WordCamp Philippines

Date July 22, 2008

When I was blog hopping last week, I saw some of the bloggers that I regularly follow post about the 1st WordCamp Philippines. I checked on their site and saw that it was actually an event for Wordpress users and developers. Since I’m using Wordpress on my blogs, of course I was interested. Lucky for me, the event is open to all Wordpress users even to beginners like me (I think even non-users!) and most of all, it’s FREE! Thanks to the Mindanao Bloggers for creating such a wonderful event. Yay! :) So I registered, thus this post. How about you? Why don’t you join and register now? :) Kitakits to my 1st blogger event! Whoah :)

High School Musical 3 Trailer

Date July 17, 2008

Here’s a sneak peak on the upcoming 3rd installment of the highly successful Disney original movie High School Musical which will be in theaters on October 24th. Yes, you read it right, it will now play in theaters! Probably due to the fact that it will be the last hurrah for the Wildcats (and for Disney to rake in more millions) since the lead characters apparently refused to sign on for a 4th movie.

This sequel focuses on their last year in East High - seniors ball, championships, graduations, farewells, the works!

See video after the jump.

Mamma Mia! | Slipping Through My Fingers

Date July 17, 2008

I watched Mamma Mia! last Sunday with Raych. I was actually surprised when I learned that it has yet to start playing in US theaters! Anyways, the movie was superb and I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. It made me appreciate Meryl Streep more, and Amanda Seyfried was a revelation ‘coz I only knew her from being Karen Smith (”I think I have ESPN or something” girl) from Mean Girls. The story was simple but the execution was just amazing. The cast were special in their own ways, and the location was just great! I’m sure after seeing this film, a lot of people will want to see Greece.

Anyways, as this blog is entitled “Slipping Through My Fingers” - I just want to share with everyone my favorite scene in the movie : when Sophie (Amanda Seyfriend) asked her mother Donna (Meryl Streep) to give her away as she walks down the aisle on her wedding day. The song was perfect with the scene and the acting was just emotional, it literally brought me to tears! When I saw the scene on Youtube and watched it again, it still gave me goosebumps. I guess I can attribute that to the fact that I’m close to my mom and I’m the only daughter, and that scene is very relatable. :)

Watch the scene after the jump.

July 1st.

Date July 1, 2008

1st day of the 7th month, half of 2008 has already passed. Cliche as this may sound, time really flies fast. It’s mind-boggling really, ‘coz isn’t it when you spend your time in a way you don’t really want to .. time should be slowly moving? How come this time, it is fast? And whenever I look back, I always feel that nothing happened to/for me on that past half year. Geez. Time to wake up, I still have 6 more months to make a good year out of 2008. Whew. What to do, what to do ..

Sundae @ 4 monthsOn another note, it’s a mom-declared holiday today yet again. Yay! I have to bring Sundae to the vet ‘coz he’s losing teeth! I don’t know why, probably just his milk teeth changing to permanent. It’s just a concern for me ‘coz it’s kinda scary (you know how OC I can get, right?). He doesn’t seem bothered by it, which I guess is a good thing? :) And I need to find him a new groomer, one who really knows how to cut doggie hair! The previous one is not doing a good job at it, seriously.

Wow, Santini (my Macbook) is turning 1 year old in 19 days. Good thing he doesn’t look that old, he’s still white and hardware still in tip-top shape, wee! (I performed a hardware test, just now) :) Now, where did I put that AppleCare code? Hmm .. I got that last month and I’m still procrastinating on registering its code on the Apple site. Loser me.
