Last Sunday, I bought another set of VCD’s after watching 300. I didn’t browsed long enough at the video store so I just picked out random videos ^_^
Sorry about the screenie, its a little dull 
Army of Darkness – the first time I’ve watched this is when I was still in elementary. I can still remember the funny antics of the ‘small men’ while ‘torturing’ the hero. It was a mistake buying this, since my cousin already have this one. But nevertheless it’s a fine addition to my collection.
Independence Day – one of my barkada showed up after a few minutes while I was browsing VCD’s and the first thing I said to him, “Sa tingin mo ano mas maganda ito or yung Armageddon?”. He answered without hesitation, “Independence Day”. It was one of his favorite movies, also if I remember correctly we watched this at the mall with our other barkada’s and we were like standing there the whole time. The theater was packed; it was full of people from all ages.
The Notebook – one of my friend told me that this movie have a good storyline. Well, most people I encountered said almost the same thing. I don’t really like drama, but this one I’ve got to see.
Just Like Heaven – another romantic comedy movie. I’ve watched this one at the mall with my girlfriend at that time.
Lizzie McGuire – another movie from Hilary Duff =)
Armageddon – another ‘catastrophic’ movie. This is one is a good movie by the way, with action scenes that can leave you breathless while watching.

Since the advent of call centers here in the Philippines, which was around early 2k, more and more people started working on graveyard shift. Since clients are on the other side of the world, we have to adjust to their time schedule. The popularity of call centers, plus their high-income opportunity, has attracted more of the working class to shift jobs. As more people sacrificed their day jobs for night shifts, major cities in Metro Manila are now “alive” at night. The year I graduated college, was the peak of call center recruitments. I never did take jobs that require night shift, its not that I don’t want to, but my body could not handle it. But why did I accept this job here at onegcc, even if I knew in the first place that my shift would include graveyard schedules. Many reasons comes to mind; (1) I just like to try it out for a change, (2) I’m was bored at my former work, (3) to expand my experiences and learn new things, (4) I want to leave my former work so that in time, I hope, I will forget that person most important to me but will never be mine, and (5) some other reasons I’ve already forgotten.
People work because they need to (to support their families) or they want to (because its their passion). I work because I’m just bored at home, and so that I would like time to pass quickly. I’m waiting for someone or something to happen whichever comes first. At least when I go to work, my mind is busy on something else and not on something that would bother me. At home I’m always alone, well I’m always alone since I was born. I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, except my half ones. That’s why I’m always outside, with my peers, with my barkadas, anything to make me busy, anything to forget what I don’t want to remember.

I feel really tired today, it seems that I’m loosing my energy. I didn’t get enough sleep yesterday morning after I got home. I slept past 8 am then woke up around 2 or 3pm. I tried to go back to sleep that afternoon but to no avail. The air was cool coming from the window, my bed was comfortable enough, and there is very little noise from outside. But still I can’t sleep, I don’t know, maybe I haven’t adjusted yet for my night shift this week. I just lied there on my bed, forcing myself to sleep, but there’s something bothering me. There’s something I kept on thinking that whole day. It was her, this girl I kept on thinking about her. I don’t know why, but it seems she lingers on my mind. Although not everyday, but mostly after I wake up in the morning. Damn, I have to think of something else as soon as I wake up.
Hmmm… maybe I just missed having a girlfriend. I missed having someone to talk to while going to the mall or watching a movie. I missed someone whom I can hug when I sleep at night or when I wake up in the morning. Until now, I’m still thinking if I made the right decision. But it was destined to happen, even if I did make the decision. Our choices, even if we change them because of our free will, have already been decided even before we make our decision. Whatever was meant to happen, will eventually happen.
Anyway, I’d better cut this short. The sun is already rising and I’m about to leave the office. Oh and the girl I mentioned on the first paragraph is not my ex, she’s someone I just met late last year.

I went to the mall again today. I went there just to buy a pre-paid card for my globe number. I didn’t leave just yet after that, I strolled around for a few minutes. I hate going to malls on weekends coz there are so many people. Yeah you know I hate crowds, but what can I do, I really have to buy that pre-paid card. I was also planning to watch a movie today, but as I looked around the cinema, there was nothing worth watching this week. Instead I went to the department store I bought a couple of VCD’s to add to my ever growing collection. I don’t know why, but I recently started buying “original” VCD’s every week. My “usual” routine every Saturday (or Sunday) was to go to the mall, buy VCD’s and a take-out from my favorite resto, KFC. Then go back home, watch a movie while eating hotshots, chicken burger, fries, and any other available meal from KFC. Today I got to buy a couple of videos; the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Serendipity, X-Men The Last Stand, Raise Your Voice, and Devil’s Advocate. I’ve already watched all of this, most at the movie theater.Here is a picture of the VCD’s taken using my webcam (and another excuse to show Belldandy again in my blog).
Why these titles?
Lord of the Rings trilogy: well I want to watch an adventure movie today, so this is on my list.
Serendipity: I like the story of this romantic comedy about chance and destiny.
X-Men: The Last Stand: Finally I have completed all “Marvel Comics” movies to date.
Raise Your Voice: I’m having second thoughts before I actually picked this up on the rack at the mall. I like the story a little bit, or maybe because this reminds me of my ex (she likes Hilary Duff, I actually downloaded the movie Cadet Kelly for her because it was the second movie of Hilary and was never sold here in the Philippines).
Devil’s Advocate: I just like the story and because I watched Sweet November yesterday and it reminds me of the team up between Keanu Reeves & Charlize Theron (I find her cute BTW ^_^).
Till here… I’m gonna watch another movie again before I sleep.
Tagging: Erika (hamster hime) ^_^

Surfing the net when there’s nothing to do may sometimes lead to something wonderful. And most of the time, you might discover something worth, well… discovering. As I was strolling along the information super highway. I came across a GIF animation that can be compared to a flash animation for its smooth movements. This dancing girl, which I found somewhere on the net, is one of those animations I like the most.
This image is transparent but I’ve used a white background because the edges can be seen if I use any other color. This is just a small image 88×120 (289kb) so your looking twice the size of the actual image.
This animation also came from an unknown source. It has a size of 120×120 (292kb), and has been resized to match the height of the animation above.
If anybody knows where I can get more animations like these, please message me. ^_^
I’m tagging Sarah hime just to keep my head on my shoulders.
