Ehem! How will i begin writing this entry? I really always have difficulty starting my intro. I hope this crap will do.

This isn’t just another movie review (note the title… I haven’t even seen the movie). It’s more of my future plans. Isn’t it redundant to say "future plans"?

Today, I am here in the office. Working, as useless…sounds pathetic to me. Tsk tsk tsk…

Tomorrow, umm… I wouldn’t be here. It’s a Sunday. Most probably, I’ll do my laundry, and may be clean my room. After that, huh!? I don’t know. Eat my lunch. umm… after that? sleep? I guess so. Until it’s already dark outside. Then I’ll have my dinner at 7pm. Then may be sleep again… waiting for tomorrow to come.

But I got no work on Monday. Now what? (sigh!) Another boring day… tsk tsk tsk… better count the lizards on the ceiling but even them… they have deserted my room. May be they got something else to do.

Such a boring life I got… (sigh… sigh again)

On Nov. 30 (Wedn), I’ll be watching Bamboo’s concert. Don’t care if I’ll be off alone in the crowd. (Liboga adto oi). Already got a ticket the other. On, Dec. 9, if Disney will have its worldwide premier for NARNIA, then may be i’L go out and watch it. On Dec. 10, Hale’s coming to CDO so another 250 bucks for that concert.

Hahaha… someone’s trying to get a life in here. Knew her? Met her? Heard of her? I know her.

Reflection   

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you’ll never know me
Every day
It’s as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What’s inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don’t know?
Must I pretend that I’m
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

There’s a heart that must be
Free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I’m forced to hide?
I won’t pretend that I’m
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

Mulan_002 like Mulan. I thought I’m like her. But I fould out that I am no her. She’s tougher than I am. But I am not a coward. The only thing, I guess, that i can be proud of against her, she’s a legend… I am for real.

Betty Warren:
Don’t disregard our traditions just because you’re subversive.

Katherine Watson:
Don’t disrespect this class just because you’re married.

Betty Warren:
Don’t disrespect me just because you’re not.

Katherine Watson:
Come to class, do the work, or I’ll fail you.

Betty Warren:
If you fail me, there will be consequences.

Katherine Watson:
Are you threatening me?

Betty Warren:
I’m educating you.

Katherine Watson:
That’s my job.



Katherine Watson
:
I thought that I was headed to a place that would turn out tomorrow’s leaders, not their wives.


Katherine Watson:
Look beyond the paint. Let us try to open our minds to a new idea.

Betty Warren: Dear Betty, I came to Wellesley because I wanted to make a difference.
But to change for others is to lie to yourself. My teacher, Katherine
Watson, lived by her own definition and would not compromise that, not
even for Wellesley. I dedicate this, my last editorial, to an
extraordinary woman, who lived by example and compelled us all to see
the world through new eyes. By the time you read this, she’ll be
sailing to Europe, where I know she’ll find new walls to break down,
and new ideas to replace them with.
[snapshot]

Betty Warren:
I’ve heard her called a quitter for leaving and aimless wanderer. But
not all who wander are aimless, especially those who seek truth beyond
traditions, beyond definition, beyond the image. I’ll never forget you.



Betty Warren
:
[in Betty's second editorial]
Wellesley girls who are married have become quite adept at balancing
their obligations. One hears such comments, as - I’m able to baste the
chicken with one hand and outline the paper with the other. While our
mothers were called to workforce for Lady Liberty. It is our duty- nay,
obligation to reclaim our place in the home, bearing the children that
will carry our traditions into the future. One must pause to consider
why Miss Katherine Watson, instructor in the art history department has
decided to declare war on the holy sacrament of marriage. Her
subversive and political teachings encourage our Wellesley girls to
reject the roles they were born to fill.



Joan Brandwyn
:
It was my choice… not to go. He would have supported it.

Katherine Watson:
But you don’t have to choose.

Joan Brandwyn:
No, I have to. I want a home; I want a family, that’s not something I’ll sacrifice.

Katherine Watson:
No-one’s asking you to sacrifice that, Joan, I just want you to understand you can do both.

Joan Brandwyn:
Do you think I’ll wake up one morning and regret not being a lawyer?

Katherine Watson:
Yes, I’m afraid that you will.

Joan Brandwyn:
Not as much as I regret not having a family, not being there to raise
them. I know exactly what I’m doing and it doesn’t make me any less
smart.
[Katherine looks down]

Joan Brandwyn:
This must seem terrible to you.

Katherine Watson:
I didn’t say that.

Joan Brandwyn:
Sure you did. You always do. You stand in class and tell us to look
beyond the image, but you don’t. To you a housewife is someone who sold
her soul for a center hall colonial. She has no depth, no intellect, no
interests. You’re the one who said I could do anything I wanted. This
is what I want.

Katherine Watson:
[hugs Joan] Congratulations. Be happy.



Charlie Stewart
:
My parents say my future is right on the horizon.

Connie Baker:
Tell them the horizon is an imaginary line that recedes as you approach it.



[first lines]

Betty Warren:
[voiceover]
All her life, she had wanted to teach at Wellesley College. So, when a
position opened in the Art History department, she pursued it
single-mindedly until she was hired. It was whispered that Katherine
Watson, a first-year teacher from Oakland State, made up in brains what
she lacked in pedigree. Which was why this bohemian from California was
on her way to the most conservative college in the nation.

