Good note: My intuition is getting better.

The Rite -- Not All Right

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 14:12:00 +0000

Director: Mikael Håfström

Writers: Michael Petroni, Matt Baglio

Stars: Colin O'Donoghue, Anthony Hopkins and Ciarán Hinds

It's been since 2009, I think, when I last made a movie review and I remember, I promised myself that whenever I make reviews, the film must really be a good one (so that I would only post positive commentaries and so to avoid being a critic that I am not!).

Anyway, obviously this review is for the movie, The Rite. The movie is not good; but is not that bad neither. Oh yeah, forgive me for the usual blah! I just mentioned 'not good' and just lost my integrity for still making a review on this! Haha! Okay, let's just say, I am now possessed --minus the spinning head and pea-soup and high-angled projectile puke-- by the devil and it is him writing this. LOL!

So, speaking of the devil...Hafstrom perfectly places him (the devil) on the limelight to creep the hell out of all of us. Apparently though, it will always go without saying that this is like what any other exorcism film maker would do. But I challenge you to give this film a chance to attest itself that this isn't another The Exorcist, or a copy cat of The Exorcism of Emily Rose, and you'll be surprised with the team's few attempts to have it more edgy over the other films of its genre.

Let me start with Haftrom's unique idea of preventing the movie from being conveyed as another cliche, by his attempt to put a different attack on Michael Kovak's (O'Donogheu) struggle on faith. The usual arguments, "Is there really a God?", "I can't do this and that because I lack faith (in God).", and whatnot, are replaced with, "How do I (O’Donoghue) take the devil away when I do not believe in him in the first place?", and..*insert any other statements on disbelief on devil's existence. This approach also poses a call for atheists to do a tweak on their premise, that they may yet prove themselves worthy not to be called fools :D Okay, forgive me (father) for I have digressed! Haha!

Another thing that's worth to mention, and I think the best asset of the movie, is its cinematography. Thanks to Ben Davis' admirable talent. Honestly ~~and without exaggeration~~, I have never seen a movie yet that has as much creative camera works and perspective. The camera crawls in every scene with purpose --whether to scare you or to give you (false) expectations that in the next scene you'll be in dread, or screaming. Fast, precise and sharp shift of focus never compromises the scene's sense of art, especially during detail-defining shots. But since those are aided by technology, let alone Davis' creative playful mind shown through uniquely-angled shots from frame to frame, the movie can brag and will never be ashamed of showing off its ass if, or when, commended for its cinematography.

However, the brilliance ends there! As far as the acting is concerned, O’Donoghue is so-so. Emotions are flat and he is, in general, blank. He could have pulled-off a more effective mortician-turned-seminarist guy who eversince from his childhood has resentments to God after her mother died. But nah. Father Lucas (Anthony Hopkins) even outshines O’Donoghue..he is very realistic, and his role as the key character to Kovak's turning point is well justfiied.

And before I forget to mention, the spooky echoing whispers of the demon that is supposed to frighten the audience becomes annoying. I don't know why, but that is what I felt for it. Nevertheless, the rest of the sound effects sure do a good job as far as the film's effectivity in giving goosebumps is concerned.

There. That's how I see The Rite. It's just right, but not all right. Still worth the watch though! I give it 8.5/10 :)

Ride On!

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 23:57:00 +0000

One of my colleagues in the company where I work for has a new pick-up ride! It was given to her by the company and I was like..WOAH! I wish I could have one too...Okay, that was a joke! That was not really my reaction ;)I was just quiet and quietly wishing that I could drive a pick-up too, and yes I am choosy and want this Chevrolet Silverado :D

Okay, enough for a wishful thinking now...and yeah I would digress 'coz someone from Texas just hit my blog and since I value my readers, here's to you: you prolly have a ride and still didn't know of Dallas auto repair...(okay now you know! :))) and you might someday need to fix your brake and yes, they do brake job there!

So there, click away buddy!

New Website. Own Domain. Finally!

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 12:58:00 +0000

I remember, I have been wanting to have my own domain ever since I learned that I can earn more moolah than my blogspot-tailed url can promise! (Whaaaat? LOL!) but I changed my mind and decided to put up a different site instead. Yeah, I let go of giving this blogspot his own identity -- but relax and wait my blogspot, we'll come to that point! :D

-----

My new webspace is where I post all the photos I have taken with my pentax k-x, my new buddy! Yes, it is a photoblog and it is the first item I am slashing off in my to-accomplish list this 2011! Woot! I do not do own hosting though. Perhaps in few months' time, and I will yet consider this webhosting site. For now, I will just read their webhosting reviews, and i'll see which plan's the best.

