Beerkwatro, the Matrix Revo and FPJ

-----

Ha! Finally I got my copy of Beerkwatro (the 5th book of Locally renowed cartoonist: Lyndon G.) [naKs hanep sa spiel ah...hmmm...Maybe I could get a free copy when b5 comes around...he he he]... I bought my copy from the National Bookstore at SM Manila, thanks to the loan that I get from Pag-Ibig... I manage to have enough cash to buy some of my luxuries :) .... Anyway.... My girlfriend ask me if we could eat at Tokyo-Tokyo just beside the bookstore, even thou im not found of Japanese Foods, I give in... at Wow pare... punong puno yung store...bakit naman kasi ke liit liit ng pwesto..(parang kwan ng Hapon... he he he) anyway, I told my GF that because it is her idea to eat there, she wil be the one to fall in line as I reserve seat (the soonest that there would be an available set)... and as I diligently reserving our seats, I take the opportunity to browse on my new B4... I notice that there is something strange the way they packed that book... parang ayaw mag pa bukas?!?
after turning two to three pages, i realize that it will be better to read it in a more private place, cuz i can't help laughing out loud already after those pages...My GF ordered Porkchop sumo (tama ba yun?) for our dinner, i somewhat enjoy it... but the rice is not that appealing :)

After eating at Tokyo-Tokyo, we proceed to watch the Matrix (wow pare..ngaun lang...eh ngaun lang nagkapera eh saka wala namang pasok kinabukasan dahil sa Ramadan) even thou im not a fanatic of this triology, i would still like to see for my self stories how great the fight scenes are... (parang sina Gokou at Freeza yung laban, yung sapakan sa ere at balibag sa pader at buildings) but somehow, is still think that the 1st one is still better, interms of story and plot... but anyway, im in no position to critize it cuz i watch it only for that time, and as a broadcasting student, we are made to be infrom that before you could actually understand a film and be able to critize it effectively, you need to watch it more than 4 times. Thus, if you are planning to watch a film and then a friend of you stated that it is not good, unless he is a memeber of the MTRCB, or a Film specialist or at least a Broadcasting practioner with masteral degree, his view is as good as the usual taxi drivers of the Manila Streets :)

I just learned today that FPJ declared his bid for Presidency... (busy ako sa kaka suddenstrike eh). and already, the reactions of various groups are evident, the Mass rejoiced (and so i was told) the educated frown (mostly people from the commercial districts and people that has no real life but infront of their PC's) The chruch shrugs and the students declared an empending doom to the country in the upcoming election, knowing that FPJ would surely win these CirCus.
Back when i was in college and Erap bid for presidency, i told my self that it will be the end of this country, i mean he was known as an idiot, a womanizer and a drunk (in which i guess its true cuz Erap is very much vocal about it) and he win and still the country is intact, yes we witness various happenings like the WAR at Mindanao, scams here and there, the overthrowing of Gordon and such and of course the impeachment and the People Power second Edition... but the thing is, does it really matter if Erap never won that election, will the country will still be enjoying the 40 pesos into a dollar ratio? i mean look, Erap is long gone from the presidency, but still GMA did very little in restoring the peso from its dwindling rate... thus i there for conclude that, it doesnt matter who would win these upcoming election, but the thing is, we really need to get our acts together, these reminder have been repeated so many times that it would rival the number of the stars in our Galaxy...but the thing it, listening was never a trait of the Filipino (well listening about good heed and plea of changes for that matter).. mind you that im not supporter of FPJ nor ERap, but i would be damn if i would be introduced as a supporter of GMA and co. My point is FPJ/ Glorai/ Roco or Ping, who among them win the election, it doesnt matter, as long as we remain the same selfish/ unmanageable/ and arrogant people as we are, these country is far for being progressive -

"Hindi naman si FPJ and magpapatakbo ng Bansa eh, si Angara pa din at Tito sotto, sya lang yung kukuha ng boto" - Overheard from a Drunk Tricycle driver near our Hangout
