I most remember Chelli-chan as the nervous kid who had the misfortune of being the receiving end of my katarayan during a formal interview.

FLORI: Are you nervous?

CHELLI: Yes, Ma’am.

FLORI: Well you should be!

So Cherie Gil-Sharon Cuneta, isn’t it? Anyway, who would have known years later that that same trembling kid would become Chelli Mariano, J-event host extraordinaire!

Yes! I’m so busy I’m not even posting this at home. But a promise is a promise and I’m not gonna shirk my duties. Here it is, folks – the full band account of Juujiro J-Culture’s J Crunch Ripiito!

WARNING: Peekchur heavy!!! All pictures courtesy of NinJulius.

Finally! Busy, busy, buseh! The author would like to apologize to the people who have been expecting something about J Crunch Ripiito. Well, you’re in luck because this is just the first of many posts about the event. Neat, huh? Please visit often for updates.

I’ve been in and out of the J community for the past 7 years but to tell you the truth, this is actually the first time I’ve ever been to a J-Music event. Doing media coverage on behalf of Sugoi Stuff definitely cured me of my homebody tendencies. In fact, I lost my Pinoy J-Music scene virginity at the J Crunch Ripiito last Saturday.

Blame it on sleep deprivation (poor insomniac is what I am), a mountain load of clothes to wash, and the fact that I pity my photographer for bullying him to accept a little sideline despite his busy schedule. Since I forced it on him, I have to wait a little before I can get my hands on the pictures.

Where was I? Oh yeah, making excuses.

Anyway, articles (and peekchurs) on yesterday’s J Crunch Ripiito will be posted soon. Same with my post on my little stint at the iblog3 summit.

Call it delayed gratification.

See you guys soon! Now must get some sleep…. if I can.
