Bolt I finally went to see Bolt with Lyndon yesterday. I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about it, although I did not know anything about the movie.

To be honest, I was actually rather skeptical, because Miley Cyrus is part of the cast. But it was actually rather nice. It was very funny, very entertaining, I didn’t get bored at all.

The graphics were pretty good, the dialogue was good enough, and the dubbing was okay. Fortunately, there weren’t much scenes which included Miley Cyrus’ voice (because I honestly can’t stand her voice), so I was kept happy all throughout the film. Haha.

Overall, it was impressive.

I was really tired when I got home, though. We watched the movie at Gateway Mall, and the floor where the cinema was located was packed full of people waiting in line to get tickets for Twilight. It was rather amusing, seeing fangirls scream over a cardboard cutout of Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, and having pictures of them taken with it. I have no idea why they were fawning over the cardboard cutout though. It was weird. I’d rather look at Moroccan decor.

As promised, I am going to blog about that thing that Feah, Dre and I have been working on. Feah and I have been talking about how we missed being part of a community or a message board for a while now. So we’ve decided to create Menage MB, which Dre offered to host. We hope to see you there!

Oh, and a certain DVD store here in the Philippines is offering a free mahogany seedling with every purchase of the special edition Wall-E DVD. Jeremiah and I are thinking of getting our own DVDs. It’s really ironic, though. The packaging for the Region 3 (Southeast Asian) version DVD uses up a lot of paper, as opposed to the Region 1 DVDs. So much for being environment-friendly. Heh.

Okay yay, I’m going to go see what kind of Moroccan decor there is… and then maybe go to bed. Let’s hope i actually get some sleep, eh?

Conversation with my thirteen year old brother.

Little brother (talking about me): When she’s out shopping with me, she’s like.. fine. But when it’s her, me and mom, she suddenly turns into… a girl!
Me (cuts in while dad is laughing in the background): Well, what am I supposed to be?
Little brother: I don’t know. My sister?
Me: Well aren’t sisters actually girls?

…Now that shut him up.

On how I unintentionally became an exhibitionist (without an audience) one morning.

Me: (talking to myself while walking across my room half naked to look into my closet) I wonder why my room is so bright this morning. It’s never usually this bright - holy crap!

…Our housekeeper apparently removed the curtains covering the glass door leading to my balcony while I was showering. Good thing my (male) neighbor across the street wasn’t out on his balcony when this happened. Remind me to check if my windows have curtains after showering everyday.

Feah, Dre and I are currently working on a certain project which I hope can be launched before the month ends. I’ll be blogging about it soon, when we’re sure it’s ready. :) No worries, it doesn’t require money, memory cards or whatever. :D

I’ve been looking around lately, making a list of presents for my friends and family. The list is around 90% done, and I’m already sure of what to give my relatives in friends.

The hard part is my goddaughters. I have two toddler goddaughters and I have no idea what to give them. I’ve had a few ideas, which include charm bracelets, toys and educational games, and clothes. I vetoed getting clothes, though, since toddlers grow out of clothing so fast.

I’ve been looking at this guide on gifts for babies and toddlers and a few other gift ideas as well. Here’s hoping I finally decide on something.
