Okay so Warner Bros. had released the official first look of Henry Cavill as the new Superman. Now what? Lol. I’m really not excited about the reboot because I’m really not a fan of Superman. Heehee. Though he’s probably the first superhero I’ve known ‘coz I believe he’s the most popular.
Anyway, I did watch some of the old Christopher Reeve Superman movies plus that of Brandon Routh. But yeah, that just it. Never really gotten to a point of becoming true Superman geek or something. But I did a little fangirling on Tom Welling at Smallville though. I dunno, maybe because it caters more to the demographic where I belong? Lolwhut? I probably would be more excited if they cast Tom Welling instead. And that would’ve been a perfect supplement to Smallville. Hmmm… Okay just a wishful thinking of a Tom Welling fangirl here. No violent reaction please. :p
Anyway, here’s Henry Cavill on his Superman costume.
Bad Teacher, well that’s Elizabeth Halsey — a foul-mouthed, naughty and nasty junior high teacher whose dream of becoming a rich man’s wife crumbled when his no-good Oprah-obsessed fiance dumped her. Boyfriend-less and penniless, Elizabeth was left with no choice but to go back to the teaching job she dreads. Fortunately, as if the heavens saw her woes, she meets the new teacher Scott Delacorte — he’s handsome, he’s rich, definitely her type. Now she’s up on her tricks to get him. But how can she get him notice her? Well, Elizabeth have it all sort out. All she needs is a boob job. Pretty easy huh? I don’t think so. Having no money to cover the operation plus a co-teacher who also eyes on her prospective husband, Elizabeth needs to step up her scheme… err... I mean she needs to step up her game.
Yet another great cover by Boyce Avenue. I love these guys since I first heard them in 2007. Alejandro’s voice is just amazing. And personally, I like Boyce Avenue’s version of this song than the original version sung The Script. But regardless of who sung the song best, For the First Time is a great song. I love it to be honest and I really find it inspiring.
Tough times, I’m pretty sure we’re all having those times. Probably not just at the same time, but yeah we have those days.
Anyway, with all the recession and unemployment crisis going on around the world, this song is very timely. And just like what the song is trying to say, you should not give up no matter how many times you tumbled down on the dirt. Always get back up, shake it off and keep moving forward.
You see, these hard times, they aren’t forever. They too have an end. We just have to be strong and carry on because it always get better in the end.
To be honest, I was quite disappointed with the movie. I dunno, maybe because I expected too much? I mean I’ve been babbling about this movie to my sister and how much I’d love to see it since the day I saw its trailer on TFC and when I finally am able to see it I just found myself bored.
Eugene somewhat reminds me of Nelson Moss(Keanu Reeves) from the movie Sweet November(and coincidentally, Charlize Theron is also dying in the movie :p) — a proud, competitive, overbearing smart ass who thinks highly of himself. Then he meets his match, Raffy, probably the first person that have showed disinterest on him. And how quickly it is for a man who finds almost the entire female species not good enoughfor him, to fall in love to someone whom he just spent a few days of somewhat extreme adventures with (guys talking about zipline adventures here ’kay and oh if you’re wondering where they shoot those scenes, it’s in Dahilayan Adventure Park in Bukidnon =D), that’s totally out of character.
Hmmm… Well maybe not. Heehee. Sabi nga, pag tinamaan ka ni mr. kupido, tinamaan ka.Mabilis na kung mabilis na siya ma-in love.
Love comes when you least expect it. It’s like suddenly… Boom! and then sparks fly everywhere. Before you know it, you’re already in love. And it only takes that one magical moment and you’re changed forever.
Kinda like what happened to Landon, he’s so mesmerized to the beauty in front of him and he suddenly had the urge to kiss the beauty that blinded him and on that one magical moment he knew he’s in love with Jamie and that had been enough to change him to be a better man — much like what Raffy did to Eugene. And if you can’t still figure out who Landon and Jamie are, I’m talking about the about the characters in the movie A Walk to Remember who again the female lead is dying of leukemia just as much Raffy is dying too, only with lymphoma but still it’s cancer all the same. Heehee.
Too many cliches in the story line that must’ve been the reason why I didn’t enjoy the film much. Different setting, different characters but the story is just the same. Oh well…
Most of the time, I find myself scared of the unknown. I worry a lot. I overthink things. Sigh. Oh well, it’s a new month. So I guess, I’ll just hope for the better. So yeah please, dear August, be awesome, ‘kay?
This is what I wore for my friend’s baby shower. Normally, I’m just a shirt and jeans type of gal but since SoCal’s starting to feel warm and I’m kind of in a mood to dress-up so I opted for an off-shoulder top, khaki shorts and black fitflop sandals.
I also accessorized a bit (cross necklace and bangles both from forever21) and I played a little with my make-up, well just emphasizing the eyes. Need more practice though, lining the eye is harder than I thought. My hand still gets a tad bit shaky. =D
So yesterday, me and my sister went to my high school friend’s baby shower and to my shame, we were the very last guests to arrive. Hahaha. In fact, all the other guests were already leaving by the time we reach the venue. So I was like saying to those guests I saw on my way in “Oh I was just dropping off my gift!” and on their eyes you see like “WTH? Do you know what time it is? The party’s over!” Lol. Okay Shame on me I know. But I’m really having problems with my sleeping habit. I slept like 5-6 in the morning already so I woke up super late (Excuses! :p) and I also didn’t expect will be caught up in a heavy traffic. Well I know, that it’s always traffic in the I-5 area but I didn’t expect it to be that jammed like it was that day plus I honestly didn’t know that the 91 East traffic is just as worst. It was our first time in that part of SoCal we don’t know much of the traffic situation there. We know no other route and we only have our Magellan GPS to guide us to our destination. And as always, expect Maggie (as what we fondly call our GPS since the voice is a SHE and no we can’t like change the voice of our GPS to that of Yoda’s :p) to always give you the easiest route but never the quickest way. Heehee.
Me and my very much preggers friend. We've been friends since High School
I’ve seen Paranormal Activity 1 and 2. Though I vaguely remember the details now. Lulz. But yeah, I remember liking the 1st movie more than 2nd one. Though I still couldn’t figure out what really haunted the two sisters. Anyway we’ll find out soon and finally we’ll know what really started it all because the third installment of the hit Paranormal Activity is set to have its release on October.
Maria la del barrio was suppose to air last summer but due to some unknown (well it’s unknown to me at least… heehee) reasons it was push back to a later date. But now the wait is over ‘coz finally its here. And after many months of delay, Erich Gonzales and Enchong Dee’s Maria La Del Barrio is set to have it’s first run on local television this coming August. Probably to replace Mula sa Puso since it’s ending in three weeks. Anyway, I just hope the local version of Maria la del barrio won’t disappoint us. I really liked the Mexican version. And oh, Maria’s head accessory really reminds of the crown Jughead (Archie Comics) so fondly wear on his head. Heehee.
Maria la del barrio is the Philippine version of the Thalia’s Mexican hit Telenovela with the same title. Local version stars one of ABS-CBN’s hottest love team Erich Gonzales and Enchong Dee and directed by Rory B. Quintos. Watch Full Trailer of Maria la del barrio below.
