I used to look at the skies,
full of hopes and dreams;
and having an optimistic attitude
knowing that I will achieve my goals.
All of that changed
Eyes opened to the cruelty,
individuals dragging each other down;
and the cries of the hopeless.
But there’s always a ray of light,
a light that will shed;
and tear walls of darkness
hoping once again.
Raving feels for the movie *Ehem* Spoiler Alert
It was December 30, 2015. Mall of Asia Cinema 1
Actually my brother already said to me that I should choose between Ice Skating or My Bebe Love. It was a tough choice for me. I like ice skating, but I really want to watch My Bebe Love because of AlDub. (Oo, you heard it right. Nanood lang ako ng movie dahil gusto ko yung mga characters.) I’m fan of the love team. (Papanoorin ko parin naman kahit walang AlDub dun, pero mas malakas yung hatak kapag nandun sila.)
Of course, I’m writing this blog post right now because I chose to watch My Bebe Love instead of skating. And I didn’t regret it at all. Why, well I’ll tell you in a bit.
Thank goodness we watch the first showing. Lesser people, more fun. (Mas hindi nakakahiyang kiligin kasi wala ka naman katabi.) When me, my parents and grandmother found a sit at the left side corner. I already said to them that we should sit there. (Walang tao dun. Lahat sila na sa gitna.) What an introvert, I always feel awkward to feel giddy when some stranger is sitting right beside me.
Thanks to my brother, I have one whole bag of popcorn all by myself.
*internally screaming*
A lot of people was screaming out loud when the show started.
The first scene was really funny. When Ai Ai’s character, Cora, got hit by Vic Sotto’s character, Vito. A great way to start a feel good movie is to have a good fitful laughs. Some part of this scene were shown to the trailer, but the banter between the main characters was not there. (Maligno!)
Cora is a rich woman, who turns out to be a victim of false love. She had a boyfriend and they always go to this bar where they bond together. (Cora brought Vito here in the latter part of the movie) She have a nephew, Dondi, who’s a charming, obedient young man. (Anna’s love interest.) On the other hand, Vito is Cora’s mortal enemy ever since their first encounter. His daughter Anna, happened to be attracted to Cora’s nephew. That’s where the plot runs.
Ai Ai and Vic Sotto combination turns out to be good. Both are professional comedians, they did a lot of comedic stunts that is really funny. Cora singing Aegis’ songs was really funny. A typical middle-age woman singing a heart break song in a bar. Who also appears to be hysterical because of the pain she’s experiencing. Vito trying to kiss Cora. *laughs* It was tedious, it’s so hard to stop laughing on this scene. (Yung halatang-halatang attracted na sila sa isa’t isa pero ayaw nilang aminin.)
The good thing about this movie is that it have a simple plot, which can be enjoyed by the whole family. (Even a child can understand what’s happening.) There are some ‘child should not know’ stuffs. (Lambanogpamore!)
Cora and Vito (The mortal enemies at first, but turns out they like each other)
ALDUB *Ehem* Spoiler Alert
Their first meeting was really good. The awkwardness in the atmosphere, kalyeserye vibes and their eyes. (Shet halatang kinikilig ako.) It’s like a normal love at first sight, but the vibe they show is really unique. Maybe you can relate to it when you watch the movie.
Giving the first awkward hi and hello, texting in the middle of the night, trying your best to look good, HHWCC (Holding Hands While Chika Chika), giving your phone number and trying to hold your feels. Dondi and Anna’s relationship is forbidden because their guardians are both on a war. (Which in the latter part of the movie join forces to break their relationship.)
Dondi the nerdy, geek kind of character. 
Anna the bratty, rich daughter of a C.O.O.
The movie is really good. Everyone in the production did justify what they want the people to watch. *insert thumbs up*
I recommend this movie to those who likes simple plot, less characters and feel good kind of movie.
Kalyeserye Feels
Watching ‘kalyeserye’ makes me forget my worries.
The segment affects me big time. I get emotionally affected of the split screen love between Alden and Yaya Dub (Maine Mendoza). From the first time they met July 16, 2015 up to now their 25th weeksary. I can say that, “I will not feel tired of supporting the segment.” The both of them shows genuine feelings. The way they look to each other, I can see the sparking fireworks everywhere. When they smile to each other, you can feel the ‘kilig’ factor, which people love (like me). Their corny punchlines to each other, which make me laugh big time. You can feel the butterflies in your stomach while watching them. For me, ‘Kalyeserye,’ it’s one heck of a stress reliever.
Sa Tamang Panahon
This event was so memorable to me.
