I'm Back, balakubak

before everyone dances their first day high's

Happy Independence Day everyone.

should happy independence day be a greeting to everyone? honestly, i dont' think so. but for the entire day, it's in their statuses, they're making blog entries about it, and someone even actually texted me about it.

So am i happy?

sa totoo lang hindi. Bakit ka naman magiging masaya eh ka-epalan lang tong Independence day na to. Hindi tayo Independent. Yung presidente natin nakikipaglampungan parin sa presidente at leaders ng ibang bansa. Lahat parin tayo nagiingles para maging cool. at hanggang ngayon bumibili parin ako ng Hershey's para sumaya minsan.

pero wala lang.

Yesterday, i watched Cars. inisip ko lang talaga simpleng tambay lang sa church with family (tinatambayan na pala church ngayon?!) tas dinner. tas yun pala my mom wanted me to go with my brothers and watch the movie. Okay, sabi kasi ng reviews maganda naman daw yung movie, and i pretty much wanted to watch it anyway. so yun. nanuod ako kasama mga kapatid ko.

di sumama si mama. ewan kung bakit. Bought 3 tickets sa festival after we went to church sa town. Ang daming tao sa Town eh. from here to there nanaman yung pila. kaya no choice. Festival lang talaga. Pero ayos lang nagkaron kami ng option na manuod ng 6:40. Ayaw sumama ni mama sa movie. kaya ako lang versus my two little brothers. at least nanuod ako for the first time with them. Bonding with kuya daw. ulol. We did get a lot of food, knowing my brothers you always need to fix their mouth with something. So before going in sa movies binilan na niya kami ng maraming junkfood. Naks, mother's love talaga. It's weird for Festival Cinemas to do the new RESERVED seats thing. it didn't help either. parang timang lang. ang panget pa nung seats na nakuha ko kasi sobrang maling-mali yung seat plan na binigay samin. baliktad yung place ng Screen kaya instead na nasa bandang likod kami. nandun kami sa medyo harap. Tas wala pa sa gitna. ARGH.

As expected... Cars was amazing. the whole disney-pixar partnership is really a gem for the whole movie business, they make amazing movies together. It's like making a movie that you know everyone in your family could react to. The kids can have fun, and so can the adults. For Cars they really pushed the movie visually. It looked so real, except for the fact na obviously animated yung movie. Pero still, it's so amazing, the glare nung sa screen, yung shining effect, the dust on the exterior of the cars. Amazing.

Solid pa yung movie, has nice values for my brothers. And the character transformation, galeng. Voice talent was good, i mean: Paul Newman, Owen Wilson and Larry, The Cable Guy! haha! ayos! I was actually a bit sad during the end, talagang totally into it ako no. hahaha

What's sadder is that the cinemas we have here in the Philippines kahit anong sabi nila na Digital o kaya Dolby Digital yung sounds. eh bano parin. I had to stand up tas go out para lang sabihin sa mga ushers na "Miss, sabog yung sounds niyo" tanginang dolby digital yan. Sabog talaga sa Festival. I am definately NOT watching Superman there. kahit na from here to there ang pila sa Superman, i would manage to get in line first and get the seats that i wanted.

How come sobrang olats din ng mga projectionist dito sa pinas? tangina obvious na obvious kapag magpapalit na ng reel (obvious naman talaga pero 5 second delays between reels? oh kamawn!) Dapat parang Tyler Durden shit sila dito. hahaha! O kaya parang yung sa Cinema Paradiso. ayos yun!

It's nice to see how Disney-Pixar tandem evolves along the years. Toy Story to The Incredibles to Finding Nemo. They know their audience, they know their craft, and they know how to get the job done in the most fantastic way. So when the whole Disney-Pixar falldown happened i was in woe. Aminin na natin, Chicken Little was terrible. and probably kung ano pa yung gagawin ng Disney alone in the future. It would fail. But whatever happened to the good-ole' 2d animation. Sayang, they don't get much attention nowadays. Pero astig talaga yung classics ah... It could be weird seeing Mickey Mouse in 3d. Sa Kingdom Hearts okay lang. pero kung sa full-length movie siguro olats na.

...

Went to Recto kanina. Mom had to buy the things she needed for her Nursing course. She's going waaayyy over-the-top. everything she buys cost a fortune and she still expects me to use them in the future. Soreeeh mama. Oh, she understands naman eh. haha!

She bought this entire line of review books para sa tests nila this coming weeks. ako naman i wanted to buy cd's lang. Ever since Metropolis closed down on the whole
No-burned-american-bands-cd's-available hoopla hindi na ako bumalik don tas parang wala na akong makuhang matinong cd ng mga foreign bands (of course, you need to buy ORIG PINOY CD's).

Anyway. pumunta kaming PRC, kala ko dun sa Recto mismo. tas sobrang epal ko sabi ko ke mama kelangan kong pumunta sa Recto para bilin yung Punk Goes 90's na CD. eh ang dami nang pulis na nakaharang sa may harap ng FEU. natakot din ako, pero cool ah! ngayon lang ako nakakita ng ganito karaming pulis tas meron pang pambomba sa mga rallyista!

i managed to get sa Recto and actually buy CDs that i wanted. wala silang the whole THE OC mixes. kaya kinuha ko nalang yung mga inisip kong hindi ma-rerelease dito ever. Yung bago ng Thursday, first and 2nd album ng Emery, Punk goes 90's, the 1998-album Something about airplanes by Death Cab and Panic! at the Disco.

okay, so i know Panic! at the Disco would be relesed here this month pero bibili nalang ako once it's released na. You gotta love the whole Punk goes series. There's Punk goes Acoustic, then Punk goes 80's (amazing!) and Punk goes Metal (didn't buy), Punk goes Pop (haha! solid!) and then now Punk Goes 90's.

before i had this conversation with Francis kung anong mga kanta yung makakasama. Barbie Girl? Anything by Backstreet Boys or NSYNC. Then i realized they did that with Punk Goes Pop already. It was a huge overwhelming moment when i saw the tracklist of the CD and then i said, oh shit. i gotta have this.

They covered songs from Blur, Bjork, REM, Depeche Mode, Red hot Chilli Peppers and of Course Nirvana! I really really loved Bedlight for Blue Eyes' cover of Third Eye Blind's Jumper. Somehow it's so emo pero it really hit the note. Then there's Emery's rendition of the Toad, The Wet Sprocket original; All I Want. i mean, i didn't know what song it even is, pero once i've heard it i was like, oh! I used to sing this shit! hahaha!

other good downloads would be Scary Kids, Scaring Kids cover of REM's Losing My Religion, Bleeding Through's Stars, Cartel's Wonderwall, Gym Class Heroes' Under The Bridge... shit, parang na-mention ko na yung entire album. Yes, it's good.

...

I met 2 new friends c/o Jeri. and now, along with JM we're that pseudo-shit-whatever group based on the Emo rangers. aww! haha. alam ko corny. pero wala lang. walang magawa eh. hey! we're myspace whores usually broods the internet from 12midnight onwards and we like talking about music and stuff. hahaha... Instead of being like, Black or Blue ranger. I'm Chronic Stoner Green Ranger! YESSS! Chronic Stoner Green Ranger is what the name describes. He's like this Chronic Stoner... na Ranger! hahahaha! si JM si Yellow ranger (although Yellow ranger is the fat chick.) and Jeri's Blue, i think? DP is Pink (because Hizagay.) and Mark is Black!

hahaha! I was rummaging through my brother's old toys that they bought back from the states. I never knew who sent this pero they had this coool Halo action Figure! with an arm missing! ay, pota. if you've seen my brother's toys... they're like... disaster talaga. they have disembowled stuffed toys, about 10 spiderman figures missing either a leg, head or his spider sense. basta. tarantado mga kapatid ko eh. sabugan. Anyway, my Gay halo action figure sorta looks like Chronic Stoner Green Ranger! hahaha!

...

Speaking of MYSPACE. tangina kakaadik mag-myspace. ang daming magaganda. ang daming banda. ang daming emo kids na walang magawa kundi punuin yung WHO I'D LIKE TO MEET nila o kaya yung mga HEROES nila ng CHRIS CARRABBA!

Good Clean Fun, a vegan hardcore band from Washington made this song called THE MYSPACE SONG and it's a good song actually. nakakatuwa yung song. may sense of whatever. pero ayos talaga. downloaded it kanina tas sobrang LSS mode ako ngayon. DOWNLOAD IT!

and other songs that i recently downloaded included The Youth Group's Forever Young cover. and Wilson Philips' Hold On. Naalala ko kasi kung gano kalaf3p yung ginawa ni Harold and Kumar dun sa movie. yung kumakanta sila ng Hold On. tas nakaka-inspire pala yung song. Na parang ewan. hahaha! Tas yung Forever young. tangina parang themesong of the moment ko na. Of course, theme song ni Ryan at Marissa yun! awww!

...

Speaking of THE OC. i have 9 episodes left until i finish Season 3. I know the ending na naman eh. it's just sad how i've been watching 3 years worth of tv-time during my second half of summer. I can't really watch TV dahil nga walang cable sa dorm. It's just good that Boxed Sets are available. Awww! Can't really do my THE OC blog until i finish the entire 3rd season. by then i'd be typing like hell just getting out of the oc in my system.

...

Sheesh. walang magawa. Tomorrow baka magblog ako about Itchyworms at BURN magazine! aww! alavet! hahaha! Maligayang FIRST DAY HIGH sa mga papasok na ng College. Go go go LUCKY! hahaha!

The second half of summer.

2006-06-11T04:25:00.000+08:00

AND NOW BROADCASTING SIMULTANEOUSLY at BLOGSPOT, LIVEJOURNAL, MYSPACE and MULTIPLY...

It's the return of Shinji! awww!

After how many weeks of not blogging. now here i am. your own official bitch. You know it's funny because ang daming nagsasabi kung bakit di na ako nagbablog these couple of days.. awww. i know you missed me and shit. I just wasn't in the mood to write. Things had been different this summer. Well, this second-half of summer (as i'd like to call it.). Busy in terms of so many shit being done. Ang dami talaga.

Sa totoo lang nakalimutan ko na yung mga ginawa ko na wala lang. di ko maalala. pero there are just these things na you simply cannot forget. as in you cannot. as in talaga. memoooorieeess...

Originally, as my comeback in the blogging business I planned a sort-of Newscast transcript and write it and post it here. Parang update lang. pero wala eh. inisip ko... hey madepaka! where's the fun in that?! although masaya nga siya. I wanted to call it The Anti-Hiatus sana.

pero wala eh... anyway... here i gooo!

SUMMER CLASSES OFFICIALLY ENDS.

if you asked me kung kamusta ang summer classes ko. wala. sobrang boring. Boring to the extent na inisip ko ano na kaya mangyayari sakin ngayong second year as a college student. Yung tipong ayoko nang mag-enroll this sem kung wala namang mangyayari sa course ko. During the last days of summer classes i decided to stay at the dorm completely.

went home thursday, may 18. but before i went home i watched the da vinci code muna. Tell you later. there's this article about summer movies na napanuod ko. hahaha. Skippped classes that friday and decided to completely blow it off. I was going to Katipunan that friday anyway. to be with the ABM guys which i missed so much. so there. I decided na wala lang. completely blow off the last lesson about Poetry.

Hindi na talaga ako babalik the next week kasi finals week lang naman. In one point naisip kong ayusin na yung mga bagsak subjects ko para maayos yung next sem ko. Pero wala eh. Monday morning i arrived and took my final exam for Humanities1 class. which i did well, i think. Okay na sana kaso nung umalis sila Cy at Mico. i felt completely alone. na wala lang, ayoko nang kumilos. Monday night and tuesday until afternoon i finished the first season of THE OC. and then packed my bags and went home. SO that was that. Summer Classes are over.

Saying goodbye yet again to Los Banos made me feel that i don't want to come back again for another semester. Truth be told, i just wasn't in the mood for school this whole summer yet i did it because i wanted to get some money and not hang out in home. I mean, just one subject! I could've just dropped it all.

Pero that was that na talaga eh. I enjoyed hanging out with Cy and Mico and Jared in the dorm room. Pero i was all cooped up. I was bored. I had nothing to do but watch Arrested Development, The OC, and every DVD i could get on my hands. I didn't write the screenplay that i wanted to write. I didn't write the Short story i was dreaming of. I didn't learn how to play the flute or the guitar that i craved for. Wala. Wala lang talaga.

I didn't even write a decent song.

THE ABM at DREW's

It all started with a Chatroom...

It was a big relief and a sort of getaway from summer classes spending time with the people i met 2 years ago. ALPHABETAMAMA. hindi kami madami na pumunta, pero having them and drinking with them was really really really fun!

It's been a while since i went back to Katipunan. hindi naman talaga ako marunong pumunta don. Usually may kotse o ewan. pero deins talaga ako nagcommute. So, this was planned almost a week before it happened. I'm gonna meet Lucky at Quezon Ave. and then go to Katipunan and then crash at his place.

And for my excuse at home: Let's just say that i was in a party in Paranaque and then watched the Barbie Almalbis concert in Araneta. And my mom bought it. I'm such a good... excuse-maker.

Lucky wasn't available earlier than we talked about kasi pumunta siya dun sa swimming kasama yung mga kaklase niya sa Ateneo. That's why i made a pit stop at Gateway first. I had nothing to do honestly. I've seen the Da Vinci. Wasn't in the mood to see Over the hedge... and oh my gallywallybop! ang daming tao sobra. The line for the Da Vinci was like... from here... TO THERE. OVER THE HEDGE! hahaha!

Buti nalang may fully booked pala dun! haha! Pero wala naman akong binili. But i did buy Taking Back Sunday's Louder Now! sa ODC. ni-release dito. ayos! Tas umalis na ako. Rode the MRT again to Quezon Ave. tas yun...

Sinundo ako ni Lucky, then went to their House. tas ate dinner. Tas punta ng Katipunan at around 6:30. Dumating kami sa Drew's na wala nang upuan. So trouble. haha! pero ayos lang nagkaron naman. I met Petra. and then another bunch of people na kinakausap si Lucky. tas yun. Dumating na sila Aebbey and Samsam. Dumating si Karen and Meg. Dumating si Gio.

Before they arrived nag-order na kami ni Lucky ng Green Lantern at... ewan ko kung ano yung isa GinStraw! haha ayun! tas yun.. nagpakasabog na. Then they arrived. Then i met a couple of people na hindi ko na talaga malala (Sorry!) Ohh yes! Meg was there! and she wasn't alpha! and i met her! haha! Ka-blocmate niya si Lucky sa Ateneo.

then they brought in the WENGWENG.

nung dumating na yung wengweng. wala na... na-wengweng na yung utak ni lucky. Dumating si Fong medyo late na. Naka-10 suka na si Lucky. he was making round trips from the parking lot, to the CR, back to our table. tas yun na! hahaha! tas nagkwekwentuhan kami nila Samsam. Then we noticed na sabog narin si Aebbey!

ohh yes... Mars arrived din nung nagsusuka si Lucky! haha and then yun. Si Karen sobrang laseng na din. They had weird pictures of her nga eh! pero taena ang saya talaga! especially when Aebbey puked at the space near our table. haha. buti pala si lucky naka-baba na!

Ohhh. Samsam gave me this black and purple journal from the States! AWWW! THANKS to you My little sister! oh yes, aebbey kept teasing us. pero sa tingin ko sa wengweng lang yun. Good thing is that I maintained my cool. hindi ako totally sabog. I managed to carry out a decent converstaion with the people in there... ayun!

hahaha! Si Fong at Lucky ngayon ko lang nakita. Pero ayos talaga! Parang wala lang, parang ang tagal-tagal na naming nagkita! Si Fong ang tanging STAR! na kilala ko na mabait talaga! haha! sobrang saya pa! Mga 12 or 1 umalis na kami sa Drew's. We left Karen nga, kasi she didn't wanna go with Samsam eh she was with a lot of people pa. So yun pumunta kaming starbucks tapos nagkape. tas yun. naguwian na sila. Naiwan kami nila Gio, Fong at Lucky sa starbucks. Fong and Gio kept acting lines from Gio's script of The Wiz for Playshop. haha. dapat daw pala Gansta yung delivering ng lines...

Then Lucky, Gio and I got into a cab. dinaan namin si Gio sa bahay nila. Tas umuwi na kami ni Lucky sa kanila. Tas yun. Around 3 na kami nakatulog kasi nagusap pa kami about comics, and other stuff! hahaha!

Woke up at around 5:30. i promised my mom i'd be back for breakfast eh. umalis ako ng mga 5:45 kina Lucky the arrived at 7am dito sa bahay! WOW! Ang bilis pala. MRT+BUS+JEEP. bilis. Pero tangina i got held up dun sa jeep. ako lang kasi sakay tas naghahanap siya ng iba pang masasakay. Eventually, nahuli siya ng pulis kasi mali yung tinatambayan niya. ayun. mga 10 minutes na lecture mula sa pulis. hahah! Got back on time naman eh! Di ako nasermonan!

Siyempre... master yata to!

MALL OF ASIA!

Somehow, i felt na the first time na pupunta ako sa Mall of Asia would be Eventful. And it was! haha! tangina! Third biggest mall in the world daw... Houses an Olympic-sized Skating rink, almost a thousand shops, the first IMAX theatre in the Philippines, and have i mentioned that it could sink into the ocean or be completely devoured by the reclaimed land that it's standing on in a couple of years?

OH yes, i have to be in this mall!

May 25th. I went there. and wala lang. I was in awe at how big it was. Sasakit talaga paa ko neto. Pero the first thing na gusto ko talagang gawin dito eh.... I HAVE TO SEE IMAX. IMAX, imax, imax. I wanted to see the NASCAR 3d shit. pero 3pm pa yun. Kaya naglakadlakad muna ako sa mall.

WOW. They have Powerbooks, Fully Booked, A Different Bookstore, National Bookstore and Booksale all in one roof! HOLY KAMOWTE! This is my mall. hahaha!

It was well, huge. Pero ang daming tao. Pano mo namang nasabi na walang pera at naghihirap ang Pilipinas kung nasa atin ang Third biggest mall in the world (Daw.) at parang sa bawat lingon mo eh mall o kaya shopping center, o kaya jollibee?

Sabi ni Mama, yung mga mall daw sa states napaka-walang kwenta. Parang wala lang. Corny. Tas dito daw EXTRAVAGANT! And really, it is extravagant. ngayon lang yata sumakit paa ko as isang mall.

Checked out the cinemas. Premium daw. oh well. I watched IMAX! We ate muna. hindi namin alam kung san kakain, kasi:

A. Hindi namin mahanap yung Jollibee
B. Hindi namin mahanap yung ITALIANNI's (joke lang to.)
C. Wala kaming mahanap. Virgin pa kami sa mall na to!

kaya dun nalang kami sa Food court sa tabi ng Olympic-sized Skating Rink. Gusto ko sanang mag-ice skating kaso may lintek na event na nangyayari eh. Si mama din gustong pag skating-in yung dalawa kasi wala lang. Pasttime ko dati yung Ice skating nung bata pa ako sa Southmall at Megamall. Ngayon wala na. kaliwa na paa ko pagdating sa skating. Pero i think magaling parin yata ako eh!

uy masarap un sa Tamayo's Ah! Yung steamed squid nila! BONUS! 80 pesos lang! dalawang squid with kangkong and then rice then drinks! SOLB! then mom got Pizza, then chicken. tas yun na! pero squid kinain ko.

Decided to watch IMAX at 3pm. kasama ko pinsan ko. 200 bucks. this should be worth it. Well. honestly it was okay. Worth it. Pero ayos lang. Steady. Kung hindi sana nag-overheat yung projection at na-delay yung screening ng mga 10 minutes, steady talaga eh. pero sobrang cool nung 3D glasses. Mas sulit sana yung 200pesos ko kung may bag lang akong pagtataguan nung glasses. pero wala talaga eh. SAYANG! oh well. it was a different experience. They showed the HAPPY FEET trailer. YES! Yung dancing penguins! in 3d! i was like.. OH SHIT. THIS IS SOOO GOOD.

Nascar3d was well. Okay. Ang saya nung parang tatapon sayo yung lumilipad na gulong kapag nag-crash yung car. Yung trailer din nung Dinosaurs shit. tangina kakagulat. Parang olats nga lang yung nasa harap namin kasi hinihipo-hipo pa yung dinosaurs... tas inisip ko... Kung wala siguro akong glasses para siyang timang na hinihipo yung hangin na ewan...

OHH! Before i got in sa imax nakita ko pala si samsam! tinawagan niya ako sa selepono ko to tell yata na she's in Mall of Asia. tas swak na swak naman nandito din ako! kaya she went to the theatre and talked a bit. tas yun! she left with her dad! hahaha! of all the malls in asia. Dito pa kami sa Mall of Asia nagkita! aww!

After the movie naglakadlakad muna ako... Then umuwi na. Ayos!

FVF JAM and KARELLE'S BIRTHDAY

Fistfights Versus Fences! I think this is our first official practice as Fistfights Vs. Fences. well, because since we changed the name of the band deins pa kami nakakapractice. pero ayos lang!

we played good. Considering na Russel broke 3 rented drumsticks kakahapas niya while we're playing Cute Without the E. feel na feel niya ang Emo tendencies niya during the session... Masaya paring kami! kaso Eugene broke the news eh! aalis siya for Europe this June-September para sa Ateneo Glee Club Europe tour shit whatever. Pero ayos lang...

played the usual things we play like Typecast songs, Brand New, some originals. Basta! tangina i missed these guys talaga kaya sobrang OK ako!

Okay, i did study Animals in the Society as a GE course for 2nd sem. Pero this is waaay over the top. Scary pare... inuuod na sinunog na pusa. Animal Cruelty... Somebody call PeTA! and this was in the side of the road where we saw it... Tangina. kawawa naman!

Sabay na dapat kami ni Eugene papunta kila Kaye... Kaso me dadaanan pa siya. Kaya sinamahan ko nalang si Cici boy bumili ng DVD. i think he bought Team America? I wanted to buy Sixteen Candles so badly... and i saw a Breakfast Club DBD din!! SHITE!

so there. i went to Karelle's house. Tas ang saya! daming tao! of course, the pytha people. Sige na nga, i consider myself as an honorary member of IV-Pythagoras. i hang out with them. Basically see them in all parties! Jeyem, Narriel, Cherry, Biboy... Naks! party people!

It was a strictly no-booze party. kaya alam mo na. Pero i was shocked na kahit walang inumin... tangina sobrang sabog parin kaming lahat! {eto nga pala yung mga pumunta: Andrei, Audrey, Kim, Danica, Jocel, Carleene, JM, Cherry, Jel, Eugene, Biboy, Cyrus, Arno, Iel, Cosio, Garasi, sino pa nga ba? basta madami kami!}

Sobrang sabog. sarap ng food, chicken tempura! ispagetti! basta... ewan ko kung ano yung iba. pero ayos yung cake ni kaye! galing kasi magluto eh... eycharem! We did a lot of stuff besides talking. There was of course.. Videoke. Napansin ko lang na me mga kanta na talagang dapat kinakanta namin basta may videoke... eto list:

1. Tie a Yellow Ribbon round the old oak tree.
2. Come on Over
3. Pokemon Theme
4. Any song by Cueshe or Hale
5. The Carpenters - Sing a Song

hindi nawawala yang mga kantang yan... Tapos, naglaro naman kami ng Pinoy Henyo! na tangina sobrang saya! Blue team ako... tas yung yellow team sobrang eager kasi parang niluto yung team nila... Hindi ko nahulaan yung sakin... MAJA BLANCA. tas nanalo yung Yellow team... in the end naging yung host nalang yung kalaban namin kasi both teams nagcocoach dun sa kalaban para makuha yung sagot... hahaha!

tanginang mga words yan! Sir Catalan! ANACONDA (which ended up sticking on my crotch. i don't know why...) Independence Day! Brokeback Mountain! Bakya! Hair Rebonding! haha tangina endless fun!

I did go home nung umalis na sila Eugene. Just had some time hanging out with JM and Jasmine. tas yun na! hahaha!

NICOLE's BIRTHDAY!

Eariler i bought a Happy Tree Friends shirt for nicole. BIRTHDAY NIYA! and 17 na siya! May30 means hanging out at ATC and eating and watching movies... and yes... CAMHURAN!

a little word JM invented the night before. Camwhoring = Camhuran! we just thought na mas cool kung CAMHURAN! hahaha! and boy oh boy... did we drain our camera's batteries...

Originally a list of 17 people. 9 of us were there. hahaha! cabal, kaisel (also known as person invited number 3), nicole (of course!), ako, bea, kigi, jm, and peter. Denise was with us the morning pero she had to go kasi manunuod sila ng Xmen. eh she has tickets na daw....

Typical lang yung gala namin. pero ewan. With these guys around.. sobrang saya talaga eh! We're like this small-THE OC-ish characters... Pero ewan ko kung sino ako.. We're way different and less drama... para nga kaming TEEN COMEDY eh! nooo Teen Drama!

Kumain kami sa Shakey's kasi deins alam ni nicole Kung san kami dadalin. at di din niya alam yung oorderin. I ended up ordering. haha nagcalculate pa kami kung ano talaga yung perfect samin. She bought a cake too! saya saya!

wala naman kaming ginawa kundi mag-picture at magkulitan! lagi kong hinihiritan si Kaytee tungkol kay... You-know-who. at si kaisel naman.. ayun! AYIHHEEE. Bought nicole a Typecast CD. ayihheeee... Kilig to the max! Sila Kigi binilan si Nicole ng Red underwear.. tas si Francis Aviators. tas si Kaytee chick book.

After eating we decided to watch the 4pm screening of XMEN3. I've seen this before. haha. pero ayos lang. sumama narin ako. of course i wanted to see Xmen again. after the movie i met up with Peter sa CR. haha planado! tas yun. wala lang. as in wala lang. sumama na siya samin. Of course... you know..

Tas yun naglaro kami ng hide and seek. Pero baliktad. lahat sila they went on to teams tas isang team yung maghahide tas the other teams would go on and seek the team. well kami ni peter yung team na hahanapin. tas yun. wala lang. lumabas kami sa parking lot. tas naglakad sa buong mall. wouldn't you know it. sa laki ng mall nahanap parin kami nila Nicole. tas sila francis next. tas talo sila JM at Kigi. tas tumambay nalang kami sa Powerbooks.

before in high school. talagang dapat lagi kaming tatambay sa powerbooks. magbabasa lang. tas magkwekwentuhan. ganun lang. bumili si Francis ng Graphic Novel. tas ako wala lang. gusto ko sanang bilin yung A scanner darkly. kaso i'm trying to save for DBD's hahaha!

Peter and I decided na mag-westgate. GO NUTTTS. hahaha tas yun. sumakay kami sa ultraelectromagneticride ni peter. tas nabaliw sila sa driving ni gago. Bea left us. umuwi siya sa Home Depot kung san daw siya nakatira. Tas yun. kumain lang kami sa Gonuts. Kwentuhan. Camhuran. the usual. then umuwi na. Dumaan lang kaming festi to buy frenchfries tas uwi na talaga!

Para sakin eto yung mga simpleng gala na eventful tas may impact talaga! yung klarong-klaro sayo lahat ng memories kahit ilang taon pa yung nagdaan. FRIENDSHIP is the key word. Ang dami na naming pinagsamahan nila Nicole. JM. Francis. Kaisel. Kaytee. Peter. at sila Bea. Ang dami na talaga. Sila talaga yung mga tao na hindi ko kayang mabuhay kung wala sila... (On Cue: Hale - Kung Wala Ka...) NAKS!

Pero honestly, i never would've made high school if it weren't for these guys. Oh sure, we had some issues back then. Pero now, we learn to accept each other na kahit ganito kami we still click. we still connect. They inspire me in every way. Honestly. And if you ask me where i would see myself in 20 years? I would say na: Surrounded by all these amazing people.

again...

ANOTHER ABM-thing at LUCKY's PLACE!

June 2. Pero this time... Less ABM people. hahaha!

Actually, less people talaga. yung mga slated to come, hindi nakapunta. Maybe it was because of the rain. Sobrang lakas ng ulan. Again, routine. Went to Quezon Ave. and got picked up by Lucky. Tas tambay sa bahay niya. inayos namin yung room kung san kami magpapakalaseng. Tas yun. went off to buy tequilla. tas yun. meron pa namang gin and cossack sa bahay.

I met up with Lucky's sister, si Jolly. Before niloloko ko Si Lucky about Jolly. hahaha, don't ask! tas yun... then Jonah arrived. tas we went to UPD kasi may Rugby game sila lucky. we picked up a couple of his friends. si Puntz, si TJ. tas yun. nag-antay nalang ako dun sa may Grandstand ng sunken garden kasi manunuod pa daw sila ng video.

Kita-kits at Jolly's birthday!

TRIP TO QUIAPO.

For a few days i've been begging mom to take me to Quiapo. I just finished The OC 2nd season and i realy wanted to buy NIP/tuck to watch it! haha! She gave in finally! June 8th

i have no pictures really. and she told me to leave my phone sa bahay ng tita ko. pumunta muna kami sa bahay ng tita ko sa sta. ana para ihatid yung mga kapatid ko. tas birthday pa ng pamangkin ko. kaya yun. Tas after lunch pumunta na kaming Quiapo. haha! mom took me there!

sumakay kami ng jeep from there to quiapo. 1 ride lang. diretso na yun. it was some sort of nostalgic trip actually. when i was young we had a jeep na ang biyahe eh Punta-Quiapo. on weekends i would accompany my dad on driving the jeep tas ako yung tagabigay ng sukli. and then whatever we have on those trips we would spend it on quiapo. kahit ano bibilin namin.

the way i see it, Quiapo had been in my family for years. no the way to quiapo my mom would tell me that She and my dad had this date here, or there. watched a movie here or there. It made me feel that no matter how gritty Manila is. It's still a beautiful place to live.

and then i arrived at Quiapo. Last time i was here they were selling pirated Vcd's and Cd's. AND NOW? OH my Pakening GOwrsh! DBD HEAVEN! DBD HEAVEN!

it was just so beautiful. seeing tons of people going around. buying DBD's! beautiful! and it's half the price of what they sell me here in alabang and 20 pesos lighter than divisoria. Eto ang bagsakan! eto ang HEAVENNN!

wala... the only complain that i have is that... i was with my ever dear mother. hahah! at least she bought one of my boxed sets! we went to this place na lahat eh boxed set ang benta. OHHH YESSSS! i got Nip/Tuck 1 and 2. The OC 3. and 1-2 Laguna Beach. yeeesss!

we went to Quiapo Church and prayed...

then to Carriedo to look for things that my brothers would love. meaning PS2 dvd's haha. and... yun na! we went home! made a pit stop at jolibee and ate burgers... then that's that! Sayang nga di ako nakapunta sa Recto eh. i wanted to buy CD's na foreign. NOT PINOY. sorreeeh na. walang binibentang Emery dito eh.

MOVIES MOOBIIIESSSS

I practically have seen every summer movie out there. well except for the animated ones. deins ko pa napapanuod... missed over the hedge and now... cars.

POSEIDON

Of what i think is another decent remake turned ewan. It was literally a Disaster flick. It had a great cast anyway. Pero something was wrong with the movie. It was overly depressing. and they killed Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas! hahaha! pero the effects were okay. not over the top pero okay lang. Wolfgang Petersen loves water. oh sure he does.

I did like Emmy Rosum, parang puro disaster flicks gusto niya ah. First it was The Day after tomorrow and then Poseidon. She did okay with Phantom of The Opera too. Pero truth is i didn't like the movie. sayang lang yung attempt to recreate the movie. Of course, everyone compared it to Titanic. Except this one sinked much deeper.

THE DA VINCI CODE

Everyone hated it. From Cannes to some friends i know. But then again, everyone wanted to see the controversy behind it. First the didn't want to show it here. But then the Catholic Bishops never really gave a damn if they showed it here or not. and then MTRCB giving it an R-18 rating which pretty much pissed everyone who's under 18 and doesn't look like they're 18.

But for me, it was a solid movie. Ok, sure the book was waaaaaay better. But i've been eagerly anticipating this movie to arrive and no one could stop me (not even bad reviews at cannes) from seeing this movie. I contributed by 101.00 pesos for the whopping 11million pesos opening day gross of The Da Vinci Code. Skipping classes for the next day was on my list of course. Anything to catch the movie on it's first day and actually be with the cosmos of the people who've seen it also that night in chatrooms.

First thing's first. Tom Hanks' hair was a disaster. Not exactly the Robert Langdon hair i imagined. And yes, he's not the Robert Langdon i had in mind. It was clearly David Duchovny or even Harisson Ford... or whatever. just not Tom Hanks. other than that i had no pretenses about Audrey Tatou playing Sophie Neveu (she is in fact a good choice.) and Sir Ian Mckellen as Teabing, Jean Reno and Paul Bettany. nope nope nope. they're fine by me.

It was faithful to the book. It was a good movie in fact. I didn't get the reviews, they were calling it stupid, and a fraud. and of course the controversy over the movie only made it earn 77million in the US alone.

Above all, for me ayos na ayos yung movie. It had the right elements and they took some scenes off pero it was okay. You could never really put a book into a 2 and a half hour movie. Which is why you should always read the book. So, was i disapointed, Partly yes, but NO. i enjoyed the movie even though it was that long. The only disapointing book adaptation was Everything is Illuminated. EWAN!

X-MEN 3: THE LAST STAND

Seeing this with your mother and your brothers was okay. Hahaha, i told my mom na we should see this early para walang pila. and well, we did. Tas yun. nanuod lang kami.

I am a huge fan of Comic Books turned into movies. Xmen is a powerful series. And they made it even bigger by putting a lot of mutants, WOW-worthy special effects and of course. Wolverine.

sabi ko nga kay francis: "They should've called this the STORM and WOLVERINE movie"

okay, She won an Oscar and He won a Tony. of course they won't be under-used in this movie. If there are underused in this movie, it's everyone but Storm and Wolverine. They did end up with a nice plot. And Famke was hot hot hot.

What else can i say? By now everyone's seen it so it wouldn't be a dud if i told you that Professor X died, Jean died, Cyclops died, A lot of mutants lost their powers, san fransisco was turned into a hell-hole, and Rogue wanted to have sex with Iceman that she got off and got the injection (But then again, Iceman wants Kitty's pussy, MEOW!)

So, will there be an XMEN4? They're working on a Wolverine movie (hey, the xmen series already focused on wolverine! why not call this XMEN 4?!) and a Magneto movie (since they turned Ian Mckellen 20 years younger with the use of technology and tons of make-up, They're making a movie about the beginnings of Magneto.)

The only thing i had against this movie is that there are so many characters. they didn't know how to fit them all in there. si Colossus parang taga-bato lang ni Wolverine, tas si Rogue olats na olats. Si Cyclops nagdrama-drama lang. yung mga kalaban isang baril lang sabog na... Pero ayos lang. sobrang bitin ng movie. pero it was good.

and you get to see Rebecca Romijn nude... kaso takip yung alam mo na. And there's a hot hot hot Make out scene between Wolverine and Jean... aww!

THE OMEN 666

The release date was perfectly planned. The remake... well doesn't live up to the 1970's original. Pero it was fun to watch and it was definately made for my generation. See my generation wants to see a lot of blood. And they give us that.

I am so glad that they didn't cut the bloody scenes and still gave it an R-13 rating. amputa. Ba't yung Final Destination may cut? AT BAKET YUNG SIN CITY NAWALA YUNG SIN!

pero still. wala lang. I was dissapointed na hindi nila binangga sa glass yung Nanny. Pero all in all, it was okay for me. it was stupid pero with the gore and the fright it gave me... It was good. hahaha! yun lang!

COMICS. GRAPHIC NOVELS.

Francis got me to this craze! he burned me his copies of graphic novels. and now i'm addicted! hahaha! thanks to him I've read 1602, The Watchmen, Fables, and Sin City! and now i'm downloading Testament and Death: High Cost of Living. Currently reading The Killing joke which is one of Alan Moore's masterpeces.

THE OC

if there's anything huge about this summer is that i am OBSESSED COMPLETELY over THE OC. it's a wonderful show! and one word: ALAVET.

i'm gonna write moer about this after i'm through with Season 3...

...

OH well, that's that. I think i pretty much said it all. And considering na 4:20am na... 3 hours akong nagtype na parang ewan.. hahaha! BUKAS ULET!

one word:

2006-05-20T20:57:00.000+08:00

HIATUS.

Tooot Toot

2006-05-11T14:44:00.000+08:00

listahan ng mga bagay na kasalukuyang kinaadikan:

1. Inarestong Pag-unlad
2. Pakikipag-teks sa selepono
3. Pag-tatagalog ng sobrang lalim ngunit mababaw parin.
4. Ang pakikipag-usap sa harap ng salamin.

Mararapat na iyong malaman, malugod na mambabasa ng nasa linyang (online) na sulatin na ito na ako'y nasa mabuting karamdaman ngunit unti-unti nang kinakain ng mga kakaibang nilalang ang pag-iisip ko.

Tama, parang doon sa palabas na ang titulo ay "Pag-galaw nang parang Ahas" (Slither). Ngunit sa magandang pagkakataon ay nahayaan akong hindi pumasok sa sabado. Dahil wala naman talagang pasok. Hanggang sa susunod na sabado...

at ako'y hindi na talaga papasok ng biyernes dahil manunuod ako ng Coda ni Da Vinci.

ako'y patapos na sa unang taon ng INARESTONG PAG-UNLAD. at lubos ang aking pagkagalak dahil papunta na ako sa ikalawang taon. Wala lang akong magawa. Mahal ko ang INARESTONG PAGUNLAD.

Ang iyong ina'y puta!

Tulad nga ng sinabi ng babaeng taga parke na si Sandara:

"MAHAL KO KEYO"

Loveteam.

Jeri's making me feel giddy once more.

anyway. last saturday magpopost na sana ako eh! kaso.... sabog eh. me bading na naghahalikan sa likod ko. It's actually scary. kasi diba alam niyo yung computer shop na pinagiinternetan ko is owned by 2 gay guys. tas yun. saburday nagiinternet ako ng dumating yung isang lalake.

tas nag-away sila.

tas biglang bati na.

tas halikan na.

i have to find another decent computer shop...

ako lang kasi magisa sa shop and they were behind me. little did they know i could see the reflection of them kissing in the monitor of the other computer beside me... ewww. sobra. hahaha!

i finished reading Frankenstein. and the exam last saturday was fine. i finished it in about 30 mins. tas umalis na ako. i want to get home na eh! so screw the exam! maayos pa naman grades ko sa hum1. and medyo matino naman yung mga essays ko sa exam. kaya bahala na si batman!

so there you go. i went to festival to catch Mission Impossible 3. which is my first Mission Impossible movie ever. Didn't actually like spy flicks. i still haven't seen a single James Bond flick. Ayoko talaga eh. parang baduy, tas stupid. and Secret Agents who always get the girl on the end is i think really stupid talaga.

sorry na.

anyway, i have seen all three austin powers movie though, and i liked Mr. and Mrs. Smith a lot. so why not start the whole spy flick thing by watching Mission Impossible 3?!

Sa totoo lang, matino naman yung movie. Sobrang nag-enjoy nga ako eh!

