well,vacation's over and i'm back to my same old routine only on a brand new year.as usual to make up for the time i was away this is goin' to be another lenghty post.
there's nothin' much i did during the whole vacation.i didn't attented any parties ('xcept for our family reunion) but instead i stayed at home and helped out at the chores (like doin' laundry,gardening,dishes and other stuff).i only went out two times to have a good time with my cousins.first i treated them to star city because i had 50 cancan tickets (a ticket enables you to have one free ride) that i got during my radio practicum at love.second,we went malling at festival mall,which has been a yearly activity for us.its the only time of the year wherein we would go out by ourselves without any adult supervision ('xcept for my cousin dribs and me).we've been doin' that for three years already.except for festival mall and star city i've never went anywhere else except to my cousin's house playin' video games but majority of my time was spent at home.
our christmas celebration was simple,it was just the usual thing we did every year.spendin' time with each other and eating,eating,eating and did i just say eating?the whole christmas week until new year was a feast.man,talk about a lot of food.i somehow grew tired of pasta during the holidays.in fact,i even did eat spaghetti for breakfast,lunch and dinner(it's not obvious that spaghetti happens to be my favorite food right?).good thing i never got fatter cause i already have a big tummy.(its not a beer belly ok?my tummy grew because of my being a lazy boy.)which now leads me to another part of this post,which is...
my new year's resolution
just like what i've written above i already got a tummy which i plan on removing this year.im not thinkin' 'bout liposuction because first its costly and second, im afraid of operations.im thinkin' bout' workin out this year and as a matter of fact i already started going to the gym today.to tell you guys honestly,my arms and shoulder are hurtin right now, which makes this post a little hard to do compared to the usual.anyways,i know this pain is only temporary and the hardships that i've goin' through right now are worth it the moment i achieved my dream body that is...a little like ryan reynolds' in blade trinity...so that when i apply for a job i would easily get accepted not only because of my skills but also because they would be mesmerized with my good looks and sexy body.(haha!dream on luiboi!dream on!)
but seriously speaking,this is only the time i thought about body cause ever since i was a kid i was skinny and a lot of my classmates and friends could prove that.somehow in the coming months i really wish that i could achieved the body that im dreaming about.
speaking ' bout new year i almost got myself hurt.during new year's eve my cousins and i was lighting up fireworks i almost got into a fatal accident,in other words "muntik na kong maputokan".you may ask what kind of firework it is?its a roman candle.man,it really sucks just thinkin' of it.
what happened was as i was holding up the roman candle i was also running around which caused the gun powder to slide downward and caused another spark at the handle which i was holding.i only realized that there was another spark at the handle was during the time that i felt that its getting hot.good thing,i threw it immediately cause if i didn't, it could have exploded during the time i was holding it.thank god i only got burns on my left hand.that night as i was goin' to bed i could feel my left hand burnin' and no one was to be blamed except me.reason why i didn't get to enjoy eating afterwards cause i could really feel my hand burnin..sigh..
but that wasn't all,our celebration wasn't really in a festive mood because my grandmother was feelin' bad that night.in fact she was confined to the hospital the mornin' after.good thing though,she's all well now,thank god.
well,that's 'bout it all regarding my whereabouts during my holidays.on with the usual thing i do at this site...
movie reviews
like what i've said during my previous post i'm goin' to do a review for blade trinity and kung-fu hustle.doin' movie reviews is also somethin' i missed doin'.on with the reviews...
blade:trinity
this is the third installment of this series from marvel.blade,a vampire hunter whose series started as a comic book from marvel.i'd say that among the three blade films this happens to be my favorite.why?when in fact there was nothing new in this movie,the fight scenes and special effects was just all the same.what made me like this is not because of anythin' this movie has got new to offer but because they were able to maintain or if not even improved their formula which made this series interesting.the addition of the nightstalkers (ryan reynolds and jessica biel) to the fold gave the movie a more existing twist.now,you're not only limited to seeing blade and whistler.now you get to see new faces.previously,blade was more action-packed,not that im sayin' that it was less this time,it still is but with an added humour.hannibal king(ryan reynolds),was able to put a touch of comedy in this action-packed movie.cinematography was ok cause just like what i've said nothing much has changed in the series.if you've already watched blade 2,you may get an idea what i'm talking about.except for a few expected scenes and less gore,this movie is good.i recommend it to be a great barkada movie.
rating:4/5
kung fu hustle
this is another comedy from funny man,stephen chow.just like his previous work,shaolin soccer,this movie is insanely funny.this movie is about two brothers who are wannabe gangsters.they tried a lot of things(though a lot of them failed) just to be accepted as one.this movie offers action-packed fight scenes.you'll be astonished about the great kung fu in this movie,not to mention the special effects.the cgis were great for an asian film(its not that im bein' discriminant its just that im not used to seein' these good special effects in an asian movie),the special effects were good enough to compete with western films.the only thing i find dissapointing 'bout this movie is that this movie has poor character development.everything was fast so fast paced,some characters was given less attention like stephen chow's love interest.one moment,she's this young bullied girl then next thing you know she's this ice cream vendor then she's gone for a while then there she comes out again before the film ends but then again,who cares too much about the story when the movie is insanely funny mixed with great kung fu,righ?its a movie worth of your money and time.this is definitely a great barkada movie!

my bill is gettin' quite costly already so i think i'd already end this up.
