Danabelle in Body Shorts

"Sana ako na lang... Sana ako na lang ulit."

"She had me at my worst, you had me at my best... At binalewala mo lang yun."

Sooo... I was finally able to see this movie. YES, bakya ako. Nanonood ako ng sappy Filipino movies. Bawal?

Anyway, I was hella excited to see this, 'cause a couple of friends had said that it was good.

...And it was ok. I cried. (But that's not really worth much, 'cause I cry at everything anyway.) Buuuttt... For a Filo film, it was pretty ok.

Hindi lang talaga ako maka-relate.

I mean, in movies, I usually find myself totally in there... Not only because I'm a frustrated actress, but also because I'm hella dramatic in real life... But in this one, I just couldn't see me.

I think it's because the lead character wanted to find herself, because she feels that she's lost herself to her partner...

...And I have already found myself, and when I do happen to fall in love, I don't mind losing myself to the person that I have fallen in love with.

And usually, when I break up with someone there's that finality that goes along with it. Because I know that if we ever did hook up again, the reason we broke up would keep coming up still.

Tsaka, kung mahal, mahal! Kung hindi, eh di hindi. Lichi. Kinokomplika pa eh.

This morning, I had an epiphany. I was waiting for a taxi for like the longest time. And I realized that waiting for a taxi is like waiting for the right person to come along...

You keep hailing them to stop and it's always, "Oops. There's already someone in there. Wait for the next one." or "Oops. Doesn't want anymore passengers." or "Oops. Doesn't have a license plate to operate in your location." or "Whoops. Overloaded. Next." or the list goes on and on and sometimes, no taxis pass by at all... And the longer you wait, the more jaded you feel. But you know what, when the next taxi comes, the one that you hail and will stop and take you in, you'll feel this fantastic relief and and you'll say, "Finally. Thank you, Lord."

And you'd have been more thankful than if you had gotten another taxi earlier.

Of course, you've yet to know whether the taxi that stopped will be able to take you to your destination, but if it doesn't, then you can just get down, compose yourself, and hail another one.

Uber sappy, I know. FORGIVE ME, the Filo movie gave me a hangover.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Speaking of watching... I started watching Heroes. And ooh, I doth think that an addiction hath cometh on.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Oooh! Oooh! I've come up with this fantastic new story. Actually, I've been toying with that story for the longest time, say like 4 years? But I never really thought of translating it into a screenplay, because it was too personal. Anyway, I'm thinking of doing that. Keyword there is THINKING. Because I still haven't even finished the screenplay for that indie film that we were supposed to have been doing like right now.

Tsk. Hayyysss.

The Photographist Project has been in hibernation for a very very very long time.

Are y'all still interested in waking this group up? If you are and if you have the time ('cause I don't.), please send me a message and let's try to work something up. We need new admins to keep the group running. And until then, no new themes yet.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Sooo... I've been toying with the idea of getting a new body. Is it a good thing or am I just being Little Miss Wanty Wanter again? My D40 is going to be a year old in July. I have no plans of giving it up, I just think that a second body would be useful. Like a D80 (I hate you, Ivy. LOL. Joke lang. Thanks for letting me try it.) or a D300 (Why must you be so pretty?). On the other hand, I could just get a new laftaf instead (Mansanas?).

What do y'all think?

Tsk.

Nevermind. I feel like such a brat. Nag-guilty tuloy ako. Masyado akong maraming gusto. Lichi.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Speaking of wanting things... I have a couple of ghetto projects in the works. :)

1. Portable Ring Flash v1.1 and v.2
2. Softbox
3. Ringlight v.2 teh GINORMOUS version
4. Creative Aperture Filter (This is like taking forever. Anuvey?)
5. Built-in Flash Diffuser (I have this funky idea, that I haven't tested yet... But it's bound to be interesting.)
