CAROUSEL

BUS-TSD!

 

(the life and misunderstading of a commuter)

 

 

 

062608.Thursday.Metro Manila.

 

I was almost late this morning. But this amazing, luxury, state-of-the-art, sosi, business-class coach came to the rescue. Whoa, yebaahh! Citylink  is here, thank heavens!

 

But still, the convenience and relaxed ride I had this morning amidst of the race to hit my 9 am shift,is just like a dream. I didn’t even notice, we were already at East Service Road. Bye bye citilink..

 

The coach is far more than accommodating. It offers nice smell, not loud but audible sound system,, comfy couch, clean and neat floors. As it pass through the long stretch of C5 road, I came to ask and wondered—what if im riding like this in EDSA?

 

Whoa. Its like making a mountain out of molehole. But its possible ..someday..

Right now, I just have to satisfy myself dreamin about the most convenient commute I ever had since I came here.tsk.tsk.tsk.

KUNG FU PANDA: AWESOMENESS!

i seldom watch animations in the big screen. the last movie i watched so far before ’tis flick is ice age 2. (err.when was that na pala..) but since i need to give a weekend aliw to myself, i ended my saturday with this animation by dreamworks.

a lot of improvement already has been made in the animated movie industry. and tis is one among ’em. not over the 3D figures i watched before, and not undertoned by basic animated graphics and pictures. the simplicity of the plot with the subtle colors and figures made me to watch it relaxed and enjoyable. i didnt even mind the laughters and kakulitan of the kids beside,, behind, and in front of me. deadma.sa ganda ng movie, we even laughed each other’s hearts out.

no wonder, to date kung fu panda remained second in the weekend box office hit ( per themorningrush news @ 17 by delamar yesterday). cliche it may seem, tis movie isnt for kids only, but also for the adults, with or without the “isip-bata” and feeling “bata” , you will certainly laugh for it. anu pa at pati mga parents na kasama sa movie that day eh nag-enjoy din. 

substance-wise?  because of the simplicity of the movie, even kids will understand why the scroll is blank . that you got to believe with yourself in whatever endeavor you do in tis life..etc..etc.i wasnt even surprised when one of the kids there asked ‘”mom, why tylong gone bad?”

 


COUCH P.A.T.A.T.A.S

 PBB TEENS PLUS BIG NIGHT; THE FRENCH OPEN FINALS = got crazy but need to get over with

 

 

Saturday was a Big Night for the PBB Teens, but for me, it will only mean that my PBB nights will soon come to end. No more rushing to go home during after work, just to hit the 9 30 to 10 P. M starting time. No more discussions the morning after with ate lani, ate tess and even with RMS of our opinions of what happened from that night..no more teasing of the PBB reactions with the tasks given to them. Its finally over.

 

            I was more excited when I watched the final nomination night wherein alex was the final evictee that give way to the remaining housemates to be finally declared as the Big Four. .excitement overwhelmed me too much that I even shrieked knowing that Robi will be one among them.

 

            And so Saturday came, I disregard my overtime duty and went home immediately to prepare for the night.though I wont be watching the big  night live, it was my first time to watch the full show.

 

            But all my excitement ended, when the winner emerged to be ejay. Okay, he is the winner. But I still bet for Robi, till now. Notice the genuine Wow he had blurted out the moment he went out from the bahay ni kuya. Hay.

 

 

I almost forgot the Rolland Garros Finale. It is Federer vs. Nadal once again! After the three sets, I did not came to notice that it was already over, Nadal winning the 4th grand slam trophy as the King of Clay soared over the coliseum. Am not that satisfied with his winning though, I had much enjoyed his last match with federer last year wherein there is a close fight.No wonder, The 6-2,6-3,6-0 scores of Nadal to Federer this year shows how many unforced errors Federer commited during the entire match.

 

                                                                  

 

Thanks to GMA’s proclamation of Monday as a holiday, the weekend with this bizarre events gave me a time not to become SERYOSO of the results.

 

 Anyways, I can’t wait to check out the Survivor Philippines.  

 

 


pikitmata

Ang walang kamatayang Long lines and siksikan. a pandemonium of people from all ages. Traffic. The heat. The sudden drizzle. Regardless of these hassles, the long wait is over.

 

Iv at least grabbed the chance to catch a glimpse of the World Pyro Olympics Show in Mall of Asia last Saturday, may31, 2008.  despite the ticket price of 150 pax (plus nilibre ko pa sister ko para may kasama, hehe) I was one among those who patiently stayed in the seaside view until 7 30 for the finale.

 

Nakakatuwa ang mga bata na nasa tabi nmin ni joi nung nag umpisa na ang fellowship of the fire. They were so overwhelmed with the loud, thunder-like sound of the fireworks.  Yung isang bata, di na nagkumayaw sa kakaiyak sa pagkabigla.  habang di tinigilan ng tatay niya na kinumbinse na fireworks lamang yon at hindi world war III, tuloy pa rin ang bata sa kangangawa habang nakatingin sa ere.

 

An hour later they announced that  Italy won.  Since I was not able to watch Italy’s show, I just satisfied myself to watch the youtube copy.

 

 

 

 

Like the fellowship of the fire, I was bedazzled by the Philippine exhibition.

 

 

 

Kahit di ko namalayan lumipad yung 300  ko for the tickets, naging maganda naman ang kinalalabasan ng pinagtiyagaan kong show.  Di k rin namalayan na nadeadma ko ang pasanin sa pagcommute pag-uwi (since lahat ng mga tao sa Mall of Asia ay gusto ng magsiuwian agad pagkatapos ng show), at kahit na namiss ko ang eviction ni nan after a one on one nomination showdown nila ni robi sa pbb, ayos lang. pati na rin ang isang oras namin na nakatambay na para bang  nakapark ang mga busses sa kahabaan ng coastal road sa sobrang  trapik  ayos pa rin.

 

Sulit naman.