I'll make a separate post for the link of my new site! :)

Repost: On Vacation

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 06:48:00 +0000

I was browsing my archives and found this post. I was just a student then who always craves for a break and wishes that college would be over -- and yeah it did happen! But sadly, I learned that because college is over does not mean I got plenty of breaks and vacations! In other words, be careful with what you wish for blah blah blah! :)))

------

Yeah. It's official. But, ugh, I can't seem to organize some plans for this much awaited break! Hmm, I'm thinking though -- if I can just let things happen spontaneously. No plans. No schedules. No schemes at all. Hmm, that, I hope, would be more exciting. Nah. I'm sure that that is a better idea. Yeah. Because, whatever happened to the time tables and working plans I made that I promise myself would have followed in the entire semester? Yeah right, it worked. And yeah, I don't mean that!

Well, now I'm dreaming. Ever heard of SeaSide? Uhm, that's just a place to pamper yourself. All right, that is being sketchy of me. So, uhm, that place is actually a first-class resort where the 4-star Myrtle Beach Hotel is located and where the white sandy beach is just footsteps away. Argh. I'm drooling to experience the luxurious Myrtle Beach vacation deals even for this short break that I have. Oh, that is a total drivel! But for the people who can go there for real, well, I tell you...staying at the SeaSide would be boring without their world-class amenities. Would you not enjoy their helicopter tour package? Or their so called enchanted sailing charters? Or the first-class spa service? or whatnot? Here, http://www.grandeshores.com, click away!!!

Night

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 08 Jan 2011 02:20:00 +0000

We were in the crowd.

I had my own talk, you had yours.

I people-watched. I talked. I looked around.

Then I saw you. Alone. I stared at you for seconds.

But as much as I want to just have my eyes glued on you,

I was avoiding eye-contact. Because if that happened, I would have shrinked in shame. So, I diverted.

(Simplicity was defined at first look.

And yet ironically as I gazed, second by second, you were defying it. I swear, you were dazzling that night.

Your light-blue shirt matched your night-tamed white skin.

Oh and your a-bit frizzy shoulder-length hair complemented your blue denim skirt.)

I continued taking glances though.

Still observing -- careful not to be noticed by you --

I saw you moved one table closer.

A little hope tapped me.

But the anticipation was intimidating.

So, I stopped hoping (spelled as imagining) and realized,

there was no clue of you getting any closer.

Before the night had completely gone off,

I thought I have had my chance.

I noticed you by the flight. Leaving.

Stepping down at a very slow pace.

Every landing of your foot on the stair was a pounding inside my chest.

And then...and then that was just it. You left. I failed.

Fond of Teaching!

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 12:33:00 +0000

When I opened my facebook a while ago, I saw a friend of mine posted on his wall that he misses college! We had graduated just last year and oh yeah, he already wants to go back to everyday of sleepless nights, every week of exams, and to feel again the agony of awaiting the results! Who would want that, raise your hand!!

*I'm raising my hand!!* Hahaha!

Yeah, without being sarcastic, I miss college too! All of the things I listed above were just a fraction of the whole college life! It's just too many to mention the rest parts that make up the majority -- the fun part! So people, help me overcome this fond-ness... who wants Chemistry Help? Physics Help? Or just any Homework Help? I might be of help! :)

Sports betting, anyone?

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 01:36:00 +0000

I have never done this before and never will I in the future! But I have known some who make their living thru sports betting. And they even get rich because of it.

Tempting, isn't it? Haha. So for those of you who like this kind of stuff, check this sports betting site! You can choose from basketball to baseball to soccer and even to sports for handicappers!

All right, I wish you luck! :)

I miss my sister...

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 01:09:00 +0000

It's our first time to celebrate new year without my sister. She is now 6-7 hours away from us and we are missing her...

Happy moments with her flash back everytime I see someone wearing hospital nurse uniform . We can still get in touch with her though. Thanks to the one who invented the internet!

----

Off topic, I am an engineering graduate but I think wearing medical uniforms is cool! And these are dickies medical uniforms, cool indeed huh! LOL.

Happy this new year!

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 00:52:00 +0000

I am very excited on what God has in store for me this 2011! For sure that's gonna be great! Who could go wrong with God's plans anyway?

