The Voice Season 5 Live Playoffs Results Forecast

2013-11-07T11:04:00.000-08:00

Tomorrow's gonna be the results show of The Voice Season 5 Live Playoffs last Monday and Tuesday.

2 from each team will be going home. Here are my fearless forecasts.

Team Adam:

James Wolpert and Tessanne Chin will be the top 2 vote getters from this team. James has a very good iTunes sales which will secure him a spot. Among Will Champlin, Preston Phol and Grey, in my opinion, Will gave the better performance and I hope Adam will consider that and put him through.

Team Ceelo:

Caroline Pennel is my favorite from this team and I'm pretty sure she will get a spot. Jonny Gray would be the second top vote getter. My guess would be, Ceelo will pick Kat Robichaud to go through and we'll say goodbye to Amber Nicole and Tamara Chauniece.

Team Christina:

Matthew Schuler and Jacquie Lee both gave incredible performances and I think these two will get the most votes. I hope Christina will pick Josh Logan to complete her team. Stephanie Anne Johnson and Olivia Henken will be going home.

Team Blake:

It's really hard to select who's top and who's going home from this team except from Nic Hawk which I'm pretty sure he'll be eliminated tomorrow. Cole Vosbury and Ray Budreaux will get the most votes. If Blake will choose between Austin Jenckes and Shelbie Z, I think Blake will choose Shelbie to go through.

Well, this is just my opinion but I might still be wrong like last year. All of my choices are wrong. Let's see tomorrow.

Happy birthday to these 2 amazing brothers, Daniel and Alejandro!

Gavin DeGraw - I Don't Want To Be

2013-10-02T23:42:00.001-07:00

I can't remember where I've heard this but I like this song. At first, I actually thought it's a Maroon 5 song.

October Goals

2013-09-30T19:41:00.000-07:00

It's October 1st! 3 more months before the year ends. Time really flies fast. It's been a while since I posted here and since this is the first day of the month, I guess this would be the best time to start over. I won't wait for next year to start anew.

There are many things I want to accomplish and setting my goals would give me a clear view on what would I want to achieve this month and moving forward. So, let's start with this month.

These are my goals for this month:
> 0% Absenteeism rate at work. I would really do my best not to be tardy again.
> Pass all my metrics for this month. If not, I should pass the number of inbound calls that I should take. That's 60 for this month, so I should be taking at least 3 calls per day.
> My laundry should be clear by the end of my last rest day for the week.
> Go to church at least once a week.
> Expense manager should be filled up everyday.
> Jog at least once a week.
> Play badminton at least twice a month.
> Clean the room everyday.
> Study telecommunications.
> Cook 3 new dishes.
> Deposit 2 Thousand pesos in BDO.
> Post in this blog at least everyday.

The Voice Season 4 Top 12 Forecast

2013-05-08T18:55:00.000-07:00

I haven't watched the 2 episodes of The Voice Season 4- The Live Play offs yet. Today is the results night and I don't want to be spoiled, not just yet.

So before I read those spoilers, I'll make some predictions myself and I would just based it on their past performances.

Team Blake

These four contestants from Blake's team are really good. I really want the Swon Brothers to go through but I don't think they will get enough votes. So I'm guessing that Holly Tucker will get the most number of votes. The Swon Brothers will still be my choice for the 2nd, and it would be between Justin Rivers and Danielle Bradbery for the coach's pick. If they will be the bottom two, basing on how Blake picks from the last seasons, I have a feeling that he will choose Danielle Bradbery over Justin Rivers. I still believe though that Blake will see how good Justin River is and will put him through. This will be my top three for Team Blake

Holly Tucker
The Swon Brothers
Justin Rivers

Eliminated: Danielle Bradbery

Team Usher

I don't think this Usher's team is as strong as the other three. If he had chosen Ryan Innes instead of Cathia, he might stand a chance. I think Josiah Hawley will get the most number of votes. Well, the teens might have voted for him like crazy. Cathia will be the 2nd. She's beautiful and can really sing. The bottom two would be VEDO and Michelle Chamuel, with Michelle getting the boot.

Here's my prediction for Team Usher:

Josiah Hawley
Cathia
VEDO

Eliminated: Michelle Chamuel

Team Shakira

This is an interesting team, with two of her finalists stolen from Team Adam. Sasha Allen will get the most number of votes. I think that among them, she's the one who can stay longer in the competition. I'm not sure who will place second. Karina Iglesias is good but I don't think she can get as much votes as Garrett Gardner and Kris Thomas. But in case Karina Iglesias will be on the bottom two, Shakira might pick her to move forward with her team. And if it's Garrett, I can remember Shakira said that he has a soft spot for Garrett in her heart, so she might choose him as well.

My prediction for Team Shakira:

Sasha Allen
Garrett Gardner
Karina Iglesias

Eliminated: Kris Thomas

Team Adam

Now, this is the team to beat. All four them are incredibly good. Judith Hill is my least favorite though. I don't think though that The Voice will let her go because from the beginning, it looks like she is being groomed to win the whole thing. She's just so overrated. Sarah Simmons is also amazing. Caroline Glaser is my favorite though. There's something unique in her voice and I think she would really go a long way. I think Judith Hill will get the most number of votes and it would be Amber and Caroline in the bottom two. I hope Adam will pick Caroline if this will be the case. I'm sure that Sarah will go through. I'm still torn between Amber and Caroline for the bottom two. But since Caroline was just stolen, Adam might choose Amber.

Here's what I want to happen. The top 3 would be Caroline Glaser, Sarah Simmons and Amber Carrington. Judith Hill will be eliminated.

