Now Showing.

Not so long ago, I was a movie buff.


From mainstream to indie films, I have watched movies which people would never think I would watch. Like for example, a Spanish comedy-drama with an R rating. (I think that was over sharing.)


Just like writing, I came to a point that I was either lazy or too busy to go watch a movie. I swear I suck at movies now. Recalling 2010, I have only seen one movie in the movie house. (And no, I wasn't even able to watch new movies in pirated DVDs or even downloaded from the internet.) Just one new movie for 2010. How pathetic could I be?


I don't really know why. Maybe I got tired of the same plots. Maybe I was waiting for it to come out on cable or local tv. Maybe I just don't have time to watch movies anymore. It's sad, really.


Tonight, thank you cable TV, I am on my 4th movie. Apparently, the first three are Tagalog movies. The current one is a horror/thriller I am not really fond of. Wala lang, sayang naman binayad sa cable, papanoorin ko na lang.


Four movies in a row is another first for me for 2011. Even if it is on cable. For the past month, my TV time was spent on series, news, MTV, and prolly cartoons. Since none of my favorite shows are airing today, and I am just sick of watching Glee over and over again, I sat down to watch a movie. (Actually I was planning on watching Black Swan but I still can't get around to doing it.)


I have suggested movies for other people to watch. I have made plans to watch certain movies with some people. But I still haven't gone to watching movies. So tonight, aside from rebuilding my music library, I am going to raid Alabang to buy DVDs of movies. (And no, downloading isn't an option for me. I don't have that much patience to wait for a file to download and that would just kill the internet I am sharing with two other users.)


I need movie suggestions. I don't care if they're too cheesy, too scary, to boring or just plain baduy, but I really want to watch movies. A lot of movies. So come on, suggest whatever movie out there should I buy first.

On Writing.

I think I suck at being a writer.


Twitter has taken the best of me.


I hated one liner slash micro blogging before. Because I do not consider one-liners a blog.


But I have to admit, I was enjoying Twitter. And with the app on my phone, I find it really convenient. So much that I do not know anymore what to write here.


I should go to Twitter rehab.

2011, We Meet.

Because December last year was too hectic I couldn't even find time to sleep, I am (on the 5th year, I must say) declaring my new year's resolution to get seven hours of sleep every night.

Which means I shouldn't be writing now and just shut down the laptop and go to bed. But I just can't. God, I miss writing, and doing it at the speed of thought. But I don't have time for that now. Or maybe I'm just too lazy again. Or probably there's just a lot on my plate for me to handle.

Oh well. First things first.

I am definitely one of those less fortunate people stuck with slow metabolism. And yes, I gained a few extra pounds over the holidays despite all the things I was doing. Stress-eating daw. Oh well. I am trying hard to get back in shape.

I used to do the Dance Revo on the PlayStation to keep in shape. It's fun, not boring and it's made for the young techie generation. Which is why I was able to lose 2 inches of my waistline in 3 weeks before. Now I really need to find time to hook up the console and move stuff around the house so I can play. I need to lose these inches I'm gaining.

Next: eating habits. I have poor ones. It's way to inhumane that I am now having problems with my digestive system and being the stubborn kid that I am, I refuse to see a doctor to find out what is really wrong. Now I'm starting to turn myself into a picky eater. Picky in a sense that I always read the nutritional content, particularly calories. Not that I always say no to high calorie, high fat, really bad food for me, I just said I always READ. But I try my best to avoid bad stuff. (You can see me mostly in the snacks section of the grocery store reading. And ending up getting chips.) Apparently, I haven't eaten a McDonald'd Cheeseburger and fries in months until last week. I just had to have it because I was craving.

Now that's a start: learning to avoid fast food. =D

Since I'm looking for ways to exercise and eat right, I am now looking for a role model/inspiration/motivation to live healthy. No, I'm not shallow to use a bikini as my inspiration. I'm over that. I want something bigger. That's where I'm stuck. I would usually switch to healthy living because a) I want to fit in this killer outfit; b) I want this guy to notice me; c) my console/exercise equipment is not a piece of art that's for display only; and d) because the doctor told me I need to lose weight.

I want a bigger motivation. I need something to push me. There must be something out there that should tell me I must be living healthy. But I am stuck.

So how do I begin now?

Hallooooooooo 2011! :D

You know that feeling when you're just drunk enough to talk and talk and talk all night but not yet drunk enough to pass out? I am on that cliff right now.

But all's well. Hellloooooooooooooooooooooooo 2011!

Though, I must say I felt the Crhsitmas celebration more than New Year's, I still had a blast tonight, nonetheless.

Didn't start with a big bang for the year, but I'm definitely sure this year will be something I'll be looking forward to.



And since I can't write decently now, (you have no idea how many times I hit the backspace button just to get the last sentence right, so forgive for any other errors) here's something to show my big bang for 2011:
