FEVER

I'd like to meet:

Due to the growing number of people on my friends list, I've decided to downsize it unfortunately. I'm sorry for doing this but I'm tired of adding up people who wouldn't even bother to message me once in awhile. I do try to really respond/communicate with those whom I've been in touch with since I started to join Myspace so it would be nice if most of you would do the same.

I'm not here to win a popularity contest to see who has the most number of friends. Every Myspace account is unique in its purpose. The purpose of my account is not to have a collection of faces without any importance (though it may seem like it does). It's making a connection. Even if I would like to add up everyone who'd care enough to be on my friends list, I simply cannot as it would defeat the purpose of my page.

The only exceptions to this are "Bands" , "Groups" or "Artists" that I would like to support/join and those that I've added manually.
If you really want to add me up, please have the courtesy to send a message first. It's the least you can do if you want to establish some sort of connection with another person on a networking site. I promise to respond politely if you do the same. What's the point of having a Myspace account if you're not going to converse with anyone, let alone be civil about it?

Nina: The Philippine's Soul Siren I love her voice. I haven't had the chance to see her perform live, unlike my ex-boyfriend who had the privilege of performing with her (He played the violin in his former university's orchestra), but I will soon!

Matthew Perry! I'm strangely attracted to him and he's like sixteen years older than I am! Hehe, but that's only my deep admiration for him as an actor. Mr. Perry is just one of those few people who inspire me still though I'm here and he's there =)
I think he deserves the recognition he gets from his peers nowadays. Such a talented, bright and witty guy with a really big heart ^_~ I support you all the way, Matty!!!

Since I am terribly fascinated with Audrey Hepburn, it's no wonder why I like Donita Rose. She's a splitting image of Audrey, and could very well pass off as a twin! I saw her once when I was in Singapore for a christmas vacation in one of the local malls there, eating at the food court with her mom (or manager). I didn't get the chance to talk to her as I didn't want to interrupt them while they were eating but she really seemed down to earth as she didn't even care if she was eating at a counter table without any chairs. She's a great role model which is why I would definitely love to meet her someday. Adam Sandler
He is such a funny guy. His talent is not only centered in acting and the ability to make people laugh but he's also a great musician as well, which was manifested in "The Wedding Singer" and "50 First Dates". How could you not love the song "Grow old with you"? I just love people who can make me laugh. His movies brigthens up my day.
Evanescence
Their music is haunting. Their songs brings any soul into a sanctuary of rebirth. Amy Lee is amazing.

Robin Williams
I grew up watching his films and each one has shown different ranges of his acting abilities. His wacky antics and heartfelt character roles all contribute to a more sensible reason why I continue to appreciate and respect him because in every one of his works, he shows sincerity.
I also want to meet Ms. Yuu Watase (sensei!).

I actually have seen this amazing woman in the flesh when she came here in the Philippines for the Anime Expo convention held last November of 2000 (Hey, you might've seen me somewhere there in Megamall, hehe!) when FY was a hot commodity and I was one of the lucky ones who got her autograph on one of her FY manga artworks that I owned (She was so sweet. She signed my name on it and even had a bit of a problem writing it hehe!). So meeting her in person again and conversing with her wouldn't be so bad. She's just so amazing.
Just like Quan Bao Ya [or Kwon Boa]. Mostly known as BoA [Beat of Angel]. Korea's pride. The internationally acclaimed Korean pop singer.

I don't even understand Korean yet when I saw her music video "Atlantis Princess" airing on Arirang, I got hooked! Really, she's one talented young lady, and she's a year younger than I am! So much accomplishment at such a young age. Astig! They're both up there, with all the other great women that I admire.
M.Y.M.P (Make Your Momma Proud)
Juris and Chin create beautiful music together. I had the opportunity to see them perform live at a college function though at a distance. I would love it if I could really see them perform at a closer range.
Tori Amos
This woman is extraordinary and it shows through her music.
I also would like to have a chat with the gorgeous Natalie Portman. She does exhibit the same kind of charm and grace that Audrey Hepburn had so maybe that's one big factor why I like her as an actress.


Alicia Keys
She has such expressive eyes and a powerful voice to go with it. Seeing her perform live when she came here last October 2004 was a dream come true. Her music just reaches out to your soul and you're left with this feeling of familiarity. I hope to run into her again someday.

U2
They've been around for decades yet their music still continues to be appreciated by people all around the world. It's amazing how much they've achieved through the years yet still find time to educate people on things that really matter. I hope Bono stays in that track.
If I could be in the same gathering as Stephen King and William Goldman, whom I adore as much as their incredible talent in writing, I would be in a state of ecstasy



Lastly, the one I definitely want to meet is...
