Knowing

I'm not glad that I know. This movie was great at first and it was really intriguing. The whole time, I was wondering where the movie was heading. The first few parts were a little bit scary for me. I thought it was a horror movie. I was like, "Oh my God. Please let me sleep tonight!"

When the plane crash scene came, I thought, "Do you know that when a plane crashes, almost everyone survives? Yes, they run screaming around as they burn."

There are also creepy people in black who follow the family everywhere and one of them was pretty hot. Then, out of the blue, a gem-like spaceship came out of the fog and by this time I was, "What the hell? A spaceship? Are you kidding me?" Of course, everyone dies except kids who came with the angel-like aliens who has powers to scream blinding light.

The two kids are the future adam and eve. At the end of the movie, they run happily to the tree of life. Shag under it until they produce more humans.

Lame ending. I'm disappointed. I think I like Race to witch mountain better (or am I being bias because I have a HUGE crush on Alexander Ludwig?)

Overall, I think I'm better off not "Knowing". Pun intended. :D

You definitely need these things for 2009.

I absolutely love these things especially the one-shoulder grecian dress which you can find at asos.com for 230 GDP (roughly 16k in pesos). Yes, it's really expensive but it's beautiful. J'adore. Overall, this look would cost you about 41k (PHP). I must get a job fast or marry someone rich. (Just kidding!) Beauty and fashion costs so much but I still love it.

C'est la vie. That's life!

Coby Bryant - My Boyfriend

Yeah, he's my boyfriend.
We knew we were the one for each other.
It was love at first bite. :)



Frustrations

"I live in the London, UK.
A great big city, crazy during rush hour,
with different people speaking that lovely british accent."

10 years from now, I wish that will be coming out of my mouth. Right now though, I live in the philippines. I deeply love my country (despite the corrupt government and pollution) but living here is not enough for me. I know that there is great culture in the Philippines even though I haven't explored every little crook and nanny. However, I believe that it's time for me to explore the world and see other cultures. London is one of the most diverse cities in the world (not to mention it's near the countries I want to visit in Europe). It's my dream to visit it and maybe someday, I will live there; because, I don't have to formulate an excuse why I'm spurting british expressions (e.g. Bugger, Blimey, Bloody Hell, Wanker). *Laughs*

Fuck you, Penguin

Look at my blog list and see the fuck you, penguin blog.
I was laughing my ass off when I saw it.
Come on. Click on the link and read on.
You can vent up a lot of angst by commenting.

Some of the comments:
1. fuck you, porcupine.
2. What are you thinking Dolphin? It's like your copying Flamingos. You're so unoriginal!
3. You see children, when a red and white dolphin love each other, they make a pink dolphin.
4. You better watch your ass, Biturong. Just because you're adorable doesn't mean you have diplomatic immunity.

It feels kind-a weird reading all the hateful comments towards animals but I just can't help myself. It amuses me. *Laughing my ass off now.*

Free hugs

I saw free huggers when I was in Japan. It made my day. Then I saw this video, I feel really great now. :) When he hugged that woman at 0:50 in the video, the world just became a little brighter for me. So more hugs please!


When you feel like crap and the sun just won't shine. All you need is a free hug and you feel great again. Kudos to all the free huggers! My hugs go out to you in one big embrace. :D We should have a day dedicated to free hugs. PETITION. Comment if you want a free hug day. :D

Kabbalah - a person, a town or a bowl of soup?

Okay. What's up with the Kabbalah bling these days? You know. The red string people keep on wearing. I remember some funny dialogue from Will and Grace (which is probably one of the best series I have been watching obsessively).

GRACE: Your words wash over me. You see, Kabbalah has taught me there is no room for negativity in life. And I believe him.
WILL: Kabbalah is not a person.
GRACE: Then how did he write a book?
KAREN: Didn't anyone ever tell you two that stealing is a sin? Yeah, a little something I learned in a town called Kabbalah.
[KAREN HOLDS UP HER LEFT HAND. THERE IS A RED RIBBON TIED AROUND HER WRIST.]
WILL: It's not a town!
KAREN: Then how did it write a book?
[KAREN AND GRACE TAP THEIR KABBALAH WRISTS TOGETHER.]
WILL: I can't imagine anyone having less understanding of this religion.

