I AM



Greetings Earthlings!

I am Beverly Kho living in North side, Manila.
My name means "Woman from the beaver meadow" which explains why I look like this.
I have once lived with Anne Frank back in the 1930's. I am allergic to powder and as a result, I have never felt non-sticky.
I have my own river named 'Emotion'. I have once felt isolated from this world and tried to fit in with the Egyptians.

If anybody has anymore questions beyond art, music, duplication, relevance, obsessions, literature,
heartbreak, disillusionment, love, death, the future, confusion, delusions, homosexuals, sleep machines,
mundanes, eco-friendly and vegetarians, please don't Google my name or ask your "friend who knows about me".
Call me at your Mom's house, I'll be there having a powder party.

Ok, enough about that. As you can see, this blog is filled with Incubus that's because
I AM a big big fan of them. I look up to them and they serve as my inspiration (Sometimes my distraction. Hi Brandon)

Besides BB and Incubus, I enjoy the sights of...
...FASHION
...ART
...MUSIC
...TRAVEL

Oh, and by the way, if your not using Mozilla Firefox, you won't be able to view my posts.

Cheers!

INSPIRATION
"The world is a drought when out of love
Please come back to us
You're all of the above
I'm making a choice to be out of touch
Leave me be he said, he said, he said,
Leave me here in my stark, raving, sick, sad little world!"


"We're both aligned in framed of mind but circumstance has got us good
And now you’re seeing a side of me I wished no one ever would
Yeah, if it's right to pick a fight, we’re fingers in a sugar bowl
Love isn’t perfect, even diamonds start out as coal"


"Should I apologize
If what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes?
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well!"


"I suggest we learn to love ourselves before it's made illegal
When will we learn? When will we change?
Just in time to see it all come down..."


"Was it something I said
Something I read and manifested that's getting you down
Don't you dare come to bed with that ambiguous look in your eye
I'd sooner sleep by an open fire and wake up fried"


"There's something about the look in your eyes
Something I noticed when the light was just right
It reminded me twice that I was alive
And it reminded me that you're so worth the fight"


"Could there be a familiar ring every time I sing about.
Cycle the tears everything in life no doubt I, I.
Reiterate till my jaw is offset,
But I'll say it again anyway,
What you give is what you get!"


"I take a look around; it´s evident the scene has changed.
And there are times when I feel improved, improved upon the past.
Then there are times when I can´t seem to understand at all
and yes it seems as though I´m goin nowhere...
really fucking fast, nowhere fast."


"I'm thinking of my soul severity
And I know everything you hate in me
Fill me up with over-pious badgerate
Throw them up; one of my favorite things"


"I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen, its' unkind but
If I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone"


"Hello!? I'm trying to focus
But my eyes deceive me.
Focus. I'm witnessing history...repeating."


"Picture the scene, where whatever you thought,
would, in the blink of an eye, manifest and become illustrated.
You'd be sure man that every line drawn reflected a life that you loved
not an existence that you hated.
So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture, now we're drowning in the paint.
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about,
before the picture we painted chews us up and spits us out."


"There'd be no one to answer to
and complicate our lives,
we could be
the epitome of self sufficience."


"It isn't fair to mention, but it awes the crowd
Your fictional, plastic alibi
So take another hit, steal another line
Did you ever meet a leech who was good at goodbyes?"


"In my fantasy, I’m a Pantomime
I'll just move my hands and everyone sees what I mean
Words are too messy, and it’s way past time
To end in my mouth paint my face white and tried
To reinvent the sea, one wave a time
Speak without my voice and see the world by candlelight"


"I saw you standing in my headlights
I thought I’d run you down for the weight you left on me
Instead I punched rewind, reversed and drove away
And seeing you disappear in my rear view
brought to me the word 'reciprocity'"


"You stare at me like I'm a vitamin.
On the surface you hate,
but you know you need me.
I come dressed as any pill you deem fit.
Whatever helps you swallow the truth
all the more easily"


"My secret arsenal
is an infinite, ageless inkwell
it's a fountian of youth
and a patriot's weapon of choice."


