screw the status quo. we need change and we need it now. we need not a leader who plays with words and public funds. we need not a leader whose years of service fall under the 'fiction' category. we definitely need not a leader who knows nothing. we require a leader who has conviction, who has the guts to change the seemingly unchangeable. we need... to prepare for 2007. Now.

real

I just hate it when people doubt my existence. Why, people? Am I just too good to be real?

"Ikaw ba talaga yan?"

"Totoo bang ikaw si Katie?"

"How would I know if you're the one who's in the blog?"

I don't need to prove myself. For those who'd send me a message (through Yahoo! Messenger, Friendster or email), if you're up to the challenge of proving whether or not I exist, then go take your questions with you and get a life!

GRRR.

you gotta accept it...you've reached celebrity status. :P ...Forgive the guys and gals, they probably think you broke the mold. speaking of celebrities, how and where can someone issue a challenge to our movie makers? I still watch pinoy movies not because of the actors or (ackkkk) the storyline (bleech), but to see "home" in action. Half-way across the world, a displaced pinoy can't help but miss home despite the situation in politics, economy, etc. Can't someone or a group even try to produce movies with depth and substance. Heck, some group produced "Batibot" which is a good start...but c'mon give me something else other than teen-love, oppressed OFWs, supernatural folk heroes, action movies with unlimited ammo... writers need to start a new myth - one that would shape the minds of people, one that would give lead them to be insipired to aspire after their dreams, one that would make people believe in heroes again, heroes with integrity, honor, and values. can someone give us this?

Let's just hope the next Okay Ka, Fairy ko movie would meet our standards. :)

Believe it or not, I do remember that show (from a long, long time ago in a land far, far away). I had big crushes each on the leading ladies for that show. Sadly, now that I am older, there were many a show that I have watched in my youth that had very little substance. The movies of late that I have developed great appreciation are Bend it Like Beckham and The Terminal - two not-so-crazily budgeted movies with substance and depth. Please give me something that I can take with me home from the movie theatres. Lessons, experiences that can lead a person to greater inner discovery and better regard towards oneself and others.

8mm (Nick Cage) was a disturbing movie. Grabe heavy scenes and theme. The worst part was a passing reference about the Philippines...
