Today I Am Normal

Once upon a boring evening, this was what I thought of writing. I didn’t get to complete it and I doubt that I ever will.

I will not bury myself with work. I will not meet too many people. I will stay home and rest a little, blog a little. I will just free my mind. I will not listen to rants. I will not agree to them neither. I will just be neutral and laid back. I will keep my cool. I will do it for myself and for the people who worry about me and my eye bags. I will be normal.

Keep out. You can’t enter my room. Though you don’t see walls, there is a barrier and it is called ‘Privacy’ for a reason. You do not have to mind what clothes I wear, which parties I attend or in whose company I am with. You do not have to mind me at all.

Speaking of incomplete written works, I was a bit anxious to post about another blog I started. It was a sort of literary journal I kept unnoticed for a time… for quite some time. It’s entitled with a very cheesy title Four Chapters.

Four Chapters was supposedly a book I started thinking of writing a summer or two ago. I can’t even call it a “book” because it’s not that long actually. Through time, the plot of the story has changed but the main points have remained, I guess. I always loved writing in the summer mostly because I had more time. I wanted to be a writer- but turned up as a kind of computer techie (though not the professional type). What’s funny is, when I was fifteen, I thought I’m gonna be one of the few kids who could publish a book at that age. Eventually, I didn’t finish a written work that was worth publishing (my very encouraging friend told me what I wrote was more of a “booklet” because it was too short- I’m being sarcastic here, he wasn’t encouraging at all). When I was sixteen, I thought the same thing- and still no book was done. Now I’m seventeen and the problem is, I don’t think I can do that anymore. Ha ha. Silly.

300

300 hunks Spartan warriors have captured my attention at the movie house tonight. Yes. I watched the movie. It was so cool and hot at the same time. I love the 300 men movie!

It is a story about Sparta, a city in Greece. As it is usually read in history, a comparison between Sparta and Athens often occurs. Sparta is actually more inclined to- and prepared for- wars while Athens is more on the arts and intellect. Anyway, in this movie, both cities weren’t against each other. In fact, they eventually united as one country to defeat the Persians headed by the Persian king, Xerxes, who apparently is a self-proclaimed immortal (he claims himself a god).

300 of the finest Spartan warriors versus more than a million Persian invaders plus their rather clumsy sidekick creatures ranging from orc-like characters (which looked like it was rented from Lord of the Rings) to dumbo elephants to chubby monsters (which I swear I’ve seen from Star Wars: Attack of the Clones) to rhinocerous-like animals (as if they reincarnated from Stone Age, or whichever age that was).

The effects were excellent. It looked very realistic. If I were British, I’d say it was a bloody movie, configuratively and literally. If you saw the movie too, you’ll be amazed by all the bloodshed (so it also made me remember Munich).

The queen was good. I loved the part when she stuck the sword in that traitor of a Spartan politician. When he lied, I just wanted to squeeze him into nothingness. Guess what I said out loud in the movie house when she stabbed him, “Die in hell, b*tch!”

Ultimately, the handful of soldiers did not technically win the battle but they caused an inspiration to the rest of Greece. The king was noble and appeared regal to me even without a crown.

The actors and actresses were great and talented. The direction, production and special effects were good. The similarly-titled novel on which it was based on also deserved compliments. Movie and plot info on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/300_(film)

It was really cool. Looking forward to watching An Epic Movie soon!
Have you watched it yet? What do you think of the movie or the story?

Supposedly

What is your blog supposedly about?

That is, if you’re like me who goes beyond my own rules (which is silly, by the way, I create them and break them. No, it’s not silly- it’s fun!), you must have an original reason for blogging.

So you might be wondering why my blog is entitled ‘Looking Through’…

Supposedly, I was going to blog about other blogs, random blogs around WordPress.com. But I messed up, apparently. Now, I’m talking about myself. Previously, I talked about technology and computer operating systems. And then I talked about random stuff.

I wanted to write about other blogs because I came upon this site on WordPress called bestblog and thought it wasn’t so updated (but it is now) and then brought myself to think I could do the same and do it more often than them (an overconfident hypothesis, that was).

You know how it is when you’re in adolescent stage (or when you’re a teenager), you get to think about lots of things and you get to have lots of mood swings and you get to ask a lot of questions like they were so important to the whole existence of the world. I guess that’s what happened. Once more, the great teen blogger Elaine Aquino, has screwed up her own plans!