I think i liked it because of the fact that there are devices, and the script was funny yet serious, and i think i liked it because of the fact that JJ Abrams directed it. And he executed the scenes with care like how he worked with Alias. I think i liked it because of the fact that the chemistry of the actors was there. I was surprised at how different Keri Russel was on her role, yet dissapointed on how short her screen time was. I think i liked it because two of my favoritest British Actors are there! Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Simon Pegg (yes! From Shaun of the Dead!) and also... MAGGIE Q!

on top of it all, i liked the twists and turns of the movie.

and boy, did i love PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN! (edit: and that girl from CRASH was also there! and i liked her too! It truly was a great cast! awwww!)

actually, he was the main reason on why i watched the movie. the line you hear on the trailer (the monologue with "do you have a wife or a girlfriend...") really got me. and it worked on the entire movie. Ethan (Tom Cruise) just wants to live and when one of the agents he trained gets kidnapped he then saves the day. But then deeper things follow like Owen Davian (PSH) and the Rabbit's Foot. so, hell. it's a spy flick. you get the idea.

i did like the whole killing of Tom Cruise's wife Scene. kakaiyak naman nung umiyak si Tom Cruise!

hahaha... basically. for me, it was a fairly okay film. and yes it has the highest rating at rotten tomatoes for Mission Impossible movies. and.. well, i guess Philip Seymour was a real tough ass villain. and he kicked ass too! hahaha! you gotta love the guy.

so yeah. i guess i have to look out for the 4th one then. I'm also thinking of watching the first 2. hahaha!

...

okay, today is LOLO's birthday. though he's dead his spirit remains with us. So like every year we went to the Cemetery and visit him on his birthday. We also cooked food and ate next to him so he could feel our presence.

i haven't met my lolo, so i just camwhored.

i sometimes feel that a whole camwhoring session only gives you two or three good pictures. and the other hundred are just crap. ohwell... i produced fairly good pics, which i won't post. but i will show a thing i did a while ago.. when i was feeling oh so bored and giddy at the same time:

Good thing i don't have classes next saturday. i could do whatever i want. ohwell. but my brother's birthday is next week. and i shall attend and have fun. since there's so many food and stuff.

before going to lolo's grave. we first went to tutuban because my mom had to pick up stuff for my cousin's wedding. and i was walking by divisoria alone and then went inside the 168 mall. i attempted to buy a Muslim hat, pero i thought baka if i wear it it's either they'll put a Jihad on me or they'll think i was selling DBD's inside the dorm.

anyway. I got really cool DBD's though. I bought a nice copy of Sympathy for Lady Vengence and Citizen Kane (the best American movie ever to be made, daw?) when i got back i bought You are My Sunshine (that korean flick where the girl had AIDS and he married this guy, but the guy still loved her and it's all so sad...) and THE Killers.

okay i don't know why the hell i bought the killers. it was the Ernest Hemingway short story that we've read in HUM1 class. and i felt like i would want to watch it. When i read the back cover, supposed to be it was the start of the Film Noir era and this movie was one of the pioneers for that certain art. so i got interested. and i've read the short story and would want to see an old flick...

but basically, i just to impress my prof.

"Uy sir! May DBD ako nung isang short story namin!"
"Wow, Shinji! You're da man! ALAVYU!"

dream on, fucker.

but the movie is i think good. because it has Burt Lancaster and Ava Gardner on lead roles... so it looks pretty good. AWWW!

...

the real shocker is how i bought Arrested Development Boxed set. It was my first boxed set ever! haha! and i planned to buy Nip Tuck too. pero wala silang season one and yung 3rd season shitty pa yung copy. since they have really cheap copies there. i plan to have the following:

1. Lost (1 and 2)
2. Desperate Housewives (1 and 2)
3. The OC (1-3)
4. Nip/Tuck (1-3)

basta! hahaha! kakaadik eh! ewan. oh yeah, if Francis saw the store dun sa 168. He would fucking flip. The classic section has about 10 Kurosawa Titles! hahaha! go eat your heart out francis! i'm just happy i have Citizen Kane. and well... i need to have The Maltese Falcon too! ohhh hell yes!

oh shit. classes tomorrow. i just finished downloading the summary to Frankenstein. howell.. i hafta read The Solitaire Mystery next! yahihu!

sa totoo lang...

2006-05-03T20:10:00.000+08:00

nalulungkot na ako dito sa elbi ng sobra sobra.

DIS Eeezz NOOT ENUUUUFFFFF!!!

2006-05-03T19:29:00.000+08:00

okay, imagine this. you're in this computer shop and they're playing T.a.T.u (that lesbian singing duo.) and yesterday, they were playing sarah geronimo nonstop... and now it's Tatu.

this has gone too far. i have to find a new computer shop. But since i love this one because they have nice keyboards and monitors and i could type real fast. so, i guess i just have to cover my ears...

thanks to mico, i know have a way to post stuff and other people would have a hard time reading it. well. joke lang. madali lang. pero at least magagago pa! mwahaha...

you can say stuff like:

王女は雌犬であり, あなたがほしい時はいつでもあなたは彼女のろばを強く打つことができる

or or or...

王女は脂肪質のろばのくわである

or or or...

私はあるとてもセクシー, あなた私が私のろばをと拭くティッシュはである

mwahahahhaa...

ewan ko lang kung lalabas yan na totoo... pero sana oo! yahihu! too bad hindi pwedeng tagalog sa translator na to!

Seriously, i'm rotting here in LB. with nothing to do but eat noodles and watch DBD's and i lost .268 kilograms which is a good thing. I leard this morning that the pants i'm wearing is size 40. and my mom bought it. she thinks i'm fat. which i am, but in a way i'm not fat fat. peter called me fatso which hurt my peelings. sniff sniff.

you're just mad cause i'm phat.

and now i'm reading stuff like EpEtsEm because Cyrus have them. and i still have classes on saturday because i have a long exam in HUM1. which i should be good at beacuse i haven't failed one exam yet. which means i'm on my way to a 1. which means i could be summa cum laude (joke. asa!)

this morning also, Cy asked me weird questions whether i prefer Kylie Minogue to Maddona or Sexbomb dancers to Viva Hot Babes... which i unconsiously answered. Awww!

Den's in the airport at merong wi-fi. WOW NAMAN!

Cici boy and I talked about having a PODcast which shall tie together with our side project YOURNAMEHERE. it's a PODcast show with radio plays, we're gonna cover acoustic songs or turn them into acoustic, have an anti-Gloria section and you can text suggestions and comments and we would have guests like Matinee Idol Kaisel Molina.

and we're playing songs of course!

Wala namang bago... basta sobrang nabuburat lang ako. Sorry for the lack of interest... catch up with you guys later...

BROKEBACKAN NA!

2006-05-02T14:43:00.000+08:00

it's shocking how the term brokebackan means gay relationships once more.

okay, i'm stuck once again here in elbi in a computershop where they define music as Backstreet boys, and Teleserye theme songs like Mahiwagang Puso, Kung Kailangan Mo Ako, Ikaw Nga and also classic 90's hit like Get Down (and move it all around.)

such nice people here in elbi we have... they have good taste in music too. Oh, look! Moments of Love is playing...

anyway. this shop is owned by brokeback mountaineers.

...

Friday is started by watching Silent Hill. Nasa loob na ako nang magtext sila mama na papunta sila at manunuod yung mga pinsan ko din ng Silent Hill. So lumabas nalang ako to watch with them sa 7:30 pm screening. which meant walking alone at festival. Sale nga pala. their routine 3-weekend sale where they sell old and rotten stuff at discounted prices.

Surprisingly, Silent Hill was not your average Game turned into movie. It's great! It was actually nice and I loved watching it. If you played the game, then you're familliar with everything. From the eerie atmosphere of Silent Hill, to the strange creatures and of course the storyline.

with Roger Avary's brilliant script and Christopher Gans' amazing direction, the movie was better than Resident Evil... who said RE was a great movie? Basically, Rose's (Rhada Mitchell) adopted daughter, Sharon turns krayzileh and mentions Silent Hill everytime. And so she takes her daughter to Silent Hill and then things turn bad when she got lost and they were stuck in a nightmare.

anyway, things get bad when you hear the siren. Like in the game, i nearly scream like hell whenever the siren starts to happen and the world becomes a living nightmare. I was really amazed how they transferred every little detail of the game into a movie.

Finally, some movie with evil creatures scared me again. I think the last time that happened was with Shake Rattle and Roll 4 with Manilyn Reynes battling out the Undin. The script's good too, of course it was written by Avary who also co-wrote Tarantino films. WEEE! And Christopher Gans has a lot of great movies too (na wala pa akong napanuod.) like Brotherhood of the whatever ba yun...

The movie's fulfilling to watch too. With nearly 2 hours of running time, you won't be bored exactly. It's full of nasty creatures and hellish visions. Anyway, of course there will be hopefully a sequel because the movie was great! and the ending was... well, you know sequel-worthy.

...

Here are some moments of the past week here in elbi.

Dead Snakes. Lesbian Mountaineers who spread their legs while eating dinner. And of course lypo's practice (but that's not in elbi!)
since we're getting so bored and krayzileh here in elbi, you can expect some of the best conversations (and silliest) that Cyrus and i could formulate.

Scene: Me Sitting down and listening to Death Cab for Cutie.
[Enter Cyrus.]
Cyrus: Pare, ano yang pinakikinggan mo?
Shinji: Death Cab for Cutie pare...
Cyrus: Death Cab?! Diba yan yung sinakyan nila Jennifer Love sa If Only.
Shinji: Ay sige, sino yung Cutie?
Cyrus: Si Jeniffer Love Hewitt.

Scene: Walking with Jonah and Mico with Cyrus of course.

Cyrus: San kaya galing yung pangalan ng Mamplasan?
Shinji: Ganito yan, nung unang panahon sumakay ng pedicab si Jonah. Tas yung driver hindi alam yung papunta sa plaza. Kaya natatarantang tinanong niya si Jonah... "Mam, Plazan?!"
Cyrus: [Nasty Stare] ... Ewan ko sayo pare. Ang corny Mo!

...

Saturday means a date with Cici boy. We opted to watch Slither because it has nice reviews over the internet and critics but didn't do good in the Box Office. Nagkita kami ni Ciciboy sa Festi at around 10 with his new guitar (which is so pogi.) and walked all the way to town. Routine procedure.

We watched the 12:30 screening and here comes another of R-18 movies that we got into. MWAAHHAHA!

SLITHER WAS FUCKING HILLARIOUS! it was a great weekend for movies nga eh. With Silent Hill yesterday and Slither this saturday.

Starla Grant (from the 40 year old virgin's Elizabeth Banks. She played that horny bookstore clerk) loves his husband Grant Grant. But when aliens started to take over Grant's body and he starts killing farm animals and slaughtering dogs, Starla worries. Along with the police chief (Serenity's Nathan Fillion in another One-liner amazing role) and the whole Wheelsy town they haunt down Grant who looks like a giant alien squid and look for Brenda, the missing girl whom grant turned into a huge huge huge round girl filled with slithering maggot-aliens. But when the slithering maggot-aliens escape they start slithering through the people and turning them into Zombies.

I know, i know. If you read my plot this is exactly B-movie material. The movie's braveness of admitting that it is for a fact a B-movie triumphs with a great script and gore. I loved the whole Comedy-horror idea which they did with Shaun of the Dead. Shaun of the Dead is still a superior flick for me since they called it Rom-Com-Zom. but this time with slither, it's Romantic Comedy with Zombies and Aliens.

Nathan Fillion is now my favoritest actor with the best one liners. and the movie is filled with major one-liners like:

"This bitch is hardcore."
"Make the bitch stop, She's hurting me!"
"Waaa! Cocksucker!"

what's more amazing is the capability of an Air Supply song (Every Woman in the World) to be the most effective theme song i've heard in years. Oh god, we can't stop laughing whenever the song is on!

Overall, this is by far the most impressive B-movie i've seen. And it's so fucking hillarious!

...

Sunday means family day! and the whole family's in our house to celebrate Tito Boy's 56th birthday. and drinks were there! sobrang lasing ako by the end of the evening. Pero before that i went to vanessa's party muna. And did a little mingling. pagkauwi ko dumating yata yung kapatid ni Champ! AWWW! Si Chino who's equally fafable... AWWW!

hahaha! anyway. we drank tequilla, brandy and beer. yes. so after that. sabog na sabog ako.

...

Monday we went to MARKET! MARKET! and did stuff. i bought new glasses which is Emo glasses with prescription. wala lang. and now, i'm stuck here in elbi.. so far, not good.

Sobrang boring dito. i hope i could just float away to a better day (naks, anong song to?!)

here's the list of things to be excited about:
1. I LOVE NEW YORK! - awww! it's Jolina and Marvin back together!
2. Cueshe's new video! - awww! it's co-directed by Quark Henares!
3. Bituing walang Ninging - awww! More Teleserye gayness!
4. Mikki's eviction in PBB-teens - awww! the bitch's getting evicted!

What's good news is that in the papers i've read there are more and more films in production this year. There's the Kapag Tumibok ang Puso with Bong Revilla and Ai Ai Delas Alas with Precious Lara, and then there's this Musical directed by Quark Henares! with Angel Locsin and Dennis Trillo. and then there's this new indie horror flick that francis and i saw while watching Slither. It's Siquijor with COCO MARTIN! awww! if you've seen Masahista, then you might know how gay Coco Martin is! Aww!

Speaking of Mikki, i really hate her. wala lang. ang corny niya eh. same with Bam na niloloko nila ako na kamuka ko daw talaga. Tanginang yan! Xenxa na ah. pero kadire talaga. nung lasing ako pumayag nalang ako sa mga pinagsasabi nila Jeri at Danica at Mike Sy! weee! And then there's Gerald who's so Brokeback and talks about another housemate who's a guy and telling in tears that "he's such a sweet boy"

ewan. tawa ako ng tawa nung lumabas si Aldred. parang nabaliw kasi si Aldred sa loob ng bahay. tas iyakan sila ng iyakan! hahahaha! tas si Fred mukang ewan. Tas si Nina nung na-nominate me naka-hang na uhog! AWWW!

12 hours of unpresidented sleep.

2006-04-26T15:19:00.000+08:00

I've been sleeping everyday for the rest of the week.

and could someone explain me how the hell we're going to compete in that band contest without practicing for weeks. it's either we lose or really suck. those are the complete options right now. and it's actually sad, because i miss the guys and even though i have only one class per day. i don't get to spend much time with them.
yesterday, i connected to every site i could, but then nothing mattered.

monday, i bought a flute which i don't know how to fucking play. But i could play the "You closed, your eyes..." on my flute that's from Clutching if you don't know.

Anyhow, my flute's name is actually "DILDO" don't ask why. Monday, i slept at 6pm and woke up the next day. Sabi nga nila Cy, dumating kami, tulog ka. pagkagising namin tulog ka parin...

yahihu.

anyway. yesterday i slept at 1am cause i'm watching red eye. and then i woke up at 7am. ate breakfast (which is potato chips.) and then slept and then woke up at 12pm. and now here i am.

I am completely addicted to my HUM1 class right now. though, my prof is uninteresting. Don't ask. i just had a debade with him a few minutes ago about the nature of Edgar Allan Poe. he says that the narrator's name is Mason something, but for me he is actually anonymous, and the mason thing is just a description of his work with the Masons. anyway, my classmates agrees so that makes them... err. i don't want to talk about it.

then there was a YOU in it. i debated that the you character is fortunato himself and the narrator is actually going to confess in the grave of Fortunato what he did to him. I got this crazy idea from Chuck Palahniuk's Haunted where after the killer hides the body and the police discovers the exact location, they're gonna put microphones on it because they are terribly sure that the killer would go there and talk to the corpse.

anyway, that was my crazy idea. which i am so sure that Chuck might've gotten from Edgar Allan Poe, because he loves that shit. so there you go. But my classmates aren't actually debatable. I have a seatmate who's a heartthrob whom all girls look at. so you might want to think that sometimes they glance over me too. and there's this 2 chicks in front who are so lande and ingay ever! ya ya ya! naman them!
so this is life actually.

I'm finishing Frankenstein, since we have a test about it. And it's not entirely boring really. just different fron the Frankenstein you watch in movies. It's better this way for me anyway.

Yesterday, i was off watching trailers and music videos. TBS's MakeDamnSure is what i watched first. I actually think that Adam Lazzara is gay. There's these silly little gestures he does on the video. And the video's not half as bad actually. it's nice, but it's not the way TBS as i imagined them. Yep, it was pretty gay.

Anyway, next was American Dreamz trailer which i loved so much and i would want to watch it really. Then there's the really emotional trailer of United 93. I got goosebumps while watching it. It was really emotional.

And then Hedwig videos... which are nice because i forgot how the Origin of Love was sung in the movie. It's getting really really boring here.

sniff. i feel so alone.

the quest for another thing to do.

2006-04-24T01:27:00.000+08:00

Let me tell you about summer classes.

IT SUCKS THE SHIT OUT, and MAKES MY LIFE FUCKING MISERABLE.

onward to galaxy then... thus, my friends: begin the quest for another thing to do.

i dropped math class, because you can't take math class if you got a 4 on math class before. So fuck you, Garasi. which leaves me with only one class. GET THIS, one class. every day, for the rest of summer classes.

which means, my day would begin at 1pm and end at 2:45pm. Wednesday, i went off to buy some DVD's. i found a really cheap store that sells old dbd's for 40 pesos. but they're good quality. so ayos na yun. bought some groceries. and did some stuff around...

thursday meant dropping class officially. so there you go. i decided not to go to math class anymore, because it sucks, and i'd probably be dropped off in a couple of days anyway. so there you go. My hum1 class... well... i have a professor who thinks Victor Hugo wrote The Count of Monte Cristo (i wanted to correct him that it was Alexandre Dumas, but sadly, wasn't able to.) and he's really really, makulet. and he knows me from Kuya Rom in LTS. and there you go...

and if you really look at him, he looks like that Dr. Finklestein (tama ba?) from tim burton's the nightmare before christmas... he looks like it talaga... or or or... That guy (yung parang loko.) sa The Maid. yes, but my professor is nice... OKAY OKAY OKAY?!

anyway, this sem we're supposed to read Frankenstein and Sophie's World or Solitaire Mystery. Frankenstein it is.. but i'm still reading Haunted. so, i have to finish it by tomorrow and finally grab the copy of Frankenstein..

for a project we're supposed to have a journal about Sophie's World or Solitaire Mystery.. so whatever. i'm writing and seriously taking the subject... there you gooo!!

Cyrus and Mico went home that Friday night. ended up having dinner with them. Lucky Bastards, wala nang klase during Saturdays... and i am bound to eternal hell if my prof doesn't cancel my saturday classes.

so friday night after dinner with jonah and mico and cy, went back to the dorm and Made Toast. don't ask how, but i made toast! hahaha! anyway... it was just me and jed, and i was watching Garage days nung nag-brown OUT.

WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH... ayoko na! ayoko na!

araw araw nasa dorm lang ako. walang ginagawa. nakatunganga. sana iba nalang ginawa ko. wag lang to... The Quest for Another Thing To Do. starts today.

on my to-do list for this summer:

1. buy and learn how to play the guitar again
2. Bleach hair
3. Finish Hum 1 Course.
4. Crosstitch
5. Learn how to play the Flute/Harmonica
6. Finish left-out books.

i haven't thought about it, but i should buy a guitar and learn how to play it and make awesome songs and wala lang...

oh yeah, i am sort of finished with my short story entitled: "The Irony of not getting any" about Benny whose family is in the underground pinoy porn industry and he struggles as the only virgin in the family. wala lang.

i plan to make another one this week, i probably should just write and write and write. this week, i'm writing this short story which was originally a short film i wanted to do if i had a camera. anyway, i should write the story first. it's about post-it breakups and sugarfree concerts. i don't have a title yet... pero anything would do, maybe a line from what i've written.

It's actually the most Pointless summer of my entire life, but i'm making it the most Meaningful.

i'm so-so about bleaching my hair. imagine me with white hair. scary, i'm buying black dye, just in case... uhhh... okay. SATURDAY!

Saburday, i left for class at 12pm. and no one is around. walang tao sa Elbi. scary scary scary. anyway. my classes started at 1pm. and ended at 1:30. next saturday daw baka walang klase. yahihu! dapat every saturday na, or else, you suck sir.

pinasundo ako ni mama kasi nasa calamba sila, nagsuswimming. so pumunta kami sa Garden Inn Resort (which actually is, a motel.) and then ate food, and then went back home. Actually joke lang. dumiretso na ako kila Cy.

inantay ko sila cici boy at kaisel sa HBC. nakita ko si mico, we were laughing at my Rapper Attire. i wanted to go in style nga kasi diba?! hahaha! anyway. ayun! pagdating namin kila Cy, kami lang... walang iba.

usap lang kami the entire night, sila Jeyem parin naman yung darating... tas si Arno...

tas yun, actually. vague ang memories ko sa sobrang kalasingan. basta dalawang matador, tatlong grande. sabog. tawa ako ng tawa sa mga unang pinaguusapan namin, yung mga ilan naging crushes mo, best boobs in munsci, most hated teacher.. mga ganun! hahah! tas wala lang talaga.. as in walang wala talaga.

it was fun playing as a nigga, haha, tangina. Nigga nigga, Tangina. wala lang. as in todong puro kagaguhan lang. nagpapatugtog ng ROLLIN si Cy. tas sasayaw kami. i get to master the HARLEM SHAKE beybeh and dance the macaroni and slap my ass. and well.. stuff. hahaha. basta it was fun!

i remembered, whenever we'd start a "SINONG CRUSH MO" topic, we would set the MP3 player at Broken Sonnet. and then we'd start talking. the funniest thing is that, pag si kaisel na yung magkukwento... the song would be "HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO" that gay song from Shrek2. tas tawa talaga kami ng tawa...

anyway, it was fun, from mixing brandy with beer again. to puking outside Cy's house. To kaisel's very first Brandy Shot and actually heating up like he got allergies... his face and eyes were so red. di talaga pwedeng uminom tong bading na to...

LOOKIE LOOKIE At Kaisel's picture! haha.. anyway.. ang daming pictures dun sa multipy... haven't fixed it yet. mamaya pa siguro.. i'll update nalang later.

much like the brandy, it was a golden night. and thanks to the birthday celebrant. another mission towards the cosmos achieved. alavet when we're tipsy and only 17. YAHIHU!!!! alavyu francis! though Karen C. and Eugene weren't there... they would never taste Shin-Dawg's MAGICAL HARLEM SHAKE.

fun fun fun fun fun.

anyway, we went home at 4am. i got at home at 4:30. bumaba ako ng jeep, suka. bumaba ako ng trike, suka. Inang yan! wahhhhhhh.. naligo muna ako bago natulog... shite shite shite...

anyway, this sunday i just played cards with my cousins. akala ko talaga showing na yung Silent hill. tanginang yan! niyaya ko sila. so punta kaming festival... tas wala pa daw silent hill! it was on the papers nung friday that it apparently "OPENS TOMORROW!!!" and they call it the FIRST BIG SUMMER HIT. sabagay, madaling maloko ang mga pinoy..

we ended up wathcing PAMAHIIN, which i certainly had doubts about because of the really really lame trailer. and oh, YEAH! THE MOVIE WAS... lame.

okay, Noel (Dennis Trillo) came from the States with his girlfriend Elaine (that's Iya Villania) because his best friend Damian (Paolo Contis) commited suicide. He goes around the funerals and not believing in any of the PinoySuperstitons. So what would you get if you go straight home back from the funeral?

well, you get ghosts in shining lights, in mime makeup and black eyeshadow with fake blood coming from the eyes at the side of your van, following you. Then you'd get all the ghosts from the funeral home in your house! WOW! That is amazing!

fast forward to when the movie actually gets interesting... well, marian rivera (who looks like Jang-Gyeum) comes and steals Dennis Trillo from Iya Villania (talk about a bitch fit.) and then when ghosts appear Iya Villania throws off this facial expression which is perfect to mimic if you had an encounter with Michael Jackson.

i couldn't describe it. it was truly Iya Villania-ish. and it's a fucking riot. It's fear, mixed with Awe and the scary feeling of actually seeing Michael Jackson in front of you... Yes, that's it Exactly! YAHIHU!

like any horror film in recent years, it of course has a twist. (which i won't tell that the twist is that Marian Rivera is actually the ghost who kills and Paolo Contis is the one Warning Iya villania to get the fuck out of the house. That's the twist i won't be revealing.) And you know what?! I remembered that i actually used that same twist back in 3rd year high school when i was writing my first Screenplay. That film with Garasi on it? Thank god, it got shelved because with her on the poster. It wouldn't sell.

...

i went home and watched PINOY BIG BROTHER TEEN EDITION. call me sourgraping and all but i really think na sana nandun ako sa show na yun. hahaha. HELL YES! feeling feeling. pero i fit sana. and if i was there... i would think na yung chinita ang bibigay saking partner... or si Mr. Discipline... awww!

anyway, right now i am gonna call it the 6-week artista search posed as a reality tv program. Let's admit it. none of the teens inside that fricking house will go out unpopular. the whole country is watching them, of course meron silang FANS. tas magkakaron narin ng FANS KITA na show ang ABSCBN.

already that haunting theme song of FANS KITA is playing through my mind.

i wish they'd mimic the guys in USA, where BIG BROTHER TEEN EDITION became the show to watch if you want to see teens having sex. It's on my mind right now. That Atenista would hit off with the girl from Assumption.

already Peter's Assumptionista Girl song is playing on my mind...

anyhow...

i shall watch PBB-Teen everyday for now, i think. Kung nandun sana ako mas mazaya zannah!

...

The movie is so beautiful, it fully describes what ART FILM truly means.

Jang-Gyeum my ass, this is a giant leap from the cook you knew in TV. this movie made me laugh, cry, and be amazed at how beautful the cinematics was. it was perfect in every manner. a great script. a wonderful story. it was really beautiful.

though my mom hates the movie. i can't blame her. it's not for everybody. Now, i am so excited to watch Oldboy and Sympathy for Mr. Vengence... wahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

...

Lypoinduction is out , and FISTSVs.FENCES in. Welcome us. Post-Hardcore/Electronica/Emo. YAHIHU! Sorry, hindi na kami lypoinduction eh... baka magpalit na talaga. we're thinking na hindi kami maseseryoso if ever Lypoinduction pangalan namin.... and FistsVs.Fences sounds like a serious band... so there you go!

anyway. updates later later later.

TOMORROW IS ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL AND FUN-FILLED DAY IN LOS BANOS!

can you taste the sarcasm?

First of Summer (classes.)

2006-04-19T10:31:00.000+08:00

Boring. just when i thought na superduper prepared na ako na bumalik sa math building biglang nakalagay sa blackboard ng room eh:

"Hey Class, I'll meet you tomorrow! No Prerog! Hugs."

okay. inimbento ko lang yung hugs. pero merong smiley. which is irritating. Based on experience mabait daw yung magiging prof ko. sana hindi siya maging hindrance sa goal ko na uno ang grade. YAHIHU!

it's so frigging hot here in Los Banos. i should buy groceries and an umbrella after my Hum1 Class. which is hours away. anyway. pati dito sa computer shop na cost cutting yata sobrang init. ROOOOAARRR... the only thing that is soo good about summer is that you get allowance and actually get money. if i don't spend much, by the end of the summer i could save enough money to go to BORACAY!

except for one little detail.. i don't know how to.

During my birthday i gave myself a really really good deal. Which is to save enough cash to go to boracay alone next summer when i turn 18... it's sort of a oh-my-god-im-18 thing that i should be doing. And i promise to at least lose some weight and be crowned as the sexiest fat guy in boracay... naks! that rhymes...

FULL ALLOWANCE BEYBEH! and for 4 days here in Elbi... it's so lakkeh, lakkeh lakkeh.

anyway. last night because internet connection suddenly fired me down i was going on my old files and actually discovered my old old high school pictures. now that i have long and beautiful (okay, exage.) black hair it's time that you saw me in a different picture. back when i was fucking bald and actually vain-er than mr. jeyem tuason.

naks! vain meaning actually getting out of the shower with shampoo all over your hair and soap all over the body and take a frigging picture. there you go, you haven't done that have you jm?!

and what was so funny is that back when i had my 3650 installed with tons of applications, there was this application called face warp wherein you take someone's picture and totally wreck their faces automatically... well, one day. i remember actually taking so many munscian's faces and warp them all the way... here's the end result.

holy cow kurimao! talo pa the ring beybeh... Fatima looks like a retard and jeyem looks like an alien guy sent from planet whatever. and jano's big smile is really big... and mico looks like a gorilla.

of course, you also spot pictures from choir practices back when eugene doesn't know how to shave his moustache and rapes val nacion every fucking minute...

i sure hope i could find pictures of Kaisel back then. the funny thing is that i have all pictures archived and i know when they are actually taken. which makes the memories actually last longer! hahaha! and i do remember this picture...

a couple of weeks ago we were talking on whether she has a copy of our only pictures together.. thanks to my collection and act of not erasing anything from the computer... i managed to save some important and memorable moments such as these:

we look hott together... hahaha!

and of course, who could forget the day i actually touched Jollibee's ass on my brother's birthday party! LAKKEH LAKKEH!

ohhh... alavet. this just proves that you shouldn't throw away stuff and that i should buy another hard disk because i'm running out of space...

more good news means that i got my camera last night. meaning i can now fully document Cici Boy's party with pictures of us in our own semi-ridiculous costumes. Meaning me as Shin-Dawg. you can now see me in the most ghetto of all ghetto attires. SALBAKUH to tha H!

...

i was watching Susan Sarandon's memorial speech in the movie Elizabethtown. i loved that scene. it was really touching and i wanted to cry... sniff sniff... anyway. you have to see it to (maybe) feel what i felt...

Elizabethtown is actually a good movie. though it was always compared to Garden State. Well, yeah actually halos magkapareho sila ng premise. and Garden State will always be better. pero in some aspects Elizabethtown is different than Garden State. and the cast for Elizabethtown is really nice. and Cameron Crowe knows how to make a film... with almost famous... and also Francis Cabal's favorite TOM CRUISE produced this film.

anyway. Elizabethtown is crazier than Garden State and it made me cry a bit because of Susan Sarandon's memorial speech... anyway. it was nice...

...

SO GANITO NALANG PALA BUHAY KO DITO SA LOS BANOS NGAYON SUMMER.

tangina, bummer.

the things you learn just by enrolling into the UP system.

2006-04-18T00:27:00.000+08:00

the number one thing that i've learned today is that:

Princess Garasi is a bitch and there's no doubt about that.

...

if you're asking why all of the sudden i am that mad again to her... well, ask no more. as you all know. today is my enrollment for summer classes. and well, i am not that too excited to enroll really. because last semester it was really a big hassle enrolling to the system.

and today i actually thought that i would just fall in line sa college window. and then pay my way sa may ncas... But NOOOOHHH... what do they slap my face with?

"May kulang ka pa sa Libe, kumuha ka ng clearance"

holy motherfucking piece of madepaka shet. Salabakuh to tha H. tanginang yan. wala akong kulang sa lintek na library na yan! sa galit ko bigla nalang akong napadpad sa Libe... kahit parang isang kilometro yata ang layo nun (okay, exage.)

when i got there... nawawala daw yung libro na hinram ko na sinoli ko naman before march 15. binigay sakin yung title ng book (which i borrowed because of Eng2 class.) anyway. they asked me to look for it in the shelves. the other book was there pero yung isa wala.

sabi ba naman sakin hanapin ko daw yung libro or hanapin ko yung library card ko. Actually di ko alam kung nasan na yung library card ko kaya sobrang pissed off na ako at this point. Ano ba naman klaseng kagaguhan tong college library na to. putangina naman talaga oh. BADTRIP NG LINTEK NA LIBRARY NA YAN.

hiniram ko yung libro. sinoli ko. at winala nila. putangina.

anyway. wala naman akong magagawa kundi bumalik sa dorm at hanapin yung library card.

i scoured the whole dorm room just for that silly card that expired already. ang gulo na ng locker ko. good thing nakaipit siya sa Bridges of Madison County book ko... thank you thank you thank you.

so back to the libe. i only asked for a clearance. at ang sabi ng tanginang librarian na yan. "kasi wag kayong magwawala ng library card." EXCUSE ME. but i DO DESERVE A SIMPLE SORRY. pakielam ko ba kung nawala yung libro niyo. basta ako i did my job and returned my book on time without hassles.

so that's Lesson Number Two:

DO NOT BORROW BOOKS FROM THE UPLB LIBRARY.

and lesson number three:

DO NOT LOSE ANY PAPERS.

and so back to enrollment. got my form 5. paid for it. and here comes the Garasi bitch part. she saw my form5. tas may math 11. she therefore screams na "Si Shinji nagmamath11." paulit ulit sa NCAS.

i am so fucking sorry. pero ganyan talaga eh. you correct things that you made wrong before. alam niyo talaga, kung wala lang talaga yung nanay niya don, sinapak ko na si Garasi. honestly. she's being a big fat fucking bitch. Ano bang pakielam niya kung kumuha ako ng Math 11 this summer. these people are so smart about math but they're so stupid in real life.

ang daming tao na matalino sa math, eh ang tanga tanga naman sa lahat ng bagay. tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga tanga. sorry na, sexy talaga ako. mataba ka lang garasi. ina mo.

alam mo, sobrang nakakainis talaga yun. ano bang putanginang pakielam mo kung nagmamath 11 ako. che. kung wala lang talaga nanay mo sinapak na kita. i can't stand her. honestly, why did i attend her graduation, and her party in the first place. the girl will never change.

if there's one thing that i learned by studying at UPLB is that you shouldn't meddle with things that you really shouldn't meddle with. KALAYAAN SA ATING LAHAT. that is it... malaya ang lahat na gawin ang gusto nilang gawin at wala kang pakielam na pakielaman ako.

so there you go. i'm sorry. but i am so not joining you look for your apartment in los banos. honestly speaking, i hope you don't come here sa uplb. That's 2 persons i wont be talking to. RONA (uy, mura.) and Garasi.

so there you go. that's my day.

...

pagdating ko dito sa bahay. i slept. and did nothing. and then i woke up. punta akong town. and bought a lot of stuff. i am really sorry. but i bought stuff. now i don't have any money. hahha. sorry naaaa!

i walked around town. at nandun si Ryan at Juday! hahaha! and they're shooting something! hahaha! i wanted a picture of them both. but that's just too fucking gay. though you know that i have a thing with pinoy pop culture icons... and yes, i do love judy ann santos. hahaha!

sale sa town. which meant bad news...

1. is chuck palahniuk's Haunted. originally 680. bought for 545.
2. Emily The strange wall calendar originally 645 bought for 129.
3. 2 christian bautista cd's hahaha! 640 pesos.

call me krayzily. but my only weakness is christian bautista... so there you go...

i'll blog tomorrow nalang... sobrang bad3p netong moments na to.. i'm wathcing maury. and it's sick how paternal tests reveal the true person's identity. nakakasuka. imagine 14 year old me mga anak na. tanginang yan. buti nalang mabait ako... Peace Mehn!

type ako ng type kanina sa address tas ayaw magload ng webpage.. yun pala LIVEJURNAL yung natype ko... ano ba yan?!

She took pity on me, Horizontally.

2006-04-16T23:09:00.000+08:00

if waiting for the salubong bothers you... wala lang. i actually stayed up to 4am this easter sunday just to wait for the salubong and go to church. i woke everyone up that i ended up asleep. and so, they left me. just when i thought i could be close to God again. they left me.

so basically, it's not my fault anymore.

I woke them up, i fell asleep and missed church. But at least this time, God knew i wanted to go, i was just in the company of people who thinks i'm real evil.

so, back to me waking up at 12pm again, and kaisel's been calling me twice now, but i was still sleeping. i forgot to reply to the guy whether or not i'm going to mariel's party. of course, not. because i don't know where the hell it's being held. and i don't know what the hell i'll wear. so ditch it. and 2 days prior, i've been texting Rio and Lelep already asking them where and when would the party be.

anyway. kaisel finally called and we got to talk finally. sa san juan daw yung debut. krayzily. i'm going to san juan to visit my tita... anyway. i didn't want to go anyway. malayo kasi tas parang wala akong kilalang pupunta... buti kung sila lelep pupunta sana.

i missed going to the imago gig too. wala tuloy pirma cd ko... oh well... nandun pa naman si Aia... now kaisel's taunting me on my chatbox... ayos lang yun kai, at least ako hindi desperado sa babae (i'm feeling biatchy today, maderpaka.)

anyway, summer is officially semi-over. well because tomorrow i would be enrolling for my summer classes. which meant monday-saturday madness. which meant no more parties for me yet. after summer classes end. it would be a month of partying before 2nd year starts... boy, do time sure flies by...

what i fear most is that i can't post anymore. i would be (SERIOUSLY) busy with Math and my goal is to get a 1 for the subject. SERIOUSLY. and also Hum1. which means i have to work extra hard for these 2 subjects. i plan to do something, since i'm doing nothing. with my everyday classes from 10:30-2:45 only... and i have to stay at the dorm and practically do nothing. i have to have something to do...

anyway. i've been talking a lot about masturbation lately. haha. tangina ewan ko ba. maybe it's all because of talking nonsense with eugene and the guys. and we're still hunting and scouring for gay and lesbian chatrooms. but, i honestly swear that we are fucking straight guys.

ewan ko lang si kaisel.

moreover, i've been having some trouble with my voice. my throat hurts actually. and i can't hit a SECONDHAND SERENADE note just now. so for a few days i'm going cold turkey. but just for a few days. i've been drinking a lot of cold drinks recently (non-alcoholic.). so there you go.

i started reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close on our way to my tita's place in San Juan. it was like an hour but i'm now cruising for the 100th page already. i've slowed downt the pace because i want to digest Safran's words. it's obvious why Raisia loved this guy. he's a really amazing and equally talented writer. kuhang kuha niya yung tamang timpla that most of us looks for in a book. the bida is a nine year old boy who's scouring over New York city to look for the lock which his father's key might open.

for the first 100 pages that i've read, it's really catchy and haunting at the same way. it tackles a really sensitive topic. The WTC bombing. 9/11. so really. i'm thinking that this book might be not as successful as the first Safran book. but honestly, i'm loving this one better.

Maybe it wasn't that sucessful because of the topic itself. I know that the Americans still can't talk about the 9/11 (happy birthday, Raisia!) bombings in New York. and for his character in this novel, which is a 9 year old kid whose father died in the bombings, retelling his story from his father's calls in their phone to their life after the bombing, is a really serious.

another thing that caught my attention recently is the near showing of the film UNITED 93. for those of you who don't know the film talks about the flight that crashed and the passengers that decided to fight the hijackers inside the plane. The orignal destination is maybe crashing the white house or the pentagon but since the people inside fought back, they crashed at the wrong place killing them all.

apparently, when the trailer for the movie was shown in New York theaters a lot of people cried and protested that the trailer be taken off moviehouses. and i mean a lot of people cried. The movie actually promised to be real and i think they've even used the exact calls recorded (or lines) for the movie. which makes it truly haunting.

if ever it's shown here, i'm really interested to watch it because i know that i has a message for the whole world to receive. ewan ko lang, but they're showing it in the States next week along with another political movie: American Dreamz. the concept for American Dreamz is also interesting. the poster itself which features: What happens to a country where the president doens't read the newspaper and the people vote for a pop star than their country's president.

haha funny. and it has a great cast too, which includes... ahem ahem... Mandy Moore.

The Sentinel is also showing, not really a fan of these kinds of films.. but what the hell... EVA LONGORIA is there. and so i am going to honestly see this one! hotness.

oh shoot it's late. i better sleep. haha. goodnayt peeople.

