It can be happy or sad. It can be better or worse. It's either-or but it will never be neither-nor. :)

Sunny


I just watched a Korean movie entitled Sunny. It is about a group of high school students who were bonded by friendship. They go to school together, they sing till they tired each other, they fight with other group of girls; they laugh, cry and smile. Their group is composed of seven girls with different personalities. There’s a leader who always cares for them. There’s a future beauty queen who make sure she have the latest style since her mom owns a beauty salon.  One of the girls is a magazine model who has the prettiest face among them. Another one who loves to recite bad words. There’s also a member who always take care of her eyes since she have double eyelids. They also have a girl who loves to fight using sticks but also want to be a writer. And lastly, they have the newest girl that enters the group and also the protagonist of the story, who came from the country side. They call themselves Sunny.

They spent a lot of times together. Just like other normal groups. They also have some misunderstanding however they were never apart. Yet, it will never be an interesting story if there are no hardships that will topple them.  Cliché as it may seem but for every good story, there’s a tragedy. When they celebrate their school festival, unfortunately the newest member got into trouble and the leader rescued her. The other girls were also there. The girl who has the prettiest face suddenly appeared on the back of the antagonist and was accidentally [purposely] slashed by piece of glass on her face.

Everyone was devastated. All of them shed tears.

After 25 years, destiny led them to each other. The country girl who is currently happy with her own family met the leader that is in the hospital fighting with cancer.  She tried to search for their friends together with the girl who loves her eyelids that is now working for an insurance company. They also found the girl who loves to swear and now a housewife that talk like a fine lady. They continue the search. They meet again the girl who wants to be a writer. Unfortunately, she is jobless and is taking care of her husband’s family. They also found the beauty queen who unluckily lost their fortune and is working now on a bar.

The leader who doesn’t have much time to live, still wants to see the girl that was most affected [victim] of the incident happened during their school festival. They searched until the leader lost her life. They went to the second day of the funeral. Only the five of them.  They still try to wait for the seventh girl. Then suddenly the personal lawyer of the leader came. It was revealed that the leader has a will. She was rich. She assigned a new leader, she gave job to the jobless, and she provided home for the homeless and made sure all of them will be taken care of. From there and then, I know she is still a leader till the end who takes care of her friends. At the end of the story, while everybody is dancing the moves they’ve choreographed during high school, the last girl came. The girl who should have a scar on her left face is standing beautifully before them. XOXO.

It might be a very nice story which became unexciting since I’m the one narrating it, but I swear I cried a river while and after watching it. I miss all my high school friends.  :)

Hey! Say!

Every time I open my pc, I'm always thinking of updating my blog. However, I can't think of anything to write. Even though there are lot of things going on worth talking about. So, I tried to think of the reason why. Well, recently I'm visiting a lot of blogs from different parts of the world. Not really to follow the blogger but to check on the posts that they have about something that I'm into right now. Wanna know? Wanna know? It's about an all boy group from Japan. Hey! Say! Jump. Some of them are still on their teens currently, some are on their twenties.

Every time I type their name on google, lots of blog is showing up. And when I visit each one of them, I can really see the dedication of the blogger to update his/her account not only for the benefits of his/her follower but also for the satisfaction he/she is getting. Up to date posts. Personalization. Nothing can be compared of.

After  making a stopover on their blog, I feel  really insecure. Hoho. Not only because my blog is not updated but also I can see on their creation that they have a goal. That is to express their love for their Idol  and promise to their follower through the posts, shares that they are uploading . And from there and then, I realize how bad I was. Although from my last post, I promised to make some changes on it and I know in my heart that I want somebody to follow it.

Originally, I created this blog to express the feelings that I can’t really tell to anybody. I’m not hoping for some followers. I just want to show the other side of me. I’m not good in writing.  I have the passion but I don’t have the talent.  That’s why if somebody will read this, I may want to just be eaten out by the chair where I’m sitting right now.

Actually, telling stories verbally is worse. I’m not good at words. I’m easily destructed. Woah!

Anyways, there’s still a room for improvement. If there are thousands of rooms, I’ll try my best to visit all of them. Haha. Ganbaremasu!

