Zombadings
Posted on | December 20, 2011 | Comments Off

I’ve been meaning to watch this movie but for some reason I missed it. Zombadings: Patayin sa Shokot si Remington was one of those Tagalog movies that I would risk watching in the movie house. I can’t remember exactly why I missed the theater run but I think it had something to do with the schedule. Which was really too bad as I was looking forward to seeing it.
I remember that as soon as posters were up, I told my sisters that we should watch the movie as the title itself was already so darn funny!
I will just have to buy the DVD of the movie and watch it at home.
He’s really good!

Tito plays the melodica and I must say that he is really good at it! Tito came from a family of musicians and they all have each a specialty of their own. His father is good with guitars. His mom is good with the piano. His older brothers are good with the drums, the harp and the beat box. While his younger sister is good with the violin. It’s like their parents wanted them to have a music instrument they are all good at and can be really good playing.
And Tito’s choice is the melodica. He hopes to play professionally with a band.
Helping in the business

It is hard for a woman to help in a business about auto parts and accessories but with Lea helping with family business has been done since she was a little girl. She actually knows bearings more than beads and fashion accessories. She grew up at her father’s shop and she knows every little and big part being sold there.
Lea is actually ready to take over should her father desires to go for an early retirement. He’s been hinting at it and wondering if Lea can take over with the help of her brother. But her brother is busy being a doctor so it’s up to her to replace her father as business owner. She is ready.
Keeping up with the younger generation

The elders want to keep up with the younger generation so they want computers for each one of them and lessons so they know how to operate one.
I think it is great that those of the past generations who grew up on manual typewriters and gramophones have a desire to know this generation’s technology. I would like to think that it will also make their lives easier. Even learning how to email and chat can help them a lot in keeping in touch with their love ones scattered all over the globe.
Game of Thrones
Posted on | November 25, 2011 | Comments Off

Season 1 of the Game of Thrones is already done. For those who are unfamiliar with it, Game of Thrones is an HBO series adapted from the book series A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin. The TV series is a big hit even if it’s only on cable TV. I do think that the combination of great story, blood and gore plus sex provided enough lure for TV viewers to watch and follow the series.
On my part, I actually followed the series because I am reading the books and was truly drawn to the story line. Plus it helped a lot that the TV series had Jason Momoa cast as Khal Drogo. Had me swooning every time he appeared on the small screen!
Are you a fan of the Game of Thrones like me?

Bored? How about online bingo?
Posted on | November 23, 2011 | Comments Off
Cousin Rina is easily bored. She just couldn’t abide sitting idly. She needs something to do all the time. But she is also not the type of person who can spend hours on Facebook and Twitter waiting for updates from the people whom she interacts with. She needs something specific to do while online if ever. So I told her this… how about Online Bingo Games to keep you occupied and not bored when you have nothing else to do? She perked up and seemed interested when I told her my suggestion. Rina is specially bored these days because she is in between jobs. She will be starting work in three weeks so for now she is stuck at home when she is not meeting up with friends. The first question that she asked me was is it the same as the bingo game when we were younger? I told her it is a bit different considering that it is now played online whereas before we need to gather around a bingo hall or a specific place and would need to wait for the bingo master to call out the numbers. It is equally fun and both the online and offline game espouses community which is what I like about the game.
You might find it cheesy but I do have a soft spot for games of my youth. Those games I indulged in when I was trying to fit in the world of the adults around me. I am the eldest and I was always with the oldies. Rina was much younger than me so she didn’t witness those days when two older cousins and I would join the oldies in the family play bingo card games at the gram’s house. Those were the days… nowadays, just boot up your computer, connect to the internet and you can easily play bingo!
Jessica Zafra and Breaking Dawn

I am sure you have either watched Breaking Dawn part 1 already or you are planning to catch it before its run in the cinemas end. As for me, my friend and I will go catch it this weekend.
To be honest with you, I am not really excited about the movie. I am excited about seeing my friends, though. The Twilight Saga movie franchise made a joke out of the Stephenie Meyer books I don’t even know what was going through Stephenie’s mind she let the scriptwriter massacre her book series! If you are a huge fan of the Twilight book, you know what I am talking about.
Anyway, so I saw this article by Jessica Zafra in her column in InterAksyon.com and I’d like to share it with you. I am not going to post the article here but will just direct you to the column itself: Twilight – Breaking Wind. Read it! It’s so funny if you feel the same way towards the massacre of the movie you’d totally agree with her observations.

After Inception…
Posted on | November 21, 2011 | Comments Off

I am still looking for that movie that will make me go WOW! After Inception, there isn’t one that made me feel like that. Of course, the last Harry Potter movie is not included in this. How great the movie would be was already a given even before I saw it. I didn’t know how good Inception was until I was seated in the cinema. No other movie has captured my attention the way that movie did.
I hope a movie as good as Inception will come along. The only movie I am looking forward to now is The Hunger Games and I scared it will disappoint
What movies are you most looking forward to?
« go back — keep looking »
