Not half-excited

Because if I were to measure my excitement about the new Harry Potter movie, a scale of 1 – 10 wouldn’t even suffice. Just a few moments ago, not even an hour, I just finished reading (finally) Half-Blood Prince and I just can’t help but be amazed. JK Rowling is such a genius! It just keep on getting better, I tell yah. Well, this is not a review of the book but merely an expression of gratitude that I was able to be in a world, I think, no one had dared think of but Ms. Rowling.  And I could never be any happier, had I not purchased a set of HP books few months back. Yes, I made it to read all six just in time for the new movie set to open on July 16 here in the Philippines. Oh, I can’t wait! July is indeed Harry Potter month, aside from it being my birth month, and me sharing the same birthday with JK and Harry! Something to brag about haha! Anyway, here’s one of the many trailers I’ve checked out in YouTube.

See you at the cinemas!!

Raving Reviews 9

Wow, I didn’t know this one’ll become the 9th installment for my review posts until I checked the Archives. Anyway, here are my say about the movies & series I’ve watched, and book/s I got to read over the past month or so. Well, minus Harry Potter books 5 & 6. Just felt lazy to make a review for them, I guess. All these are originally posted on my Multiply page.

Astig to! Ang galing! So love it! Palakpakan talaga halos lahat sa sinehan after. Looove it! Was able to see it over the weekend with mah Pareng Nhinz and MIchelle. What a way to cap off our gimik weekend! A blast, indeed.

Megan Fox is love! Is the toe thumb rumor true, though? But whattaheck, I still love her! Oh how I envy Shia!

And Bumblebee!! I love her!! Ang cute nya umiyak hehe… I also like the lolo Decepticon who offered Optimus to use his parts… Galeng!!

Sobrang astig din yung soundtrack syempre. Greenday’s 21 Guns is such a killer! And also The Fray, Hoobastank, Staind, and of course Linkin Park! Whoa!

I wanna watch it again!!!! =)

What can I say, I just so looove this show! Good thing I decided to buy its first season one time I went somewhere (make a wild guess). Been hearing good stuff about it from some of my tweetmates that’s why I thought giving it a try won’t hurt. And true enough, it was one helluva series! Everything about it is just greeaaat!

The story’s really interesting, and they make it seem real and believable. The characters were downright funny. Chuck really aces at this part, for me his acting’s the bomb. And yes, of course, my new girlfriend, the love of my life, Yvonne Strahovski!! Oh my, I just so l♥♥♥♥ve her!!! Hot, sexy, kickin’ ass here and there. I really envy Chuck. He also got to kiss her, dang!

I once tweeted and asked why does Chuck has to star hot and sexy ladies. Sarah Lancaster, who played Chuck’s sister, is also to die for! So, why then? Why?

I want more of this show! It’s so freakin’ addicting! Season 2 is comin up real soon.

“Well, the facts are these – Paul Ignatius is 26 years, 11 months, 3 weeks and 2 days old when he learned about this amazing show curiously titled Pushing Daisies. Amusing is probably more apt, as he often find himself in a state of elation everytime it’s being played on tv.”

Ok, that’s the most I can come up with to start this review haha! That’s how usually the narrator begins the show, not every episode though, and it most of the time reminds me of a movie I love, Amelie. But aside from that, Pushing Daisies is indeed one great show. I super super love it! To quote a blog/review I have stumbled upon, “It was charming, funny, heartfelt, inventive, and visually brilliant. And I loved every minute of it.”

True enough, I loved every minute of it. The story is undeniably interesting, and the characters were hilariously amazing. I just so love Ned (Lee Pace) and Chuck (Anna Friel), but on the other hand can’t imagine myself living with the one I love who I can’t even touch. Sad, but that’s just one of the show’s factor I learned to love the most. The idea is quite disturbing, but they made it seem more easier to absorb.

Detective Emerson Cod is one funny guy, too. Played by Chi McBride of Boston Public (I miss this show), it was like seeing another side of him, the funny side. And can I just say that Olive (Kristin Chenoweth) here is such a sweet, lovable, naive and funny girl I started to hate at first (because of her voice) but eventually learned to love. She’s very warm, receptive and extremely hilarious.

Anyway, I know I have much more to say about Pushing Daisies but I’d rather stop and look for the second season dvd. I hope I can find one with complete episodes. I heard it was cut short and that ABC stopped airing it last year. But it won’t change the fact that a lot of people loved it, myself included of course, and that we’ll all just hope to see more of Lee Pace and Anna Friel in the near future.