It's so hot here in the Philippines... Let's Go to Baguio!

2006-04-16T00:45:00.001+08:00

so another day at the beach.

trust me, this is worse than Mariah Carey's movie.

actually. parang lahat ng tao na pumupunta sa Wowowee eh nag-break muna at nagdecide na pumunta sa beach na pinupuntahan namin. pasensya na talaga. sobrang introvert ako. parang si Ely Buendia. ayoko talaga ng big crowds. lalo na yung parang ewan na crowd. that's why i rarely go to gigs that are free.. well because, you know. hahaha.

i was really ticked off, because of leaving the house late. and then we arrived there and a whole truckloads of people are there. and they suck ass. i'm really really sorry, but i really hate crowds. hindi naman talaga ako maka-masa that much. pero yeah. sorry na talaga.

anyway. to avenge ano really bad beach experience, i decided to be the Tyler Durden of Cavite Beach. so what to do at times like this?

Exhibit A:

a wonderful family is posing for a group picture. and they're all happy. the maid counts to three. and those lame bastards smile like hell...

What would Tyler Durden Do?

i threw sand after the maid counts to three. i don't know how the end picture would result. but the dad screamed at me. and i fucking ran as hell. i was on the other side of the beach. so hindi niya ako nahabol... at ang daming tao... as in sobrang dami.

Exhibit B:

there's food on the sand because the guys drinking beer left their pulutan on the sandy beaches.

What would Tyler Durden Do?

Kick sand and act like it was an accident. The guys were drunk to even look at my face. basta after i kicked the sand at their food, i ran away too. kasi wala lang. eh ang tanga eh.. leaving food on the sand like that.

Exhibit C:

there's an open spot in the sea where no one is around.

What would Tyler Durden Do?

I masturbated of course. and after 20 mins. or so... haha. you continue the fucking story...

...

after a while, we went home. and then i saw a figure much like Marius. and then i yelled Marius... and then he looked back! and he was Marius! talk about a small world. we talked for about 2 mins or so... and then we parted ways... we left shortly after eating lunch.

it's about an hour and a half trip from the beach to alabang. so it's a really short trip. but i slept in the car. do you get that feeling na sobrang ang lagkit lagkit at ang dumi dumi mo after the beach? well. i hate that fucking feeling.

have i mentioned na may lumulutang na Yellow Submarine sa beach... papunta sa shore. Mom and my cousins were about to enter the water when they were shocked to see a floating Yellow Submarine.. and no one lives there.

we arrived sa alabang. since it was too hot sabi ni mama tambay daw muna kami sa festival. so dun... pumunta kami dun. wala naman akong magawa kaya nanuod ako nung kay Sandara Park.

would you honestly think that I would miss a movie such as this... Enough dissing Sandara Park. I'm too addicted to the girl that i would spend 101 pesos just to see her movie.

but it wasn't her movie. i guess this movie is owned by Pokwang and Eugene Domingo. Honestly telling you, the movie is a fucking riot. and honestly telling you, i really enjoyed the 1hour 45 min. movie. And that's saying so much.

Welcome back, Pinoy Slapstick Comedy.

The rebirth of whatever you call it. i've missed it... after the 200-million peso success of Ang Tanging Ina, well Wenn Deramas offers us a movie that he himself would want to see. It's for Vilmanians... and well, i think everyone.

First day screening kanina, pero ang daming tao. lagi namang ganun eh.

Anyway... Lea (Pokwang) and Tina (Eugene Domingo) are strict Vilmanians, they met when a couple of Noranians are banging Lea and Tina saved her. they talk alike, they know all the lines from Vilma's movies...

when Lea moves to Korea to marry a rich korean, they part ways. but they're still addicted to Vilma Santos. anyway, they both have kids, Lucky Boy for Tina and Lucky Girl for Lea who each gets a Vilma Santos themed birthday party. Trust me, sobrang mukang timang tong montage na to. tawa lang ako ng tawa. imagine a Sister Stella L birthday party, a Kampanerang Kuba birthday party in Korea with "Maniwala kayo merong monobloc sa korea" right across the screen. and well... a Dyesebel and Darna and Ding party... sobrang riot talaga.

so when Tina's husband Doods dies and Lea comes to visit, they swore that they would stay together forever and wed their kids. So fast forward to now, and Lucky boy and girl are big and they don't want to marry each other. so Lucky girl runs away and accidentally comes across Lucky Boy. They fall in love blah blah blah... anyway. it's funny.

What i liked about the movie is that it brought back really really good memories. I mean not the ones where they quote lines from Vilma Santos movies... but it's the sheer joy of seeing another 6 minute Dance Showdown in the middle of the movie. A Scene where they're enjoying the white beach with matching Sandara Park in a 2piece bathing suit. And finally, the rebirth of the song and dance number at the end of the movie.

before, moviegoers can't be fooled with these kinds of movie. but because of Tanging Ina, star cinema knew that they could trust Wenn Deramas into making another krayzily riot movie with that tickles the pinoy's funny bones.

ang maganda lang sa mga direktor na pinoy, alam nila kung anong trip ng pinoy. kahit anong sabihin ng pinoy na pare-pareho nalang ang storya... eh nanunuod parin sila sa sine. And for 1 hour and 45 minute, i forgot about the President GMA. just looking at Sandara (honestly) makes my day already..

a big no no is Jospeh Bitangcol, whose lame acting is really.... well, lame. anyway, err. ayoko sila ni sandara. kung si hero sana yan. okay sana. kaso tangina baduy at bading si hero.. so kung si joseph lang naman ipapartner nila kay sandara wag nalang. ayoko talaga nung scenes ni joseph.

Pokwang and Eugene Domingo was great actually. haha. ewan ko ah, pero nagenjoy ako habang kiniquote nila yung lines ni Vilma Santos in the most walang connection scenes. Anyway.. they get to spoof Feng Shui too with Franzen (yes, that guy in big brother) donning the lotus feet costume. hahaha.

ewan ko lang kung ikaw na bumabasa nito eh mageenjoy din. sa totoo lang, kahit ako hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit ang hilig ko sa ayaw ng mga conyo. haha. basta. natural lang. nageenjoy ako sa mga korning tagalog movies na parang walang katuturan... pero actually meron.

the movie shifts its gear though sa medyo end. there's a big weepy weepy scene between sandara and pokwang. pero it's so unimportant.. ang panget pa umiyak ni pokwang. haha. pero ayos naman, nabawi naman nung sumunod na hirit.

anyway. what i'm glad about is the ending with the big dance sequence where even Vilma Santos (yes, she's there!) gave in and danced to the Tune of Sandara Park's really really lame and stupid song "Ang Ganda Ko" anyway. it was fun seeing another movie wherein they danced around the end. Which reminds me of Keka (where it had a dance sequence at the middle too. which i really really enjoyed watching.)

and that dance sequence... wala lang. naalala ko yung goal ni tarantino na lagyan ng dance sequence sa Pulp Fiction. parang, wala lang daw. makarelax yung tao. and it's fun watching dance sequences too...

...

anyhow. eugene and i (jeyem is missing though) is tripping tonight by entering gay and lesbian yahoo chatrooms. and he's really really krayzily. sobrang bading na yata to si eugene.

i bought Burn magazine kanina. and i must tell you, it's fucking awesome! fuck pulp with redesigning their magazine. it's now filled with rappers and fashion and the parts where music is concerned, well wala na.

but with Burn magazine, you get a free AVCD every month with a mini-talk show hosted by Zach Lucero and they talk about music and stuff... This month it's Orange and Lemons with Nyko Maca. and they're amazing.

and the first issue has 4 covers! imagine! 4 covers to choose from. There's the pussycat dolls, nina and christian bautista, onl and pupil. i bought the onl one... well, because.

with columnists like Quark Henares and Lourd De Veyra and the editor in chief is K. Fonacier... well, tangina this is a really really amazing music magazine... And they have this really cool article about pinoy artists which include Up Dharma Down, Pedicab, Sandwich, Itchyworms, Hale and Mishka Adams! WAHHHHHHH!

and did i mention that there's a spot there where they feature blogs? okay. my goal right now is that they could feature this blog and put one entry there. so yeah! ALAV burn magazine! yahihu!

and yes, you do get a free cd with every issue for 120 pesos. tangina, i'm collecting this shit! honestly kasi, ang baduy na ng pulp eh. sana naman tanggalin na nila yung mga bulok na letters at bakit ba sila naging fashion magazine?

anyway, read Quark Henares' article on Franz Ferdinand and how they keep looking at the Crotch of one of the members and whispering to themselves that it's so "Lakeh, Lakeh Lakeh... Fluxxekakkeh."

i mean, the guy's a riot pare.

oh and just before i go.. if ever you're curious on how sandara park looks on a 2 piece bikini? (sorry for the malabong pic, sobrang embarassing kung mahuli akong nagpipicture ng sandara park na naka 2-piece. kaya patagong shot yan.)

trust me, may umaalog pa pala sa babaeng yon.

Tintinnabulation

2006-04-15T00:17:00.000+08:00

okay. so what does tintinnabulation exactly means? i can remember from the 1st year speech choir that it was on "THE BELLS" to the tintinnabulations... of ze bells...

whatever. anyway. i encountered the word again on palahniuk's book. and wala lang. i've thought of the phrase: "The tintinnabulations of Tintin's ovulation" for no reason at all... it could be a cool song though... don't ya think?

weird.

it's official, by francis' party next week i'm not shinji, the boy with woe. I'm Shin-dogg the rapper boy who idolizes G-unit and think he's black. To tha N my yo yo yo. Yeow. i don't know how i got the crazy idea of appearing on his party as shin-dogg. it's one of the random moments in history that would actually happen because you've said it...

i have it all planned. i'll wear my nike shox with sky blue patterns, along with my fubu whaddup sky blue bling bling big tee and maong shirts. and he yo... i feel like salbaku to tha h. that's salbakutah to yo ebreeebodeh.

i have the hat, but i'm still lacking the bling. and i need to invent some cool raps, ye yoh. oh yeah, Jeyem's going as Asian Boy (as if he's not too asian enough.), Eugene would be Sway, the insatiable American Idol wannabe (ewan ko lang.), Francis would be Hardcore XxX, Kaisel would be EmoboyXxX and Ligerl at the same time, and Mico would be Punky (Punkie would be the right spelling) Boy who has a cool haircut from Bench Fix.

it's the day that Jesus dies right? well anyway, i woke up 12pm this morning. and it's bright and sunny. and well, yeah Jesus would die any hour now. so yeah. No Pork they said. so i ate beef. today all i can remember is eating. they cooked baked mac, i ate. they cooked fudge brownies, i ate. they opened a big bag of chips, i ate. while i was reading a magazine, my brother offered me some cookies, so what the fuck: i ate.

so much for drinking too. in a couple of minutes right after i finish blogging, i would drink with my cousins on our balcony. i finished the bottle of brandy in my stash, and drank lots of coke during the entire course of the day.

so sue me Jesus, this is my idea for Abstinence and Fasting.

oh yeah, i masturbated 3 times too. so i'm not like Josh Hartnett in 40 days and 40 nights.

if there's anything weird around my house, it's that my tito is now fully embraces in praising Brother Ely forever and ever. he was planning to attend Mass Indocrination but my lola wouldn't permit him. My lola said to one of my other tito's: "Bakit ba iba-iba na tayo ng Relihiyon?"

my tito shrugged. I have a tito who's whole family is iglesia (except one of my pamangkins.) and another a born-again christian, and then my tito who's living here in our house, a dating daan afficionado...

yes, it's true that Dating Daan and Iglesia ni Cristo is both sore losers over the other. they constantly fight and brawl over the Bible. i don't blame them though, Dating daan is so competative. So what happens when my tito who's from Dating daan and my tito who's from INC meets on family parties? They drink together, and not fight. Hey, family is family. Who the fuck cares what beliefs you have. Basta magkapatid tayo, magkapatid tayo sa mata ng kung sino mang Diyos meron ka. OKAY?

anyway. my tito from dating daan totally objects the idea of Jesus being dead at 3pm. so when i woke up (i am alive, yet Jesus is dying.) i say: "ay, patay na si Jesus..." and then my tito says: "sinong patay?" in the most sarcastic religious way.

okay. whatever. back off, i believe that Jesus is dead. and you do not.

it's called being different. though i don't hate my tito. we're cool. he drives me. hahaha! and he's gonna accompany me in getting my license... yeahboy.

at 3:30 pm i plan to take a bath. but they told me not to kasi nga, patay na si jesus. being the sucker for pamahiins, i followed them, so it's now 1:20 in the morning and i smell like cigarettes, piss, sweat, and dirty laundry... hey, it's black saturday. can i take a bath now?

at 6pm my mom tells me to get out and join the prusisyon. but i'm playing Kingdom hearts 2. and i'm just finished with Nightmare before christmas and Tron and i have stitch with me. not to mention meeting king Mickey. so i ditch them and play videogames...

and they come back 20 mins later to tell me that they missed the prusisyon. okay, so i did not miss anything. then my mom backfires by telling me: "At least kami nag-try. Alam na ng Diyos yun."

okay, i am so in the brink of repentance right now... i feel like crying over my videogames, sorry, God for not attending the Prusisyon. but sitting on the couch and playing videogames, you know i'm repenting while i'm fighting the evil computer mainframe that ate King Mickey alive... and i need to save King Mickey right?.... so yeah.

after recieving really weird text messages from my new myspace friend, Maureen, and still smelling like dead shit. i decided to read and finish invisible monsters...

You truly do not know the greatness which is Chuck Palahniuk. Here's how i read the guy. First off, i start by the book completely clueless over it. then he tells me the mainframe of the story. and then completely blasts me off towards the end.

he is so undeniably, a shocking and romantic and weird writer. i mean, take invisible monsters for example. You start out where the book ends. and then pick off there. his style of writing from this one: it's like memories that jump back and forth to where you're standing. so you do not know exactly what page you're on.

anyway, i see his works as this really really weird but beautiful painting. on the outside, it's really pretty fucked up. but once you touch the canvass. render all the beauty. dig deep within the painting, you'll see within Palahniuk's laughter that this has a message that is important to my life.

"The one you love and the one who loves you, is never ever the same person"
"When did the future, switch from being a promise to a threat?"
"Your heart, is my pinata."

great lines told by a great author. He is simply my favorite author out there. His works are of genius and brilliance that only a few people could grasp. but my favorite book would still be Fight Club. but just reading every novel (the one's fiction, i don't think Haunted is a novel.) of his it's all different and all weird and each holds a special message that he wants us to have.

anyway (on how i see it.) in Invisible monsters it's about Beauty. Fight Club is about life. Choke is about Embracing where you came from. Lullaby is about Family. Survivor is about Religion. Diary is about the Past.

while reading his books, you start out with nothing. then he gives you stark raving mad add ons to the story that doesn't seem to fit. but once you're nearing the end... it's all beautifully weird and clear all at once.

so if you're looking for fun and excitement and a common thing that both of us could talk about. i suggest you read Chuck Palahniuk.

...

i finally had the guts to finish The Story of Ricky last night before going to bed. i just never realized that it would give me weird dreams filled with blood. to tell you the truth, it freaked the hell out of me, this movie.

definately gruesome, and weird and really really scary and bloody. It's not the Hostel bloody. it's like Bruce Lee decided to morph with Leatherface.

Okay. i don't know how many scenes of violence are in this movie. i just can't put them into numbers. but i really appreciate the effort of making this movie as realistic as possible. but really... The manniquin heads filled with animal carcass and meat... well... it made me fucking laugh the entire course of the movie.

So Ricky is in jail for punching the skull of a Opium triad boss. But jails are like parking lots being put into business. so the government doesn't own them, and jails are like filled with good people mixed with a couple of bad ones, and they're growing opium in a greenhouse. Anyway. everybody wants to kill Ricky inside Jail. but Ricky is actually an emo boy underneath.

So when a prisoner gets killed, Ricky goes out rebuilding the victim's gift for his kid (a wooden train) in lightning speed and avenge his death (even though they met for like, 5 mins) and off he goes in the rain telling the nurses to take off the handcuffs of the deadman, well. because he's dead. Then follows Ricky crying in the rain, practicing his martial arts (because he's really mad.) and he's crying. real tears (okay, it's rain.)

anyway. the 4 bosses of the north, south, east, west cell wants him dead. so one boss sends a really fat guy to turn him into Minced meat so that he could put him into a pie and eat him. But poor Ricky is just taking a fricking bath. So he punches the fat guy in the tummy. cracks the belly open and then off comes the gallons of fat and blood and the food he just ate.

then he kills the bosses... including being buried alive and then... blah blah blah.

so basically you get the idea. the movie is violent. it's a fricking Prison Riot. even my mom gave into the movie by saying: "Tangina, ano ba yang pinapanuod mo" she noticed that i watched Hostel earlier, and now i'm watching this movie.

so now she thinks his son is a drug addict who smokes and drinks a lot... and is really into killing people. but not really. i'm still his nice 17 year old boy who masturbates a lot.

kidding, mom.

anyway... it's really really fun fun fun to watch the movie. and for 40 pesos in a nearby VCD store. i think you should watch it if you like seeing lots and lots of gore and poor mannequins being split into two.

i got this from badmovie.org:

15 THINGS I LEARNED BY WATHING THE STORY OF RICKY:

1. Wood lathes should be used in Rhinoplasty.
2. Dead prisoners are kept handcuffed.
3. The inside of your hand is made out of styrofoam.
4. Kneecaps are ticklish.
5. Destroying gravestones is okay if it's for Kung Fu training.
6. People keep their fake eye in a glass of ice water and drinks with it.
7. Glass eyes are full of mints.
8. You can tie your tendons together.
9. You can stop someone's heart with a certain martial arts punch.
10. Prisons have rooms boobytrapped to fill with cement.
11. Cement really will turn you into stone!
12. Kung Fu masters can split a bamboo pole with their tongue. (So why are they always single?)
13. Asian women exhibit "Lemming Syndrome."
14. Straight razor blades are not food.
15. Never put your foot through a hot water heater.

...

isn't that fun... tomorrow i'm going to the beach and watch Sandara Park's new movie which shows her in a two-piece bikini in boracay. Yahiii i can't fucking wait!

Nothing's as big as your first love.

2006-04-14T01:01:00.000+08:00

okay, here's my little manhattan post.

i think they've created one of the sweetest movie i've seen in years. it's just like a love song that you've heard over the radio.. and you're rooting for it to stop singing because it reminds you of your first love.

but actually watching the movie takes you back to your first love in a good way.

okay so Gabe (Josh Hutcherson) is a 10-year old kid dealing with usual stuff that 10 year olds do. He plays basketball, football and plays an instrument. Troubles at home never interferes him especially when his parents aren't still divorced and still living together in their apartment. His dad sleeps on then couch and his mom is currently dating another man.

So, Gabe then takes karate lessons only to meet Rosemary Telesco (Charlie Ray) whose name keeps repeating on the entire movie in full.. it's not only Rosemary... they had to be a Telesco next to it. Gabe then describes that Rosemary isn't the first or the second prettiest girl in class, but actually the third.

he eventually practices karate with Rosemary and well... fall in love with her. but they're only 10. but with New York, the city of dreams on the background... anything is possible. nga ba?

i am positivey addicted to how first love was described at this film. Every little detail from first date, to first holding of hands, to first kiss is hauntingly accurate. it's just like the first love that i wanted to happen back then.

full of poignant scenes, good narration, and really really sweet scenes. it didn't made such a big success out of the box office. but for a simple romantic comedy with kids on it, it recieved rave reviews from critics all over (68% fresh reviews on rottentomato).

for what you ask?

i guess, because everyone just related to every scene. i should know because at my age, honestly, first love is still fresh for me. and i was scared to see myself at gabe. the same thoughts on my mind errupted at the same moments... though it never really actually became (more on this later.) like that. it was scary.

anyway, seeing it on screen (tv, that is.) was an incredible feeling. Josh really did bring life to Gabe. and it was funny seeing him act crazy. Charlie Ray playing Rosemary Telesco was a newbie in the business but she did great.

It talked about Romantic dead ends, the painful dance of pairing up, and (what i learned) skywriting. everything you've experienced (or not.) about first love is in this movie...

i cheered with full gayness during the first kiss scene. ewan ko ba tangina. hahaha!

by the end of the movie, you'll get this really wonderful new meaning to love:

"Love is an ugly business practiced by fools. It'll trample your heart and leave you bleeding on the floor. And what does it really get you in the end? Nothing but a few incredible memories that you can't ever shake."

now isn't that just fucking cute? i mean.. honestly... that's how i want love to be described right now! and i can't believe it came from a 10 year old boy (well, the writers are actually old.)

"I'm not gonna get another first love, that one's always gonna be her...."

it also had a good soundtrack with songs from the meadows, chad fischer and freddy johnston... but i can't download a song from limewire. wala akong mahanap.. ang nice pa naman nung Younger yesterday the song that played during the scooter scene.

...

let me tell you a thing about my first love.

Well, to tell you the truth. I never had actually one.

i wasn't really that cool back in school. i hung out a lot with girls, that's why i was always in that "just friends" area. it's scary, cause they think i was gay. and that's fucking weird.

anyway. if i had anything close to first love, then i guess it would be Monica Reyes. truth be told, i actually liked her. and recently she told me that she liked me back then. Recently, meaning college. We're both going sa UPLB, and i don't wave or talk to her when i see her in halls. it wasn't bad experience or anything. i do chat with her online...

pero the thing about Monica, was just like Gabe, My world revolved around her for a split second in history. my world actually revolved around a girl, how... err..

it started 3rd grade (naks, ang aga.) My fucking math teacher called us up at the faculty office. it thought i was actually in big trouble... then she just said na "uyy.. bagay kayo ni monica" and stuff. so.. yeah, i was in the third grade you bitch. do you actually want me to make ligaw to this girl right here?

but don't get me wrong, i secretly have a crush with her. she was... err.. chubby (just like me.) and her skin was so... white... and then... you know stuff. she's smart. valedictorian when we graduated grade school. and well. i just stayed her friend i guess.

from then on, i was this crazy beat up shit in grade school. and i actually like her, and she knows. and that's scary. for 3 years until grade 6. i got stuck with her. she became my posse, not my girlfriend. we never held hands, never kissed, never had a date, nada, kaput, nothing.

but just for 3 years. i actually felt glad to be that close to her.

we just got re-acquainted before entering college. i thought we would hit it off and pick up the pieces where we left. she turned out... different... and she saw me... different. and we went on... different roads.

i've held hands with so many girls (remember, they thought i was gay.) so i really can't remember my first holding hands... oh yes, it was with jeri... on that cinema... i loved that moment. (don't get me started.)

first kiss, was really really really really really funny. wala lang. this is the sort of shit i did back then na sobrang hanggang ngayon nagpeplayback parin. it was break. i can't remember if it was 2nd grade. pero i do think, yes! 2nd grade. i liked this girl, Celia. she has pretty eyes... and back when i still have the hots for Manilyn Reynes and her headband... yes, Celia wore replicas of Manilyn Reynes headbands...

so yeah, recess. she was walking. i was sitting. i tripped her. and kissed her (guess where). she cried. i laughed. i was sent to the principal's office. i guess she wasn't mature enough to handle that kiss i gave her. she was in shock. next year, she switched schools and left me alone with misery.

hahaha... shit i was really young back then noh?

right now, still single yo.

but actually, my first love is jeri. yes, honestly i think she's the only girl na talagang minahal ko at minahal ako. and that's not full of shit. if i would have two wishes right now. i'd wish na sana i had more time with her.. and then the other wish would be sana magka-100 more wishes pa ako.

pero honestly, yeah. she's like the closes to first love that i've had.

how's love life right now? really lame. i couldn't make it with Stef. i haven't met someone interesting (except for that girl in myspace... which kaisel is sucking out.). and... maybe this sem when the new girls start rolling in.

i just haven't seen anyone from elbi na natripan ko talaga... hmm... wala eh. wala talaga.

oh well. so much for talking bullshit. haha. goodnight. semanasanta daw... mahal na araw my ass.

People from abroad keep giving me Rapper Shoes.

2006-04-12T23:23:00.000+08:00

First it was my tito giving me a White Nike Shox. which costs 200 dollars. then, my lola gives me a 179 dollar White Shaq Shoes... if they only knew i was contented with 50-dollar slip ons. oh, the joy...

but don't get me wrong, i am so grateful for these shoes. in fact, i feel like a baller when i wear them... in a good way... i never liked basketball really... which means i look like i'm so good at basketball when i'm wearing these shoes...

let me upload you with my rapper pics in the near future. and i love the shoes btw. (if you could only see my face right now.)

in other news... I got my V for Vendetta Mask!

okay... it wasn't the 195dollar replica that i expected... but i bet it costs about 95 dollars since it's really cool. whatever. i have it and it makes me feel like a thousand bucks.

friday morning, i kept screaming my ass out because i won something. and trust me, winning something feels great. my mom read my review and she felt proud of what i've written even though she never seen the film. oh well. anyway... we couldn't get it that friday morning because of the number coding shit, which was still implemented at Makati... suckers.

so i came with my mom at school with the cool nurses. she dragged me there to help her with their project... trust me. it's not a pretty sight. All of my tito's and tita's were actually funny in their nursing attire. wala lang. and my mom is radical. ewan ko ba. daig pa nila yung high school students kung magtawanan... they even named their outreach program OPLAN K K K (Kaskas kiskis Kutkot) Kaskas kasi daw... sex education. Kaskas sa pader iwas buntis. Kiskis is for Skin because they're trying to help people by making them take baths... and Kutkot is the eating program they formulated...

the scary thing is that my mom formulated the Kaskas sa Pader, Iwas Buntis tagline. and i was scared shitless on how "COOL" my mom truly is... oh gosh, alavet. I love you, Mama!

okay. after that i shopped for my brother's milk. and that was a though chore. wala lang. ang bigat ng gatas no... so there. i walked around ATC and Festival for a while.. looked at books... and well.. that's it. I actually planned to watch Grandma's Boy for a moment there. but then i remembered the bad reviews so i skipped it... I also remembered how bad Deuce Bigalow 2 was...

speaking of Deuce Bigalow 2... i was so amazed at how obnoxious Rob Schneider was.. and i thought he was a cool half pinoy.. if you missed it he started a brawl with Roger Ebert and other Critics who told that his movie was bad...

here's the pretty bit: "this is from Roger Ebert's Review Site"

The movie created a spot of controversy last February. According to a story by Larry Carroll of MTV News, Rob Schneider took offense when Patrick Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times listed this year's Best Picture Nominees and wrote that they were "ignored, unloved and turned down flat by most of the same studios that ... bankroll hundreds of sequels, including a follow-up to 'Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo,' a film that was sadly overlooked at Oscar time because apparently nobody had the foresight to invent a category for Best Running Penis Joke Delivered by a Third-Rate Comic."

Schneider retaliated by attacking Goldstein in full-page ads in Daily Variety and the Hollywood Reporter. In an open letter to Goldstein, Schneider wrote: "Well, Mr. Goldstein, I decided to do some research to find out what awards you have won. I went online and found that you have won nothing. Absolutely nothing. No journalistic awards of any kind ... Maybe you didn't win a Pulitzer Prize because they haven't invented a category for Best Third-Rate, Unfunny Pompous Reporter Who's Never Been Acknowledged by His Peers."

Reading this, I was about to observe that Schneider can dish it out but he can't take it. Then I found he's not so good at dishing it out, either. I went online and found that Patrick Goldstein has won a National Headliner Award, a Los Angeles Press Club Award, a RockCritics.com award, and the Publicists' Guild award for lifetime achievement.

Schneider was nominated for a 2000 Razzie Award for Worst Supporting Actor, but lost to Jar-Jar Binks.

But Schneider is correct, and Patrick Goldstein has not yet won a Pulitzer Prize. Therefore, Goldstein is not qualified to complain that Columbia financed "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo" while passing on the opportunity to participate in "Million Dollar Baby," "Ray," "The Aviator," "Sideways" and "Finding Neverland." As chance would have it, I have won the Pulitzer Prize, and so I am qualified. Speaking in my official capacity as a Pulitzer Prize winner, Mr. Schneider, your movie sucks.

WAW... That is just plain Brilliant! Alavet! Alavyu Mr. Ebert! Two Thumbs, way Up!

...

okay back to my life.

so saturday we went to makati to get my prize! i was sooo happy! anyway. after that mom dropped me off sa glorietta kasi pupunta pa siyang Bambang to buy Nurse stuff. tas yun. dun lang ako. tambay tambay. pumunta akong Greenbelt. tas nagpakabaliw sa powerbooks. tas nabad3p kasi wala pa sila nung kay Arnold Arre...

tas nabaliw ako.. kung may 7,500 lang ako... bibilin ko yung Sin City Collection... 5 books... hardbound lahat. contains all Sin City books... it was uber fucking cool... but oh well...

after that we went home and i slept. of course camwhored with my new mask. hahaha!

after camwhoring, tito leo called and invited us to go to Summer shebang, that Nu107 thing sa Tiendesitas. so we went there. tas pagdating namin Pupil nalang! TOTOY! hahaha! wala lang. nakipagchikahan lang sila sa friends nila. tas ako umupo lang dun. pinainom ng beer. tas yun lang... wala na.. oh yes, i had this encounter with Ely Buendia which better left unsaid.. medyo totoy si Ely Buendia, baka resbakan ako ng mga tao pag pinost ko pa... howell...

gusto ko talagang pumuntang eastwood kasi Pedicab's playing there along with Sandwich and bitter pill. silang tatlo nasa summer shebang kaso nasa highway palang kami nung tumugtog sila kaya di ko nanaman sila napanuod...
KELAN KO BA MAPAPANUOD ANG PEDICAB AT TYPECAST NG LIVE?!

Sunday, we went to mass and got cool palms because it was palm sunday. walked around sa town again. then went to san juan to do stuff at my tita's house. then back home and then i slept late... again..

Monday, was yes.. Yeht's party.

left house at around 3pm. then went to festival to meet up with them. wala lang. sobrang saya lang namin. tambay tambay. get around with the usual party people namely: JM, Narriel, Ernesto, Jasmine and Bimbo. Noryeht arrived looking like Katrina Halili, Black Darna if you may. and then Cyrus, Vanessa, Puchi and Mico...

we went to Yeht's house first and then nandun yung maraming tao. sila Jeany, Leslie, When... basta ang dami can't remember na! then we went to the resort. tas kain. tas tambay. oh yeah, i bought a bottle of Empe just for kicks. pero kulang ang isa... so they bought another 2 bottles. then yun...

we went swimming first. tas ang saya kasi ngayon lang ako nakalangoy sa pool of iced tea... literal na color brown yung water. kaya nga tawa kami ng tawa eh... More things followed like Sliding down the slide in groups of 6. then nainggit sila... naging group of 10 na sunod sunod nagsaslide.. ako lagi nasa harap kaya lahat sila nahuhulog sakin...

batuhan sa pool like throwing clementine from land to water. and then them throwing me from land to water... then us guys throwed each other around... Doing the Nestea, take the plunge swimming shit... then having jump competitions... and Acting Contests: kung sino magaling umarte na nalulunod siya... siyang panalo! i was so glad bimbo didn't join this contest...

meron pang Tampisawin ang Panget... tapos mga rants na naging brown na yung white tshirt dahil sa iced tea colored tubig. tapos more slide... and then smoking. and then the glorious inuman!

after the inuman i don't know what actually happened... natatandaan ko nalang mukang tanga si cyrus kasi ngayon ko lang siya nakita na medyo tipsy... tapos natulog ako sa gilid ng pool. tas nagslide silang lahat... tas si rhoy nagbackflip tapos 1 inch nalang yung kulang hahampas na yung ulo niya sa gutter....

then i remembered sleeping outside the nipa hut... sa may tables and shit... tas pinagkakagat ako ng lamok.. tas nagkaron ng contest na kung sinong pinakamaraming lamok na mapatay sa katawan ko.. siyang panalo!

oh it was so fun... really really good party shit... i woke up at 5am kasi uuwi na sila jm so sumabay na ako. i greeted Yeht a happy burthday and gave her a hug then went home. alam mo... hindi na ako nagbanlaw.. kung paano ako dumating yun din suot ko paguwi.. meaning basa pa yung boxers, briefs and shirt ko...

dumating ako sa bahay tas naligo nalang. i woke up.. and there are over a hundred mosquito bites on my body... on my legs. on my arms.. even my face... hanggang ngayon nandito parin... i had to rub ointment all over my body para lang mawala.. shit shit shit shit shit shit...

even the pretty face of miguel tuason is ruined with mosquito bites....

which reminded me of this wonderful moment in history where jm bursted out that he wanted to kill jansen and "the girl" all at the same time. which meant drastic measures to give him smoke until he can't breathe in order to calm the hell down...

talking to him, because we had the same problem.. wala lang.. masaya. howell.. alavyu pare... stay safe and you know you're better off without her anyway... pero wala lang..

anyway.. back to me waking up raped by mosquitos...

it was an awful sight... wala lang.. i hate my legs, i hate my arms... they're so.. bloated and red. errr... and i'm fat already! Mosquitos raped me and i'm not suing anyone! shit shit shit shit shit... shiiiiiiiballlllllll.

ohwell... i spent the entire day playing playstation with my brothers... they marveled at me while i got them through level 10 of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... a really really lame game.. and they watched me play Kingdom Hearts 2 na astig kasi i'm through the level with Pirates of the Carribean with it.. ang galeng! kamuka ni Keira Knightley yung babae! and everyone! even Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom and Geoffrey Rush! kamukang kamuka! and you're like playing off the movie.. kaya natuwa ako...

anyway... Stef called me up and asked me to come with her sa town... I would love to but my mom would kill me kasi kararating ko lang.. so it hurts when you're passing off a date. what hurts even more is that she was the one who wanted you to come.. she ended up watching the movie alone.... which on my imagination... is very lonely... sayang. sana nagka-action na tuloy sana ako!

sobrang sorry, stef.

anyway. mom went to pay bills sa festival and i bought some DBD's... like Little Manhattan, HOSTEL! HOSTEL! HOSTEL! kingkong and Close to you! hahahah!

yeah i know i've seen 3 of them pero hey! i love Close to you! and i love HOSTEL! waaaaaah!

so yeah... Today... i practically did nothing but hang out here.. and do nothing... i slept all day.. and internet. and chill and wala lang... Lola's package arrived nga and came with is my Shaq rapper shoes.. and i loveem (off comes the face again.)

anyway. there were toys din sa package.. inagaw ko sa kapatid ko yung homer simpson na stuffed toy tsaka isang monkey na putol yung kamay... He's now my best friend.. and his name is EMOnkey.

okay, so EMOnkey is part-monkey, part-emo kid. If you throw him on the wall, he wails out a really emotional cry... that's why i called him Emonkey. wala lang.. oh look at the picture.. doesn't he look wistful/happy/weird? emonkey has only 1 arm. and his fingers look like a dick. wala lang... this is Emonkey's autobiography...

oh yes, i also salvaged a cool Spongebob Squarepants Watch! alavet!

my mom and everyone went to Tito Leo's house to throw him a despedida party.. cause he's leaving tomorrow. and i got stuck here. i bought a bottle of gin. and then watched hostel. and then ate... then i watched Little Manhattan...

this is hands down the cutest thing i've ever seen this year.

back then, we wanted to watch this. tas hindi namin napanuod ni peter kasi i think i watched the maid instead... which pretty sucked. anyway.. it's out on DVD. and i'm glad i bought it! wahhhhhhhh...

i have to create a separate post for this one.. ang dami ko kasing thoughts about the movie pero sorbang hindi ko maayos right now.... shit shit shit. I have to watch it again tomorrow. Rest assured, it's so freaking cute.

it also has a whopping 70% fresh review from rottentomatos.com critics loved it. pero it made little money sa boxoffice. pero it's a really good movie.

...

Anyway.. i feel really sad right now. because of the movie, i wanted to be in love again so badly (just like Francis and Kaisel aka The-Boy-Who's-so-Desperate-Myspace-Girls-Should-stay-away) haha. just joking kai. Anyway.. there. i wanted to be inlove...

and it sucks because Emonkey's Making me So Miserable right now, hinahawaan ako ng lungkot... shet ka Emonkey! but i love you mehn...

in a couple of days, my camera returs.. i hope... And Francis' party was moved till next week. SUCK. anyway... MAHAL NA ARAW na.... i dunno why they call it mahal na araw if it lasts a week. this is the day where we should repent for our sins.. and bleed to death... separate post for this one... haha! post again before Easter Sunday!

oh yes.. if ever you're wondering how pogi i am right now:

and they all say that this boy's got WOE.

I Can't Get Laid in this town Without these Pointy Fucking Shoes.

oh, but i love you Ligerl.

Rawr.

a big sorry for my blog. whom i neglected for a month. because a lot of stuff happened. every saturday i was too tired from parties and every sunday i was too tired to blog. and during weekdays in elbi... i was just... bored. and problems arrived and then myspace happened along with the rebirth of my livejournal.. so yeah... nuff said.

how do i put this... oh yeah.. i need to update you from the fucking shits happening to me...

The Saturdays

holy saturdays. it's party month for munscians... well... just for a few of us.. but hey! it's a nice party month! wala lang...

first was March 4th. that was Cha's Birthday.

for the first debut of the year, well it was really fun. after Lypo's practice sa major 7th (which i partly is amnesiac about of.) we went to cha's place, meeting up with mariel and lelep sa mickeydeez munisipyo.

the main highlight of the birthday was us guys being drunk. well, it seems like the main highlight of every munscian girl's debut is us being drunk. it wasn't only us drinking, there was lelep and mariel and the other guys playing cards and whoever lost should drink.

it was really fun. i mean really really fun. i get to act drunk and laugh with them. yung mga sobrang trip like haharangan yung mga trike, mantitrip sa mga babae (hello, vanessa!), those shit. the food was great too! daming food, my stomach burst open. wala lang.

the beer was overflowing. they were giving us the jack daniel's pa nga pero it was too much. tama na yung red horse and light for the girls. the videoke trip was fun. i was singing We Belong together in no time. and yes, it was a big joke of a scorer.

after the debut, they went home... we went to jasmin's birthday because, well. wala lang. i was really tipsy back then, kaya they told me that a trike almost hit me. tas nagalit yung driver. kasi i jumped out of the jeep. tas voom.. wala lang. so we went there, tas mga pytha nandun. eugene wanted to say hi lang. so we did. i ate palabok. they chilled. then we left.

tama's gone. i got back home in one piece. hahaha.

the whole gallery for cha's birthday can be seen by clicking here

March 11th was Tin's birthday this time.

so it was our date at first. Francis and me watching date movie sa town. how sweet. actually. we planned this before pa. watching date movie muna before going to tin's debut. wala lang. nakakatuwa yung date movie.. review's down below. hahaha.. later na yun...

uhm tin's debut was majorly fun as cha's debut except the beer was really late so wala maxadong tama really. but a lot of peope was there. god, even marius was there. and he doesn't really care about parties.. well.. xempre chuva sila ni tin (*chismis*) haha.

this time it was the food that was overflowing. i mean, she's trying to kill me! haha! lechon kawali... fried chicken... gosh, this is killing me. but i ate anyway... masaya naman yung party! videoke trip again. a few guys were missing though. pero it was fun...

nakakatuwa yung mga pictures namin. mukang tanga lahat... oh well.. pinagtitripan na namin si kaisel this time.. sobrang mukang timang...

the pictures of tin's debut can be seen by clicking here

ang sweet ni lelep at biboy, back at tin's debut when i saw them they sure was a force not to be reckoned with... hahaha!

