PILI PELIKULA: Crazy Rich Asians

Crazy Rich Asians is by far the craziest feel-good movie of 2018. All aspects of the film were perfectly well-thought of and all elements blended well with each other, too. Knowing that there are hundreds of existing racial discriminations and Asian stereotypes all over the world, especially in the US,  I knew beforehand that it was gonna be hard to pull off. But darn it, the author and other storytellers of CRA sure do know how to prove people wrong. But before anything else, I want to discuss the film's technical elements in detail: TRAILER CRA trailer led me to have crazy expectations that I seriously doubted they could not uphold. but boi was I wrong?  It was produced in America so it was understandably fast-paced and playful, which I'd like to believe was the reason why it attracted so many people. I mean, it did, for me at least. CINEMATOGRAPHY Visuals. Visuals. Visuals! It's the first thing I notice. Now I know that some films don't require a big ass b

Underrated Music Playlist

There are millions of great music from different artists and genres. Granted that everyone has a different taste when it comes to music, there are still many great songs that have remained so underrated that most of them don't even appear on Spotify or Apple music. Now, I know what you're thinking, these songs are probably by unknown artists. You're not wrong, what I am about to list down may have been written by artists you've never heard before. But there will be some that are written and performed by popular artists today. Before I gave you the list, I  just want to share why I thought about blogging about this. You see, right now, I'm at work and had just finished my day's quota. I was searching on Apple music for some old songs that I loved listening to growing up and I got extremely disappointed not finding a thing. I ended up listening on Youtube using my work PC instead. Anyway, without further ado here's my  Underrated Music Playlist . (p.s. mos

50 Never Have I Ever (Rated PG)

I've been thinking about how I can post at least one blog in a week again without running out of topics. So I thought to just keep things simple one week at a time. For today, I will share 50 things that I have never done in no particular order. I've always find this game amusing and I know I'm not the only one who runs out of things to say during the game, so I hope this helps/ although since this will publicly posted and I'm not sure who'll be reading this, I will keep it as clean as I could. Note that some may make my life seem boring (because that point in my life actually existed), and some are actually just a part of my bucketlist. NEVER HAVE I EVER... 1. Watched a horror film inside a theater. 2. Shopped for make-up. 3. Went surfing. 4. Went hiking. 5. Eaten sushi. 6. Had my own room. 7. Had a pet cat. 8.Went skydiving. 9. Been outside Asia. 10. Went scuba diving. 11. Kissed the opposite gender. 12. Shoplifted. 13. Been arrested. 14. Snoope

Home

I'm home! I never really left, but for the first time in a long time, I was reminded again of how it felt like to be home. I still remember the first time we had a real physical encounter. It was one of those days when I didn't know why I was there but I was. She was beautiful and we had a great time, me, her and a few other people. I would've "made a move" if I hadn't embarrassed myself by getting way too drunk, but then again, I have always been a believer of timing, and I know that whatever happened, happened for a reason. After a year, I purposely made our paths cross again not knowing where it would lead me. The timing? It was perfect because after many years I finally got rid of all my baggage from my past. It was that point in my life where I knew I've truly moved on from every bit of pain. I learned how to accept myself better, I realized my actual worth and I've finally convinced myself that I deserved more than what I had to go throug
