Those years... Four long years..
I can't believe first na aabot na apat na taon ang blog ko.. I was suprised that after I reduced my monthly posts and keeping some themes or topics, still.. Matiyaga pa din ako.
Even I haven't got any recognition of sorts or monetary reward, but that's fine. Di ko naman target yun even before.. This one was made just to really express myself and yes, to control whatever within those emotions.
Kahit yun isang friend ko nagulat that it's been a while I have this, I just tell, it's fun and it helps a lot..
From planning my life ahead..
From telling what I have in mind..
From telling what I feel from my heart..
From the failures and frustrations I experienced..
From enjoying what I love or like in life..
From looking back those years, and moving forward for the better..
Eventually, I became more determined na to keep this one, unless something happens to me or someone wants me to stop. Which I doubt nobody tried. =)
Nung check ko yun stats ko, aba, somebody from the US, UK, and yes, Russia.. Do Russians speak tagalog? hehe Kakatuwa lang na other countries whether they are bots, or real person.. Even those who might get confused or did not understand much about my blog.. That's fine, thanks for visiting!
Of course, may mga changes naman ako gagawin sa blog.. But not that drastic change. More topics to discuss and most of all, some themes that I may release na makacapture na maraming readers.. I haven't write the big ones yet. hehe
All I can say, wait until the end of the year for those topics.. At least one or two, may lalabas dito. hehe
I'm planning to release another blog but not the same style, it will be totally different one. Actually I don't know if its still a blog, pero basta nakapost lang siya.. I'm looking for a better blog site than blogger.
By the way, thanks for Multiply, kahit parang kaunti na lang pumunta sa kanila, ako loyal poster niyo diyan. Blogger for keeping my blogsite up and running.. Thanks! FB for well, kahit tinanggal na yun mirror blog eh sige, pwede na through posts or notes na lang.
For now, I just want to cherish for this milestone of having one thing that I love to do.. Neither compensated nor recognize..
I am still going to write whatever I want to.. Express my shadow in this infinite space of emotions and imagination..
If I have some haters, well.. Thanks, still.. Just say what you want.. Don't hide it from me.. If there's any..
Four years, whew..
How long I'll be writing in this wordpad?

Not Showing: Shame
Your life is fun, having a great job.. Your also in the top of your game, good looking and yes, you can dig girls left and right.. Then you have also a secret part of you.. Addicted to well.. Sex.
All of the sudden, it was changed when your pesky sister came and try to ask for help. But you won't mind, just try to enjoy life, love life and don't care everything around you.
That's the simple story of Shame.. Simple but as the story goes along, the problem of her sister goes along, the addiction getting deeper and eating himself alive.. Bad factors first.. First, hmmm the first 40 mins was bit a lag.. Although not that boring.. It was just slow.. There were scenes that great at those 40 mins but some of it, just simply paced. Another one, although it's indeed included in the film.. The sex scenes, they are strong one. That's why, it won't definitely show it here.
Those scenes are quite let me say, intense. Short but intense, but the last 2 scenes.. Shocking and the last one, porn like. Damn but when that last shot of that last sex scene, you can feel his emotion of being trapped.. Being in disgust for himself..
Well, although it is not really a flaw or a problem, I was surprised that this film has few lines.. Except for two or three scenes, but yeah I was shocked, it has very few lines.. It is a gamble because some people or critics got bored but because of the performances.. Nah.. It's not a big deal.
Great things!!! One is yeah.. Although the ending is really a cliff hanger, what I like about the film is the length of it.. Just enough for the pace, everything, the story about the film. It's not short nor long.. Just right.. Some drama flicks, are just so long.. Or others short but lack of details. Two, hmmmm director!!! Steve Mcqueen, not the moviestar, another great film directed by him.. After hunger, this is better.. Hunger was a political movie.. This is just pure art, tension, depression and love.. I hope he'll do more films, whether it's drama or period films.. He's a great one.
