Ok, I've been staying at home like a couch potato but that changed last week. I'm currently improving my vocals for band purposes. I love my teacher he's very experienced and refined with his skills. Ok, I prepared "You Found Me" during practices. Apparently I'm having so much fun even though I make alot of mistakes. Aldz is taking voice lessons too and we plan on rendezvousing around Shangri-La Mall every Friday. I'm taking the band into a semi-alternative route. I'm influenced by Paramore, Marianas Trench, We The Kings, Hey Monday, and VersaEmerge which means I'm sorta gonna experiment on my music. I love how VersaEmerge made "Whisperer" it's kinda like Owl City mixed with Paramore. As of now, I'm writing songs and they're different again. The problem is, the inspiration comes and quickly goes. I need to write everything as soon as I get them. Ok, I running out of words so I'll tell you about this Saturday. This Saturday we plan to have a band jam session @ SM Manila and we're practicing "My Heart- Paramore" for me it's a cool song choice because I'm a Paramore fan. I guess it's a bias. I'm also using this day to test our lead singer's commitment. I don't really know if she wants in or just want it til' we head our separate ways (college). We have Brendon who will be in the 1st year high school the year we start college. Which means, we get to perform even after our 4th year (maybe). For those who don't know him, Bren is our lead guitarist and I may say he's amazing like his sister, they're musically inclined. I'm really beginning to doubt Gab's commitment due to her new and hectic schedule. She recently joined the CMLI which I think is a distraction from valuable practice time. Charlies Siy, the guy who apparently is the one who talked her into it. Ok, I'm not here to question her decisions but I hope this DOES NOT affect band time. We need an open forum for the band. I feel we have thoughts and ideas we like to mention. Now I'm out of words. BYE BLOGGER! for now...

Profile
Aldric Go- Contrasting to my brother, I'm the sensitive, efficient, witty, not-so-organized, academically inclined and reasonable twin. A definite party monster and a rock star. I'm a music geek. I love any but RnB cuz I find the lyrics senseless. The band manager and organizer. I love songwriting though I can't put in the words the way I want it. My music is basically rock, punk rock, post-grunge, acoustic and ballad-like songs. I love songs that could make me tear-up because it means I can REALLY relate to them.
Kanina I go to Glorietta tapos I play TimeZone. Tapos I eat chocolate.

Lumina
Lumina is a band formed around December 2009. The band consists of Gabrielle Ong, Lead Vocals, Aldric Go, Rhythm and Back-Up, Brendon Ong, Lead, Aldrin Go, Bass. With the absence on a drummer,
the band is looking for one. Their debut performance was at the SSHS Quadrangle at December 19, 2009 with High and Iris. The first performance was unsuccessful so they practiced harder and
enter a jingle contest from the Science Club. Fight FoR Peace won first prize for an original song entitled "Save It! (ft. Winona See)". The band is in it's songwriting stages and we plan to record as soon as
we get 7 or 8 songs (original compositions). The band's genre consists of: Pop Rock, Alternative Rock, Acoustic, Pop Punk, Power Ballads and occasionally Christian Songs. The band's main influences are
Paramore, Marianas Trench, The Maine, All-American Rejects, Artist VS Poet and Boys Like Girls. The band is NOT a just a cover band
because we do write our own songs and we also plan to collaborate with people. The band's first song is "Fallen" which is a simple song about love and sadness with Evanescence as an influence. "Fallen" was admired by most classmates which
shows a big success. The band's in it's songwriting stages and plans to pursue the world of music in the near future.
