You know you've played too much Typing Maniac when you're watching a movie and during the opening credits, your eagle eyes focus on each word that appears on the screen and you have this almost unrestrainable compulsion to type it.

Speaking of movies, I saw Up (for the second time) and District 9 last week. I'm not really a cinemagoer as I prefer ( Read more... )

Didn't feel like being cooped up in the office today so I decided to work at Starbucks. Company airborne access rocks! :D

After a late lunch, I decided to window shop some. My main agenda was to visit Astroplus and look for the P100 Mirrormask DVD that Fatal Kris was raving about in Plurk. I wasn't able to find the Mirrormask DVD but I walked away ( Read more... )

I just love Judd Apatow produced movies! Last night I watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Personally, I like Superbad better. That one got me laughing non-stop! :D But don't get me wrong, Forgetting Sarah Marshall is also endearing in its own sappy, cliched way. There is hope yet for people trying to survive a nasty break-up. Hehe. ;)

Tonight I will ( Read more... )

Thanks for the concern and well wishes, friends. I was just distilling one of the many existential thoughts brewing in my head. You know how my hyperdriven little mind tends to deconstruct things abstract and tangible. And I'm probably still reeling from The Dark Knight which the hubby and I watched last Saturday. The film tackles a lot of issues ( Read more... )

was jampacked with activities; not the stressful kind, thankfully. :)

Friday night, the hubby and I watched The Happening and The Simpsons (movie). You've got to watch something light after seeing something graphically disturbing (but, sadly, the Happening's plot was a letdown, unlike The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable, which I believe are still M. ( Read more... )

I've never couched like a potato in a long time. But since the weather last Sunday was perfect for staying indoors and vegging out, the hubby and I feasted on the following:

1. Once (OMG, it's such a lovely film with an equally lovely, if not lovelier, soundtrack!)
2. 4 episodes of The Big Bang Theory (finally finished the first season, whew!)
3. 1 ( Read more... )

I can smell crunch time in the air, so I had better gather my wits and focus. It's been difficult lately because my concentration has gone on a sabbatical (but pa siya ;P). It's taxing to try and stay focused when you have to force yourself to it. But, like I said, I ain't a master of efficiency for nothing. And I better live up to the hype I've ( Read more... )

Superbad is frikkin' hilarious! ;D Michael Cera (also in Juno) is such a cute, sweet guy. And that Jonah Hill is a natural comic.

Yesterday we watched Todd Solondz's Happiness. There isn't anything remotely merry about the film; it's rather the opposite. I had seen it about 8 years ago and I thought it would be nice get re-acquainted. Some ill- ( Read more... )

Allow me this maudlin moment. Call it mid-life crisis or waxing sentimental, but for the past two weeks, I've been meeting up with friends I haven't seen or talked to in a long time. I'm not dying or anything of the morbid sort, I just wanted to touch base with the people who have been such a big part of the second half of my life thus far. I ( Read more... )

Another of 'em life's-too-short movies. This one's cute and cuddly. :)