While there are some good things that never last… there are even those that never start. It’s sad, but then again, I guess that’s part of the deal when I decided to leave my mom’s womb. I can’t call such condition as pathetic, knowing that there’s someone else who’s feeling the very same frustration that I’m feeling right now. Hahaha… am i making sense at all? I’m kinda confused if being frustrated can be equated to being pathetic. Perhaps… more or less, more… tsk tsk tsk… This is one of those things I hate about myself… la pa ganing ko nahuman sa akong story-telling, ga-edit nako sa akong utok. Ang labas, dili na nuon gahuman ang story. Hahaha…

Unsa ganing to akong giingon? Nawala ko na. Cge, later na lng pag madumduman na to nako.

pienso que estoy cayendo lentamente en amor con usted no me dejo por
favor ser porque sé, una persona que esté en amor se condene a ser
lastimado yo esté asustada de ser lastimado por eso bueno de dolor,
aunque debo admitir, yo esté más asustada perder su amor que sufro
porque dejo mi corazón caer para usted.

i think i’m slowly falling in love with you. please don’t let me be because i know, a person who is in love is doomed to being hurt. i’m afraid of being hurt by that kind of pain, though i must admit, i’m more afraid to lose your love than get myself suffer because i let my heart fall for you.

The Harry Potter mania

Hehehe… guys, know what?

I was able to see Harry Potter’s premier last Wednesday… ’twas cool (nah, not the airconditioned room… corny na daun… tsk tsk tsk) i mean the movie. I fell in love with Harry all over again. ahhahaha… just kidding but ’twas partly true i guess.

But then again, I noticed lots of parts/portions indicated in the book (The Goblet of Fire) that were not included in the film. Haven’t seen Dobby and Winky, too. Barty Crouch Jr. shouldn’t have appeared with Wormtail in the first scene (with the creepy, scary, ugly, malnourished Voldemort).

Oooppppssss… so much for spoiling your day. hehehe… for those who haven’t seen the movie yet, I’m so so so so so so so sorry. hehehe… alam mo marami pa talaga ala dun sa movie.

PAKIKIPAGSAPALARAN @ ur service

Off i’ll be leaving for CEBU on the 28th of November… gotta find something good in there. While i’m a bit worried (for reason yet so vague), i’m also excited. Yeah, it’s learning how to risk more. Saying lots of MAYBEs sounds like an idiot who doesn’t know anything at all, but then… I can’t say to myself that I’m an idiot… that would be an irreprehensible attack on my ego. hahahaha… la ko kasabot sa akong giyawyaw…

But seriously, I believe I can be happy if i choose to be happy. I may not exactly know what will happen next but, it’s meh!!! It’s my life, and certainly, I’m the one who’s making it run… not the other people… not even my parents… I’m a grown-up (who hasn’t grown even few inches, i’m still 4′11"… hahaha)… though I believe in HIM. All i’m asking from HIM is to guide me always.

Kaya ko to mga pare ko… ika nga NEVER GIVE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT!!!

Aja! Aja! Fighting! Fighting! (from the movie My Lovely Samsoon)

A friend told me:

I met a beautiful soul on the net… a very smart guy. But describing him as such would not justify his being him. he’s more than just someone who’s smart… he’s also kind, and a gentleman.

Prechell, your IQ score is 115. (Not so much of a genius…)

      

            
   

Your Intellectual Type is Precision Processor. This
means you’re exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to
problems, especially ones that involve math or logic. You’re also
resourceful and able to think on your feet. And that’s just some of
what we know about you from your test results.

Prechell, your career personality type is ISFJ

That means that based on the standard measure of personality traits,
you are a strong team player and believe the needs of the group come
before the individual. You generally care about the people around you,
and this allows you to provide a personal touch at your workplace. That
sense of caring allows you to feel personal accomplishment and
acceptance from your co-workers who know they can turn to you for help.
You are generous with your time and spirit and look to make the current
situation better for everyone.

Your emotional strength combined with a pragmatic approach to work
makes you a strong asset. You don’t like juggling multiple projects and
would rather get one project off your desk at a time. Because of your
internal value system, you don’t need false flattery from others. You
have a strong work ethic and inspire others by your example. Because of
this, you are a strong leader on any team. To you, your work speaks for
itself.

From the movie FORCES OF NATURE

Ben Holmes: Bridge, ya know, I mean, what I always thought was that there was this
one, one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know, and when
you found that person, uh, the rest of the world just kinda magically
faded away and… and you know, the two of you would just be inside
this kind of protective bubble. But there is no bubble, or if there is,
we have to make it. I just think life is more than a series of moments,
you know, it’s… it’s… we can make choices and we can choose to
protect the people we love and that’s what makes us who we are, and
those are the real miracles! Stop me when it becomes glaringly obvious
that I have no idea what I am talking about…

                                                                    - - - - -

Bridget: Ben, in about five minutes we’re supposed to be joined through eternity and I was wondering if you’re about to get dressed…

Ben: Well, if it’s eternity… it can wait (laugh)…

                                                                                          - - - - -

Ben: I fell in love the moment i saw you… when I saw you there up in the balcony… I fell in love with you all over again. None of the plane crashes, the hurricanes and the other people will ever change that because when I’m on that (ehem! limot ko) I’m gonna know that I’m here with the only woman I really love.

Bridget: I think I’ve just heard your vows…

Ben: I love you…
