DECEMBER HIGHLIGHTS

Posted in About Me, Daily Lives, Entertainment on December 1st, 2005
I’m gonna be busy until next Tuesday! Sabay-sabay ba naman ang submission? Mababaliw na yata ako. But this quarterm is going to be exciting kasi dito ko malalaman kung may ibabagsak na akong subject for the first in my college life. (Yabang di ba?)

Movie of the month is King Kong! Medyo nalungkot nga ako because the hype is already in the United States. It’s almost two weeks na lang kasi before the release on December 14. Pero dahil sa pesteng Metro Manila film festival, I thought it will be moved to January, like Narnia.

At kani-kanina lang sa HBO, nalaman ko na December 14 na rin dito! Whoohhh!! Nabuhayan ako…Yeheyy…This movie is going to be huge!

Gorgeous



I downloaded a 50MB AVI file that features a 4-minute footage from the film. It’s awesome. The emotions are well-handled. The CGI is terrific. The level of details on Kong’s fur, the settings, Naomi Watts…everything is awesome.
I can’t wait!! (Di naman masyadong obvious di ba?)

My sister is going to the MTV Music Summit tonight. Sabi ko sa kanya, kukunan ko sya ng before and after pics ng music summit para ma-compare ang difference. The only reason she’s there is because of Mig Ayesa. Pag pinakita na sa MTV yung show, marerecognise nyo yung ate ko kasi may banner siya na “Hi Mig! I’m Rona! Mahal Kita!” written in three lines. Sana maayos pa ang pagiisip nya pag-uwi nya mamaya.

Christmas. Christmas. Christmas.
Everyone is making a wish list. Gagawa nga rin ako kahit wala naman talagang magbibigay sa akin. “Wish” lang naman e….

“ARROVO” BILL and MOANING MYRTLE

Posted in About Me, Entertainment, Movies on November 29th, 2005
Magbabayad na sana ako ng pamasahe sa bus tapos naalala ko na may kumakalat na P100-bill na na-misspell yung name ni GMA as “Arrovo”. Pagtingin ko sa P100 ko, “Arrovo” nga! Balak ko ipakita sa iba kaya sabi ko sa konduktor “teka lang” kasi papalitan ko ng ibang bill yung pera ko.

Pagdating sa school, pinagkaguluhan na yung P100 ko. Suggestion ng iba na ibenta ko daw sa ebay. At dahil kailangan ko ng pera (actually 100+ na lang pera ko), pumunta agad ako sa ebay.ph at grabe…ang daming nagbebenta ng “Arrovo Bills”. Meron isang bid for P3,333.00 for a single P100-bill! At meron pang 100 pcs for P20,000! [link] Wow. Pwede…

Itatago ko na lang muna. Konti pa lang yung nagbi-bid e. Palalakihin ko muna yung value. Malay mo, in ten years P20,000 na ito. Kaso nga lang 10 years pa yun. Eh kailangan ko nga ng pera di ba? Bahala na. Look at the case of Inverted Jenny. Mali yungpagkakaprint sa stamp. Na-invert kasi yung biplane. Eh 100 pieces lang nun ang nagsurvive ngayun kaya $150,000 na yung price.

Sana makakuha pa ako ng iba. Uulitin ko sana yung Harry Potter kasama yun sister ko e. Hindi ko naman magastos yung P100 ko…

Speaking of Harry Potter, napagalaman ko kanina na yung actress na gumanap kay Moaning Myrtle is already 40 years old! Can you believe that?? Isn’t that weird that a 40-year old actress playing a teenager? Galing di ba? If you’re still unsure, check her filmography at IMDB

RANDOM BLAH BLAHs

Posted in About Me, Events, Daily Lives, Television, Technology, Entertainment, Complaints on November 12th, 2005
Hindi ko lang talaga ma-organize ang mga thoughts ko ngayun kaya ganito na lang uli:  

