I need to be more careful next time

I'm now counting my blog posts that I left without titles. So far I have 2 now, and both of them emerged title-less unintentionally.

Well even the second one, my take on a book I've read, was not even supposed to be posted yet. I intended to save it as a draft, but it turned out to be published.  And I realized it just today.

Score one for the noob bloggeer.

 Aside from that, I need to be more careful on my lone Manila ventures at night. I have been walking more around Manila at night and it has been treating me kindly lately, but you'll never know when you'll meet that one person who will ruin that perception. 

Randomly tonight, I visited the henna stand in Adriatico where Pat, Joseph, and I went on Pat's birthday to be inked. A weak-one-to-last-for-two-weeks kind of ink. I went there to get my two stars fixed because they needed reshading and another little brother.

Two-week, weak ink

People there were nice. They have a shop in Vito Cruz where you can get a henna, tattoo, or even go get pierced. I was invited to get a tat or get something pierced, but those aren't really for me now. Or will be. Or IDK. Too bad though that I wasn't able to take pictures with them. They really are nice people. Well, I got the number of the artist just in case we have an event in the campus to invite them. 

Something tells me I'll be meeting them guys again soon. 

Photographs

Some have babies in it.

Some have dogs.

Some make you remember that cool movie you've watched.

Or that last turbo dinner you had before going home

That you were busy that one night

...even thought it's PRTSC and was totally taken just for this post.

Some photographs signal beginnings, those that make you think of what's going to happen next.

And will happen soon.

Dimension frustration

3D has been the biggest revelation to the movie industry so far. More than well-built plot, interesting characters, and skillful cinematography, moviegoers also take account of the experience they have when watching movies. It's like dining in a fancy restaurant. Aside from exquisite meals and variety of drinks they have to offer, they also sell the ambiance that comes with the package every time diners go to them to eat. It's the same bananas with watching movies: 3D facilitates the creation of your unique experience contributing to the overall feel of the film.

More than facilitation though, some movies are just pleasing to the eyes.

A friend and I watched Resident Evil:Afterlife in 3D at Midtown last night. Judging the previous installments' content and the game-turned-movie nature of the film, we were more excited on the experience rather than substance. 

Meh.

 We actually drank coffee first before entering the movie house for better effect (my idea, of course).But the outcome was far too mediocre to talk about. It's not purely the fault of the film itself though. Somehow Midtown cinema (which I love) contributed to the bad effect of the film. The projection was relatively dim, 3D glasses are quite loose and rather uncomfortable wearing, floor lights are incredibly bright, and buckets of free popcorn were too small.

Well, the latter is not really a part of my ranting. They're so tiny it's actually kinda cute somehow.

We're so tiny we're gonna die

Still, it's a good way of spending an early evening. Making fun of a crappy film is always entertaining.
