i speak...
i'm an open type of person. i speak out my emotions
usually pero i can be very private at times. i love to
dance and to sing
and i love the company of my friends and my family.
i'm an overly talkative, compassionate dreamer, a
romantic at heart.
i'm a writer too.
words i'd love to live by/tara-inspired
i will create my day
i will create my reality, moment to moment
i will change my mind
i will open myself to the infinite realm of possibility
i will leave room for auspicious coincidence
i will not decide what is next
i will not decide what is real
i will not expect
i will have confidence
i will boycott self-doubt
i will have confidence to go beyond hesitation
i will not be afraid to be afraid
i will remember who I am
oh, yeah. i will also have fun...
i love...

csi guy and the half-blood mascarinas
Friday, July 29, 2005
i've been very busy these past few days, sleeping late, waking at the afternoons. i read the 6th harry potter book, watched the 2-hour season ender of csi: vegas, watched more of those soaps, series and lifestyle programs, etc. i did a lot, sure, but none of them i could definitely say was productive.
i finished harry potter and the half blood prince in approximately 24 hours. i was supposed to borrow the book from my blockmate and friend rhay but her boyfriend wasn't finished with it yet when we last met. fortunately, although with guilt (with a capital G) gnawing off me once in a while, one of my friends online had a (most likely unauthorized) soft copy of the novel which she uploaded, so i got a hold of it. so much for the NO TO PIRACY concert i attended two weeks ago at eastwood. honestly, i'm not even sure whether it was the real full edition, but it had the details from rhay's spoilers i was reluctant to hear but did hear, so i'm assuming it was the real one.
i found the book more bearable than the 5th installment, more exciting even. partly because harry was not as angst-ridden as before and because in book 5, sirius, my favorite character died, breaking my heart. i actually cried while immersed on that scene, and i wanted so much to cast every curse on the killer, bellatrix. anyhow, book 6 also had a lot of romance stirring finally amongst the characters. i caught myself smiling while reading a couple of times. i'm really a sucker for feeling kilig. the unexpected pairings will really kind of lift your spirits. you will also realize that harry and the gang are already grown ups in the book. the downsides of harry's battle, well, it must be either because i already knew it from the spoilers or that i've had been immune to the disappointments from book 5 that didn't feel that down while reading. also, it was needless to say that the ending was hanging. another year, years maybe, of waiting for the grand finale of harry potter's world. on the other hand, i'll be waiting for the handsome daniel radcliffe in the theaters for the fourth potter movie.
speaking of waiting, i've been on the watch for the brilliant csi: vegas season ender directed by none other than quentin tarantino. as you may know, i've been giving myself large doses of the three csi shows in axn every week, and this season ender was not something i'd be happy to miss. i've been having these fantasies of being a forensic chemist, though i'm really bad with dead people and chemistry.
i was actually getting scared on how morbid the episode would be considering tarantino's flair in making audiences really uncomfortable with amputating body parts. just watch the two kill bills and pulp fiction for vivid reference. plus, i don't really want anybody from the crew to die (i knew nick stokes was the one in trouble on the episode and the others have to find him before he dies). amongst the three csi shows, vegas was my favorite, not only because it was the original, but also because i find it more realistic, the characters were also more easy to relate to and to believe that they knew all those stuff they know. and also because i love the dorky, corky and adorable former lab chemist and now field detective greg who, as his colleague told him at last night's epi was getting more trendier as time goes by (and handsomer too).
the screenplay and concept was also by tarantino so there were signature tarantino black and white shots, satirical quips, and the weird songs. and i wasn't wrong about the morbid parts too, there was a guy who blasts himself to pieces and nick getting covered and bitten by fire ants and oh, did i mention nick dreaming that he was being autopsied with the coroners playing around with his internal organs? real cute, huh? but as always, the case was solved and stokes was rescued. i was touched seeing grissom, catherine, sarah, warrick and greg really emotionally tortured at nick's fate and doing all they can, though panicky, teary-eyed and all. over-all i had a good-time. as you can see i'm a sucker for happy endings too.
p.s.
i got a call from accenture yesterday, which was a big thorn off of my chest. no, i'm not hired yet, but i'm hoping i'll soon be. after a massive self-doubt and worthlessness issue, i finally got the second interview. God is really funny and wise.
also, i've put up a rant absorber at my posts so you can comment on each. rants are welcome everytime. :D
