I watched The Simpsons on my own because my brothers already made plans to watch it with other people. It was ok. The usual Simpsons humor, very witty, very American. But I think they mellowed the jokes down a little since kids might be watching. Anyway, its The Simpsons, so its a good movie; I recommend it.
Awkward moments on the cinema: I was already laughing at the joke before (after 5-10 seconds) the others laugh.
I rate the movie 6.5/10.
By William Cowper
Oh for a closer walk with God;
A calm and heavenly frame;
A light to shine upon the road
That leads me to the Lamb!
Where is the blessedness I knew
When first I saw the Lord?
Where is the soul-refreshing view
Of Jesus, and his word?
What peaceful hours I once enjoyed
How sweet their memory still!
But they have left an aching void,
The world can never fill.
Return, O holy Dove, return,
Sweet messenger of rest;
I hate the sins that made me mourn
And drove thee from my breast.
My brother, his friend and I watched Ratatouille this evening, my treat for all the good marks my brother scraped on his exams. I was disappointed at his movie selection since I thought Simpsons is the better choice, I thought Ratatouille would be a waste. I was wrong, ah well.
"Anyone can cook!"
I highly recommend it, nothing less from the makers of Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. I give it a smacking 6.5/10! Watch it! I’ll definitely buy the DVD.
I finished the 7th and last installment of the Harry Potter series. I don’t give spoilers unless asked so you don’t have to worry that I would give juicy info about Snape.
I never was much of a reader before I read Harry Potter. What I am saying is Rowling probably made a reader out of me or that her books brought it out into the open. Only after Harry Potter did I start reading books without hesitations no matter how voluminous they seem.
Memories gushed back at me after I closed the last book of the series. I remembered particularly a periodical exams week when instead of brushing up on my subjects, I read Harry Potter books; one for each day of the week.
What probably made me a fan is the feeling of empathy I seem to have towards Harry. We’re not close and all, but we seem to share similarities. And no, it’s not magic nor the ability to make a twig’s tip luminescent. Only simple things like: when Harry was a dormer, I too was.
And now as I finished the series after 7 years I thoughtfully muse over the fact that it took just as long for me to stop being a dormer.
(FYI: This is the 100th post! Yay!)
Dedicated to someone who can relate with this right now.
Hope it cheers you up!

Catch Me I’m FallingToni Gonzaga
"I don’t know whyBut when I look in your eyesI felt something that seems so rightYou’ve got yours I’ve got mineI think I’m losing my mindBut I shouldn’t feel this way
Catch me...I’m falling for youAnd I don’t know what to do
How can something so wrong Feel so right all along Catch me…I’m falling for you
How can time be so wrong?For love to come alongCatch me…I’m falling for you
How can love let it go?When it has no place to goAnd I can’t go along…pretendingThat love isn’t here to stayCatch me I’m falling for you
If I could just walk awayWithout you from day to dayI would die just thinking of youI know we can never beMore than friends, you and meBut why do I feel this way
Catch me…I’m falling for youAnd I don’t know what to do
Maybe someday I’ll seeWhy love did this to meCause I can’t go along…pretendingThat love isn’t here to stayCatch me I’m falling for you
And it’s wrong for me to feel this wayCause I don’t know what to do without youI’M FALLING FOR YOUCatch me…I’m falling for you."
When I first heard this song played on the stereosof PHILCOA jeepneys I thought it was a foreignerwho recorded it and only recently I found out itwas actually Toni Gonzaga singing.
The song has enough “ick-factor” in it to make myfriend Lance’s ears bleed. Thoughtfully I imagine himcringe if he happen to hear this song, which heprobably will due to the radio station’s habit ofrepeating a song 1,000,000 times in a day.
“Kailangan pa bang i-memorize yan? Bisyo na ‘to!”
But since Lance’s ears evolved to have a naturaltendency to stop functioning during such a hypotheticalsituation I guess he is safe from major blood loss dueto this.
That is, FOR NOW.
Since his eyes on the other hand, trained to devourbooks and stare on the monitor as he works for atwenty page lab report do not have such ability, afterreading this post he might suffer from hypovolemicshock.At some levels I relate with the song. I can sense Lance’s convulsions starting so I’ll stopthere. I've always acknowledged Toni Gonzaga to be VERYPRETTY. I forget she is also a good singer. Now Iwon't. She actually reminds me a little bit of someone. (May kamukha ba sila? Hehehe)
"For to see your face is like seeing the face of God, now that you have received me favorably."
~Israel to his brother Esau
No apology of mine can suffice.Yet to those who forgave me, thank you.
“Do not gloat over me, my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will rise.
Though I sit in darkness,
the LORD will be my light.
Because I have sinned against him,
I will bear the LORD’s wrath,
until he pleads my case
and establishes my right.
He will bring me out into the light;
I will see his righteousness.
Then my enemy will see it
and will be covered with shame,
she who said to me,
"Where is the LORD your God?"
My eyes will see her downfall;
even now she will be trampled underfoot
like mire in the streets.”
~The prophet Micah
