Who says that online games are worthless piece of junk and just a waste of precious time? Well, I can't argue with you if that's the case. But then on my side, Online games can also bring you to places you want to go. It may also make you have anything that you want. It can also be your work as a GM. And it may also be one of those precious things that you can't forget....
I was so hopeless until the time i heard them speak.
"Yes, you may go," uttered by my parents the night before.
I was so happy! I slept early and woke up early as well. I fix everything that I'll bring and went to Tanza with Emerson. Michael, Shaider, Paulo, Bea, Eugene was waiting for us there. Then we waited for Jake and Jehno. Dianne went ahead with his father as we rode the van.
Yes. We were the first to came and register. It was the GetAmped National Tournament at the Mall of Asia. Michael was included in the individual category so we are to support him. Well, before we play, we first ate at Jollibee. We need some energy to have a nice game. After eating, we went back to play for free.
Everyone was having fun. And the Hero TV channel was covering everything. I never thought that this is just like what i see on TV when there are some tournament. It felt that good. Well, anyway, we also took pictures. It's my first time to be in this event so I was so amazed.
Soon enough, the National tournament starts. MIchael was about to fight. Well, he started it good. Later on, Dianne was about to go home. Then, computers suddenly experience an online disturbance which we call "lag." Soon, Michy loses and ended up 4th place within the 4 who fought. In the team category, Team Visayaz won 1st, Team Luzon 2nd and MIndanao as 3rd.
Well, that's not pretty bad at all since he reached this far. But we really can't avoid that when someone wins, someone loses. It's how you play the game.^^
Well, 1st price winners received not only a trophy, not only the cash price but also a trip to Singapore to fight for the world festival. They can win up to 2 million pesos. Well, the second received cash price as well and if the 1st can't go to Singapore then he will.
Well, the day doesn't end there yet. I also had a GetAmped joystick because of the raffle and I got the poster of the GetAmped Tournament. I also asked the GMs an autographed- GM Dredd, GM Gabriel and GM Zyn.
I looked at the clock and well, it's past 11 PM. We went to the van. We even fitted even the brother of Froiland and Dianne whom we thought who left was there. I came home pass 12 PM still amazed of what happened.

A Breath Away
Anything could happen in a snap of a finger. Everything can just disappear in a beat. That is what I believe since the 19th of the month when everything seems to be so usual, at first. Well, it was just at first.
Well, it was a quiet night. My brothers and Mom were on bed. They were about to sleep as I stay up doing my school work. I was enjoying the night back then when all of a sudden, the lights turned off. All the power shuts down leaving the laptop on (it has batteries) and I said to myself, "Oh, no! I'm not yet done with my assignments! Why does it have to be brown out?!?" After a few seconds, I heard a sound from the window beside me. It sounds like something was exploding. I looked at it and saw sparks. It was the post near our house. It was like fireworks beside me trying to get nearer. My mother comes out her room and woke my brothers. She was panicking in the darkness as she shouts "Faster, faster! Let's go out the house!" And so, we ran down and go a few meters away while my heart beats so fast and pounding so hard that I cannot chase it anymore. On the way was our neighbors disturbed as well by what happened. They were saying that one house in our place had so much use of their electricity for their business that the post overloaded.
I glanced again at the post and cut wires and it was burning. I was so scared! My mom got the car and let us stay there. After that, she called Dad and called for Meralco. A few minutes later, a police car came. I don't know. Later on, everyone in the neighborhood come back to their houses and us as well. They lie down the bed and continued to sleep while me trying to finish my work with a flashlight with me. Well, I finished it that easy but to sleep was hard. All the sparking was still in my mind and my heart does not stop beating so fast. I tried to lie down the sofa waiting for me to sleep as I say " it's alright, it's alright."
I looked at the window again and saw a vehicle with stairs on it. It was the Meralco! At last, they were trying to fix the post. And then, I don't know how but I slept.
The morning I woke up, I was still sleepy from last night. But then, I was so happy and so thankful that in a breath away, everything was back to normal. We have our electricity back and no one got hurt.

Undeniably Exciting
Well, with the score of 18 points, the Red Macintosh won by three away from Blue Vaio at the championship of basketball. Charmaine dela Paz, our team captain, together with our team mates won as champion. Blue Vaio won second, Green Acers won third and Yellow asus won fourth.
I did not expect the championships so awaited but a lot of students was there to watch. Many witnessed and cheered adding to the pressure and intensity of the game. Then, the score have reached 16-8 in the favor of red.
We thought the red won't be facing any problems anymore so we were relieved. We realized we are wrong. The blue actually had caught us up. They reached 15 points but the time stopped and I guess it's not enough.
Well, it was something, I am happy we won.

I Can't Breathe
You know what I need? Air Supply!
On a Saturday night, I celebrated with hundreds of people, some known and some simple, the concert of this famous soft rock duo. Russell and Graham seem to look older than they used to but their voices stayed so sweet. It was the same as how they started their career in Sydney, Australia.
Well, I was there with my Mom, my Dad, my sister and her boyfriend. I was so excited for I've never been to Araneta Coliseum and I've never seen some famous classical singers from other countries. That is why I can say this is the highlight of my week. (By the way, Charice was a headstart. I don't really know who she is.)
"Just as I Am", "Even the Nights are Better", "Here I Am", "Two Less Lonely People in the World", "Every Woman in the World", "The Power of Love" and "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" were some of their original songs that they sang that day but there are more of them. They even sang "Me and the River" which is a new song from them that will soon be released on their next album.
The Guitarist, the pianist and the drummer was A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!! They play like the modern music with a classic tune. I was so amazed not only how they play the instrument but also by them themselves.
Famous personalities are also there in VIP. Mel Tiangco, Mike Enriquez, and a lot more. Mrs. Imelda Marcos was as well there. They were only a few of all the people who shares the same passion for their music.
And so, the show ended not remembering what time it was. "I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you...." was everyone's words until they all come bowing down their heads to the audience. It was one of my favourite songs from them.
I hope i would have another chance laike this.

Nothing Merely Just Testing
Welcome to my blog! Well, i just want to test how this works and I still have to learn the basics. More than that, I think that this might be really enjoying. I am so eager about it because I had never taken "blogging" so seriously. And come to think of it, I already have a first entry. May I have more entries to come.
Well, I apologize to say such non-sense things. Actually, I really have to apologize if this whole entry does not concern you at all. Because that is what this whole entry is all about. I don't really know what to say. It's just that my fingers just keep on typing a lot more. But seriously, I can't think of anything to say.
Ahh! I know. How about telling some more about this blog?
"spaceNOTenough" is what this blog called. I might not have such specific reason about having it but this mind of mine tells me "choose this" and I did. "spaceNOTenough" have a lot of meaning to me, you see. It might mean that too much is not good at all. It might also mean the other way around, we will never run out of ideas and space is always there for it. Or maybe, just the plain "too much." I told you i'm not so sure about it but I'm telling you I love it!
So many words to type, I don't know what to choose. Well, anyway, thanks for dropping by. I'm just a newbie so don't you expect a lot from me. I hope you don't get bored with my silly ways of telling stories and my words of my mind, my thoughts and days not to be forgotten.
Now, I am writing the last sentence of this on-the-spot entry though worthless I'm still hopeful you might like it and thank you again.
