Shaolin Girl

Woot! This one’s an awesome film. Since I don’t get to open my FS profile and add a review, I guess this nice film should fill in some of my blog’s pages.

Earlier, I lied about going somewhere (yup, the typical student excuse) and doing other things than what I said I was doing. Oh okay, so there I was, on an early date than the usual since school’s the excuse. Skipping all the details from 9 onwards, I better tell something I liked in the film I watched four hours later.

The movie was said to be a sequel (yes, if not a direct sequel) of Shaolin Soccer. There were Japanese and Chinese characters in the movie. My boyfriend and I noticed how they placed the subs and the language they speak, and so the conclusion was made: it really is a collaboration of Japan and Mainland.

The girls in the story have different distinct characteristics that make it quite interesting. The male characters are cranky and some are uptight. There seems to be shoujo-ai in the entire film (showing girl-girl relationships in a loving manner—but not sexually and romantically explicit). This makes it more tempting to watch, since usually we find a romantic interaction between a girl and a boy in every film.

The whole movie showed how important Shaolin is in spirit (okay, fine, that’s not it! :P), meaning camaraderie and team work is the key to success. The dark and the light is then again the usual elements in the story, besides its lacrosse touch.

Overall, this film made me feel happy today. Of course, it’s a date after all. :)

Oh yeah, from this day onwards, I promise not to lie about doing projects and hooking up with my boyfriend in reality. Swear. I feel guilty.

 

Rekindling

I did this, I did that. Nothing seems to make sense anymore. All I know is that I enjoy the present that much. But still, there’s not a thing that I did that really filled up the emptiness and erased the thoughts that continue to linger in my subconscious and conscious being: I am not really happy.

You might wonder why I’ve come up to this statement when you see me laughing, smiling, having the fun things in life, enjoying, receiving many things from others, benefiting from others’ pains, getting more and more of the things I want and I desired, and finally having most of the things anyone would wish for. Just like this sentence, my emotional well-being is not as briefly stated as it should be, since it really is on a platform balance right now—tipped to the left. It’s more on the negating feelings of loneliness where I should not be inclined to. Everything just seems to be topsy-turvy in my POV, but in fact, they all run smoothly. I don’t feel anything has increased nor matured in my life. It’s not easy always having the instinct to think of other things beyond what they appear to be—thinking outside the box.

This “BOX” where I am situated and unable to move forward still locks me, but my mind already went ahead and had gone too far: without me knowing if it is really true or not. This thinking beyond stimulates a good environment for innovation, but hinders the enjoyment of present situations. Whether the thinking outcome is good or is totally bad, it will affect me and my mindset. It’s like I would prefer to think of good things that are outside the world I am in rather than what I currently experience—thinking of the worst scenarios that could be or would be happening. It’s a bad habit, I tell you. You would be constantly stressed of things you don’t need to be stressful of. It’s like a gift, but then it’s a curse as well. I don’t know how to get rid of it completely, and though I want to remove it, whenever I am right I don’t want to change.

I really want to change my perspective of the things and facts around me. If not today, maybe tomorrow… or till I finally get a hold of my fears.

Busy?

It’s been days since I last updated my blog. What have I been doing for the past few days is a big SECRET. I’ve been involving myself in a lot of things lately that is why I almost neglected my best friend—my blog. :)

It has been rather stressful during the last week. As the finals week comes closer, I would want to involve more in acads than what I’ve always been doing. Besides, I found out that the rather stressing things in my life are the things that go around in the net: all those things I read, see, and perceive here make me think a lot about trivial things. They make me feel bad, and so when I think of other outcomes that could happen since I don’t know everything that happens when I leave the desk… they haunt my conscious and unconscious thinking. I’d rather be alone without checking my mail, kenchan YM, Plurk and other social networks (but FB) than checking every single detail those people post in their Plurks and YM status messages.

I realize I don’t really need to know everything that occurs to the people I know through net. It is still better to have the personal interaction (although the net creates a lot of uncertainties since you don’t know what’s really behind the letters and the screen itself). than to base everything in net talk. I know both net and personal could be manipulated, but in the personal interaction you get to have the edge than that person you are engaged with in a conversation. It is easy to see the intention through simple situational tests you can put into action with that person.

This technique involves good powers of observation and of course the sense and sensibility to the things that revolve between your subject and you.

I tried it a lot of times and still, I’m confused in the state where I am in.

I don’t think I could continue it. :) I better steer away from negative thoughts, anyway.

Happiness

English title, pero Filipino content. Bakit ganon, kung ano yung malayo sa’yo, at kung ano yung hindi pwede, dun ka pa mas masaya. Haha. Ewan ko lang ha, pero nawe-weirdohan parin ako kasi hanggang ngayon kung saan saan ako naghahanap ng kaligayahan. Nandiyan lang pala. Haha, ika nga e it’s unexpected.

Pero sobrang labo nito, gaya ng pagkalabo ng maraming bagay. Okay. So sabi ko kanina di nalang ako magbabasa. E di ko naman mapigilan. Tapos yon, weird ulet ng feeling. Buti nga okay pa ko e. Tapos inisip ko lang yon, natuwa naman ako nang todo. Haha. Parang kailan lang sabi kong ano. Ganyan. Haha. Isang tao lang makakaintindi nito e, kahit nga siya di nya gets. Siyempre masagwa. Bigla tuloy tumugtog sa isip ko yung isang kantang nasa playlist ko na for years. Bagay ulet. Bagay.

Ahaha. Sabi ko na nga ba sa sarili kong sinabi ko na yan dati e. Bakit kasi sinabi ko na nga e di ko pa sinabihan ulit ang sarili ko na manahimik nalang? Uy, talking about ambiguity is annoying. Haha. Well sorry I love ambiguity and the like, gaya ng vagueness at blurriness. Hui magkakaiba yun ah. Haha. Kalimutan na nga yan. Miss ko na tong blog, at yon. Haha. Puro haha, di naman masaya :| anu kaya yon?

Oo na sige na wag ka nang magulo. Tumigil ka na diyan at baka kung ano pa magawa ko… pero take note, mas matino na ko compared before. Wait… di pala. Mas tanga. Haha. Sorry naman!

Inignore kita noon. Kaya ko pa rin yon no. Tignan mo lang haha. Baha na kung baha. Sabaw na kung sabaw. Lahat na, tirahin mo. Joke kamo? Joke mukha mo. Haha. Woot. Hehe.

Pero seryoso, namiss din kita.

Oo nga. Nakakapanghinayang to. Too late. Too late. Kahit sabihin mo pa yan ngayon, wala na nga. Wala na. Wala. Wala. Wala, wala, wala! Wla na kong nararamdaman. Hmp. Next time na mag-usap ulit tayo, sige, I’ll try not to avoid you. Pero eto lang masasabi ko… sana get lost. Haha. Bakit kasi ngayon lang e no. Tch, pagkatapos ng lahat… ganyan pa.

*di mo naman to mababasa e*

*sarap maglabas ng sama ng loob sa blog*

Rolling Scotch Tape

If the weird things he’s done didn’t come new to me, well this afternoon, I was so wrong. This time, he did something weirder. Yes, weirder than the usual. When I saw him come out of room 301, he had this tiny bundle or rolled thingy in his right hand. I observed him at the corner of my eye as we conversed. True to what I think it was, it was actually a rolled scotch tape, and it was PERFECTLY round. I would want to laugh at it, but I didn’t.

We had fun with the “rolled ball”, and we played “catch” with it. It was silly. It won’t even “jump” since it’s just a mass of scotch tape. Anyway, I enjoyed it.
