MOVIE MARATHON: Theme of my days off

I am 25 years old and I only get to have a break 2 days in a week. My work load makes me feel like I am already 50 and I should be taking the best out of any break that I get. I should be lounging in the nearest beach or maybe club hopping by night. I mean, come on! I need to get a life!

(Sigh)

Nonetheless, though I get to lead a less adventurous life, I try make it less boring. Last week, I watched PERCY and the LIGHTNING THIEF in SM Cinema. Aside from the improved print outs of the tickets, the movie was not really... hmmm.. memorable. It was more of a modernized version of the HERCULES adventures that I used to watch when I was kid. I actually enjoyed the trailers more.

I am currently looking forward to watching CLASH of the TITANS and COP OUT. The trailers of these particular movies showed off amazing utilization of screen effects that today's technology can offer.



While waiting for them, a while ago, I went off and watched other movies that came out late of last year. The PRINCESS and the FROG was a Disney cartoon film that featured a Black American Princess. It was a mix of Cinderella meets the Frog prince with a twist of Louisiana voodoo culture. It was a feel good movie and it made the idealistic girl in me believe in happy endings all over again.





Next movie was ALVIN and the CHIPMUNKS 2: The Squeakquel. I honestly liked PART 1 better. I could very much summarize the surprising parts into 2 things: the girl chipmunks that were also singers (but not really much because they litterally looked like girl versions of The Chipmunks) and the guest appearance of Charice Pempengco. It's basically a feel good movie for kids.





The LOVELY BONES had the deepest meaning amongst the movies that I've watched this past two weeks. It was a story about a 14 year old girl who could not move on in the after life because she wanted her murder to be brought to justice first. To lose a loved one over a senseless crime is probably one of the hardest thing that one has to go through. This movie showed how the girl's family struggled to heal and to understand that moving on does not mean forgetting. Watching it made me appreciate the fact that the members of my family are all whole and hearthy and that I would do anything to keep them safe.





The most intriguing was The FOURTH KIND. It had an atmosphere of truth to it. The director made the movie like an actual re-enactment. Alledged true to life videos of interviews with the abducted people of Nome, Alaska were also running side by side with the movie and if you are the type that really has an open mind... you might end up... believing. Watch it and see for yourself.

HAITI and the memories that it brought back.

I was around 6 years old when the 1990 Baguio Earthquake struck.
I don't have much details in my memory. I just remember being cold and afraid.
I remember my mom hugging me and my sister close to her side while she was carrying my brother (he was still a baby then). I remember that I was not wearing any slippers and that my feet were so cold. I remember the rain, but my young mind was wondering why the droplets seemed liked small stones landing on my feet.

I remember sleeping under a big tent together with the other children and their Mamas and their Papas. It was like a slumber party only it was not much fun because everyone seemed so afraid. When I got older, I realized that my family was one of the lucky ones because we did not end up homeless. Luckier still because we all survived.

All these memories came flashing back when the Haiti Tragedy struck.

I feel for the children.
I know how it's like to wonder if everything will be ok again.

This post is to officially help make everyone aware that there are a lot of Haiti locals right now that are in need of our help. They need food, medicine, water and clothing.
If there's anyway that we could help, let's reach out.

1st Entry for 2010

Amazing.
I realized that I had one entry for the year 2009 and that was it.
Parang feeling ko tuloy... napaka-uneventful ng buhay ko ng taong 2009.

That is not true though. I finally got approved for the OMTT role last July 2009. It was also my 1st time to ride on board a plane and be on a place outside of Luzon - Bohol. Oh, and of course, I also won another award, Top Coach for 1st Quarter of 2009.

All in all, I still can't help but feel that my journey last year was one big struggle. It was like... being there... but watching myself from afar at the same time.

Hanep na description ba?

Hehehe. But this year, i want to make it different. I want to make sure that something explosive will happen that will mark a milestone in my life.

Amen.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCK!!!

Hindi ako makapaniwala. Heto na ang pagkakataon na pinaka-hihintay ko. Bali-balita ang ahente na cute daw at ubod ng gentleman na papasok sa Kapuso Network. 

Eh di hayun na nga...siyempre, mega-abang kami. Hindi rin namin napigilang mag-occular inspection. Matangkad siya. May dimples. Cute ang smile. Kalbo. Cute ang mata. Mukhang mabait...mukhang malinis.

Mas lalu pa akung natuwa nang malaman kong magiging ahente ko pala siya. /wahaha

Kung sinusuwerte ka nga naman. /wahaha

Kagabi ay unang bese kong narinig ang ikanyang boses. /blush

Mababa ang boses niya, malambing sa tenga... subalit:

Pogi8: Cots, the customer was asking ip, ip, it's fossible to relod her account that she doesn't receive yet?

AHAHAHAHAH!!! Maligayang bagong taon sa inyong lahat!!! Sana'y ang lahat ay nagkaroon ng kahit isang masayang ala-ala sa 2008 para naman kahit papano'y hindi lang kahirapan at taas ng pamasahe't bilihin ang maalala sa taong ito.

Sana'y sa 2009:

umunlad ang mga naghihirap

magkaroon ng sapat na pagkain para sa lahat

magpahinga muna ang mga walang pagod sa pakikipag-giyera

mas tumatag pa ang mother nature laban sa mga mapag-samantala

madiskubre ang mga gamot para sa mga uber grabeng sakit

makarma ang mga corrupt 

ma-inlove ang mga tigang (para naman magkaroon na ng love life at sex life na rin)

manalo pa si Manny ng maraming laban...wakekekek

MALIGAYANG BAGONG TAON SA LAHAT!!!!