Genre:	Horror

Watched this last Saturday with KC and Oscar, my new movie buddies haha! Hmmm, where do I start? Ok, nakakagulat sya pero for me, hindi masyado nakakatakot. I’d still go for the Asian type of horror movies. Nice yung story but still parang may kulang.

Almost half the time I felt like throwing up. Madami din kasing yucky moments hehe! And funny moments, too. The goat scene tops my list for this one, specially when it started to talk like a possessed one.

I’m not much of a movie critic but the music score actually helped a lot. Magugulat ka talaga sa ibang scenes because of the musical score. And you’d somehow feel na nakakatakot talaga. But all in all, ok naman sya. Probably it’s just me, kaya di ko masyado nagustuhan. The creepy, takot factor, I mean. Or probably I expected a lot from this movie, since I’ve been hearing good stuff before its opening. Ok, I don’t know what to make up of this review haha! Bangag na ko.

Basta lesson learned: Wag na magtrabaho sa bank, or maging credit/loan adviser haha!

Genre:	Nonfiction
Author:	Bob Ong

My brother was the one who bought a copy last week, and I was able to read it in a few hours, maiksi lang naman. I took a break from reading Harry Potter for the meantime, and thought of giving Bob Ong’s new one a try. Been a long time since his last book, and yes, I’m a fan of his. I have all his 6 books.

Well, this new one Kapitan Sino, I don’t know if I just didn’t get its message (coz I am sure there is, somewhere there hidden), or probably because minadali ko magbasa. I didn’t liked it that much. Maganda yung umpisa, the ending so so. But yeah, siguro nga it’s just me. I’ll probably read it again and edit this review.

Kapitan Sino is much like a novel (if that’s the correct term) that sets apart from his usual funny ones. Just like MacArthur, the first Bob Ong book I’ve read, which I really really love. I hate to compare, but I just can’t help it haha! I know it’s two entirely different story. But I liked his attack on the what we call “masa” people. I know most readers can relate with those tv shows, commercials, and food brands he mentioned on the book. Reminiscent of those good old days.

And that’s what I like about Bob Ong. I can so relate to his stories and stuff. So I guess I’d still count Kapitan Sino as one of a good book one should read.

The June Ride, part 2

I really intended to have a second part for this specific post, because the month of June still isn’t done when I did the first installment for the June Ride. And now, time to cap off the crazy month I just had.

Soul Sessions. It’s our dear friend Kid Camaya’s (Pinoy Idol top 4) album launch last week, June 27th to be exact, and it was a success! We’re just so proud of him, and really positive that he’ll have a great career ahead. What’s more, our group of friends were all included in his album’s thank you message. Sweet! We then had a blast at the after party at Club Industry. The DJ did a great job in mixing and spinning music such as Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, Craig David, Beyonce, PCD, Black Eyed Peas and many more. We had a swell time!

Crashing at The Show. After having a blast at Kid’s launch, as if we’re not contented, we then dragged ourselves to the RX booth haha! Well, the visit’s actually a planned one, because Enzo promised me he’ll give me a copy of his Spanish modules (in audio format) that’s why I made sure to dropby after the launch. And so we did, and what a way to call it a day! Fun indeed! Specially when Arden did his scandal haha!

Invaded. The next day, as if we’re not contented again, my two remaining buddies that gimik weekend Nhinz and Chelle suddenly wanted to watch Transformers. So I was like, are you both serious? But who am I not to give in? I love the first one and I thought the second one’ll be equally good. And yes, we enjoyed it! So much that I am seeing it again tomorrow. This time with two other friends and my twin brothers. Yeah, that’s how I liked the movie.

The Michael Jackson Hangover. I guess most are still not over this one. Or probably some still can’t seem to fathom the mere idea of the untimely death of The King Of Pop. Well, same here. I’ve been tweeting lyrics of some of his songs, posting status about him, taking quiz on Facebook about him and his songs, putting his songs on repeat mode in my player. Even our neighbors are still strucked; I’ve been hearing most of them play Jacko songs every morning, out loud. It just goes to show, proving further, that his music will live on and he’ll stay in our hearts forever. He led a sad enough life, so let’s try not to be sad on his death. Instead, let us all celebrate his music. Here’s a tribute montage from YouTube, one of the many I liked. This one’s much better with his song Man In The Mirror.