March 18 was i think, the first leg of my birthday week.

we planned this a week before pa, it's us watching V For Vendetta first. and then Hostel, and then Francis' house to make songs and then uwi...

we went sa town around 10 in the morning. ang haba ng pila sa harap ng festival. mga old people kaya parang magshoshooting ng wowowee sa festival. anyway. met up with francis and eugene. pagdating namin sa town from walking mula festi bumili kaming tickets. V muna then Hostel. i bought the V tickets and francis bought the Hostel. out of nowhere mali yung date na nasagot ni francis. so di na kami nakanuod ng hostel sa town.

we went off watching V first then Hostel sa festi nalang. we met up with kaisel sa festi. then we watched hostel together. sobrang FUN MOVIE ang hostel. and i mean it... look out later for the Review.

after that we went off to Francis place to make songs. we bought off ice cream and food muna sa bayanan. tas food trip kila francis. after that, gumawa na ng mga kanta. pero walang nagawa. hahaha. tas pumunta kami sa bahay namin. tas bili kami ng GM. tas walang tao sa bahay!

sobrang ticked off ako pare... walang tao sa bahay. parang timang, they left no key! oh well. we chilled sa may veranda and then finished the bottle of GM, i was suddenly giddy from the brandy. so we made a song but i forgot the lyrics. t'was about a date ending and they don't know where to eat, so they let the moon decide.. ang labo noh? pero it was actually nice.

so we went off later later later. chilled until mga 12mn and then they went home... awwww... alabyu guys!

March 25 was my surprise party.

surprise kasi wala lang. i had cake so i invited the gang for cake, pasta and booze. to end my birthday week. pumunta ang lypo minus russel along with nicole and kaytee tas jonah followed. naubusan na ako ng oras para mangimbita ng iba kasi wala naman talagang food. sobrang gagawa lang kami ng mga kaewanang kanta... tas yun!

masaya ang party ko, seryoso talaga... i mean.... basta! the gm made it. and then the guys drinking with me, and just having plain fun, yung ingay... the songs.... everything was just fucking fun!

i remembered. i was a bit tipsy pero after they left at around 10 (early huh, we started at 4) sobrang linis ng bahay na parang walang nangyari... what's even funner is that walang trace ng booze or yosi sa bahay namin... though nagbooze and yosi fun kami...

oh god, hahaha. basta sobrang saya kasama netong mga to!

click here for the pictures...

April 1 was Garasi's Graduation party...

it was okay... ang onti namin, walang booze. pero ayos lang. masaya naman kaming lahat eh! merong videoke featuring models like Rebecca Romaijn and a bunch of nude girls.. and songs like Umaambisyon by Yasmien Kurdi... wow! that's new!

went off to watch Moments of Love muna sa town before going to Gara's party. oh yeah! we watched Eugene on Television! hahaha! sobrang tawa kami ng tawa! we were clapping once he's on.. and he's on Pinoy Big Brother's Big Night! singing with Zsazsa Padilla, Christian Bautista, Sarah Geronimo and Rico J. Puno! now that's big.

he's the guy in color.

The Highs and Lows of Elbi Life.

honestly telling you, my last weeks at LB wasn't much fun at all.. got stuck up with bad test results. serious relationship problems. fucking finals... and well... those shitty stuff...

but i get to look up once in a while. Celebrated my birthday there March 20th eating out with friends sa conga island! peter gave me a bottle of Empi.. and i ordered a barrel of beer. and we ate Bento Meals! it was fun! though wala na akong pera... i managed...

March 21st which was my birthday. mama and everyone back at home went to LB and ate dinner with me.. it was so fun. masaya. and i felt happy din.. although medyo slow yung birthday ko.. i managed to survive...

if there were highs.. i had my lows on serious issues with Stef. and then bad exam results. Serious issues with stef being me really pissed off because we're getting closer. and her being pissed off because i'm getting the hell away from her...

if you ask me why the hell i'm getting away from her. it's because she has a boyfriend. and i don't want to be that serious ass who seriously took his girlfriend away from him... so there you go...

but it's all figured out. we talked a lot during these days.. and well. had fun really.

so there you go... actually wala lang.. it's over. 2nd sem is over.. pero i fell goood about this sem.. ewan ko lang kung bakit.. basta yun na yun!

tas eto... eto na yun.

Watching Movies is a piece of Cake.

so yeah, moviiiieeesssss...

here's like the pseudo-whatever reviews of the movies i've seen this month...

Date Movie

okay, so i really enjoyed watching parodies. from not another teen movie to scary movie. Date Movie emerged. spoofing date flicks like My Best Friend's Wedding and My big fat greek wedding. they did it i think right. pero in some instances, it was just plain boring.

it was okay for a few laughs but never really showed a solid story. it was just like bits and pieces of date movies glued together mixed with gross out humor... pero it was okay for me... Especially that Kill Bill spoof was just utter madness...

and the "Don't Vote for Pedro" shirt... bentang benta sakin to...

V for Vendetta

this movie is like a signal for the President to run and hide...

recently i made a review for a silly contest tas eto na yun:

"Those who are responsible will be held accountable."

After The Matrix trilogy, The Wachowski brothers are now responsible for creating one of the finest films of 2006. Based on Alan Moore's same titled 1980's graphic novel, V for Vendetta tells the story of a future facist-Britain where the people are scared and silent, and a Big-brother like ruler governs the nation.

Hugo Weaving, famous for his role as Agent Smith in The Matrix Trilogy played V, the mask-wielding Anarchist bound to terrorize and save Britain. He's just like Tyler Durden but stylish enough to become a fashion model. Donning his Guy Fawkes mask the entire movie, he creates a mysterious entity that roams around the cities of Britain and causes acts of Anarchism.

Natalie Portman plays Evey Hammond, a quiet TV Reporter that tends to be saved by V most of the time. She also sees more to V than meets the eye.

The movie opens out in a very sophisticated flashback telling the story of Guy Fawkes and how the November 5th resounds on to the future. What follows next is a roller coaster ride throughout the dark corners of future Britain.

The script is humorous, the fights looks like Neo dodging bullets, but this time they're knives and the story is well accounted for. The transition from Alan Moore's graphic novel to The Wachowski Brothers' screenplay was flawless. Though some parts left behind, the important materials remained.

With Hugo Weaving never showing his face, Natalie Portman on the other hand shows us her bald side. The set design is fashionable and eccentric at the same time. The Future of Britain never looked so good with giant screens aloof buildings.

With a running hour of almost 2 and a half hours, it's not entirely boring. Besides being a popcorn flick, it tries and successfully becomes a political and seditious movie. The future based on the movie is owns strikingly resemblance to modern Philippines. Shown during the time where our the Philippine people is battling out the evil forces of the Government, the film serves as an inspiration for those seeking out for a new country.

During the course of the movie a line goes: "The People shouldn't be afraid of the government, the government should be afraid of the people." Talking through certain issues such as charter change and the proclamation 1017, I say this is a wake up call for us all and a warning for our own future. Clearly, the movie is there to entertain and educate at the same time.

Like any good action film, Revenge serves as one of the main dishes of the movie. But is V a Terrorist or a Freedom Fighter? For the hefty part of the movie, he goes out blowing buildings and killing agents of the government for the sake of freedom. V and Evey's relationship also reminds of the Phantom of the Opera.

Natalie Portman showed a wide range of emotions and shifting from a calm TV reporter to V's right hand girl. The Chancellor played by William Hurt seemed like Marcos except he's just on a giant screen calling out the orders and wasn't really “out there” but he still remained a villain worth hating of.

The movie served as a parable of Terrorism and Anarchism but throws out lessons for the people wanting to ruin the government. Much like our own EDSA Revolution, it ends where the people wins and the rulers die. It's an enjoyable action-thriller, clearly bankable movie and has Natalie Portman. The part where "there's Natalie Portman in this movie" is already enough for me to see it.

She's The Man

so, you like Shakespeare eh?. well.. yes, She's the man is the modern adaptation of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. same story. different period. Amanda Bynes. Nuff Said. (it was really nice though. enjoyed it. real fun.)

HOSTEL

to my opinion, this is THE BEST movie i've seen this year. It's gruesome, it's gory, it's got a lot of Boobs. And Mr. Tarantino presented it...

Do i even have to contemplate at how well made the movie was? i don't think so. first off you got a low budgeted Eurotrip-ish 20 minute introduction. then you go off on wondering how fun you've had for the next hour...

Blood all over the place, a great story involving a manic culture (and a special appearance by Takeshi Miike) of great torturers... and well... you have Hostel...

but it was the Violence and the thrill of watching the movie on it's final 30 minutes that really made it worthwhile. It was the sheer brilliance of the gore that's erupting on your screens that made it The Best movie i've seen this year. Hands down, this is a well made horror flick.

Jay Hernandez was good as the antagonist. the cast was just amazing. oh shit. Did i mention the violence? The best part was the Japanese girl's head being blowtorched with her eyes popped out.. so Jay had to cut it and out comes yellow pus...

and did i mention about the Bubblegum kid gang that brutally(and visually) knocked out a guy's head? oh.. this is sheer brilliance...

in the words of Mich Dulce... "ALAVET"

Special Thanks to Festival Supermall for believing and selling me tickets to the movie even though i'm not 18 yet... THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

RECENT TRIPS

Last Wednesday, we had our PORN FESTIVAL over at Eugene's place. He has a nice house. a perfect house for shooting. not to mention the house gives us an easy access to living room overhead shots.

Now showing on Porn Festival: Relax, Face Cummerz and The Ateneo College Scandal...

all fake and wasn't really true... we had fun though. i get to drink emperador... and we had PIZZA! and well yeah. We played counter strike. and i'm still good! hahaa.. after that we went off to town and met up with JM to watch The Hills Have Eyes.

Francis paid for everything that day... It's His BIRTHDAY this saturday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PARE!

this is my gift for the big guy and one of my bestest friend!

Recently, watched Ice Age 2. i was never a big fan for the first Ice Age Movie... but watching the 2nd part was really fun... i do believe that Scrat is one of the best animated characters ever created...

The hills have eyes gave a breath of fresh air for Wes Craven's 1977 classic. It was a lot bloodier... and well.. it was nice. Hostel was obviously gruesome pero this would do. had a few jumps and well... nakakaawa ng todo yung family.. couldn't help but laugh lang sa pagka-Bionic ni Doug sa movie.. imagine attacking a town full of Cannibals with a baseball bat... How Bionic!

It was my pamangkin's birthday kanina... ate a lot and then slept... hosted the party... wala lang... Masaya! hahaha!

...

so there... i think wala na akong utang... i'll keep posting stuff nalang more... TOMORROW! I PROMISE! hahah!

While downloading the Pulp Fiction Soundtrack

2006-02-27T08:14:00.001+08:00

I'm bored and i'm downloading the pulp fiction soundtrack. so yeah kill me.

i now feel the pain they felt during that time when the call out suspension of classes in NCR. wala na ako sa NCR. nakakinis.. lintek na buhay to.

wala namang magawa ngayon. wala akong klase sa Eng2 kaninang umaga. Muntikan nang tumaob yung sasakyan namin dahil me nabangga kaming malaking bato sa gitna ng expressway.
Sinong hayop kaya ang naglagay ng putanginang bato sa gitna ng expressway? mga putanginang bading na lintek.

galit ako ngayong araw ewan ko kung bakit. may klase kasi ako. at ang bading talaga pag may klase habang yung mga nasa maynila eh apat na araw nang walang pasok. mga putangina niyo. Galit ako. ROAR. pero ayos lang. sana matapos ko tong download na to bago mag9am kasi may klase pa ako. LINTEEK.

in other news. mamatay na si gloria. ilang oras na lang sana may mag-assasinate na sa kanya. sabi ko nga kagabi nung nababaliw ang mundo barilin niyo na si gloria sa pekpek, ano ba naman kasing kabadingan ang nangyayari sa lintek na mundong to. buti nalang masayang mag-party.
pero ang pinagugatan talaga ng galit kong to eh yung PACT na hindi sinuspinde ang klase dito sa Los Banos. Putanginang CHED. NCR lang ba ang parte ng pilipinas! hoy may gulo din dito. yung mga epal na sakbayan nagrarally tas yung mga bayan members sa calamba nagrarambol na sila... kaya tangina niyo dapat wala din kaming klase.

pero tuloy lang ang buhay dito sa los banos. walang kwenta.

dapat walang pasok! gagawa pa ako ng putanginang notecards ko mamaya. BADING ANG PROF KO SA ENG2. magpapasa pa ako ng reaction paper tungkol sa lintek na POLSCI week na puro kabadingan. at manunuod pa ako ng THE LARAMIE PROJECT tungkol sa mga bading na pinagpapatay! Bading na ang mundo.

at si gloria ay dapat paring barilin sa pekpek.

Bahala kayong mag-coup, basta manunuod ako ng Sine.

2006-02-26T20:03:00.000+08:00

Everything's so krayzily now.

So yeah, we won that contest last wednesday. I am so proud of myself. kill me now kill me now but i won it and i could be the god of movies in los banos. I love movies and that just proved my love for them.

If there's anything bitchy about it. I didn't get the question about Tim Roth's name in Pulp Fiction. oh god i hated myself. i forgot that it was pumpkin! WE got the cheesiest question though. we were the only one to get that answer. "Anong libro ang ibinigay ni Richard Guttierez kay Angel Locsin sa Let The Love Begin" it was The Little Prince of Course. i love that movie. hahaha!

i went to LB Square after and my oh my i met stef and she was mighty glad i won. Rizza was there, Sean and E my Polsci Classmate. went back to the dorms afterwards.

Thursday i spent my entire day walking around campus. Went to Peter's and hung out and then went to class. After class went back to the dorm to sleep and then went out that night.

I promised mico that if ever we saw someone selling their ticket for a hundred bucks i'd buy them. Saw Biboy in freedom park, they accompanied me in watching the Debate Finals for my Polsci Class. went to square to eat and then went back to Freedom park to watch the Show. Outside.

Stef, Kimson, Sarah and the guys then arrived. We went ahead to DL Umali and watched the show outside. behind the stage. It was a lot cheaper. we decided to go in pero no one's selling tickets anymore. Stonefree played, then Chicosci, then Valley of Chrome, then Cryola, then Slapshock, then urbandub then we went home.

The show sucked if you ask me. It sucked big time. They didn't get the 50thousand people they expected (wala pa nga yatang 1thousand eh!) it was freaking boring and everyone's outside. The ticket prices never went down. and they got cancelled by Chancy after dicta license played. HAHA! SUCK ON THAT.

Urbandub was amazing. twas the first time i saw them live and they fucking deserved two thumbs up. I loved them, they were so good in live. Ang saya talaga! after that mico and i went back home and Biboy stayed. went to sleep and then... that's that.

friday, i went to class that morning but my teacher never arrived. Went back to the dorms and watched the news. oh MY GOD It WAS FUCKING KRAZY pare! there are various rallies across the country and the military people are out.

it appeared that there was a coup thursday night and it got knocked down so Gloria is freaking out her mind. Krayzily talaga. after HNF11 lab i went home. i knew that if i went home first then mom wouldn't allow me to go out that night. so i watched memoirs na agad.

got there at festival then caught the 4:40 screening of Memoirs of a Geisha. It was intese, i loved the movie. 2 hours and 22 minutes of beautiful scenery. The story was okay but they took out some parts (of course this is an adaptation.) Zhang Zi Yi was amazing as Sayuri but... It was Gong Li that was my favorite. she was wonderful and bitchy as Hatsumomo. She nailed the part right.

All the actors were good and Chairman was amazing. I cried during the end of course. It was worth the long wait. I had to wait for 2 months before it got shown here. and it never disappointed me.

Sniff.

Went back home at 7pm and it seemed like nothing happened. There were so many people in the mall. parang walang pakielam sa mundo.

Saturday, francis arrived here at 9am and then we made songs. We finished OH Look, It's you and jealousy! and then mom went out so we got left here at home. We watched porn and the brand new concert.

we left at 12:30 because i need to go to town because nicole jeyem and kaytee are waiting for me. Manunuod kami ng Final Destination 3.

i missed the barkada. oh well... i really connect to these guys and i love them. Watching Final Destination 3 was fucking fun. The opening sequence dissapointed me though. It wasn't bloody enough but it was cool because you get to see teens dying in a roller coaster. I'm glad i don't like riding roller coasters.

The body count... well i got dissapointed by the movie. It lacked story and twists. but the gruesome deaths are fairly awesome. Though MTRCB cut the boob shots on the girls in the tanning salon... SHEESH fuck you.

Got a couple of laughs while watching the flick. Of course it's a barkada flicks. There are girls screaming and guys laughing along with me. Nakakatuwa yung mga tili nila... Tas ako naman puro.. "WOAHHHHHH!" ayos kasi yung death scenes.

but the story sucked. i mean they bear no connection to the first 2 movies. at least 2 was connected to the first. The ending gave a preview to the fourth (i doubt) it was great to see they're using a train this time. I got to think what could be the next. They used Airplanes, Highway Cars, Rollercoaster and a Train... so the next one could be... a boat? a spaceship? or (this is cool) an airballoon.

after the movie we roamed around and then i went back home. went with jm around alabang to pick up stuff for his Finals and then chilled back here.

Got addicted to myspace right now. I want it to be beautiful and it is beautiful.

This sunday night the philippines is going krayzily. you better watch the news. Gloria is a big fucking bitch. and we shouldn't have prayer rallies anymore... we should assasinate her. So kill me gloria if you read this.

Martial Law is nearing us... and this is fucking history. but i wish they just kill her. Really.

oh well.. i'm going back to los banos later on...

I love this picture i took in the movies... I'm making a poem/song about it... pero it's not finished yet.

anyway... goodbye!

Happy Anniversary to my Stupidity.

2006-02-25T08:02:00.000+08:00

Exactly one year ago...

1. Prom happened
2. Stupidity Started
3. A Series of unfortunate events followed.
4. I loved Hale's Broken Sonnet

So what now you ask?

Life had never been better. We won in the quiz contest. I COULD be on my way to a new chuva. My grades still suck. and Hale still is good but i don't like them like i used to.

Last sunday was my Anniversary in blogging and i am so thankful for this shit. Imagine.. 1 year pare. i think walang araw na hindi ako nakwento. i promised myself na i'm gonna keep this forever. It's nice to read past blogs. so if you have the time to share this fucking journey with me you could read the past blogs...

The Philippines is fucked up. So fuck you, Gloria

More rants and praises later on... I have a gmik with nicole, kaytee and jeyem later on... Stay Safe you guys...

the random mp3 player just played clutching. would you fucking slit my throat right now (bitter.) haha!

Let's go out and start shooting people.

2006-02-22T10:21:00.000+08:00

While i was doing my canoodling around the web wala lang. I'm watching the survailance tapes from the Columbine Massacre. I actually wanted to do this in high school, but i lacked having a copy of The Anarchist Cookbook. so how the hell do i assimilate a bomb. and make a rifle out of nothing. Harris and Klebold are such geniuses for killing their godforsaken classmates.

That's angst for me, pare.

...

in an hour i'll have an exam. but i don't give a fuck. i got a 101/100 from the last exam and this one... i don't fucking know. Anyway, what i'm worried about is the quiz contest later. I want to win and i'll do my best. It's not the money i'm after for. I have the feeling if i could really use all the movies i've seen. if we won then this just proves that i could be on the way to something good. Or Not.

I wrote a song about the title of the last post. It's about Let me see you kill me in slow motion. Basically, i wrote it during Bio2 class, and we were studying about the Heart. so there you go. The lyrics include Diastole, and lines like: "you are so permeable, the fluid inside is gushing out" and "my heart contracts and pumps blood... you contract and pump my blood..." the usual oh-my-god-i-am-so-fucked-up things.

I am so serious about commiting that Columbine thing in Munsci. But basically i just wanted to kill all the teachers and stuff. It was that year also that i'd seen Elephant and Bowling for Columbine in late night TV. That inspired me a lot.

SO if you asked me if i am really psychotic. Yes could be the answer. Maybe I am, maybe i'm not. Siguro nga psychotic ako. That's cool. I could be just like Fonzie.

I stayed up until 1am last night watching Pulp Fiction with Enhanced Trivia Track. I just felt i needed to watch my favorite movie before going into battle about movies. And i'm wearing my Godfather shirt right now. Let's just hope this brings us luck.

I focused on Pulp Fiction and Godfather mainly because they're my 2 favorite movies ever. While watching Casablanca i was reminded of Film Noir. if given the right opportunities i would love to make a tagalog Film Noir set in the world today (ang labo.) anyway i've thought about the premise of that movie: it's about a mute boy who falls in love with a blind girl. so basically the blind girl can't see her and the boy can't say his feelings to her. blah blah blah solid gold emo shit. Their incapabilities also contribute to the whole Film noir sense. and of course it would be tragic and sad and everything that the genre has...

but i've decided i'm gonna write a short story in first person mode (the mute boy telling the story) first.

May the force be with us later.. I hope we win. But Frankly my dear, i don't give a damn.

[ohhh. i'm gonna write something about that. And i'm also creative something a song about first dates entitled: Uncomfortable Silences (ting ting ting! it's pulp fiction!) yeaaasss... I love Uma Thurman]

I hope we win. so wish us luck! oh god, i feel dizzy.

So let's see you kill me in slow motion.

2006-02-20T10:13:00.000+08:00

Oh god, this is so Brilliant.

can you just imagine Chuck Palahniuk and David Fincher's Fight Club being remaked by BOLLYWOOD and added Song and Dance Numbers! OH my god, they're so fucking brilliant. of course Plahniuk and Fincher is actually making a broadway version of fight club but this would do for now. I just hope this goes out on DVD so i can watch all the gay singing and dancing. Subtitles please.

if you'd like to view Video Clips of Tyler Durden and Jack dancing along with the alleged Marla Singer... do click here: here or go search it ni YouTube.

oh my god i can't stop laughing. i would just love to put the trailer here so you could just fucking laugh with me. WAY TO GO FOR BASTERDIZING MY FAVORITE MOVIE! oh god, this is so brilliant!

oh that song is catchy... The owe with two girls dancing and singing "GO! GO! GO! GO FIGHT CLUB!" why didn't they made that earlier? oh shit this shit is too addicting to watch.... MAN!

...

in other news, i forgot to tell you but Karen C. and i are joining this Movie Trivia Quiz Contest. so i'm studying my ass out of Film Festival Winners and other shits.... wala lang. i want to win something and that Pinoy Big Brother Award... Yahihu!

I wrote a new song and i LOVE IT. notice that LOVE is BIG! because i love the song.. wala lang. HOY FRANCIS! ito ang gawan mo ng tono... YAHIHU!

this song is called:

Zhang Zi Yi wants Me

She may not know me
She may be a star
I dream of her like Jeanie
She loves me from afar

They all call me dreamer
They don't know me
But they just laugh that laughter
When I say that you want me

Cause I'm her Hero in the Rush Hour
I could crouch for you like a tiger
You're my 2046, and i know you want me
So make my memoirs a bit longer, Zhang Zi Yi

She made the world tremble
She made my world collide
So shine that smile, Quin Ai Dee
I know m'dear that you want me

They all say i'm stupid
But they don't know me
She's my Psyche and I'm his Cupid
And I know that she (fucking) wants me

Cause I'm her Hero in the Rush Hour
I could crouch for you like a Tiger
You're my 2046, and i know you want me
So make my Memoirs a bit stronger, Zhang Zi Yi

And we could live for years in harmony
In the House of The Flying Daggers
You're my Princess Racoon and i know you want me
So make my memoirs a bit longer, Zhang Zi Yi

...

of course, this is another LABO SONG i made during Eng2 class when i was killed with boredom.

i'm still thinking about FIGHT CLUB the Bollywood Remake... speaking of Bollywood...

Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo announced Friday the signing of a million new joint venture between CyberCity Teleservices Philippines, Inc. (CCT) and Shogee Studios to outsource a Hollywood-class studio services for the global film-making industry.

So in a few years Clark, Pampanga would now be the Hollywood of Pinas. I wouldn't mind, that's actually great news. Another great news is that MAXIMO OLIVEROS just won 3 awards from Berlin Film Fest. The Grand Prix of the Kinder Filmfest (the same award won by Maryo J. delos Reyes’ Magnifico in 2004); the Teddy-Best Feature Film (a "gay prize" also won by Carlitos Siguion-Reyna’s Ang Lalake sa Buhay ni Selya in 1998), "for its joyous and convincing portrayal of a queer boy (played by Nathan Lopez) living in an environment of acceptance and tolerance;" and Best Picture from the international jury (plus a special mention from the Children’s Jury).

Let's all clap for Pinoy Cinema. Auraeus Solito’s Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros was a really good movie and i loved it.

so long friends and salmutations. ano ba yun? weh, bahala na si batman... yan ang genre ng Lypo.

Resbak.

2006-02-19T22:53:00.000+08:00

I am depressed this Sunday, and I shall tell later on… Wasting money is depressing I tell you. I wish I could bring it all back and just… Rewind.

Let's get it on with Feb Fair.

Okay, so it's THE WEEK to get drunk, laid, fucked and _________ ß enter something there. It's UPLB's Feb Fair. It was fucking depressing. When I saw the fair… my mind made rounds of words: “tangina, eto na yun?”

Let's admit it, our feb fair is trash compared to DILIMAN's feb fair. So kick someone's ass. I went to classes that Monday, and well… just roamed around in the afternoon. Lots and lots of Food booths from unknown orgs. And well… the known orgs, I don't fucking know what the hell their booths are all about.

Bought three cd's fall out boy, and 2 hawthorne heights Cd's. enjoyed it during the rest of the Monday afternoon. Saw Cole on the way back to the dorm. Cried while listening to the acoustic Ohio Is For Lovers song. And threw my way back again to the Y.

Depression.

I was fucking depressed the whole fucking week. My throat hurts because of growling last Saturday band practice. And I can't carry out a decent conversation with Cyrus and the dormers without including DOTA so I opted not to talk, as much as I'm concerned dota is becoming (or is already) evil. But I don't control their trips for we have trips of our own. I just can't carry out playing dota.

Monday night I roamed around The fair with Peter and Mico. Peter and I decided to drink something since as they've said this is the Best Week to get Drunk. Got a bottle of gin and a bottle of pepsi. Bought my food (rice in a box) and sat down on the grass. Got surrounded by PIGGOYs so we had to move to another place.

It was raining and the programs were lame (Star in Carillion and UP IDOL, Go figure) at least peter and I had a decent conversation about loving parents and being drunk. I was dizzy because of the Gin. And well… I got back sa dorm at around10pm. Really dizzy, I started to listen to Hawthorne again. I was the only one inside the dorm since they're all out or doing something great.

Woke up that Tuesday and never went to class. Hung around at Peter's house with Pau and watched something… or listened to some Mp3's or whatever. The thing is that we have to finish our Report for Thursday.

I almost forgot that it was Valentine's Day. Everyone was in Red. I was shocked by this girl who was wearing a red shirt, a red jogging pants, and red shoes with matching red bag and red umbrella. But since this is UP, you don't fucking care about other people's clothes. But it was so funny, so screw me. It was later that I knew that some teachers give bonus points according to how many Red items you have with you. Good thing wala akong exam, and I don't have any red with me now.

That night went out with Peter (I'm telling you, this is the SPEND-THIS-WEEK-WITH-PETER-WEEK!) to research for our report. He ended up playing dota and I ended up researching alone. But it was okay, he paid for the computer fee anyway. So there, Went out to dinner with The Chime Angels (Karen, Issah, Vane, Tin and Yeht) along with Mico and BirthdayBoy (Biboy). Ate at sizzlers and sang videoke. Drank a bottle of beer and drank half of yeht's and then went along.

So this is Balentyams

We watched Stef and Sarah's band play sa Class Destruction. They were great. Big Time Boy Bawang is the name of the Band. Oh well… they won that night so they had the chance to play in the finals Thursday. Went back to the dorms with me smiling, I don't know why. Maybe it was the kiss Stef gave me, or it was the feeling that Valentine's never sucked this year.

The first person to greet me happy valentine's was raisia. And well, I could think about her and well… I don't feel guilty. And Mico won't be mad (please pare don't be mad.) It's just the feeling that she never forgot me and still greeted me a happy valentines. I loved that feeling. A lot of people actually greeted me. And my mom had the best text (the only related thing about valentines that she said was Happy Valentines, the rest was on the context of me studying well and keep my grades up and be good, I mean, what the hell does that have to do with Valentines, MOM?!) ever.

I wasn't really sad that Feb 14. Last year's Valentines still haunted me. I lost about 2500 bucks last year, but it was fine. I'm not really complaining and I earned a great lesson. Always keep in mind if it's really worth investing on someone.

It was the little things that never made me sad. Or is it that I actually forgot being sad that I passed on. I still feel sad right now for no goddamn reason. Thank you for the people who greeted me this Valentines, I really appreciated it and I love you even though you wouldn't know it (as friends lang ah! Love is such a big word.)

Wednesday, didn't go to class cause I need to study for my Bio Exam 4pm. So there. Nothing much to say… I just… well… Examed today. After that I again went to Peter's place to do our report. We finished it at around 10:30 pm I was supposed to sleep there kaso di pwede. Since Pau's coming home tomorrow we had the Thursday Free… so it's up to you to think kung anong ginawa namin ni pedro.

Wednesday night after making the report I walked the fair alone. I bought 3 Concerts Brand New, Saosin and Dashboard Confessional Unplugged. Watched it until I fell asleep. When I arrived they were at the dorms.

Thursday, forgot to go to my first class so I went to Polsci instead that 11:30. Went to Peter's place after PolSci to do stuff. and prepare our reports. WE reported sa NatSci7 class namin. It went fine… I guess. The videos never worked out so that sucked.

Went back to the dorms and tried finishing the Dice Man. I loved the book pero I was stuck reading it for 2 weeks because of so many exams and things to do. I loved the book and I really think it could save me from this depression that I call.

That night I went to peter's place to sleep there kasi wala na nga si Pau. We ended up drinking. He bought 8 bottles of Red horse, gin and coke and I bought a grande and chips. All settled!

Let's Fun, Thursday!

We watched Can't Hardly Wait kasi wala namang ibang magandang VCD. Got Really drunk pero hindi naman Punch-Drunk. It was fucking fun though, being wasted again for so long. Ang tagal kong hindi naging wasted. MWAHAHAHA…

Slept at around 3am or something. And I managed to wake up for my 7am class. Now how's that?! Our teacher never arrived. Fuck. I ended up spending my morning picking up the stuff for HNF11 class we're making dough and cooking cloverleaf, cinnamon rolls and siopao!

Went back to the dorms to get my stuff. I really feel something bad about the dorm these days. Parang I have a feeling na I just want to be quiet (in a creepy-ish Jared Barker manner) and sleep. If I can't sleep I'd take pills to make me. And just… repose. Read something. Listen to something other than deep conversations about Dota. And just… relax and not talk. I don't feel like talking anymore. It's like we've already talked about a hundred million things already that I just want to shut up now… I might do that.

Went back home that Friday. Spent the entire Friday at home. Saturday… I was supposed to go out that Evening but then I decided to watch Close to You with the Chime Angels.

Left the house at about 1 (even though I was supposed to meet them at 1) They arrived at 2. and I arrived at 2 so that's a good thing. Managed to catch the 2:15 screening and spent the entire 2 hours watching the gayness of the movie.

I actually liked the movie. It's full of fun stuff and shitty stuff. Fun stuff being the story and shitty stuff being Sam Milby and his face close ups. The weirdest thing is that even though the movie was endorsed by a major toothpaste company… I never saw any close up in any scene (UNLIKE feng shui where there is a CHUNKEE Corned beef in almost every shot)

It was funny and John Lloyd was pretty Good. Bea was fun and hot and fat. Sam was… errr… he's making me cringe every time he's in the shot but he was okay for someone new.

I can't say that the movie was typical. With so many movies with the same storyline what the fuck does typical mean nowadays! All I can say is that it's better than that Angel-Richard Crap shown last week. WAAAY BETTER.

I forgot to tell you about my WEIRD TEXT CONVERSATION with a girl (I won't mention who) whom I wanted to date but she's so stuck up.

I don't get her. She's fucking weird and she's not even giving in to experience dating someone like me. Or it's just a reason she's throwing into me just to get my mind off her. She told me that She doesn't believe in Love and some other shit.

I am really sorry, but that Really really turned me off. Of course, we all say that we don't believe in love anymore. And I've said that a million times. But she made it sound so TRUE. And to say that it's true is a real big turn off for me.

A major turn off is for people who doesn't believe in Love, dating or any other shit like Sex and orgasms. Come on, You don't believe in love is not a good reason to avoid dating someone (Me, in this case)

Oh well.

Back to Saturday. After watching the movie went on to Pacita and practiced with the band. We are so fucking mad and outrageous. And I kept telling them about my JOINING PINOY BIG BROTHER tO GET US MONEY PLAN (more on this later.) which is fucking krayzily.

After that went to town to buy My Sandwich CD. And spend time with jeyem. So I got there. I bought the CD and I saw UP DHARMA DOWn. But I never bought it kasi baka maubusan ako ng money. Wala na kaming gagawin ni Jeyem. So I told myself na I'm gonna buy this tomorrow.

So JM got there pero he's just meeting me for a short time. We watched Hale in an unexpected concert. JM got his photo taken with Roll and he's so krayzily in love with Champ. I actually ignored him (Champ.) we were walking and then champ's in front of us…

Champ is so emo.

ME: HI CHAMP. (in a monotonous voice.) [WALK AWAY]
Champ: UY! (looks back. Stops. Looks at me. Stops again.)

Ang mean ko. Buti pa si champ nag-stop tas kami ni JM tuloy tuloy lang. HAHAHAHA! Tangina! Gusto pa namang magpapicture ni JM kay champ. After that walked to Westgate. Talked about shitty stuff concerning us. Then ate at Go Nuts Donuts. Then went back home.

So there's my Saturday.

This is so sucky. Sunday. I went to Town 4pm to get my UP DHARMA DOWN CD. Tas WALA NA! pagdating ko dun nabili na yung huling COPY. Oh my fucking GOD. Kung binili ko lang yun kagabi. I fucking hate myself. I fucking hate myself. To get my mind off of it.. I bought the GAMITAN DVD. And actually felt better because of the Commentary and the Short Film ni Quark.

Pero now… I watched it… TAS WALA NAMANG SPECIAL FEATURES! Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko… Do I Write an Open Letter To Viva. I adore Quark and he's the man. Pero I spent 200 fucking pesos just to buy his fucking DVD na wala palang SPECIAL FEATURES… so since Quark wrote an open letter to big brother… I'm writing an open letter to Viva.

Dear Viva,

Fuck you. Where are the fucking Special features on my Goddamn GAMITAN DVD! You fucking pieces of cunt-licking son of a bitch assholes. Give me my Special Features from the GAMITAN DVD or I am gonna fucking FLIP and rip your heads off. I know where The Viva Office is…. And I've been there and Played in a Soapdish Party. SO BE AFRAID you fucking cocksuckers. I'm gonna blow your office to bits and pieces.

Love,
Shinji

It's fucking mean what they do… They put out the SPECIAL FEATURES on that DVD Cover. Tas wala naman pala! Easter Egg ba yung special Features oh wala talaga? MOTHERFUCKING ASS.

So there, you now know Why I am depressed.

If there's something that took me out of this Depression is SANDWICH's New CD! I loved it… and it's fucking brilliant. You should get it… Every song counts. Every goddamn lyric is worth your 260 pesos. YEAHHHHHHHH!

So yeah, back to Los Banos in my goddamn life again tomorrow.

See you around, surround sound!

OH SHIT! Before I forgot… I scribbled some songs in my mind today. Walang Tono. I juts felt like writing these goddamn songs… for no reason at all! WOW! This is so Happy! Happy! Happy! Hope you like em guys…. Baka maging kanta talaga to someday… hahaha!

Out of the songs I made: “Oh Look, It's You and Jealousy!” is my favorite song. I don't know why… it's such a fucking fun fun fun song.

GOD CREATED A MONSTER!

you're here, oh my god.
God created a monster
You walk the earth like the living dead
giving random blowjobs to diffrent heads

Hell is a place on earth too
with you right here, Sheesh! that's way true
I can't understand God for creating you
Why the hell did you create a monster?

So stare out, stand out, freak out, throw out
Be out, go out, move out.
Just get out of my life, monster.

And so i'll put my fist on your fences
I'm way angry at you to make brilliant dances
And as you bleed, don't feel confused
I'll make you an offer you can't refuse

So stare out, stand out, freak out, throw out,
be out, go out, move out.
Just get out of my life, monster.

So fall or kill, you pick or choose
Here's an option you can't refuse.
Let's take it from here and forget
that God created you ever.

MY STOMACH WAS PUMPED

My stomach was pumped,
your lies and words came out
My stomach was pumped,
your tears and fears flowed out
My stomach was pumped,
our picture frames crumpled out
My stomach was pumped,
a hundred pills worn about.

My stomach was pumped,
along with my feelings for you
my stomach was pumped,
with the fucking things you never could do
my stomach was pumped,
with your wicked sighs.
my stomach was pumped,
with the tears that i cried.

My stomach was pumped,
still you never came out
I already ate you, but you stayed about
My stomach was pumped,
But you clung like a leech on a skin
My stomach was pumped,
i wonder where you've been

My stomach was pumped,
and it went on for hours.
My stomach was pumped,
as my heart scourched and scoured.
My stomach was pumped,
you were the goddamn cause
My stomach was pumped,
with a string of dental floss.

Oh Look, it's you and jealousy!

Oh look, it's you and jealousy!
My, oh my! you two look happy!
You tagged along like Jesus and Mary!
You looked good together i'm not being phony!

Oh look, it's me and misery!
We're the fucking love team of the century!
With Jealousy ruining your head, krayzily!
Misery's all i've got, honey.

You believed Jealousy and left me
so now, Misery's accompanying me
you let jealousy in your head, krayzily
So now you've got no one, no one! You see?

At the end of the line with misery and me
you came along, alone with jealousy
So greet me with a smile and a look so happy
it could be the greatest moment in history

So Let's go, Let's Fun, Let's Wild, Let's Happy
Jealousy's with you so why leave misery?
So Let's go, Let's Fun, let's Wild, Let's happy
He ruined us, it's him! His A Gay! Jealousy.

Oh, look! it's you and jealousy!
You're a mean girl walking down to me
Puck your lips and tuck your cheeks for me to see
it could be the greatest moment in history.

San ko tinago ang yosi ko

pag uuwi ako ng bahay
baka magalit si nanay
pag nakita niya ang yosi ko

kaya ito'y itatago
isang lugar sa aking kwarto
kasama pa ng lighter ko

pag aalis ng bahay
di kasama si nanay
di niya makikita ang yosi ko

kukunin ko na sa pwesto
sing importante ng pustiso
may pwesto siya sa bulsa ko

at salamat..
isang linggo nanaman ang lumipas
hindi ako nahuli
at salamat..
hindi parin nila alam..
san ko tinago ang yosi ko.

...

ingat everyone. stay safe.

Because you are so lame.

2006-02-12T21:48:00.000+08:00

I am so having fun right now. The long weekend was okay. but it was fine. but it was ay don't know.

Started out Wednesday, after having 3 exams i was finally headed home. I went with Peter and Pau and ditched the New Dorm Open house (more on this later.) i got home at 9. and riding the bus was fun because i wasn't alone. kept talking and mumbling with the twins.

