Kimmy Dora: Eugene Domingo takes center stage

I promised myself to watch the movie and see how Eugene fairs as the lead actress with two characters to play at the same time. I was not disappointed but I was not really amazed either.

For starters, the storyline.
The classic archetypes were present. A clueless chimay was there, kidnappers were also there and of course, a heart attack of a beloved when when tension arises between his two loved ones occured.

Unfortunately, they had to include a song number with Kimmy and Dora singing at the end of the movie that flashed a photo of Redford White in front of my face.

Second, the script.
It was nothing special. I can't remember a special line in the movie I can keep and carry with me all throughout my existence. But I enjoyed some of them like "Ano kaya yung Ebola virus, mas malaking ipis?" or "Hindi ka bobo, slow ka lang" It might not sound funny when you read it but try watching the movie and I'm sure you will have heartburn while laughing.

Third, the direction.
Remember Agent X44 or D' Anothers. It's all the same thing from the forever mainstream movie director Joyce Bernal. She did not develop a new concept or method in the movie, it was a typical Bernal film.

The cast.
Here's something new, Eugene Domingo for the first time,playing the lead role,two times over. She plays both the twins and she rocked her first spotlight although she has to develop some aspects that will make Eugene, the star and not as Eugene, the star's sidebar gadget. She can act, that's a no brainer but she lacks comething which I am sure could be filled in anytime soon. Her 'adlibs' (by the way I saw it) were hilarious. Her natural aptitude for pun creation was evident.

The supporting actors and actresses were also good but Eugene made it possible to keep the eyes on her. The names Regine Velasquez, Ruffa Mae Quinto, Vhong Navarro or Dingdong Dantes did not come close with stealing her spotlight, Domingo kept it to herself for the movie's duration.

Verdict: Go watch the movie, its worth your 100 Pesos. Don't expect to laugh your popcorn out while watching the movie, the hearty laughter came after the viewing. When you have to remember everything that happened in the movie, you will really L-O-Loud, trust me. This is based on personal experience.

Note: For families, watch out. I considered some of the Filipino words used taboo. If your family is a great believer in (Human Reproductive) Biology and uncorrupted, do not fear, friend.

A Day With My Parents

I love it when my gene donors (parents) are around. It makes me look forward to dismissal (as if I don't everyday). Knowing that my mother and father is within a 10-kilometer radius makes me happy and more hyperactive.

This day, me and my parents are to journey through the city for food and a pair of shoes. My mother decided that the new and improved Perri Todd's diner could feed us tonight.

We ordered a giant hamburger, the ones they were famous for. One the photo above is a quarter of the original burger.Look at the size of that thing! Take into consideration that the spoon in the foreground is of the same size with your normal spoon. I finished half of the burger. I have not eaten lunch and dinner so I deserved it.

I also dared to try out the (direct quote from the waiter) "pasta in red sauce". I don't remember the name but it was Italian and it had an "r". Italian, my earwax. It tasted more like Italian sand if you ask me, but who cares, their burger rocked.

Lubricants for my gastrointestinal tract was also necessary so I had to order a drink. I chose iced tea over the bottled soft drinks. I could not handle a pH 4 stomach after the dinner.

Their iced tea was served in dippers. See the fatness of that 8-inch tumbler? But then again, I finished it all.

The next thing to do was too look for a new pair of school shoes. My old shoes gave up, suffered a small tear and it was more white than black because the leather chipped off over time.

I love buying things with my mother. She gives comments from 20 years ago. Her ideas are classic so I was pretty sure she was an expert in school shoes buying.

I had three choices: two from Hush Puppies and two from Sketcher's.

Of course, my mother was with the Hush Puppy. It looked very formal and appropriate for school but I wanted something different. I eyed on the Sketcher's while saying my goodbyes, I knew she wouldn't let me have that one and I agreed with her.

Well, it all had to come to an end. They brought me back to the dorm. I don't want to remember this part anymore.....

About Me

I am a 15-year old blogger from Iloilo City Philippines (and yes thats me in the photo, I did my best for a self portrait). I love to write about everything that draws interest. I have no particular topic and/or genre. For me, it’s all about pressing the keyboard keys.

One thing I'm genuinely proud about is being a Filipino. I am proud that my DNA structure isn't that different with Jose Rizal's or Bonifacio's. I don't dream of migration. I dream of living and dying in my country, contented with what I have done for its glory. I am a Filipino.

I hate grammar and spelling lessons. I am cursed to suck at English for life. All I can do is type and convert into concrete form my abstract thoughts about everything.

I am a high school student at the Philippine Science High School-Western Visayas. I am a government scholar but that does not mean I wear thick-framed glasses, chew braces or spit liters of saliva when I talk. I can’t even solve nth degree polynomials below a minute! I am normal only that I had a chance with the entrance exams.

I love Biology and Filipino. In my decade of schooling, I loathed Filipino. I tagged it as taboo and evil only to realize that when you can’t speak good Filipino, your spoiled tuna. What Rizal had said is true. If I continued to curse Filipino to death, I might miss a big part in my growth and development. I love Biology because every time we have a dissection, a film viewing on open heart surgeries, a blood sample to type (blood typing) I further realize what an advance organism I am. Contrary to the obvious, Biology strengthened my dwindling belief in creationism. It is far and far becoming impossible for me to believe that a human with a perfect lymphatic system or blood production mechanisms just came up by chance.

For those I blog about, do not worry. My view to you doesn’t necessarily reflect how the world sees you. I am just one of the many millions out there you are about to meet. Don’t get hurt easily. I bite but your way tough enough to handle it. As much as possible I would try to be positive and to continue living a happy life co-existing with my topics.

Why I left Wordpress

Many of you might have been readers of my blog before and you may be wondering why I transferred to Blogger. Well, its all because of the limitations my previous blog client has.

For one, the Cbox. Advanced bloggers might know that Wordpress blocks all JavaScript and that is what is used to run the Cbox. Because of the lack of a Cbox, my readers had less chance of commenting. Even I would not sign up just to give a comment on a stupid blog entry.

Second, no ads. I have no intention on living by blogging but it is a good thing if I could put up some advertisements on my blog. A small amount of money could be good and it gives a feeling of being a professional blogger.

Third, too many limitations. Every step needs an upgrade worth a big something. I just don't want being nagged of paying 14.7 credits every time I click something in the dashboard. This might be exaggeration still, exaggeration is partly true.

So those are all my reasons. I am loosing the Categories, Stats, etc. but who really cares? My choice, my bloghost.
