It has been said: all sin is robbery

I may still be living on the “high” of one of the best nights of my life. How apt that it was at High Street. I didn’t know it was possible to fall more in love with UDD but I did. Had photos taken with them BUT R’s camera got stolen the day after without having transferred the photos to  his laptop. So sad but it’s spilled milk. But no one can steal my memories of that night. Don’t even try.

being existential about this blog

I just realized that I don’t know what this blog is exactly for. Haha. I don’t know what to do with it. It does have this for an advantage: Not a lot of people know about this blog which makes it perfect as a ranting venue. I’m starting to think having multiple blogs is not such a good idea.

I love the concept of “I Am No Man” and I worked hard on trying to make this cohesive. But somehow it ends up at the least of my priorities. I wonder why — since WordPress is definitely way better than Blogger. Maybe because I don’t have a solid audience here that I regularly share myself to?

I will figure you out coz you’re too pretty to discard.

Star Trek Poster

Star Trek was just all kinds of AWESOME. The cast, the story, the pace, the editing, the score. I’m a JJ Abrams fan but even I was afraid he was going to mess it all up. One thing I missed though – Enterprise officers walking in the halls, talking. That’s just really minor.

And let me say: Puh-lease. Watching and liking the new Star Trek movie DOES NOT make you a “Trekkie.” I followed Star Trek Voyager and a bit of Deep Space Nine and I don’t have the guts to call myself one. Respect the real Trekkies, yo.

There are probably Star Trek purists rather unhappy with the new franchise. However, why make a new movie/reboot if it’s just gonna be the same as the old ones? Wouldn’t that totally defeat the purpose? And JJ Abrams is anything but conventional. I also think this movie will win new fans for Trek.

I want to watch it again. Trekkie or not, you should all try to catch in on the silver screen.

Beaming out now. Live long and prosper!

Boys of my dreams

For some reason I have this penchant of falling – at least a short while – for guys that I happen to suddenly dream about. This is not the case where you fall asleep thinking of some person and you end up dreaming about him/her. It’s just totally random.

Just yesterday, I dreamt of this guy who was my high school classmate. I have not seen him for what – two years – and suddenly he appears in my dreams? And the dream sequence is something that looks like it was taken from a Pinoy blockbuster valentine date movie.

In my dream, I was training for a marathon – yeah, it just keeps spewing more and more impossible scenarios. So I was jogging around UP Diliman (or at least I think it was UP Diliman judging from the landscape), and I bump into this guy from my high school who had just come from a basketball game nearby. Like what are the chances.
