Review: Remember Me

First things first. I honestly want to say that I watched this movie for only 1 reason. I can't wait for Eclipse (Twilight Saga) to be shown on June 30 for I need a doze of Robert Pattinson. And yes, I did read the synopsis @imdb but it was not very helpful at all. I just knew that its a love story period. But I was wrong. very wrong.

I am very selective of the movies I post a review on. I did watch more than a few this year.. (Toy Story 3, The Karate Kid, A-Team, Letters to Juliet, Killers, Iron Man2, Alice in Wonderland, Robin Hood..etc..) but haven't really gotten the urge to create a review on them. Maybe because I knew a lot of people already know about how good these movies are.. and they are widely anticipated by many. But stories that you'd rather wait to be shown on HBO until you actually saw it on HBO and say.. why did I just saw this movie?? I should have known and watched this years ago.

If you wanna be Cool...wear cool shirts!

If you are a fan of online shopping and loves to wear cool tees.. then Threadless is the store for you.

I was introduced to this site by a friend from work and since October of 2009, I have been purchasing their shirts for me and my boys. Since they have new designs every month... i buy shirts every month :) (I know, I'm addicted already!).

GOOPED!

I chanced upon the blog site of GOOP and was surprised to see that it belongs to Gwyneth (Paltrow)...yes the actress who plays Pepper Potts in Iron Man (1&2) Reading through her archives was very entertaining and great source of ideas :-) Just like their new loft in  Nashville which was converted to their temporary home in 10 days! Whoa! Who would have thought fuchsia would look good on a wall?

Now I am officially Gooped! Signed up here> http://goop.com/?page=signup_subscribe

TEN SIGNS OF A GOOD RELATIONSHIP

After reading about the announcement of Al & Tipper Gore’s pending divorce. I was led to the website of  divorce360 (http://www.divorce360.com/) and there found a Marriage Calculator  which  calculates your chances of getting divorced. I’m married for 4 years and going 5 on September 3 and for curiosity I tried filling in the calculator and see what are my chances. Of course who would want to be divorced… but lets say hypothetically all the factors are at hand.. below is my result:

Father's Day

I think all fathers were out of the house with their kids and wife... for dinner or lunch and a movie afterwards..why? because the cinemas were jam packed! We went to 2 different malls to check out which ones still have seats for Toy Story 3.

STACCATO

In choosing the right shoes..its always comfort before price-tag. Good thing I work hard for the money :) Do I sound defensive? haha! Well one thing I love about attending weddings.. i think i said this before.. its the guilt free shopping for shoes :) and dress.

Making my burger count

You should too! isn't it great that while you get to enjoy a cheeseburger you are helping kids learn how to read and appreciate books.its a win win!

First Day of Kindergarten

It's the First day of School for Andre at Montessori Education Center of Asia Pacific in CASA B . ..and its not just him who is excited. I too was excited for my little boy who's not at all little anymore.

I stayed till 2am just to finish covering up his 15 Workbooks (OMG! yes that much books for a kindergarten!).. woke up early to make sure everything he need is ready

Uniform, shoes, books, bag, baon, camera (of course!)..hay its like me going to school all over again.. but this time, proud of what my big boy has accomplished and going to in the next 10 months.

Pasta Carbonara

Filipino traditions always includes a pansit or spaghetti on the menu whenever there's a birthday because the long strand of pasta/ bihon is a symbol of long life. For Andre's 4th birthday last Sunday, it was a Spaghetti Carbonara. I'm not a fan of creamy carbonara so I cooked something a bit more different.

It still includes cream on the ingredients but its enough not to make it too dry.

Oh Boy! He's Four!

We celebrated a fun-filled AJ day at Trinoma Mall, where AJ spent half a day doing the things he love.. Rode the Balloon Wheel (a mini-Ferris wheel), the train, a helicopter, played bowling then air hockey with daddy and a random kid. Also spent an hour at Little Martians to go up and down the slide.. after an hour of nap, ended the day with a carousel ride. Happy 4th birthday AJ!

Review: SATC 2

Inspired by Carrie (not anymore Bradshaw) Preston to write again. This time its a review of their movie Sex and the City 2. Hands down Kim Cattrall's Samatha Jones is so funny even if her jokes are all sex related. I love Kristin Davis' facial expressions especially at when she is looking at  Erin-the-bra-less-nanny.Cynthia Nixon played her so-serious-vacation-planner Miranda Hobbes character at her best..I find her funny during the bar scene with Charlotte where she keeps on saying 'SIP!' whenever Charlotte doesn't have the courage to say out loud her frustrations on motherhood. As for Sara Jessica Parker (aside from the outrageously-you-can't-wear-this-clothes-unless-you-are-a-movie-star wardrobe), Carrie has lost that Manhattan sparkle. I saw the lines on her forehead and eyes and said to myself, she just looked OLD for this character.

Celebrating the Old & New

I knew she was deteriorating. Slowly giving up on me. I don't blame her. She has been serving me and keeping my feet safe and dirt free for 6 years. But I didn't expect it to be this soon. As in today! You totally gave up on me. But I understand and I want you to know that I don't have any ill feelings towards you leaving me this way..with no choice but to replace you ASAP.

We met at the Women's Nike store, circa 2004, February. That was in time for the opening of Gold's gym in Galleria. My friends and I signed up for membership and are all excited to try out all sorts of classes and sweating it out on the machines with our workout program especially customized for us by a trainer.