I didn’t go to my classes that day just to watch it live on television. I felt really guilty that day, but the feeling of happiness overwhelmed it. So … yeah, I don’t regret doing that.
I was internally screaming, while watching it.
I can’t shout that day because my family was watching also. I just kept my fanboy feelings inside my invisible bottle of feelings.
I got teary eyed.
Oh yeah, I want to cry. Like cry with feelings. It’s so hard to contain the feels, especially when Alden arrived outside the arena. I want to shout, “Shit parang ikakasal na sila!” I was really swoon by his dashing debonair appearance.
I cried.
When I saw Maine in her beautiful gown. I can’t contain my feelings anymore. I cried. Why did I cry? I cried because I saw hope. Hope that when the thing you wish for is really for you. Wait for the right time and it will come. Maine’s secret dream was to become an artist. Look now she’s really popular. Her dream came true.
All the feels flew out.
Seeing them smiling. Alden and Maine’s smile when for the first time they can hold hands, hug and talk without Lola Nidora getting angry.
Their chemistry can make you believe that there’s forever in love. That destiny will lead you to the right person ‘SA TAMANG PANAHON.’
P.S. I’m going to make another entry like this for the Lolas and whenever I feel like to share my feels.
*insert confetti*
I’m not going to make new year’s resolution.
If I want to change something in my life.
I know that I can find a solution.
I want to follow life’s jive.
And enjoy what life have for me.
*insert poppers*
Fireworks everywhere, lovers everywhere and here I am enjoying the scene.
I feel jealous because they have a special someone, not family relative, friend or a stranger,
But I’m much more happy not to be seen.
For I know that someday, I will have you to be there.
Happy 2016!
It’s funny to say that today I cooked my first pancakes.
It turned out to be so fun and epic.
The first pancake I made turned out to be so toasted and black. It’s epic cause I remember every firsts that I had in my life. I guess it’s the effect of Christmas season. You remember the good times, especially the firsts.
*insert laughing*
I don’t know I just want to share this tiny experience.
Happy Holidays!
We all have dreams we want to pursue. Dreams that are unreachable in some ways and reachable with hard work. Some people will question your dream. Like,
“Why do you want to pursue that?”
“Do you have the talent to achieve your dream?”
“Do you what it takes?”
“Are you willing to sacrifice the things you love?”
Etc.
These questions tend to kick us back to our comfort zone and decide to stop pursuing what you want.
Not everyone is meant to become what they want, but everyone has the right to pursue what they want.
Always remember that a flower doesn’t bloom without the help of the sun. Same as to an actors/actresses without their fans they wouldn’t be where they are.
You will not achieve your dreams alone. You will be help by the people surrounding you. Always remember that, “No man is an island.”
Happy Holidays!
A best way to end a year is to make a blog. How marvelous! Well, I think I’m just going to share my stories here or just rant about simple things. First of all, I would like to introduce myself. I’m Andie, it’s my nickname, I live in the southern part of Luzon in the Philippines. I was born on July 19, 1998 at our house. I’m currently a college student in a University found at Espana, Manila. Don’t expect too much, I’m not a person that comes from a wealthy family or a dashing debonair kiddo. I’m just simple.
I asked my friends what word/s will they use to describe if they’re random strangers.
“Mukhang Suplado.”
“Mukhang Mataray.”
“Mukhang Masungit.”
“Mukhang Babae.”
“Mukhang Tibo.”
“Mahinhin.”
Which is in contrast to my personality. They said that I carefully pick which people will see my outrageous personality.
Conversation with my colleagues.
“You do a lot of wacky faces every time we took pictures, which made us smile.” one of my friend said.
“You’re really reserved and quiet whenever you’re alone.” another friend said.
“You’re a head turner in many ways.” They all laughed when she said this. “What I meant is that, Andie is really mysterious. *pointing to me.* This person is a jack of all trades.”
“Totoy na medyo Nene.” Patchee suggested.
I laughed when she said this. I think it’s really true in many ways. I’m so girly, but I have a lot of mannerism that normal guys have. I sit with my legs wide open when I’m with my friends, but in contrast to that I sit elegantly when I’m alone.
“The ‘masungit part,’ I think that’s my thinking and also resting face.” I explained.
“You know, Andie always smiles whenever a beautiful or handsome person appears in the scene.” One of them pointed out.
“Hey, I’m just amazed.” I said in my defense.
That’s all guys! I hope to start a new journey with you. Let’s enjoy this Christmas season and spread the love. Let’s also welcome the coming of 2016.
Happy Holidays!