Thursday, brown out dito sa bahay. luckily Nicole invited me at her place kasi daw.. wala lang. she and kaytee wants to chill. and well.. we chilled. and i helped them glue their project together. pero wala.. tinamad ako. i ended up borrowing dvd's again. and then talking. and making krayzily statements.

and oh yeah, we planned Nicole's Debut next year at Fernwood Gardens. The 18 roses is composed of Peter, JM, Me and many more... including the Soapdish Guys. Oh yeah, si kuya Jef yung Escort niya. 18 candles with Kaytee, Raisia, Garasi and more... The Motif is OLD ROSE. strictly formal, the food and catering would be Asian-American fusion dishes, the head chef would be Heny Sison... yeah so we planned this all out.

Anyway, nicole doesn't want to have a ball anyway.

Here's the sexiest Manager ever. and she's gonna be fucked up angry when she sees this:

...

Friday, as i told you i was planning to rummage around ATC for the rest of the day. My reason was to fuck the mall. it fucked me up in return. The day was fun. Walked around with peter and his mom trying to look for a gift for Cheea. anyway.. he bought him a 2 piece bathing suit and something else... like a cover-up or something. ewan ko dun.

Jeyem should've come kasi Cheea wanted to see her. The rest of the day peter and i went around jumping and humping bookstores looking for Books. I bought Garcia Marquez's Love in the time of Cholera and Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. since i was watching Lolita earlier i thought about reading it.

walk walk walk walk.

then cheea came. she was nice. peter wanted her hair cut. so she did cut her hair. went to bench fix had cheea's hair cut. and then i bought a UP Jacket for me.. Fighting Maroons. Since i don't have someone to spend my enormous Valentine's money... i decided to spend it all for myself. FUCK YOU GIRLS.

walk walk walk walk.

Peter and I and Cheea went to Taeboo classes oh well. there sa town. tas earlier Peter and I watched a shampoo commercial (sunsilk daw) and Mark Meily was the director. kung si quark yun i would've flipped. WAAAAAAAAAH.

walk walk walk walk.

we went to Cable Car and i wasn't served drinks kasi wala akong ID. peter was. so i had coke. and i sipped his drinks when no one was looking. They played billiards and well.. i suck. but i accidentaly beat cheea kasi biglang pumasok yung 9. HURRAH.

walk walk walk.

after that Cheea went home. peter bought his gift for her. and we went home. As if the DVds i borrowed weren't enough i bought The Wedding Singer ( ilovedrewbarrymore ) and Pride and Prejudice ( iloveKeiraKnightley )

Movie reviews... later. i have so much to do.

Anyway... SATURDAY.

practice for Lypo. nothing much happened. we perfected in playing Kamikazee's narda and resolved to playing cute without the e also.. You're so last summer. anyway.. wala si russel so Mico was forced to drum for us. and well.. we sucked. pero that was FUNNNNNN.

Sunday.

woke up early and we went to luneta for a stroll... that wasn't important. i was just camwhoring myself the entire time.. because i loved my jacket and my hair actually looked decent. so there: camwhore.

we were eating in MCdo somewhere along taft. when suddenly a motorcycle got hit by a bus. You don't know how excited i was. it was the first time i saw someone dying. There was sooo much blood. and i was grossed out. but it was fucking brilliant. the adrenaline rush was inside me. of course i felt sorry for the guy who died. Bus drivers are morons. and Motorcycle drivers are daredevil-poseurs. so.. there...

i screamed when i saw it... WOAAH na malakas. tas si mama sigaw. i was looking at the window kasi when it happened. tas yunn. BAM! there was blood everywhere. Now, this is fucking better than the movies.

spent the entire day at my tita's house in mandaluyong. slept. then went back home. and HERE I AM...

...

Here's my Pre-balentayms Post.

i fucking hate this valentines. i have no fucking idea what to fucking doo. well i actually do. I plan on buying cheap wine and a bottle of gin for myself. then im gonna drown myself on it, get drunk and forgot about everything....

SAD SAD SAD SAD SAD.

last valentines was a big mess. last last year was an even bigger one. I AM SO FUCKING GLAD that i won't be involved in anything this year. unless someone agreed to have dinner with me.. Still left me hanging and still never replied to my text. so fuck you bitch.

EMO EMO EMO EMO.

i probably would just spend my Valentine's evening drinking wine and eating pasta. and then watching something like... Lolita or My Date with Drew again... and Cry. and cry.. listen to something Emo.

ERRRRGGG...

wala lang. basta. ang baduy ng post na to!

Fucking the Mall.

2006-02-10T12:00:00.000+08:00

Im off to fucking malls today. actually two malls in particular.

i'll start my day with festival and then walk over to town. which is what i do best. i postponed watching Lolita because it became a bore already... i want some incest sex and all i've seen is the girl's neck and the guy's ass. fucking movie.

oh well... The million dollar question is what am i going to see at the movies. both 3 hour snooze fest today. I am NOT SEEING Fun with dick and Jane... because it's lame and Jim Carrey is so out, since Steve Carrel and Jon Heder is in.

peter should come with cheea and jeyem. but i doubt they're going. peter's busy (as usual), i don't know cheea that well (that's scary if i spend time with her) and jeyem is too fucking emotional to function (don't ask)

it's okay, sanay na akong maging alone.

*that is such a motherfucking emo statement.*

Peter gave me a testimonial today. It's nice because it's what best describes me while im on ATC. you can go look for that in my Freeeendster account. Meanwhile, i created this last night since im soooooo creative. but i didn't get the fonts right. *i am such a loser*

okay... that's nice... if you'll look for the Fun with Dick and Jane poster... then you'd get this picture... it's really funny if you ask me... and i'm basterdizing Peter in a sort of way... NOT in a bad way... It's a good thing basterdizing you, old buddy.

It's cooler to hang out at Town nowadays.... but i'll say later... HURRAH... i therefore shall repeat:

Sanay naman akong mag-isa, eh...

Celebrate the joy of life. MY ASS.

2006-02-05T23:29:00.000+08:00

happy anniversary to me. Since it's february, i am celebrating my one year of blogging. That's right. it's been a year already. i have yet so many people to thanks and make kwento about. lots of apologies to be given and said and well.. that's for my 1 year post. Im just celebrating the whole month....

(im talking to jeyem about how we love God. if there's one guy that you should love. It should be God.)

if you're ever wondering. i got pissed off at thursday. and still at the guys in my dorm. Get this. Im sick. the dorm's so dirty. i haven't cleaned. and they're chatting until 2am. that sucks.

alam mo yung parang wala lang... errr.. ayoko nang magsalita.

...

i spent my entire thursday at peter's place. watched trainspotting. Which he hated because of serious reasons. (sorry peter!) and thumbsucker which he said was gay (sorry again pare!) we made plans of watching walk the line with them (the twins) and he went home agad. i took an advanced exam sa HNF kasi sobrang bad na yung feeling ko. ang taas ng lagnat ko tas i was shivering at peter's place.

so i brought myself a sandwhich from a deli in vega. then went to INF then took the exam. 35 items. small thing. then went back to the dorm and slept. i was feeling awful. dahil to sa ulan lamig init eh...

nagising ako ng 7. kumain. 9 yata nagsidatingan sila tas endless usapan na. Kung ikaw may sakit sa tingin ko mas masaya kung makakatulog ka. eh takte! hindi talaga ako nakatulog eh. pesteng usapan. alam kong maingay ako minsan pero wala naman silang sakit eh.. eh ako meron eh... nakakaurat talaga.

ayoko nang magsalita.

buti nalang ayos lang ako nung umaga. di na ako nakapasok sa Eng2 dahil.... ewan. hnf lab cooked baked mac and popoevers. ayos lang. Socsci 2... trash talk again... went straight home and chilled.

nicole went to my house at about 6 or 7 tas pumunta kami sa kanila with my computer. i called my mom and asked her if i could stay over at nicole's place. ayos lang naman daw. Jeyem and Miggy was there kasi may scenes pa na hindi nagagawa.

wala naman akong ginawa kay nicole. umalis sila jeyem after. pinabalik ko si jeyem kasi wala akong kasama sa house. eh puro babae sila. pag nalaman ni mama baka sabihin kung anuanong ginagawa ko. tsaka ang panget paring tignan.

anyway... we transferred the whole video footage then later edited it. inabot kami ng 12mn sa transferring palang. then spent the entire morning editing. I let them do the editing kasi project nila yun eh... so hayaan na natin sila. jeyem and i helped whenever malabo yung ibang ginagawa nila.

nagusap lang kami ni jeyem the entire evening. tas inubos namin ni kaytee yung candy supply ng bahay nila nicole. parang willy wonka yung bahay nila... Pistachio nuts, Gummy Bears, Jelly Beans, MnM's, Caramel.. shit they have everything. nagluto pa nga kami ni jm ng pancit canton... tas kain pa ako ng kain ng lechon kawali!

they slept at about 4am. tas i was left alone. i burned the videos eh. tas sila nicole natulog. nagdownload ako ng songs at nagpaka-adik. got 13 songs of hawthorne heights. a couple of alanis (which reminded me of pedro) falloutboy and hedwig (missed those songs eh!)

they woke up. had breakfast then went back home. si jeyem ewan ko dun. i borrowed a ton of DVD's from nicole.. SHEEESSH... her dad has a cool collection! i forgot to borrow Raging Bull and Schindler's List nga eh! Her dad has everything! hahaha! not really... if they had A clockwork orange i would've flipped and run screaming in a mad fit around her house. PERO SHEESH.. i got american psycho and the rules of attraction... and Casablanca! and GONE WITH THE WIND! where do they get these? hahaha!

i watched SAVED when i got back home. mom was gone (good thing.. i have this trouble back at home... which i will make kwento later.) REVIEW OF THIS MOVIE (or shall i call it Re-review?)

i lost my copy of this movie in munsci. or someone borrowed it or something. anyway. it's one of the finest Teen movies i've seen in my entire life.

Saved begins with one of my favoritest Beach Boys songs covered by Mandy Moore. God Only Knows (which i will talk more about later.) "Good girl" Mary (Jena Malone) and her domineering best friend, Hilary Faye (Mandy Moore), are starting their senior year at the top of the social food chain at American Eagle Christian High School--that is until Mary's boyfriend tells her that he thinks he may be gay. When Jesus appears to her in a vision, she heeds his message to "do everything she can to help her boyfriend" and, to her horror, she ends up pregnant.

Besides being a comedy teen flick it's also a hidden satire of religion and christian schools. I was once on a catholic school (yeah. i was.) but it wasn't like that. but i do know some people who are like these. the born agains are like this.

i remember when i first watched this i was laughing my ass out nung kumakanta sila sa school assembly with their hands up tas parang sinasapian. tawa lang ako ng tawa. sobrang exage kasi eh. then i realized na ganun pala talaga... oh i am oh so weird.

anyway. the way the story was paced was good. And it does raise some interesting questions about God and Teens... for example while Mary and Hilary Faye was painting the Jesus statue, Roland, Hilary's disabled brother (played by Macaulay Culkin) says to her sister " I still don't think he should be White." then Hilary Faye answers: "Of course he's White!"

the exorcism scene i was laughing at that part. when they thought Mary was acting weird so they exorcised her... then ended up with Mandy Moore throwing a bible at Jena Malone "I AM FILLED WITH CHRIST's LOVE" then Jena answeres "This is not a weapon!"

it's funny kasi you get your typical teen comedy and then you add these weird elements like christian school and it adds up. it's amazing how they kept the story. and the actors were all good. i mean, Mandy Moore was perfect for her role. she's so fucking irritating and funny and stupid yet she's good.

i did love Eva Amurri and Macaulay Culkin's scene when they were talking near the end of the movie. and Eva talks about his disabledness and her wild life. "He gets me, and i get him."

it made me realize that whatever's the problem with someone. basta she gets you. everything's fine.

ohkay.. that's a really nice movie. loved it. and thanks for Nicole for letting me Borrow the DVD! i still love the movie...

...

i spent the entire Saturday sleeping. Mom woke me up at fivepm telling me why i was sleeping the entire afternoon i explained to her na hindi ako nakatulog nung thursday evening. and then friday evening hindi rin... so yeah. she still yelled at me (for other reasons.)

we went to festival. i helped with the groceries. Renren's birthday will be today. so we got lots and lots. and then we ate dinner at sbarros and mickeydeez. then i went off and watched a movie.

...

peter ditched me. we were supposed to watch this. SATURDAY, 9pm screening. oh hell yeah. ako lang nanuod. 9:35 screening sa festival.

i watched the movie because i heard it was good and the actors were great.

Walk the line is of course about Johnny Cash life. so if you don't know Johnny Cash... where have you been boy?! i liked the movie because of the music and the story... the music because Joaquin Pheonix and Reese Witherspoon sang ALL SONGS. and i mean ALL SONGS. and they did a good job actually.

the story is not your average love story. It spans years and screams out infidelities and lots of cheating. (i actually thought of calling it screaming infidelities the movie. wala lang.) Johnny Cash has a wife and three kids. and June Carter has three kids and a husband... so there. but they do love each other...

as the movie tagline went... Love is a Burning Thing. it is a burning thing. and it burns and burns throughout eternity. i actually am amazed at their love story. how it was so strong overcoming drug addiction, divorce, bankruptcy... still they were beside each other on tour, singing songs, playing the guitar.

the movie, in a way, rocked. i was tapping my feet the entire movie because of the great performance scenes. Joaquin got that Johnny Cash holding the guitar like a gun and shooting the audience. and Reese was demure and beautiful as June Carter. And yes, they both deserved the Golden Globe.

but i can't say anything about the academy awards. though competition for them both. but still they pulled out solid performances. brilliant story... but i thought the guy who played elvis was stupid looking. they did get huey lewis and jerry lee. haha. james dean ayos din...

Walk the line is a good movie. and i loved the poster. and the tagline. and reese witherspoon. haha. nice, inspiring yung movie. let's fun, let's dream of big things to come (that's for my band!)

...

So here's the video (i have no idea if this would work.. but hell it's worth a try.)

okay...

...

so im spending my entire Sunday on nothing. Party kanina. Sleep now.

this blog will soon flow away. i feel it's time for me to get back as shinji and quit the facade business. it's getting old (but shinji's eternal) it's time to pass things...

...

For V-day i have no idea. i have this theory na because it's february that's why im acting this way. the whole V-day/Love month is driving me nuts. Again spending my 16th Valentine alone with no one to spend time with.

don't even ask me to remind myself about last year's valentine! oh god no...

anyway.. im planning a major film fest consisting of Titanic, Casablanca and Gone with the wind for V-day. but if i ask someone i might go out. might pa lang.. bahala na!

...

im going back on wednesday to surprise everybody here. Im getting out with peter i hope he never forgets the plan we're having on wednesday!

...

im leaving you with other news...

so for other news?

I GOT BUSTED.

OH YEAH!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EUGENE!

what i saw 2day is that thumbsucker.

2006-02-01T10:18:00.000+08:00

im finishing my report on biology right now. and im bored. this week is a bore. same as last week. the only thing that happened was me being pissed off at cyrus and jed.

honestly. all they do is piss me off. so i did some thinking and i hate them. roar. whatever i hate them. i hate my roomates right now. i feel like sean when they started pissing him off. and in a matter of days i would all slit their throats and bathe in their blood.

that's way exaggerated.

i marved at the idea of punching their faces just to shut the hell them off. but i can't one thing is that they're friends. they're not the best of friends, but they're friends nonetheless. and i can't possibly hurt a friend. basically because i am too nice to do so.

but the thing is that, if friends fuck you off all the time and pinch your nipples. that is fucked up and i never wanted that to happen. i swear to fucking god if they ever made some crude fucked up lame gesture i am gonna punch them so hard they wish that they never met me.

but again, that's an exaggeration.

i just hate them right now. and i need my own little space, reading a book. listening to death cab. maybe because it's VALENTINES that making me cranky and pissed off at the world. since no one is still my valentine. that's fucked up. and what's more fucked up is i kept on DREAMING, yes my friends... DREAMING about last valentine... which is more like a nightmare.... that was a big waste.

that valentine was a big waste. YES.

i still had fun last sunday with my BESTEST OF FRIENDS WHO NEVER PINCHES MY NIPPLES. and i LOVE THEM. YES I DO. and they never talk constantly about DOTA. we have other topics rather than DOTA. and i fucking loathe DOTA. and i never want to hear that word or that ACRONYM ever again. DOTA DOTA DOTA DOTA DOTA DOTA.

let's get to the bottom of this. COMSAT ko si Cyrus. i ended up killing him. told him it was just a game. but NOOOOOOO... they end up pinching my nipples and im still pissed off even he UNFUCKFULLY fucked up apologizing last night. whatever does unfuckfully means... i made that one up...

looks like peter's all that i could talk to right now. haha!

...

we watched saw 2 last monday... and it was a bomb. better than saw 1 but still it has some flaws... being that the characters look stupid when they're scared. but i don't think so.. i think i would do the same choices they made if ever im in that house. of course you can expect a twist. and three more saws in the future.. that is.. IF THEY MADE A GOOD SAW 3 next year...

a minute ago a saw the SCARY MOVIE 4 trailer and im laughing my ass out. sure it's a profitable series and it's also a funny one... they're bringing DATE MOVIE This valentine.. anyway.. they're fucking up War of the worlds, SAW, The Village and the Grudge this time around... of course they're still fucking bush up...

i like the saw part... they're having shaquille o neal and Dr. Phil as the tandem in the parody.. that's an odd couple.. and they're funny... in the trailer i mean... haha.

here's the poster:

...

been watching a lot these days. since i've seen CAPOTE and THUMBSUCKER. Capote really delivered. i really liked Philip Seymour Hoffman's acting and that he really deserved that Golden Globe. Though he's again nominated in the oscars... head to head with Heath Ledger and Joaquin Pheonix... i have to watch Walk the Line this weekend. Remind me that... oh i will...

lots and lots of nominees from the oscars... Brokeback Mountain leads with 8 Nominations. and Capote with Munich is next with i forgot how many nods... oh well.. sure do hope Brokeback Mountain wins... Still unsure about Joaquin Pheonix's acting.. but i guess he's that good. haev to see it.. people also hoping Reese Witherspoon wins.. but there's Felicity Huffman contending against her.. which i think was brilliant in Transamerica.. it all goes down on me watching Walk the Line on friday... and i heard it's good..

...

Finished reading The Informers which brings me now into reading Jarhead... loved the movie and im thinking that reading the book is better. so im reading and loving the book right now... hope that won't end.

...

i'll be under a hiatus until i renovate this site for my FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY! yes! this effing blog is now on it's first year and i love it~ have to create a new layout... of course a special one... and yes.. i have to remake the layout for Lypo's site too...

next week won't have classes on thursday and friday but i have to watch RockElbi. or i think i will... i haven't seen Kjwan and Urbandub live yet eh.. so i have to watch them.. oh yeah Kamikazee too!

...

SO much for Valentines. still haven't found that one. and im too bored to do my homework. still intact with keeping my money to myself and other selfish acts... but im getting there. im also getting used to the thought that i am really alone and all i could turn to is sucking my thumb (more on thumbsucker next post... i have to watch it again.. same with other oscar contenders.)

still in this un-euphoric state. and i feel fine but not happy. I am not Mad but im on the verge of it.. and i still fucknig swear that if they still repose on pinching my nipple and constantly talking about dota. i swear to god i am and i will be mad...

or am i mad right now?

whatever... ohhh they're making a Mr. And Mrs. Smith TV Series... whatever that could be.. also Wes Craven talked about a Red Eye 2 which Cillian Murphy's character is kidnapped by the government so he and Rachel McAdams have to work together to get themselves out of the situation. I loved their chemistry and with the success of the movie i wouldn't be surprised if they make another one... oh yeah... i have to get that one on DVD and watch it again...

....

whatever's the state i am in right now. i still have friends and i love them just as they love me. Lypo's hiatus is over and we're practicing again and making new songs for some other shit.. HURRAH!

gotta goo... almost time...

gay cowboys, stupid cupids and that 20 paces.

2006-01-30T11:23:00.000+08:00

went back from all the hustle and bustle here in elbi last friday. and got bored. i marveled at the thought of finally moving away from here. medyo boring na talaga dito. wala nang magawa. parang nagawa ko na lahat ng first sem. and im getting really really bored sa nutrition.

since i don't want to watch anything. and since little manhattan's not shown anymore. i just decided to get myself some dvd's. i got Golden Globe winners. hahaha! Brokeback Mountain (aka That-Gay-Cowboy-Movie) and Capote and a critically acclaimed one Thumbsucker.

i've seen only Brokeback and i'm too bored to watch the other 2 for no reason at all. but they all look good.

gay cowboys.

critics raved Ang Lee's epic love story. and im glad i watched it before it went out on theatres. i don't know how the hell these pirates got the copy the award giving bodies used to scrutenize the movie. oh well.. as long as it costs 70 pesos only.. im there... i might watch it on the movie again though. walang subtitle and i never understood some parts.

the copy was good though!

here's a brief synopsis:
An epic love story, set against the sweeping landscapes of Wyoming and Texas, that tells the story of two young men--a ranch-hand and a rodeo cowboy--who meet in the summer of 1963 while driving cattle on a mountain range. They unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection, one whose complications, joys and tragedies provide a testament to the endurance and power of love.

from Ang Lee's wide sweeping shots to Heath Ledger's acting as Ennis, the movie was perfect. if you don't care seeing Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal's steamy kissing scenes for a brief period only (and you can be rewarded of Anne Hathaway and Michelle Williams' Boob Shots) then you just might survive the movie. and it's rewarding because it has a beautiful story and a flawless direction.

they're not queer. they have their own families yet they have sex once in a while. yeah, sure it's a scary thought pero if you do love one another parang... okay... that sucks. hahaha. the movie was good though. and it deserved that best picture award from the golden globes. heck, even heath ledger could get that best actor (but phillip seymour hoffman got it... that's why im checking Capote later on!)

Jake Gyllenhaal isn't afraid to play different roles and he really is one of my favoritest actors now! haha! Loved him in Jarhead and in this one!...

...

i got Kamikazee's new CD MAHAROT. and if you ask me why i got it... i wont say because of the song Narda but because of the funniest Cd cover i've seen in years. if you think that's funny well then you can look inside the CD itself and it's hell a lot funnier...

Eula Valdez agreed to do this modelling?! oh god! i adore her pare! she was sooo coool on the photoshoot. roar... i hope i could meet her...

the songs are surprisingly good. i never liked their first album that much but some songs are good. this new album is solid because of Narda and Martyr Nyebera. and they still have the malabo tracks like Sobrang Init and Shoot Dat Bol.

but the album was good... hahaha... funny... nuff said. AYOS TO!

...

i can't reveal anything now from the videoshoot of the MV Kurtina. pero i can tell that it's effing fun to do! and here are pics from the shoot.

and here it is finally! THE LYPO ep ALBUM COVER! i can tell it's good... oh well.. i made it... i loved this SHOT! I REALLY DOOOOOO!!!!!

sana magkasya... more on this kwento later onnn this week!

go go, sago!

2006-01-22T14:01:00.000+08:00

yesterday, we went to where dreams mostly come true...

but before that let me say something about the week first.

to tell you the truth los banos is getting boring already. or is it that i'm so boring right now. i rarely go out. i save all my money. and i stare at the infinite abyss everytime there's something out there. or am i wishing or whatever.

friday i had this god forsaken exam in HNF11. and it's one of the toughest exam ever. oh well. glad that's done. i rewarded myself by admitting myself into another R-18 movie, Jarhead.

i remember when i was just 5. all i could ever go to is GP movies. i couldn't get in PG-7 movies. so i wished to be 7. i became seven and they abolished the PG-7 rule after a few years. so then i hoped to be 13 for PG-13. since they had the PG-13 rule nowadays... all i wanted to become is 18 for me to get into R-18 movies.

but then they abolished the R-18 rule just now. and gave R-13. but you know what. it's fun kasi most of the art flicks are R-18! and i've watched Masahista and Ilusyon now... so that's it SUCKAH! no need for me to turn 18 since i look fugly and old that i actually am accepted to be 18. the perks of being a wierdo.

So yeah, Jarhead (picture later)

if you ask me who's my favorite actor i could give you Robert De Niro or Al Pacino. but then there's Jake Gyllenhaal. He's a brilliant actor if you ask me... i've seen most of his movies but nothing could ever beat Donnie Darko. oh well.. he was really really good here in Jarhead about the marine stuck in the Gulf War.

what separates Jarhead from most WAR MOVIES is the story itself. there's rarely any violence and it's more on the what happens inside a Jarhead's mind. it's more of a Psychological Comedy. It's funny and it's also heartfelt.

yes.. Jake Gyllenhaal was brilliant here. and i can't wait to see him in Brokeback Mountain. Although i felt that there's more to the movie if i read the book (A memoir actually by Anthony Swafford) so im gonna buy it later. They have it on powerbooks, i asked.

...

it occured to me that everytime we go to Enchanted Kingdom, i always end up getting pissed. Here we are. We have 13 free day passes from Exodus. and then there's about 3thousand people inside the Kingdom. So you have to wait hours before you could ride the damn thing.

i told mom na we should just go home and return tomorrow. BUT NOOO... they have to watch pacman. so i was pissed. wala man lang akong nasakyan! mother fucker. what pisses me off more are the people. there are literally hundreds of motherfucking high school students who are either curimao or poser (i am so mean. sorry. but im pissed off that's why)

you get pissed off because of the people. you get pissed off because they ruined your plans of shooting your first music video. you get pissed off because of the lines. and of course you get pissed off because of the line-jumping-curimao's.

the magic stays with you, huh?

here's pictures (these are the times when i actually looked happy because of the picture.)

oh there i was humping the peTREEfied house.

that's mom and my brothers in the ferris wheel.

that's my brother and i. wala lang.

that's me and the trash can.

that's me, wet and hot. and my underpants are soaked.

that's me humping the post. my humps.

and the rialto this year's fucking boring. Hanna Barbera my shit.

...

today we're here watching Manny Pacquiao's Match. OF COURSE HE WON. but i was hoping tha the would loose. but then he was fucked up. he won. First few rounds he got smashed. but he got the last fucking laugh.

so there's another reason for you to be proud. he's a filipino asshole. He's a fucking filipino. and he's a fucking millionaire... YOU KNOW WHAT?! he should fucking pay the fucking debt of the filipino people since he's so fucking RICH! gets?

i finished my POLSCI project outline. that's for the gloria ayoko sayo thing. here's the south-parkish characters i created.

and the golden globes go to...

2006-01-18T10:04:00.000+08:00

okay you can find the whole list of winners somewhere on the internet and i won't bother telling them who they are...

okay what amazes me most about the golden globes is that they're claiming that there's an anti-gay protest and a very political manner about the winners. gay and politics.. that matched...

brokeback won best film and felicity huffman won best actress for playing the transvestite in transamerica (which i thought she had done an amazing job)

walk the line won 3 awards and both of the actors won also (whch i haven't seen yet but i will.)

i have an exam in an hour. wala lang akong magawa... ohh shit... basta basta basta! wala lang...

...edit...

it occured to me na sobrang bilis ko na magbasa ng libro. i started bob ong's book sunday and finished it monday afternoon. suddenly jumped right into reading The Bridges Of Madison County and then instantly finished it yesterday afternoon....

god, i'm running out of books.

i've been actually wanting to read the novel since well.. since i wanted to read another love novel. i think the only one i've read so far was nicholas sparks' a walk to remember (to jive with the movie)

i remember as a kid, i had this idea and facination about movies already. there was a videotape (VHS) of The Bridges of Madison County starring Meryl Streep and Clint Eastwood. i wanted to watch it. I really did since it's a love story and i got interested in the back cover (even though di ko maintindihan and what the hell is a 5 or 4-yearold kid doing in this love story movie) anyway. my mom didn't permit me to watch it...

i remember she telling me that the movie was a "bold" one and i usually avoid watching them since i know there are just naked women there (i remember also while she was watching the piano she told me to stay out of my room)

anyway... i never bothered watching it. but there's still that title and that picture of meryl streep and clint eastwood hugging. that stuck to my brain for no reason at all. oh well. i thought it was nice though.

now i've read the book and i'm ready to buy the movie. haha. so to speak i loved the novel and all that shit. it really is a good book. wala lang. full of prose and other stuff about love. the thing that amazes me that it wasn't dreamy like other novels are. it's a straight to the point love story. not mixing with emotions anymore. the author knows just how the characters would react in a very mature way.

wala lang. whoa..

i gotta get more and read more books if i intend to write someday. i have yet no plans pero bahala na... whatever. i want to write and do stuff. not become a nutritionist. lame.

Who is Augustine? Who is Marlon Villanueva?

2006-01-16T09:52:00.000+08:00

a sad day for some up students.

last night i recieved a text message from karen c about wearing white tomorrow and well i think someone died. little did i know it was someone all right. another hazing victim for some reason. and that's evil.

it was on the news last night and my mom woke me up this morning and told me all about it. and then i was walking the campus this morning and there are people wearing white and has that black ribbon on their shoulders. it was even on the dorm bulletin board.

you could also see the "JUSTICE FOR MARLON VILLANUEVA" stuff sa may office ng perspective. and there's even an APO Killer poster somewhere as my classmate in Econ11 told me.

it was on the papers this morning. and well based on them Marlon Villanueva was a 2004 AgEcon student and got caught up with the initiation rites for APO frat. well he got bad beatings and according to the news he was black and blue all over. It happened saturday morning and the two guys who took him to the hospital was arrested. he was dead of course.

a sad thing is that there are still frats who do this beatings and stuff. which scared me a lot and i finally made a decision on not joining any frat (as if someone recruiting me, that's a good thing!) or any other school organization. kaya eto. orgless org ako.

the thing is that i enjoy my circle of friends. who needs a frat or an org kung marami ka namang kilala. at yung mga kilala mo nag-eexpand pa since we meet many people along the way. so ayos na to...

...

on other news i keep addicting myself to our ep. which is a good one, i bet although i don't know it is my band and that's my opinion! and i really love my band. i should make an ep review for our own ep and expect it to be uber biased. mwahahah...

i love our practice videos by the way... it's so fun to watch. and since there are over 10 thousand rakista who are members of rakista.com we're getting a good way of flaunting our music. hindi ko pa nga lang nauupload yung songs. but i will.. oh you bet i will...

i am now approaching my 1st year of blogging with this blog. and it's been a tedious task this blogging thing... but i am so enjoying myself writing about my escapades. expect something new for the next few years. like me blogging again in tagalog (naisip ko ba't puro english na yung past blogs ko!?)

...

i've read bob ong's new book and i bet this is his best work yet. i loved this book so much. but i can't make a decent review because of the limited time i have.. next time nalang...

i'm jumping to the Bridges of Madison County when i get back to the dorm and do stuff...

they're showing jarhead this weekend and guess wha?! NO CUTS! ayos! although it recieved an R-18 rating, that's good since R-18 movies are back! i love em since i can now watch them because i look old! and no cuts! WAHOOOO!! SIN CITY 2 here we coommmeeeeeee!!!!

i'm busy right now creating a decent fan base for our band. i'm using all the resources just to get our music up and running. and i wish we get decent results too.. i miss playing live and maybe we could get gigs and sell our ep too.. our songs aren't that bad!

oh well.. gotta go!

Moreover, Whatever, Whomever, What are you Ever?

2006-01-15T17:26:00.000+08:00

Now that i am practicing my vocal skills for no reason.

today was a good day to shop for books. WHY YOU MAY ASK!?! well... let's just stick the words ALABANG TOWN CENTER and SALE together then you get the picture. Since the new Mayo album won't be out for a month and the Sugarfree repackaged (im getting it for the videos not the panday song) won't be out till the end of January let's just say that i never waited for it.

i gave the first draft of the edited and unedited copies of the music to nicole earlier when we came to town. she liked it. my dad liked it. and my pinsans liked it. my roomates liked it. im sure our friends will like it. So since everyone's liking it you should buy one when it comes out.

next week will be the VIDEO SHOOT for no particular reason at all. since we're so feeling cool. wahoy. have i told you about me not liking Narnia? oh well...

BEST FRIENDS.

my best friends are seriously increasing. I have Emily, MD, Dbd-Portie, DeeVee. i love my best friends. even though they don't talk back i love using them and being with them. Who needs an ipod if you have MD. who needs big screen tv when you can have Portie on your lap and who needs smoke... well i do, that's why i have Emily.

...

i am fairly excited about the whole recording that music video thing and about the new rakista forum that we have! WAHOOO talaga! i have to focus on somethings first like my exams this week which would be tough. pero kaya yan!

back to the books business. Last night i started reading Brave New World but fell asleep. I bought a book yesterday which was Bob Ong's newest mistake. Today i saw the sale! They're selling old, really good, classic boooks for 9 pesos. and the hardbound ones for 29 pesos. WEEE! i bought The Bridges of Madison County for 29 pesos! imagine that. they're selling that shit in paperback for 315php in powerbooks and i almost bought it. Anyway the real surprise was seeing Bret Easton Ellis' THE INFORMERS being sold for 60-fucking-pesos! SO I FUCKING BOUGHT IT! wahooooooooo! it's a really good copy and not severely damaged like the others. Ellis Books are really old so i could get a sure chance looking for them. I almost bought a 70-pesos copy of The sisterhood of the travelling pants. i want to be gay for a few days. but decided not to buy it....

No new dvd's this week and i now know that raisia wants to steal my dvd collection since she herself has a portable dvd so she could watch dvd's in the libe... WAHOOO TO US! we have PORTIES as best friends... i love my portie.

i almost bought the 40th year anniversary dvd of Mary Poppins for 70 pesos. how fucked up is that. I got tempted at buying the Memoirs of a Geisha on VCD but decided not! BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE IT ON THE BIG SCREEN!

...

back to my vocal cords. i want to sing live again. since that's nice. wala lang. WAHOO! BOOKS! wala lang... new cd's please. can't wait for the new Typecast CD that's coming up! Tiendesitas later! I FINALLY COULD BUY THAT SISIGLAND SHIRT THAt I've been craving ABOUT!

SISIGLAND RULES!

that juday-piolo movie review.

2006-01-14T22:49:00.000+08:00

okay. time to put up that review. that juday-piolo movie review.

saturday we went to the beach. and you know that probably. and the pictures.. well they're really not here. or anywhere else. but i do have great pictures of myself on my friendster account (which is i must admit, slowly fading away.)

oh yeah i partly made kwento about that i think.

sunday, that event. that juday-piolo movie. oh well.

DON'T GIVE UP ON US

after 3 years of not making movies together, not being on the boob tube and not making anything together. well they're back with another joyce bernal movie.

the thing about me is that i don't let (what others call) baduy, cheap, pinoy love stories. i do believe that we are one of the most romantic countries in the entire universe. hence, we make really baduy, cheap, cliche-driven romantic movies.

pinoy love stories are really predictable. they meet, they fight, then they live happily ever after. that's it. but with the recent influences from korean popcorn flicks such as my sassy girl and others well we're trying to be mature and smart nowadays.

Abby (Juday), is a rich, workaholic, self-centered bitch (that's a way to describe her) who's getting ready for his brother's wedding whom she herself planned. But her best friend and bride-to-be (cheska garcia) runs away because she doens't love Abby's brother.

so being the bitch that she is Abby goes to Baguio and Sagada in search for her best friend so his brother's wedding should push through. She meets Vince (that's piolo), a singer at a bar who serves as his guide during their trip. but then they fall in love blah blah blah. She goes back to Alabang, being the bitch that she is, ignores Piolo and then she goes back to Baguio but then Piolo goes back to Manila and then he becomes famous and Judy Ann remained a bitch.

that's a way to sum up the movie.

Don't get the description wrong, it's a nice and simple film and i admired Judy Ann and Piolo's tandem even more because of this movie. Okay, so Judy Ann proved that she can play herself in Till there was you and Piolo proved that he's not gay. but they both proved how their charisma together could just might bring people back into movies.

The scenes are simple and nicely done and acted. They both weren't over acting and you can feel that they're really comfortable with each other. and it did show how beautiful baguio and sagada is (too bad wala yung part na me chongki.) Tawa ako ng tawa dun sa scene sa kulungan and judy ann had to sing "bayan ko" haha. tangina ang korni pero ayos siya.

and oh yeah, this is one of those love stories wherein you won't be feeling bad after you've watch it. baket? kasi alam mong pwedeng mangyari sayo. simple lang. the movie shows na hindi puro fairy tale yung love. though walang sex scene (unlike till there was you) ayos narin because both of the characters showed maturity in the movie.

pero nandun parin yung isip ng pinoy na kailangan pag nag-sex kayo eh mahal niyo ang isa't isa. yeah right.

overall the movie was simple but nicely done. it's good. wow. they started the year right. with MMFF and this. hope this gets the industry. that's 18-million pesos on opening day. ang daming tao nga naman. puno lahat ng judy ann. narnia puno din. oh well.

...

Went back sa elbi that monday. I've been reading Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 and it's nice because i finished the entire novel all on one day. it's really really good. I had to study for Bio 2 exam but it got stalled because of the urge to read Jonathan Safran Foer's Everything is Illuminated.

Raisia told me it was good. so i bought it. mejo interesado naman ako sa novel in the first place. and it's really good. JSF has this style that's so new and so cool that at first you would be confused at the book you're reading pero once you're there you couldn't stop reading. and reading and reading and reading.

okay finished that book on 2 days. i have to re-read it because i have so many questions to answer. i love the epic parts. the ones about love and the sex parts. haha. oh well. sex is everywhere.

i had 2 exams this week so i had to be cooped up inside the dorm. i had dinner with the munsci crew last thursday and played dota until 1am. that's neat. i finished the lypo cd this weekend which is nice since next week we'd be going to create a music video for it.

...

i watched narnia a few hours ago and here's my partly-good partly-bad movie review.

i wasn't that well-acquainted with the novel by C.S. Lewis so i really can't decide if this is a good book-to-movie-adaptation. but from what i've seen it's good.

you all probably know what the novel is all about. so i'll cut the kwento parts. It's a classic novel, i know, and it came a long time long before harry potter and other pieces of shit. oh well. anyway. i liked the whole movie but i found it pretty boring in fact.

i don't want to make a review of this movie. wala lang. part of me tells me that it's good and part of me told me that i should've just watched ako legal wife. but the movie IS GOOD. and the effects WERE GOOD. the kids WERE NICE. and the story IS FAIRLY GOOD. but im only saying that maybe narnia isn't just a world for me. it's too kiddy kiddy although the war scenes are pretty intense for kids.

maybe if i gave time to read all 7 novels (and buy that 815php worth book) maybe i'll have a better view on the movie. but now, it still resides on the okay movie list.

i bought Bob Ong's newest mistake (he calls his books that), STAINLESS LONGANISA the book about writing his books. wow. that's seems nice. anyway it's just 150php and since im a big fan i bought it! WHOOO!! kadarating lang nung copies kanina! glad to be the first again! WAHOO!

still the new mayonnaise and the repackaged sugarfree isn't out. and im craving for weezer. weeee.

...