Three, soundtrack, including the great jazz singing by Carey.. Eventually it has only few tracks, but I love the music used for the film, especially the one used in the trailer and in the last parts of the film.. The mood of the film, fits with it's quite orchestra sound. Except perhaps that blondie song. =)
Four, the simple plot of the story.. I mean, yeah at first you think it's fun to be addicted to sex but as the plot goes on and by Brandon's actions, he felt becoming trapped and tired of it. Then his pesky sister come in, simply wants help but he always felt his sis just giving him headache everytime she stays in the house.. I love the pace as well, slowly but surely comes into the interesting climax.
Lastly, the reason why critics alike and me, enjoyed so much this film.. The great performances by Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan. Damn, even the partners of Mike are good actors, I mean I was surprised according to imdb, theater actresses but they look good, especially the lady in the train.. Even the boss of Brandon is good, he got lucky kissing Carey. Brandon is Mike's character, Carey's name is Sissy. I love even with less lines, the deep acting they did. Like for Carey, even she has only have minutes in the film, but important minutes for her.. A shocking intro from her until the end.. Great performance! An oscar worthy perhaps but crowded with the Help cast. That's fine, she done a magnificent job.. Like I said I hope she can try a singing career, jazz is better for her.
Michael Fassbender.. The first time I saw him was in Inglorious Basterds, although he was killed in a unlucky way.. I was carried away by his presence and acting even in a short time.. Except for Jonah Hex. =) Then Hunger, Jane Eyre, Haywire, and XMen first class.. But all of those will be thrown away because of this performance. I was surprised that almost all the award giving bodies last year gave him a nomination except for Oscar's which.. I hope he is indeed due. If not for this performance, maybe next time.. But this is his best performance.. :)
From the opening scene, until the scenes for his job, then yes those scenes, the scene where he cried for the song.. Then, the scenes where he is depressed and confused what to do. The scenes, that he throw away all the stuff, even his laptop.. The date he made for the night.. Even in few lines.. But he done magnicifently through actions.. I love what he did when he saved Sissy and cried in the end.. He is also vain, as shown how he fix his apartment.
The ending left hanging, but I guess.. He changed already because of the chain of events.. There were scenes I was shocked, like damn.. He kissed a dude and yes.. Great director, there was a scene like I'm watching in irreversible. I admit, that this film almost shows my addiction.. Not sex but like I admit before, porn.. Geez.. He perfectly shown that addiction..
I forgot, damn, great accents!!! They sounds like they just live in New York.. And yes, I was convinced they're siblings.. How about a film that they are lovers? =)
Eventually, I hope CBCP will allow to show this but well.. That's impossible.. Especially with those scenes? The film will be not that good if they cut a lot of scenes or even words.
For women, and for those who have a huge crush to Michael Fassbender, they will be delighted, happy and I won't be surprised, fantasize hm.. =) I compare this film, another underrated and great film american psycho.. But that one is scary, this one is depressing yet good open ending.
Last 2 weeks ago, I heard about healing your shame.. The best way to really check out..
Watch this one, how shame will destroy you..

broken lines (collection 23)
Bawa't sandali ako'y napapakali,
mga bagay na kailangan ipagmadali.
Sa huli, ito'y pala ay pagkakamali,
dapat pala'y itong isana sangtabi..
Ipinagtatanto ko kung kailan ako makakabawi,
sa pagkakataon ako'y naging sawi.
Sa mga panahon na ako'y wagi kaso ilang sandali,
paano ko mararating ang pagwagi palagi!!
Alam ko nasa akin ang oras, gamit at kakayahan,
pero di ko magamit sa tamang paraan.
Salamat sa kanya, ako'y nagkaroon na malinaw na daan.
Mga bagong ideya para sa magandang kinabukasan.
Sa isip, salita at gawa, kailangan ipakita ang galing,
kulang ang likas na kakayahan at mag magaling.
