The very thought of it makes us smile..or not..well for the call center workforce maybe it is not the same case always, but nevertheless it is a happy day for many who wants to see their families or friends or significant others.It is a day to go whew or say , what a week, or say thank God this week is over, and then you sit back kick off your smelly shoes (tired feet from all the commute) and drink wine..hmm wine ba or coke pwede na.. basta fizzy. All week I tried to distract myself from getting depressed because Friday was so far away, I rented videos from Video city and had a movie marathon, to try to change the routine and inject something spontaneous in my life. If I had a car I would probably go somewhere and bring my cousins or friends somewhere to have a dinner or isaw sa may kanto, just to breakaway from all the same things that I do everyday, or just to inject that some chaos in a life that should be orderly, but alas not everything we wish can be given to us all at once, ika nga in God's perfect time. Don't get me wrong I don't live a highly functional life and I'm not a career-oriented person because I'd like to think that the creative side of my brain , that part that likes the arts and that hedonistic part wants to rule the rest of my brain.I'm blabbing and yapping but all i want to say is Thank God for Fridays, otherwise we won't feel as grateful like I do right now and I'm writing because it is a Friday the 13th..(and I like ironies)..moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-42144533089564382732010-07-16T22:03:00.000-07:002010-07-16T22:07:39.348-07:00I WRITE LIKEI Write Like is the newest -iwl.me (website), craze by writers.They paste a text onto it and it analyzes which author's work your work can be compared to.The maker of the website is a young Russian guy who aimed that the website be more educational than entertaining.He said that it all boiled down to the choice of our words.Apparently in all my blogs posted here, my choice of words resemble that of Kurt Vonnegut, HP Lovecraft and David Foster Wallace.This website kinda makes you feel good and you should try it too.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-29747701056554830922010-07-05T05:34:00.000-07:002010-07-05T06:04:29.083-07:00New President for 2010President Benigno Aquino's win did not come as a surprise to many hopefuls like me who believe that the Filipinos or a majority of us still know the difference between water and sand. In Allan Shepard's words (The American President movie), during economic or any trying times in a nation, the people can sometimes be likened as people in the dessert sometimes they can't differentiate the water from sand. I have high hopes and expectations of this term but I am sure that not all would be fulfilled since you have to uproot the roots that have been there already for several years.<br /><br />The healing will start with the leader like President Aquino and then will affect the rest of his team but not the rest of the local government because it is still a question of the personal will to curb the desire for more.<br /><br />Being selfless is not easy and thinking of others' welfare is not convenient. I hope that with the new leader of the country, a lot of people can see insight into what being honest and having integrity means. I'm not hoping for a 360 degree turn around of the politics here in the Philippines but I'm just happy to know that after six years, we will see the budget deficit of our country become the lowest again. It is hard to tell if I would be as honest as the Aquinos can be because it is DNA ingrained on them but they give me the hope and they give me inspiration to follow.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-51353102877902604072010-01-30T05:07:00.000-08:002010-01-30T05:16:25.557-08:00Skating movies..<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/S2QxF7jECpI/AAAAAAAAACQ/SDhuNxUBhO0/s1600-h/Cutting_edge.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 212px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/S2QxF7jECpI/AAAAAAAAACQ/SDhuNxUBhO0/s320/Cutting_edge.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5432521028469525138" border="0" /></a><br />V day is just right around that itty bitty bend..I find movies with skaters very romantic.The last movies with skaters have been ages ago.Maybe one of the movie execs can pick up on this thought and make one.I liked Cutting Edge,, so maybe it can be Cutting Edge 2 or 3.

