A short while worth the 2 Year Wait

      Finally after everyone's busy schedule in work and school. We managed to get together for our dear friend who came back to the Philippines for vacation all the way from Canada.

  

      It was her intention to surprise us so his boyfriend posted about a get together that day because he would be bringing a surprise guest. I kinda felt it was gonna be Ninia so i had to go and make sure. Went to Moa with them, just like the frosh days where we used to hang out  there by the bay on our free time w/ friends from the block. Our Favorite Spot at the Mall of Asia well the Bay Area:) We usually hang out there to watch the sunset

         I really missed her since she left 2 years ago back when we were in our second year of studying the same course. She left for canada leaving a year of subjects in college. We usually have catch up talks specially those weary days i had with BBM but its different of course if you see her personally already. We used to listen to the same music during writting period as our professor allows us to listen to music to set our mood. Shes definitely one of my best buds in college.Listening to all her stories when she got back to visit, I am so happy of what she is doing and achieved in her life journey.

             Ninia & her boyfriend Iel took their ride up at the MOA eye. I admire this couple so much because despite the long distance relationship they have, they still are as sweet as the first time they were together. 2 years that they were apart and a few weeks to be together, thats what you call love right there. Even if there were problems encountered they still keep the love for each other burning. They trust each other so much & understand both situations. They should be a good example to other couples out there.

XOXO

2 by Guerrero "The Opening Show"

          May 18, 2013 around 11:30am Seventh Stage Production had its first showing of 2 by Guerrero at SM San Lazaro. 2 by Guerrero: are two, one act plays written by National Artist Wilfrido Ma. Guerrero.

          First on stage was a heavy drama of Gonzalo ,Nita & Adrian, Three Rats. I played the role of Nita the adultress. Being my legit stage play i would say that playing the role of Nita is so far the most challenging role i've done in a few months ive been trying to pursue this acting career. Ive done a lot of the "sweet sweetan"/tweetums roles but not as heavy as this one. Malalim ang hugot sa role na ito at inaaamin ko na sobra ako nahirapan ako magbigay ganap kay nita.It was a big sturdy wall of consciousness i had to break to bring her out. I had to separate my real self to Nita who is far away from the real me. I had to forget who I am to be consistent in doing Nita. I had to show everyone who Nita is. Everyone has to see Nita in order for me to Pull it off.

           There were good and bad consequences of playing the role too. For the bad thing well I say theres always a first time to be hated but it really gets to me from time to time. I just think that i was succesfull in portraying Nita and they see Nita, besides no one should have the right to judge a person without personally trying to get to know him/her. Maybe thats the only not really that bad but somehow just affected me but there is still a good thing with that event because i learned to be strong but still be able to feel. For the GOOD well it is such a wonderful experience and i learned so much. I learned to squeeze out everything and give it all. forget who you are and allow yourself to transform into character. Break the walls of consciousness, I had a chance to get to know my co- actors. I got to see how the Star Magic Artists I was working with were in person. I am happy to see the real them.I learned to love acting more than i do now .

         Mehran Khaledi (Model/ Actor) was my Gonzalo. He played the role of my husband . Yves Flores was my dearest adrian and adrian's best friend. I am very thankful to this men because they helped me a lot in characterization. Thank you for being so patient.  The second act was Basketball Fight staring a love team that originated from PBB Teens,Alec Dungo &  Jai Agpangan. Marc Alcala & Vince Ricafrentte played as their Moms. This story is much lighter in comparison w/ Three Rats . Basketball Fight will get those hearts tickled as you watch the love story of Pepito and Alicia. Even if they come from the Rival schools every UAAP season Ateneo & DLSU they still manage to save their relationship and continue on with their happy ever after.

        Thank You so much Seventh Stage Production. Direk Mel Magno & Direk Francis who patiently squeezed my emotions out of me.  Thank you for giving me this opportunity...

2 by Guerrero: Rehearsal Blues

         A  blog entry about the last 2 days before our opening show and im loaded w/ things to say. My feelings that time, my journey to the character and the pressure i feel until the hour of our performances

       OH no we have 2 nights left before our opening show. Well my hold of my character is still not tight. I shall focus relax and internalize for me to be able to get that character on stage. Been weeks that ive been literally thrown around in rehearsing some scenes. Even ive got wounds and bruises i try to endure the pain cause i know this is for my own training as an actress. Like i always say No Pain No Gain.I actually felt pressure, i get to the poing of asking myself, will I be able to make Nita live when im on stage?

      This is what I like after rehearsals. Cast Bonding! for this Jai asked for a workout for me but apparently she only lasted like less than 30 minutes. The cast bonding is like my cool down before i head home. After all the challenges i have to face for the role. After all the pressure to transform into character when you are acting on stage. Its just good to chill around and talk to them.

      Since it was also brylle's bday we decided to have a food trip in Timog! haha unlucky Yves went home already he wasnt able to join us. I really had fun w/ our joy ride. It was once crazy ride on the way to timog for snacks.

        It was Jai who first introduced us to this side street cafe. She found it while walking one morning. They have fresh Fruit shakes. I got Melon for myself, sharks fin & Siomai. Whats funny is that while we were snacking the cast of Basketball Fight segment were throwing lines. I was kinda OP hello my two leading men were not around so who do i throwlines with. This calls for a Repeat!i super had fun!

       I know all the JaLec Fans are gonna love this stolen Photo i took. We were all called in 11 Pm for setup, technicals and rehearsals but while stage set up was being done. I inflated my air bed lay down for a while to rest before our stage run. I stood up to get something from my suitcase and boom! next thing i know alec was having a candy crush moment with jai! i cant help but be kilig because they have chemistry when they act & i like how they are in character still off stage. In this photo i think Alec was teaching Jai to candy crush! as far as i know they are both new in trying out the game:)Sweet right? Thats how Alicia & Pepito is! In character parin sila even off stage. That makes a good actor & Actress.

        These are just a few stories to share on our journey to give you guys a Good show. Sleepless nights, Malalalim na Hugot for me, The effort to be into character, The effort and emotion we bring out to move & affect you, to touch your heart with the tragic story of Adrian Nita & Gonzalo until you cool down with the light and happy feel of basketball fight.

XOXO