And since it's new year, I have to be renewed as well! Haha. You know, trying new things, going out of my comfort zone, and all that old stuff that one is resolving during this first day of the year!

So, speaking of new things, I've decided, I will have my own domain now and will do own hosting for it! Cheers!

I have checked this webhosting site and they summarized some of the best deals on webhosting in the wide web! Click away folks and let's all have a happy new year! :D

Ang tagal na...

Hindi ko alam kung ano'ng pumasok sa utak ko bakit ako ngayon nagsusulat. Naalala ko, nagagawa ko lang magblog kapag may bago akong pagkakakitaan, o kapag nanalo ako sa isang contest, o minsan kapag masaya, pero madalas...kapag nalulungkot ako. Tulad ngayon...

(Ewan ko. Hindi ko alam kung matatapos ko 'to. Kapag nabasa mo 'to, nagawa kong i-publish, at congrats sa'ting dalawa! Ikaw na lang ata ang reader ko eh. See, iniwan na ako ng mga mambabasa ko, bukod kasi sa walang kwenta mga posts ko, trying hard pa ako magsulat.)

Ang dami dami dami dami nang nangyari sa'kin na dapat ginawan ko ng blog pero hindi ko nagawa....loser talaga! At 'eto ako ngayon, pinipilit ulit ang sarili na makapag-sulat. Ang totoo, hindi ko alam kung anong isusulat ko. Blanko talaga utak ko ngayon. Kaya medyo sabog itong post na ito. Hmm, sige hindi pala medyo, sabog talaga! Ayoko naman ikwento lahat ng nangyari sa'kin. Ang dami eh. Hindi ko na rin alam kung saan ako magsisimula. At isa pa, parang nawala na sila lahat sa isip ko.

Ayun, nalulungkot kasi ako eh. Lately kasi may mga pangyayari sa buhay ko na long term ang impact at hindi ko alam kung na-handle ko ba ito nang mabuti. Naging sunud-sunod iyong mga major decision making sa buhay ko. Ang hirap pala mamili, ano? Hindi dahil importante pareho iyong choices ko, kundi dahil hindi ako sanay pumili. Ngayon, may tanong sa isip ko kung tama ang mga desisyong ginawa ko. Minsan nagpapanggap lang ako na alam ko, pero ang totoo hindi talaga.

Paano at kelan ba talaga malalaman kung tama ang desisyon na ginawa mo?

On Travelling

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 05:09:00 +0000

Good Morning People!

Just got home from a vacation. It was kind of spontaneous trip this holy week because we haven't booked or reserved accommodations to any beach resorts. The trip was either in San Juan or Calatagan, Batangas. But since it was unplanned, fate brought us to Nasugbu. Haha!

So there, after 7 hours of travelling and searching of a beach resort that has a good accommodation and beautiful sceneries, we ended up at Kawayan Cove. But no regrets because the place was a hidden paradise in Batangas. Here (photo from flickr.com):

But I tell you, 7 hours of travel is no joke, especially when you don't know where you're heading to and worse when you travel on a rough road. And yes, we experienced that! But luck was still on our side because we haven't experienced being stranded in the middle of nowhere, where car repair shops are nowhere to be found. Imagine if we were to replace the head gasket of the our ride? Hmmm, maybe it would have taken us more than 12 hours for the travel alone. I hope we also have this Los Angeles Auto Repair in our country, which we can access online! The site also offers specific auto repair service such as for Ford Explorer, Audi A6, etc. But as for a longterm solution, those rough roads must be reconstructed to smooth, hassle-free roads. Hello, 2010 Batangas Offices' Election Candidates!

Repost: On Relieving Stress

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 04:56:00 +0000

I've been finding ways to relieve my stress brought about by my weekly deliverable on my major major subject. Yeah, you've read it right, major major! I have four major subjects this semester and this major major subject I am talking about is the most stressful one -- plant design that includes mass balance, energy balance, leaching, ball milling, mixing, crystallization, melting, etc, etc. Oh, yeah! It really is a nerve-cracking subject. If only I can fast-forward time and make this all over....sigh.

So, what do I do?I need a break. Some suggestions I got are...watch movie, time zone, videoke, trekking, or just sleep all day. I think the latter was the most appropriate for now since I haven't got enough sleep since last last last week, no exaggeration! Instead of doing that, however, I choose to spend my time in front of my laptop which includes doing some research yet again for this major major subject and of course, blogging!