But checking reality, this, I think would be the result:

Judith Hill
Sarah Simmons
Amber Carrington

Eliminated: Caroline Glaser

Cassadee Pope - Over You

2013-05-06T17:27:00.001-07:00

Here's the performance of Cassadee Pope that I'm talking about. She sang it with great voice and passion. That's indeed my favorite performance from The Voice Season 3 and she deserves the title.

Miranda Lambert - Over You

2013-05-06T17:18:00.001-07:00

Since I'm scanning through the nominees of the CMT Music Awards, I can't help but notice this song. I know Miranda Lambert already won numerous awards with this song. Also, this is the first time I've actually watched the video. This song was introduced to me by Cassadee Pope when she performed it in The Voice Season 3, and that's my favorite performance of the season.

Hunter Hayes - "Wanted" (Official Video)

2013-05-06T17:09:00.001-07:00

I heard this song a couple of times in reality shows. This is the first time I've seen this video since I got curious when I checked out the nominees for the CMT Music Awards, and this song is one of them. As far as I can remember, Dez Duron from The Voice Season 3 sang this song. It's really a good song and looks like this will be an addition to my playlist.

First Day of Go Live

2013-05-06T16:52:00.002-07:00

Last night was our Go Live date in production and it's my first night shift after 2 years. I survived, and more days to come. I'm still not confident with what I'm doing in my job. I can't imagine taking what will I do once we started taking incoming calls. My job is not as easy as my previous jobs. Well, this is a job for Network Engineers. I just hope that I'll stay longer in this company because I really want to work here in Accenture. This is the company that I can be proud of. I just hope that my brain will function very well so that I can absorb all the things that I need to learn to perform my job better. Networking is really not my thing. My job just needs analysis so I really need my brain to work out. I'm just motivating myself that I want to stay in Accenture for more than 5 years.

Boyce Avenue (Musicfest 2010- Cebu, Philippines)

2013-04-20T10:51:00.001-07:00

I just found this somewhere in YouTube and this reminded me of that night 3 years ago. I hope Boyce Avenue will come back here in the Philippines. I want to see them perform live again. :D

Out Alive Tour - April 19th

2013-04-20T10:39:00.001-07:00

I hope there would be an Out Alive Tour in the Philippines as well and I swear I'll buy the VIP ticket. I just can't get enough of the songs from the Thank You Camellia album and hearing them live would be really awesome.

Lee DeWyze "Silver Lining" Live In-Studio

The Script - Nothing

2013-03-30T09:55:00.001-07:00

The Script will be having their second concert tonight in Manila. I really want to watch the concert. :(

The Lumineers - Ho Hey (Official Video)

2013-03-25T09:06:00.001-07:00

And here's the original video of Ho Hey.

The Lumineers - Ho Hey (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover) with Lyrics

2013-03-25T09:02:00.001-07:00

You won't hear "Ho!" and "Hey!" but they are creatively substituted by their musical instruments.

Lyrics:

I've been trying to do it right
I've been living a lonely life
I've been sleeping here instead
I've been sleeping in my bed,
I've been sleeping in my bed

So show me family
All the blood that I will bleed
I dunno where I belong
I dunno where I went wrong
But I can write a song

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

I don't think you're right for him
Think of what it might have been if you
Took a bus to China Town
I'd be standing on Canal
And Bowery
And she'd be standing next to me

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

Love ‒ we need it now
Let's hope for some
Cause oh, we're bleeding out

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet whoahhh
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, and you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

Ho Hey Lyrics by Boyce Avenue

Phillip Phillips - Gone, Gone, Gone

2013-03-23T11:07:00.001-07:00

I've first heard the song in American Idol Season 12 and this would then be used as the Exit Song. I'm not that big of a fan but I like his songs. Too bad, no finalist this season has the likes of Phillip Phillips, Lee Dewyze and Kris Allen.

Day 2 - Day 5 at ACN

2013-03-22T12:39:00.003-07:00

March 19

Today's the day we met our Trainer. I also formally met my colleagues who will be with me through the whole course of the training period. We had our pre-process training.

March 20

This day marked the end of the pre-process training and we had a short assessment afterwards. I got 64 out of 65. My only mistake was I wrote "Lousianna" instead of "Louisiana."

March 21-22

These days gave me like an overview of what I would really be doing after the training. I'll be a NETWORK ENGINEER. This would really be a challenging job. Hopefully I will pass the training because I would really want to stay with this company for more than 5 years.

First Encounter with Lego House

2013-03-22T12:32:00.001-07:00

I know this video was posted almost two years ago but this is the first that I actually watched this video. I was able to listen to the whole song because Boyce Avenue made a cover of this. I also heard that Ed Sheeran looks like Rupert Grint, so when I watched this, I said to myself that Ed Sheeran really looks like Rupert Grint. But wait, the resemblance is very close and I think that's really Ron Weasley himself. And that's right, he's the real Rupert Grint. It's a nice and funny video. Kudos to whoever thought about it.

Day 1

2013-03-18T23:14:00.000-07:00

March 18, 2013

First day of work! We had our New Joiners' Orienation (NJO) at the Ebloc2 Bldg in IT Park from 1PM to 10PM. This site is actually nice and very conducive for working. On this day, I learned that my project will be V****** (can't really disclose it). The first day is just the typical orientation wherein you'll know more about the company you will be working for. Tomorrow, we'll be reporting in Robinson's Cybergate by 10 AM.

New Job Starts Tomorrow

2013-03-17T03:57:00.001-07:00

Tomorrow will be my first day at Accenture! Finally I'll be idle no more. Hope everything goes well with this new company.