Pink!

Not the singer. Pink, as in the color… of my blog.

“Yum (Repeat 6x)… Delisyoso!” -Dora the Explorer

Something you will see and hear on TV when you’re not in school and you’ve got nothing to do or you’re just a kid who loves Dora.

I love it though cuz it can get funny sometimes- and educational, too.

Watch it and you’ll get to hear the Map’s lyrics which is, like, “I’m the Map…” and repeat it about 21 times and then the song’s done.

Stupid Girls, not me, thank you ;)

My latest favorite song which actually has some truth in it.

I don’t consider myself one of ‘these girls.’ Although sometimes I call myself ’stupid,’ I’m not as stupid as that. I mean I wouldn’t care more over how shiny my lipgloss is while the car I’m driving hits a person (not that I know how to drive, though).

Yeah, this was sort of funny but really true. How do you call it- a satire, right? I think it is.

Ok. Lyrics…

Stupid Girls by Pink

Stupid girl, stupid girls, stupid girls
Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl

Go to Fred Segal, you’ll find them there
Laughing loud so all the little people stare
Looking for a daddy to pay for the champagne
(Drop a name)
What happened to the dreams of a girl president
She’s dancing in the video next to 50 Cent
They travel in packs of two or three
With their itsy bitsy doggies and their teeny-weeny tees
Where, oh where, have the smart people gone?
Oh where, oh where could they be?

Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl
Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl

(Break it down now)
Disease’s growing, it’s epidemic
I’m scared that there ain’t a cure
The world believes it and I’m going crazy
I cannot take any more
I’m so glad that I’ll never fit in
That will never be me
Outcasts and girls with ambition
That’s what I wanna see
Disasters all around
World despaired
Their only concern
Will they **** up my hair

Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl
Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl

[Interlude]
Oh my god you guys, I totally had more than 300 calories
That was so not sexy, no
Good one, can I borrow that?
[Vomits]
I WILL BE SKINNY

(Do ya thing, do ya thing, do ya thing)
(I like this, like this, like this)
Pretty will you **** me girl, silly as a lucky girl
Pull my head and suck it girl, stupid girl!
Pretty would you **** me girl, silly as a lucky girl
Pull my head and suck it girl, stupid girl!

Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, stupid girl!

Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl
Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, I don’t wanna be a stupid girl

I Didn’t Understand This Meme Stuff

Okay. I didn’t really understand the meme stuff and how it’s supposed to work when you’re tagged. Probably that’s the reason why I don’t tag anyone else.

Anyhow, my good friend on the blog-o-sphere, Dimaks, was talking about these secrets stuff and, though, I’m not tagged or anything, I just thought it was cool to share my own secrets which aren’t secrets anymore once I tell it but still I will.

Uh-huh. I’ve also done the not-paying-public-transpo-fare thing (not the best experience, honestly). But perhaps one of the untold secrets I can now confidently share (since it was so long ago) is that I practically burned our Brothers notebook (or was that a laptop) when I was younger. Not that I had any grudge with my ‘rents but it was more a matter of knowing the importance of plugging electrical stuff on a 110 or 220 volt socket (or whatever it’s called). I hope you understand this though. I was going to use the laptop and it had low batteries so I charged it and plugged it on the 220, when it was supposedly for the other (110). Eventually, a soft electrical blow sounded somewhere along the adapter’s fuse and there smelled a faint hint of burnt electrical wire. It didn’t spark though. From then on, ironically, I started to like computers.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7)

It’s going to be out on July 21, 2007. Amazon.com’s giving it for $18.89 instead of $34.99 for pre-orders, but that doesn’t matter. Amazon’s gonna be rich again. I can feel it in my bones. I’m quite excited of what will happen next. Theories are that the great wizard Dumbledy isn’t really dead and so and so.

Hmm… lots of stuff are gonna happen in Book 7, I suppose. Much as I’d hate to read more deaths, the title itself has the word in it so I guess everyone should just die (just kiddin).

Anyhoo, I’m crossing my fingers hoping Harry Potter won’t die because he looks cuter alive, and that Hermione won’t, too, because she’s brainy and also Ron because I’m wondering how he’d look like when he still won’t cut his hair and make it grow longer than his sister’s.

Seriously, I like the book and how Ms. J.K. Rowling’s wit surpasses my expectations.
