Movie Loading

3/10/2009? That was the date when I posted Movie Marathon.. That was a year ago, and whoa, a lot changed when I discovered torrent. I discovered that I can watch movies to my zune rather than using my old DVD portable player which unfortunately, didn't return by somebody.. You can guess who borrowed it. hehe

Anyway, yes, even DYRL is still not finished for 2 weeks now.. I am still getting some movies I haven't watch for quite some time.. Hehe The movies I missed and I thought of watching, out of curiosity I guess..

Why I got so addicted watching movies? Some movies even it's crap, I see it.. Some movies I watch because for dating purposes? hehe Or some movies I watch coz it suits my taste, that will make me think or I felt something about the movie. I felt happy, sad, grossed or even cried.. It depends to the movie itself..

The important about watching movies for me is I'm getting ideas through it. Or most of the time, I'm really surprised about the movie like it happened in my life. Not sci fi movies of course.. Hmmm for example, I just watched High Fidelity and wow, that happened in my life, not exactly but as you see, I had also not top 5, but top 8, 8 ladies. hehe

In movies, it also remove my stress. Like today, I was able to watch 3 movies and my stress of not getting enough sleep went away.. Just like that. hehe

Watching them as well excercises my right to criticize... Yes.. hehe Whether they say it's good to others, but as long it's not good to me, sorry, I'll rant about that movie.

Well, I do think that watching them gives me many ways to view life. Whether it's a sci fi, or comedy or even documentary, it shows me perpectives of life.. We, humans, indeed are creative beings..

The funny thing is now, I haven't watched all the movies I got. hehe Damn, maybe if I did not work, I was able to watch them all. However, I will not earn extra money if I just watch movies all day everyday. hehe

Although I'm quite behind for this, little by little, I'm going to watch them all!!! Especially in Sundays, while waiting for customers, I'll just sit back first and watch..

I want to thank from the bottom of my heart, to my computer!! Without it, well, I will need to go to hidalgo again just to buy those pirated DVD's.. You can't even find the titles you want. I'm glad those days were way over!! hehe

All I need is patience.. For downloading movies, patience is a very important virtue..

And oh of course, some disk space in your computer. hehe And a good dsl connection..

And a good flow of electricity..

And a reliable website as well..

And of course, why should I forgot?

My zune.. hehe

Damn, DYRL status of download is now 94.6% almost complete. Come on, please finish it tonight.. I don't want to wait further. Patience? Yeah after waiting for 2 weeks... I'm running out of patience. hehe

I can say, it will be left behind from the other 6 movies I'm getting. Oh boy!!!

Oh crap...

Shi. Eikichi Onizuka (Great Teacher Onizuka)

Naisip ko paano kung eto ang teacher mo. hehe Kung pasaway ang student, lalo na ang teacher!!! While watching sa youtube and reading in wikipedia about onibaku (Onizuka's former great gang) I wonder, why a certain famous gang leader become a teacher? Yun ang tinatawag na "calling". hehe

Well, I forgot paano ko siya nadiscover besides from Kuya Allan.. Pero ang sure ko naalala eh bumili pa kami ng pirated VCD ng anime series nun sa quiapo. Ganon kami kaaddict sa series na to. hehe Unfortunately, isang anime series na lang siya and wala na siya ka
sunod.. May live action na ok, and the movie? I watched it in star mandarin (star movies na puro asian films, mostly chinese movies) movie, sucked. hehe

I like the character because of his purpose to be a good teacher, teach the kids in a different way. More in life application. Sabagay, di naman siya magaling na teacher technically, ni magbasa nahihirapan siya. hehe

Pero on how he inspire saka antics niya, dun ako natutuwa.. Even yun ginaya niya si Kenshiro in one episode. hehe Or kahit yun first scene niya, timeless, yun hinamon siya ng mga tambay "Who is getting killed? A pervert with a second degree black belt or you guys who unfortunately trying to extort money from me?" (Not in exact subtitle) Ayun, bugbog ang dalawa.hehe

Marami pa astig na episodes dun, actually parang lahat eh. hehe Lalo na yun everytime he helps the student in a different way, parang weird, fun and inspiring.

