Have you seen New Moon? If so, how do you think it compared to the book? Was it better or worse than Twilight? Please, no spoilers!

YES, compared to Twilight, the movie is much better. There were some scenes in which I was in awe. Applaud to the directing! :)


Compared to the book, well, has there been any movie that was better than its book? Of course not.

BEWARE SHIRTLESS MEN!

New Moon can be summarized into just three words: HALF NAKED MEN.


The perfect synopsis!!!



Seriously, you can see all the fanservice they give to the young pubescent girls. It makes you kinda thing, "Is this porno for teenage girls?"

Not gonna talk much about Twilight and mystical creatures, that's gotta end for me tonight. This day has been a roller coaster ride for my emotions. At first, I was sooo excited to watch New Moon, and then my nerves cascade it again.


NERVES!


WHY!

Hospital duty is finally gonna start tomorrow, at 6am! 6AM darnit! I'm having a different case of the nerves since usually when I get scared, it just happens before the real thing, like hours or minutes before.


But this one is mild albeit LINGERING! Since yesterday! Nervous since yesterday! What is this? It sometimes makes me feel nauseous too.


Anyway, gotta knock myself to sleep now. God bless me! I would just like to think of this a new and "exciting" page of the book of my life. You know, always like that, at first, you get the nerves, but as time goes by, it just gets all funny. I guess that's what you call the flavor of life. My version.

OK, thanks to the anonymous commenter on my previous entry, and thanks to my Avistaz ban, I discovered this cool website, What is My IP Address?

(Went there to find out how to change IP address and all haha!)


Anyway, look how accurate the website was!!

Input your IP address and it tells you where you live! The site said I lived roughly near Hernan Cortes St., yeah there in the crowded places surrounded by crowding residential areas, just right there in the middle! SYKE!!!

NOT TRUE! But almost! Where I actually live, can't be seen but just scroll further and further, it be just...

THERE! Maybe one or two km away.



Anyway, what's wrong with that! Just around two kilometres percentage error but still accurate that I live in such area and in Cebu.


WRONG! There's still something very wrong. Mikko, also from Cebu, revealed that she was the anonymous commentator but before she did that this was what the site said.


MAKATI CITY FTW!!!


Not yet gotten over, maybe something wrong with my ISP but feeling hopeful this will turn out in a Google search: I AM BANNED IN AVISTAZ FOR NO REASON.

Ah?  
OMG I know I was just so morose after being banned in Avistaz, I finally got to work out the forum thingy but it still has to be confirmed, and they're not emailing me yet.

Meanwhile, my friend Mikko arrived and we suddenly struck an EPIC conversation!

CLICK TO READ HOW EPIC IT WAS )

I talked to Anney about my Avistaz ban by the way. I was still not over it. It hit me as if a boyfriend broke up with me for no reason, and will never talk to me again.

Feels like that, huhu. Even asked Yahoo! Answers about it, felt so embarrassed!


I found a way to tweak my IP address, it finally changed but STILL BANNED!!!! GR!

Anne tried it out herself and logged in with my details. SHE WAS ABLE TO LOG IN! LOG IN, I TELL YOU! NOT BANNED!

My spirits are lifted! There may be something wrong with my IP address but my account is intact! THANK YOU LORD! THANK YOU ANNE!

Aahhh..thank you friends for helping me out. Friends make your time worthwhile. :)

Jai just suggested me to watch My Tutor Friend 2, so here I come, Avistaz, my old trusty friend, a website complete with all Korean or Japanese movies torrents you can name!!

AEWSOMMMEE.


BUT ALAS! My good ol' friend has betrayed me, declaring me as my nemesis. WHY does this have to happen? Banning me without warning and for a reason I do not know of.



I went ahead to the forums, knocking upon their doors, I want to know why! BUT ALAS! Once again!




Never want me to come back ah??! Been very good to you, kept my share ratio high, never spammed on posts!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!


I tried to look for a way to contact the admin, but I HAD to go to the forum! HOW!! Tell me HOW!!

