team jacob


Why I like Jacob:

No, not his abs. I think he’s too buff, and it’s too much for his age. I would prefer a leaner Jacob/Taylor Lautner. Now to the reasons why I like him more than Edward:

1)    His skin color. He looks so Pinoy. Love it! haha

2)    His haircut. Clean and boyish :)

3)    He’s fun and funny. Two different and very important traits.

4)    He’s light. Enough said.

There. I actually enjoyed the movie more than the book. Plus Dakota Fanning was great. I hope to see more of her and Victoria in the next 2 movies.

24th

 

Many the Miles

Sara Bareilles

 

There's too many things that I haven't done yet
Too many sunsets
I haven't seen
You can't waste the day wishing it'd slow down
You would've thought by now
I'd have learned something

I made up my mind when I was a young girl
I've been given this one world
I won't worry it away
But now and again I lose sight of the good life
I get stuck in a low light
But then Love comes in

How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and I'll be happy to follow you Love

I do what I can wherever I end up
To keep giving my good love
And spreading it around
Cause I've had my fair share of take care and goodbyes
I've learned how to cry
And I'm better for that

Red letter day and I'm in a blue mood
Wishing that blue would just carry me away
I've been talking to God don't know
If it's helping or not
But surely something has got to got to got to give
Cause I can't keep waiting to live

Nostalgia

 

'Teddy told me that in Greek, nostalgia literally means the pain from an old wound.

It’s a twinge in your heart, far more powerful than memory alone.

This device isn’t a space ship; it’s a time machine.

It goes backwards, forwards.

It takes us to a place where we ache to go again.

It’s not called the Wheel.

It’s called a Carousel.

It lets us travel the way a child travels.

Around and around and back home again, to a place where we know we are loved.'

 

-          Mad Men Season 1, Episode 13, “The Wheel”

Don Draper’s pitch for the Kodak ‘wheel’ slide projector.

day 488 and may 23rds

 

I gave in.

I watched 'Love without Talking' and '500 Days of Summer'.

I think people, like me, love this movie because we can relate. It somehow helps us understand, or somehow gives us an idea, of why things turned out the way they did. It's just there really, we just have to look back. Not just the happy memories, but be brave enough to visit those other moments that will give us the answers.

I have two favorite scenes.

First was the "Expectations" and "Reality" scene. Ouch. Enough said.

Second was that of Day 488. It's what people wish or hope to have at the end of it all. I also think that this scene is what makes this movie a movie because only a few people get to have this moment. I think people are scared to know the reasons why it never worked out. And this scene provided the answer which will really hurt, but will give people hope in love again.

But like what I believe in, we really shouldn't wait for this day to get to Day 500. Just like what the voice over said: "Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin, and they end, with no lasting memories made in between.  Most days have no impact on the course of a life. May 23rd was a Wednesday…"

May we all have our May 23rds until… J

 

*Plus Joseph Gordon-Levitt singing karaoke = hot, for me at least. There was something there. (angge smile/kilig) haha

the two things i really really love

 

Traveling. It's not just the wonderful places that get me to my feet, it's more of the feeling of moving and of change. It's the feeling of being in a place I've never been to. It's the peculiar things that excite and scare me at the same time. Going to Manila Zoo at age 20 was exciting for me. haha yes, it's that simple for me.

 

Photography. Discovering the world and beauty of photography was a by-product of traveling. What I love about photography is how it makes everything, every moment more beautiful. I'm not really the technical type when it comes to photography, I'm more of a subject- or moment-type of photographer.  Or I'm just really lazy to think and calculate before taking a photo, because the moment may be over soon. It started with my cellphone camera, borrowing digital cameras from friends, and then Sundays my Nikon D40. :)  (hopefully, a telephoto lens soon.)

 

These are the two things that I really really love. :)

 

Mindanao, I'll see you December. :)
