That People’s Champ’s Build

I was kinda shocked the moment I saw Manny Pacquiao on TV. That’s when he got face to face with Juan Manuel Marquez. I can’t think of a better word to describe my reaction to Pacman’s torso: Engrossed?

image from manny-pacquiao.netYeah, right. He is fit. But he was like a malnourished kid with muscles. My cousin had the same impression. I think it’s the result of losing weight to qualify in that division.

Flipping channels, I then got spoiled with Kapamilya’s breaking news of Pacman’s victory, a strategic move of the network against Kapuso. Wheew! And is effective, because I did not dare to watch the replay after that.

Anyways, my 5 peso bill to Pacman for that bloody victory.

Irreplaceable

To the left. To the left.

That goes the introduction of one of Beyonce hits, which was introduced to us by Daizuke, though indirectly, from his “divalicious” playlist in the office. Those lines, I think, is more famous than the title itself. Funny it is, some people are only caught by those lines (a case which happens to any song, especially when the title is not found in the lyrics — say, Simple Plan’s “Untitled”).

This song was featured on Studio 23’s Break the Bank as one of the questions. The given clue was IRRE______ABLE; the song was also played on the background and more clues were given by the game show host, Mo Twister. I thought it was one of the easiest question for everybody, but I was so damn wrong. Contestants answers were IRRESISTABLE and IRRESEPARABLE. How could they missed the chance for a hundred thousand pesosesoses and tickets for Beyonce’s concert! (I bet *magningning* si Daizuke for those tickets ;)) I also heard someone in the background said, “To the left”. Dang! I left the channel without knowing if somebody had figured out the title. :P

Movie Recap of the Week

No Reservations♣ Last Wednesday, me and my colleagues planned to watch Apat Dapat but we end up watching No Reservations - a story of two chefs cooking their love recipe. Nice team up, lame story.

♦ Yesterday was a holiday in observance of the end of Ramadan. A friend invited me for dinner and sleep over. We rented cd’s and she chose two suspense films, The Messengers and Saw III.

The MessengerThe Messengers is a story of “paranormal phenomena” resulting to the discovery of a murder mystery of the last occupants of the house where “the messenger” moved in. I just hated it when I easily predicted every scenes — the only thing that was horrifying with the movie.

Saw IIIGoosebumps did not easily get me during the first horror movie, but I was so engrossed with the second, Saw III. This one made me cower and gave me chill down my spine. The story, as well as the game created by the sadist Jigsaw and his puppet, was intriguing. But that did not make me stick to go on with the movie because I just could not bear the sight of deformed body being tortured to pieces. My friend and I ended the night to sleep in her room, but I insisted, I went home in spite of her protests to keep me in.

I think the two horror films triggered my hyperacidity that night I went home.

♥ Tonight, after days of planning with my friends/workmates, we finally made it to laugh our hearts out. The four of us made it a perfect time to watch “Apat Dapat, Dapat Apat: Friends 4 lyf and death“, a very hilarious, funny and corny comedy… hahaha!!!

“Anthem of His Dying Day”

A boxing match (mostly international) has grown to be more exciting and entertaining. Aside from the duel of the pair of red gloves, nationalistic pride commences every boxing event with the vocal rendition of each boxer’s national anthem, generously sung by professionals like that in a grandiose singing contest. In every tournament, the boxers are not the only people in constant training; those singers, too, rehearse and vocalize for that few minutes of international fame, and sometimes, shame.

It’s really a shame if you dont meet people’s expections because you just failed to reach the notes a fret higher (maybe because you were so shaky before the international crowd). Worse thing can happen, too, when Alzheimer’s steal your memory, resulting you to jump off to the last line of the song to end that invasion happening in your grey matter.

I think Christian Bautista, Asia’s Pop Idol, got goosebumps and was horrified after his rendition of the Philippine National Anthem at an exhibition match between Gerry Penalosa and Bernabe Concepcion. How could he have murdered the last two lines of the Lupang Hinirang? Filipinos may understand his explanations and excuses but the shame is already done. LOL! And I cant help it to LMAO.

For you, pinoys, here’s the national anthem for your review.

Britney: From Sweetie to Hottie and to Yuckie

Britney. Image from Yahoo!The comeback of Britney Spears to the music scene was a total nightmare for most of her fans; haters may find it obnoxious. If she couldn’t give a nice performance (which she is infamous of), she should not have appeared in the VMA. Or maybe, she just rendered a plain song of lullaby so everyone might fall asleep and forgot her downfall moment. Her kids can be the excuse of her new figure. But she just looks dull and unrehearsed in her performance.

I did not bother to see her entire performance because I was so nauseated at first sight with her VMA pics on Yahoo! Look at that flab! Belo and Calayan will be so happy to dispatch those fats for FREE.

Poor Britney! Well, she can always sing “Gimme More” for fan’s support. Harhar!
