I Survived Twilight

Stilted plot, an oftentimes insipid script, and the dialogue...THE DIALOGUE!
It was a miracle I got through it - no, wait - i absolutely had to skip some parts. The vampires sparkling in the sunlight scene was corny. ew. Liked the baseball scene, though. Peter Facinelli's as white as bondpaper, Jasper has this constipated look stamped on his face (it seems he's fighting back some hunger pangs since he's a new 'vegetarian' but all I can see is bowel obstruction), and the love story is zombified - just working on the barest of logic, and of course...Bella's body odor.

Big Bang Baby! One More Time!

I'm finishing my 205 paper. Dapat this week tapos na ito PARA WALA NA AKONG UTANG KAY SIR JOSE, PUNYETA!

*ahem*

So for the meantime I'm leaving a few choice vids of my fave "Big Bang Theory" character, Sheldon Cooper, Ph.D....the brilliant but obssessive-compulsive and socially inept theoretical physicist. Enjoy...













And finally...the piece de resistance...



Nakakasingit pa rin ng series kahit busy, hehehe

Neeeeeeeerds!

Just got back from my Anthro Theories class and I realized that my seatmates are nerds!

This all started when Liza, one of my classmates brought in a book on philosophy and Battlestar Galactica last week. My eyes automatically fixed on the thick BSG book and I kept stealing glances throughout the lecture. We struck up a conversation and she told me that someone told her about watching The Wizard of Oz while playing Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. I told her that I'd give her a copy of the Pink Floyd album. I also borrowed her Anthro theory book - studies muna before BSG hehe

This week, we got around to discussing BSG episodes and Arnel joined in on our conversation. It turns out Arnel is also a Scifi series fan - having watched Star Trek TNG, Star Trek Voyager, and (unbelievably) Enterprise. And (more unbelievable for me) he liked Enterprise! WTF!? hahaha

I also found out that Arnel also watched the other Scifi series I watched: Babylon 5, Farscape, and *gasp* Earth: Final Conflict!

Earth fucking Final Conflict! And I thought I was the only one in this archipelago...

We are going to have a one week break from Anthro but I can't wait for next meeting...Liza told me she'd be on a BSG marathon and Arnel said he'd buy the DVDs in Quiapo. This is going to be one interesting discussion next meeting...

Rock Me Amadeus!



Just watched Adventureland starring Jesse Eisenberg and *gasp* Kristen Stewart of Twilight notoriety.

I liked the film. I liked Stewart and Eisenberg's acting in this movie. And I LOVED the soundtrack.

I was playing "Name that Tune" throughout the movie and I think I managed to get 4 out of 12 right. The movie featured songs from Lou Reed, JOurney, David Bowie, The Jesus and Mary Chain (interesting choice of "Taste of Cindy") and *gasp* The Outfield! I haven't heard The Outfield since I was in elementary mainly due to my cousins' tapes that were blasting from our old stereo - este - cassette player pala, to be more specific. The post title is the song by Falco which kept playing over and over during the movie, much to the lead character's chagrin. Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Amadeus! Rock me Amadeus!

Just the right dose of humor, drama and nostalgia. Let's party like it's the 80s!