They're showing Brokeback Mountain (also known as THAT-GAY-COWBOY-MOVIE) here, oh joy! you get a full minute of Anne Hathaway's tits (on the big screen!) and full minute of cowboys making out. i saw the full trailer of the da vinci code before narnia. and the x-men 3 trailer. and the pirates of the carribean 2 trailer.

but i'm excited about the upcoming 9/11 flicks to come about this year. There's the one by oliver stone and the other one (the one im excited about) it's called FLIGHT 93. it's about the flight that was believed fought back.

this is the flight that crashed because the people inside the airplane was believed to avoid it crashing into WTC. i think this is a really good and courageous movie. and i do want to see it on the big screen. i think there's gonna be some good drama. There's a tv documentary about it on National Geographic or Discovery. It's called the Flight that fought back. but i think i'd prefer to see the theatrical version.

so many movies this 2006. and we're just starting. OOHHH can't wait for Memoirs of a Geisha and Brokeback Mountain. nice nice nice.

...

oh yeah, since the whole fucking world is talking about it... i think it's best that i talk about it too.

ANGELINA JOLIE's PREGNANT!

what sarah said

2006-01-08T09:50:00.000+08:00

now that i am platonically addicted to just one song. and that is what sarah said by death cab for cutie (can anyone explain to me what platonically means?)

as i wait for us to leave and me to watch that Juday-Piolo movie which i've been craving for since i knew that they're making one, here i am listening to just one song repeatedly over and over again.

i guess it's just this nice to listen to this song. i love the lyrics, it's so tragic and emotional that i would just want to err.. i don't know.

Death Cab is so emo. there you go. okay so for no reason at all i'm crying thinking of the last line and that "i will follow you into the dark" song. thank you cabal for influencing me.

What Sarah Said is that endless moment of waiting outside the halls of hospitals and waiting for someone to annouce that someone is dead. there you go. and i do believe that death cab made a very good song explaining everything and how it feels to be outside that hall. the tension, the pressure, everything.

What Sarah Said

And it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time
As I stared at my shoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409
And I rationed my breathes as I said to myself that I'd already taken too much today
As each descending peak of the LCD took you a little farther away from me

Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye
It stung like a violent wind that out memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds
But I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose than to have never lain beside at all
And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself

'Cause there's no comfort in the waiting room
Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news
And then the nurse comes round and everyone will lift their heads
But I'm thinking of what Sarah said that "Love is watching someone die"

So who's going to watch you die?..

...

that love is watching someone die got me thinking and it just got me.

love is painful, yeah right it really is. pero for no reason at all. wala lang. haha.

...

you know i can't wait for that Judy Ann-Piolo Movie gorramit! wahhhh! for 3 years pare, there's no juday-piolo movie and now it's here. and i'm ditching Narnia for this shit! I am Ditching Narnia for this shit i repeat that.

it scares me just how far this blog takes me. sobrang scary. ang daming nagbabasa. oh well... the song of the moment is blue moon since it's oh so nice and macoy's voice is oh so soothing. also i was watching Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (that's the first one) on Star Movies this morning. and it fucking amazes me just how Mike Myers looks like Macoy Fundales.

i still believe that Pedicab should be nominated for a Grammy. and Cueshe be thrown out the window. Oh yeahhhhhhh!! which reminds me... we're having show and tell tomorrow for Eng2. We were instructed to bring stuff that pisses us off and show them and tell stuff about them. OHHH... Guess what i'm bringing...

here's a hint:

the great first week and mom surprising me.

2006-01-07T21:29:00.000+08:00

the first week to highlight the new year. the first week to ever go back to college and the first week of whatever.

i had fun this week to actually admit it.

monday, i went out with rio, katrina, kaytee, lelep and jonah including peter and went to see a movie with them. we saw blue moon which is the only dramatic movie in this year's film fest and the obvious choice for Best Picture.

the movie was beautiful indeed. It's a romantic movie, a period epic and a road movie all mashed into one. Manuel Pineda (Eddie Garcia) has 6 months left to live and all he wants to do is look for Corazon (Boots Anson-Roa) and dance with her for the first time. Along with his son (Christopher de Leon) and grandson (Dennis Trillo) they go to a journey from Laog to Baguio to Bicol just to look for Manuel's True Love.

and the most interesting plot detail is that there are 2 Corazons (Jennylyn and Pauleen) which made it even more interesting because you don't know who the hell that Corazon is he looking for.

decent performances came from mark and jennylyn and of course the 3 generations of actors (eddie, christopher and dennis) were perfect. for a period flick it delivers and as a road movie it's surprisingly good.

i also really loved the script (which won a palanca award) i felt the intensity of the movie and the drama that came with it.

...

after the movie we roamed around. si lelep umiiyak for obvious reasons (go figure) kaya wala lang kaming ginawa ni peter kundi manggago.

had to get to pacita and get the lypo cd. bought transamerica dvd and reservior dogs. felt dissapointed for the recorded cd. i have to re-edit it to give it's perfect state.

...

tuesday got stuck at home and all i did was watch dvd's. they went to the doctor and did some stuff.

...

wednesday i went back to los banos of course classes resumed already. brought my bike and biked during my classes. i had fun this week, honestly.

thursday we went out and did stuff. dota actually. jonjie drinked and we played dota. mico interesado sa dota. oh well that's that. we got this group of males to play with us and they lost. Wah. bring it on pare. chamba lang yun...

friday went back here in munti. i bought Pulp Fiction dvd which i grabbed right away when i saw it. watched the DVD. mom announced that we're going to the beach tomorrow. went with her to buy food and then went on blabbering about stuff.

...

mom is so sponteneous. ewan ko ba kung bakit. she just decided that she wanted to go to the beach last night and immediately we bought food for the trip. it wasn't a long trip since she only wanted to go to Cavite. i wanted to go to Subic.

we left at 4:30am. and then we got lost. i slept the entire time we were on the road so i never knew we got lost. i just woke up 7am and we were at the beach already.

the beach was fine. actually we were the only ones there kaya parang we rented the whole place. it's for weddings and stuff so it looked nice.

i never really dipped in the water. i just played with my brothers and made sand traps, sand castles and sand mountains. got sand in my hair, up my ass, in my ears and in my eyes. we left at 11am and then i slept even more and then when i woke up we were there on the new SM after daang Hari. Sm Molino na pala yun.

oh holy shit. thanks to SM Molino i found my newest palahniuk book. CHOKE. immediately i bought it. and they did have this nice copy of diary. i never saw it at first and i planned on buying Trainspotting or Wicked or The Tipping Point or Blink. but then i saw it and just like that i bought it.

haven't read it yet coz i still have everything is illuminated and i have a final chapter for american psycho..

oh my god. american psycho is such an awful thing to read. although its one of the best novels i've read it's that hard to read. i told peter to read a chapter during nasc7 class. he backed out because it was too fucking terrible to read.

so patrick bateman is a psycho. i understand that. but the chapters where he has sex with a prostitute and an escort lady and then ends up killing them, or when he hacked the belly of a dog walking by and then ended up slashing the face of the fag owner, and the most terrible amongst them all when he decided to slit a poor boy's neck while he's rummaging through central park. oh god that's terrible.

though it is a good black comedy pero i don't think some people won't commend the genius that is bret easton ellis. they would be so disgusted by the book. anyway it's nice im down to my last chapter before reading another one...

...

this christmas was my time of the year for movies. having seen 6 out of the 10 film fest entries for this year's film fest and i never stopped buying dvd's i loved this christmas. and i think i've seen 6 films which instantly became my favorites (2 of them already on the list)

1. The Chumscrubber

this is one stunning debut. it has one of the best working cast ever assembled on a movie. and it has a great story about a suburbian town where the parents never really cared about their children. Dean is a lonely boy and when his best friend and next door neighboor Troy commited suicide his life started to end up fucked up.

i liked the whole idea that the parents never cared about their children being drugged up and did nothing they ever thought of. the whole drama. glenn close was at her best, again and that final scene where dean tells her about troy was nice.

the moment: the glenn close - jamie bell conversation

2. Transamerica

Life is a journey, Bring an open mind. The movie tag line got me into buying the dvd actually. Cicboy wanted to watch it on the screen (as if a limited released in the US being shown here.)
Bree Osbourne is living in LA and saving up for a sex change operation. Everything is going fine until one day she recieves a phone call from the New York Juvenile Prison stating that his alleged son is caught in a bust. Her shrink can't allow her to undergo surgery not until she closes her other life.

they called it the most original american comedy of 2005. and i believe it truly is (besides Wedding Crashers and The 40-year old virgin) it also show just how transsexuals live their lives having gender dysphoria.

it's a road movie. and the open mind thing is also needed. the movie is for open minded people and just shows how transsexuals are also human beings and they want to be treated as.

the moment: when bree was pissing sitting down, and then she was shocked exposing his penis to his kid. haha! nice!

3. Reservior Dogs and Pulp Fiction

i got the 2 Quentin Tarentino movie classics and i'm glad i have them. watching them back to back last night gave me one of my best nights. i love both movies and im not letting them go. i now have a name for my son he's QQ Quentin Quark. ohh nice. i have my favorite foreign and local director.

both had great scripts, both was a blast to watch and both got time mixed up and fucked up. and both were just pure genius. yeah i like having the Quentin Quark idea for a son. Oh god hell yeah. hahaha. (nababaliw ako.)

the moment: the multiple shooting between harvey keitel, tim roth the police and joe's son and of course Mr. Blonde's cutting the ear scene. for pulp fiction The dance of Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace. and whenever Samuel L. Jackson monologues Ezekiel 25:17

4. Taxi Driver and Scarface

oh you know those movies that they tell you to watch before you become a guy. well there i've seen it. and if i've seen it when i was 12 (when i wanted to be a man still back them) i never would've understood them. well now i can! and they're great!

that's that. i can't say more. i just love them pare.

the moment: "ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?" for taxi driver and the fall of Tony Montana (the ending) for scarface.

6. Love Actually

the film that made me fucked up this season. Love Actualy is one of the finest romantic comedies i've seen. if you mix Six degrees of separation with Love well you get this. love Actually. well it has a perfect ensemble cast.

the moment: "To me you are perfect" scene with Keira knightley.

...

there you go. 6 of my most important dvd's this christmas.

...

THE METRO MANILA FILM FEST AWARDS NIGHT was a big shock. and i loved it. they gave out the awards to those i never thought of. and it's amazing.

most of the minor awards got to KUTOB and it was 3rd best picture, best actor for marvin agustin (whom i did thought was brilliant as that crazy obesessive guy) and best actress zsazsa padilla. jose manalo as best supporting actor?! wow!

it was the year of the comedies since 3 of the acting awards went to 3 actors from comedies. and who would've thought jose would win best supporting.

oh well. Best Picture was Blue Moon which is great. sad for mulawin whom i thought never got anything, it sucked anyway.

...

we're making a video since nicole's creating that for a project. yey. video producers. wah pare. wah.

in other news. i'm thinking about dating someone. that's big news since i've never really dated anyone for a year i think.

oh well, that's that. tomorrow is a big what for me. what to watch - the Juday-Piolo Don't Give Up On Us or the Chronicles of Narnia...

why did i ask pa ba? Obvious choice pare.

I'm going for Juday-Piolo.

the loneliest new year.

2006-01-01T02:46:00.000+08:00

just how frustrating this new year is to me?

very.

30 mins ago i ended up crying because of some stupid beach boys song which kinda reminded me just how i am right now. very very very fucked up. for one thing my mom's trying to kill me because she cooked lechon kawali, fried chicken, sushi, beef and mushroom and bought a big chocolate mousse cake... so she's really trying to kill me. for good i think.

another thing is that i am so lonely right now and i feel like i have nowhere else to go. i've been chatting with people for hours now just to forget how lonely i am right now. but that's done and they're gone sleeping. still i lie awake. i decided to type it away. i remembered all of the romantic cues in love actually. which actually made me cry. i don't know. it just felt awkward watching that movie in the middle of the loneliest moments of my life. erg. it's so hard when it feels like im alone. or whatever for that matter. i just feel like shit. my brothers are sick so we never went out and celebrated. how can you celebrate when both of your brothers are sick and they have 40+ temperatures. so we just sat and shouted when the new year arrived. now they're all asleep.

for some weird reason. about 30 mins ago after listening to that beach boys song. in random the mp3 player started playing the my sassy girl theme song which made me cry harder. i've been through a lot of pressure right now. and having to see the chumscrubber made me even depressed and pressured with life.

what does the new year have in store for me is my only question right now.

i wish i could stop being lonely and go out again. i wish i could but i think i can't i don't know. i feel so weird right now. like someone's taking over me. and i feel like that someone is gonna succeed in whatever his plans maybe. no this is not a tyler durden situation. i don't know. i really don't know.

2005 had been nice. if 2006 wants to stab me he better do it now than wait for later. last year my birthday sucked. having to find out things that would and could break your heart. and welll...

i've been hoping and praying this year it won't. i've been through many things already. i just want to have another birthday and get this over with.

hopefully i could accomplish finding A clockwork orange and Donnie Darko in dvd. i could find a new love. just to bring back the smiles i never had last year. i just want to stop being lonely and start anew this year.

but it seemed pretty fucked up.

2005: A Year in Review. YAHIHU.

2005-12-31T16:16:00.000+08:00

What a year it was... with just hours before the end of the year 2005 i should make my own year in review since everybody's making their own on their own blogs...

Well what can i say. 2005 was a fine but fucked up year. fine in terms of me getting into a nice college and fucked up in terms of me in love.

issues. issues. and more issues.

i left munsci with so many bad impressions. that's why it's such a relief that i left that school. high school was a blur anyway. it even got worse because of the whole mico-raisia-me thing. but i'm glad that's done.

i almost did not graduate because i was held responsible for most of the attacks for the school. in terms of me ordering the whole batch 05 to wear black (which i did not.) and me making fun of teachers and staff (which i did.)

well i left munsci but the issues started flooding in. well the teachers were talking about my alcoholism, and smoke addiction. rumors started to spread out that i was literally failing all of my college subjects. but rumors are so fucked up. i passed my first sem. whatever. fuck you.

friend-matters.

it's nice to have friends. friendships never last that long though. but you still find ways to make them stay as long as they have to. just like the fights in fight club. well. mico's friendship was ended during that tragic fucked up scenario. meaning stopped being "Friends" with raisia too. meaning lots of people were involved and meaning people had to take sides.

i'm glad that's over. mico and i got back.

managed to get new friends in college (although i never intended to have them) people like den and the others, cole and jin, and nica and my blocmates (even though i never attended bloc meetings.)

i also managed to get closer to the munsci people whom i'm not really got close too. like cyrus and noryeht and melissa and leslie and marius... and i even got reunited with peter masanga. how fun is that.

had roomates whom are nice. jonjie, jed, sean and nicollo. they're all nice and nicollo has this killer addiction with movies. sean is an ass but he's nice. hahaha jed will piss you off but he's a passable friend and roomate.

studies.

i did pass almost all my subjects in my first semester of college. although i got that demented 4 in math. hey! im not the only one.

high school was nice. got all my subjects passed. except for fucking calculus. what an eeeevilll subject. whatever moron.

i did pass UPLB. which was nice. i passed all my college exams which made me prouder than ever and well... now i'm happy living in this crazy mixed up world of the university.

super rockers.

what can i say. i'm a rockstar. i really could say that this year is the year of pinoy rock again. and not just pinoy rock and rock in it's whole package. surely the year for lypoinduction too. we got gigs and even a major one. we finished recording the album but it won't be released until next year.

i attended some pretty tight gigs. the full volume at festival, some gigs in alabang. album signings here and there... oh well that was fun. music still runs wherever in my vains.

bisyo

sigh. it's hard to admit your vices. wether it's drinking every thursday (or any day for a fact) with people. smoking whatever in wherever. playing of dota till your eyes hurt. it's there and 2005 seemed like a year of fucked up conspiracies. or whatever.

biblio-ewan

i've read tons and tons of books this 2005 finally had this genre that i wanted to read. it's called depression litarature. it included literary icons like sylvia plath, jd salinger, ken kesey. contemporary classics like mark haddon, jeffrey eugenides and bret easton elis. and of course... how could resent my addiction to Chuck Palahniuk. oh my... he's the one author i definately admired this 2005.

movies. movies and more movies.

i might've seen about a hundred movies this year. but the really important ones are fight club, king kong, the godfather, seven, pulp fiction, just like heaven, let the love begin... actually i can't think of them right now. i think i've put them in reviews this year. hanapin niyo na lang.

recently i've seen the chumscrubber and 3-iron. definately include them on the top 10. both are clearly in the top 5. wow kasi ang ganda.

the worst movies this year was the ones in the manila film fest. ewww pare.

king kong was a blast. so was batman begins. uhhh. there's just too many movies! A clockwork orange and In the realm of the senses was groundbreaking for me. oh shit what else... before sunrise and sunset. definately KEKA seeing it again in vcd. ohh shit can't think of them.... ARRGGGHHH... there's toooo mannnyyyyyy!

being 16

oh god being 16 was so tough. i had to face college and the whole world that surrounds me. i had the privilage to leave home and it's also a disadvantage. i hated leaving home at the same time i loved it. i dunno why.

i avoided lots of issues and well... made lots of them. i never felt like 16 to tell you the truth. i feel just like what everyone sees me... this 18-something whacked up guy. if i came up to you and told you that i was 16... would you believe me? i guess not.

it's the same reason why i could buy booze and other bad stuff like tickets to R-18 movies. because i don't look like 16. i even don't feel like im 16. i felt like skipping years but it never mattered to me. because even though i don't feel like 16. i felt life treating me the same way as everyone else did.

being 16 never mattered. what mattered is that i am 16 and i was. or whatever. ang labo no?

it was hard to be 16 because you're not really that old but everyone (like your parents) wants you to be mature when you're really not that mature. at this age girls want someone who's not childish when they're the ones being childish. i dunno.

maybe it was so tough to look out for someone who cared for someone like me. because i am just 16. and well... there's so many years to go and i'm really not rushing things. wait till you grow older just like what they say.

i am old. i am 16 years old. (hehe ano to joke?!)

...

Ohhh... 2005 was lame, conceited, unfair, fucked up and fugly. but it never really mattered. because it's over right now. and we're approaching 2006. i guess it's time to leave all the issues of 2005 behind and go towards 2006.

weh ano yan? YAHIHU. tangina ang ganda nung kanta ni jorel.

filmfest, paris, ep, matador, dvd and sickness: what made my christmas.

2005-12-30T01:05:00.000+08:00

well what a christmas it truly is.

first i was pissed off then.. wala lang. im fine right now by the way... somehow death cab for cutie seemed to cure all of my frustrations. thanks francis for the emptythree.

anyhow. my last writing was the really angry one. well yeah i was angry cause of those. my hair really is fucked up. but since my cousins were nice enough they told me it looked good on me... faker. but i love you guys. anyway...

the party was nice. got drunk because of the 12.5% wine + loads of 5.5% beer + shots and shots of 32.5% gran matador. that was nice. and my cousins were nice to pay for me. wahahaha.

that was christmas party with the family. anyway it was fun. i sure do miss elbi...

you may ask how's my hair...

it looks fucked up, but it's doing just fine...

in other news... THE MANILA FUCKING FILMFEST.

i would honestly tell you that i was pretty excited for the filmfest this year... i mean really really hyped up. i was really really really really fucking excited for it... and it appeared to be.

a bunch of crappy movies.

so far i've seen four. four films and i've wasted 440 pesos. not including food and transportation. SHEEESH!

we watched EXODUS 25th of december at atc. well i had high hopes for this one because the trailer looked so good. i guess they finally learned how to use that special effects. so so so so so so the effects were pretty good but they're still shitty. the movie you ask? oh my god it's fucking awful. im so sorry but i had high hopes for this one. i just thought that hey maybe it's good.

they barely had lines. it was full of magic thinga-ma-jiggys. them waving their hands imagining they really had powers. and it looked so stupid to me... i mean really really stupid. bong revilla looked stupid. that effing tide commercial kid looked so stupid. even iya villania for godssakes looked stupid... and jay-r... oh my. don't ask.

BAD MOVIE. sayang Erik Matti pa naman.

next we watched the 7:55pm screening of mulawin the movie. with my brothers and mama and my cousins. well... what can i say.. i guess this one would be good. and it would be definately good. i promise it would be good. for 80 million pesos... my god... who wouldn't make a good film out of that?!

well the movie's even crappier than the tv series. to think i actually expected it to be good. we only sat through the movie because of angel locsin. and the sheer enjoyment of screaming out what the next scene would be. it was predictable, because you would think they just made the tv series into a movie (but it's actually a sequel) and then the effects is fucked up. it's bad...

what's fun was seeing characters instantly appear and dissapear on the scene. You suddenly will see a character from encantadia... and then after Pirena's big help she suddenly skips out of the scene and says "Bahala na kayo... tapos na ako" oh my.. whatta nice movie.

err.. they killed loads and loads of characters. Dennis Trillo and Bianca king never had death scenes but they were pronounced death at the end of the movie. sheesh... even Aguiluz was dead. HAHA! MAJOR SPOILER... but oh don't care he would be ressurected by Iza Calzado... there you go! Don't watch the damn thing.

the next day...

because i really wanted to watch some of the movies. some like shake rattle and roll and kutob... i once again went to town to watch these awful movies.

well... SRR2k5

it was worse than what i had expected.

okay imagine you're standing in line and then you see lelep and then she says you that a horror movie is so funny. well that's bad. i thought. SRR series used to scare me back then... this is in fact the 7th in the series. My favoritest so far is still Manilyn Reynes in that UNDIN episode... that's nice. i was scared to death when Ai ai delas Alas was eaten alive by the Toilet. now that is scary.

oh god. do i have to make kwento about the movie? it's awful. that's what you needed to know. the colours on the last episode was nice though... the LIhim episode.. nice colors.

oh yeah i watched kutob after that... and well... to tell you the truth i liked this movie. but not really really like. it was nice though. i like the whole Psychotic aspect and the killing. who would've thought the people at MTRCB would allow a killer killing a pregnant woman. diba parang bad yun? PG-13 lang yung movie.

oh yeah you do get to see alessandra de rossi being stabbed. and bing loyzaga stabbed. and ryan agoncillo's heart offered to rica... and tyler durden-ish people... and psychotic people. stalkers and fucked up people. wat a nice movie.

...

if you would like something nice to watch. you should watch the movies i make in the movies game. here's an example.. although i can't upload the videos themselves.. they're too fucked up ewan ko kung bakit.. anyway.. here are clips from my masterpiece... KING KONG LOVES YOU: a romantic emo-ish movie.

What a krayzily good movie!

...

DVD frenzy was also there. Wednesday we had our practice. and we hacked out on dvd's. i bought trainspotting, seven, love actually and fever pitch. eugene bought havoc and the paris hilton sex tape. and francis bought a couple of art flicks and also bought trainspotting.

yesterday we had DOTA FEVER. 6 hours straight of DOTA. supposed to record the EP but then... we had to move it until this morning.

woke up real early this morning and went to pacita for the recording.

we had practice for 2 hours then recorded for another 2. FINALLY THE EP IS DONE! recording was fun. though we wanted to cut each other's throat whenever we did something wrong it was still fun as hell. We recorded 12 and 1/2 songs. and at this time i could say that it was good.

this is just the unedited we're talking about. of course there are major flaws kasi we're just starting. pero it's okay i think. the edited would be much better i think. hahaha. it should be...

anyway...

a little while ago i was watching love actually.

and i loved it and actually cried. i've been putting back to when am i actually buying this movie. i've been seeing it in different stores and wanted to buy it. pero i had the guts to buy it 2 days ago. i watched it kanina kasi wala nang tao.

anyway. for me it's the perfect holiday movie to watch. i loved the movie... cried like hell. wahhh... i'll watch it again.

i felt like there was missing. love is actually all around us. pero parang wala lang. ang lungkot ng pasko. parang.... maderpaker. tangina. walang kwenta pag walang chuva. ewan ko. pero hmm.. bahala na si batman.

roarrrrrrrrrrrr....

my fucking christmas

2005-12-24T20:25:00.000+08:00

so far i hate christmas.

this might be the worst christmas ever.

MY HAIR IS FUCKING GONE.
MY COMPUTER IS FUCKING SCREWED.
AND I HAVE NO FUCKING GIFTS!

i might as well get drunk later at the party.

i will get drunk. i got the wine in the fridge. i want to dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i hate this christmas... if only GOD could bring my hair back...

Oh JOY! What a nice christmas!

2005-12-23T17:14:00.000+08:00

what a joy it truly is.

last night while i was doing my usual stuff in the internet... well you know what that is... it has the letters p and o and dot dot dot in it... joke lang.

my fucking computer passed out. it suddenly blacked out and chickened out on everything i ever ever ever ever ever wanted. so i couldn't update things. but the anger is just too much so i decided to blog it all off...

my computer is fucked up again. for the nth time i am so pissed off with my computer. i suspect that it's the power supply again. cheap old fuck. and my avr's fucking things. Why couldn't philippines get a decent current flow! you need an avr just to regulate the current then there it goes! THE AVR's here suck like asses fucking fucking fucking nice.

wah wah wah wah wah wah... now i should spend my money fixing it all again because i have to do stuff with it... i was on the peak of uploading stuff for the lypo site. roarr... we won't go recording until next week. oh hell hell hell...

wow. it's the 24th tomorrow would you just look at that. that is way too shocking. parang wala lang. i can't feel christmas. 2 of our neighboors.. well they're not our neighboors anymore. the one got evicted and the other one well, they're having a blast with all the snow in the US. well... they were the really close neighboors we had. and it's fucking awfull that we're the only ones with christmas lights around the street. well because the electricity is too high these days... fuck again.

it's the 24th tomorrow and we have the usual family thing. good thing there's 2 empty houses. they won't bother with all the noise that we create. of course my family is crazy and wild and well... you know. and that's fun fun fun fun.

i bought no gifts this year. like i have the money. mom kept borrowing the money and then returning it to me the next day.

wednesday cici boy went over to our house and we created songs for the recording. we got 3 new songs done and i loved loved loved loved loved MARLA... it's the song i wrote and it's always making me cry. can't wait for it to be recorded. oh yeah.. i forgot the lyrics... but it's based on that last scene from Fight Club wherein tyler and marla are standing on top of the world... and they're looking at this big big big mayhem on the streets. well you get the picture. it's such a nice song.

yesterday we had this practice. and well.. it's fun fun fun. i love the studio. and well we did well because we finally finished THANKFUL which is a nice song. and we can't wait to record the EP/LP or whatever the fuck it is.

istef called this morning which woke me up.. she asked about our gig. well i missed her for a fact because i haven't been talking to her or sarah which made me miss them more. i'm glad she called. but i was too sleepy to react well to her call. oh fuck you shinji.

i was hacking myself right now into watching Dvd's. i discovered this great place where to buy Dvd's right outside the village. they had these really great hard-to-find movies. Well they have Reservoir Dogs stored for me. i bought scarface the other day and watched it last night.

they said that if you haven't seen this yet.. well you're not a fucking guy. hahaha. so fuck you~ i've seen it already and the godfather series. i loved scarface just as everyone did. i wasn't eager to hear all those FUCKs and bad words. but hell the movie is awesome. even michelle pfiefer did well on that movie although her role is just.. small.

i heard there's this game coming up alternating the ending to what if scarface lived. well it's nice. or whatever. Al Pacino dropped voicing Michael Corleone for the godfather game for this one.

i'm having doubts whether Tony Montana is gay. hahaha... he killed Manny in the end and then he loved him in that GAY-ish way.. hahaha. Al Pacino is cooll.. wayyy cool to be gay.

...

i got bored with watching March of the Penguins because it was chinese for a fact. so while i was boiling an egg i decided to go out and buy another dvd. i'm glad i went out i now have the Taxi Driver special edition dvd.

i managed to watch this on cable a few months ago but forgot to finish it. oh well... i've been hunting for the DVD for months and now i have it! oh yeah! loved robert de niro. and this film just blows me away. managed to watch it a few hours ago. and.. wow... it's still in my head.

jodie foster was hot in this one. hahaha!

...

i dunno what the fuck i would do without my computer. santa please bring back my computer to life... that would be a nice christmas gift. and well... that canon miniDV camera... and a new nokia phone would do... while you're at it... a new computer would be nice.

AND HELL YEAH! buy Lypoinduction's EP if ever we push recording through.

the busiest weekend. whatever moron.

2005-12-20T23:29:00.000+08:00

i remembered jed with the whatever moron thing that nicole taught me....

oh well... my last blog being sometime that week where i was in elbi doing stuff and doing my beeswax. well now school was over. oh yeah. it was wednesday that i last blogged. sorry for the fucking thing that i do here. not updating and stuff.

the evil and demented lypo site was keeping me occupied. which means less support for my blog. my one true blog. and now... i have another blog to manage. my project in polsci. oh my evil demented life.

i've been uploading and uploading for days and days for the site content for the lypo site. and i must say it's one of the most fucking complete band site that you could ever go to... i swear. you won't be bored with the contents now that i've been uploading even the lamest things that the band do. i swear to god... it's one of the most comprehensive band sites there is... and i don't understand what comprehensive means. oh yeah. so shoot me. fucker.

let's do the stuff:

Thursday, i decided to go home for no reason at all. i felt so alone... yes if ever i stay for my lab class that friday i swear to god i would rot in los banos. so i waited all right until 5pm just for cyrus and mico to arrive. what do they give me in return. oh they left me to ride the bus alone while they would ride on the jeep together. FUCK YOU.

the thing i've been stressing the whole week was cyrus, mico and the other guys leaving me whatever place there is. they left me on that pedicab gig. which made me cry... monday, i told cyrus and peter to wait for me while i buy pancit canton. when i finished buying pancit canton oh my! they already rode the jeep and left me! FRIDAY cy left me twice. i was rotting in the dorm room and he didn't even told me. and yes he left me to ride the bus alone that night.

if there's one thing i never liked was riding the bus at night. sure i've been there. but i wasn't keen on the idea. i sat behind the bus driver. para pag naholdup ako.. ituturo ko yung bus driver at sasabihin kong wala akong pera.

on the way to alabang our bus got held back by the stupid highway enforcers. ang tanga tanga hindi marunong mag manage ng traffic. got at alabang at exactly 8:30pm. since i promised myself i would watch king kong tonight and buy clothes tomorrow. there you go...

i caught the 9:30 screening of that movie. and wow. wow wow wow.

king kong + peter jackson = wow.

wala naman akong masabi since almost all of the critics loved it. ano ba namang masasabi ko. wow nalang. oh yeah. i wanted to say that watching king kong was one of the best 3 hours of my life. there you go.

riding the jeep home was even scarier. imagine 1 in the morning and your riding the jeep from alabang to your house. wowowowow... iscurry. oh well. i got home in one piece. though there are effing gays eyeing me on the way home. scary. scarier than kong.

friday was that munsci livewire gig. whatever that is. i went to festi with mico... to buy stuff. i bought a jacket. from human. which means no more money for me. and a shirt... and even less money.

the thing is cyrus and mico left me again. there you go. i went to artwork to look for shirts. i went back to the foodcourt pero wala na sila... nagpunta na pala silang town so yun. umuwi nalang ako. sniff sniff.

i slept most of the afternoon and what's left i did stuff. then went to munsci. got used to people looking at me because they do not know who the fuck that guy with the long hair. and when they approach you they mess up your hair and tell you that it's too long. yeah. go fuck yourselves. you great effing imbeciles.

oh how i loved munsci that night. sarcasm kills, you know that right?

it was that evening. and there are 9 bands competing. of course we're guest bands right now. and peter was there. and everyone else. we played last which kinda pissed me off because most of the people already left.

i am most pissed off with apple and the others who left. yeah im pissed off at apple for not watching us. i won't be expecting her to any of our effing gigs or whatever there is because she preferred to eat a motherfucking cake from the pascal people. i hope you all rot in cake heaven.

ef you.

angst. teen angst. it's nice.

anyway we played nice. the band's complete and we got to play our songs. chuvahan and kurtina and mixtape. it was nice. i loved that night.

after the event we asked ourselves if we should push through our xmas party. since there wasn't anybody coming. and the place wasn't decided yet. we got tired of it and went home. peter drove raisia and us home. we stopped by nicole's house and drove some more.

then we got off because peter's parents called. so we had to go home and stay there. i got home late.

saturday was another practice day because... for that soapdish gig. of course we need to get prepared. i went to elbi that afternoon to get what's left of my stuff. and then went straight to mcdo for our practice stuff whatever.

the pad was closed. nicole and kaytee was with us. so we went to major 7th and the place was effing awesome! i loved the place. we had our best practice ever. then made plans for the recording of our EP. or indie album whatever there is.

anyway. excited about the recording. before 29th there would be a lypo ep! YEHEY! the album title is also planned. it would be 20 paces. but since wala pa yung 20 paces na song.. tentative palang yun.

sunday i went to do stuff with mom. she took me to greenhills but we never bought anything. just boxes for gifts. oh you go to greenhills to buy boxes. what a day. i went to mandaluyong at my tita's house to watch myx. that's nice. you go to someone's house just to watch myx.

so in the context of that. my sunday was a big blur and it was so useless... and what the fuck is context?

monday was that day. i can't say it. it was such a momentous day for the band. since it was one of our MAJOR gigs. whatever that means. thanks to nicole and kaytee and the whole soapdish crew it was a nice day. i loved monday. i really loved monday.

i got the american psycho book! yes yes yes! now i have no money left.

and oh yeah... i watched Cinema paradiso and cried like a fucking baby. it's now my favorite movie. sniff sniff... i love cinema paradiso. i love it i love it. im watching it again later... and tomorrow. OF COUSE I STILL LOVE FIGHT CLUB.

oh look manok.

2005-12-14T14:42:00.000+08:00

welcome to another lame title.

you know how those things get lamer and lamer and lamer and lamer by the minute.

right now im reading sylvia plath's the bell jar. the copy which i found for only 40 pesos. and i am so greatful. the only regret that i had is that i read it after i've read elizabeth wurtzel's prozac nation. which is just like the same. but prozac nation is way inferior to plath's best work.

mariah carey is intoxicating. oh well.. that's one thing...

i have only a hundred pesos left on my wallet. good thing is that they're sending me money. more more more more money. listening to coheed and cambria makes me angry and agitated. and it's nice too. listening to hale (yes, i still listen to hale) is effing effing hard to do. i cry once again everytime i hear broken sonnet. and some stupid fuck would go enter the room and ruin the momentous falling of my tears.

oh yeah. marius moved in our room. and since he made a border of our tables. pasista na tawag namin sa kanya. so we decided to piss him off last night by putting labels on his stuff. "UPUAN MO AKO. I WANT TO KISS YOUR ASS." or "KAMA" or "PILLOW" or "PADLOCK" or "MINI-TOWEL" just for fun.

last night we also decided to burn the floor. meaning we used all our alcohol (ethyl not beer or whatever) and made marks on the floor. we made a satanic pentagram. and some other shit like a letter C and some other fucked up sick thing or whatever.

i would want a rakista account. just for the forums and stuff. yes i would do that next week. the thing is im really really really so so so so excited with playing in our gigs. i want to play now. i want to sing our songs and do stuff. and whatever else. i would want to sell our CD's in Tower Recto and sing and play with the band. and whatever whatever.

we're getting this huge support from kaytee and nicole. they're going to our practice on saturday. and i don't think i could do well on that practice since the night before we're having this christmas party at karen's place. meaning wasted. meaning hang over. meaning bangag.

why is the coheed and cambria site cannot be seen?!

praise the lord god almighty! they're releasing an unrated, uncut dvd of sin city with chock-full of special features from quentin and rodriguez. oh my god. hope they sell it here. thank you thank you lord! im saving for it so i can buy the origg (wink wink) here in the philippines. i hope it's out here this week. please let it be out. i beg you people. OUT NOW! oh yeah. sell it for 550 pesos if you please. just like charlie and the chocolate factory.

i am also craving for the 3-disc DVD of Titanic. this one im not buying orig. since the original costs 990. and it's not that movie that i would want to watch all over again. just one screening with all the extended scenes and that "JACK!" "ROSE!" dialogue.. and of course i want to cry so hard it could burn my eyes.

i couldn't decide what i want this christmas. i want to have a new dv camera. please daddy? since the vhs-c camera is fucked up. i cannot create my movies. my short but "GOOD" whatever you call it movies.

is anyone still selling the cuidad album? im so sorry that i never bought the orig one. and all my cuidad mp3's are gone. i so so love monica and dessiebell and of course make it slow. they're one of my favorite-st bands.

are we a baduy band? i guess we are.... well that's a good thing.

oh well... post with you tomorrow. i guess i have to get to my 2nd class. and study for that HNF11 exam. how's the econ11 exam you ask?! well. i fucked it up. but i think i could pass. always think postively they say.

oh hoo wee... my title's are getting senseless.

2005-12-13T18:02:00.000+08:00

don't you notice that when i blog my titles are usually has sense or interconnected to the blog topic itself? well now that i can't think of any effing thing or any effing topic... or effing this or that... (consider this blog's title effing)

well. that's that.

wow in a few months well... happy anniversary to my blog. this is now my longest blog. wala parin akong political blog. procastinater. whatever. whenever. well im here in an internet cafe that has the best keyboards ever that's why im typing this really fast (plus, i have no money left so i'll only be here in an hour)

this is scary because the guy in the desk is singing suddenly... please stop now...

another thing that's why i haven't updated because i was too busy creating the lypoinduction site which can be located by clickin here the site is nice for me.. and it's getting the right hits. and we're so corny. oh yes we are..

anyway... last saturday i finished the site right after the band practice. we took so many pictures which can also be located on the site. anyway. the practice went well because we were complete. lahat kami nandun. ang saya-saya. we played well and the songs we played were great. ang lupet ng kurtina for me. ang lupet talaga. oh well.. we should play it sometime. i love my band.

sunday i went to this party and spent 30 mins there and then i watched ANG PAGDADALAGA NI MAXIMO OLIVEROS in the nearest SM Mall (now they're showing art flicks. effing SM)

here's a movie that i am so proud of. it's great and it's heartfelt. Just by seeing the movie made me fall in love again. of course maxi is gay. but for the moviegoers it never occured to me that he is gay. why? because of love. that's love no bounderies or whatsoever.

loved the movie because it made sense. it made sense to everything that's happening to our country right now. it made sense because it's about love and it made sense because it showed the truth to what happens when you grow up.

Maxi may be young and gay but s/he knows the difference between things. His family maybe cellphone snatchers but he knows what bad and good means. and the best thing is he knows how falling in love hurts.

we could all be Maximo Oliveroses for that fact. the truth in the movie is so real and.. well.. true.

and it's funny too. really funny. but heartfelt. it talked about the importance of families, friendship and love. it showed too many things that you never knew existed. i loved the movie. it's nice.

and the beauty pagent scene is just effing funny. and the ending... really a tearjerker. thanks to the writer of magnifico and the producers of tanging yaman here's another film to boost the movie industry.

did i mention that it's a contender for next year's Sundance? oh yeah...

...

i felt so emo-ish this week for no reason at all. which reminded me of last friday's incident.

i was at festival and we went to shopwise to leave our stuff there. and well i waited for them on the first floor. wait wait wait wait wait wait wait. and then they texted me. pedicab daw sa 2nd floor. when i got there. it was done.

you know... i cried and left them. i hated the fact that i waited for them and i never saw the only band im longing to see live. my favoritest band as of now. good thing i had money. i bought Mariah Carey's Emancipation of Mimi and Coheed and Cambria's Good Apollo... well. i have no money left but im happy.

all because of leaving me and pedicab. sniff...

...

Listening to Coheed's album is nice. Listening to Mariah's new album is really good.

oh well. this is what i've become. whatever now.

i went on studying about biology on monday only to find out that the exam had been postponed until next year... oh you conniving stupid ass lame fucker.

then i have exams on ECON11 tomorrow not to mention HNF11 on thursday. and im not studying.

