I still can't get over the fact that I spent P335 plus dinner to watch a Joshlia movie. I should've bought that extra shirt on sale at Forme. I blame it on the Rico-Claudine comparison and my Rico heart had hopes.

So back to this 2hour regret that I cannot take back. Aside from the lopsided script and unrealistic time element, it was just a closure for both parties done for the big screen. It again subtly and subconsciously suggested that cheating is okay. And that Joshua Garcia is now big enough to do love scenes and show his chest again and again, sometimes for no apparent reason.

Slow motions can also emphasize dimples and hair flips aside from lengthening nonsense clips, including stopping midway at airports and having small waves.

So anyway, that's it. Got my closure too by posting this. So don't be like me who goes out of the moviehouse clouded with disappointment and unhappiness.

And oh, Rico Yan is still dead. So is his love team with Claudine. So is my teenager heart.

Ara's Movie Rating: 3 (Skip it, guys! Wait for it at Netflix or any streaming tools if you are curious)

13 Life Lessons I Learned from Itaewon Class

All these community quarantine extensions has compelled me to finally give in to watching K-Drama series on Netflix. My brother (among all people) recommended Itaewon Class for me to watch. It took a lot of self-convincing as I wasn’t a fan of what they did to my oppa, Park Seo-Joon’s hair in this series. Yes, I admit I was low-key pre-judging the series based on the hairstyles. Sue me. Add alt text But anyway, one episode led to another and before I knew it, I graduated with flying colors watching Itaewon Class (see what I did there?). I finished the series in less than a week, sacrificing hours of sleep as Park Saeroyi left me feeling vengeful, worried, perplexed and hopeful after every episode so yes, it got me hooked. Here are some lessons I have learned from this K-drama and if you have not watched this, it is highly recommended and be assured that the hair concerns will eventually fade away as you get attached to its characters. Be warned, though, that there may be some ...

The Story about the Pink Sheep

I would like to tell you a story. It’s about a pink sheep. Imagine a very vast, green and lush field among mountains and trees and it’s full of a large flock of sheep. It was handled by a Shepherd who knows each and every one of his sheep. It was a great field to live in, with just a little rule: to stay in the field and hear and follow the shepherd's voice when he calls and to not go astray. So, again, we go back to the field. There are sheep which are grazing near the brook and those that are running with their small feet. There are those resting near the shades of trees. Some are black, some are white, but there’s one who is pink. She seems vibrant, happy, unique and full of life, trying to mingle with other sheep. But somehow, this pink sheep pushes some away, and even kick with her little legs the ones who would dare go near her. Some sheep would raise their eyebrows and say, “ That sheep is so weird. Why is she the only one who’s pink? She just wants attentio...

I found myself quite frustrated with this movie, as my first attempt to watch it was thwarted by fully booked schedules! It's truly something to be proud of to see such demand for a Filipino film, wouldn't you agree? The movie delves into the theme of second chances (and who doesn't like the allure of second chances?)—not just in love but in life as well. Similar to its predecessor, it highlights the sacrifices we make for our dreams while exploring the delicate balance between ambition and relationships. It also sheds light on the immigrant experience and cultural identity, adding layers of relatability, especially for overseas Filipino workers. In its most poignant moments, Direk Cathy captures the emotional essence of the film, illustrating the struggles of two weary souls who feel overwhelmed by the emotional toll of their failing relationship. Maka relate jud mga OFW ani and any couple who has been through so much in life and how they would navigate it when the...
