Ako na talaga ang fan! Hehe. Sana mapa-autograph ko to. Tsk!

seeing poon

And so it goes. I was having a hard, very difficult time managing my hair. Unlike the days when I was almost skinhead, my styling time now takes 5-10 minutes. Ayaw sumunod ng buhok ko sa wax! Pag walang gel para namang isang kumpol ng buhok lang. haha

Then I went to Galleria for an errand. Then there was Fix, so I got fixed! LOL. It's a good thing Del, my stylist since college, was there and available. So trim lang pinagawa ko since nagpapahaba nga ako ng buhok kasi magsisplurge ako ng treatment sa birthday ko. VAIN! haha. And then rinse. And then style.

Then suddenly may bulung-bulungan sa isang sulok. "Sya yung kumakanta..." Syempre alam kong hindi ako yun since boses palaka ako. haha. Eh masakit na ulo ko so diretso na ako sa cashier to pay. Then suddenly, alam ko na kung sino pinagbubulungan nila.

Si Richard Poon pala, POON as in spoon at hindi yung santo. Eh idol ko yun! May CD nga ako kahit na Standard ang genre nya. Pero masarap kasing pampatulog yun eh. Sayang hindi ko dala yung cd. Libreng autograph sana! Badtrip. Then nung inaantay ko na yung receipt eh magbabayad na rin pala sya. Pinigilan ko talagang huwag ilabas ang N95 8gig with 5megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss lens ko *whew*. Gusto ko pa-pic para may kasama naman tong blog entry ko! Maglalakas loob na talaga ako...

Kaso, wala rin. Haha. Nakakahiya eh. Next time na lang. Aabangan ko ulit sya sa Fix. And next time I'll see to it na dala ko na yung CD nya. haha. STARSTRUCK!!!

vantage point

Last night, I was able to watch Vantage Point at Gateway. The movie stars Hollywood biggies Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox, Forest Whitaker, and William Hurt as the US president. Was kinda surprised though with Sigourney Weaver's short exposure. It's as if the story will go on without her. Watch out for the twists and turns as the story progresses. Not your typical action flick. It's a must-see! And piece of advice, try to remember every detail.

27 dresses

I'm officially back to being a kaladkaring bata.

Nung nagyaya ako nung Wednesday morning akala ko walang pwede. Kaya diretso na akong Makati after office para maghanap ng lintek na sapatos na yan na wala nang kasya saking size! Bakit ba kasi kung kelan nagsesale eh dun nauubos ang size ko! Badtrip!

So yun nga. We watched 27 dresses at Shangri-La Cinema. LFS to since 9pm ang out ni Carsha from her MBA class sa LSGH. The movie was okay. If you've seen Got 2 Believe ni Claudine and Rico Yan, you'll say na 27 Dresses is a rip-off of that movie. Pero sobrang dami nga ng similarities. Pero nadala naman nila Katherine Heigl and James Marsden. The girl who played Katherine's sister is also the one in the movie Heartbreak Kid with Ben Stiller na pinanood din namin 2 weeks ago. Tumatak talaga sakin yung role nya dun na exhibitionist kaya pati dito sa movie na to eh inaantay ko yung ganung scenes hehe.

And si John Lloyd Cruz ay nakaupo lang sa likod namin with his non-showbiz GF. Ganito kasi. Nauna si Sab sa Shang since she's within the area and sya na bumili ng tickets. Then nasa likod nya sa pila si JLC. Knowing Sab na fanatic ni JLC, hindi na mapakali. Text agad. Then nauna daw pumasok sila JLC sa cinema. Kasi kami antay pa namin si Carsha na late! hehe. So ayun hindi nakapagpapicture ang president ng Jologs League na si Sab. Pero nung papasok na kami nakita nung guard yung ticket namin. K10-K12. Biglang hirit nya na si JLC daw eh L10-L11. Akalain mo yun! At syempre kinuha agad ni Sab yung K10. At ang nakakatawa pa eh behave sya pagkaupo. Ni ayaw kumain ng popcorn pano asa likod nya nga si JLC. Benta talaga. Hindi na nila tinapos yung movie. Para siguro hindi sila pagkaguluhan. Kaya si Sab, malungkot! Hahaha.

