Ogie Alcasid's 30th Anniversary in the Entertainment Industry(and it's a birthday concert too).

Image
OGIE ALCASID'S 30th Anniversary Concert If I am not mistaken I learned about this concert around July, but we had lots of activities.  I could have ordered the tickets online, but based on experience, since it's my account, the senior discount would be waived.  It was a matter of principle.  When we got to SM Makati to purchase the tickets the best tickets we could get was Patron A.  Oops.  Well, we still had good seats, and we listened to the lady who suggested that we should get the ones near the aisle because it would be more convenient for my mom. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 My mom and I were psyched to go to this concert together because mom was one of the first persons who bought Ogie's first single when he was just  a cohost of Eat Bulaga, which was still showing at RPN 9 at Broadcast City then.  Unfortunately, due to the infection of her allergies and aching feet she couldn't join me, so we  prayed...oh yes we did...after some reflection, we...

This is a poster for Till I Met You. The poster art copyright is believed to belong to the distributor of the film, GMA Films VIVA Films, the publisher of the film or the graphic artist. Directed by Mark A. Reyes Story by Annette Gozon-Abrogar Screenplay by Benedict Mique  Till I Met You(TIMY) is a movie I have seen for a total of eight times since it was shown in 2006.  I remember it well.  I watched it first on October 15.  It was one of the movies I watched with my movie buddy, RJ, who is now in heaven.  It was a Sunday then and we watched it at Festival Supermall.   It's a movie that gave me a light feeling.  It sort of reminded me of the Sheryl Cruz and Cesar Montano starrer called GANITO BA ANG UMIBIG?(1990), but the story is totally different.   Why did it remind me of it?  Well, I can't totally figure it out, but I guess I know why. ;-) TIMY is very amusing and endearing.  It also had so many ex...

Watching PANGARAP KO'Y IBIGIN KA again and again and again (2003)

Image
( source ) This is one of my favourite movies of all time.  I think I've seen this movie about twelve times or more.  It was June 2003 the first time I've seen this, and each time I watch this is like the first time. The casting is perfect and even if there are ads in the movie, they are done in good taste(present tense intentional). It has some funny moments and there are lots of endearing scenes.  Based on the flashbacks, there were scenes of Raffy and Alex's togetherness or bonding that weren't shown during the first part of the movie, meaning their intimacy was not really in an instant like most viewers perceived it to be.  Well, even without those flashbacks, it wasn't really in an instant, but it was sort of like whirlwind kind of thing. Chona and Boyet had some great intimate moments here...oops, I mean, Alex and Raffy.  They both kiss well and the audience could feel the intensity of their emotions. Back at Alex's homestead,  I loved...

Bernal Director #DivineIntervention This is a movie I watched a total of three times, and I would probably watch it again. Why?  There are many reasons.  One of them is because  I am my daddy's girl.  Since he is not in the best of health,  and I know I am just counting the days when the inevitable would happen,  the scenes betwe...
