Fast and Furious 7

Absurd right? I never thought that after watching that first film in my college years, there will be 7 films about cars and dudes working in and out law who loves it. 

Anyway, I still watched it. I can say that this is a bit better than the action packed previous one. Simply as that. 

Let's check the negatives first about the movie! First, I did not l ike the last action sequence. Sorry for the spoilers, I mean why with all that ruckus, no army or military came right away for rescue? Cops can't do that alone. Geez. Absurd premise indeed, for now, I just don't like the drone aspect used in films. Even in these new films. Drones are dangerous, and I just don't like the aspect of it for now.

They also, used heavily to special effects. Despite it's not obvious at most of the film, or even with Paul's double, I felt unnatural even at those car chases. Even that bus stunt, I just felt it has more special/visual effects. Another thing, I also did not like well, short scenes of the Rock and Jason Statham. What worse, Jason did not die! I still feel, the brothers will be back at the last 3 films. Crap. hehe

Well, the great parts, one is the insane car halo drop scene. I mean, that tops the tank scene. hahaha I can't believe how they looked real but definitely that is fine with me. And that Dubai sequence, on the top crazy!!! I don't like that supercar though. But I love that sequence, the scene shows bugatti. I also, love the cast, well except for the short cameo of the fast 3 members. But the cast just made perfect for this film, even with the short time of the Rock and Stat. I just hope that they had more action fights than car chases or balance perhaps. Tony Jaa's appearance kinda short. hahaha

Another thing, Paul Walker's memoir is great. I mean they did not kill his character off then that last scene was really a great send off to him. I don't know what will happen at the next films without him but I know they are able to think about it. 

I also love how they able to mask Paul disappearance in some scenes. I don't know which one scene is that anyway. But great job, so those things made this one better than last one. But I'm looking forward to the next and last 3 films if that's the case. 

Their lives are like racing in a quarter mile, isn't it? I hope they see the finish line with 10 films.

Public Service: How to get a SSS ID.

Hay mabuti naman nabago na nila sistema ng ID, at good looking. Yun lang, mabigat sa bulsa. hehe Naabutan ko pa yun old process na kailangan pumunta ng maaga tapos may limit lang ang pakuha. Kung di ka pa malas, sa main branch ka pa magpapakuha ng litrato. Mabuti na lang maayos pa yun kuhanan dito malapit sa amin. hehe 

Well, hanggang ngayon nagagamit ko pa yun old ID at nakatago lang yun bagong ID. Not bad yun bagong ID, mukhang lisensya, at pwede pala integrate yun HDMF details parang isang ID lang. Actually, wala naman pinagiba sa bagong ID, ibig ko sabihin sa steps. Ang maganda nga, dahil Philpost na yun nagpipicture eh kahit saang SSS office pwede magpacapture ng picture.

Ang problema lang, eh pag magapply ng ID, fill out ng form tapos pakita yun E1 ata. Yun pink form.. Ok lang yun, pero ang ayoko, pag may lumang ID ka, kailangan surrender mo yun luma! Noong una ako naginquire, grabe, parang nagdalawang isip ako. Paano kasi, ang hirap ko kunin ang dating ID tapos, isurrender lang. Grabe.. So, may suggest itong officer na pinagtanungan ko.. Pag may affidavit of loss daw, pwede na.

Eh dahil mahal ko yun ID ko, at dahil naisip ko kung gaano ko nahirapan kumuha... Eh, kumuha ako ng affidavit at nagapply na ng bagong ID. Wag tularan! hahahaha Fill out ng form, tapos wala naman pila at picture na. Kailangan nakacolar. At higit sa lahat, 300 lang. Sa kin 400 ginastos ko. hehe At least, dalawa naman ID ko.

Papadala na lang sa regular mail yun ID at nakuha ko naman after 2-3 months at nung nakita ko na, ang ganda! Kaya nakatago lang siya. At dala ko lagi yun SSS ID na luma for reference purposes. Sulit! Well, kahit mawala yun luma, ok lang. Pero ayoko mangyari yun for now. hahaha 

Simple lang ang steps, medyo gagastos lang talaga at sulit pag nakuha ang ID. Nasa iyo na lang kung gagaya sa kin. =)

unplanned 62

Dapat kahapon pa ko nagsulat but due to some tiring and messed up circumstances, I crammed. Procrastinate. For short, tinamad. 

I can't laugh or even have fun until this moment. Sabihin na natin na talagang I just want to get away or something... But I can't. Ni di nga ko nakapagouting dahil well, may bantay at ayun pa, kailangan gawin. It's sad pero ok lang naman ko. Either way, ok lang.

