Talk ‘n Text (TNT) Champion Sim

Talk ‘n Text (TNT) Champion Sim


Thanks to my friend Kevintot. I got my new TNT sim and I’ve been using this for a month guesstimate. Again? I have tons of sim cards even if I only have a lone cellphone. This is the best sim for me so far since TNT is much more flexible compared to other sim cards.  Some may offer the cheapest text or call rate but TNT has the cheapest all network coverage and you’d probably have greater contacts here.

I don’t know where this one is originally marketed. All I knew is that there’s a booth that sells sim cards in some schools once a year. Even then, I failed to buy. Stocks depleted fast and I can’t seem to catch them.

Miracle in Cell No. 7 (Movie Review)

source

-Korean Film
-Drama Comedy
-Child Friendly

I should be glad that we had watch this movie together, but there are instances that words reach me like this might never happen again in the future. That part spoils. Null and void.

This is an intense movie. I initially thought this is pure comedy. I felt the drama even in the first few minutes. The impact is even greater if I don’t have prior knowledge about what the movie is, like what happened when I watched the movie Sky of Love. I rarely watch trailers too. I just watched this one as requested and recommended. I never know the folly.

I like the mixture of comedy and love story when it comes to movies. There are other horror movies combined with comedy that we are familiar too. But this one? This is drama and comedy, with tiny flecks of suspense. This is the first great drama comedy I've ever seen and is very well made. I can’t remember watching other movies with this kind of genre. The main actor and the child actress are very effective. Bigay todo yung child actress. The way the child act is beyond convincing.

Ugly Flower From Philippines

Ugly Flower

Amorphophallus Paeoniifolius
These flowers are found in our own backyard. I thought this is just some specie or family of Rafflesia. Searching around Google, this might be what they call “Corpse Flower”. However, if you will use this term in Google Images, what you’ll find mostly is pictures of Rafflesia and Titan Arum.

I’ve seen real Rafflesia in our own backyard before; say I’m just a young teenage high school back then. I remember it smells bad if you are foolish enough to go near and sniff/smell it. We tend to put garbage for burning and bury some of our dead dogs in the place where our Rafflesia once bloomed.

I have seen different weird plants around our backyard even before and we had some humongous ube buried somewhere. But they seldom make halayang ube :( I even tasted some yellowish root crop that was cleaned thoroughly to be edible. I remember feeling dizzy tasting just a teaspoon of it.

This one is huge that I thought it could be one of the biggest flower too, or maybe the ugliest. It is called Elephant Yam and is a food crop in some countries. Through browsing different site, I found out that this is the same plant I have seen ages ago. Only it was not the flower I saw but the stem of it that looks so bizarre. I was even scared of it, it looks primitive and out of place. Bf said that they have this kind of flower in their place too. Experts went searching in their mountains expecting that it was a Rafflesia only to conclude after that it was some kind of gabi.

The stem can be eaten if properly cooked (it can cause itchiness) and was said could be a last resort for food.

Superman vs. the Elite (Movie Review)

Superman vs. the Elite (Movie Review)


-Cartoon
-Child Friendly
-Action
-With Moral Lesson

I wasn't expecting I would like this movie. I was just clicking somewhere and just trying to have a glimpse but I end up watching the whole movie. The Red Dawn and superman was just a recommendation anyway by a guy acquaintance. This is the guy’s sort of favorite movies, I know.

The best thing about this is that the language is very easy to understand even with the absence of a subtitle. Plus it has a unique moral lesson compared to some cartoons that don't even have a moral lesson in it, just pure entertainment.

Recommend?
Yes

My Rate:
3.5/5


Quotes from Superman
:

"I am not anyone’s judge and jury, definitely not an executioner. My power doesn’t put me above the law."

"I don't believe that the world is broken. Because when we save the world we are really talking about people. That's always been my belief that people at the core are good. The grace of mankind is everywhere you just have to open your eyes. Humanity has a limitless potential for good. My purpose is to help people reach that potential."

Red Dawn (Movie Review)

Red Dawn (Movie Review)


-Action
-Child friendly

It's a cool movie for me and I happened to like it before its unsatisfying end. I watched it with a subtitle anyway. As usual, the supporting actor died like some old action stories. I wonder if Matt suits as a replacement to his brother. He doesn’t seem a leader material and he doesn't exude a charm for me. Somehow this is too mild for a war and it's somehow unrealistic. I picture a war to be brutal especially in this millennium. Peeta, from the movie “Hunger Games”, is one of the casts here.

I just have some questions:
1. What happened to the shop owner after the incident where they save her?
2. How efficient enough for Matt to become the next trainer/leader?
3. Why didn't they just removed the tracker in the guy's body so they won't end up leaving someone behind, is that what team does? Why didn't they ask for some medical help or say like they kidnapped some doctor especially that they have killed the magistrate already?
4. How did one of those marine soldier died? I haven't seen a gun shot.

I wish that there's a cleverer and unique way of ending this story. The war isn't even over yet.