Ang totoong tagumpay ay nasa gawa na di mo na kailangan gumawa pa,
ng mga aksyon na galing sa kabilang kapwa.
Isipin mo ito'y isang pahapyaw na memorya,
laging nasa aking ideolohika at panata.
Ako'y di susuko at mananatiling pupunta,
sulong sa isang maayos at magandang kabanata.

Dapat broken lines to, kaso mamaya na lang. hehe
Well, gaya ng hula ko eh ganun talaga sa AI.. Basta kano, gwapo o maganda, kaunting talent.. Pwede na.. Pero at least, may pinamtapat tayo sa kanila na matindi.. Thanks Jessica!
Sa NBA, ayun, hintayin ko na lang yun west finals.. Mas maganda yun laban at malamang, kung sino manalo dito, siya na ang NBA champ!!! hehe Malas talaga ng East, lahat ng magaling na player, nainjure.. It's a combination of luck and bad luck.
About training, all I can say.. I'm enjoying it kahit medyo boring na at dragging.. At yes, there are other options pa available.. I've discovered that mas malala pa pala sa parlance at HSBC those past years.. Not the account, but as a whole.. Damn.
Ang bilis naman matapos ng May, looking forward again for June.. The birthday month. I don't know what to expect pero breakthrough sana at masaya lang this coming month. I'm happy for one gadget I got, kaso di ko na fully utilize because of my pathetic sked and yes.. Gusto ko na talaga manood ng mga collection ko. Hehe How about my computer, I hope this year, talagang mapalitan na. Nainggit tuloy ako sa mga computer shop.. Sarap maglaro ulit ng warcraft 3 and yes, bigger storage, faster systems na..
Yeah, I haven't been this less stressful for the past months. Although may mga pinagdaanan ako faults or mistakes, ok lang, just rise up, get up and move forward.
I have great things to do for this blog this year.. Biglang naisip ko while riding the MRT and thinking the past years.. One thing na di ko pa nareveal.. Baka controversial of sorts kasi it may include some information that others might not accept.. Just wait for that posts.. =)
Yes, another blog na gagawin ko.. Definitely, di na sa blogger.. Maiba naman, to reach out the farther regions of earth. hehe At ibang style naman, actually.. Talagang iba to.. Matagal na kasi ko to naisip at laging nasa imagination ko. Tsambahan na lang kung may makapansin. hehe =(
Mukhang hirap ako sa dalawang posts na gagawin ko.. One is really I haven't done for sometime.. Other, it's just bahala na.. Panoorin ko na lang!! hehe Speaking of napanood, great thing nakita ko one Docu last Saturday about autism.. Nainspire ako sa isang case na nakakapagwork siya sa Jollibee ha, kahit part time.. Sabi ko sana matrain si Algerro ng ganun.. =( Luckily, may place for that school with therapy and training so for Algerro's case.. There is hope na maging more productive siya..
These days, many temptations are really swirling around me, but I know where to cling on.. And some added weapons, malalampasan ko sila.
I just realized, I need to get talaga an external HDD.. Mahina, 2TB!!! It will help a lot not only for my safe keeping, but also to have a duplicate of my collection.. Mga epektos kung baga.. Dumadami na sila at nakakalungkot..
Di ko pa sila mapanood lahat. Hahaha I'm not targeting to finish all of them this year.. Basta dapat masimulan ko na panoorin sila..
At oo, kailangan ko na talaga ng new computer.. I wish.. hehe
For now.. Dito na lang muna, inaantok pa ko. Kinapos ako ng isang draft for today.. Di bale, bawi ako bukas!! Isa na lang naman yun, yun isa, madali na once I watched that freaking film this week. hehe That film kasi.. It quite mirrors.. Ano ba. Something in the past..
That now bit by bit going through, and escaping from it.. Whew. Not that act but a certain part or shadow.. A part of my attitude.
