A Child Alive
45 Main Street, Suite 720
Brooklyn, NY 11201

Every amount, no matter how small, makes a difference and provides hope for these children. I would not have any access to maintain the donation, so I would appreciate it if you inform me once you contribute to KCA. Thank you for all of your support and kindness. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart,

Aisha Parlindungan