Other dialogue. Blah-blah-blah, then a perfect ending.


KAREN: Wow, she's really upset.
JACK: You know what she needs? A nice warm bowl of Kabbalah.
WILL: It's not a... [SIGHS] I'll boil the water.


I just love them. :D

214

Here in Starbucks (Rockwell), just listening to 214. It a really great song by Rivermaya, the lead singer then was Bamboo.

"The world could die
And everything may lie
Still you shouldn't cry
'Cause time may pass
But longer than it'll last
I'll be by your side"

I really love the song. It's romantic. It's sweet. However, everytime the song ends I feel so shitty. I think it's because it's not meant to be sweet or romantic. I can feel the melody of the song and it's a sad melody. Even though the lyrics say that there will always be someone with you, I think it's saying the opposite, "a goodbye". I know I sound weird right now and I probably don't make sense but try listening to the song and tell me what you think about it. I want to hear your own interpretation.

Hear the song. :)

If only for a while..

When love fades, and dreams are all you have,
Hold tight. Don't let go.
When dreams fade, and realization hits,
Kiss love and dream goodbye.
Reality hurts. Fantasy hurts even more.

I'm obsessed.

Can the word obsessed really have that much 's'?
Just a thought. :)

Anyway, yes. You've read right. I'm obsessed about a dream I keep on having. This dream has been plaguing me since last week. I don't know what my subconscious is telling me so I hope you can tell me.

It always starts with me in a bench. I don't know where I am but in my view I can clearly see kids playing cricket. I would assume I'm in a park. There are vendors surrounding me. They sell cotton candy, popcorn, balloons, etc. I must be near an amusement park 'cause there was a big ferris wheel afar.

A friend said I must be somewhere in Europe in my dream. I've never been in any country in Europe so I don't exactly know what it looks like. Maybe, deep inside, I wanted to go there? Hmm.. Anyway, back to my story. So I was writing furiously in a notebook when suddenly a kid tripped and bruised his leg. I was immediately there and to my surprise, I have a first aid kit. How convenient is that? :)

I was helping him to a bench when a guy came to me. Can't remember what he looked like but his voice was sweet, caring, not deep but it did have an english accent. He helped me patch the wound and well, a girl approached him. I didn't see him smile at me but in the dream I know he did after he kissed the girl that is. I can't remember his face. I want and try to but I can't. This mystery guy is driving me nuts. Maybe, it's just a dream. Maybe, it's just in my subconscious. Deep inside, I wish it isn't.

Stuck

You've probably read my post "Screenplay".

I know. I know.

I should be writing. The problem is.. I actually don't remember how my dream ended. Maybe, I woke up before the story ended. Now, that leaves me to think of how the story will flow. I haven't even left page 1 of the script. Writing a script is really hard.

Screenplay

I woke up at around 11:30 this morning and I can't seem to get a dream out of my head. So, instead of distracting myself, I thought I should just write a screenplay about it. I've always wanted to write a screenplay and wish that someone would buy and make a film out of it. However, I was always to lazy to start writing so I couldn't get anything done. Maybe this dream is a sign that I should start asserting myself.

Thank you dream. :)

By the way, I was thinking of "Love Balloon" for the title. Tell me what you think.

Cinema

Here in the cinema, going to watch, "Race to witch mountain". Miley Cyrus' movie trailer playing. Oh.. Damn. It's so funny! And she's seriously thinking of winning an oscar. For what? Best wannabe actress? She should just stick to music. On second thought, I think she should just stay at home. :)

You

He will never be yours and you will never be his.
He is in love, deeply and passionately in love.
But not with you. Never with you.

Immersion

Arrived in school. 5:00am.
Left school. 6:00am.
STOPOVER! :D


Bored. Bus ride: 3 hours.

Finally, we arrived at calatagan, batangas.