The RULES page can't even be loaded, so I can read it over again, to reflect upon my sins, but CAN'T BECAUSE I AM BANNED!


It's like a fortress from whence I came from, then suddenly kicked me out for no reason and locked me outside!! Huhu! So sad!

Where oh where can I find Asian movie torrents now?

So that's the word of the day: GRAVITY!


Well, did you ever have that feeling of the gravitational pull, how ever far you go, in the end you just end up going back to it? Subconsciously, or out of habit, or affinity? WE HAVE!


Today, me, Anne and Mikko(+Byron and Hazel) went to Ayala and ended up in Spaghetti Factory, once again for the umpteenth time. XD I cannot bother to count anymore.

It was like, "So where we gonna eat?" And in my mind was Spaghetti Factory, by default, but I didn't say it out loud to consider what else they wanted. But then there were hints of Spaghetti Factory, and whilst we walked, there was just a gravitational pull that lunged us into its doors and yellow cushion chairs.

I can eat there so many times, because I am that kind of person who just wakes up and say, "I feel like spaghetti!" Where are all the other patrons? Seriously.



I believe this photo has been used before..



SPAGHETTI IS SO UNDERRATED. UNDERAPPRECIATED.


That's because when people think of spaghetti they just think of the round noodle strings and a red sauce...


See what I mean? I talked to Google about Spaghetti and this was the first thing that came to his mind, too!!


But it's much more than that! Much more! Would you care to deviate from the norm, and perhaps, try a cream based sauce with salmon? Or pumpkin, maybe pesto??! And angel hair pasta!! Sluurp.

I feel like spaghetti now. And I haven't even woken from bed yet.

(Why didn't we EVER take a picture of food from Spaghetti Fac? Maybe because it's so enticing already and then we forget about everything except gorging some of those angel hairs into our mouthsss..)


++
In addition to that, exactly one week ago, I and some high school friends left for our reunion beach vacay! And what does vacay rhyme with!? YEHEY!

Thank God and His goodness there was no alcohol involved! But still I didn't know! We're not supposed to drink yet until we're 21! So what's with the legal age of 18? What? Just so we can go to jail? That's terrible.

Dad: Hey kiddo, congrats you're 18 now! YOU'RE A MAN!
Son: Ow boy! Gimme some o that drink you're having!

Dad: Oh no no, you can't drink yet til you're 21..
Son: WHAT?! So what privileges do I get being 18?!

Dad: You uh.. can go to jail!

WHAT A BUMMER!

Dad: And well, (hesitantly)... drive my car.

Son: AEWSOMMMME.


GIVE 18 YEAR OLDS MORE PRIVILEGESSS! I'm 19 and I drive with a student's license. Terribly. Maybe allow us to get jobs or something. That would be great.

BACK TO BANTAYAN!

All fun we had was GOOD CLEAN AEWSOME FUN! Remember those childhood games like 7up, Japanese and Ice Water? Aw man! You SHOULD REMEMBER! We also did this turn-around-fifteen-times-til-you're-dizzy then run without falling!



OPEN YER EYES





TOTALLY SWEATING OUR YOUTH OUT


(photos from Anne, mine and Mik's cams)


Thanks y'all! Shall we dine in more underappreciated restaurants? (counting money..)


And where to next? Let us complete all of the islands in the Philippines before traveling the world! TEEHEE!

Uh-oh! School tomorrow! Till the next entry, God bless and yowza!!!

A rainy day today! At least Cebu's temperature is lowering for a change. And I'm not the type to say, but I am bored! So going and hanging out with friends beats staying home playing Sims all day.


So Mikko came and picked me and Hazel up, then we went to McDonald's Escario. Purpose actually was- for Nikko to recruit Mikko to some networking thing called UNO.


That's a bad view I say.. Haha.

Myself, Hazel and Mikko in such a blur.

Here's the pimp, Nikko.. who is still such a blur.


The principle of networking is very familiar. The environment is very much like spreading the gospel to your friends. Haha.


