This is not an I-Fad: Sansa Fuze MP3 Player

The thing about me is I dislike riding the bandwagon. Before I-Pod became a household name I've been always planning to buy one of these expensive gadgets but for different reasons (mostly just being frugal) and after years of drooling everytime I pass by techie stores, I still don't have one as of now. Nowadays, almost every joe and jane proudly wear the trademark white I-pod earphones around their neck like it's a part of their office uniform. I've lost my craving for these "mainstream" mp3 player. But as fate would have it, a new temptation has come along... Sansa's FUZE. Mannn... with my midyear BONUS just around the corner I can't help but look at the possibility of owning one of these babies but then again my alter ego (Mr. Cheapskates) will takeover in this trying time. Here is an in-depth review if you're looking for a quality alternative to the overrated I-pod.

Lifehouse in Manila!

I've never been in a live concert for a simple reason: I haven't found anything worthwhile to see. While listening to Good Times with Mo, I heard that they're giving away free tickets to the Lifehouse “You and Me Live in Manila” Concert. I couldn't believe my ears. Lifehouse!? THE BAND who's CD No Name Face never left my CD Player for months!? THE BAND who I dreamed of someday will perform my official wedding song?! THE BAND who's on my Top 10 list of greatest band of all time!? Somebody slap me on the face please! I wouldn't miss this for the world!!! Right now I can see myself singing out loud to "Hanging in a Moment", holding hands with my girl through "You and Me" and "Take Me Away" (which I hope they play in acoustic) and having goosebumps with the haunting melody of "Everything".
