Watching Boys Like Girls left me with chills and positively overwhelming emotions. It felt like reliving
my early high school years where their songs would constantly get played on the jeepneys and
tricycle radios on my way to school. “Thunder” was also one of the most popular songs that my
classmates would play on their guitars. No one cared if their guitar was out of tune or if the chords
were wrong, and it really didn’t matter if we were singing the right lyrics -- the whole class would just
belt out this song!
Looking back and recalling those
nostalgic moments, never could I have
dreamed that I would be blessed enough
to be given the chance to photograph
Boys Like Girls for a global magazine.
It’s mind blowing to think about! Boys
Like Girls’ songs are etched in the
recesses of my mind when I revisit my
high school experience – a memory
which I will covet and treasure forever!