For now, mabuti na lang maluwag ang kwarto ko pero napakainit. Nakakabwisit na init, summer time na nga. hahaha Medyo nakakatawa na ko. For the past weeks, pasaway ako, pero buenas pa din. Masaya pa din. Yun next post ko malalaman niyo kung bakit. Etong 2nd quarter na to na start, medyo shaky pero ginagawa ko na nang paraan. It's really hard to adjust when you have pressures from home to work then vice versa. Everyday.. Iniisip ko at ramdam ko na parang kulang ang 2 days off. 

I'm quite pessimist these days even I shouldn't be. Ewan ko ba. I don't know what will make me motivated or happy now. I thought mabuti to shun away some things or let's say bawasan, like internet or DOTA or even fret about Gerro or other things. Dagdag mo pa ang mainit na panahon. If there is a reset button, that will be great! Or parang refresh cache. But in real life wala naman yun. Prayers can do much, or faith. Hope can give light but hanggang dun lang. Love can only decrease yun lungkot or let's say it really keeps me going such.

I felt, I just want to stay in my room or in a place na for a time na walang kasama or kung mayroon man siguro just a good time. Dun papasok sana ang friends but well, they have their own lives now. I'm doing all my own. It's sad, gloomy and depressing. I'm surprised I can still put a smile on my face. Indeed.

Anyway, I don't look forward sa NBA until playoffs starts. I hope ROS will win sa finals. Ah, to finish this long week ahead of me from work and home. Ah, eto, continue writing. Writing. And more writing. 

Maybe I just need a second look at myself. Kung ano mayroon ako, at ano yun nangyayari sa kin, siguro, unti unti ko baguhin sarili ko. View kung baga. But I'm tired of it. I have a week to think about this, I've thinking a lot this time, siguro ang mabuti eh, isama na ang puso. 

Heart, what I feel, what I want to happen, or result sa ganitong situation. I keep using my stubborn head a lot but not my heart is. But siguro, I have some fears to have my heart works than my head. It produced well, great results but some worst results. 

Mind and Heart. Maybe, this week, I try to balance them both. A peaceful mind and a happy heart. 

Mahirap, pero kung eto lang ang way, para kahit papano, maka move on and do a lot, I can do things. I can move something and more important.. 

I can control myself like I want to. In the best way I can. For the benefit to those around me. For Him. Maybe I should just keep it slow nga. I don't know, but I just want to be effective in a lot of things, kung baga, may silbi especially at this age. Darn, kala ko age is just a number. Parang di ata sa ngayon. hahaha

Parang nung sinusulat ko yun, mukhang nakuha ko na at least isang sagot sa mga tanong bumabagabag sa akin. Napakahirap na tagalog.

Diyos miyo. =)

What if..

(I have my own car)

Oo nga pala, nasulat ko na dati na may lisensya ako pero di na ko marunong magdrive. Nakakatakot pa, yun huling nagturo sa kin na magdrive eh nasa langit na. Sumalangit nawa siya. 

Paano kaya, may kotse ako? Simple lang, pero siyempre yun less ang sira, at siguro diesel para mura gasolina. Besides, I'm not really going out much. Lalo na ngayon,  napakatrapik. Kung kailan tumanda ako, aba tumitindi ang trapik. Parang ok magkotse pag malapit or sobrang layo ng pupuntahan. Pero kung kaya iFX or kung alam mo lagi trapik, parang mas ok pa macommute. Lalo na sa mga panahon ngayon, dami pa inaayos na daan, at malas malas, walang kwenta MRT.

Magkotse ako, hmmmm gabi siguro para madali magdrive. hehe Or sobrang maaga. Pag may gimik siguro, malamang dala ako kotse gaya ng nood ng sine or pag outing. Maganda nga pag crosswind para marami makasakay. hehe Or kung pang date, BMW. hahaha Dahil di naman maganda mga kalsada, ok na yun mga di masyado mahal na kotse. Kasi pag mamahalin, grabe, masisira ang kotse mo dahil sa dami ng lubak. 

Paano kaya pag bad trip, malamang mang trip ako lumabas sandali nakakotse, going nowhere for a while tapos uwi. Kaso, naisip ko din di ko gawin kasi nakakatamad magdrive, unless maganda sound system. Kaso dahil mahal ang gas, kahit diesel pa, aba mahal lumabas. hehe Tipid tipid din. 

