First of all, I would like to welcome myself back to blogging! Since classes are suspended today, I have time to relax and to blog. :)
Yes, it`s been a while since I last posted here due to different reasons. One of these is that college life has been eating all my time. My freshmen year was not this busy that's why I was surprised to get bombarded with A LOT of school works. We had some reports, quizzes and a 50-page narrative for Writing for TV. I barely have time to relax but nonetheless, at least I'm learning a lot and I'm getting good grades. :)
But despite the tiring days of school, I still got the chance to attend the 8th Cinemalaya at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. I had planned to go after watching several trailers of the films that are part of the festival. I chose to watch Sta. Niña since my mom likes Coco Martin and its trailer made me curious what it's all about. So since I don't have classes during Fridays, I marked July 27 as one of my ultimate vacay day. :D After we went to PhilHealth and DFA for some agenda, we went straight to CCP. When I was about to buy tickets at the Box Office, I found out that Sta. Niña which will be shown that night was already sold-out. So we bought tickets for the following day's showing. I was really sick that Saturday but I still urged to attend my first class. I took the LRT 2 & LRT 1 and rode an orange jeep in Vito Cruz. When we were about to go inside the theater, I saw my former classmate Ranne. She was with her dad. The movie was great. If you like mainstream movies which is about love and other dragging topics, then this is not something that you would like. You might find it boring and all. But in my perception, I really liked it. The story was original. It was about a man who found his dead child (ten years later) whose coffin had been carried away by the lahar. But what's surprising about it was that baby girl still looks as if she died just days ago. That man kept his child in their house. Days later, there have been some visitors who visit Marikit (the child). They have been praying to the child to make them free from their diseases. In the succeeding days, they have thanked Pol (the father of the baby, played by Coco Martin) for the miracle that his child had brought them. When the mother of the baby (Madel, the cousin of Pol, played by Alessandra de Rossi) saw that their child had been found, she went to Pol's house. They had some arguments because Madel wants to bury the child and make her rest in peace but Pol insists to keep the child because of the alleged miracle it has been doing. And I think I have been spoiling you too much so I'll end my summary here. :) I think it will still be shown in UP Film Institute this week. :D Anyway, before I got out of CCP, I saw RAIMUND MARASIGAN. Yes, one of the members of the epic band, Eraserheads. I was literally just a few centimeters from him. \m/

- Fun.
This blog was created August of 2008. Putting up an account here wasn't really on my plans. It's just that I was so crazy about Chris Tiu before and he runs a blog so I thought of creating my own as well. Years have passed, and I have grown yet I still keep my personal stuff here. Yes, things may change but one thing's for sure -- I will continue running this blog as long as I can.