We rode a jeepney. After, we had to walk for a couple of meters. The path was not paved and there were twigs and rocks everywhere. The grass was not cut. I'm pretty sure that there are snakes lurking around. It was a great experience to be up close to a cow and a goat. *Laughs*

Life is hard in the province. There are no cars. There's no refrigerator. You have to pump a well for water and the pump is rusty. We had to cook so we started fire with dried wood that we found around the house. No matter how hard their life is, people are still accomodating. They tried their best to make us feel comfortable. After all, we're city girls and we don't actually experience these things everyday. In the city, things are handed on a silver platter. Everything is high-tech. In the province, they don't even have landline phones or cellphones. Just imagine how they contact their families in manila, by letters sent by post (which would probably arrive in a week).
We played with the kids there. My family for the day was ate Zoila and Lorenz. Lorenz had a broken wrist from falling off a tree. I expected to see him in a cast. To my surprise, his wrist was bandaged with used cloth and there were leaves stuck in it.

I asked him, "Para saan yung dahon? (the leaves, what are they for?)"

He replied, "Gamot po. (It's medicine.)"

I can just imagine how a broken wrist must have hurt (I've dislocated my ankle before). With no medicine and proper cast, he can't heal properly and it would be hard to go to school and write with a broken wrist.

I had always thought that my life was hard. I had to live up to the expectations of my family. I had to do great in school to make them proud. But whatever I ask for will be given to me. I travel. I have a DSLR. I have a computer. I have a tv, a maid, designer clothes, shoes, bags. When I ask for money, my parents will give it to me. I have everything I want and need.

Seeing the provincial life. Seeing those people, in that community. I am quite sure that they don't have much. They just have a small room enought to fit two people but a family of ten is sleeping there. They don't have a couch. All furnitures are made by scrap wood from trees. THEIR LIFE IS HARD and my life? My life is easy.

Is she serious?


Just out of curiousity, I checked my multiply account.
I haven't signed in, in like forever.
Anyway, imagine my reaction when I saw this.

Wow, so now she's adding me as her friend. Not that I hate or dislike her. I thought she hated me. *Laughs* Hmm, I guess things change you know. I'll add her anyway seeing as she wants to make ammends. :P

La Mesa Eco Park

SUPER LATE BLOG POST! :D
Last week, went to la mesa park.

The International with Kimmie. :)


Check out Kimmie's blog: http://superspectrum.blogspot.com/

So Kim and I went to see the international, the one with Clive Owen. Yeah. At first, it was really interesting. I was curious about EVERYTHING. It was kind-a like a suspense/action/comedy in some moments/confusing movie. I'm not sure what to feel about the movie. It just left me baffled and confused. : I just want to see it again and well.. try to figure it out. *Laugh*


After, met up with her cousin and her cousin's ateneo friends. I really had fun today. :D Wah! So excited for monday, can't wait to do some outreach activities! Ta-ta for now! :D

Crash!

So, my teacher who was supposed to get married, broke up with her fiancée. Do I hear the sound of a heart breaking? Yeah, bummer, right? The guy was a down right git anyway so I guess she's better off without him. Freaking mama's boy. Tsk. Anyway, ever since they broke up she started acting weird. I saw her once in the chapel.. (Not that it's bad to pray, it's just weird.) And we're doing photoshop stuff when she asked me to put make-up on a hideous looking human, I can't even see the eyes. Are we suppose to give the picture eyes??

*Imagining myself patting her on the back*

Heartbreak. What it can do to you and to your job. Sad, really.

Oh-nose!


Ed Westwick. I love you - but that is just plain gross!

Pagtatapos

Matatapos na ang lahat, ‘yan ang totoo.
Ang oras ay unti-unting lumilipas.
Isang kabanata ang nagtatapos,
At naguumpisa ang panibago.

Tayo’y nag-away.
Tayo’y umiyak.
Tayo’y nagkasiyahan.
Tayo’y nagmahalan.

Sa panahong mabilis na nawala,
Habang nakatayo kapiling ang lahat,
Napagtanto na ito ang huling pagkakataon.
Maraming salamat, mga kaibigan ko.

Ngayo’y, magpapaalam na,
Handang tumayo ng mag-isa.
Inaalala ang lumipas na kahapon,
Paalam na, mahal kong kaibigan.

Sabay-sabay tayo,
Ipagaspas ang mga pakpak,
At lumipad sa himpapawid.
Saludo ako sayo, kaibigan.