Well, I just have to blog this one for my readers on the other side of the earth. If you're seeking an online site wherein you can buy Michael Buble Tickets, you're lucky for landing on my blogsite! :) Not only that, at that site, you can also buy Augusta National Golf Course Tickets for its many events (which can also be seen there). And there's more folks! They also extend their service to selling Air Canada Centre Tickets of different concerts, theater acts, and sports events there. So there! relieve your stress and enjoy!

Daydream delusion,

Limousine eyelash
Oh Baby! With your pretty face
Drop a tear in my wineglass
Look at those big eyes
See what you mean to me
Sweet-cakes and milkshakes
I'm delusion angel
I'm fantasy parade
I want you to know what I think
Don't want you to guess anymore
You have no idea where I came from
We have no idea where we're going
Lodged in life
Like branches in a river
Flowing downstream
Caught in the current
I'll carry you
You'll carry me
That's how it could be
Don't you know me?
Don't you know me by now?

Job 38

1Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

2Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?

3Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

4Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding

5Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it

6Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

7When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb

9When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,

10And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

11And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed

12Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;

13That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it

14It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.

15And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.

16Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth

17Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?

18Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

19Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof

20That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

21Knowest thou it, because thou wast then born? or because the number of thy days is great

22Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail

23Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

24By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth?

25Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;

26To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man

27To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?

28Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew?

29Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it

30The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.

31Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

32Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons

33Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth

34Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?

35Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go and say unto thee, Here we are?

36Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart

37Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,

38When the dust groweth into hardness, and the clods cleave fast together?

39Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lion? or fill the appetite of the young lions,

40When they couch in their dens, and abide in the covert to lie in wait?

41Who provideth for the raven his food? when his young ones cry unto God, they wander for lack of meat.

I Can Only Write...

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 13:58:00 +0000

Again.

This weird feeling has been bugging me out. And everytime this happens, I want to write. I miss blogging. I mean, I am not doing my task due tomorrow just to write something on how I feel right now. Okay that's a joke. I'll do this quick, anyway. Enough of the past now. This is about last night. When I had realized, yes -- finally, it's over. It's been really fast and that's not me. I am the type who does not know how to get over with something that disappoints me, or saddens me, or, all right, something that breaks me, or my heart perhaps. I am now experiencing a fast shift of feeling. Is it too late if I let you know about this? We only got 2 months or so. And I want to spend that little time with you, as much as I could possibly do. But, you know me as a joke. And that deplores me more than any forms of world's frustrations. Am I really funny? Do I look like a clown to you? I wish I could change the way you've been treating me. Perhaps I am not yet ready to do that, or it might be a fear of seeing myself being turned down. Either way is a lame reason.

You see, I cannot even organize my thoughts. That's why I am posting this here. You are not reading this blog, are you? But, by any chance, just in case you feel that someone is writing a blogpost for you, and you are able to sense whenever someone is thinking of you, I hope this gives you a hint of what I really feel for you. I'm SERIOUS, and NOT JOKING this time. So, I wish you give me a chance.

Would you?

Repost: TV Escapades!

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 14:39:00 +0000

My major subjects have been stressing me lately, so I had been squeezing between the last of my free schedules some quality "me and my TV" time. It just happens that sometimes, limited as the channels available here are, I end up watching really awful TV programs. Ugh!

There are various cable providers available here in my country, but sometimes there are just not enough channels. How I wish that Direct TV would have their service extended here in our country and I'm sure that their promo would be a hit. Or it can be the other way around - we move to US, in New York perhaps, and subscribe to DirectTV in New York right away. hehe. But oh, Directv also has a variety of special offers, not to mention the various channels they can put into your TV itineraries! LOL!

Anyway, if that could not be possible, I think I should find another way of setting off my stress. Hmmm...what about videoke? Who wants to join me? Raise your hand! :D

Yeah. I intended to do that.

But I was afraid of finding myself stuttering.

And I do not like conversing with you that way.

Besides, I do not know what to say.

So sorry.

See You Soon Batanes!

Wuhoo! I won a free trip to any of South East Asian Airlines (SEAIR) Desitnation: Coron, Batanes, or Boracay. Can't believe that I won their contest at facebook! I won a free trip for two, pero wala pa akong isasama. Anyone, interested? LOL.

Among the destinations, I choose BATANES! Here, enjoy the place by seeing these photos:

I'll have to try a trike and jeepney ride there :DD

And do this cartwheel. LOL.

What also amaze me about the place are these animals which seem to be so tamed.

I wonder what happened to these houses. Hmm, I'm gonna find out soon.