Ang Impluwensya ng Asian Dramas


Koreanovela. Usung-uso ‘yan ngayon. High school yata ako noong nagsimulang kumalat ‘yan sa Pilipinas. Sa pag-kakaalala ko Lovers in Paris ‘yung pinaka-una kong pinanood. Actually hindi ako ‘yung sumubaybay nun kundi ‘yung mama ko. Maaga kasi akong matulog dati. Tapos nagulat na lang ako pinag-uusapan na s’ya sa school namin. S’yempre, para maging in, naki-nood naman ako. Maganda naman ang istorya. Dahil ‘din dun sumikat ‘yung kanta ni Kitchie Nadal na “’Wag na ‘Wag Mong Sasabihin.” At sino ba naming makaka-limot sa naging usong expression na “Aja!”

Marami nang pinalabas na "imported series" dito sa Pilipinas. Hindi lang galing Korea, pati na rin galing Japan at Taiwan. Parang mga surplus lang.. Anyway, dahil sa mga palabas na ‘yun sa channel 2 at 7 pati na rin 5, 9 at 13 dati, maraming na-impluwensyahan. At, isa na ko roon. Noong una, bumibili lang ako ng mga pirated dvd’s pero dahil nauso na ang free download sa internet, halos lahat ng pinanonood ko, galing sa paborito kong site na hindi ko muna ime-mention kasi ‘di pa ko nakakahingi ng permiso. Pero kapag napabisita kayo sa website na’to, astig! Hundreds ang makikita n’yong Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese at kahit Filipino movies and series at marami pang kung anu-anong lahi  sa Asya. May love story, horror, suspense, police drama, comedy, detective, high school drama at kahit na anime.

Marami na ring streaming sites ngayon na pwede mong panooran ng mga ganito. Pero ang napansin ko, kapag gusto mong manood ng magandang drama na love story o musical ang tema, Korean ang nagunguna. Kung gusto mo naman ng police/detective/mystery o high school drama, Japanese ang maganda. Kung light drama naman na may halong comedy at love sory, Taiwanese series ‘yung mas okay.

May kasunod pa ‘to, sigurado.. dahil habang ginagawa ko ang post na ‘to, iba talaga ang nasa isip ko. :)

The First Entry

It's 2012, and this is my first entry for this year. It's kind of sad to say goodbye to 2011 (this is actually a little too late). There are a lot of things happened back then. During the first quarter, I decided to quit my job.  I want to start building my own career. I want to follow my dreams. So, what I did is, I set up a plan. Every day, on my mind, I’m counting the days and crafting my own steps on how the things will be done. I planned and planned.

Days passed. Weeks passed. Months passed. I’m still here. I realize I can’t afford to follow my dreams yet.  I still have responsibilities that this current job can support. So okay, I stayed. Day by day, I’m thinking when this will end. Well, to forget about the first plan that failed, I let myself enjoy my stay. I tried to put my best foot forward. Getting high scores, taking pleasure in having bonuses and somehow improving myself on the process. But now, it’s not like that anymore. Every time my shift starts (at 7am), I’m wishing that time could run faster for me to see Mr. 4:00pm to strike immediately. I’m always looking forward on rest days. And then, realization came in, I’m doing this for the sake that I’m working and I’m not really enjoying it. First quarter plan, failed.

Friendship. One of the best things 2011 gave me. I can’t detail the happenings, the arguments and the sharing me and my friends had but it’s the best.  Broadening my horizon, succeed. :)

Woh! Should I forget one of the spices of life? Here it goes. I thought 2011 was the time that I should regain my consciousness and fall in love again. I mean, for real.  I'm tired of Mutual Understanding, of Constantly Dating and of No Commitments. To think those are my rules for these past two years, haha.  When I thought the opportunity came, I give it my best shot.  Can’t go anywhere without make up (not the flashy one, hoho). Always aware of fashion style: accessories, match; shoes, lovely; and dress, a little finicky. Conscious on my reaction, how I speak, how I comment, and on my way of pleasing people. Hmmn, but I guess it’s should not be the way it is or maybe it’s not enough because it still ends. Love life, failed.

It’s 2012 but it’s not the end of the world.  It’s time to make change. It’s time to improve.  I’ll start with this first entry. No pattern. No requirement. I’ll just let my heart decides on what to write and my mind guides on what to post and hide. Let’s see where 2012 will take me. :)
