Movies! :)
The other day, my cousin went to my place to pick up something my mom would want to give her. And then she was like, let's watch Warm Bodies! It's already up. And I really intended to watch Warm Bodies before and I thank the Internet for letting us watch it for free. I know it's illegal and all so you don't have to remind me. I don't claim to be a 100% law abiding citizen anyway. But whatevs. Haha


I actually didn't enjoy the film that much. It's kind of confusing to me most of the time. Or probably because I haven't read the novel yet and all that but for some reason, even though the film is simple as it is, it's still kind of absurd. Very fast phase, and all that! But still not bad for a free movie. You would probably be more understanding when you paid for it. Good thing though that I liked the boyfriend of the main actress. So good looking. But that's another story. It's not like I'm totally disconnected to the film though. I legitimately felt happy when he realized he dreamt. You would know what I mean when you watch the movie. I would try to read the novel as soon as I got time.

To be honest, I enjoyed Twilight more than I liked this movie. 


And then we watched Tangled. I actually haven't seen the movie like, ever. Call me a looser but that's a true story. Unlike Warm Bodies, the film was amazing! I liked it. <3 I wonder if I would the same if I were in her situation. I don't think I would just leave my mom like that. I mean, hypothetically of course. But I like when they showed that Rapuzel kind of felt guilty for what she did and all that. Good enough.  


Like we haven't had enough yet, we watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. That too! Loser, I know. But it was awesome! Aswesum! I love the values incorporated in it. Such a family movie. And Johnny Depp was such a sweetheart! :)    Not literally though. Because he actually didn't do anything about the troubled kids. Oh speaking of troubles, for some reason, although funny, I find that people from whatever land Oompa-loompas way too annoying when they sing. Why-oh-why.

Anyways that was my day the other day and I hope that would happen again very very soon! Stress relieving that was.

Accidental gig.

Accidental gig.
So my sister actually texted me to say that there are bands playing in the elementary school in front of our house. And I was like, what bands? And she didn't answer because she didn't know. So as a fan of most of the OPM bands, I got out to check. Which shock my mom a little bit because I don't usually go out and stuff. So I got there with my youngest sister first and checked and stuff and then it was fine, music playing and all that. It was actually an event put together by our councillor in partnership with a local radio station. So that happened. And when I looked at the banner to check who's playing next, I saw SPONGE COLA among many others (that weren't there by the way). And I was like, WTF? I love SPONGE COLA. Like, to death! I'll tell you why next time if I remember. 

So I texted my cousin and my sister to inform them that Sponge Cola's gonna be there and stuff. And then my youngest sister and I decided that we should pick up my other sister at home so that we would all be there and watch together. I called my cousin and asked if she received my messages and she confirmed but texted me back a few minutes later that she's doing something so she wouldn't be able to come. So we went back to the school anyways. 


Join The Club was there. Awesome. 


This day is really unexpected. I love this day. 


And as always, hyper Yael is hyper. I remember last UST Paskuhan how Yael climbed that steel thingy where the camera stood and it was actually darn high. So dangerous. So Yael. Can't really do anything about it. So yeah. I can't wait to see them again. I'm not actually a fan of politicians displaying their names and their projects but this one, I approve of. Except the shameless self-promotion of the politicians and radio staffs often times during the show. Good vibes!

After our surveys and all that, we found out that Tuberculosis is the primary concern in the community that we're in. With that being said, we focused on the problem. 


We conducted a seminar, had games, had fun, gave free food, and all that stuff. I guess it's really very helpful for the community since according to the survey we conducted last time, most of them are not able to finish school so it's not everyday that someone like our speaker would come to their community and inform them about their number 1 concern when it comes to health.


Us hearing our leader's explanation. Me playing the role of kunwaring nakikinig. Chika lang. Haha


We invited an alumni as a speaker of the said event. We, students, actually listened more to the lecture than the stake holders. Quite an awesome lecture.


F na F! The guys should actually have their dance number but since they're too shy to dance, these little kiddos did the thing for them.


And then us, the food committee did our thing. We distributed packed lunch to the people who attended our seminar and all that thing that happened. I don't know if my group mates feel the same way or whatever but I really feel thankful for this experience. Thankful that I get to talk to people who I probably wouldn't have a chance to talk with if not for this activity.  I'm not a people person. I might consider being a PATHOLOGIST. 


Anyways, thank you UST for having a program like this. I mean, even though it can really be so tiring, at the end of the day, you can always give it a rest. But you can't take away the experience. Thank you Mr. Tiu and Mr. Raymundo for the pictures! :) I owe these pictures to you guys.
