Remember Me Through Flash Photography and Screams

The Beholder

Regina is twenty-two. She has a love-hate relationship with Manille, the city in which she lives with her pet bunny. She loves rock & roll, tries to write, takes lots of pictures, and dreams of Canon L-glass. This is her almost daily, non-serious photoblog.

“AFK,” Pinback

Miles and miles of telephone poles / Fallen and tossed around / I can’t talk to you anymore / And I miss you / And I miss you / Not in a Slint way, but I miss you…

I still owe FDG big time for introducing me to this band during Doc&Pub Listening Room sessions in sophomore year.

Hello! I figured it was about time for an introduction of sorts, for all the lovely new folks following me (like I don’t talk enough in my Formspring posts), or a reintroduction for those who have been here a while. After all, I haven’t written a proper introduction since January. :)
My name is Regina. I’m a 22-year-old nobody (twenty-two on my birth certificate, fourteen in the face, and sixteen in terms of life experience, but forty in the heart) from Manila, Philippines who spends altogether too much time on the Internet. I live with my rabbit, and my parents. As of this post, I’m an unemployed Communication Arts graduate, but I do contribute to a few publications. (And I’ll be jobhunting in a couple of weeks.)
My favorite band is Placebo. I’ve loved them since I was 12. I like music in general. I like to take pictures, and to everyone who’s asked, I shoot with a Canon EOS 5D Mark II, and no, I’m not a professional, and I don’t plan to ever go pro. Photography is just a hobby. Chances are, the advice I give you (when you ask) is bad advice because I don’t know anything, really.
I stalk Neil Gaiman whenever he is in the Philippines. He likes to offer hugs after he signs your stuff. I like to accept these hugs. He kissed me on the cheek once and I haven’t washed that cheek since. (I kid.)
I go to gigs on weekends and I follow Pedicab around because I like to dance, even though I suck at it. I’m a big fan of our local music scene and I think we are a very talented people.
I believe in a thing called love.
Other than that, there really isn’t much else to talk about, but if you can think of anything, Formspring me and I’ll get back to you on Friday. You guys overwhelm me. I love you so.