Ayoko ko lang sa kanya, parang minsan sobra ata o talagang may pagkaungas din talaga. hehe

Cool teacher indeed, I wish there was one teacher like him.. Maybe, I'll never make excuses not to go to school everyday pag yun ang teacher ko. hehe

Siguro pag may ganun na teacher sa totoong buhay, malamang isang quarter lang yun. hehe or isang sem lang dahil sa kalokohan...

However, he is still great. Great because look at him? He is a teacher?!

flashbacks: going home, alone

Up to this moment, I can't believe that I was able to go home at a tender age. Imagine, at 7 years old, from a very far school near SM north up to Project 7, our previous home, I walked home, alone..

That was one simple morning at grade 1, well, as usual, I was brought to school by my brother driving the old blue toyota wagon then regular school day finished. By the way, yes, I did not study at LSQC GS until grade 2, fun fact. hehe Usually I used to be picked up by our tricycle buddy, Manong Philip when I finish my school day.. Like school bus but in a tricycle set up.. hehe I don't know for what reason, he didn't arrive..

Me, maybe I was so impatient at that time, stubborn kid I guess, I decided to walk going home.. So I think at that time, I was indeed stubborn. I did not follow my parents to wait for anyone to pick me up. I went home alone.. Without thinking twice..

Jeez, that was a very hot morning brunch time.. Walking in the dusty busy streets, why I didn't ride a trike? Well, I only have a snoopy lunch box at my hand and my bulky bag. I don't have money at that time.. I guess at that time, I don't even know what is money. hehe Maybe..

Of course, it's not a short walk, you won't believe that I need to walk across edsa.. If you check edsa today, I went across the Shell in Veterans Village entrance from a small market in Bago Bantay.. Dangerous isn't it if I just jaywalked across that wide avenue.. Luckily, I remembered before that day, we studied the traffic signs, like the traffic lights, red is stop, green is go, and good thing, there is some cop who assist me walking across the street. Without those thoughts, I won't be here. Maybe there will be a news in the police report section in TV patrol that same night, kid got hit while walking in Edsa. hehe

I was able to across Edsa with my dear life and went on walking until I reached main street going to our house. To tell you honestly, I am so hungry and tired at that time. Crap.. Well, I still walked hard. hehe

Then when I arrived at our fave bake shop which only sells pandesal and tasty bread, I saw someone running towards me..

It's my beloved dreary Mom.. She was crying at that time and asking me if I'm ok and fine.. Even I looked so pale and tired, I told her, "I'm ok Ma".

I got home, well ate a sumptous lunch and later... got scolded. hehe Mang Philip just went late so I was not able to meet at school..

Lessons learned: Follow your parents and be patient. hehe

For now, I became patient yet sometimes, I don't follow my parents. hehe

When I remember this event, I still can't believe it.. Oh well, I can say being a kid was fun.. Not entirely my childhood memories, but for this one, worth keeping it!

!revival!

Nah, it's not a song from Reality Bites OST. hehe Just today was a revival not only Him but also, and I hope our faith. It was simple yet fulfilling day. Kasi naman, masarap naman yun pahinga ko kahapon tapos etong araw sakto! Walang sabit sa bayad bukas. hehe

Pero yun ibang babayaran, sabit pero pwede naman this week. haha

However, as I write this one, I feel relaxed and get ready for tomorrow. Problem lang, hmmm besides sa mga bills and expenses eh I don't know what to do. Sa dami kong gagawin, di ko na alam ang gagawin. hehe Well, siguro may mga naayos na for the past holy week pero kulang pa din ang time. Sana mahaba yun bakasyon.. hehe

Although one stuck in my mind, next year, my situation should be different. Less problems and more rest. Effective and efficient worker and as a good businessman at the same time. I hope so. hehe I dream as well, just finish all of these struggles and I'm going to be so much happy. At least..