Before we entered the cinema pala andun din si Ethel Booba with Alex. Yep, sila ulit! Nyahaha. Andun din si Jen or 26K and PBB with Donnie Geisler. Mga so so lang naman sila so hindi na namin masyadong pinansin. Pero gusto ko magpapic kay Ethel! Hahaha. Sayang!

p.s. i love you

Starring 2-time Oscar winner Hillary Swank and 300 star Gerard Butler. At first I found the set-up odd. Imagine Swank playing romantic, far from her tough gal roles. But after seeing the movie, I finally realized how she got her two Oscars. She's so versatile, may it be as a tomboy, boxer, or even the sensitive girl in this movie. And did I mention that I'm a Lisa Kudrow fan? She's hilarious even when she's serious. And her pick-up lines: Are you married? Are you gay? Are you working? Really worth the laugh.

And I've watched this movie twice already! The first time was unplanned with my officemates. Then nung Saturday eh napilit ulit ng mga kaBeRKS ko. Gastos tuloy hehe. And please, theaters are made for movie-watching and not for socializing and eyeballs. Ang tatanda na sa sinehan pa nag-eyeball! Pucha bwisit na bwisit talaga ako. Magtanungan ba ng mga birthdays at kung ano nangyari sa student nya. There are more appropriate venues for those engagements. At talagang pinili pa nila ang Gateway! What a nightmare! At ang pinakabentang linya nila eh the one referring to Hillary Swank: "Bakla yan hindi yan babae. Tignan mo yung dede nataas lang ng bra! Bakla yan!" Haha. This really made me laugh. Kukunan ko sana ng picture for documentation kaso masyadong madilim. Sayang!

So what did we really do last Saturday???

• met at Trinoma 4 to purchase the kitchen showcase for Intiang & Topz (astig talaga ng electric grill na suggestion ko hehe)
• lunch at Red Ribbon
• delivered the showcase at Quintos St. near España
• kwentuhan at decide kung san manonood (until 5:00pm)
• picture taking sa LRT V. Mapa station
• tambay sa Coffee Bean habang nagkukwento si Char ng kanyang dilemma
• p.s. i love you @ Gateway
• bwisit dun sa 2 matandang nag eyeball sa loob ng sinehan
• dinner sa bagong resto ni Marvin sa Gateway
• uwi na (pagod!)
  

alvin & the chipmunks

Was never a fan of Alvin nor Simon, not even the cute Theodore. But when I saw the trailer and heard their version of Funky Town, I told myself I'm gonna watch this movie. Alone and all, I will watch this movie! And yeah, I watched it by myself at SM Centerpoint! Woohoo, the last time I did this was way back in college. It's not that bad after all. Anyways, back to the movie. It was fun, can't help but laugh. Kasabay ko ba naman puro pamilya na may mga bata! hehe. It was worth the effort. And I bet a better soundtrack.

love is a losing game

Hindi ko alam kung anong pumasok sa utak ko at nagsulat ako ng blog entry sa McDo Quezon Avenue while waiting for Sab. Papunta kasi kami sa kasal ni Intiang and dadaanan nya na lang ako dun. Eh ang tagal so habang nakikinig ako sa album ni Amy Winehouse eh medyo nakarelate ako. Here's the unedited version so pardon the author for the grammatical errors.

As the cliche goes, love is a game that is dangerous to play. But do we always lose in the game of love?! Sometimes, we tend to play it hard that we forget to enjoy the ride. So in the end, due to the fear of losing, we forget that at one point we had won it actually. And by the time we somehow realize it, the ball has already turned. We're back to the losing end. Then we wait for the next player to come. To play the game of love again. That goes on and on until we get tired and prefer to watch on the sidelines.
