Last night I watched the movie "Twilight" with Lyve and Reuben. About the movie, the story was too fast. Its like, the story would have been nice if they did not compress everything into a two hours movie. The way Bella figured out that Edward was a vampire, it was too unbelievable. I was not absorbed into the movie, which for me is a bad thing. A good movie for me is when you think that its actually happening, when you can put yourself into it. With "Twilight" it was like watching a two part episode of lets say Will and Grace, and you're watching the second episode when they're doing the recap. If you get what I mean then good for you. If not, then watch it and hopefully you will. If it was like Harry Potter where the story was divided into several movies, then "twilight" would have been awesome. Yes it would have been hell waiting for the next movie, but you're actually expecting it and you can't wait for it. I give the movie a thumbs down. I know that I've been giving scathing reviews to movies. Well what can I say, my standards are ridiculously high. If you're into films and stuff then you would understand where I'm coming from. But if you're like the masses or the "regular" people who enjoy mediocrity in everything, well then live and let live right?
After the movie, the three of us went around Baguio City and we we're out the whole night. All we did was talk and walk and talk and walk and spook some of the people in the street. I got home at around 6 am. And I haven't slept yet because I attended a Press Conference for the Department of Health. When I got home, this afternoon I found out that the unit next to mine was broken into. I dont know what was taken but all I can say is, serves them right for keeping the front door unlocked. Funny thing is, its the second time in 3 months that they got broken into. And little old me, Im safe in my apartment.
Well that sums it up. Again, watch out for Volume 2 of the Attrocities of Friendster. Its gonna be bigger and better. Also thank you to all of you who have been texting and e-mailing me saying you found it mean but very funny. Hope you like the next one.
Cheers.

My new toy...
So I decided to buy a Slide-Up phone. For the longest time, I've had the weirdest obsession with a slide phone. So yesterday, I went around Baguio City looking for a nice slide up phone. At first I wanted the N80 but I realized its to bulky and my P1i already has wifi so I dont really need it. So I found this shop that sold the Nokia 6288. At first they we're selling it for 4500PHP which was a little expensive for a second-hand phone. So I decided to pass. The whole afternoon, I went around looking and dammit, the 4500php was already the cheapest I could find. I was lucky because I just received my final pay from PeopleSupport so I had money to spare. Last night I could not sleep. All I kept thinking about was the phone. It wouldn't leave my head. And thats when I knew that I really wanted that phone. SO when I got up this morning, I went to the shop after my Photography Class and I tried to haggle with them. At first they didnt budge but after a while I was able to get them to lower it down from 4500PhP to 3700PhP. Whats great is, the 6288 looks exactly like the 6280 but the 6288 is much newer model and has a better features and firmware compared to the 6280. So I guess I was lucky on that. And I've been using the phone the whole day, so far no problems. And here it is.
Im gonna have this for a while then Im gonna dispose it in the future. Like I do with all of my phones.
Cheers.

My ZIPS are finally here
So boys and girls I'm finally back after a very long sabbatical. I went on vacation and I cut myself off from the world for a while, and that would include my blog. But thats not what I'm going to write about today. Today I would like to share my ZIPS with everyone.
The first time I saw Poi Dancing upclose was during the PeopleSupport Company Summer outing. Our Operations Manager, Tsok, Danced Poi using fire. I was amazed at how the flames moved so I snooped around the internet for information regarding Poi. Luckily I did (check my sidebar for the POI sites). I wanted a pair of Zips immediately but they could only be ordered in Manila. Lucky for me, my good friend Leo a.k.a. thehandbagtotingboy knew someone in Davao who made zips. Actually I wanted to buy his because that's how impatient I am but he said he'd prefer that I just order a newe pair since they only take a day to make. I said ok. I wired him the money and wouldn't you know it, the next day my zpis we're on their way to me. Alas I had to wait for a few more days because 2Go (the delivery company) delivered it 2 days late. I was so frustrated at first but when the package arrived all my frustration vanished. So here are a few pics of my zips.
Sorry about the Quality. Its was dark in room. Ever since I got, I cant get my hands of them. Its soooo much fun. Well for those of you who have been living under rocks, POI Dancing/Spinning was inspired by the dance called "Maori" from New Zealand. In Poi dancing you swing the Pois/Zips in certain rythmical patterns to create different forms. There are different types of POI's. There are Fire Poi's, LED Poi's, Flag Poi's, Ribbon Poi's like mine and much more. Here is an example of the patterns created by POI's when photographed with slow shutter speed:
*LED Poi's were used for this.
Again I would like to thank my friend Leo for my first pair of zips. I'll be ordering a new one this week. If you want a pair of zips which are of excellent quality yet affordable, dont hesitate to contact him at http://www.handbagtotingboy.blogspot.com/
*I would also like to that http://www.homeofpoi.com/ for the image
I'll be posting a video or pictures of me zipping soon.
Cheers.