Oh crap, isang linggo na di ko pa nakukukha yun DYRL!!! Kaunti lang kasi yun seed. Pest. hehe

Pero yun fist of the north star, ayos, so nostalgic. hehe Parang VHS lang. Kaso ang tagal iconvert..

Speaking of revival, let's revive some memories this week. Yes, may naisip na ko around two topics about that. Then, what else? Fixing my stats and preparing for the weekend. I know upfront, I'll be having a busy, a tight weekend. Jeez, pwede na ba magVL ng isang linggo? hahaha AWOL kaya? hahaha

Revive those HS days na kaunti sakit ng ulo at ubo, Ma di na ko pasok. Tapos pag papasok next day, pagawa ng excuse letter. Lusot! hehe Sa college, di ako ganun, may inspiration eh. Hiyee. hehe

Crap those days..

I don't know how I got motivated for finish the tasks. Maybe I'm that kind of person, just finish it so you can rest later. Fast.

Let's just hope that everything will be fine this week. Keep the faith burning..

But what irritates me? Eto, pag daan ko sa church, grabe, pagbungad pa lang, naririnig ko na yun mga jingle ng candidates. Grabe, walang patawad. hehe Sana matalo sila!!!!

Pero may funny side naman. After going to the easter mass, while going home, I saw a streamer of a candidate..

It says below..

"Parang awa niyo na!!
for councilor!!"

I don't know with that dude, that sounds to me desperation..

Damn, the reason was well he lost 3 years ago. Poor dude, lalo ko siya di iboboto.

Unfortunately, there are many dudes like him will end up losing.

Like I said, let the carnival begins!!! Ah fiesta na din.

Widening

Yes, sana dumami pa ang alam ko words to put here. hehe To free further my mind na gumamit pa ng maraming words, napansin ko kasi, yun ibang salita na ginagamit ko paulit ulit. Marked down sa QA. Peste naman. hehe

I should really start reading books, more of them..

Anyway, other than that wala naman ako pa ilalagay here except for what? Hmmm wala pang bago. Mabuti pala at nagbukas ako shop today, nakabenta naman kahit papano. hehe

This coming week, sana malakas naman ang tindahan. Tapos siyempre sa work, sana makuha ko na o matuto na ko sa ops para madali ang buhay sa work. hehe Para makatulong na sa team. Nahihirapan lang ako sa pagpasok, lalo na araw-araw ang palit ng sked, well di naman malaki pagitan pero siyempre iba iba din ang gising mo di ba?

Well, kaya ko naman yun.. hehe Next week no more rants here about those things. I wish!!!

Thanks to the holy week pala, I was also widen my perpective na din. Nakapahinga tapos mga planning na din. Targets to reach this month and sa bilis ng panahon, 1 year na ang shop sa welcome!! Akalain mo, kala ko di tatagal pero eto, nakasurvive naman. hehe

Thanks to him, good thing, he will rise up tomorrow. I hope all of us, will rise up from whatever challenges we are into.. Stand up and be free..

Ano pa ba.. Ah!!! Mabuti tapos na ang month of March. hehe Sa totoo lang, very weird lagi ang month na yun sa kin. Parang tradition na sa buhay ko. Ewan ko. Marami lang ako naalala siguro pag March. Mabuti at April na.. Moving on and do what you need to do. hehe

May is approaching.. Don't ask me who am I going to vote.. Oh please, yun pangasar sa kin, si Noy daw.. Naman, di naman sa naasar ako, pero di ko siya iboboto. Bakit? Til next month. hehe Who am I going to waste my vote? You'll see. Pero last time si Bro. Eddie kaso oh well, he didn't won, he end around 3rd or 4th place.

What I can advice for those voters? Please vote the right leader. A leader na di lang mabait o sobrang galing, o di kaya malapit sa tao. A leader who will inspire us to do what is right. A leader by example, and with efficiency and effective as well. If we can have a Cory like attitude tapos strong will like Marcos as our new president, sa tingin ko, di ganito ang Pilipinas. Way better than this. Or even our neighbors.