Anyway, tama na nga.. Time to go to work and sleep!!! =)

classics: Blade Runner
One of the weird titles I encountered in a movie.. Well, most of the Sci-Fi flicks have weird title yet they have sense.. This one, it's just well.. Quite loose end.
However, after watching this especially the director's cut, I can say, I'm craving for more or if not, I'll watch this all over again. Great news that Ridley Scott and the original writer of this film are back to make a sensible sequel for this film, almost 30 years later.. I hope they are really into it.
Story, quite simple.. It looks complicated but it has really a simple story. Former blade runner Deckard, by the way blade runner refers as someone chasing replicants (androids in human form), former cop. He was task to do a job which he needs to hunt down 4 replicants as they escaped and wants to meet their maker.
Of course, as for the long chase, the leader Roy Batty met his maker, killed him and Deckard able to meet Roy for a final match.. Deckard met Rachel along the way, one of the recent replicants made by Tyrell corporation who has a new skill.. Memories.
Deckard and Rachel escaped as cops tried to apprehend Rachel due to this new skill.. That's it.. Sorry for the poor story telling. =)
Anyway, the only mishap for the film is... It's hard to think any faults of it, ah only one thing but not really a big deal or minor flaw.. It's very dark! Dark lightning, no scenes that was done in a day.. It has few but not in general, it was done in so much darkness maybe because time is not really on the side of Deckard and yes, Rachel.
Great things!!! One, Director and his magnificent crew! Ridley Scott, wow.. I mean I watched most of his films, he tried to persuade to different genre which I know it is good. But some of his films, just can't seem to work out. But when he goes to Sci-Fi, he's at par with Steven or George.. Damn.. That's why I can't wait for Prometheus.
For this one, perfectly done, the pace was great.. The overall tone is magnificent, that's why other films or even anime claims this film as a great blueprint of the future world. I mean, except for the flying cars or space stations in Mars.. But for this one, it's almost realistic and close to real world. You add that replicant element, why not? It maybe done in soonest time, especially us humans has an unquenching thirst for advancement in science..
I love how the set up he made, and the role he given to all the actors.. Even James Olmos which I want to have an assistant like him.. Reliable one. =)
Second, the special effects, when this was made, it's beyond the years. I know if you compare that to these times, it's crappy. But, well.. I love how it was shown at that movie, detailed effects like the gadget used to detect a replicant.. Then they flying cars and future set up of LA, all are just simply amazing display of futuristic world. How about, one of the beautiful characters I saw in movies.. Rachel! I love that 50's look in a future time setting.. Sigh....
Third, action and actors! Definitely, I know it has few action scenes but it's simple and really wanting to know more about it. I love the chase scenes and yes, the final meet by Roy and Deckard. Actors, simply.. Well, captivating!! This is my favorite Harrison Ford movie.. I thought it's Indiana Jones, but well.. I just saw the best of him here in this film.. Great acting, a role fit for him. Sean Young, yeah.. Great lady through Rachel.. Rutger Hauer!! Perfect role for him, one of the best villains in a film or scifi flick.. Edward James Olmos, I did not recognize him at this movie.. Even Dr. Tyrell, wow.. Great lines delivered by everybody in this film.. Deep and complicated.. That's why this film should really have a follow up, can be a prequel or sequel.. They made the first choice, and that will be sequel!!! How about Daryl Hannah and the other chick.. Geez, beautiful women as well..
I can't believe that Bubblegum crisis anime, they really came an idea to make an anime out of Blade Runner.. Especially Priss!!! =)
Fourth and last! Great film comes with great music! No songs for this film but really great OST, especially the first music at first and the one at the end and credits.. Great fit for the film and that's why I'm hearing that sound in ads or some TV shows or other films before.. Geez..
I hope for the sequel, they will do the same mood but with an interesting plot and yes, great stars to portray in this film.. Others are easy to fill, especially for Rachel.. But one character will be hard to fill in.. Deckard of course! Even Harrison doesn't want to involve again in this Blood Runner..