Kanina napa-usapan namin yung mga anime. Ewan ko ba kung bakit sa lahat ng mga teenagers ako lang yata ang walang hilig dun. Lalo yung mga anime ngayun. DragonBall at Ghost Fighter lang yata napanood ko e…tsaka yung mga Mojacko at Doraemon lang (anime ba ‘to?). Kasi panahon natin yung mga Sarah, Cedie, Julio at Julia, Tom Sawyer,Peter Pan, Mask Rider Black, Bioman, Voltes V, Takeshi Castle, Flying House tsaka yung cartoons na tungkol sa takore na may time machine. Eh ngayun, puro PC Games na uso. Pero di ko talaga trip yung mga anime ngayun like Naruto. I’m not even trying to watch it. Parang pare-parehas lang naman kasi. Tsaka parang feeling ko, napaka-immature ko naman kung tangkilikin ko pa yan. Parang pambata. Bumibili pa ng badge at nangongolekta ng mga CD ng anime. Well, kanya-kanyang trip lang yan kaya wala na akong pakialam sa iba. Kung masaya sila sa anime, ok lang, Wala naman akong magagawa e. Mabaliw na sila sa lahat wag lang sa Pinoy Big Brother (uy, first time ko yata binaggit ang show na ‘to sa blog ko a.)

LETTING THINGS GO

Posted in About Me, Daily Lives, Entertainment, Movies on November 9th, 2005
I’m planning to dump all my Lord of the Rings files in my hard drive. Not all, actually. Yung mga movies lang, the whole trilogy. It’s consuming 5.6GB. Sayang lang di ba? Di ko naman ginagalaw pero kuntento lang ako na nasa PC ko yun. Kaya lang naman nandito yung mga file na ‘to dahil may sentimental value na ito. Para rin tong kasing sentimental ng “Unang-love-letter-na-binigay-sa-akin” kind of thing.  

Syempre, alangan namang i-store ko to sa PC ko ng habambuhay, maybe it’s just time to erase those files. Meron naman akong DVDs, extended edition pa. Bibili muna ako ng 9 CDs para back-up para in case na gusto ko ibalik or biglang naging 120GB yung hard drive ko, pwede ko pa ibalik. I’ve already done this with LOTR trailers. Nagtira lang ako ng iba. Pero hindi ko pa rin buburahin sa PC yung libo-libo kung collection ng pictures, wallpapers, screenshots at soundtrack ng LOTR. Yung movies lang. It’s just a way of letting things go.

NGAYON KO LANG NALAMAN

Posted in About Me, Daily Lives, Entertainment on October 14th, 2005
Natutuwa ako sa bagong discovery ko ngayong araw na ‘to.
For several years, I’ve been wondering kung sino nagpapatay at nagsisindi ng mga street lights araw-araw. Akala ko dati, naka-assign yun sa mga designated na bahay at meron taga-switch on and off kapa umaga na o gabi. Inisip ko rin na Meralco din ang nagswi-switch nun. Yun pala, hindi.

NEW HARRY POTTER TRAILER

Posted in Entertainment, Movies on August 31st, 2005
So the new Goblet of Fire international trailer has already been released online… 

I was speechless. Just can’t wait…
Pros: Simply breathtaking. Nice music. Awesome images. Beautiful Hermione.
Cons: Not-so-pretty Cho Chang. The awful Harry’s “Aaahhh!” at the end. Same old narrations of Dumbledore from the teaser trailer.

Cho Chang

ANTICIPATED MOVIES:
King Kong
The Chronicles of Narnia
(although Narnia and King Kong might be released on January due to that Metro Manila Film Festivals which had already pissed me off in 2002 and 2003 because of moving LOTR’s released date to January…grrr)
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Nov 16!! -> Only RP has this release date. It’s 2 days earlier than the US release date and that means we’re gonna see it first than any other country! Bwahaha!!!

*I’m planning to see Red Eye and March of the Penguins in theaters…if I have the money