RIP, Jacko

The whole (music)world is now grieving. THE King of Pop has passed. How sad! I am actually out of words as of the moment so I’ll just have a quick and short post here. I myself is a fan, especially during my younger days. He is considered as one of the biggest artist in the history of music. An icon. And even though he’s been through a lot of things, it wouldn’t change the fact that what he contributed is legendary. But now he’s history. A part of history people would love to remember over and over again, with utmost love and pride. Ok, I can go on and on with this post but none of this would suffice the actual emotions heightening everyone now. Just check this one out, from Yahoo Music. They did a tribute for Michael Jackson. Click HERE for the feature entry.

Goodbye, Jacko. You’ll be forever missed.

The June Ride

I guess I miss doing a monthly post. This is’nt, though. But a sort of a monthly recap. Well, half-month that is. The month of June, so far, is spent with my dearest friends. Watched a movie, a concert, and yes even a video scandal.

Vicky, Highden & Kutrina. I was with my friends Vicky & Vivienne and we all watched the most talked about video together, one Monday afternoon at my place. Afterwards, at the height of searing emotions, we ended up doing a spoof of three of the major characters involved in it during our usual photo op. We had a swell time! Here are some of our fun moments:

One Helluva Day! This one’s a movie dayout with KC and Oscar, two of the most “sikat” Rushers hehe! Glad they invited me, coz it has been a while since I watched a movie with my usual friends. And because of that, they became my new movie buddies. We watched Drag Me To Hell, by the way, which turned out to be a fun movie hehe! After that, we went to RX and surprised the Jumpstart guys. Had a great time, too!

A Clearly Dominated Night. And last-minute nightout, too! Because of that, I needed to compromise on some other stuff, hear hear! Anyway, I’m glad I was able to be a part of this event. A friend of mine is a rabid PCD supporter that’s why it is indeed my pleasure to join her. And we enjoyed it, to the bits! I’ve never spent a night with a lot of pussies before. Well, the Dolls that is. Yeah, Mei included haha!

I ♥ my friends!! Don’t you just love spur of the moment gimiks or ayaan? That’s what happened the last weekend. Had a night of fun, laughter and booze with my high school friends, er, over at my place. And what do we play on during photo op this time? Just scroll down.

Quite a ride, don’t you think? The rest of the month would be just like the ones above, spending good times with great friends. Just over the weekend, me and my RX friends finally had a nightout after quite a while. But pics aren’t available yet. And next week, we’ll up for an album launch and another RX visit. Yey! I’ll post those as the second part of the entry. Wonder what’s in store for me on my birth month. Hmmm…

Four more days!!

I am so excited to see Transformers 2, Revenge of the Fallen! Four more days and it will be shown here in the Philippines. I so love the first one that’s why I’m expecting a lot from its sequel. I’m also looking forward to see Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox again! I haven’t updated myself yet about the issue about Megan, but what the hell, I still love her! And that won’t stop me from watching the movie. I mean, I loved Transformers since I was a little kid, watching its cartoon version. And seeing it come to life in the big screen would always be a wow moment for me. Anyway, I hope I can watch it right away. With my usual movie buddies. If not, probably with someone else. Here’s the trailer. Watching it alone excites me more! Waaahh!

My Idol hitlist

Seven days past the month of June, and I haven’t posted anything new here. Guess I am so not in the blogging mode again. Anyway, this entry has been a lingering idea since last week. I just needed to research some stuff in making a list. It’s my (meaning my personal picks) Top 10 Favorite AI Season 8 live performances. I would love to include videos of actual live performance for each, but it’s darn hard to find HQ ones. Most were just audio versions, and some would make your eyes squint. So without any further ado, here’s the list from 10 to 1:

10. Be Without You – Lil Rounds

- This is where you can actually see and hear an authentic Lil Rounds. I think she did this during Top 36 performance night. Watching her back then, at that point of the competition, I really thought she’d make it all the way thru the top 4 or something. Unfortunately her power seemed to have wavered early on. But yeah, I love her take on this song.

9. You’re All I Need To Get By – Von Smith

- I don’t know but I like Von’s performance of this one. Felt like a really true and honest take on a great song. He did this on Top 36 performance as well, or is it on the Wildcard Round? Can’t remember. I don’t think it’s worthy of the Top 13 spot, but nevertheless, I liked it.

8. Angel Of Mine – Anoop Desai

- This one I so remember. Anoop did this on the semi finals, but failed to make it on the top 12. I was a bit disappointed with the results then. How come he didn’t made it? After his performance, I right away downloaded the original version of the song and thought that Anoop did a great job in rendering his own take of this lovely song.