Why Harrison and Mel Gibson in Mad Max doesn't want to really recognize their roles? I mean, it's like everytime they interviewed about these films, they simply have a bad mouth about it or just somehow regret doing this film. Geez, without these films, they won't be famous as they are today.. They should at least proud of it, you know..
There are many lines I love in this film, here's one of them..
Deckard: Replicants are like any other machine - they're either a benefit or a hazard. If they're a benefit, it's not my problem.
However, after watching this especially the director's cut, I can say, I'm craving for more or if not, I'll watch this all over again.

Why Harrison and Mel Gibson in Mad Max doesn't want to really recognize their roles? I mean, it's like everytime they interviewed about these films, they simply have a bad mouth about it or just somehow regret doing this film. Geez, without these films, they won't be famous as they are today.. They should at least proud of it, you know..
There are many lines I love in this film, here's one of them..
Deckard: Replicants are like any other machine - they're either a benefit or a hazard. If they're a benefit, it's not my problem.
Kung Ako'y Isang..
(singer)
I still hope that Jessica Sanchez will win this coming Thursday, Wednesday time in US. However, like I predict, eh kung kalaban niya eh si Phillip, naku, small chance lang tayo manalo kasi.. They vote kung sino talaga maganda sa stage. Sorry to say but well, kahit kumain siguro ng apoy si Jess in stage, she might still lose. But of course, kung dito lang yan or other countries, well.. We have already a winner since day 1.
For me, I always dream to be a singer in a band. Not yun solo singer kasi di ko kaya, especially singing ballads, love songs.. Geez.. For example, sa wedding ni Ron Marc and Noreen, kahit di sikat yun kumanta, aba, nagustuhan ko siya coz, she singing bossa nova and Jazz.. Some Astrud songs pa, which one of my fave artist.. Parang sabi ko, ok na sa kin ang ganun, in a band or solo pero indie ang dating.. Less pop, more deep songs.
Why I love singing in a band? Siguro, yun mga idols ko in music.. More in a band type people. From JD, NO, the Smiths, Led Zep, RATM.. Radiohead and many more.. Sa OPM, Eheads, Parokya, Orange and Lemons, UDD, Urbandub, and sort of... Although I admit, I have a not so good voice, siguro sa phone ok voice ko.. Pero pagkumanta.. Naku sanay na ko sa kantyaw na antok na daw ako, o inom pa, lasing ka na pre kahit hindi pa.. Hehehe I have such a very low bass voice pag sa mic.. I don't know, I just can't help to improve a singing voice. Siguro ginagaya ko kasi si Ian.. Damn.. I'm such a c*nt. hehe
Or how about Morrissey? Di naman mataas voice niya pero very smooth and clever.. Zack pwede ko pa gayahin due to rap vocals and shouting at the end. hehe
Others, di na.. May mataas na kasi voice which is like, Robert Plant.. Geez, that is something, Godly..
I wonder, if I do solo, di ako sisikat.. Kasi yun mga pop singers or other great singers can sing high notes.. Except for Rap artist, such as JayZ.. Prince, Maxwell or even John Meyer perhaps.. How about the classics? Armstrong, Tony Bennett, even the KIng Elvis!
Other artist na gusto ko, ladies!! Great looking yet, has the edge.. Hmmmmm Sora Aoi? hahaha She's into Ebizu Muscats kasi so I can consider her in a band. How about... Sarah Mclachlan if I got it right, Jewel, Madonna of course.. Adele, Sophie Ellis Bextor, recently lang.. Grabe, kaya pala may mga models na gusto kumanta because of her.. Kylie of course.. Diana Krall, Astrud Gilberto siyempre.. Amy Winehouse, why would I forget about her.. And many more.. Except for Lady Gaga, why? Not because of the controversy.. Siguro, in a artistic sense, talagang ginaya niya si Madonna. Geez..