I think that it is easy for the owners to let the old ferries travel like that overloaded because they are not riding it. It is just too bad for the people with low incomes to resort to riding those ferries so they can just go home for the holidays and then sinking in the middle of the ocean. I wish the owners would also take care of the lives of their passengers who in the end make them rich. Life is fragile along with death comes the fact that the people they leave behind also become broken for a long while.For the owners, it is just easy for you to use these old ferries/barges for your business because you won't be riding it anytime soon.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-37876304288987046172009-12-26T09:56:00.000-08:002009-12-26T10:08:07.571-08:00Our Seasons Are Like Human MoodsDon't you agree that our changing seasons are like our moods. We feel the happiest during the merry months of November and December. We feel depressed during cloudy and windy months even on rainy ones as well. We feel sensual during summers and we also loose our cool literally during summers. We also feel balanced during Spring just like how everything around us during that time. Im a very emotional person and sometimes how I behave depends on my moods. My mind cannot really take control of how I act coz my moods at most times get the best of me, so m point is..after all this joyful times high times comes the low times..the crash after the super duper rise and everything falls on your face..all the money lost to have those good times but its all worth it anyways.However hindi na nga festive yung mood. Wala ng reason to celebrate and smile and give cheer.If only it were Christmas and New Year every month noh..hindi kaya tayo magsawa din.As long as it is something not often done it is something thrilling.I guess most of us aren't routine based people after all. We crave for the thrill and I mean who would not right. We crave for the adrenaline rush and the kick of just letting loose and going out of the ordinary. Anyways I am just basically ranting this early on because sooner or later since time goes by so fast..it would be New Year and after that hurrah ..comes another ordinary time..another ordinary day back to all the usual routine..back to the reality..back to our 340 days of ordinary..Anyways I am not being sad about it.Im just feeling a bit anxious about the end of all these festivities.I mean we can always choose to be ordinary or extraordinary..and its up to us all the time..moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-4083794732304130262009-12-13T07:42:00.000-08:002009-12-13T07:59:36.889-08:00December Night SkyNothing is like December's night sky. One of the best things about the winter season is the night sky. It is really amazing. The sky is full of illuminating diamonds. They all shine brightly as if joining humanity in celebration of a joyous season. There has been debates in the past that the birth of Christ is not really in December, and it could be true but as for me there is no better season for it than December. I cannot imagine Christmas in the Summer or during rainy days. This season is just right to be merry and give stuff to friends and relatives. Oooops i am sidetracking..<br />December night sky.. the most prominent stars are the three kings stars or Orion's belt stars. You can clearly see them at a clear night sky. It is also the best time to watch meteors descend. At the end of all the shopping you should do for food and for gifts, you should try looking up at the night sky and you will immediately know the reason for the season.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-56370504828956065882009-12-03T22:05:00.000-08:002009-12-03T22:10:49.552-08:00Opinion on MakeundersMAKEUNDERS... what the heck is that?.. Lately we have been witness to a new trend, makeunders of famous celebs. This trend is a huge blah. I mean look at the pictures. They still put powders on their faces. They still have some chapstick on their lips so it really defeats the purpose of showing ur real face to the world because they still put on a bit of foundation and some nude make up. I think I just got irritated because they are trying to tell us they look pretty even without makeup on but they never really go to any event without makeup on even in their movies come on.

It would have been his greatest or one of the best. He can still dance like there is no tomorrow.He can still move his hips like any young dancer.He can still sing his songs very well.I was able to catch a glimpse to how a perfectionist he really is.He still manages to be one of the main brains to the creative side of his concert. He is not a musician but he can give good tips to the musical director. He also knows how to captivate the audience's attention with his fingers and with his feet. It is a movie that will make you miss MJ. I especially like the part where he mentioned his brothers and kids after doing a round of Jackson 5 songs. He really meant it when he mentioned his family.That part was like a semi premonition.Its not like I am a close friend of Michael Jackson's that's why I miss him ..I miss him maybe because there seems to be no living musical great anymore..all of them have moved on to the after life.It makes me sad in a way.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-79517209433262736202009-10-22T09:27:00.001-07:002009-10-22T09:33:11.520-07:00Seasonal Affective DisorderSeasonal Affective Disorder or SAD is a condition wherein one gets depressed or moody because of the changing season. I don't really know if I have this but then again I am diagnosed with other stuff too so who knows (bite me na )..Well i guess most people have this wherein you feel the coldness of the wind or the gloomy skies and you feel sad coz of it for some unknown reason. You just feel being in your room and curling up so you can just rest and close your eyes and let the world go around without you. I guess i have this condition a month before my bday. I guess its because I will get older meaning I will realize that I have been here on earth for this long without much progress in terms of social skills rudiments after all. Anyhow I also feel the autumn wind and it feels as if days are just so quick that in a few months it will 2009 will culminate already and welcome another year. I am not yet ready for another year of muddling through again. I don't really know what to do for this gloomy SAD feeling except that I have to go through with my daily activities and go on. I mean how do you catch a cloud and pin it down ? I guess like that line from that Christmas song, Well we just have to muddle through somehow.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-63492560325706104832009-10-03T09:35:00.000-07:002009-10-03T09:41:43.239-07:00The Kite RunnerThis I think was a movie that won the Best Oscar award for Foreign Language film.