7. Saving All My Love For You – Tatiana Del Toro

- Ok, I have to admit I liked Tatiana’s version of this Whitney Houston classic. And I really thought she’d make it. In all honesty and fairness, the song suits her. The way she sang it was just right, and it was like seeing a different side of Tatiana, which I like. And she’s really pretty! Too bad she sang it again on the Wildcard Round. An obvious downfall, I think.

6. Tracks Of My Tears – Adam Lambert

- I believe this is where he started to mark his presence in the competition, like in the sense of total artistry. I mean, I liked Adam since Holywood Week, and even that early I thought that this guy can offer a lot to the show. He never fails to amaze the viewers and even the judges. And this rendition of Track Of My Tears is an evident proof.

5. You Are So Beautiful – Danny Gokey

- As what Simon Cowell quoted after Danny sang this at the Top 3 performance, it is indeed a “vocal masterpiece”. I honestly believe that. This has got to be my ultimate favorite Gokey performance. I was like, Wow! after watching it. Really great!

4. I Can’t Make You Love Me – Allison Iraheta 

- I love Allison’s rough style, and her singing this ballad was a bit surprising for me. But she gave it her own take, and nailed it big time! I so love this performance of hers. It was like hearing an entirely different song, and stamping Allison’s mark made it effortless.

3. Man In The Mirror - Kris Allen

- It was the first week of the semi finals and there’s this guy singing a Michael Jackson song. I was unaware of his name coz he didn’t had much exposure at the start of the season. But he was good, not bad at all, specially after a Jacko song. And who would’ve thought, that this simple guy who gave a heart warming take on Man In The Mirror would eventually emerge as the grand winner?

2. To Make You Feel My Love – Kris Allen

- One of the many genuine and pure performance from Kris. I believe this is where he started to keep the ball rolling for him, and just kept on Allenizing songs and performances. This made me love the song much much more. And that, I believe, is a mark of a true artist.

1. Mad World – Adam Lambert

- Ok, ok. I know I shouldn’t have included this on the list (for some obvious reasons, it should be exempted haha!), but I sincerely and personally believe that Adam’s Mad World should top anyone else’s Idol list. Never have I raved so much about an Idol performance since David Cook’s Always Be My Baby. Both songs gives me goosebumps watching and even hearing it anywhere. I know I rooted for Kris Allen, but yeah, I’ll give this top spot to Adam. He likes being on top, anyway.

And with that note, I will end this entry. It was an amazing season and I can’t wait for the next one! I miss the show na!

100 Songs That Shaped My Life

Was tagged by my friend Arden on Facebook. It’s about making a list of a hundred songs to save your life/for your future offsprings. He actually got tagged as well, and from the looks of it, they all got it from a quite interesting blog. Long story, so just click HERE for the whole story behind it.

I twisted it a bit, though. I instead made it the Top100 Songs that shaped my life. It’s not that I don’t want to make a list for my future offspring, but I thought it would be more fun to list down songs that you really enjoyed listening to during your early years…

So below are the songs that shaped, so far, this seemingly boring 26 years of my life. The ones I remember singing along with back then as a child and now as a not-so-young loveless adult haha! And of course those songs I attach personal memories with, be it good or bad. Those when heard, I start to remember special persons and events in my life.

Ok, so Kris Allen won. The debates were still searing, even Clay Aiken had his say about all this. But I won’t discuss that on this post. Still can’t over Kris’s victory, yes, but I’ve had enough of those rants about him too. I will instead post some overdue reviews I had this past few months. From my Muliply, of course. It has been ages since I posted reviews here!

How often does a horror film make one cry? Not always the case, I’d assume. But yeah, this movie made me cry. Sa ending. Probably because I really felt that it really happened, or the movie was made to make you feel that way. It was surprisingly good.

I actually didn’t know much about this film. I once saw the trailer, but missed the part that it was based on actual events. My friends and I initially planned to watch Fuschia one Saturday night after celebrating Arden’s birthday. But I don’t know why they all chose The Haunting in Connecticut instead. My pareng Nhinz was the one who suggested it.

What I like about the movie is that it’s not the typical horror film made to scare its viewers. There is a great story and you’d somehow get engrossed with it. I’m actually not much of a fan of American horror movies, I’d go for Japanese/Koreans and the like. That’s why I’m kind of surprised while watching this one.

Aside from the ending, the part that really struck me were those old pictures. So eerie, those faces! Waaahh! It can haunt you on your sleep hehe! All in all, I liked it. Might buy a dvd copy soon for the twins to watch. They’re so into horror flicks.

