My Top 20 Movies of All Time!


I'm a HUGE fan of films and I've decided to share these kick-ass ones that you should see, at least, before you die. Oh okay, anytime within your lifetime. Here's my top 20 (in no particular order).

1. Bram Stoker's Dracula
No film could ever replace Nosferatu - the original vampire, except this.

2. A Clockwork Orange
How would you forget the nasty droogs? This film is one of the craziest shit I've ever seen and to my surprise, I heart it.

3. Murder in the First
I think this is the best movie that Kevin Bacon has ever been into. Scenes are very much realistic yet hard to absorb.

4. Memento
One of the movies that made me, at this point of time, think of having a short-term memory loss. Great elusive film.

5. Y Tu Mama Tambien
Never thought of how talented Mexicans are and Gael, oh Gael! This is a must-see joyride movie.

6. Goodfellas
I've always been a fan of crime films. If I could be somebody in my next life, I would want to be a girl Don or a member of powerful mobsters. Girl don eh? Haha

7. Boondock Saints (1999)
People who aren't aware of MacManus twins doesn't have a life. Not to mention my all-time LOVE, Norman Reedus who stars this indie cult classic.

8. Run Lola Run
Best indie film of all time, PERIOD.

9. American History X
Very compelling and dramatic film. This would definitely change your beliefs in life.

10. The Shawshank Redemption
This, I believe, is the way to adapt a book to screen. The movie is full of hope and lessons in life.

11. Pulp Fiction
A classic hardboiled film. Tarantino never fails to create such masterpiece.

12. Frankenstein (1994)
Played by the amazing Robert DeNiro. Though critics say it was a bad film, I personally contest. Watch it yourself then you'll know what I'm talking about.

13. Scarface
Violence and profanity? Name it. But I tell you, this is powerful and shocking that you would never imagine.

14. Into the Wild
Sean Penn directs this true to life film about Christopher McCandless, an American itinerant who died out of starvation. This was beautifully portrayed by Emile Hirsch.

15. Big Fish
This enchanting film was filled with soul which is very far from Tim Burton's bizarre creations. I'm not misleading you, no. I believe that the film itself was a package of creativity, talent and great story.

16. Synecdoche, New York
This is such a rare and desirous film I've ever seen. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone's not aware that this do exist. Before watching this, I require you to be patient and considerate. You'll be amazed in the end, promise.

17. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
How will I describe this uber cool heist film of Guy Ritchie? Hmm.

18. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Three words: Simple yet powerful. And I still can't believe I'm actually adding more words than three; but yeah, Jack Nicholson - one of the GREAT actors of all time.

19. Dog Day Out
Pretty hilarious film that would blow your head - literally and figuratively.

20. Alice in Wonderland (1951)
My all-time favorite cartoon. Never felt any boredom watching this for like gazillion times.


There. I wish I could add some more but you know me, am lazy as a cow to feed you everything. How about you? What's your fair share?

Two Fourteen


Valentine's Day. Yes, tomorrow will be but let me tell you what I know about this "special day" (for majority, I guess) or maybe not. Who cares? I wonder what made it special since everyone of us can or may give our special someone a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates almost everyday. I, myself find it ridiculous whenever I was asked who's my date on Valentine's, where to date on Valentine's, what's your present to him/her on Valentine's and everything. What I'm trying to say here and I tell you, I have nothing against Valentine's, it's just that there's nothing too extravagant to celebrate about every February 14. I do believe that one should give his/her unconditional love to someone EVERYDAY. It's all about love -- the thing that we should give everyday without any push, hesitation, or restitution.

Anyway, I have something to share for the romantics, like me out there. This came from Shakespeare's masterpiece which I think if I finished reading, I would be utterly insane. So here it goes...

To-morrow is Saint Valentine's day,
All in the morning betime,
And I a maid at your window,
To be your Valentine.
Then up he rose, and donn'd his clothes,
And dupp'd the chamber-door;
Let in the maid, that out a maid
Never departed more.

-- William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act IV, Scene 5

Now, I should stop.

Two Face


I've never been an expert on reading people but what's interesting is that whenever there's SOMEONE talking or saying bad things about me, I would know. Even if I was just quietly sitting in a corner and trying to be alone, awful things are coming and being delivered to me. Just like that, no efforts at all, which I think is good. It helps me to be more careful and warns me whom to befriend.

I was recently told by a friend that someone's backbiting me. It wasn't completely confirmed but a friend is so sure that it was me they're talking about. I clarified this by asking and I heard the same story twice. There, no doubts that this bimbo have some serious problems.

What's irritating is that I treated this asshole as a friend. I don't totally yield my trust though I found this person okay and true. Damn, I was dead wrong. This idiot's one of his co-idiots. I'm just thankful that I found out early before my awesomeness gets ruined.

Anyway, so be it. Say whatever you want to fucking say. I have nothing to do with this kind of shit. I actually pity this moron, it just made me realize what a filthy trash this douche was.

Now hypocrite, you can go to hell.

It's Just a Phase


Some are gifted, everybody's weak
Lots are brave, others are afraid
Tons of wishes, dreams disregarded
They are hallowed, we are burning
You are beautiful, I am not.


What's going on? Hmmm... yep.

Look Who's Talking


T'was a Monday morning, not a very good day for me. There I was, completely quiet, trying to stay away from everyone else except with my precious songs at the computer. Again, it's not a very good day. It was all Candy's fault. If it wasn't for her know-it-all attitude, I'll be okay. Such a trying hard bitch.

So I focused my attention to work. Tried diminishing those previous acts and let Sigur Ros and Joe Hastings rule my head. Suddenly, I received an e-mail from someone who think of himself as the most good looking person in the world, that every person even fags would drop down to their knees and suck his... whatever. Why the heck such a loser do exist? It's not really gonna be a good day, eh? His email was full of shit. I can't even understand myself why am I replying to this hideous wacko. Maybe because I want to also make fun of him then shut him out. And btw, I did.

I'm not a perfect person, I know and it doesn't mean that you have the right to accuse me or even tell me WHO I AM! If there's something you want to say, say it or might as well keep it to yourself especially if you're not part of my world. Judge me all you can but have you recently looked at yourself in the mirror? Think again manwhore!

I told you, it wasn't a very good day.