Yes, that is exactly the word I had when I saw the devastations in the neigboring places in Cainta. Our place, Greenwoods Village is sandwiched by Pasig and Cainta.Both places have been badly hit by Ondoy rains. Anyhow, what happened to Cainta is a huge flash flood but the one in Pasig whose roads we take to get out of our village and to go to the city is still flooded up to now.We have to take the back road in Taytay to get out and get to work. Its a troublesome route and it is also tiring since we are commuters.However I realized later on that this is a much better predicament than what other Filipinos are in. They have lost so many things and others even lost loved ones.It is so hard trying to recover from such a tragedy.<br />I think there are lots of things we should learn from this tragedy AND it will be such a shame if we still dont realize and ACT on it. We are a country surrounded by waters and a tropical country at that and it is no wonder that typhoons will always hit us and Ondoy will not be the last. I think we should also have plans in the future of planting trees in cities. In lots where we can allot for trees. Trees are indeed one of man's truest bestfriends. We then realize that even the tallest and strongest of structures will not match the power of nature.We should also think of ways how to have a better and effective flood control system AND ONE THAT ACTUALLY WORKS. We should include flood control system in the future president's top agenda.<br />Another realization is that you should always be friendly with your neighbors no matter what. The last realization i have is that Filipinos are so compassionate,helpful and hopeful.We still manage to smile and we still manage to help with what little we have.I think we should not forget that as much as we are our brother's keeper , we are also mother nature's keeper and this should be our priority more than anything else right now. Mother nature is poking us way too hard for us to wake up to her call, let's not ignore.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-88312958867303638772009-08-31T05:44:00.000-07:002009-08-31T05:57:05.398-07:00Ugly Truth<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SpvIgpXTvEI/AAAAAAAAACI/b3Ohz7kFU0o/s1600-h/ugly_truth_ver2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 215px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SpvIgpXTvEI/AAAAAAAAACI/b3Ohz7kFU0o/s320/ugly_truth_ver2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376111043381804098" /></a><br />This movie is a funny movie no wonder it also became a hit in U.S. The movie earned good reviews mainly because of Gerard Butler's comedic portrayal of an alpha male and Katherine Heigl's portrayal of the common controlling woman trying to snag a man. The two definitely has chemistry on this film and they made it work for this film.Like all romedy(romantic comedy) movies of course the main characters end up together not really married but together but people still watch it because it makes us feel good that after all that trouble our main heroes still end up being with each other.One of the highlights which for me is a breakthrough which other comedy films have never done before is the use of the vibrator panty with a remote control.If you see the film you will know what I mean. I give this movie 3.5 stars!moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-39944038336314016972009-08-04T21:01:00.000-07:002009-08-04T21:32:10.055-07:00Review on The ProposalThe Proposal starred Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock.It is a funny film thanks to Ryan's comedic skills.Sandra Bullock on the other hand played the stiff boss pretty well.The movie however lacked the substance on how love was actually developed between them.I think this movie has marked Reynolds' niche in the romantic comedy genre.This would not be a movie where you end up gushing and longing for a significant other.This is a movie where you would laugh more than do that.I also don't see the romantic chemistry between the two but they do work well as partners in making a comedic film.I give this movie 3 stars out of five after all it is entertaining.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-13204099178441387402009-08-04T20:57:00.001-07:002009-08-04T21:00:49.669-07:00One Classy Woman with A Great Love StoryPresident Cory Aquino was one classy woman.She shared with us her kindness among other things she has done for the country.We can all relate to her kindness and sincerity.She shared with us her great love story.Her life was a lengthy love story between her and her husband,Ninoy Aquino.She continued his fight to show her love for him and for the country that needed her.She will be remembered always as the one famous Filipino with the classiest life and the classiest burial.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-75459749394864473862009-08-03T02:36:00.000-07:002009-08-03T03:07:12.791-07:00The President Who Campaigned for Prayer<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sna2xuhyn8I/AAAAAAAAACA/jJcSRqS9VVQ/s1600-h/yellow-ribbon.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 123px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sna2xuhyn8I/AAAAAAAAACA/jJcSRqS9VVQ/s200/yellow-ribbon.