What kind of car I like? Hmmmm basta BMW or if I'm super rich, Porsche. haha Billionaire, hmmm Zonda or Bugatti. Pesteng top gear yun, kaya ako naddik sa dalawang kotseng yun. Actually may iba pa, kaso hahaba lang ang post na ito. hehe

Kahit sedan or second hand, as long it runs, less maintenance, or manageable at great sound system. Yun ang kotse idrive ko. I just don't know when in this lifetime. hahaha Ah yes, di naman harurot agad o full speed, defensive driving na lang. Safe and sound na lang, wala naman ako need for speed unlike others. Unless kung malalate na ko. hehe

Places to go.. Somewhere less or no buildiings. Para maiba scenery. Probinsya malamang pero wag naman malayo, yun mga tipong 8 oras ka magdrive. hahaha

If I have my first car, color black or blue. Important. hehe Napapahingal na lang ako pag naiisip ko yun, sana nga makadrive ako isa..

Even once.. Alone or with somebody..

Conversion to Light

Infinite darkness will succumb by a ray of light. Light shows as hope. Hope brings faith.. Faith becomes Love. Weird logic right? I can't imagine I always think that all the time but maybe it's not going inside me. Deeply.

For sure, I should be mature enough but it's just, the hardest obstacles are now here. I need maybe more than those values I mentioned above. Or even sheer will. Or motivational speeches. Or even great readings. 

I know why I'm like this, damn age. I'm becoming more bitter and most of all, envy which I don't really feel before. As you age, wisdom becomes a lot yet, some dark force also grows. Going from the past, or worse, regrets. I know and admit I haven't reach a lot after a decade from graduation, and add to that pressure from my home, I don't know what to do. I also thought, better end up dead. 

But as years goes by, a mysterious force or presence that always come to rescue me. It is always him. Jesus there to save me. Always. But I don't go further than that. Maybe I look back at him after he saves me, like those one of the lepers he healed. Out of the ten he healed, only one returned, the nine just left. I'm one of those who left. Yes, despite that gospel did not really say those nine are selfish, but of course, if you look at that context, well.. I understand that Jesus did not judge those nine, but when those nine left, I knew they felt the guilt of not being grateful or even thank Him. 

It also did not say if they converted as well. I always hear even straight from Him that after he forgives, he says sin no more. That second line really I fail.. It's simply convesion yet I fail. I failed many times. 

Now, I can do is different. Instead of focusing so much on every thought or action I do or even doing promises, what I do.. I'll do something else. What I will do are well.. First, do a lot of things. Maybe, I always think I'm sick which I'm not anymore. Do a lot of things, like what I'm doing now. Another, to refresh other people to refresh one's self. It's weird but despite, I'll get tired, I will do my best to focus maybe or even tiring help the people around me and others. Serving Him, at least paying back his love for me for all this time. I know that not even one person can pay him back what love he gave to us. 

Well, it's better to do it and I know he'll be fine with it up there. 

Now, despite I have an afraid heart, I should convert into a brave one. To embrace change, and most of all, optimistic despite odds. Despite doubt, and even defeat. Always look forward a new day ahead! Don't forget, of course, I have one beside, the one who keeps me going..

Till the end. Whether it's a success or failure. I know the best thing to do, is to give your best. Try as well..

I know this will be a long process of reconciliation, I admit it, going to conversion and the last thing, a bit easier than conversion.. 

Commission. I want to be at that state. =)

Reflecting into the Abyss

I don't know but I'm quite relieved and thought stupid within the course of the Holy Week. After such contemplating and stuff, I'm now in an abyss.. 

I'm in a state of confusion as some of my other matters settled. Maybe as I reach that position of making it through, I fall again into that abyss.. I don't know why is this happening or what. Maybe some things, old ways doesn't seems to go away. It's sad for me, and due to some pressures I face, I'm kinda down at moment. 

Anyway, I admit, those old ways, darn JAV.. Can't get over that addiction. Despite it's one of the reasons I love Nippon, it's still causing me such guilt and yes, into sin. I don't know what to do get over with it, even after Holy Week or maybe I'm sick or stressed out despite I had a great rest. Honestly, I'm really tired after those years of watching it but when that moment comes, I feel such satisfied. After that, yes, crappy feeling. 

Confusing isn't it? But after hearing that message for the past week.. I know that Jesus, has plans already. Even in this state, or before.. I believe in his words, he doesn't look at my past or even my sins. It means, he'll always be there. Always..

It's up to me, to go forward and be renewed. I don't know how or if that's is possible. But I should never doubt from this moment forward, what he can do for me. I'm anxious, or even paranoid, but what less support I got outside, of course people are getting busy left and right... Less comfort I can get from others at this point yet, well... I have no choice but for now, I know I might sound selfish or self contained.. It's time for me, to have courage and be renewed!

Conversion!
