It’s been awhile since I and hubby didn’t go out for a movie. He’s just too busy. Our guests from Thailand left only yesterday. They were here for 5 days. I always support my husband when he does member care for some workers but it always concerns me that he would spend every single bit of his time, even sleeping at an unholy hour just to do an extra mile. I have nothing against that. In fact, I admire him for having such a heart… but I think sometimes, he does it to the detriment of his health and even relationship with his family.
But he promised to take me to the movies tonight. And if he comes home early, we could watch District 9 the movie. It is directed by Peter Jackson. One cannot miss a movie directed by this talented film director. If we can’t go tonight, I’ll just wait until it’s out in the dvd’s. It would be nice to watch it on plasma tv on one of those plasma mounts. The bigger the screen, the better, right?
Anyways, here’s the trailer of the movie District 9. Really hope to see the movie tonight.
Here is one actress/artist that should be a good model in the world of show business. She’s one talented girl with a big heart for people. She’s known to be adopting children and she’s got kids her own. There’s a heresay that she wanted to adopt a kid in the Philippines but the government didn’t want her to. Not sure why. But anyways, I’m not a real fan of her acting but I like the way she portrays herself. Unlike other artists who just flaunt their delinquent ways.
She has received three Golden Globe Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and an Academy Award. Jolie has promoted humanitarian causes throughout the world, and is noted for her work with refugees through UNHCR. She has been cited as one of the world’s most beautiful women and her off-screen life is widely reported.
Well, that’s Angelina Jolie. What about me? What do I excell at? I think I’m good with blogging. Maybe I should join my blogs in BoB Awards. Maybe I could win one of those Blog Awards.
If you think I am good in blogging and my blogs are qualified, please nominate me in the Best of Best Awards!
I love hosting parties. I like to arrange our table for dinners. I love having tea parties at home. But usually, our parties start in October every year. Schenker’s birthday is in October. Samantha’s birthday and our wedding anniversary is in November. We celebrate Christmas in December and my husband’s and my birthday in January. Once October starts, I would be very busy planning for dinners/parties.
So this October, we’re celebrating my son’s 5th birthday. He specifically asked me whether we could celebrate his birthday in Megakidz, Midvalley mall. We’re not sure though because it is expensive to hold a birthday party there. Also, it’s a school break. Not sure whether his friends will be around to attend the party. Of course, I have to think of sending party invitations so I would know how many could attend.
Schenker’s and Samantha’s birthdays are exactly one month apart. So have to prepare in advance, especially on the finance department. Then a month later, there’s Christmas. And you have to think of gifts for friends and family members. There really is a lot of things happening for us, especially on the last few months of the year.
The good thing though is… I love doing it. I love preparing for parties. I love wrapping presents. I love cooking for guests (I just hate washing dishes). I love preparing our house.
I have given away a lot of things already. I didn’t wanna take the things we don’t need into our new home. I was telling my son that we have to give away some of his toys to poor children. He asked why? I told him they’re so poor they don’t have money to buy toys. He said: Mommy, I don’t want to give my toys. I asked why. He said: we better give money so they can buy new toys for themselves. LOL. So true. Why would we give them old ones, anyway? Sometimes kids have more logic than their parents.
I notice though that the more we give away things, the more we acquire more. For example, we’re giving away our cassette player but in return, I wanna buy an XBox! LOL.Last year when we went to visit friends for Chinese New Year, we had fun singing karaoke through an xbox. I’m sure my kids would love to have it too.
For the meantime, I will TRY not to accummulate things too much.
It’s all over the news. After 50 years, Michael Jackson’s life had finally reached its end. It was a sudden death, they say. The true cause of his death is still under investigation. Could it be due to medical malpractice? Wrong diagnosis? Wrong treatment? Nobody’s certain for sure.
There’s actually a lot of medical malpractice going on. That’s why there’s the existence of Rochester medical malpractice attorney to help you prepare your case. There are many types of medical malpractice. Some doctors can make mistakes just like that.
Of course I’m not blaming the doctors nor the hospital for MJ’s death. Like I said, the cause of his death is still not certain.
I saw this powerful rendition of Note to God by Charice. I searched for the Note to God lyrics and here they are:
If I wrote a note to God
I would speak whats in my soul
I’d ask for all the hate to be swept away,
For love to overflow
If I wrote a note to God
I’d pour my heart out on each page
I’d ask for war to end
For peace to mend this world
I’d say, I’d say, I’d say
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven’t got a clue
Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin wrong
On this road we’re on
If I wrote a note to God
I would say what on my mind
I’d ask for wisdom to let compassion rule this world
Until these times
If I wrote a note to God
I’d say please help us find our way
End all the bitterness, put some tenderness in our hearts
And I’d say, I’d say, I’d say
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven’t got a clue
Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin wrong
On this road we’re on
No, no no no
We can’t do this on our own
So
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven’t got a clue
Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin wrong
On this road we’re on
If I wrote a note to God

I’ve been watching movies ever since my problem of renewing my visa was solved. I’ve been using my sister’s portable DVD player. It’s funny because when I was in Malaysia, I was thinking of buying a new one. In fact, I looked around for it… but discovered it cost a LOT! Anyways, I found out that this one cost the same here in the Philippines. It’s actually very convenient to use this portable player. You can sit at any furniture, anywhere inside the house.The latest movie I saw was The Bedtime Stories which starred Adam Sandler. He’s really a good comedian. Anyway… I’m planning to watch more movies, thanks to my sister’s portable dvd player.
This is just another good find. If you’re an art lover, Park West Art Gallery offers an authentic art pieces that would surely give you a total satisfaction. Several times in a year they do an extensive gallery exhibitions of works by recognized masters and contemporary artists. Each year there are more than 50 artists visit the gallery for signings and events. For each event, catalogs are produced and distributed to their collectors throughout the world, which feature paintings, and graphic works of the artists in attendance, and the complete collections of their 23 gallery spaces. Isn’t that awesome? Once you have chosen the one you like, and buy it for your collection, they will give you a certificate of authenticity straight away. Indeed, it is a good find.
I finally remember One in a Million show tonight. I always remember to watch it during its repeats on Wednesdays. My 2 favorites, Sarah and Ayu are in top three. But Shila is realling shining… I like her too. So tonight there were three of them left. All girls. Girl power – that’s what Marion Caunter said. Sarah is still my top bet though.
By the way, I like Marion Caunter. She started doing the 8TV Quickie. From there she became a famous host. Now that she has grown her hair, I like her even better.
And after One in a Million, I was gonna turn off the TV already but American Idol came next. And I found out there’s another Filipino on top 24. Ramiele Malubay is the name. She did wonderfully beautiful. Simon Cowell just commented she out-sung everybody else tonight. Hopefully she will be the next American Idol winner. I just got a photoof her from Americanidol.com. She is really a great talent.
