LUCKY ME!!

Anong Gagawin mo para makakain ng Lucky Me?
Child 1: "Ililigpit ko po ang toys ko tsaka...sarili ko po"
Child 2: "Sasabihin ko kay mommmy, 'Ang ganda-ganda mo'"
Child 3: "I'll be a good citizen, of the Philippines!"

This is an excerpt from the really funny commercial of Lucky Me!. This Brand has always promoted the funnier and happier side of life. Lately their commercial promotes family unity which promotes good values to kids. I think we should have more commercials like these, which promote being good kids or people. The more commercials this kind of values, I think we would have a different Philippines. Kid's should believe in something that is right and true instead of seeing shows or commercials that promote wrong things.

AKF- Animal Kingdom Foundation

One of the websites that appeal to my pet lovers side is this website. It is a foundation dedicated to the care of local askals who were captured by those who want to cook dogs. The government takes care of the raids while the dogs go here.

This was started by Charles Wartenburg who's dog is also an askal who won many awards abroad. The center is based in Capas, Tarlac where the dogs are fed, washed, vaccinated and taken care of.

This is the website where they post their dogs which are up for adoption for only 500 pesos. I certainly love this idea of a foundation and would gladly support it any day.

Death Note

I discovered this anime show (originally a manga, made into a show then made into a movie) on YouTube. Many people liked it for its story and characters. Our main character is named Light and he is the villain in the movie. He picks up the Death Note where any person you write down there will die. He started using that power to kill all criminals in the world. The police started hunting for him which led to other deaths. In the end the top secret detective was the one assigned to catch him. That was "L".

This very horror like show has many mythical and fictional parts in it. The story is really very good and it makes you want to keep on watching. This is one of the best anime shows i've watched. Athough it starts to get dragging later on the show is still really interesting and always has a dark twist.

FATBOY SLIM--WEAPON OF CHOICE

I have no idea as to why the video's wont upload to my blog but I have decided to just put a link.

This is one of my top 5 favorite music videos ever made. The fact that they were able to hire Christopher Walken as their main guy in the whole video is amazing. His funny antics in the video keep me and my brothers laughing all the time. I like the fact that Christopher Walken looks the same in the start and in the end of the movie. The set is actually like a hotel that is really big. The flying scenes are also very fun to watch, especially the diving part. I hope you enjoy the video!

Greys Anatomy Soundtrack

I loved the series and I love even more the soundtrack. WIth songs like:
1. Song Beneath the Song - Maria Taylor
2.Naked as We Came - Iron and Wine
3. Far Away Blues - Joe Purdy
4. There's a Girl - The Ditty Bops
5. Catch my Disease - Ben Lee
6. The Fear You Wont Fall - Josh Radin
7. Portions for Foxes - Rilo Kiley
8. Wait - Get Set Go
9. Not Going anywhere - Keren Ann
10. Such Great Heights - The Postal Service
11. Where Does the Good Go - Tegan & Sara
12. How to Save a Life - The Fray
13. Ruby Blue- Roisin Murphy

I loved everyone of the songs. They were relaxing and exciting in a way. I liked Ruby Blue by Roisin Murphy best, it was very upbeat and fun to listen to. The music (as studied in class) makes Greys Anatomy so much better and more fun to watch. This is one of the best compilations i have heard so far. I would recommend anyone to listen to it. If I had money, I would give people copies of this album, its really that good.
I applaud the person who picked and scored this TV show. It's really fun to hear good music while watching a good TV show. I believe that somehow one persons taste in music reflects her whole lifestyle.

MANNY PACQUIAO and ERIC MORALES

This commercial was very funny. I liked it because I find it

very interesting

that San Miguel Beer spent so much on this commercial. For one they have Manny Pacquiao, Coach Roach and Erik Morales. Not to mention the 50 extra's and the cars. I liked the commercial because it showed that kind of business friendship between Manny and Eric. This commercial is certainly worth its money due to the many viewers who eyes turned into saucers when they saw this commercial. I find it a very well made and well thought of commercial.

About A Boy

This movie is such a funny movie based on the book by Nick Hornby and it makes me laugh everytime at what Will Freeman (Hugh Grant) does. Its a comedy drama whose main character is a hip Londoner in his thirties who doesnt do anything in particular. He realizes one day that all of his friends are married which leaves him all alone. With that idea stuck in his head he tries to meet a lot of women, invents an imaginary son, and starts attending single parenting meetings.

Because of all this he ends up meeting Marcus (Nicholas Hoult) who is an odd 12 year old boy. They eventually become friends and in turn Will teaches Marcus how to be a cool kid while Marcus teaches Will how to finally act like a grown-up.
\

In the end you find yourself enjoying every moment of the movie and especially the key scene where Marcus sings in front of the school. You also get to understand the problems of people who are not like yourself and who try everyday to find a reason to keep going on.

This movie was excellently played by Hugh Grant and by Nicholas Hoult who both embodied their characters and the personalities. The story was a very good one, it had its own shares of laughter and of tears. Throughout the movie you felt different emotions like fear, excitement, happiness, and sadness. It is a must watch for me.

The Little Prince

I borrowed this old movie from my tita. I heard people talk about it and they didnt like it very much, they liked the book a lot better. I myself read the book back when I was Grade 2 and I dont remember it much so I cant compare a lot.

In totality I enjoyed the movie. It was very heartwarming to see a child actor act very natural on screen at an age like that. His character played a very honest and curious boy who was looking for understanding. His stories and outlook on life were very different from anyone else in the universe and I guess its his way of thinking that hits us in our hearts. If everyone could think his way I guess the world will be much simpler and better. The author, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, i guess is truly a child at heart for him to think of such a story and such a character. I applaud also the acting of Gene Wilder and Frederick Loewe since they portrayed their characters really well.