...

sunday after the party we went to tiendesitas. which was nice. we ate nachos and tokwa on sticks. then listened to the band playing bread and rolling stones. and then i bought this really cool emily the strange cigarette storage thingy. and this matchstick lighter which was neat. and now i have no money left. oh yeah i had no money last friday. but i had money on saturday and wasted them all on sunday. NOW I HAVE NO MONEY.

i now i have so many bestfriends. MY MD player, MY DV camera, Tyler Durden the fish, and Emily the cigarette storage thinggy. I am truly blessed.

i am really excited about the stuff about playing this friday. but feeling like shit about the soapdish. oh well. it's fun fun fun to play.

if we're that good we might continue... of course we should also consider what raisia said on her blog:

"Oi lypoinduction!!! Did I spell it right? You guys... :) Hope you don't go down the cueshe or join the club path... or whatever corny band's path, or into the hands of cruel reviewers. Haha! Way ta goooooo"

just for the something something. corny na kami... reviewers.. oh god no. we're not that big. as long as our friends (like you) like us.. then that's fine... as it was said on the pussycat dolls song:

"So don't cha worry about People hanging around They ain't bringing us down"

so don't cha whatever whatever. cueshe path.. oh my.. god forbid if that happens. i might as well don't play rather than go to that cueshe path... or whatever corny band's path... now that's the way to go!

oh well... i might as well kill myself.

oh wait.. i finished reading DIARY. oh man it's soooooooooo good. but Fight Club is still my favorite. then survivor then Diary then lullaby. lullaby is good.. but i have to rank it right?!

chuck is still the god. oh shit... gotta borrow Cabal's American Psycho VCD!

Yes... It's still raining.

2005-12-08T10:01:00.000+08:00

Yes... it's still raining.

and yes i went to last night's Mass Destruction Concert for no reason at all... would you look at that.

It's effing cold in here and i am always freaking wet and i want this effing rain to stop.

For some reason at all the gig for the soapdish is getting vaguer and vaguer. for now i just want to play something just to play songs wala lang. got inspired to play when nicole said na sa mayric's daw. man! That's where great bands are born my friends! but anyplace would do... i just want to play.

now blogger is so slow in this cafe... effyou. anyway at least the guy's playing "We Belong Together" which made my day. i don't feel like going to class... wala lang. but i have to. i like polsci for some weird and anagnostic whatever matter.

wala naman talagang magawa these past few days. Uyy... tomorrow is Cyrus' birthday! how fun fun fun! anyway later tonight i am planning to square and dotaing... last tuesday when i posted i beat peter and cyrus and placed 2nd to laurence.. my oh my im getting good at this... i am a pusher remember...

...

Narnia is getting some good reviews and here's something to be proud of pinoy filmmakers:

"Sigaw gains Remake Deal"

anyway... Yam Laranas is now talking to the people who remade THE GRUDGE and THE RING. This is so big because they loved the movie... oh my god this is so huge for pinoy movies to be remade... and by big big big big companies who would surely attatch huge names. i wouldn't mind seeing other people in place of angel and richard... it's huge that we're being remade.. i hope this would give more support for pinoy movies.

This is shocking. Apparently The Rock has 6 movies in store for 2006. and one of those movies is the live-action adaptation of get this... JOHNNY BRAVO! oh my freaking god!? are they serious! although i do see the rock as Johnny bravo... but him blond?! err... anyway.. rest assured that would be so silly that it's gonna be so funny. hope he does the thing he does when Johnny's dancing.. can't wait to see that one.

...

i am starting my political blog this weekend for the POLSCI1 project. and i am finishing the lypoinduction site for the hurried gigskeds. para lang may nakalagay. wahehhehe...

oh well.. i lab blogging and i shan't stop doing this.

i just hope the rain fades away.

Get in your Pajamas

2005-12-06T21:21:00.000+08:00

how was my week you ask?!

wala lang. ordered chaos.

just when i was thought i was out they pulled me back in.

wala lang. i came out of the dorm today 8:41 pm in my heaven sent pajamas, a sando and my only penshoppe jacket. and people are staring. that's because the power was cut out in the freakin dorm. boredom.

i never took a bath this morning. and it's been raining since yesterday. NON STOP. oh god this is so fucked up. anyway... i was about to sleep then CLICK! no more lights again. fuck fuckety fuck fuck.

so here i am in this computer shop with cyrus and peter (dota-ing) and me in my pajamas.

the thing is that i've been reading Survivor by the master Chuck Palahniuk and i was so inspired to go ahead and kill myself and be part of that Creedish Death Cult even though they all killed themselves. Oh yeah, it occured to me to do research about the Creedish Death Cult. i think it's real.. wait lang.

oh hell it's fake. see how Chuck makes it so real to me? just like fight club of course this is based on some other death cult there is. and he made this cool arrangement for the book. The book's chapters and page numbers are put into reverse order. For example, the book begins with Chapter 47 on page 289 and ends with Chapter 1 on page 1.

i still wish there's a Creedish Death Cult and how i wish that i could be Tender Branson and how i wish someone like Fertility Hollis would come into my life just because she thinks im a lover of his dead brother.

Oh Chuck, take me away from here.

But i am so happy with things right now. UPDATES on the gig. Well... we're now playing at Mayric's which is according to FHM is "Where Great Bands Start" which made me inspired. and Mico and we're endlessly talking about it. This just gives us a reason to play really well...

I hope we could be a GREAT band someday... well with things happening right now... i think we're on that path to righteousness.

if ever i have twin boys... i would name them TYLER and TENDER and if girls SERENITY and SALVATION. nice chuck palahniuk-y names noh?! oh well... i love you...

Finally someone i know is digging fight club the novel not the film. Raisia. oh well that's just so damn idiotic for me to think about her again in that way. i just fall in love with people again once i know they like that same shit-hole lame-ass facade-my-ass piece of shit. it's in the warm center of my heart.

but im not implying that i would just grab her from Mico... hell no. that is not a Chuck Palahniuk-y thing to do.... not at all...

oh well more on this later... Dota is calling me... anyway im not addicted to it...

PS: i noticed today that the goverment changed the government warning: From Cigarettes are Addictive to Cigarretes Kills. now that's comforting.

2005-12-04T22:57:00.000+08:00

What's up with the title? i do not know. Long time no blog mga pare. roar.. busy busy busy busy fucking busy. bored bored bored bored. 3am walang kwentang umaga. napagalitan pa ako wala naman akong ginagawa. anyway.. later on that one.

i can barely remember last week. walang kwenta deins ako nakapagblog kasi eh. anyway.. let us recall..

i can remember that i went to all of my classes. and i did stuff. and oh yes.. we had that 3-day weekend from saturday to monday. no classes because gloria wanted to fuck up the system again. ano pa nga ba.. blah-blah. what's important was the weekend.

wala lang akong ginawa the whole friday. went back here sa munti after class with cyrus, jonah, marius, leslie and mico. and well went around the mall. and then i went home and stare at the fissures in the wall. saturday was a different day. i slept the entire day and was awake the entire night. i made plans to watch any movie: Excorcism of Emily Rose or Prime. i never went out until 7pm.

everyone went out to go to Mandaluyong again. i decided not to come and told them i wanted to watch that movie. so they let me. wala naman silang magagawa eh.. wala din akong magagawa pag sumama ako sa kanila. same thing.. ewan. ayon. good thing jeyem texted me so i went out with them and ferdie. and other people were there too.

punta kaming town after a few minutes sa festi. then checked for the movie sked kaso tapos na. we went around and they ate at greenwich while i did stuff then went back to festival for the 10pm screening. wala lang.

Excorcism of Emily Rose

as published it was "BASED ON A TRUE STORY" yeah right whatever. It was based on a true story but the truth was stretched to great lengths. Annalisse became Emily Rose and Germany became USA. The movie was okay and was called as the first courtroom drama/horror movie. I liked the courtroom drama elements and the horror elements were just right for the movie.

On the context the movie was okay. But the courtroom drama was too much and the horror stuff were only limited. The acting was good. The girl who played Emily Rose did well especially on the scene inside the church and at times during the excorcism. Tom Wilkinson and Laura Linney had that believable Lawyer-Client relationship.

The part where the priest said that Emily should be a saint and everything… well that was too much for the movie. I did sympathize with that scene with the Virgin Mary. Maybe that's why the movie was premiered here with the help of the Catholic's Bishop Conference of the Philippines. It was too preachy for a horror movie but it did well… I guess.

The movie ended at about 12am. They picked me up at the mall. Then I went back here at the house.

Sunday was okay. We did went out because my brothers wanted to play and do stuff and I have nothing to do at the mall.. so I watched a movie. Hooray! Another movie! This time I watched Prime.

Prime

Ben Younger the guy who wrote and directed Boiler Room came back with a movie way different from Boiler Room. It was the Meryl Streep, Uma Thurman Starrer Prime.

A romantic comedy with a certain reality that happens today. Rafi (Uma Thurman) is 37 and got recently divorced from her 9 year marriage. She regularly consults Lisa Metzger (Meryl Streep) her psychiatrist about her problems.

When Rafi falls in love with Dave (Brian Greenberg) an artist, Rafi goes back on track. She consults Lisa, her therapist and tells her intimate details about their relationship. Things go awry when Lisa discovers that the guy Rafi is in love with is his 23-year old Jewish Son.

I haven't seen any good romantic comedies recently since Just Like Heaven still hadn't opened in Philippine Cinemas. But I was thankful that they released Prime here. It's one of the best romantic comedies of the year. Seeing Uma Thurman just made the whole movie alright. Especially when Meryl Streep and Brian Greenberg shares screentime with her.

The situations are accurate and the characters are believable. The movie shows just what love is really about. No matter how old or what you do, it's love that prevails. The movie has a lot of comical moments. There's a scene in which Rafi was talking to Lisa and Lisa already knows that Rafi is talking about his son. Rafi goes “His Penis… oh my god… It's so beautiful. I just want to knit it a little hat” and seeing Meryl Streep's reactions was all fucked up.

Jon Abrahams made a good support for Brian Greenberg. He had his moment when he threw a pie in the face of a girl he recently broke up with. Now, that is fucking original and one of the best pie-in-your-face scenes ever.

It did had some flaws. I noticed that in the trailer the microphones were showing and I thought they edited it in the movie. But the microphones were still there in about 3 scenes. That is annoying. I loved the ending but it was too sad. Bittersweet na. I nearly cried at the end of the effing movie. It was good though.

Monday, we went out again because mom had to get the stuff that dad sent. We went to Tito Francris' Office in Ortigas to get the package. I had new shoes and a wallet. How nice! Hahaha! Loved the shoes pero limited lang yung clothes ko na pwedeng bagayan. Oh well… I was happy for the wallet, thanks Lola!

Anyway we went to Megamall and walked around, I bought Ultraelectromagneticjam, the tribute album for the Eraserheads. I bought it right away since I knew it would be awesome! We went to Festival afterwards because we got bored at Megamall. I wanted to watch Chicken Little so we did watch chicken Little.

Man, the cinemas are getting expensive. 120 for Emily Rose and 100 for Chicken Little. And that's for the regular cinema! I can't blame people for opting for a pirated VCD. Anyway my brothers treated me again, they always do when I accompany them for movies. Sheesh, alright mom gave them the money.

Chicken Little

The movie sucked. And Disney should beg for Pixar to return to them. I couldn't believe the reviews when they got out. A Disney movie that sucked?! Of course they did get those reviews from Treasure Island and Brother Bear and Home On The Range… but this is Disney's first CGI Animated Movie! Surely, this wouldn't suck right?! Wrong. I should've believed the Critics and not watched this movie.

It was terrible. The scenes were boring and chicken little was really annoying. Same goes with Abby the ugly duckling. The characters I loved were the ones who weren't talking like Fish and Kirby. Even the townspeople, they're funny. Not chicken little.

He was really annoying. Roar. I mean come on I loved the teaser trailer wherein he's dancing on the idiotic song with those stupid dance moves. But let's face it. The movie never revealed anything or it didn't have any moral values. You would think that this is just a CGI version of Steven Speilberg's War of the Worlds. But it's way way way way way far from War of the Worlds.

Ang labo ko galit na alit ako sa chicken little. Wala naman kasing kwenta eh. Oh well.

What I did love was the visuals. They even incorporated the cinematography and that's hard to do in animation. Oh well… that's what's good. The movie was horrible. But oh well… my brothers liked it. Who am I to judge.

Let's just hope they do Narnia right.

After the movie Peter texted me and told me that he was inside the cinema with ate pau. Sabi ko naman wag ito panuorin nila eh. They should've watched Prime instead. Oh well peter thought the movie sucked too. He did bring his Dog inside the theater. Papa Bear, the dog.

There goes my 3-day weekend movie marathon. Every day one movie.

I went back to Los Banos Tuesday morning and went straight to my classes. It was just a regular day. Nothing special. I forgot some of the answers for my HNF11 quiz. We made plans to watch tomorrow's Arrest Gloria concert. Well… that was it… I think.

Wednesday, I overslept and forgot to go to my Eng 2 class. And even Eco11 both of which my favorite subjects. I went to all my classes. And got bored at some. My last class was the 4-7 Bio2 lab. I got hyped up because we get to dissect frogs and immobilize cockroaches. It was fun because all of my classmates were girls. You know girls. They scream and ask for help. Fun. Hahaha.

They screamed and screamed and I was with my lab partner we pithed the frog and cut the skin and observed the effing frog. Then we did stuff and there.. we ended it. My classmates on the other hand tortured their frogs by cutting the hearts, pithing the eyes, puncturing the lungs, and scattering the eggs. They even measured the intestines of the frog. Sheesh… to think they were screaming their lungs out a few moments ago.

After class I waited for Peter and talked to Krissy. One of my groupmates from last sem's bio1 lab class. Thanks for the talk and the French fries by the way. Andrew talked to me too. Hahaha! Went out with peter. On the way met up with Leslie with her nice (I mean nice…) friend Carla. They were going to the Concert. By this time we decided not to and got to bored. But then cyrus had plans with his LTS class so we had to wait for him. So we decided to go to the concert.

We got there 7pm and it started before 9pm. Imagine that! Ate dinner, footlong sandwich, thanks peter and leslie for the food and drinks! You guys rock… roar. Met up with Laurence, Biboy, Castro, Mico and Cyrus. Watched the concert together.

The concert was nice. Had a nice rock acts. I only know a few and they were the last ones to play. I just want to be with the people. Fight for the arresting of Gloria. It was nice but it really wasn't' like the time I was at edsa tres.

The performances were amazing, Traumaligno, Kwatro Beinte and Blazing Bulalakaws were the bands I digged. Others were boring. But I think the highlight of the night Belonged to Radioactive, Agaw Agimat, Dong Abay and of course… The Brockas.

The Brockas were amazing. I loved their performance especially when Adonis Brocka came out with only a towel wrapped around his waist and Akira Brocka came out in that hideous Gloria Devil Mask. They had the best songs that night. Especially the PUTANGINA PUTANGINA part. Tangina astig talaga.

Sadly, it was their first and final performance at UPLB since they offended the people so much especially when they offended the Frats and Orgs. “Putangina niyo lahat! MASUNOG ANG MGA FRAT! MASUNOG ANG MGA ORG! MASUNOG ANG MGA PUTANGINANG SORRORITY!”

Dong Abay played at exactly 12am. With his classic Banal na Aso, Santong Kabayo and Trapo and other few songs im not familiar with. The mosh pit started with Agaw Agimat's performance of Let's Go Underground and when they gave out posters to the people. But the most awaited was radioactive sago's performance. They started out with the obvious choice of Track: “Hello, Hello” then their hit ASTRO incorporated Cueshe's Stay which got the fuck out of the audience and their classic GUSTO KO NG BABOY.

The wuds played after radioactive but we got tired and went back home. 1:30 na nung mga oras na yun. I managed to go to my first class that morning. HNF11. and then went around. Did the routine for nothing at all. And then that night we went out and ate dinner then played DOTA for 4 hours. Went back to the dorms at 1:30 in the morning and woke up 6:58 in the morning, Friday. Which means im too late for my Eng 2 class. I rushed outside without taking a bath or brushing my teeth. I was running from New Dorm to humanities building. I had a 2 hour break from 8am-10am anyway. I'll take a bath after Eng 2 class.

I went to my 10am HNF11 Lab Class which was fun. We tested the coloration and pigmentation of certain vegetables. Then went to my SocSci2 class at 1pm. Prof wasn't there so I went to hum to meet up with peter and the guys. Went to a joyride to Forestry with peter's car. And then went home.

We made a stop to metropolis since Cyrus wanted to buy shirts and I went with them. There wasn't any typecast shirts available so they went home instead and I went to festival to watch Just Like Heaven since I've been meaning to watch this.

Just Like Heaven.

The movie was great. Elizabeth (Reese Witherspoon) was a hard working doctor aiming for the slot for attending physician. “You're lucky, all you have to worry about is work” says one of her co-workers. She's been working too hard.

On the way to her sister's house for a blind date she encounters an accident. Fast Forward and David (Mark Ruffalo) is a sad and troubled man looking for a furnished apartment in San Francisco. He found one but when an apparition started to appear asking him to leave the house he consults an occult specialist (Jon Header…. Yes that guy from Napoleon Dynamite) and said that the ghost (Elizabeth) is still alive.

It occurred to them that Elizabeth is in a coma and they must find a way before they pull the plug on Elizabeth's life line.

Our generation's version for Sleeping Beauty was mixed with My Sassy Girl. Romantic Comedies today are funny and exciting to watch at the same time. Reese and Mark had that chemistry and Jon Heder was great as that eccentric occult bookstore owner. The movie had its funny moments. But the ending was the highlight. And when you discover that certain Twist to the movie, you'll know why you watched this movie. It could be corny at times but hey! It's a love story… what are you expecting?!

I went back home afterwards. Slept late. Saturday morning cici boy went to my house to make compositions for the political song requested for us by kuya menard. Made one song and made arrangements for the Soapdish Gig.

Oh yes… we have a gig finally. And we're really working hard for it to be okay. The date wasn't set yet but we're playing with Soapdish and other bands it's for the Soapdish Christmas party. Thanks for Nicole and Kaytee for giving us the guts to play. Oh well, we're still fucked up.

We opted to play Mixtape, Last Time, Chuvahan, Kurtina and Thankful for the gig. It was okay. Nothing special. 1pm we went to san pedro for the band practice. Bjork was closed so our last resort was The Pad somewhere in san pedro. Man I hated that place. Ang init tas hindi nakatono yung instruments. Which caused a major fuck-up for our practice. Walang matinong na-practice.

After the practice we went to Festival and did stuff. It was Jonah's birthday and she's mighty old… kidding just 17. Kaytee was there, and Dave and Bry and everyone else. Hehehe. Saya-saya. We got pictures but I have no copy for the pictures since mom picked me up before the pictures went out.

I woke up Sunday and everyone was gone. Things like this happen. It's because I answer to most questions while I am sleeping. This morning mom asked me If I would want to come with them to go in mandaluyong again to get some gas for the car. And I unconsciously answered no. but I forgot that I answered because I was sleeptalking again. I also sleepwalk most of the times. So there I woke up and everyone was gone. Scary stuff happening to me.. but oh well…

I am currently addicting myself to Brand New's Mixtape since we're playing that on the gigs. I loved the song and it's nice. Also The Ultraelectromagneticjam album was amazing. Probably the best if not one of the best albums that came out 2005. It's amazing having all those artists contribute their tracks for the Eheads.

The Eheads is a classic band. Hands down they maybe is the best band here in the Philippines. But they got separated and well.. their legacy still continues until today. Powerful yung tracks sa Ultraelectromagnetic jam. Every track there's something to it. I loved Orange and Lemons' Rendition of Huwag Kang Matakot and the piano-acoustic Huwag Mo Nang Itanong by MYMP. But the best track of them all was the Rakista united Track Para Sa Masa. Ebe Dancel's final belting of the SA LAHAT NG MASA line was amazing. Loved the album.

I am so playing The Movies. The game is amazing. Same goes with KING KONG. A fully cinematic experience within the game. I never liked FPS in PS2. but this one truly delivers.

I am surprised that Aeon Flux maybe the worst reviewed movie of 2005. Getting a D- in yahoo movies?! I was expecting this movie to be a bombshell especially with Charlize Theron in that sexy leather-clad outfit. Damn… the movie is downright ugly daw… oh well.. I have to find out.

If there's anything that I hate it's controversy. Apparently the Chinese are appalled because zhang zi yi and gong li are playing Japanese characters in Memoirs of a Geisha and the japs are appalled because Zhang Zi Yi and Gong Li are playing Japanese Characters in Memoirs of a Geisha. I have to admit I was shocked with Marshall's decision of the artists playing but I've seen clips and I know by heart the novel that's why I do believe that Gong Li and Zhang Zi Yi are perfect for the role. I just want to see the movie and I do hope it delivers despite that shared opening playdate for Narnia. We know who's the obvious winner.

I shall return next week and I promise to give out a new blog ( for my POLSCI1 project ) and the official lypoinduction website. The lypo site is now online but there are some few missing pieces. And I haven't got a redirection page. It's still hosted by blogspot. Roar.

Nobody knows what's in store for me this week. But there's this huge Mass Destruction Concert on Wednesday and probably another DOTAdik week coming up. I just hope I could save enough cash for the printing of Lypo shirts.
this post is dull.. i'll edit it tomorrow!

let's get aww...

2005-11-25T08:49:00.000+08:00

it's the end of the week and yes... the week was orayt.

for a second i thought that all of my subjects were a bunch fucking hard ass subjects. i was wrong. i enjoyed most of them especially eng2 and polsci1. ang sarap magaral ng mga bagay kung saan ka inclined. eng2 about writing. so no problem about that and polsci about reimagining the philippine politics. wow fun.

thursday nights are now spent in the dorm because cyrus needs to study for Friday math quizzes. so last night i stayed at the dorm and drank stuff. finally i have a fish. a blue fighting fish named Tyler Durden. he's fine. i love my fish and i talk to him a lot. wala lang.. don't call me a fish brain.

wala lang akong magawa this week. i went to all my classes. wala lang. it's fine. dinner with friends is also fun. we have a new friend by the way. Jasper, the bisexual friend of leslie. wala kasi xang masyadong kilala dito sa place so sabi namin why not join us in dinner. yun nga lang maaga kaming umalis kagabi kaya hindi kami maxadong nagusap-usap.

...

they are releasing marebito in the us. so lucky for them. i heard that horror flick rocked. how i wish they would get the guts to release saw2 and wolf creek here. wala lang... i heard kick ass daw yun.

i saw 2 clips of memoirs of a geisha earlier and i do believe that it is oscar worthy. the two one-minute clips were amazing and the acting was superb based on what i've seen. The first one being Sayuri's training and the other one Hatsumomo's anguish thoughts about Sayuri being the one picked to be adopted by mother. Galing ni Gong Li. perfect as Hatsumomo. those furious eyes. ayos na ayos. i really can't wait to see the flick.

also opening this weekend is the movie adaptation of the hit broadway musical RENT. i was lucky to catch the RENT play earlier and i am so fucking excited about the movie. Rosario Dawnson is the only actress that was in the movie and all of the other actors were on the cast of the original staging of the play. anyhow the Season of Love trailer first hit the internet and it was good and now you get La Vie Boheme and Out Tonight Music videos. Rosario's voice is good actually. it's nice. anyway...

they should open The Chumscrubber here. i heard it's good.. but if not... oh well i have to wait until the DVD comes out...

...

i have lab class to go to and yet i am bored. wala lang. i seem to be spending more and more every week. arg. wala na akong pera. the long weekend is up... three days of no school. boring... walang kwentang Gloria yan... minove yung holiday. sa wedensday meron pa namang malawakang Arrest Gloria Concert dito sa Los banos. kung sa wednesday sana walang pasok... e di sana makakanuod ako ng arrest gloria concert. kaso hindi... hanggang alas-7 ako ng gabi every wednesday.. Help me Lord.

wala lang. astig yung Arrest Gloria Concert... xempre nandito yung Radioactive Sago Project, The Brockas, The Wuds, Dong Abay, Cynthia Alexander.. basta ang daming indie artists na gustong palayasin ang punyetang yan. Ayos!

nakita ko na din yung lineup para sa FEB FAIR. wow! ang gaganda ng mga banda! Pedicab, Sugarfree, Hale, Bamboo, Urbandub, Stonefree... the list goes endless... OnL at Junior Kilat pa... excited na ako sa BANGAS na astig na concert na febfair na ito.. ay oo nga pala panira sa listahan si SAM MILBY at CUESHE... mga lintek yan...

...

ano kayang bagong laro sa PS2? wala na akong magawa gusto kong patayin lahat ng Sims character ko!

wala lang... ahh! there you gooo! The Aeon Flux PS2 game version! yes! i gotta have it... ahhh.. nice ratings... gotta have it... later later later...

anyway... i have to go to class.. see you guys when i see you.... oh yeah.. Who's that MR. E on the tagboard? details pleeaseee...

hooo wooo... kung wala ka.

2005-11-21T15:53:00.000+08:00

ang haba ng nguso ni champ.

i just went out buying my taco and then the lady asked me if i could watch tv for a while, while she is making my tacos. surprise, surprise! Kung wala ka is #1 right now in that evil, tormented and demented MYX daily top 10.

comments?

the video of course sucked. shot somewhere here in laguna. calamba yata. anyway. the most important shot i think was champ's face. and oh yeah.. his nguso.. na sadyang mahaba.

im just so sorry if i am offending hale-ers. i for myself am a hale-er but i do not think that they should release videos if it offers nothing but champ's face and does not carry the message of the song.

the first shot was the one related to the video. Natapos na ang lahat nandito parin ako. of course champ was the only one there. anyway. repeated shot of Omnie does not help in the outcome of the video. i just think they made the video with the story of the song.

and oh yeah... it is so trying to be emo. the song was emo and all.. pero it never made any sense that the video was emo at all... i think if they made champ cry.. that would be everything and the video would be every bit as good. anyway... the video is kinda okay... but then... roar.

i think the best emo video still belongs to Dashboard Confessional's Sceraming Infidelities. Rest assured if you've seen it.. it's good. and it is i think one of the emo-est videos. every shot is begging you to cry. With Chris Carrabba's melancholic eyes and the situations imposed in the video.

If you've seen it, it might seem plain. but i think the awkward silences of the scenes mixed with the song itself made it great. A girl leaving her keys behind. Flashbacks of their happy moments together. Chris' expressive eyes. it tells everything.

just seeing the couple go back to their videos and that empty apartment tells everything. that their love was over all because of some guy or girl or whoever he could be. the video is again begging you to cry and feel the pain.

and seeing chris helpless and just looking at his girlfriend leaving all their memories behind... oh godd... this video is a classic. (i can't cry, im in a computer shop for god's sake!)

there's a shot there that chris is standing in front of the girl. brief but it's so emotional. the girl looking at her feeling dissapointed at what they've become. it's roar...

...

i haven't seen the UNA video but they told me it sucked. and i am gonna believe them.

...

i had spent so much in handouts and those godforsaken syllabus that professors give us. i feel tired but i have the whole week to tackle. im buying my fighting fish later on with cyrus (cy and peter are playing DOTA here in the computer shop) and i would name that fish Tyler Durden. what else!

i am excited for my new pet. i've settled the aquarium already in the dorm and everything is set up. anyway... i want a goodnight sleep. after dinner i might go back to the dorm and do nothing. well we're gonna watch Let the love begin which triggers the gay-guys inside of all of us. I also bought sigaw. i left my All my Life vcd back at home... i was looking forward to watching it... but oh well...

love pinoy movies. yes you gotta love it. December 25 is fast approaching meaning i have a whole bunch of movies to look forward to. the thing is... there isn't any good dramas that i think is competing for this year's film festival. they now have special-effects movies that would be big but doesn't have that much story.

it is good. oh well...

Harry Potter grossed 101million dollars in the US only. and 180+million dollars worldwide. Number 1 in 19 countries and is the fourth best opening weekend gross ever. behind Spiderman, Star Wars episode 3 and Shrek 2. i still think that moviegoers would continue to support Harry Potter movies and they know when to watch. The anticipation is amazing when it comes to these films.

I think Narnia would do better than Harry Potter but im still keeping my fingers crossed. I feel bad for Memoirs of a Geisha opening with the same date as the Narnia movie. obviously Narnia would win... but Oscar-wise and drama-wise i think Memoirs would do good. especially that the trailer is amazing.

...

oh well... this is so long already... i miss people especially nicole and jeyem and kaytee and everybody. oh well... nicole's coming here in los banos. i think. i just hope they would come sooner para wala pa maxado akong ginagawa. i feel okay studying my lessons and i think my goal right now is that bright and shiny UNO. oh well... time to reach that goal...

HAPPY 101th post to me.

im making new friends right now. that's a good sign. i'm talking to my classmates again rather than showing my silent side. oh well... hahaha.. that's good.

Wasted at One Hundred

2005-11-20T00:06:00.000+08:00

This is officially my 100th post. and thanks to you and everybody else.

last time i posted i felt really sad and fucked up and everything. i got back to los banos last sunday and i felt relieved. i arrived at about 8pm at los banos. and then went to square with cyrus and karen and leslie. the others still weren't there. peter came and we all ate dinner.

of course the no-rice policy took effect. doner lang yata kinain ko this night. the rest marami na eh. pero no rice parin... boo me.

anyway. so we went back sa dorm and arranged my stuff. i had to haul my stuff from the first floor up to the 2nd to the other room kasi nga lumipat na ako sa 214. at about 11 we finished doing it and we went to bed.

Monday, November 14

monday was a big hassle. i still wasn't registered and i partly took all my classes. Eng2 teacher didn't arrive. the rest of the day i was registering and finding professors and going to classes just to prerog. i managed to get Biology 2 in the middle of the afternoon. it was a 4-7pm class. but i accepted it with glee... finally...

Eco11 was fucking hard to register. i had to go with nicollo just to find a class. i went back to CEM to re-asses my schedule and copied the wrong schedule instead. Professors were still missing and it fucked me up.

I went to the Bio2 lecture since i had it pre-rogged already. so yun. the professor is i think, gay. Mr. Duka. or Ms. or whatever. After that i went to Humanities for my SocSci2 Class. but he never came either. I just spent the whole day looking for Eco11 classes to register.

After the day was done. i was dripping with sweat and was too fucked up to do something. i went to square to look for Peter and Cyrus. saw them at trace and we all went out and eat. after that we went to Leslie's place and crashed it. finally the sem was started.

Tuesday, November 15

i woke up late. 6:38 and my first class was 7am. how fucked up was that. anyway i managed to get there on time and thank god... after that HNF11 class i went around CEM again looking for damn profs to pre-rog me. luckily, i went to Mr. Endriga's office and he quickly enlisted me! THANK HEAVENS!

i went to his class at 10-11. thank god. he was nice and it was fun during his class. dami kong kilala na classmates. after that i went to humanities to get my POLSCI2 class. Mr. Brillantes was nice and felix was one of my classmates. he was also my seatmate and now my groupmate. haha. tangina. oh well.

i had free time at 1pm i was given the chance to pick either NASC7 or NASC2. i picked NASC7 because it was easier and earlier. so there i went with peter sa AnSci and the professor enlisted me right away after class. Thank heavens! Kumpleto na subjects ko! yeah baybeh!

We went again to square and ate and had lots of fun. i think we hung aroung leslie's place again.

Wednesday, November 16

today was the showing of harry potter and the goblet of fire. i wasn't allowed to absent anymore and since i wasn't registered yet. After my ENG2 class i went around the campus and gave my form26 and 5 to the College Sec. after that i went to my ECO11 lecture class and i almost fell asleep. After that class i went back to CHE to get my forms and went straight to OUR for them to assess my fees. then i went to the admin building and paid for my tuition and went back to OUR to get my classcards.

i dropped the student's copy of my Form26 and i panicked to death. thank god the girl from the Admin Building ripped it off and kept it in her desk. PHEW! i got my classcards and finally i was registered.

You don't know how happy i was at that moment.

i went to my POLSCI class again and did nothing. slept i think. and then had 2 hours break so i went back to the dorm. did stuff and then went to my BIO2 lab class. which by the way was filled with girls. 15 as a matter of fact. and i was the only guy. tell me just how fucked up i am right now.

imagine 15 girls. probably smart asses. and i the only guy, would probably be typecasted as the dumb, lazy ass rebellious piece of shit. it might or might not be true. time will tell. i think i would have much fun at my BIO2 class because of the dissecting part. and they would just scream and throw their hands off the air.

i managed to get out of class earlier than expected. since a room full of girls (even my lab instructor was a girl) was waaay scarier than i expected. They weren't that nice either. Mean Girls as a matter of fact. roar.

i went with Cyrus, Aleli, Laurence (who still have problems registering), and Mico. aleli and laurence went away and Cy and Mico and I walked from LB to Rob just to look for DBD's since we had so much fun watching Till There was you last night.

we managed to find nothing. but we did go to this Cool garage sale before Rob and at the 2nd floor of the Thrift shop nearby was fillled with Books! i never went to the 2nd floor so imagine how surprised i was when i got there. BOOOKS BOOkS BOOKS!

we went back and ate at square. made tambay at Leslie's again. and went back and slept.

Thursday, November 17

oh my god. thursday. fuck.

i went to all my classes and enjoyed my natsci7 class. god that class was freakin' easy. anyway. after class i went back to the dorm and slept for 3 hours. and then i went out. oh my god. tonight was so...

tangina sobrang wasted ako. dapat di talaga ako iinom. pero napainom eh. una sizzlers muna kami para kumain yung mga babae at nagvideoke ako... tas yun inom kami sa square. ang daming beer eh. senxa dami kong nainom. mga 12 siguro yun lasing na ako. i must admit. nahilo ako kasi pupunta kami ni peter kila den tas babalik sa table. hilong hilo ako. sobra. tas yun. ang daming tao.

it happened.

nasuka ako sa table. tas tumakbo pa sila palayo. yung mga tanginang yun. iniwan akong magisa. pero ayos lang. naintindihan ko ang shock. ako din na shock at sobrang hiyang-hiya ako. hello, LB SQUARE. ang daming tao. ako nagsuka. we paid for the beer and we all went away.

don't ask about something more. that's that. ayoko na ngang isulat eh.. pero what the fuck...

Friday, November 18

I got to all my classes on time. even though the hang-over was killing me so bad... i was so fucked up the night before. pero i remembered every little detail. roar. anyway. my HNF11 lab class was fun. we got to cook stuff and whatever.

SOCSCI2 my individual project was blogging about POLITICS. that's easy... DAHERR. hahaha. Writing and Blogging is in my vains. Our group project was TV POlitical AD. HEll yeah! that is fucking wayyy easy... Filmmaking is also in my vains. Hahaha!

Went back to the dorm and waited for Cyrus. then peter gave us a ride and mico was scared shitless. went back to alabang with mico and cyrus and jonah. that was the funnest bus ride ever. xempre i wasn't alone anymore.

we went to festival and fucked the munscians the hell off. and then went home. oh yeah i bought All My life and Sigaw BCD! hahaha!

Saturday, November 19.

Excited little fucker was I.

Finally after Months and a YEar of waiting it's finally Here. Harry Potter 4. Hell yeah! Went calling and made plans with them. the Guys. Jeyem, Mico and Kaisel. yung girls malay ko kung nasaan. Pero town kami manunuod. 10am usapan sa Town.

i got there first tas pumila na ako. tickets don't go on sale for an hour so long line to. Managed to get tickets kasi they got there na. Lahat kami nandun na. ayos talaga! we got good seats! REALLY GOOD SEATS!

The movie was fucking awesome. Critics are calling it the best among the filmed harry potter movies. And i have to agree. This is the most flawless and easily understood harry flick ever.

The Pacing was amazing. Somehow the writers and the director knew what part to take out without ever affecting the story. the know what to cut short like The SPEW. Rita Skeeter. but i felt dissapointed when the made the Maze part short. Somehow i wanted to see the Sphinx and everything.

The Actors were good. Along with the roles everyone matured nicely. And the jokes were so funny. Rupert Grint's Performance was bloody brilliant. Same goes with Harry and Hermione but i think Ron did his Job well. Ralph Finnes did an amazing job at being Lord Voldemort. he was freaking scary and his anger was real.

The Special Effects was spectacular. from the slithering animated snake to the huge fire-breathing dragons the effects definately was astounding and amazing. It was flawless.

damn... i heard they also digitized the pimples. The same technique was used at Desperate Housewives just to get those unwanted blemishes off the teeners' faces. hahaha!

What i loved about the movie was it's pacing. I thought you couldn't fit that book in one movie. Like first planned the 2-part movie seemed fucked up. I was glad that they made Goblet of Fire into one great movie. Everything was perfect. The pacing was really amazing. Ang galing talaga. seemed like you never cared for the lost parts and partly because they would seem unimportant. they also added aditional scenes like the one Ron was being guided by the twins to look for a date for the Yule Ball and stuff.

i just felt sorry there wasn't any house-elves. i think the SPEW would be important in the future especially with Kreacher around. fleur and viktor seemed unimportant. Pero they showed some talent in acting. i would want to see more Fleur in the future. Book 6 perhaps... although they never showed charlie in this movie. he's important in the 6th.

Great movie and i hope the fifth one would rule and be darker than this little baby!

...

After the movie we went around.

Kaisel looks like that guy from SWITCHFOOT. i think this guy's pinoy too. tangina pinagbiyak na bunga. kamukang kamuka ni kaisel. and francis cabal looks like Neville Longbottom.

i bought Urbandub's New album called Embrace. They finally embraced the whole Emo scene. for their songs are waaayyyy emotional. There's this song i like the lyrics were nice. it's Called Endless, A Silent Whisper.

Endless, A Silent Whisper
Urbandub

The night belongs to us
We're caught in a world of our own
We cling to the hope it would change for us
Is it in vain? is it too late?
Why did it have to be you than I?
I heard the news today.

Is this the beginning of our last dance?
Once around the floor, can we do it again?
I feel the thrill from words we say...
I love you.

Embrace so much tighter
This could be our last together
Heaven sheds tears for the wounded hearts
Our forever has been torn apart

Our vast religions
Won't help us answer
What was pre-destined for us to have
Since long ago.
It's hopeless.

The world, it turns with us
Hold me in closer, don't let go of me
Now we close our eyes and let go to the night
The night we feel Alive.

Here's another one i liked about breaking up with someone. and wanting to go back immediately.
Reveal the Remedy
Urbandub

The separation is killing me
You say i shoud've thought that
Before i did what i have done
So easier to put the blame on you
I shoud've looked inside of me
But it's all in vain as i try to explain
She looks away...

We could've been more
Can we ever have these feelings again?
We should've been more
Maybe in time we'll realize that maybe
that fate reveals the remedies
Making it feel like it will be like the first time.

Still the vision on my mind
Cause now i realize it's
So damn hard to give you up
No way out of this hole.

Can we ever have us back again?
Let's not start and put the blame part away
Can you honestly say
You can see me with another one?
Another one, another chance with you.
I want more, I want more, I want more.

Regretting it now
Can fate reveal to me?
The questions to why?
Reveal the remedy.

Could've been more.
Should've been more.
Maybe in our time we'll realize maybe
That fate reveals the remedies
Making it feel like it will be the first time
Just like the first time.