Oh, I love the quote Virginia Madsen said towards the ending. That God works in mysterious ways. I just forgot the entire quote hehe!

If there’s one thing I totally didn’t regret doing, it’s buying the HP set about a month ago. Even though it equates to shelling out a bit of a sum of money, it all boils down to liking it all and loving every bit of those books. HP and the Prisoner of Azkaban would never ever be an exception.

I love this one, to the bits! It just keeps on getting better, I tell yah! I really can’t remember the movie version but, ok, I’ll focus on the book of course. The story’s amazing, the characters are very revealing and unforgettable, the pacing is just spot on! I couldn’t help but flip through the pages, my eyes hurting and fingers burning.

My favorite part? A lot, actually. When Harry, at Hogsmeade, found out a lot of things about his father. I was like, also gasping while reading it! Also when they (Harry, Hermione, and Ron) found out about the Marauder’s Map, and that Sirius, Pettigrew and Harry’s dad were friends before; and the trailing truth about who’s to blame about Harry’s parents death. That was just so intense! And of course, when Hermione and Harry turned back time, saved the hippogriff’s and Sirius’s lives. Waaah, ang galeeeng!!

I might watch the movie version later, same with The Chamber of Secrets. Sort of a marathon. Basta, I love this book so much! And I’ll start the fourth book later as well. Ha! :d

I haven’t read the book, as much as I wanted to before watching the film version, but I liked it. Got to watch it last Thursday w/a friend, and we both enjoyed it. Action packed, fast paced. Every minute is full of excitement, amusing facts, and yes questions. You’d wonder if those things are actually happening. Religion is really this interesting. It’s a plus if you’re Catholic. I’m not, but still I enjoyed it.

I didn’t get to watch DaVinci Code. This one’s its prequel, I think. For the book, at least. A friend told me Angels & Demons (the book) is way better than The DaVinci Code, that’s why I opted to watch it. And since I haven’t read any of the books, nothing of that disappointed feeling coz I’ve nothing to compare it with. But with or without the book, I think the movie was done beautifully. Ron Howard did a great job.

Tom Hanks did great, too. At one point though I was like questioning how good he is playing his role. I later realize he’s playing as a Symbologist. Or Symbolist? Something like that. Ewan Gregor was brilliant! I have never seen him act this great. Well, I’m not much of a fan of his, but yeah, I loved him in this movie.

Overall, 4 stars. I just love how the movie was made, na talagang naapreciate ko sya even though di ko napanood ung DaVinci. I want an Illuminati ambigram as a tattoo!! haha!

**********

And finally, the most rave worthy of all, American Idol Season 8 grand winner KRIS ALLEN!!! Told yah, I still can’t get over it. Let me end this quoting what I have posted on Multiply.

And now that it’s official, I together with the rest of those who got ALLENIZED (love Paula’s term) can rejoice all we want!!! I’m just soooo happy that he won!!! Been hearing some stuff that Adam was the deserving one, but hey, it’s already finished and the American nation has already spoken. They all preferred the acoustic rocker against the glam rocker, the guy next door against the guyliner. Adam’s got a great great future ahead of him, anyway. And so does Kris, of course. Way to go!!! This was such an amazing season!! And the finale was just WHOAH!!! Unbelievable!! Ok, nuff said. I’ll shut up now. Congrats, KRIS!!!

Who’s it gonna be??!

Ok, that’s the most I can make out of the new header. Still too giddy about this season’s finale, I thought of changing it. We just watched the performance night, and I’ll stand by my choice Kris Allen! Adam’s the bomb, yes, but I don’t know, I just had this feeling that Kris will win this. I know he wasn’t even in my original top3 choices (posted some time ago), but now that it’s down to him and Adam, I really would want the former to win. And yes, I hated Gokey the last few weeks! That’s why I was happy that he didn’t make it haha!

So I guess we’ll just have to prolong the agony and wait until tomorrow. I can’t freakin’ wait! Mind you, I even filed for a leave just for the Finale Was actually thinking of having an Idol holiday with my AI freak friends, where we’ll watch it in one place together, but too bad the mere idea isn’t even feasible. So I’ll just enjoy it with my sibs, then. I don’t think I will be able to sleep tonight haha!

Whoever wins, I’m ok. I wasn’t rooting for a specific one since day 1 and I both like the remaining two. I’d just be happier if Kris Allen will emerge as the grand winner. But, again, whoever it is, I’m totally cool. It has been a great season! And before we end this day, let’s hear them plead for votes:
