Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

My sister and I decided to go to the mall today to unwind. After shopping for clothes and shoes, we watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. The movie started a few weeks ago that’s why the movie theater wasn’t full and a lot of seats were vacant. I wasn’t able to read the book that’s why I have no idea what’s going to happen next. I really love Harry Potter movies because of the scenes and costumes were so amazing. Sometimes I’m wondering how someone could imagine that magical place and the people/cast were also magnificent. I noticed this movie was a love story and only few magic/fight scenes. I couldn’t believe Dumbledore died! I hope Harry did some hocus pocus magic so that Dumbledore won’t fall down drastically. But then everything must have happened so fast and Harry was still in awe, he wasn’t able to think straight. I almost cried because I believe Dumbledore was the greatest wizard of all time, and now that he’s gone, who else could ever replace him? I wish I just waited for this movie to come out in the video. I felt spending Php160.00 on this movie was not worth it.

Gerald Anderson and Wentworth Miller

I have not watched “Tayong Dalawa” for a long time. It’s probably the dragging theme and scenes that made me want to change the channel. But then, I was able to watch it last night and was surprised on how Gerald Anderson looked like. He made me remember someone, a foreign actor with the same enigmatic charm on screen.

I felt ABS-CBN was making our Gerald into a Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller). Did you notice it too? His looks matched exactlylike that of Scofield’s, especially the scenes when Gerald was sent to jail. I have nothing against Channel 2 though, because Gerald really looked great and has somehow transcend from the teeny bopper “boy next door” type into a more mature and adult role. Having said that, maybe we can expect more mature roles from him in the future. Could he be the next Piolo Pascual or Diether Ocampo? Let’s find out 3 to 5 years from now, shall we?

Michael Jackson’s Board at The Block, SM City North EDSA

It’s my sister’s birthday today and my family decided to dine out again. We went to SM City North EDSA. I was wondering why there are so many people at The Block. And then I saw Michael Jackson’s board at their activity area.

It was very really difficult to take a clear photo of the board because there were a lot of people passing by. Good thing I was able to find a good timing for my shot.

This Michael Jackson figure is really amazing!

I was able to take a closer shot of what people have to say to Michael.

This really proved that people from all walks of life definitely loved Michael so much.

Goodbye Michael Jackson

I couldn’t believe the musical superstar King of Pop Michael Jackson already died. He was just 50 years old, too young indeed. His death was much sensationalized, considering it happened last week. We can see and hear news around the world, talking about him and his legacy. The reports said he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is still unknown. For me, it’s really a mystery. Too bad he died early, I believe he can make more good music. I bet there will be a lot of people who will attend his funeral. It’s the death of a legend and we will surely miss him, rest in peace, Michael.

Angels and Demons Movie in Gateway

My mom had a free invitation to watch at Gateway (Araneta Center, Cubao, Quezon City) Cineplex 10’s Platinum Cinema. Their first class exclusive lounge makes you think you’re inside a hotel’s (mini) lobby.



The movie theater has 40 La-Z-Boy reclining leather chairs, free popcorn and drinks! The cinema was so huge, we have a little glass table in between our chairs for food and drinks. Together with my sister, it was out first time to watch a movie there. Good thing my mom’s tickets were free, otherwise, we have to pay for it with our own money, not to mention it’s really pricey! When we entered the cinema, it’s almost full. We weren’t able to get the best spot, but still, it’s for free. I reclined my chair a bit and raised my legs up. Oh, this is the life!



Angels & Demons is the most awaited follow-up to the famous “The Da Vinci Code” starring Tom Hanks as Professor Robert Langdon. The movie revolves around the historical site of the Vatican and the discovery of a secret brotherhood, the Illuminati. It’s definitely action-packed that’s why in my opinion, the “The Da Vinci Code” is better.

Boys Over Flowers

After the phenomenal hit Meteor Garden, ABS-CBN brings back the popularity of the story. It is a new Tagalized version of the most awaited Koreanovela of the year, Boys Over Flowers.

I’m so excited about this new version, apart from the first two: Taiwanese (Meteor Garden) and Japanese (Hana Yori Dango). I’ve been reading a lot of feedbacks and most people say this Koreanovela is the BEST adaptation ever! Aside from the four good looking leading men, they really exude the personality and aura of genuine elite sons. Let’s find out how Pinoys are going to love this new game of love and friendship between Goo Jun Pyo and Yoon Ji Hoo!