Kaso hindi.. Especially these past years.. Ok lang na medyo inuuna yun sarili paminsan minsan, pero hindi eh. Ako muna bago sila. Ayos, that's our public service. Great. Because of that, we became one of the most corrupt countries. Nice..

Just vote wisely. Widen your options, besides it's for our country, meaning, for all of us..

For the next 3-6 years. .

...streaming...

I can't believe na this Good Friday eh simple pero masaya at enriching din.. Kasi nakapagpahinga at ayun, kahit papano bisita sa Lourdes kaninang umaga. A spiritual excercise..

Tinatamad na nga ako magbukas ng shop bukas. hehe Pero sayang ang benta, malay mo makatsamba...

Nakapila ako sa confession kanina, parang may nawala na bigat sa puso ko. Siguro sa mga kasalanan nagawa ko saka yun guide na din sa taas, thanks for the rest today and I was able to contemplate the day today.. Reflecting na din about sa life which di ko natapos, pero sana bukas eh may plan na din. Not major changes, mga slight lang.

To really understand good friday, I watched The Passion of the Christ by Mel Gibson.

I can say na yun ang the best work ni Gibson, I mean sobrang touching, and it's true, napaiyak ako, especially to some scenes. Grabe.. Come to think of it what Jesus went through, I mean, sobra sa sacrifice ang ginawa niya sa tin. For all of us. Kakalungkot lang talaga..

Mabuti maganda yun ending. As we all know it di ba. hehe One of the best films.. Simply great..

Then to lighten the day, I watched Little Miss Sunshine, a dark family comedy.. Ok din and that's why Alan Arkin won, great performance even in a short time... Abigail Breslin, great, how come she grows so fast at Zombieland? hehe

Tapos, Yes Man!!! Jim Carrey, offball character, but it's a great comedy movie. Like Raims said, a feel good movie.. Then last show for the day, 500 days of summer.. Siyempre Zooey Deschanel from yes man I thought of, well watch this film..

Indie film with the Cobra Commander dude from GI Joe.. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and what I can say.. Good movie but I just hate Summer. Damn!!! hehe Parang may kaugali siya.. hmmmmmmmm

Anyhow, that's how simple it is today. Pero sobrang relax and happy to spend time with him, more than usual. Siguro pag VL ko, sana ganito lang ang araw. Kaso ang problema, wala pa VL, mahirap magplot. hehe

Ang di ko lang malimutan today eh yun passion of Christ. It's so moving, parang teka, sana lahat ng tao make some sacrifices to change, or even repent.. Ika nga ng pari kanina, be an instrument of peace, love and evident of his teaching. Ang hirap naman nun di ba... Pero as long as you ask help from him, nothing to worry about.. Dun muna ako siguro magstart to strengthen the relationship with God, leave the worries or troubles, especially the big ones.. To him.. Don't rely so much to your own strength.

Ask help and he will lighten you up..

Say Yes to him!!!

Oh not what Jim Carrey did.

Say yes to everything? Dangerous.. hehe

realizations (part 12)

186. As I ask through Him a question, he gave me a clever answer.

187. Malaking tulong pala, for these past 5 years, the first thing you do in the morning is pray..

188. Yes, sometimes, di maiwasan na bakit ganun.. Why he's cruel and sort of. Parang pinabayaan na tayo.. It is hard yet, it is a test of faith to him..

189. Even my life is kinda difficult, he eases the burden, every moment.

190. I'm not sure if I always do the right thing.. Because I trust in him in every thing I do.. especially for those things that I can't do it..

191. Sa dami nangyari sa buhay eh, malaking pasalamat ko kay God, always giving me a chance.

192. I know I have a long way to fulfill whatever purpose of my life is..

193. this is the only time I wrote about my faith.. It's just never withers away.. Hope is my guiding light.

194. tama, eto lang ang oras na nakapagsulat ako tungkol dito, pero sa totoo, lagi nasa buhay ko na to.. hehe

195. I hope all of us, whoever or whatever you're praying for, or whose faith are you.. live in a peaceful and meaningful life.

196. sacrifices are done sometimes, especially to the one you love.. Like what he did to all of us..
