couple of things
There are two things I am raving about. First is the movie Knocked Up and the other is the show Man vs Wild.
I saw Knocked Up with Zy and Meg at Third Street Promenade. I've been hearing a lot of good stuff about this movie so I was excited to see it. This movie was from the writer and director of the 40 Year Old Virgin. Since I liked that movie, there was a good chance that I will also like this movie. And I did! It was freakin' hilarious! I liked the Debbie character (Katherine Heigl's sister in the movie) because she's always insulting her husband.
Favorite line from the movie was when they were searching for the best Ob-Gyn. They were having a check-up and the woman doctor said, "Ooooops. Thats not your va***a, that's your a**hole." She said it calmy and with a smile! It was so funny!
Man vs Wild is an awesome show on the Discovery Channel. I just started to watch this show because of its endless commercial for the new season. They had a marathon the past couple of days and I was able to watch a few episodes. This show is great because it teaches people how to survive in different situations such as being stranded in the French Alps, the Moab Desert in Utah, the Sierra Nevada, in the Alaskan Mountains, in a Pacific Island, Florida Everglades and others. Bear Grylls, the host, have eaten a lot of disgusting stuff but I guess you cannot be picky if you're trying to survive. He has eaten a live snake and a live frog, maggots from a dead deer, raw and live fish as well as raw meat from a dead zebra! He even drank the liquid that he squeezed from elephant dung! How amazing is that! He's my hero! If I was in one of those situations, I'd die immediately! I would not last a couple of days!
By the way, we saw Hilary Swank at Third Street! She was with a guy, probably her bf. We were inside a store when I saw her walk past carrying a few shopping bags. We were gonna follow her but we lost her on the crosswalk. We only got to follow her probably a good minute.

Number Twenty-three
Okay, it's already my birthday. How time flies! I feel that I'm still a teenager. Or maybe I just want to escape the responsibilities and problems of adulthood although that's inevitable especially here in America.
Since it is my birthday, it made me take a closer at what's been new in my life since last year. Well... nothing at all! How pathetic is that?! I've known the same people, did the same things. Didn't meet anyone new that's memorable and nothing happened that's out of the ordinary.
What's my wish for my birthday? Hmmm... I don't know, maybe to be happy with my life. I sorta feel empty inside. I always try to distract myself so I don't feel depressed. Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. It's a wonder I still have my sanity.
I don't know but it's just hard for me to make new friends. It's not that I hate people, it just that I don't like some of them and I'm scared. I would like to have more friends but I guess it's fine being a loner. It has been working the past four years that I've been living here.
My friend from work told me that I should put myself more out there, make new friends. But I just can't do it. Maybe this is what I really am. Sometimes I wonder if I'll be alone when I get old. I'm not scared to be alone actually, it's just that it's sad. I'm used to doing things by myself. I've gone to the movies by myself, no one drops me off and picks me up from the airport, I've dined out by myself, hell... I even went to the zoo and a couple of museums by myself. I don't mind doing stuff alone but it would have been waaayyy... better if I could share it with people.
On a lighter note, I saw this movie, the number 23 with Jim Carey a few months back. Since I'm 23 years old, I wonder what other numbers in my life are 23? It's really hard to come up with 23! Bday? No. Phone? No. Student number? No. SS numuber? No. The only thing I can think of is my house number, 3720-> 3*7+2=23! I really thought hard for that one!
Hey, my birthday next year is friday the 13th! Cool!

after 7 years
After seven years, nagkita na rin kami ni Meg nung Monday. Taga-Northern Califonia kasi sya at kalilipat lang nya dito sa SoCal dahil sa trabaho at mag-ga-graduate studies sya sa UCLA. Di pa sila nagkikita ni Zyra though kasi may trabaho sila pareho. Maybe this coming weekend.
Kapapanood lang namin ni Zyra ng Pirates III at ang masasabi ko lang ay, ang haba ng movie! Sobra! I was so bored and didn't pay much attention to some parts of the film. There was a lot of unnecessary scenes. I would have liked the movie more if it was shorter, like 2 hours instead of almost 3 hours!
Madalas na kaming nagkikita ni Zy ngayon, di tulad nung my school ako. Kasi lagi akong bored sa bahay so pumupunta ako kina Zy once a week para maglaro ng tennis. Nag-i-improve na kami ngayon ni Zy! Humahaba na ang rallies namin!
