The Promil Kid Drops the Bomb

Posted on September 30, 2007 by Yoshke in Family, Humor | 52 Comments

Of all the living things created by God, I love my nephew the most. I call him the Promil Kid. He’s the cutest thing. I’ve always written about him and he has won the love of the people around me even before they met him. I’m starting to think he could be my mascot for this blog. Something like Dexter. Someday when he’s old enough to discover what I’ve been doing to him, he’ll insist he get paid for every … →

Status: Well I’m so garish, a little unfairish… Music: Childish - Damien Rice Someone so dear to me has just so casually called me “childish” and “immature.” It’s not a big thing really. But I don’t know why I’m bothered until now. Maybe because I think it’s true. # # # I just got a new haircut. I don’t like it. Uh. I think I want to kill a hairstylist right now. I’m contemplating which weapon to use. Scissors? Blade? Razor? Hairspray? # # … →

Posted on September 20, 2007 by Yoshke in Lists, Movies, Reviews | 35 Comments

I’ve just finished preparing penne carbonara. Yum yum. But Gawd, I’m exhausted. And I refuse to eat it with parmesan cheese since Dam-dam used the poor cheese as a metaphor for his dandruff. GROSS! And there’s an epidemic affecting Film graduates in the blogosphere. First it was Ayn with her Top 70 Favourite Films. And then myself. And now, Dam-dam is starting to feature his Top 80. And Lei, Top 20. Come on, come on. Let’s compare afterwards. Hehehe. Anyway, … →

Man, Am I Proud!

Status: In Euphoria Music: What Goes Around – Justin Timberlake “…What goes around, goes around, goes around Comes all the way back around…” I interrupt my regular blogging updates with a great, great news. The UP Pep Squad finally wins back the UAAP Samsung Cheerdance Competition championship. Just when I decided not to go to the Araneta Coliseum to see it live because not the slightest expectation that this would happen entered my mind. But come on, after an embarrassing … →

It’s Easy; Let it Go*

Status: Reminiscin’ Music: By Your Side – Sade; Adia – Sarah Mclachlan Note: This was originally posted on my previous blog last year. I just want to repost this because today is my dad’s third death anniversary. Exactly a couple of years ago (now three), I lost my dad to liver cancer. Hmmm… Too bad I’m still here in the city while everyone in the family is in the province having a little dinner, perhaps. Last week, there was a … →

Let’s Talk Pink

Status: Oooh, these cute pink earphones… Music: Who Knew – Pink Everybody keeps noticing my light pink earphones lately. And they’ve been tormenting me, telling me so blatantly how GAY it is of me to actually own them. Well, I AM gay. So, what’s their problem?! I don’t get it. But then again, some of them don’t know about my pink secret yet. So okie, I guess, I get it. # # # Last weekend I was with two of my close friends. When Girl (obviously, name changed … →

Status: Pissed Music: The Power of Orange Knickers – Damien Rice and Tori Amos I had a terrible dream last night. In my dream, I failed the second of the three Foreign Service exams because I flunked the Foreign Language part. Gawd. God must’ve been telling me to brush up on my French now. But everytime I grab my readings, something tells me to just do something less boring, like, I don’t know, blogging. And yeah, I’m just too darn … →

My Top 50 All-Time Favourite Films (Part 2)*

Posted on September 8, 2007 by Yoshke in Lists, Movies, Reviews | 25 Comments

A’right. I think it’s time to go back to my countdown of my most-adored movies. If you missed the first set (50-41), click here. Anyway, I have to remind you again that this is not a list of the greatest films in history but my favourites. This list is very personal. And of course, my taste may not jive with yours. You can rant all you want if you find anything disagreeable, see if I care. (Taray!) Anyway, on with … →
