funny story/shameless name dropping

so about 4 years ago i was vacationing with my family, along with the families of my tita pilar and tita elvira (my mom's friends).

one night when we were all gathered, tita elvira's son starts playing guitar and singing some songs he wrote. soon after, my mom asks me to play something for everyone.

only problem is, tita elvira's son is GABE FRIGGIN' BONDOC.

sooo... long story short, i did play one of my songs, most of which are sad (in many ways) and simple, in comparison. i dunno how it sounded, but it definitely felt like amateur night.

don't get me wrong, gabe is honestly a cool ass guy. but sometimes when he plays... well, he might as well just cut my feeble, unworthy hand off, never to play my mere mortal ditties in his presence... and then play a ridiculous speed metal solo with a flaming ax made of gold... and then defeat the British with fireballs from his eyes and lightning bolts from his ass...

btw, is it just me or is that word verification thing below this comment box getting longer? next thing we know it's gonna be 50 characters long with crazy symbols you'll only find by typing CTRL + ALT + [insert a combination of numbers here]