And of course, one of my main reasons why I want to go to Batanes -- the lighthouse, that is.

I really got to see this breath taking view. See you soon.

And what about this sunset? I'm sure this photo will convince you to go with me :D

Gotta Really Love Math

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 10:32:00 +0000

Last week, I had my first job interview. I mean a 'real job interview'. Because my first interviews were when I was applying for a part time job, class mock interview, and mock interview conducted by one of the organizations in UP College of Eng'g. And unexpected as it was, I think I did not perform well. What I clearly remembered was when the interviewer asked me what my least favorite subject is, or in my case, was.

So guess what? Actually it's one of the hardest questions for me to answer. It even took me a bit longer to answer the question. Well, actually, it is easy to say any subjects, but what took me was that I was thinking on how I can defend my answer. After 5 seconds of thinking, I realized that it should not be taking me that long, so I answered...math! LOL. A very cliche answer.

Up until now, I haven't received any updates from that company and I know I was rejected. Haha. If only I got to defend all my answers clearly, I think they probably calling me now already. But, the heck! I even told the interviewer that I did not perform well in that subject. It's like I was saying them that..hey, I am not good in math, do not hire me! LOL. Yeah, considering that they are from IT Company. Yeah, boy, what a bad move. Well, at least I learned. If only I knew this Online tutoring and Math Help, I would have given a better answer to my interviewer. Oh, man, I should have tried this online Algebra Tutoring and Algebra Help before. Try it people! Who knows you'll be answering the same question as well. So better be ready. Hehe.

On Crowd Control

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 14:23:00 +0000

Hmm, February is fast approaching! And when it's February, every UP student is excited. Excited to experience another week-long concert, bazaare, and fun in what we call UP FAIR. Wuhoo! I, for one and for sure, will be attending this event since it would be my last fair as undergraduate student (crossing fingers).

Last year's fair had not been 'fair' for some people who attended it though. In the 5th day of the event, 'people' who were restricted to enter the event created a riot, to the point that they destroyed the fence around the venue. Hmm, but I do not mean that the crowd control capability and strategy of the organizers was not enough and effective. These 'people' I am talking about were really burning with rage for the reason that they were not allowed to enter the event. Well, I can say that the organizers' reason(s) for not letting them in were very valid and these 'people' had no reasonable reasons to act that way. How can the organizers allow them to enter if some of them did not have ticket as the main pass in the first place. Some were really dressed up like they're going to do something bad inside. They are type of 'people' who will give you a suspicious look as if they want to eat you up. They give you this look as if they want to beat you up if you're a guy, or give you a malicious look if you're a woman. I said that the fair is 'unfair' for some people because they have to suffer from physical injury and hospitalization because of the trouble brought by these 'people'.

These 'people' just don't understand what stanchions and barricades are! Hmm, hear me out 'people'...these are for crowd control! If you guys encounter these things again, for your mother's sake, please do read it as 'discipline'! As for my suggestion to the organizers, setting up a velvet rope might help. At least it will give them a sort of ooops-I-do-not-want-to-break-that-beautiful-barricade thinking. Haha.

Yet Another Typical Post

noreply@blogger.com (Leoj) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 10:40:00 +0000

I feel sad now because I still am not able to post my new year post. REAL new year post. Because I am now bombarded with blog tasks as well as my academics is starting to consume all my time and is now compelling me.

----

Anyway, I am starting to feel the fast shift of cold to hot weather. I remember some few years ago, the cold weather here in the Philippines starts from late November to early February. But now, ugh, it's just a week or so after the cold christmas season and it feels like summer already. Uhm, did I mention fast shift? Well, climate change, that is. Okay, I won't go into details about this technical stuff. Though I might some other time. :)

In countries like Philippines, you're fortunate enough if you have your house or room air-conditioned. But then, some are just contented in having electric fans. Aside from the energy savings, it also has decorative purpose when we're talking about Ceiling fans. You'll understand more if you're going to check Hansen Wholesale Ceiling Fans. They all have it for you, from simple to state-of-the-art types of Ceiling fans. What I also want from Hansen Wholesale is that they give a detailed yet very comprehensive answers to frequently-asked questions (FAQ) -- from sizing to energy saving, to maintenance, and all that what-you-need-to-know about ceiling fans. As for the choices, hmm, they have subcategorized the most unique types of ceiling fans into various Ceiling fan themes. They really got it all for you (LOL. Sounds like a theme song of a mall huh).
