The other day, while I had a casual chat with one of my dear friends, I told her that my C-drama era is done. I unsubscribed from Youku, iQiyi, and WeTV.
Well, this morning, while I was casually browsing Facebook for updates from friends and family, a random post appeared, and I found myself checking WeTV again, and I am back to where I was before. 😄No shame there. hahaha.

This is what I'm doing. Spending a huge amount of time streaming on Netflix, YouTube, and other streaming apps on my tablet or laptop. Here are some of the movies/TV series I watch.
I'm looking forward to this month's lineup on Netflix. Hoping that I can also squeeze in 3 or 4 books in between so I can finish my reading goal this year, this month.
I didn't know this movie existed until YouTube suggested it. The trailer looks interesting. Most of the reviews and comments about it were sad. That the movie was heartbreaking and the twist shouldn't happen. The viewers shed tons of tears while watching it. That got me curious, so, I asked hubby if we can watch it together last night.
The movie is about Emma and Dexter and their lifelong friendship and everything in between. It's beautiful and heartwarming. It reminds me of hubby and our lifelong journey apart and together, but despite of that, I didn't shed a single tear while watching it. Why? Because that's how life supposed to be in real life.
It gives you a thousand chances and two choices to pick. It lets you meet people at a certain time and take it away just like that. It gives you time to move on and continue to live on. If you are lucky, Life will let you experience the most heart-stopping moment. That One day, you meet the one. That one chance you didn't see it coming. That one moment when you give in to life uncertainty.
Death for me is not the end of everything. I didn't see it that way instead, I look at it in a very positive way. Her life ended so that he could continue living the way Emma wanted for him for so long. To live the length and width of his life just like what his father did for the past 10 years after Dexter's mom passed away.
The ending is perfect for me. It gives you a glimpse of how it started. It lets you go back and forth and connect each moment together, In the end, I don't feel lonely or sad. It made me feel thankful. The movie reminds me to find strength in the happy moments of our lives.
If you love to see people die, buildings collapse, water flood cities and volcanoes erupt, then you'll love this movie. The special effects will blow your mind, but at the end of the movie or maybe halfway through it, you might ask yourself, is that really possible? I mean, could someone really survive a never-ending catastrophe in the blink of time? I don't think so. What this movie lacks is a compelling plot and interesting characters.
After watching Manny Pacquiao win the so-called “Dream Match” hubby and I headed to Glorietta to buy our new toy and watch quarantine. Quarantine is a remake of the Spanish horror film REC
The story revolves around a television reporter, Angela Vidal, and her cameraman Scott Percival. They are making a documentary about the night shift at a Los Angeles fire station. The firehouse receives a call from an apartment building about a woman who is screaming. Angela and Scott join the fire-fighting team on what looks like a routine call-out, then find herself and her cameraman trapped inside a quarantined building with some frightened residents.
The film is shot in a documentary style (a la the Blair witch project) makes the camera constantly moving and it’s a bit irritating. Half the movie I feel lost because it confuses me who is chasing who.
At the end of the movie, there’s an explanation about what is happening, and no matter how hard I opened my eyes to understand what the cameraman is showing, I can’t see it. Thanks to Google for the explanation.
This is our first time watching a horror movie together and I must say that both of us (especially me were really frightened) because of the claustrophobic tension and the sudden eruption of violence making it a white-knuckle ride. Quarantine is not for the fainted heart. It is scary and full of surprises. I’m glad I don’t have a heart problem or else something might have happened to me. And if you brave enough, you can play the game
While typing this blog entry I'm watching Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Arch I had to watch the old Indy films to see the difference. This is my first Indy Movie. Me and Hubby watched this movie yesterday and I'm very disappointed. I don't get this movie from beginning to end. I was there sitting while eating my burger and fries staring at the screen trying my very best to figure out what the movie was all about. 15 minutes of watching made me feel sleepy and that's a bad sign for me. The film is not entertaining enough to make me awake. According to my hubby, the first 3 movies are about history and myth. This movie is about Myth and Alien. My golly!!! Alien!!! Every time I think of this movie I think of aliens. A very bad combination for me. In the end, this movie is not worth my money. Too many loopholes that I can't ignore.
I just finished watching Music and Lyrics, and I fell in love with the movie. Hugh Grant (Alex Fletcher) is so charming when he plays the piano, and Drew Barrymore (Sophie Fisher) is so adorable. I really love it when she giggles and smiles. She has such a cute face.
