To my avid readers (as if) : I apologize for being too lazy to update my blog. It's all because of STR, and long tests, and etc. Right now, I'm supposed to be doing Filipino, but, oh well. We have a lot to talk about that happened over these 12 days since my last post.
First, the not really important stuff. I was finally able to watch Transformers... Yey. Be happy for me. Be very very happy. Anyway... it was nice. While I am not familiar at all with the series, I still appreciate it. There is still the cliche nerd turning into hero over the course of the film, which is so overused and unoriginal and unreal, but Bumblebee's... appropriate background music really does deliver. All in all, it's a nice movie... I'm not sure how bad Harry Potter 5 sucked though... I still think it would be nice...
Speaking of Harry Potter, I was able to read and finish Deathly Hallows in a single day... when I was supposed to be reading Ang Mag-anak na Cruz. I slept at 2 am just to finish it... and it was nice. It really does tie up all the loose ends. There were a few slightly disappointing points. First of all, R.A.B. really did turn out to be //SPOILER; we were actually expecting somebody else - not a new character, but we got it right. There were also a few unanswered questions. For example, it is shown that Petunia Evans Dursley had correspondence with Dumbledore. No, not after the Boy Who Lived incident; she had a letter from him, maybe even about Hogwarts, when she and Lily were just teenagers. It might be likely that Petunia is actually a witch; she might have wanted to be a witch, at least. SInce there are no more books after, we may never know. Also, I expected something more elaborate for the Harry vs Voldemort fight thing. A cool duel like what happened between Voldemort and Dumbledore; Harry throwing spells at Voldemort, him doing the same, no more annoying Priori Incantatem/twin-core wands to slow it down (ah, spoiler... but then again, if they did do Priori Incantatem, it would've made a cool fight... the echoes of Voldemort's victims floating around...)... not just his spell simply backfiring on him. More questions. Can a simple Protego protect you from Voldemort's Killing Curse? Seems... unlikely, but for some reason... hmm... Other things. A lot of people died... I would've made a list, but... oh well... Voldemort dies, duh... Harry dies as well. What a spoiler.
Enough Deathly Hallows. Let's go to... Pisay! We (sodium + xby) watched on saturday, after the review. I was lucky to come, 'coz i was sick that time, with a slight fever. After taking a trip through Manila (we passed by Tobit's previous school, St. Jude, on the way...) we finally got to the CCP. We proceeded to the balcony, where I sat with Vien and Kyla... and directly behind Sir Talaue... There were a lot of teachers there, because they were all invited to watch at the same time we watched - 1530. The movie lasted a good two hours or so. The movie was, well... I couldn't really have an unbiased opinion of it, because I do study at that school. It was nice... mainly because we could see in the movie... parts of our own life in Pisay. We could relate to the stories of the people. I wouldn't want to spoil the story; all I can tell is that it is discontinuous. It covers the lives of different people throughout the different years of high school life, as the batch graduates. After a while, it might be redundant to see the students having the same class over and over again... but still, it is worth the discounted price of 50 pesos. There were also food and "drinks" there... drinks, as in, drinks that you're not supposed to drink yet. Why is it minors like beer anyway? Why are we so excited when one of our classmates brings beer or something? It may not even taste good at all... Maybe it's just a self-imposed standard by the society. I mean, just because we can't drink beer makes it a substance we look forward to drinking when we can. Anyway... we had a lot of Sodium pictures... It really was fun. We saw a lot of teachers at the place; most of the teachers we know are there; even ma'am cardenas was there... While it seems we might've wasted our time watching on the 21st when we watch it by batch on the 27th, there are still some... important things. I am definitely bringing some money to get a Pisay shirt...
Let's pray for Tobit and Steph, that they win something in IMO in Vietnam. And for Tobit as well, so that he would finally make a move when nobody's looking. Well, not what you think... It's just that... this might be the only chance he gets with Steph alone... I know that he would make the right/proper choice, whatever it may be. Let's just wish them good luck... And, expect them to bring presents/souvenirs/pasalubong... OR ELSE. (Yep, that's from Vien... Well... I want a souvenir also... Not really the panda bear that says "I love you!" when you squish it, but I want that also...)
My throat, or rather, the posterior end of my oral cavity hurts so much... I can't really eat because the sheer pain forces me to abandon eating. It really is painful... I just hope it heals soon...
That's all...for now... More posts to come.
