Reunited Again

There's an alleviating feeling when you see your old friends again. The feeling of nostalgia and excitement is there.


And its been a while when I saw friends in a theater class I attended! After three long years! I actually wondered if they still can recall how I look like! Well, as they say, the heart knows better than the eyes. Its the time you spent together that really matters; the laughs and jokes you shared, issues you talked about, and other more trivial matters you and your friends partook!

Anyway, there are supposed to be five of us who should reunite, but at least three came and we shared a Saturday afternoon at Trinoma and SM North EDSA.

So there, after long walks and talks we decided to eat at a fastfood chain, Kentucky Fried Chicken, since there were budgetary constraints ( mind you, I still haven't got a job and my friends are studying). We shared the afternoon by recalling memories from our theater class with French fries and mashed potatoes.


I also treated them to a cotton candy spree just to make the day more memorable ( and a bit childish) . But who cares?


And to make our afternoon more enjoyable, we decided to watch a movie.

Guess what movie we saw?


Kung Fu Panda! :P ( Hoo - hah! )


And curious enough, I found the characters cute. Especially that fat and lazy panda bear, Po.

I didn't know that movies like these are enjoyable. I actually laughed my heart out on this movie.

Good enough to make my day relaxing.

I really had fun on that day. And I'm looking forward seeing my friends again.

Soon.

Italian Food + Good Movie = Enjoy!

Friday last week, after my job-related appointment.


My parents invited us to watch a movie at Trinoma. Since I haven't been to the movies lately because of relentless job hunting, I obliged. Because of the persistence of my younger siblings, we watched The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Hmm...Narnia ,huh. The last installment of Narnia I watched was alright( The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe) so I wasn't expecting much of the movie.

Sailing through Quezon City's traffic was good until we reached North Avenue! We were stuck there for about 15 minutes. And to think we're near the destination. 'Nuff said. Manila's traffic is always that way...and it was a Friday. It dawned to me to that finding a parking space in Trinoma is tough, especially on a Friday. We just decided to park at the top floor.

At least we were early enough to decide on our watching time, we settled to watch the 8PM schedule. Since the movie was just 30 minutes away, we went to Sbarro to buy dinner to bring in the cinemas. ( and learned that the Pepperoni Stromboli is as good a lunch! )



Anyways.

The movie proper. Watch.




Thinking that the movie was just the same as the previous one, I found myself looking forward to the next episode! The movie was good! Here are the pluses and deltas: ( Disclaimer: Spoiler! )

PLUSES:

1. Smart Humor throughout the movie.
2. Great Accent of the actors and actresses. ( Nakakainggit yung accent ni Ben Barnes! )
3. Anna Katherine Popplewell.
4. Special Effects were superb.
5. Storyline was engaging and is not boring.
6. The romance between Prince Caspian and Susan Pevensie made the movie more interesting.

DELTAS:
1. Special effects were Lord-of-the-Rings-ish.
2. Bitin!

Kudos to the movie!

I'm on the look out for the next episode.

Creativity Juices, I Summon You! * poof *

Literally. I'm not sure if my creativity left me after I graduated college. I'm trying to find it again. Well, if summoning( I tried.. ) doesn't work, well, I would do what a normal chef would do to get that orange juice..

Squeeze it out of the fruit.

Fruit = Brain.

Squeeze. ( not 7-11, you glutton! )

Imagine the feeling. >_<

Anyways, I heard that a radio station is looking for an artist who can create a logo for them. Hmm.. then I said to myself, why can't I provide a logo for them? So they can see the artist in me. I'm no Picasso but I'll try!

Now, I'm browsing the Internet to look for a model, I have an idea in my mind right now and with the right mix of creativity and a little bit of persistence. And using the right pencil shade, and....

Taaaddddaaaa!

Masterpiece!


It's alive!!! ( not. )

A Not So Big Day Tomorrow

After three weeks of scavenging jobs in a local newspaper, surfing through the internet(and visiting porn sites as well...) or just walking in with my resume' (and networking with a seat mate who turns out to be school mate or a relative) ; Finally I have a chance of hooking a job! I'll be meeting with an important manager this week and talk about the job offer.

Cool! Not really...

I feel ecstatic but not excited . It's quite confusing.
I feel that the job is not for me. Not because the job is not challenging or good enough but the feeling of self-fulfillment is not yet there. I'm not satisfied. Maybe even motivated. I just need to do this for the sake of having a job and learning a few skills and knowledge along the way.

Let's see what happens.

Well, as I have an appointment, I have to ready the following:

1. Undergarments
2. Ironed Pants
3. Belt
4. Long Sleeved Polo
5. Socks
6. Pair of Black Shoes, shined
7. Tie
8. Jacket
9. Comb
10. Hair Wax
11. Cologne ( hey...)
12. Shades
13. Umbrella
14. Daily Planner
15. Bag
16. Company Documents
17. Wallet - M.R.T. Stored Value Card
18. Handkerchief

Hhmmm.... Let's see though what happens after. Anyway, if a thing is for you, it will come to you no matter what the circumstance.

So help me God.

Boyce Avenue

They're good.

A-AM7-A7-F#....

A Sunday afternoon just went on, it was 5:30PM, and I had nothing to do. I then remembered my acoustic guitar.



I tried playing it but I felt rusty since I haven't played my guitar since I graduated from college. I remembered I bought this guitar in Sta. Mesa, at an OC Bandilla store. Of all the guitars there, I choose this one since the last picture in mind that time was Michelle Branch' guitar. I choose a blue acoustic guitar. I paid 800 pesos for the guitar with a cord and case.

After which, I proceeded to a friend's house near UST (where I studied), to learn how to play it.
It was hard work, really...


Anyways, back to the present. I tried playing the song Lost in Space by the Lighthouse Family since I have been practicing it for the longest time. I actually memorized the chords, its just that its been a long while since I played.


I actually want to play this song to a girl.

But I haven't got a chance.


Yet.

Job Hunting Blues

As I have been unemployed for the past two weeks, I have been ardently looking for a new job. But it seems that all is in vain!

Now, I can say for myself that its not the credentials you carry that will take you to your dream job. It's how you carry and "sell" yourself to the company. Even more, you must impress the company by your self-confidence and maturity in handling a professional conversation.

I must say that I still haven't mastered the gift of gab. I need to work out on that more.