Anyway, maybe I want to sing a large crowd with a same goal which is to enjoy the music.. Kahit DJ nga lang, baka pwede ko pagtiyagaan, at least di ako kakanta! hehe With the likes of Kaskade and Armand Van Helden.. Just jumping with the crowd and singing my hearts out with them..
Grabe, parang masaya maging singer, despite it's harsh environment, it's not easy.. Lalo na you need to take care of your voice.. And if you are also a songwriter, aba.. Kailangan gawa ka ng gawa ng kanta para di malaos.. Do also some antics like other artists do.. The hardest of all.. The showbiz environment as well, which either you want to become famous by being infamous or become famous because you're great...
Geez, sa lahat ng yun, parang kaya ko lang ihandle, publicity. hehe Yun techinically.. I wish I can really sing!
Kaya sa karaoke, yun alam ko at madaling kanta lang ang kinakanta ko.. Grabe.. Kahiya. hehe Pero ok lang, ano naman paki nila..
I don't know even I have the time and money to train really for being a singer.. I truly except I'll not become a good one..
I rather enjoy watching those singing contest and make some ranting and comments to them!!! Bwahahaha
Because deep inside.. I know, they're better than me.. =)

A year of the Feast
After a year, first time I missed not only the Feast but also the mass, first time in such a long time.. hehe Well, makakahabol naman ako this week. Thanks to my best friend Rheg, wherever you are, spritiually.. I mean alam ko nasan ka in faith.. Thanks for this one.. The Feast!
After reading Didache for years, I can't believe na I can see live, Bro. Bo, Bro. Arun, Bro. Alvin, Bro. George and yes, my ideal girl and crush.. Sis. Rissa! hehe In a year, I'm blessed not only by their teachings and blessings, prayers from them.. Important, the guidance I have now.. The change I have especially in the image of God, talagang nagiba.. Not that vengeful or punishing God, but also a loving and caring God.
Marami na ko napuntahan the Feast, at last! Nakita ko na din QC feast. My hometurf. hehe I also had many outreach activities thanks to my Caring Group, lead by Sis April! At siyempre ang makikisig na miyembro ng CG. I look forward nga, as they know, magkaroon ng sariling CG.. Kaso di ako nakapagworkshop eh. Siguro may reason siya bakit ganun. hehe But anyway, I'm looking forward to it.
The feast also helped me not only to forgive others, but to feel worry free even problems arise or difficulties.. Calm and deep inside nervous but may strength na matatapos din ang lahat. It also gave me a clearer plan of my life, although kahit late na.. At least, now, I have other things to think or to do importantly than wasting time to regret, or even blame. I learned to move on, enjoy life and keep trying, even the small steps will definitely do.. To start para sa magandang pananaw sa buhay.
Speaking sa pananaw sa buhay, narealize ko through the feast na di lang material things are important in life. But relationships and service to others, and of course, to Him.. In his Great name, Jesus..
I know, I'm not pefect or kung gusto kong magpakabanal.. Ang gusto ko lang siguro, maging masaya ko sa buhay at sa mga taong nakapaligid sa kin. At siyempre payback to him.. Trying to be close to him every single moment in my life.
I should thank Him for the things he taught me through the Feast.. I'll be forever grateful at kung nawala ako sa landas, alam ko may babalikan ako.. Pero di ako magpapawala sa landas. Naman.. hehe Iwas na lang siguro.
I know it will be a daunting tasks to build 1000 feasts, but don't worry..
I'll see what I can do to contribute for it.. =)
I pray na next year, I'll be still writing here about the Feast and yes, makapagserve na!! Di talaga ako for music ministry. hehe
I pray that he'll never leave my side..
I pray that I can always see and feel him in this, one of the happiest place on earth!!!
The feast!
See you at the Feast near you! =)