It's more sneaky, however.


UNO is located uptown, with a coffee shop directly beside it, and Jollibee which is a stone's throw away. People from UNO have to bring you directly to this main office to recruit you, and of course, they know many people will be reluctant.

So, then, they would have to use technique!! A classmate tried to recruit me by asking me, "Hey, wanna hang out have some coffee in Gloria Jeans?" in which hopefully if I agree he would then bring me to UNO leaving me no choice. Good one, but no, if I have coffee bring me somewhere familiar like SM or something.



Anyway, about the sharing the gospel thing, yes. They have this booklet thing, and then they oriented us with all the products, blah blah, very much like showing someone an E-Cube, speaking of how Jesus died on the cross to save us our sin.


Then they talk about all the benefits, they show the numbers, all the maths, proving if you join this thing, then it's a win-win situation. Gospel version: Accept Jesus Christ's gift of life, and you shall have eternal life.


They testify, "Oh before I joined UNO, I was such a poor man, with money enough to buy lunch, pay taxi fare, occasionally having a beer, but now, thanks to UNO, I am at ease, for I earn money even when I'm asleep." Gospel version: Now that I have accepted Jesus, my life is changed, blah blah..

Maybe the founder of UNO must've been a Christian, and translated this gospel-sharing system into some business thing. Hmm.. could be.



After that, Nikko's friend still caught us up outside and continued spreading more gospel to us, making our stomach rumble louder. After a polite thank you, that's wonderful, awesome, see you soon, take care, goodbye, we dashed back to McDonald's!

To the rest of the photos..







In addition, I went back to writing stories. Writing a story, rather, which is hanging, lacking of realistic support, needs more character development, and well.. details.

I thought I could be a "writer" just because I describe things with flowery words and stacked adjectives, but let me write a plot for some fantasy adventure story, no thanks.

But that's exactly what I'm doing.

I could just be a screenwriter, perhaps? It would be funny to hear movie stars speaking in a Chippy-like manner dialogue. Nah, dialogues are difficult to write.


About the story, it is about a teen aged boy named Phoenix Skyflame (very nice name, eh? Made up Skyflame myself..thank you) who lives in a city where people worship Baal and numerous other gods. Seventeen and rebellious, Phoenix HATES Baal blaming him that their father has been spending less and less time with them.

Meanwhile, Phoenix continues to search for a way to enter his "heaven" again, the breathtaking Sky Room. Enter it through a door, but it is not a room for it has no walls, nor floor nor ceiling.

Other characters with funny names include Charles Vandal (I'm thinking Matt or John? The most BORING given name would be best), Falcon Skyflame, Cymbelline (??? inspired from a resounding gong and a clanging cymbal)...

May have to think it over and brainstorm again thanks to my permanent writer's block. It is sembreak after all. :)


This blog is a stumble-upon from the random surfing: Schoolpants. Funny, strange, and witty man.

A sunset has happened everyday here. But today, it seemed to tinge everything more pink than usual.



A witty description of the sunset and sunrise by myself, ephemeral but eternal.
-a true story.

Wouldn't it be just great to live in a simple quiet cottage, with a flowing river at the backyard, with a skylight as the ceiling in your room, and to grow fresh cinnamon? :)

Hello October~! It shall be the last week this week for our finals. That shall only be on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Thank you God, this semester is over. Although, the grades will not be the best there are, third year, I admit, is getting harder, but no excuses.


Here be a photo taken circa August 2006.


From my high school's parking lot/basketball court.


There are just times when I think about my younger teen days, what better I could've done with them with a mind like I have right now*. But, well, youth is wasted on the young and it is best wasted by them.

*not saying I am mature, but at least I know a tad better now.


And if I were given the chance to relive my youth, I cannot do it better than my real self who's tried it the first time.


Verily, high school is the past and cannot be literally relived.

Do not say, "Why were the old days better than these?"
For it is not wise to ask such questions. Ecclesiastes 7:10
