Ironic.. I was watching the classic moive “The Wizards of Oz” during my last day in Vancouver and now, my official second day here back home I’m writing my first post, “There’s no Place like home”.. nah, never mind.

I’m still trying to adjust my internal clock. felt like I’ve been in graveyard shift all week! Yesterday I was so tired and sleepy as soon as I lie flat on my bad, i was snoring.

The Arrival

Flight PR107 arrived at the Centennial Airport around 04:15 hours. That’s an early on our schedule (5:25am). It took us more almost an hour just to pick up our luggages (that’s alright, since late na ung susundo sakin).

I was at the arrival area of the airport from 6:00am to 8:45a… That’s when my brother, his wie, my mom and my wife and kids arrived to pick me up. (While I was waiting for them I watched Smallville Season 8 episodes 6 and 7, those I missed and the season premiere episode of ‘My Own Worst Enemy’)

The Scottish singer is planning to play at the Texan festival SXSW, Canadian Music Week and has a gig for Scotland Week in New York pencilled in her diary

The day ends. Today was the last work day here in Vancouver. We will be heading back home tomorrow night, 11pm.

We attended our last meeting with Roy B… (there’s this weekly Thursday team meeting). And btw, during that meeting the fire alarm rang and we all went down the building… Yeah, false alarm.

After lunch we had the last tutorial/lesson/training from Ms. D.. eTrusts and a little VEritas… Then it’s time to go home.. Nader and Sandy said Hi and Goodbye, have a save trip… Then there’s Eric and David, then Edward and Elinore… finally Shiva.

end….

postscriptum..

I was watching SUpernatural when I found out about Samhain or Samhein… If you’re curious, it has something to do with Halloween… Also trying to promote SXSW, the largest musical gathering in the US.

During the commercial, I saw this “W” movie. It’s about George W. Bush’s life. I only saw the last scene. It was funny. A reporter asked him about the greatest mistake he made (or something) and Bush said, after a long pause, we should have write this ahead of time. :)

Here’s a utube video, but this is not the trailer itself. There are lots of trailer in Yutube, but I couldn’t find the one I saw just now. Will look for it again later.

Josh Broolin is W. Directed by Oliver Stone.

This is my 3rd last weekend here in Vancouver, Canada. We didn’t have any plans for today so we just lock ourselves on our room and do whatever it is that we do inside the room.. in my case, blog, surf and play RockBand on PS3.

I also played a couple of stages on Resistance, the free game that comes with the PS3. But mostly I struck the drums and played a couple of songs. I must admit the game is engaging. It’s like playing a real drum as a matter of fact if you have a real drum set you can use that and play along with the game (of course you have to designate the colors to the actual drums)

Songs that I practice today are Hole’s “Celebrirty Skin” and The Konk’s “29 Fingers”.

Chatted with CK and showed him the game console and the drumset. Told him that we will be playing those when I get back.

I can’t wait! Excited.
