RANT!!!

I don't hate Rainier, he's a nice guy. But please, I still believe that Jewel is better paired with Paulo Avelino. Last Sunday's SOP made me feel bad. Not only is Paulo not there, but because Jewel is paired with Rainier.

La Liga Tiborxia

It won't be denied.

The Tiborxia Triad has been most helpful for Paulo Avelino fans, and that I completely recognize. I, for one, will never be able to get close to my beloved Pau if not for the trio.

Trooper: Soft spoken but really hilarious. He provides the balance among the three. When the two are at their peak of being jiggly, he gets in with a soft-mannered approach, speaking in a tempo and audio level of utter finesse. But his comments are always precious. If he was an actress, he'd go the Jaclyn Jose route. Underacting effectively.

Karl: I only got the chance to meet Karl once and he's a small bundle of joy. He walks really fast and I had a pretty hard time keeping up with his pace. But really, he's a nice guy, making sure that we get to where we should be. Waiting up until we are all complete (when I say "we", that's with the other Paulonatics). Well, without him, I would have waited outside of the GMA compound all day.

Tiborxia: a.k.a. Teeborxia a.k.a. Tivz. The Queen Bee. The Mother Maiden of the Team. The Crowned Leader of the League. If you want to get close to a star, you have to get close to Tivz. I'm more than happy that we have become friends (because we both love Paulo, but I LOVE PAULO MOOOORE! Hehehehe, seriously, we both love Paulo), even if his affinity with Mart is strong(er) and more pronounced. I'm happy that he also gives his all-out support to Pau. Without Tivz, there is no Kutz. Without Tivz, Kutz and Paulo will never meet.

AT LONG LAST!! (Meeting Paulo)

So, how was meeting Pau? You might ask.

Going back, at the rehearsals, I patiently waited for their break. I was standing with Tivz the whole time and am trying to contain my excitement.

And then, it was time... Paulo came out and after Tivz told him that it is I, Kutz, meeting him. He said... "Finally, we meet." Awwwwwww. My heart melted. My day was made.

There was a clincher though, 30 seconds after talking to Tivz earlier, I was called to attend a lunch meeting.

So, I only spoke to Pau for about a few minutes, had a few pictures taken and I was off to the meeting.

But, you know? That short time was more than enough to fill my heart with joy. I'm not overacting. Or trying to blow this out of proportion. You must understand, I am a verrrry huge fan. And a few moments with Pau will last me a lifetime.

All I know. I am extremely happy. And inspired. And hopeful that I get to be with Paulo again.

With this, some Thank you's:
Ricola (for giving me Manny's number)
Manny (for being open to helping me)
Karl (for helping me get in)
that guard at 711 (for letting me use their parking space)
Tivz (for getting me into the rehearsals studio, introducing me to Pau)
and
Paulo (for being gracious in talking to me and for being the nice person that he is)

I have promised to support you in all ways possible and you can hold on to me with that promise.

AT LONG LAST!!!

I have started this blog at around May, but way before that, I have long expressed my opinion on my support to Pau. "All the way" may be apt, but that is just not enough as a description.

For the longest time, I have wished to talk to Pau personally, steal a peck on the cheek and simple just let him know that I exist. That my perennial support for him is not imaginary in nature. I'm a true-blood, real supporter. No qualms. No restrictions. No limits. No reconsiderations. No conditions.

Today, part of my long-time dream, has come true. I HAVE FINALLY MET PAU!

First, a little overview:
I have been (terribly/incredibly) busy the past weeks since transferring offices (and position, hehehe) and I have unfortunately neglected one of the surviving sources of my happiness: being a paulo-natic. My last post was June and now it's August. It's more than a month since I have expressed my adulation for my (our) demi-god/prince charming/angel/knight. And it made me feel incomplete, although I have only realized that some days ago. I have immersed myself too much on my work (and my boyfriend, whom by the way I have had broken up with already, but that's a different story), that I have forgotten about Pau. And now, with a little time management, I can now juggle my schedule and my Paulo-addiction (please, this is a good type of addiction). So, last week, I was able to peek at Paulo's forum at igma (I think it was a Thursday), and it was then that I found out that Paulo will be appearing at SOP the following Sunday (August 5, 2007). And after asking Paulo about it, I have confirmed it. He is, indeed appearing on the said date! Lo and behold, I had to access all the people I know to find a way to get into the show! I sms-ed Ricola for Manny's number and sought his assistance, which he obliged, and being the semi-paranoid self that I am, I also sms-ed Tivz, and he then, gave me Karl's number who also expressed willingness to help me. I was so excited, I even told Pau about this and he also said that he's willing to meet me on that date.

Two nights of restlessness ensued before Sunday.

Sunday: August 5, 2007:
D-day
You can not imagine how hyper I was on this day. I got up early (for a Sunday) and prepared for SOP. I was off to the studio by 8:00 AM to meet with Karl by 9:00 AM. By 8:20 I was at 711 at Timog to wait for further instructions. So, I left my car to walk at the visitor's gate by 9:00 AM. By past 10:00 AM, I was so restless that I called Karl several times because I was feeling tense with what was going to happen. Thoughts ran through my mind. Will I be able to get in? What if Karl forgot? What if Paulo snobs me? I was finally appeased when I finally met Karl, who was such an angel, and accompanied us (we were with happyjam, denmark and... I'm sorry I can't rattle off your names, I'm slow at this and I easily forget names) to the studio. The place was jampacked! And I started to feel uneasy. How on earth will I get to see Pau with all this ruckus?! Then came Tivz. I started sms-ing him at 9 or 10:00 AM and asked him if he could help me with Pau, and promised to do so. One message from Tivz made my heart leap: at 10:37 AM: "Hnanap k ni pau". I was already inside the studio so I panicked, I started calling Tivz. So he told me to stay put and he will come to me. I was shaking. And then I saw Tivz, he told me to come with him. We went into the GMA building, up to where the rehearsals are being done and there he was... Paulo Avelino. In the flesh.