"Enough bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and evolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you’re not paying attention
It's too good, it's too good, not to have an effect"


"I see you in line, dragging your feet
you have my sympathy.
The day you were born, you were born free.
That is your privilege."


"Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)"


"I'm at the end of my report again
For those who won't do apathy
You had the perfect opportunity
But plead the fifth and walked away"


"What if I was just dreaming? What if I lived in a pear?
What if I had a mustard drenched cucumber tied to my leg."


"Disconnect and let me drift until my upside down is right side in
Society must let the artist go to wander off into the nebula"


"Two weeks without my lover,
I'm in this boat alone
Floating down a river named Emotion
Will I make it back to shore or drift into the unknown."


"If this is right, I'd rather be wrong.
If this is sight, I'd rather be blind."


"Out of line, and indivisible
A crow left of the murder
Every piece contains a map of it all"


"You came, you saw, you conquered...everyone
And I'm left here guessing
Oh what went wrong"


"Kiss the sand goodbye because
the tide is coming up and in
yeah, water, water, water everywhere
and every chance to sink!"


"High fives to a better judgment
By saying less today, I will gain more
Low twos to you my fickle friend
Who brought the art of silent war"


"Some people fall in love and touch the sky
Some people fall in love and find quicksand
I hover somewhere in between
I swear…
I can’t make up my mind."


"Wake up everyone
How can you sleep at a time like this
Unless the dreamer is the real you
Listen to your voice
The one that tells you to taste past the tip of your tongue
Leap and the net will appear."


"I dream
that someday we'll be able to look back
on this together and say
It was for the best and that it
made us stronger today."


"All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again."


"He said Hey Sister.
It’s really really nice to meet ya.
I just met this 5 foot 7 guy who’s just my type.
I like the way he’s speaking his confidence is peaking.
Don’t like his baggy jeans but Imma like what’s underneath it.
And no I aint been to MIA
I heard that Cali never rains and New York heart awaits.
First let’s see the west end.
I’ll show you to my bridrens.
I’m likin' this American Boy. American Boy."


"You better think fast, think fast
'Cause you never know what's coming round the bend.
You better not blink, or breathe.
For consequence is a bigger word than you think."


"Put down your hollow tips
And kiss your lover's lips
And know that fate is what you make of it."


"'Cause' what I want
and what I need
is and will always be free."

TALK TO ME






LOOK BACK

I CAN SEE YOU

Aspiring...

I love art.
Photography is art.
Photography speaks in its own way.

Everybody's into photography right now 'coz photography is 'in' but I don't think of it as that way, photography is somehow an illustration of feelings and emotions. It is not for show.

...and I will not let anyone get into my mind about me being an aspiring photographer.
Say whatever you want, I'll be listening. :)

Here are some of my 'works' as I may call it.
Some are raw and some are edited though.

Gear: Olympus E410, 14-42 lens, 1/500, f3.5

"Indistinct"


"Point of View"


"Silhouette"


"Peeping Tom"


"Dark"


"Dusk"


"Empty light"


"Street Lights"


"Blue Sky"


"Behind the Sound"


"Idiot Box"


"Free"


"Motion"


"Joy"


"Sunset Daze"


"Coast"

I'll upgrade soon. ;)

I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away...

Oh hell no you didn't!

Ok, while browsing the TV channels, something caught my eye and I stopped. Calalily's music video, "Ako'y Babalik". What caught my eye? No, it's not their crappy sound. It's the vocalist. He's 'trying' to imitate Brandon Boyd. He even has the exact same outfit Brandon wore and the moves mann. Oh puhleeaasse.
He's not even half the perfectness of B. I've heard some stuff here and there that Calalilly vocalist is imitating Boyd but I didn't bother checking. But this one, I don't know. It kinda annoys me. Haha.


Want proof?

(Left: Brandon Boyd, Right: Screen shot taken from their music video)

Now try watching the music video. I know it's hard, but just try to. Haha. Compare his moves with Boyd's. You'll see some imitation happening. Haha.

"Ako'y Babalik" - Calalily


"Megalomaniac (Live)" - Incubus


He sure has some originality!
Two words, DREAM ON.