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365676971478130626" /></a><br />I was just five years old when Edsa I happened.I could still remember how my late younger brother John-John was still shouting Cowee Cowee Cowee along with the other people we see on the television. The late President Cory Aquino became the voice of freedom at that time.She continued what Benigno Aquino started.She faught for him, her family and eventually she faught for all of us because she believed in equality for all.There was a report that also said that Pres. Aquino was a humble president. She never abused her power even in the little ways like using the wang wang.Among all the things she has done I guess one that stands out the most is her being the model of great faith that during adverse times she would always advise anyone to pray.She would just pray and for her it was the greatest weapon against anything.We believed her because we see her doing it, not like other people who tell us to have faith but we can't relate well because we don't see an example.In a way I would agree with one of the facebookers saying she should be considered a saint because I think she has lived a life of less sins among us all.She was simple in her ways and humble in her achievements.We can see her modesty in her face and in her clothes.Everything she did she did because it will make her closer to heaven.I think she is there now with our hero, Ninoy Aquino. Just like Ninoy Aquino she is also our hero, a hero who will always campaign for the power of prayer even in heaven.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-36115122446113553232009-07-28T06:16:00.000-07:002009-07-28T06:43:42.520-07:00The allure of the Vamps<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sm8Abp9zJXI/AAAAAAAAAB4/9ayK3LeYqUs/s1600-h/MV5BMTEwMzEyODMxMDReQTJeQWpwZ15BbWU3MDM5MTMyNjI@._V1._SX95_SY140_.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 95px; height: 140px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sm8Abp9zJXI/AAAAAAAAAB4/9ayK3LeYqUs/s200/MV5BMTEwMzEyODMxMDReQTJeQWpwZ15BbWU3MDM5MTMyNjI@._V1._SX95_SY140_.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363506156343076210" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sm8AbQdbXDI/AAAAAAAAABw/wEwwSvEqhWE/s1600-h/MV5BMTY0ODA1OTY4Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNTI2Mzc1Mg@@._V1._SX94_SY140_.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 94px; height: 139px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/Sm8AbQdbXDI/AAAAAAAAABw/wEwwSvEqhWE/s200/MV5BMTY0ODA1OTY4Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNTI2Mzc1Mg@@._V1._SX94_SY140_.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363506149496413234" /></a><br />Vampires have always attracted the interest of so many for ages. We often wonder if they are indeed monsters we should be scared of if they do exist. We often wonder if they still feel human emotions despite their thirst for human blood.Can they still care after all? Shows /movies like True Blood and Twilight have tapped into this curiousity. They show the humane side to a vampire not the barbaric side that we have seen in stories about Dracula.The vamps in these shows are handsome and can attract anyone they like to suck blood from yet they choose to mainstream to act like they are just one of us.It is no wonder why a lot of us (yes including me) are hooked to these shows.It is a great challenge for them to stop their urge and to fight their very own nature. The next highlight for those shows is the romantic relationship that develops between them and their kind hearted and selfless girls but that is one of the boring aspects of the shows because its already a given. The main point we are all excited to see is the eventual transformation of the girls transform from humans to vamps as their wives.It is also exciting to see how the evil vamps find the girls yummier to eat or have after developing a relationship with the vamp which means they are no different from humans where people attached to someone else seem more attractive to most people than those who are singles. <div><br /><div>top five people I find beautiful/good looking in the Vamp shows (apart from the main cast):</div><div>top 5 - Alice Cullen played by Ashley Greene</div><div>top 4- Esme Cullen - Elizabeth Reaser</div><div>top 3 - Lafayette - Nelsan Ellis</div><div>top 2 - Tara -Rutina Wesley</div><div>top 1- Dr. Carlisle - Peter Faccinelli</div></div>moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-78093371672728820822009-07-07T04:26:00.000-07:002009-07-07T04:39:55.380-07:00the Legacy of Michael JacksonI haven't been online much coz our hd crashed. I think the world is touched by the death of Michael Jackson because he is one of the few living legends. Most artists now are mediocre. He was a genius. It's just sad that everyone noticed him when he died. No company would even insure him anymore when he was still alive. I can liken him to Vincent Van Gogh. He was greatly noticed when he died. I think everyone was gripped with loneliness when we learned of his death mainly because he was not only the strongest music when we were growing up but we also never saw him become unfair to anyone. He always paid everyone well. He never showed any sign of arrogance to anyone. He was a manchild but he was a kind heart. His greatest legacy is not just his music but his kindness. He was more than fair even to those alleged victims of molestation of his. We will miss his presence. The king of pop and we can all agree that no one else can ever claim that title.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-5190365629017074422009-06-25T05:47:00.000-07:002009-06-25T05:53:20.169-07:0021 Guns lyrics<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SkNzK7bXxFI/AAAAAAAAABo/EDKn-u8B3_Y/s1600-h/green_day-21st-century-breakdown.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SkNzK7bXxFI/AAAAAAAAABo/EDKn-u8B3_Y/s200/green_day-21st-century-breakdown.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5351247413834662994" border="0" /></a><br /><strong></strong>I think this song is appealing to me more now that I have watched Transformers.

