Exactly a year had passed, there have been changes, many things had happen, met lot of friends and so many blessings as well as the bumps and humps along the way which just made the journey more meaningful. From basically not knowing anything bout organizing an event, trial and error thing, learned how to and still continues learning.
I’m making this blog not to brag or anything but to salute my co-team and family, yes they’re part of my family. Basically, we bonded because we all love as in LOVE to eat… thus we called ourselves tropang foodtrip or TF,hahaha :p even though at times we played badminton (our fave court infront of ebe-es se-be-en) mind you sometimes before sweating it out we already planned where to eat,hahaha Then out of nowhere the idea of a concert for JAPS popped up and basically we’re pushed into that and just go with the flow, meetings and planning… meeting for us means “kapepuyatan and basagan” to make the story short… concert went smoothly and successfully. Thanks much to everyone who came and watched.

After the concert, we asked ourselves so what now? We believe there are still so many things to be done to reach our goals and wishes for JAPS with one — as in ONE OBJECTIVE = = THAT ALL THOSE PEEPS CONCERN WILL TAKE NOTICE OF THIS VERY TALENTED YOUNG LADY, THAT THEY WILL BELIEVE AND TRUST IN HER ENOUGH TO INVEST. So we listed it down to our “Notebook”… its like a 1-year goal plan… There’s Ustream, sponsors or ex-deal for all the things that she needed as an artist, tv soaps, albums, concerts, TVCs, movies and so on… We knew that we cant do all of those coz we’re just ordinary peeps so we just focus on the things that we believe are doable and possible in our own capabilities. We knew its not easy but we believed that twas doable. We all believe in this quote “if there’s a will, there’s a way” :)
Ustream coz we thought that’s one way of reaching out to all her supporters as many as possible, thus JAPSMusicBox was born. Remembering the first Ustream made me laugh really hard, if you only knew what happened behind it =)) :p… it was really a trial and error thing and we do learned from it, and I just hope that you can see the difference and improvement with the succeeding ustreams though there are still glitches which are really out of our control. From that ustream comes the videos which really made a great impact career wise.

Pretty soon, our “notebook” will be one year old [parang baby lang :D] Im so proud to say that almost all that we have listed have turn into reality. We are so grateful to everyone but most especially to God and Sta. Clara. Of course, there are some that didn’t push through, “everything happens for a reason”.
This coming MAY will not be an easy one for us especially on the financial side… album, movie, TM collab, b-day concert… but I know that we’ll fully support her no matter what. We really want all of them to be successful coz we believe that will seal her road to success in the business that she chose, but I still want her to continue her studies which we all agreed and encouraged her if she can juggle it next sem. Then, maybe its also our time to lie low though we are still there for her… you already know I mean by that girls :D This coming May will be our full circle as teamJAPS. Cheers for our friendship, tears, laughter, and love, as well as to all the friends we gained along the way. Kudos to Julie Anne P. San Jose for never giving up her dreams, continuously working very hard to hone and innovate her talents!! SALUTE shobe and girls!! Love y’all <3

God bless everyone!! <3 Spread the Love and Peace!!
TRIVIA: Its really funny coz at first we didn’t know that we’re teamJAPS or TJs. I’ve mentioned awhile ago we called ourselves tropang foodtrip (TF) not until when one of our meetings JAPS was there and I think one of us mentioned it to her that she has a new supporter/s, you know teamJAPS, and asked her if she knows them coz she tweeted bout it. Her replied was: “huh? Kayo ung teamJAPS, yan ang tawag ko sa inyo my teamJAPS” you can only imagine how we burst into laughter =)
ctto for all the pics, thanks! :) <3
