Life still sucks, but not totally. I saw two pretty good movies in the past few days. And they come highly recommended. Go watch
American Pie 2 (am I the only one in America that hasn't seen the first one?) and
The Others. I think American Pie has gotten unfair reviews. All this time I thought the movie would be a completely gross and shoot-me-please idiotic movie. Not at all. I actually really enjoyed. It wasn't corny, it was stupid at times, but forgiveable. Ewan, basta, gusto ko siya. And I wish I wasn't a total scaredy cat and closed my eyes/ears during the good parts of the movie, but The Others is definitely the kind of movie you'd want to watch a second time. Carefully.
Oh and I wrote a stupid song. Wrote the lyrics at a diner with B when I grew tired of whining about how sucky things are and wrote the music on my bed on my guitar. I just made sure (actually I didn't have much of a choice) they were with chords I knew well. I can only play E, Em, G, A, Am, and D with ease. I can badly play F, Fm, C, Dm. And even worse, I can sometimes play Bm and F#, but only if the Song Hits song is really great and I just have to play it. Like the Eraserheads' Magasin. Whoa, neat site, Eraserheads. Oh, and my song, tentatively titled, "Apple Pie Ala Crap" has these chords: E, A, and D but not necessarily in that order.
Oh! And I finally got to read Arnold Arre's graphic novel Trip to Tagaytay which hopefully will be reviewed in the next issue of maARTe. I am inspired by this quote from the graphic novel: Dream. That's all I need to do.
Now if only I wasn't afraid to dream once again.
