Down to that sweet memory lane =)

Waaaa! I'm crazy over this new Powerpuff Girls Z! As we knew them, they're made of sugar, spice, everything nice, and Chemical X. However, the story was revised with Powerpuff Girls Z, a new from Japan. The story started during a sudden climate change at Tokyo City and around the world. So in order to stop this, Kitazawa used Chemical Z, a new form of Professor Utonium's original substance Chemical X, to destroy a giant glacier. However, the impact of Chemical Z caused several black and white lights to appear in the Tokyo sky. Three ordinary girls, Momoko (Blossom of PPG), Miyako (Bubbles), and Kaoru (Buttercup), were engulfed in white lights and soon became the new defenders of Tokyo City: the Powerpuff Girls Z. However, the numerous black lights caused others to turn to the side of evil. And so, using their ultra super powers, Hyper Blossom, Rolling Bubbles, and Powered Buttercup dedicated their lives to defending Tokyo City from the likes of those swayed by the black lights and Him's black powder.

10:35am. I just woke up with the sound of a two 5-peso coins thrown on my bed. Gotta wake up. Mom's leaving and nobody's left to cook. I'm so not used to it, ME? Cooking? HELL NO! I wasn't even born with the talent of cookery (though kissing never lasts but cookery does, as quoted from a site i've seen). But sheesh, no choice. Nobody's capable of doing it but me. I'm alone with my grandfather and my little brother. In short, I've got to do it.

But Mom? What am I gonna do with a thirty peso? "Buy sardines or maybe corned beef. Besides, there's only the three of you left to eat."

Good heavens. It felt like an obligation. I can't afford to sleep all day knowing that my Lolo and my brother would starve. I've got to do this, for real.

So when she left, I got up and fixed myself. I went out of the house and found that Tita Nene's tiangge was closed. Guess what? I've gotta walk like lots of steps to reach the other tiangge.

I arrived at the store and bought a corned beef. How much? P32. I'm short with P2. Gotta buy the smaller one. How much? P16. Okay, good. I can keep P14. Since the lady who's given me what I bought knew me (but poor me, I forgot her name), I took the chance and asked her how to do the pinaisan nga bangrus (paksiw na bangus). So there, she instructed me that I needed garlic, ginger, onion, vinegar, salt, and of course, the fish.

As I was doing the stuff, I enjoyed loving the moment. I'm alone at the kitchen, nobody's there to say "Whaaat? You? Cooking? What a miracle!", which annoys me A LOT. Maybe they're just trynna motivate me or something, but I often get upset and eventually stop doing the job.

Snap back. As I told you, I loved the feeling of being alone and doing something you're a newbie at. It felt even better when I let my lolo taste it and when I was like showered with compliments. Exaggerated maybe because for you, it was just a pinaksiw. But for me, I felt appreciated. Few words from my Lolo meant a lot for me.

Gotta do a little searching for a drooling recipe which I'll make "Mitch's Best". Wish me luck.ü

Pinaisan with love :)

I just have to open the computer and blog this out. I was crying too hard and tell you what, my nose is still wet! I was so touched with HBO's original movie entitled "Meet Joe Black". It's been out of the movie industry for ages but I didn't have the time to watch it. It really caught my emotions and it felt like, sometimes, you just realize that you need nothing else in this world, that everything that's worth living is already with you. I've been really SOBBING too hard especially during the father-daughter parts. :'(

Anyway, Here's a bit of everything. Might as well be interested. =)

The cycle of life on Earth hangs in the balance when Death becomes emotionally involved in this romantic fantasy. William Parrish (Anthony Hopkins) is a tremendously wealthy and powerful man who oversees a worldwide multi-media empire. Despite the loss of his wife, whom he dearly loved, William is content with his life, and he's very close to his two daughters, Allison (Marcia Gay Harden) and Susan (Claire Forlaini). One night, as William is fighting a hostile takeover of his company and Allison is planning an elaborate party to celebrate her dad's 65th birthday, William begins displaying the symptoms of a severe heart attack, and he is visited by a mysterious stranger, Joe Black (Brad Pitt). Joe is actually the angel of death, who has taken the form of a man who recently passed on to pay William a call. It seems that William is due to move on to the next world, but (no great surprise) he doesn't want to go. Joe, on the other hand, is curious to know what life is like for mere mortals, so the two men strike a deal -- William will have some time to get his affairs in order, and Joe will wait and see what it's like to be a human being. Joe decides that he likes it very much when he falls in love with Susan, but negotiating the slippery slopes of romance is no easier for Joe than for any ordinary man.

I can't get enough of crying. Every now and then I reminisce the brilliant words Hopkins says and I'm certainly struck with every ounce of it. Bottomline is, YOU GOTTA WATCH IT. =)

Most Memorable lines:

William Parrish: It's hard to let go, isn't it?
Joe Black: Yes it is, Bill.
William Parrish: And that's life... what can I tell you.

William Parrish: I thought I was going to sneak away tonight. What a glorious night. Every face I see is a memory. It may not be a perfectly perfect memory. Sometimes we had our ups and downs. But we're all together, and you're mine for a night. And I'm going to break precedent and tell you my one candle wish: that you would have a life as lucky as mine, where you can wake up one morning and say, "I don't want anything more." Sixty-five years. Don't they go by in a blink?

William Parrish: Do you know about money?
Joe Black: It can't buy happiness?

William Parrish: Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.

Susan Parrish: I love you, Daddy --
William Parrish: That's why it's okay. No regrets?
Susan Parrish: No regrets.
William Parrish: It's a good feeling, isn't it?
Susan Parrish: Everybody's saying goodbye...

They regard each other, a long pause, they have reached an understanding.

William Parrish: I'm still here.

I'm crazy. Been using this so-called Gmail for like ages but I haven't noticed how cool it was. :P

Funny much since I was doing some stuff when i heard of this "tong" sound (lol) and was wondering where it's coming from. So yeah, I kept on searching on my active tabs when I noticed that one tab was some kind of blinking. =)) Then yun, I saw krissy's instant message and she was asking if matagal na daw akong naG'GTALK. LOL.

The only thing I fell inlove with Gtalk instantly is because I could get rid of those pissing-me-off-big-time GROUP MESSAGES and I could only talk to people whom I wanted to talk to. :P

Can't get what we're talking about? Nyahahaha, dig it! LOL.

8:48 PM

30 minutes had been a cliche when it comes to my little brothers. Since I've discovered this Timer feature on my phone, I started to "time" them everytime they're playing the computer. Usually, they would ask my permission (well, even approved by our parents, they still cannot play without Manang Che's permit) and say "Manang Che (manang means 'Ate' and Che means my nickname at home LOL), can we play for thirty minutes?" And I would gladly hand them my phone with the timer on.

What's the sense you ask? Boohoo, im kaduper bored noh. :)) Nothing much. HAHAHAHAHA.
