I must say I've never had the opportunity to hear popular music from the Phillipines.

So..Raven..you should hook me up with some names of good groups/artists. I need to expand my horizons once more.

Awesome! If it weren't late, and there wasn't school tommorow I'd see about searching for them. But I don't work tommorow night, so we'll see about it then.

I think I'll do a feature or something in my next "proStyle" column on MorningMayo. That is after I do a bit more research, and get this music.

Thanks a lot, Raven.

Where have you been, anyway?

But, anyway..how can you not like Lea? I love her! Well.not love as such, but you know what I mean.

Yeah, I know what you mean.
Anyway, it's because I'm a rock fan =)