This is our bonding movie. All in all i give it four stars. You have to give it to the computer/technical guys who made those images of the robots making them transform in a very fascinating way like they are really real. Bumblebee rocked in this movie.He actually kicked the ass of one of the Dicepticons.There are some things in the movie that is predictable like the alien woman pursuing Sam.The chemistry between Shia and Megan Fox is evident this time around however Megan seems to be consciously and always pouting her lips a lot making all the guys in the cinema happier. I really think she can pull off the Lara Croft role because she has the fierce eyes without trying too hard just like Angelina not that she can be the next Angelina. I am just saying she can be Lara Croft but never Angelina. Besides it is better to build your own niche in the big Hollywood industry. She should give drama a try after she does Lara Croft. Shia on the other hand has a good looking geeky boyish appeal. He can't look tough but he really looks kind and trustworthy. I can tell that the director really worked hard for this movie and I can understand the burn out of Michael Bay that made him say that this would be his last Transformers film. Watch out for the following:<br />1. Bumblebee's rocking moves<br />2. the ancestors<br />3. Mikayla's pouty lips<br />4. Sam's transformation as part of the all spark and as a leader<br />5. Optimus Prime in the woods<br />6. songs that we can currently hear in our favorite radio stations like Rx (Manila)moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-7956634480608948712009-06-19T10:18:00.000-07:002009-06-19T10:29:01.130-07:00President Obama's Swatting Skills<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SjvKualnaNI/AAAAAAAAABY/1I-fPqYVmdw/s1600-h/capt.60eb4ec755424c7781a9a1426c504427.obama_dead_fly_ny141.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 182px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SjvKualnaNI/AAAAAAAAABY/1I-fPqYVmdw/s320/capt.60eb4ec755424c7781a9a1426c504427.obama_dead_fly_ny141.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349091881192483026" border="0" /></a><br />PETA condemned the action of President Obama when he swatted a fly that was bothering him while being interviewed by John Harwood of CNBC. I think this incident is really an eye opener to Obama because he is the president of the most powerful state and all his actions are being judged from what he eats to what he kills. Maybe he might also be scrutinized if he kills a bed bug or a mosquito that could bite him. It is really hard to be under the scrutiny of the public eye because even swatting an insect can be judged as a bad thing. He is after all human and his action was just a natural response from a training he got from his family on how to deal with flies in the house when he was young. They should also scrutinize the cleaning staff because if the place was cleaned well flies would not be flying around like that. I think this also sends a message that Obama is just like most common people. He sees a fly and it is bugging him incessantly and he swats it. Most people would do it. Other elite ones who never had to deal with flies or would have someone kill the flies for them would find it really yucky.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3490889933882065130.post-42766276084297386202009-06-14T21:54:00.000-07:002009-06-16T09:22:59.721-07:00MTV Movie Award 2009's Best Portion (for me)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SjfG29F0o-I/AAAAAAAAABA/e7du_qZEDSA/s1600-h/bruno.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 199px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hZBHrRtG-1k/SjfG29F0o-I/AAAAAAAAABA/e7du_qZEDSA/s320/bruno.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347961729939973090" border="0" /></a><br />The best part in the MTV Movie Awards 2009 for me was the satirical/comical portion that the host Andy Rosenberg did about action movie stars not looking or turning back when there is an explosion. They said cool guys don't turn back on an explosion. They just walk away in slow motion. Yeah its so true, why don't they look back anyways just for one look or better yet why don't they run. In shows like C.S.I. however they would really run and dock.moviereviewsbytinyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12703514792410037931noreply@blogger.com0
