These blog entries are MOSTLY just how I felt after watching the play, musical, concert or TV show, a product I like or things I have read. If I have not at least one good thing to say, then you wouldn't see anything written about it here. Oh, btw, I would seldom(not never) write about blockbusters even if I love them starting today(26 June 2019) just because. :-)

If you have been reading my stuff I guess you would know by now how much I love watching movies with horses. Whether it's about Zorro, The Lone Ranger, Flicka or whatever movies or TV shows with equines with it, I usually love it, with some exceptions, of course. If you're wondering if I'm an equestrienne, I am far from it. I have no form whatsoever when riding, and the last time I rode was ages ago, so it's not because I could relate to it, but because horses are beautiful creatures, and I love watching them.
Add to that the presence of Dean Cain as Cathy's dad. As I've mentioned before, I had an unhealthy crush on Dean Cain when he was Clark Kent/Superman. Thank goodness, I'm way past that foolishness already, and my crushes with people from showbiz or any industry are now just very, very, very harmless.
Horse Camp hits a lot of soft spots and pulls a lot of heartstrings. Sometimes we get what we wish for, but we forget who helped us achieve that wish.
During my Freshman Year in High School there was this girl who was the heiress of a province based bus line who was very nice to me. We really hit it off, but when the people who mattered started noticing me, I dropped her like a hot potato. The following year, she was nowhere to be found. I wonder if I had anything to do with it. I hope not.
Cathy(Jordan Trovillion) hated the way she looks. Her self-esteem was down to drain too many seasons ago. Sometimes she feels invisible even to her parents because they argue in front of her as if she weren't there.
Her parents are just over protective, that's all. Thankfully, they allowed her to join the Horse Camp at The Black River Farm and Ranch.
In the camp she meets Liza(Rachel Sowers), a girl who has all the aspects of a true best friend. She helped boost her self esteem by teaching her how to apply the proper makeup to enhance her beauty, giving her pep talks, and she even purchased new tops for her. The problem is, when she finally got noticed, she became even meaner than the meanest girl in camp, even dropping like a hot potato the best friend anyone would wish for.
No matter how idealistic you are, and even if you were brought up right, sometimes, when you get what you wish for, you forget how got it in the first place. You start forgetting what matters then start becoming an airhead, even if you promised the universe that you'd never be like that.
The Black River Farm and Ranch is a real place where little girls and teenagers have the best summer of their lives. If I knew about this back then, I would have nudged my Dada to let me enjoy my summer then. I probably would have been an equestrienne, yada, yada, yada. This story may be true or not, but it is very relatable.
You might say the story is a bit cliché-ish, but hey, if people could relate to Sci-fi and fantasy flicks, then one could relate to stories like this one.
From Pep.ph Sigh. I have separation anxiety #sepanx with this series that I have grown to love. It had its off days, but MOST of the time, the scenes are exciting, putting me to the edge of my seat, giving me cheap thrills, or making me laugh. There are times when I get traumatized by a scene or two, that I have to play the piano first before doing my research or anything else...or for me to have happy thoughts before sleeping. That's how effective the script and execution are. Or else, why should it be so real to me when I know that it is only a work of fiction? It's not really advisable for people who have PTSD to watch this, according to my friends who tried watching this, but couldn't because it was so convincing that they had to undergo cleansing rituals so-to-speak before becoming OK. If the very supposedly harmless COCOON could do that to people with mental health issues, then I guess something like this that is so...

source Elzar "Dodjie" Simon is not really a stranger to me. He was my brother's boss in ATI, and he was one of the many invited guests who was able to celebrate with us during my brother and sister-in-law's wedding in 1998. My brother only has praises for him. I was excited to meet him again last 14 July 2016, but it coincided with CURTAINS UP , so I just joined my family in Spirit. A.I. HACKED The book has been receiving rave reviews ever since it was launched so when I saw on the author's FB page that he was having a book signing event at Fully Booked's The Studio at 11th Street, BGC, I was psyched. A few days after I learned about it my brother announced that we were going, and he has already ordered one paperback and one hardbound. I thought one was mine, but it turned out it was for my dad, but it's OK. My parents live with me, and my dad read books one-by-one, and now he is still reading my former Pastor(Richard Mirpuri)'s Glimp...