YEYYYEERR.


No, you are not dreaming.
Rihanna and Chris Brown LIVE in Manila! I asked P to buy tickets for me. Actually, I haven't asked my parents yet if I can go.
Ok, so here's the plan, parents say yes, GO!, parents say no, sell tickets for high price. Haha.
Scalper menn.
Oh and besides, the venue is in Bonifacio Global, Taguig, and that's like 0 seconds away from me!
I liked Chris Brown before and yes, I do wanna see him live and Rihanna too! But this would all be better if T.I. is included! He is one fine black man. Hahahaha. No, seriously.

I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away...

Pictures worth gazillion words

September 17
Platinum! Babe!

Right before our cheering practice, we decided to stop by Platinum karaoke. You all know that karaoke is not my favorite thing to do but it was surprisingly fun 'coz I was with my friends. We had a blast! Reba, being a Korean "fanatic" talked us into going to Platinum 'coz according to her, this place is where the Koreans at! Hahaha.


September 23
Graduation picture day!

After our graduation picture taking, we decided to go stop by Starbucks before attending cheer practice. Upon attending the practice, the place was dull, people were lying on the floor. In short, no cheer spirit. Haha. So we decided NOT to practice and just lay around. I won't mention all the drama that happened 'coz for me it was immature and senseless.


September 24
Happy Birthday, Bei!

You're now 16! Sweeeeet sixteeen! September 24 will be one of the dates stamped in my head until year 3000! I promise you that. Hahaha. Oh, and you better tag 'bout this one, Bei!


September 30
IRRI is the shit!

Had a field trip in IRRI, UP Los Banos. The film showing was BOOORRRIINNGG. Just had to sleep at that part. Pretty much roamed around the museum and took pictures! Hello, bus-to-bus conversations. UGH.


October 7
Happy Birthday, Baron!

October 7, 1998
You do the math. This is my little brother Baron. He's cute and he's...fat. Wait till you see him in person! Hahaha. Didn't get to capture a picture of him during his birthday party. He was too busy being amazed with the magic show.


August 25 - October 8
Life as a cheerleader...

...sucks! Nah. Haha. Cheering practices every other day and Saturdays. Splits, herkies, bridges, jumps, straddles, kicks here and there! But behind all this is one person, one genius person who pretty much constructed our whole routine. And that is none other than Ate Melai, our choreographer.
We love you!


August something...(sorry, forgot the date.)
Crazy beautiful.

One random cheer practice day where we decided to shoot extraordinary pictures. Haha. The first picture just gives you a sneak peek on our everyday doings. ;)


October 9 and 10
Intramurals 08-09!

GO Yellow Tigers! This was my favorite team out of all the four teams I've experienced working with. I have to say, this one's the best.

TIGERS!
What?
TIGERS!

What?
T-I-G-E-R-S

GO TIGERS!


We may not be champions but we are champions in our own little way. :)


Video of our cheering performance soon!

Effect of being engaged.

Got'cha! Haha.

Ok, so I just finished typing some of the requirements in our engagement game. The journal, reception, church, vows, etc. I will post about the whole thing when I'm done.


MUST. STOP. IMAGINING. BRANDON. AS. HUSBAND.

...ok, I can't.

I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away...

Forgotten but not forgotten

Noticed that I haven't been blogging about the Incu-monthsaries I promised to mark every 8th and 9th of the month? Well, I admit I had forgotten due to the past busy months.

I won't let conflicts ruin my consistency of posting my Incu-monthsaries.
Talk about obsessed? Haha.

Here goes...

September 8

"You came, you saw, you conquered...everyone
And I'm left here guessing oh what went wrong."


September 9

"Enough bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and evolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected you're not paying attention
It's too good, It's too good not to have an effect!"


October 8

"There's something about the look in your eyes
Something I noticed when the light was just right
It reminded me twice that I was alive
And it reminded me that you're so worth the fight."


October 9

"You do something to me that I can't explain.
So would I be out of line if I said 'I miss you'?"


See? I haven't forgotten.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANJELA CELSO!