The whole album has nice lyrics and riffs. From The First of Summer talking about fresh summer love where everything is free. To When Heroes Die talking about our modern heroes shouting out what happens to them when they disappear. Would their courage be still recognized? or whatever. A city of sleeping hearts a really emotional song about loss and loneliness and the final song The End of Something is really great.

wow. probably the best writing gabby alipe gave us. They're now signed with EMI since that would increase their chances in reaching their international audience. No tagalog songs on this one. God how i wished they made one. Gabby is such a talented songwriter. imagine how he could translate their lyrics in tagalog. Deep and melancholic pare! tagos puso sa tae ni champ. oh well... urbandub is urbandub. can't change that!

...

Also bought that aquarium for the dorm. finally have no more money left...

...

Finally the hundreth post of my blog. I felt so relieved that this blog survived it all. If i were to summarize this blog... i would say... Love. Heartache. Pain. Emo. Diet. Studies. Elbi. Fun. Wasted. Movies. and Books. there.

it was fun writing a hundred post and sharing my life with others. lots of pain inflicted and stories shared. i would like to thank the people who take some time to look and read and tag. and the readers and whoever you are reading to this.

nicole, kaisel, jeyem, kaytee, karen c. and others whom i know who reads this. oiy yeah! yung mga teachers ko sa high school na naghahanap ng chismis! salamat din! uhmm... basta everyone who's taking their time and reading my shit.

100 posts was tough. parang ang daming nangyari at na-compress sa 100 posts. kaya siguro natutuwa akong mag-blog. ang sarap mag keep ng memories. Pictures and the real things that happened. Whenever i want to look back i could just read it and feel a lot better. I remember all the times that happened and with the help of my blog i could keep it with me forever.

Im printing this one day maybe next week. really preoccupied with a lot of stuff. i need to study more in order to write more. when i started this blog i made a promise to write everything. and i'm glad i did. it was fun writing all of these stuff. and i can't imagine how much fun i would spend reading it and looking back....

salamat lang talaga sa mga taong nakasama ko. sa lahat salamat. sa mga moments natin. Thanks to all! you rock! you you you you you you and you! salamat salamat! in a few months anniversary naman ice-celebrate ko... and then... maybe the 200th post! hahaha! oh hell yeah! ayos ayos ayos!

Salamat talaga. Maraming salamat.... if you're reading this.. sige lang... basa lang. This is your life. this is my life. buhay din naman natin to... kapag tinatamad ka nang manuod ng big brother. eto mas totoo.. hindi scripted. totoong buhay ng kagaguhan ko at ng mga kasama ko.. Xempre kasama ka na sa buhay ko eh! hahahah!

....

orayt.. this is too long... oh yeah... if you want lypo shirts... mejo di pa ayos yung logo.. pero eto yung mejoo preview pa lang...

there.. i love my band. gotta keep practicing! and a big THANK YOU for celebrating my 100th post with me!

one big fucking blur.

2005-11-12T02:05:00.000+08:00

it had been hard. and i am not one fucking survivor.

now that i have finally tasted the bitter side of UP life... i want to end it all... flush it into the drain. stare at the infinite abyss seemed like eternal glory compared to registering to UP.

...

flashback.

mom's birthday was a big blur, too.

well... lots of food. and i mean... there's a lot of food. literally eating my heart out... i felt like dying while staring at the food. i am now turning into a vegan thanks to that incident when i couldn't breathe at all... but the food were staring at me.

the beef oyster was begging to be eaten. the baked mussles wanted to climb inside my mouth. the chicken and pork barbecue was dripping with sauce, wanting to be devoured. but i, thanks to my powerful concern for my body. did not draw to these temtations.

i ate the corn and mushrooms. i ate the coleslaw. i ate the rolls... that was enough. i do believe that was enough. oh yes... it's not a crime to eat pasta... so i ate it anyway. oh the fucking cream in that carbonara.

...

i woke up sweating.

and late.

and i was fucking irritated with this. thus proved that this day is one helluva fucking blur. even vaguer than yesterday. blur blur blur blur. that is what to me felt like enrolling to this effing institution.

got there late. but in time for the release of my form 5. they only gave me 9 units. i recieved a four in math thus drudging me back into getting my hands in chem15 and math14. like i cared at all. the main plan was to get all the 30 units and haul my ass over to diliman. that's the plan.

but i felt depressed. i never knew what to do. i lack 4 big subjects. that means 14 units. that means that i could now officially pull the trigger and spray the walls with my brains. that means that i am on the verge of suicide. that means that i am dead meat. that means... oh you get the point. dot dot dot.

they gave me a form 5 with 3 subjects on it. 9 units. fuck-a-doodle-doo. what the hell am i gonna do with this? i passed biology. yet the fucking you-pee gods never bothered to grant me the dreams of getting bio2. they never ever bothered to give me econ11. fuck you, you docile little shitholes. i hate this institution.

why can't we be like diliman. and do all the registering in the internet where i am every goddamn night of the break. i felt like shit being stepped by a hundred mad cow. i felt lost lost and even lost.

i never knew what the fuck was going on.

i hold on to my form26. what the hell am i gonna do with this? enlist subjects? that seems easy enough... NOT.

i went to Baker and got PE2. then i realized that getting bio2 and eco11 was more important. when i got there no more slots. then i figured. hell, i am going away anyway. that was the plan. there is no fucking way that i could ever ever ever ever ever manipulate the plan. that's the plan. and the plan shall stick and stick like boogers on the wall.

BS GE was the main goal. get my hands on as much ge as i can.

i felt lucky. i got socsci2. then it ended. no more ge's available. which meant prerog. which meant me burning in hell. which meant the sheer joy of suicide. which meant the end of my lifelong dream. but stop. this is not the end of the world.

i got desperate. luckily, i needed IT1 again for obvious reasons. 6 units down which meant 2 more subjects. to get that 21 units, the epitome of my life. the sheer genius. i don't mind overloading myself. i don't need the pressure. i have rules laid out this sem. and those rules go with the plan. i should stick to the rules and the rules shall be extremely used. those rules will get me to burn the fuel in my brain. no more mister stupid and lazy ass shinji. this time. we need to study my man.

the rules apply.

i guess there nothing more to do but pre-rog. the lame fucking ass thing to do is to pre-prog. and i want HUM1 or speechcom! goddamn you steph.

anyway. i had been depressed all night. now i can't sleep. thanks to mico, cyrus and cabal for making me tambay with them at festival. big blur. i'm currently fixing my schedule. i hope it all goes well and as for my pre-rogs... goddamn you... i'll do well i do promise.

...

there is no turning back. i must go to UPD the sem after this one. if all else fails well... i'd be stuck in los banos damnation forever. I love UPLB. i really do. you can read my past blogs. but i just don't think i'll grow from this course of mine. i won't become successful and my dreams belong to other courses. i just want to get out of the dreaded degree of Bachelors of Science. for godssakes. im an artist.

im a poet. a writer. a playwright. a scriptwriter. a musician. a movie-addict. a bibliomaniac and in short art flows in my vains. not science. i'll leave those to the mathematician. i would want a course that could satisfy my cravings. my soul belongs to anything bachelors of arts. not science. spare me...

...

if you, in case are wondering what are the rules... they're really simple.

1. STUDY you ass out.
2. NO RICE
3. NO BEER
4. Less Coke and Pepsi
5. More Tea
6. STUDY fucker.
7. PASS everything and leave math behind.
8. No Screwing around the night before the exams.

it mainly concerns my diet and my studies. oh yeah... im quietly thinking this over but i do think that number nine would be no falling for lame ass girls. yes i think that i right. i have no time for love right now. i hate love. loathe is the word for it....

i loathe love.

...

to ease the depression i watched fight club twice while cancer and drinking a litter of milk. it's doing fine. currently watching Crying Ladies which is a "feel-good" movie. and later i shall watch American Pie 4, which should be lame... but whattheheck... that should ease the depression.

sunday night im going back to los banos to fix my stuff. monday it's back to the drawing board and i need to re-asses my finances. yes yes yes. tomorrow will be practice and probably hang out with jonah since she's in the perimeter.

practice i can't wait. that would ease the pain a lot more easier.

current units: 18 + (5 for lts2 and Pe2)
Aimed subjects: ECO11 and BiO2

if ever i do get eco11 and bio2 then i would cancel IT1 because it sucks.
but if not i would replace them both with HUM1 or SPCM1.

that ends my day. and probably my life. i hate this stupid godforsaken world of ours. but i do love the man upstairs. the one watching all of us. the one who is turning us into his own Sims Pc Game. God. i love you my man. i know you're testing me... and i am honored that you are with me along the way. thank you Jesus.

ang mundo ay isang ilusyon. walang totoo.

2005-11-09T23:28:00.000+08:00

walang magawa noh? parang puta na yung buong mundo...

medyo solb na yung part na class card ko. pero tsaka ko na ikukwento... maya maya... pagkascroll down mo... ayos yun pare!

...

in the archiving news. since this is now my 98th post and nearing to the end. well... 2 more posts and i shall be celebrating my most awaited 100th post celebration. i am so happy. those 100 posts contained the pain the suffering the fucked-up moments the shitty lame ass sequences. and the fun and the tears and the fun fun fun and more fun. and of course me.

i calculated and from February-August my posts are now 143 pages in microsoft word terms. 143 pages. wow... august palang yaan! anyway... ima print it and then publish it for my own sake. people could read if they would want to.

...

yesterday we went to sm southmall to buy milk. and then i did nothing. i wanted to see a movie but there wasn't anything that interested me anymore. so i rather wait for wednesday and watch ilusyon.

mom gave me a hundred bucks to spend and that couldn't buy anything except food. so i walked around and around and around. chuck palahniuk was lost in that effing mall. so i went in booksale just for fun. malay mo worth it yung 100 pesos ko.

i was looking around and was nearing to buy that 80 pesos tattered copy of Amy Tan's The Joyluck Club. being a chick flick and an asian one it interested me and that 3 hour oliver stone movie was a wonder to me. The different stories of americanized asian women is really powerful to watch.

and this was before Mano Po. which i think is very similiar to The Joyluck Club. anyway. i held the copy in my hands and decided to walk even more... Then i saw it... A 1956 vintage copy of The Catcher in The Rye... complete with scarlet cover and the same wonderful writing of JD Salinger. i dropped my Joyluck Club and instantly went over that copy. i already have a copy. but what the fuck. this is vintage we're talking about baby! and it's only 40 pesos! meaning if i rummage around i could find another 40 pesos book! What a joy!

and what a joy it truly was.

i kept on barraging the books. then it occured to me... it was a 1972 bantam publication copy of Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar... holy-fucking-canole! and it's also 40 pesos! waaaaaaw! in today's time that copy is now selling the cheapest being 365.00php in powerbooks and they even have a 699.75 peso copy. But this! a vintage one! only costing 40 pesos! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

so that's 80 pesos. i can't buy anymore.

i paid for the books and went back seeing other copies if there were still that interests me. and then i saw it... a 40-peso copy of John Knowles' A Separate Peace! HOLYYYYY! wawwww! i had to buy it. takbo ako kay mama asking for 20 pesos and there i bought it! it was a 1980 bantam publication copy.. tangina... jackpot ako tonight!

i also saw another 40-pesos copy of The Lord of the Flies... i wasn't interested since the movie horrified me as a little boy. imagine other little boys killing others just to survive. it sounded interesting pero trauma ako nung bata. so there.

we went home.

...

i finished reading Angels and Demons. amazing. 560+ pages i read in 2 amazing nights. last night i was dumbfounded while reading the other half of the book. the pace was intensely fast. and it kept me turning the pages.

i was glorified to finally finish angels and demons. it was an amazing read. i figured this one is also harder to film. the CERN, the vatican, the antimatter. everything had to be perfect. and i do believe that if The Da Vinci Code movie would be a worldwide success (which i think it would be) then they would surely made Angels and Demons movie possible... with a bigger budget nga lang.

anyway. the illuminati, the vatican. everything. the novel was perfect and was heart-stopping. i loved it and im thinking of reading digital fortress sometime. although i'm a little preoccupied wth my future readings.

the ending was... WOW. everything was perfect. except for one... What the fuck happened to vittoria vetra. we could see her in fringes of the davinci code. but what really happened. bakit wala na siya sa sequel? would she be in the third book? what the fuck is up with that.

one thing i loved about vittoria is that she is so impulsive and strong-willed. she fights and fights and fights. unlike Sophie who was a little weaker and bleak. but nonetheless if they're casting Audrey Tautou for Sophie i would enjoy watching her!

anyway... more vittoria please. it's the ending of Angels and Demons that hangs in your head. Just when you think it's over.. there's still a hundred pages that you should read. amazing. Dan Brown is a masterful writer in his own genre. Chuck Palahniuk has his own genre. where do we even categorize him? anyway. Dan Brown is amazing. the facts he pulls and the reality on his writings are just unbelievable. the cliffhangers in the chapter ends. impressive.

...

kanina i went back to elbi to get my classcards. thank god. i wanted to get out of the house. this house is ordered chaos. anyway. it was my first time commuting to go there. and i got a little scared pero ayos lang. i got there to get my class cards. tas biglang. tangina wala mga prof ko! kaya tinamad na ako!

i bought my mom a cake from mer-nels. and then went around elbi. wala din sa registration flow na magdala ng classcards. so i think wala na yun. screw the fucking classcards. anyway. dun lang ako. tambay. tas alis din agad. i went to festival to watch ilusyon. which i heard was really good.

...

i got there sa festi at around 1:30. the screening was 2:45 which gave me enough time to go around and look for stuff. i hardly got any money. and decided that i shouldn't go off and blow them away again. mga 150 nalang natira. i still need to watch a movie, buy at least a book, eat food and go home. watch me do it.

anyway. of course i went to festival's booksale... and i fucking bought the most amazing bargain ever. ever ever ever ever... it was a 1969 copy of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. I flipped. literal. sobrang flipped ako... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! at tangina! 15 pesos lang siya! putangina talaga! that book sells now for 399.00 php sa Powerbooks. and i got it for 15-fucking-pesos.

i could buy books every goddamn day.

but hell.

i bought my ticket for the movie an hour before it starts. pinagbentahan ako. again my 18 year old charm did it again. hindi na ako tinatanong kung 18 ako. basta muka na akong 18. enough said.

i walked around. no new album sa oddyssey. same books sa national. same old same old. i saw wheng and maica sa national. wala lang, then i went around even more. i decided to eat after the movie nalang. and there it was. ayos lang. i went inside around 2:20.

ilusyon was one of the entries for the cinemanila film festival. and it didn't won anything but it captured filipino critics and the cinema evaluation board even slapped it an A rating. francis told me it was good. so hell, i decided to watch it.

i wanted to watch Ab-normal beauty too. another cinemanila entry. but then maybe later, or even tomorrow.

ilusyon takes place in 1958 starts off with Miguel (Yul Servo) who went to manila to follow his father Pablo's (Ronnie Lazaro) footsteps, to become a painter. Miguel gets accustomed to manila. Meeting different people like The apartment's head (Bella Flores) and her sexy niece Tess (Jennifer Lee not shedding clothes, FUCK!), the eccentic mailman and his co-workers.

one day a beautiful lady comes knocking on miguel's door. it was Stella (Jaycee Parker) who thought Miguel was actually his father. Stella was a model for her father. Immediately Miguel fell in love with her. What follows is a lie, and even more lies... and a passion.

this movie is how filipino movies should be made. i was impressed with the digital stylings. The story, written by the amazing Jon Red was very deep and yet, vivid with color. What really stands out of the movie are the visuals. Tangina, lupet ng visuals na to... Ang ganda. Literal. Sobrang artistic talaga. even the lovescenes... it was indeed, beautiful.

this is one movie we should all be proud of. Ang galing ng handling ng scenes. The camera work is amazing. the lighting was even amazing. and the fucking score... oh man oh man oh man. Perfect. I loved the movie. the flashbacks. the silent scenes. the emotional ones. and the ending.

This movie is a feast for the eyes. im glad i caught it and a few cinemas in manila decided to show it! thanks for Festival Supermall. the acting was superb. ayos lang. kahit si jennifer lee. ayos. even though she played a virgin and remained a virgin till the end... oh man. sayang. ang sexy pa naman niya. Bituin Escalante was even there! and she was good. really.

overall. i loved the movie. this is one Art Film that would make me proud. lupet ng pinoy. There's even a scene where they sing and dance... just like the old movies are made.

...

naalala ko lang yung sinabi ni nino mulach sa isang talk show dati. sabi niya to think na ang pilipinas ang unang bansa sa asya na nakagawa ng pelikula tas ganito yung situation ng industry natin ngayon.... tangina.. sayang.

i believe in our cinema. cinema is way different from showbiz. cinema is art and showbiz is trash. we ruin artists. the true artists are the actors who do their job well and the directors and producers scriptwriters who fill their hearts in the movie.

which is why i am transferring to diliman next year. if God gave me the right to. i firmly believe that i could. i want to help and create amazing movies. i do believe i could. i want to... i really want to.

...

my wisdom tooth is killing me. i fucking hate puberty and growing up. that's why im doing things meant for legal age before i turn legal age. wala lang. watch R-18 movies even though you're not 18. Drink alcohol even you're not 18. Why do it later if you could do it now?

don't procastinate.

...

i am now on the verge of convincing myself to buy the pussycat dolls album. i love these girls. tangina i really do...

on other news. i must sleep. my mother's birthday is today. and i must sleep for her party. im getting my long awaited haircut.. and it's gonna kill me.

...

im reading A Separate Peace. it's good. a classic.

...

roar. roar. and more roar.

2005-11-08T00:09:00.000+08:00

it feels like ages since i last blog. like i usually say. i missed blogging. wala lang.

i must admit that writing is still in my vains. even though all i do is write and blog my fucking inconsistent and utterly boring life, it's still fun to do. and yes i do ace exams because of my sheer talent of writing. boo me.

roar you and you and you.

my last blog was thursday last week. and i think that was a really long time ago. blog-wise. anyway. i have few to tell yet this seems so long. wala lang.

thursday-november3

wala lang akong ginawa today. wala lang as in wala. tambay. tingin sa salamin. i was still reading Lullaby which is utterly one of the fucked up books that i really dig. anyway. i have money and mom added 200 to it. i have my final 500 which meant that i could buy stuff since the sembreak is about to end. and i really want to buy books and get out of the house.

mom gave me money because she is leaving for la union to accompany my lola again. god forbid that she loved the trip. she actually hates and it would rather go to the mall than go with my grandmom. but i shouldn't be telling you that.

i did stuff that i usually do for the day. at the stroke of four pm i decided that i should leave this house and part ways with my rightdoings and do my wrongdoings. wala lang akong magawa dito sa bahay. so i figured. why the hell should i stick here? last four cancers on the loose.

i opted to go to festival. and yet look for something new. they still have survivor and lullaby. they don't have invisible monsters anymore. i swore to god that i should've bought that one before i lost it. i saw one copy before. not having any money at that time i shoved my head up my ass.

anyway same-old-same-old sa festival nothing's new really. no new cd's and stuff. wala basta wala. so i decided to go to town. wala lang. powerbooks i really dig. so i should go there and buy the books i wanted to buy. there you go.

the thing is about me is that i want to practice my walking skills. so i walk from festi to town and saved myself 7.50 pesos. wala lang. talagang wala lang. it's a diet and i get to explore the lush places and stuff. maaga pa naman. mga 4:30 palang. so there.

diretso ako powerbooks. looked around. they have no books yet. they have some but none interests me. i quickly grab Chuck Palahniuk's Diary and Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. i wanted to buy Manix Abrera's Kikomachine Komix but i have no money left. meron pa pero it's best to save some. anyway. with my gen text and my powercard the 700+ price tag became 550. yey thanks. anyway.

tower records. nothing. still haven't released Up Dharma down or even Juan Pablo Dream. those i dig. rock in a different level. one with piano and one with trumpets. still haven't made up my mind if i should buy paramita's album. na-amaze ako na yung girl vocalist siya din yung drummer. pero naisip ko... nagawa na pala to dati. Karen Carpenter was actually the drummer of The Carpenters. now that is awesome. Karen Carpenter sadly died of anorexia. a sad disease that i would never. i mean never get in my life.

anyway. i preffered to watch a movie. wanted to watch Vic Sotto's Ispiritista. but i later decided that this is the kind of movie that you should watch on a rented copy from Video City rather than on a 100-peso Ayala Mall cinema. so there. i watched John Singleton's Four Brothers.

this is actually one of the best guy flicks that i had seen. it has guns. hot women and a heart. i think the movie was great. John Singleton's other flicks like 2fast2furious wasn't exactly good. ayos lang in my scale. pero he hit it big time with this one.

Four Brothers adopted by an old woman comes back to their hometown when their mother was actually brutally murdered one night. so they came to bury their mom and the ones who killed them. Detroit is actually full of hoodlums and gangs. and they believe that their mother wasn't killed but rather killed because of them.

four brothers. two white. two black. impressive plot. anyway. the plot was deeper. and yet the heart of the movie was there. Evelyn Mercer (Fionnula Flanagan) is a tough but warm-hearted woman who spent her life getting children out of foster care and into permanent homes. But there were four incorrigibles she could not place, and those were the ones she adopted herself. She made a family with impulse-control-impaired Bobby (Mark Wahlberg), captivated by a hot-tempered honey Angel (Tyrese Gibson), family man/play by the rules Jeremiah (Andre Benjamin), and would-be rock star Jack (Garrett Hedlund).

anyway they place the question of who would want to kill the sweetest woman in the world? anyway they go off asking questions instead of waiting for the police. as usual they suspect that the police are involved and sort of shit. anyway.

the heartfelt scenes did get me. like the thanksgiving dinner in which they remembered their mother telling them to be respectful in the table. and the scene where mark wharlberg, as though as he could be crying in the bathroom. and Garrett Hedlund crying while viewing the videotapes showing their mother's killing... it's good.

anyway. the actions scenes are there and john singleton is good on these kind of scenes. the movie is good. all in all. it's good.

kinda makes me think that they should release hustle and flow here and i should watch it in theatres. and i kinda think that i shouldn't miss Crash. roar.

...

anyway after the movie i decided that i should get dinner in the form of gonuts donuts. lakad ako again. commerce avenue. and went to westgate. the thing is ang daming shooting sa town and westgate. malay ko ba kung ano yung mga yun. pagdating ko sa gonuts. aba! nandun si Champ Lui-Pio with 4 other girls. who made him look gay.

wala lang. ignore. pasok muna ako tas order. tas yun paglabas ko nandun na yung mokong sa likod ng kotse niya nagtetext. kaya dun na ako umupo sa seat nila. wala naring upuan sa labas eh. mwahaha. anyway.. i stalked the motherfucker.

his plate number by the way is XPD-770. stalk the motherfucker for me okay? hahaha. wala lang. trip trip trip. anyway. after eating i went back to festival through commerce avenue. walk of course and went back home.

...

friday walang ginawa. dumating lang mga pinsan ko para tumambay dito sa bahay. inaayos yung bahay nila sa mandaluyong so we agreed that they should crash our place. may baby kasi tas yung isa pamangkin ko gustong kalaro yung mga tito niya. kaya yun. dito muna sila.

which explained why i haven't been blogging. they were sleeping in my room and i was left to do my things outside.

those nights i usually played with resident evil 4 and tony hawk american wasteland. ayos. both games were amazing. i was intrigued by resident evil 4's storyline. you're not battling zombies anymore. this one seemed more realistic. you're battling evil demented disease infected cult villagers. and those villagers have the iconic slow movement with matching Hacks, Knives, Dynamites, Huge Forks, Itak, Bolo and spanish language to boot.

wow. this game is just... groundbreaking. a giant leap off the series. anyway this whole village is under drugs and are injected with a virus that was excavated in ruins (shall we say jurassic park?) the us president's daughter was hostaged by the fucking cult and it's up to Leon Kennedy (6 years later from the Resident Evil 2 game) to save the day. Along with Ada Wong (yes, that reporter from the same game) and other fucked up characters.

this is way scarier. you know that the ones you're fighting with have deadly weapons and VIRUSES. god. capcom is a genius, they made this game possible.

american wasteland on the other hand is the only tony hawk game that i seriously played. it was fun and exciting. and yes... NO LOAD TIMES! amazing!

...

i kept reading Lullaby also, i only finished it last night.

Carl Steator is a hack reporter, Helen Hoover Boyle is a real estate agent selling disgruntled houses filled with ghosts of people who died in them. Both had killed their spouses and children while reading a poem from a library book. Both of them swore that they should put a stop to this. so they go on through an amazing journey searching every library for the book and burning Page 27. the culling song.

Chuck Palahniuk is a masterful and wonderful writer. he creates a world filled with weird and wacky and fucked up stuff. and yet he makes it realistic and his characters come alive in your mind. he is truly my favorite author.

anyway. LULLABY is an out of the ordinary book. in a word "ang lupet." a critic said that "even i couldn't write this well." and saying that lullaby "contained more plotlines only in it's first 30 pages"

anyway. i thought the book was just simple. Carl and Helen should burn all the books. what follows is a series of Witchcraft, Serial Killings, Vegan belief and Dead Fashion Models. oh and yes, The Culling Song. an ancient african poem that was read in order to kill someone in the most peaceful manner. unfortunately, the culling song made its way to a storybook for children. which explained most of the sudden infant death syndrome. but it also killed various ages.

he is amazing. the story, the characters, everything was perfect and profound. his genius should be recognized and read by everyone. Chuck Palahniuk, my gosh!

...

anyway. now that i had finished it i actually believe that there should be a sequel and i want more. more more more more more! the story was cut short. roar! i loved every page.

we went to festival saturday and bought stuff. my lola was leaving so my mother decided to cook her something before she go. for her despedida. a sort of-get out of here party. loved it. my lola's leaving. thank heavens.

sunday she left. and we went to metropolis to shop for milk. and encountered the pinoy big brother fans day. eck. sila pumunta. i went straight to the car. we went to mass sa town and i finally have THE KIKOMACHINE KOMIX! AYOS!

we went to mandaluyong to drop my cousins off. and ate beck wanted an extended vacation. kaya nandito sila ni LJ. my pamankin. who hates me. everytime i carry her she cries. and stares at my face and tells me to fuck off. roar.

...

problemado ako ngayon actually. i have no idea that we need class cards. wala pa akong class card. kaya babalik akong lb sa wednesday to resolve this shit. and then enrollment sa friday.

we are now repainting the house. for thursday my mother's party. its her birthday and i have no money left to buy her a gift. ayaw naman niya ng gifts eh. kiss lang and i love her parang isang milyon na. and i truly love my mom.

...

painting the house was fun. roar. orange na bahay namin! hahaha! and thursday mom will have this big party because all of her classmates are coming. and i will be there. yey! party party parttty!

...

currently archiving again my past blogs. this is my 96th post. and i would be so happy to make my 100th post. i should do this before the sembreak ends.

im reading Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. still like the davinci code but i think this is a far more deeper book. and i think this one's harder to film. but it's good that everytime i think of robert langdon i think of tom hanks. hopefully vittoria if ever they cast her, i think that girl from The Phantom of the Opera would be great. i forgot her name. Emmy Rosum! there!

toodles mga pare. i expect you all to be here! anyway!

oh yes. The Chuck Palahniuk book update:

Almost there.

2005-11-03T03:28:00.000+08:00

I've been so busy nowadays...

the last thing that i posted was about the stuff. anyway. i mentioned about buying stuff and lots and lots of stuff. anyway. monday we went to market! market! to do stuff. because we were bored. i finally have resident evil 4 and tony hawk's american wasteland.

my brother digs tony hawk and i fucking dig resident evil 4.

the perfect game for the haloween. it's effing mind boggling. 6 years after resident evil 2 leon and ada is back from the original game. and they're here to kick ass. now in europe leon was assigned to seek the lost daughter of the president and everyone's fucked up in the village. the village people then turned out to be zombie-pitchfork-weilding sons of bitches. those fuckers.

scary the game. i hate the tension. but rest assured even though you're not battling zombies anymore. these fuckers are waaaayyyyy smarter than zombies and waaay scarier because they kill you. roar. and there's brown paper back man with chainsaw and he kicks my head out. scary talaga.

anyway... the game is evidently the best among the resident evil series and it is now being hailed around the world by critics and gamers alike. i like the big leap out of the racoon city and they made the decision wisely and turned the game upside down. changing the gameplay and it is obvious that this one's waay better.

increased the capacity with the storyline. my god im still in chapter 1-3 and the story is already filled with plot and no evident holes. oh god this game is amazing. anyway... im scared to play it at nights. i might wake up people with my cursing. so leave that one.

...

anyway we went to the cementary tuesday and did absolutely nothing. i took pictures and that is it.

there. scary some of them are. but they're fine.

...

really i can't say anything for now. since the day was mostly boring. im looking for other ways to get out of the house. i want to watch a movie. like vic sotto's ispiritista for one. oh well... that's fine and dandy.

mother is renovating the house once more. for her birthday. renovating the house kills me. anyway my cousins are again stopping by the house for vacation because their house too will be renovated. and mother is going to la union with lola. hope that goes well...

registration is near. and i can't wait to go back to los banos.

...

as you all know this is my 96th post. and come my 100th post i will unvail a new and i say new layout. and also i will archive now my posts. i am now in the middle of archiving MAY 2005 posts. and as of now i am in about 60+ bond papers. i have to print it and bind it so my memories are kept with me and in cyberspace.

i heart you blogger.

...

I love my blog. and so do you people. so keep on reading my misadventures and my adventures as well... ohhh... yeah as if my life's that interesting.

FOR ONCE. I MISS MY FRIENDS. i want to go out before you suckers go back to school. ROAR YOU GUYS! come on! i miss you all!

...

the puppies.

...

i hate the speaks. they suck. creed-ish. since creed sucked. the speaks sucks as well.

...

i finished reading The Da Vinci Code 2 nights ago. it's one helluva page turner. i loved the book. and yes... i loved it. now reading palahniuk's lullaby. one hulluva ride din to! roar!

...

When Your Body Hurts. BIG TIME.

2005-10-31T01:45:00.000+08:00

i have to admit. my body hurts like shit. i mean... really bad. sobrang sakit ng katawan ko... roar. anyway... let's get back on that later.

...

friday. i woke up early since they woke me up. they had to pay the bills and mom had to enroll so she asked me to come with her. i just had to get out of the frickin house because i'd been stuck in here for the longest time.

so was there. stuck and bored out of my wits. i decided not to come with them. an hour later i decided to meet up with them at the mall. so i got at the mall and bought the first thing on my mind.

The Orange and Lemons Repackaged Album.

Let's face it. Orange and Lemons is now one of the most popular bands in the philippines. but i don't know. i still like them and i really think it's not their fault that they became popular. Spongecola came raw to me during 2003 but it became a rip off once their mainstream album came.

and here comes orange and lemons. I loved their Love in the Land of Rubber shoes and dirty ice cream. one of the best albums i've held in my hands. and then came their big mainstream album Strike Whilst the iron is hot. Leaving Terno Records behind. But that didn't change their status. They're still that great band. and i still love them.

then came the dreadful Pinoy Ako song.

anyway. Fuck that song. i hate it because every goddamn skwater loves it. but it never occured to me that OnL wanted that song. they just did that for the popularity they obviously need. but still the filipinos only know that song. and i am so glad that they do. They, for one, i think cannot appreciate the true meaning of Orange and Lemons. They just see the band as the band who sang the theme from Pinoy Big Brother.

anyway. here comes the repackaged album. Still on the 250 pesos price (i bought the first pressing of Strike Whilst in Tower Records and it cost me 275 bucks.) it came with an AVCD with 2 videos and 6 new recordings. The Strike Whilst is in a jewel case and the bonus AVCD is in a different package.

The bonus Cd was great. i just hate their videos but it always seem funny watching the guys. Their videos are plain and the Heaven Knows video is just ridiculous to watch. oh well... what i love about the bonus avcd is the Naked Renditions of Hanggang Kailan and Heaven Knows. I swear to god... they are so good in naked versions. they should come up with just a naked album. That would be so great. sobrang wow...

the other 3 tracks? oh god. please don't ask. they're all commercial material. Blue Moon (yes, that old song) has been revived by onl. The first is for that MMFF 2005 entry starring Jennylyn Mercado and Mark Herras. Blue Moon. The rendition was great. it also has a radio edit which is a wee bit faster than the other. The second is the new Sunsilk theme song Abot Kamay. Err... i don't know if i like this song. AT LEAST it's a SONG! it doesn't have Sunsilk in the lyrics for one thing. Thank god.

and the final... well... guess.. its the PINOY BIG BROTHER THEME SONG!

i think it's better if people just buy the Pinoy Ako soundtrack. I bet they also will because its a lot cheaper. YEY! Leave this repackaged album to fans!

Still, The naked renditions are amazing. I am so happy they did the naked versions. i love them.

...

as i was paying for the onl cd i asked if they still had the Kiko Machine Cd. i figured. hey. buy this while you have money.

i never saw the CD in their shelves. good thing they told me they had new shipment of the CD. instantly i bought it.

i never thought this band is so good. i have to say they're a lot better than the last 2 cd's of parokya ni edgar. pne for one thing became so novelty that you can now categorize them in the ranks of lito camo and bayani agbayani. they're songs aren't great anymore. it's sad.

anyway. A U.P. band i have to be proud for KikoMachine. They're the new thing. i love them. at first i wasn't up to buying their cd. but when i realized and heard one of their songs i instantly want the CD. then i lost money and it got out on shelves. they're selling real good.

i finally have it. 14 Tracks of pure genius. Pinoy Pop Culture. Everything. it was a great CD. it was so fun. I loved the tracks. Starting off with PULP. "kailan kaya kami mapupunta sa cover ng Pulp Magazine?" and then my favorite track: Val Sotto. "sa bigote palang. Pamatay. Panalo ang idol ko... Machong Macho. Kapatid niya si Tito at si Vic ngunit siya ang pinaka-gwapo. Ang idol ko: Si Val Sotto"

they have really great tracks. and you wouldn't believe it they have nice slow tunes too. Takeshi is just amazing. it talks about a guy who is just tired of courting this girl. The whole song is great. especially the chorus: "kahit na ang hirap mo namang ligawan. ang daming pagsubok ang dapat daanan. daig ko pa ang sumali sa takeshi's castle" ang hirap talaga manligaw.

if you don't know takeshi's castle... where is your childhood pare?!

next up for me is the Kikomachine Comix by Manix Abrera

...

i am in near completion of my chuck palahniuk novels. I recently bought Survivor. Which leads me to 4 more lost books. Diary can easily be bought in most Powerbooks branches. I've checked they had it in Glorietta, Town and Greenbelt. and it's probably the cheapest among the novels: 359.00. The most expensive is Haunted for 975 bucks. and so far i have no idea where to get invisible monsters and choke. roar.

here is the current status of my chuck palahniuk search:

...

we ate at sbarro's. i just love the place. like i told you. i am a sucker for pasta and pizza. you gotta love em pare. and sbarro's is just a great place to get both pasta and pizza and real big style. roar. i crave one right now.

...

just to spend money i also bought 2 new ps2 games. i wouldn't allow my brothers to play this. strictly for me. haha mean!

one of rockstar's newest babies. since the release of the controversial GTA: San Andreas they now have the game adapatation of the cult classic The Warriors. I can't remember if i already saw this movie. im getting thoughts about it. and i heard it was great. i have to find a dvd for this one. my tito knows it and he played with me with the rumble mode.

the game happens 4 months before the movie. so you can play the prequel and the movie itself. and i do believe that the game delivers. it's great. you don't need cars in this one. you simply smash em and steal car radios for 15 dollars.

the brawling is amazing. the engine they used to have 20 gang members fight with you is amazing. i guess they did that with dynasty warriors. never liked that game anyhow. there's a lot of blood. real violence. curses are there. and the storyline is great. im still playing it. just great.

another game i bought is we love katamari. the sequel to last year's surprise hit. i never saw a copy of the first game. when i did the cd was psyched out. so here i am with the sequel. and i was breathless. it's just amazing. no ps2 collection is complete without this game.

...

i am so glad this game is finally out. i'll rush out to the mall tomorrow to buy this baby. Next up for me is Godfather the game. WOW!

...

i bought a dvd. also. finally. i saw this movie the night before in SALT (something alternative - that late night show in Studio 23 they also featured Pedicab that night) and i think this movie is okay.

luckily i saw the dvd the next day. i bought it. wala lang. i don't think this movie is okay. Ethan Mao is gay and his father discovers that and he got booted out of the house. Living on the streets and hustling himself. he met Regmio also a hustler who offers him to stay in his place. Ethan then goes downhill with drugs and his fucking gayness. then one day he decides that he should go back to his family and get some stuff. his brother ticks him off. but accidents happen and they all got tangled up inside the house. and ethan goes crazy.

the acting was pretty lame. and the plot is thin. i did like the family drama side. but it was just... not that good. there are scenes which are confusing. and the ending is more confusing. and disgusting. imagine kissing another guy in front of your father. tangina.

...

i sat my alarm for 4am. and woke up at 4:26. i remembered it was garasi's birthday. i packed my bag and went out at 5am. when i got at garasi's place. there weren't there. even garasi. i hung out at the gas station outside our village and waited for them to come.

we got out of the house at 7am. pagdating namin dun sa place. ayaw pala nila dun. kaya we had to find another private pool. sabi ko dun nalang sa pinagbirthdayan ni boji. we went there sa pansol tas biglang 5thou daw. pero meron silang smaller place for 3thou. we got that one and then the party began.

onti lang kami. ako si lelep at si jocel lang yung hindi pythagoras. pero what the hell?! i love that section i really wished na pytha ako nung senior year. pero hell.. they're fun people and i love them all...

the people who came:
garasi, karelle, jocel, jeyem, eugene, ong, narriel, laurence, ako, val, ernesto, lelep, joshua, cherry, tintin, jenny, ellery. did i miss somebody? i guess not.

anyway. the party was fun. real fun.

we swam and ate. and danced pinoy big brother style. but i do think that the highlight for everything here is the game we invented. TOUCHDOWN.

five guys in a team. There are no rules. just hold the ball pass it onto your teammates and get the ball to touch the other team's side. Just like football. only with water and no rules.

So that's Jocel, JM, Val, Laurence and Me on one team and Ong, Joshua, Eugene, Narriel and Ernesto on the other.

The first round. We ruled. sobrang saya amputa. panalo kami. sobrang nakakapagod yung laro. The Second round. they won. and championship round. dun na! Down and dirty na yung laro. Sobrang gaguhan na yung laro... tangina... eto na. First one to get 15 touchdowns Win.

Tanginang laro yan. sobrang pagod na ako. not to mention laseng na ako neto. isang GM na lapad sakin lang. tangina. tas yun. sapakan. hilahan ng bola. meron pang nag-nipple twist sakin. tangina sobrang sakit ng nipples ko. sobrang sakit talaga.

kaya eto ngayon. sobrang sakit ng katawan ko... terrible. terrible pain... si jeyem din daw. lahat naman yata kami... ang malupet pa sa laro: there was no prize. trip lang talaga! at least we won!

sobrang saya ng swimming. at least nagkaron ng spice ang sembreak ko. anyway.. PICTURES:

...

i just remembered: Touchdown is just like Fight Club

it only happens during and not after Fights. Sobrang bakbakan kami dun sa laro. I'll try to upload the videos as well...

...

today i slept and my body ached. i watched 4 hours of the simpsons marathon and then fell asleep. read the davinci code and slept. and now im all awake. thanks to coffee crumble ice cream. which sucked.
