Meeting Gaiman...

I had 3 books signed yesterday. I was happy. he was a nice guy... and though i was sad that i won't be having dinner with him tomorrow, i'm still happy that i met him...

no i didn't really think he was like... a god (maybe? harharhar) but he is admirable. switch and i met some new friends and our old ones as well...

it's kinda cool to be in one of these events. it was fun! hmmmm... in all honesty, i guess i did a lot of things for the event day and i realized (another realization tada!) that i learned many things... or some...

1. I can say no to work... for an important event, i have the will to say no to potential money. i don't know what God was aiming at, but i think that not all opportunities to make money should be grabbed... i think he was saying that there's more to life than work, work and work... we need to do something else... and we should experience new things.

2. That i actually have money... i budget nowadays and i noticed that i keep scrimping myself from using any of my cash. i've -most of the time- been complaining that i do nothing but save and use my money to pay bills and give to my family... so i used my money to buy myself a new digi cam... yes for this event... i bought a digi cam. :) cute little thing.

3. That i'm not that tired... i just finished recording at 3am that saturday morning... and i had to wake up at 6:30am just to get to makati. ahihihihihihi...

i think i have some other things that i have done and more realization... but i'll write later. i think i'm sleepy and i want ice cream

Not Tom Cruise...

I watched War of the World with my fiance last June 29... i know this was supposed to be here a long time ago, but then my work had to be finished first... as to that i realized something which i'll log later. harharharhar...

okay... a lot of people are saying that War of the Worlds isn't such a cool or goog movie. Hmmm... for me... i think it's good. I mean, having read Wells' stuff a long time ago, it kinda blurred out of memory... but the idea of bacteria... is really cool. I mean the opening and the ending really did come together...

but it's not about that that i want to talk about. i was never a tom cruise fan... sure i watched top gun, a few good men and the firm... but honestly, in all of those movies i saw tom cruise... i mean look at dances with wolves in japan... wasn't he just tom cruise in japan?

harharhar!!! but i would say that in this movie, there was only a glimpse of tom cruise... and that was when he was doing "the run". and for me that was really good and impressive. i barely saw tom cruise in war of the worlds... the entire cast just worked together... so there... i liked the movie. it was nice and very effective.
