Mockingjay Part 2 Movie Review

Image
As a huge huge fan of the trilogy, I was really really excited for this movie. You know I ranted about how last year, Mockingjay Part 1 was shown 8 months after its original release and how I was able to download it in HD 5 months before they even release it here but this time, no. Japan is catching up! Release date is surprisingly the same as everywhere else. Take that, world! ;) Apparently we'll burn with ya. If you know what I mean.  Anyways. Epic. I know I predicted this last movie as my fave but definitely not my favorite among the bunch but you know, it's not that bad either. I guess it's just not as action-packed as the book. I actually expected a lot more from it. But maybe that's just me. It's always just me anyways. I also expected they give more justice to Prim's death because you know, in the book, that really broke my heart. Because you know, I have little duckling sisters too. And in the movie, meh. Didn't have an impact. But don't get me w...

My New Bike

Image
I actually thought of buying a new bike ever since my lock got broken. But I was like, I can live with a broken lock. And then less than a month ago, I got a flat tire. I have two options by then. First, I get myself a new tire and still live with a broken lock. Second, I buy myself a new bike and I don't get to deal with a broken lock anymore. Who wouldn't choose the later, right? A new tire would cost probably like 1/3 the price of my previous bike anyways so yeah. No regrets!  Bry and I went to this place called Daiwa Cycle nearby and the plan was to actually go to Mega Don Quijote to buy this stuff because we both haven't been there yet but then Bry saw the cycle shop and so we stopped and basically bought the bike because you know, I'm not really picky with my bike. I was just like, this time I should have something that I like the color of. And they did have a wide variety of colors! I'm impressed. And it's relatively cheap!  This bike is classified red by...

Exploring Tokyo with Kim

Image
I was like 30 minutes late our call time because I messed up. I literally carefully calculated the time needed for me to get to my destination on time but this is what happened. When I transfered train station, I fell asleep sort of and I knew my station would just be like 3 stops away but yeah when I came to my senses, I was like, OMG NO! Then I hurried to get down from the station, located the exit, and yeah I was wrong. Because my station is actually supposed to be the next station from where I went down. Then I have to wait for like, kinda long right? And so it goes. I kinda feel sorry for them. They waited for a long time under the sun.  Our first stop is Rikugi-en. It's kind of odd that my friend wanted to see gardens and parks here in Japan. Contrary to what I think most people want to see here like lights, night life, Disney, and everything. Her reason being is that there's no such thing in the Philippines. I agree! But Disney though. Although they went to Universal in ...

Tokyo Disney Sea 2015

Image
First time at Disney Sea! I haven't been to Universal either but I'm assuming that the Earth something something looks quite similar to this. Or at least we thought. Haha For some reason, when I go to parks and stuff, it's always Halloween. I wonder.  Disney Sea gives me a European village vibe for some reason. Haven't been to Europe either so I don't know why I'm saying that. Haha Went with Bry to celebrate his Birthday. :) When I was a child, I always wondered what Disney Sea is like but I was always too small for Disney Sea so that gave me the notion that Disney Sea is for adults. Also, when I was kind of a grown-up, my little sisters were too little for it anyways so we didn't really have a chance to go together.  For most part, it is. But that doesn't mean that children wouldn't enjoy their visit or something. There are still rides and places where we felt like we're too old to go into. But that's like only 1 ride so whatever haha.  A li...

November, let me FALL.

It's all happening too fast! Already November OMG. One month before I go home to the Philippines. I'm not exactly uber hyped about it yet but I'm really looking forward to it. I think I need a break more than I want it. Anyways, while we're still at it, I should enjoy my remaining days here still. Take loads of pictures of fall stuff and all that. Maybe go to fun places, IDK. I'm coming home soon but I definitely have lots of things to do here still. BTW weather here is messed up a little. Barely had summer and now that it's supposed to be fall, it's kind of wintery already. I hope I wouldn't miss this too for if I haven't told you enough already, it is my favorite time of the year.   Ciao! :)
