Wasak Waltz

This song is on my playlist (iPod, laptop and phone). I really love the song not just that its because it is sung by Ely and Francis M. It really reminds me of the old eheads song about friendship, moments, childhood memories and drinking sprees (Pare Ko, Minsan and Sembreak). I think the "wasak" term really means "wagas", but as wagas sounds too cheesy and pang-oldie song na, wasak may be a better fit.

Wasak Waltz

Eto na naman
Panahon ng tag-ulan
Di maiiwasan sa buhay nino man
Tulad mo rin ako
Isang pulo sa dagat
Na walang hanggan
Naghahanap ng masisilungan

Sa dinami-dami ng lugar
Ay dito pa nagkita
Gaano nga ba katagal
Ako’y tumatanda na

Pagkakataong tulad nito
Di dapat pinapalampas
Sabay nating harapin
Ang pag-asa ng bukas

Itaas ang kamay
At iwagayway
Masarap mabuhay
Itaob na ang tagay

Saan ka man pumunta
Meron man o wala
Diyan nagsisimula
Ang wasak na pagsasamahan

Pagkakataong tulad nito
Di dapat pinapalampas
Sa sakit na dinadala
Isa lang ang ating lunas

Wrathgate

I was not expecting that WoTLK have some cinematics that will be triggered after completing quests. I knew about something about this Wrathgate when I was looking for something related to Varimathras. I am posting the video site courtesy of Youtube and Liljon94:



Some highlights of the video that I like:
  • Alliance preparing to do battle. I learned afterward that the Human Leader was Bolvar Fordragon 
  • Dranosh Saurfang and the Horde join in battle
  • Dialog:

    • Highlord Fordragon: I was wondering if you'd show up! 
    • Dranosh Saurfang: I couldn't let the Alliance have ALL the fun today!

  • Highlord Fordragon doing some soft talk to Arthas 
  • Arthas comes out. He’s definitely grown taller and bigger now. With Frostmourne of course. 
  • Dranosh Saurfang hates trashtalk, goes to battle and die in one blow. Frostmourne steals his soul 
  • Forsaken (traitors) do kill share (KS) with their new plague. Putress on the lead. 
  • Alliance, Horde, Scourge and even Arthas affected. 
  • Red flight to the rescue. Bathes the scenery with fire. 
  • Its great to see Alexstrasza and Korialstrasz in action (and after the video too
Its fun to do a replay :-)

Honestly I was sad to bring younger Saurfang’s armor back to his dad High Overlord Saurfang in Borean Tundra. But I was surprised that older Saurfang seems to have no emotions (so far), and Orcs valuing to honor above is really admirable (reminded me of Broxigar).


Will post some more adventure soon.
