the tourist
With my bestfriends, we went to rockwell to catch a movie. we saw The Tourist. we did not let it pass since 2 of the most powerful and beautiful players in hollywood are in this. here's what i think about The Tourist: I kind of liked the Russian mob angle which was highlighted just enough and stops the repetitive torture of seeing Angelina constantly give a stripper-stare to Johnny Depp and all the supporting players. Speaking of the enigma character actor, seeing Depp play a normal role took some adjusting to. Once he is allowed to break out of the restraints of being boring, Depp slowly becomes the main attraction. Overall, The Tourist is a conservative piece that tries to be playful. It was obviously made to be an instant classic. Yet contemporary. One will find moments that are just uneventful. Similar to being on a guided tour. A few stops along the way are worthless but occasionally something interesting keeps your mind involved. Sticking with the guided tour comparison, this movie is more a tour of the plain Australian outback as opposed to the eye-catching ruins of the Romans. Then, we enjoyed the vintage pop of Filling Station in Makati. Vodka+Margarita+Rootbeers. Yeah, just like a tourist.

looking for the joke with a microscope
after dealing with all these graphic artists for the entire freakin week, me and my colleagues went to Mr. Kurosawa to re-focus. we enjoyed French-Japanese items like tempura or gyoza souflaits, steaks and fine wines; Greek-Japanese items like Japanese kebabs and salads; Spanish-Japanese items like the japaella; and Italian-Japanese items such as pastas and pizza. And this is complemented with traditional Japanese favourites such as kobe, teriyaki, tempura, donburi, sushi and sashimi. If my taste buds served me right, the mango and cheese combo in IWO JIMA pizza was also mixed with cubes of chicken teriyaki and sesame seeds. It’s so flavorful enough for you to forget worries of daily living. it will be a long road for the first quarter. but i guess, we're up for it. it's 2011! i want a worry-free zone unless you will not ask for it. i used to believe authenticity could be achieved solely by describing, in our own words, one's fragment of experience.if our greatest fear is to sink away alone and unremembered, the brutality that time will inflict upon each of us will always run stronger than any river's waves. now, you were saying? again?! what?! can you repeat that for me please?! ugh...you make me horny, call me.
