For the World's Greatest Mom!

World's Greatest Mom in the middle!

Mother's day is fast approaching and I'm one of the few people who panic at this time of the year. I think I worry too much about what I could give my Mom since she has been a phenomenal person throughout this handsome man's lifetime. She is the only one that can handle all my disappointing mishaps in life and still manage to put up a smile whenever I needed someone. That just cannot be handled by friends alone because I know my Mom is more than a heroine, she is the best person I know in the whole world.

We do not spend that much time nowadays because of my busy schedules and work. I make it a point she knows how important she is to me even to this day. I have a lot to thank her for and that also includes my own life. I almost died when I was born, but we both survived all the blood loss and early birth condition that came with it. I may have some parts of my brain disfigured but hey I came out better looking than expected so that's a plus!

For those of you guys that do not have anything to give their Moms on this special day, PHOTOFIDDLE.COM just announced their Mother's Day $10 gift certificate giveaway. The technically savvy Moms could now create art from any photo of their choice and put them on canvas or art prints. The mothers day gifts are available before May 4, 2009. You can get them just emailing mom@photofiddle.com. It's that easy!

Happy Mother's Day Mom!

More People Infected with SWINE FLU!

I hope there would be something that would be able to stop that influenza problem from Mexico. Imagine a couple of students were infected in Southern US because they only had a vacation in that country and now they are trying so hard to recuperate or at least survive because this deadly strain is killing them one by one. There are no vaccine or medicines created yet to battle this virus which is airborne. Now if you see the streets of Mexico, everyone is in masks but how would you be able to stop them from spreading it?!

We only have temperature detecting cameras that would be able to tell if they have fever, but a latest interview with a doctor on radio said that a single anti fever medicine would be able to put the temperature down if the drink one before they landed. Prevention must be done in the country of origin and not here, they recommended incubation periods too that is similar to SARS or bird flu when the outbreak hit the region previously.

If everyone had it, I hope the body would be able to produce enough anti bodies that would be able to eliminate this virus. Let the right people discover it so they can work on immediate cures since a lot have already died. Sickness that already has been transmitted from animals is very scary. This has mutated from the original spanish influenza. I hope the world health organization would be able resolve this.

KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS: DRAGONBALL EVOLUTION

I started being a fan of Dragonball since highschool and I have been the kind who goes through the rummages of Virra Mall to find Japanese betamax tapes that contain the actual video which is shown only in the land of the rising sun. Being a thousand miles apart of course that single copy would come in a very hefty price. I think my friends and I chipped in about 700 bucks just for it so we could be one of the few people who watched it in the Philippines at that time. Internet was not a word we knew then so don't ask me how long ago that was okay? The boom only started in the late 90's here so do the math.

This movie was a little dissapointing, it did follow some of the real good things about the actual cartoon series but most of it was really invented. We knew that it would really be something big because imagine a couple of highschool kids buying that with their lunch money right? But this movie? It was a far cry from the original. I really like the fight sequences but some of them were a little bit sloppy. The effects were nice but on some parts of it, they were a little off. It would be nicer if it had more than one city bursting into flames like in the cartoon series but I think they only sticked with one or two of them... not to mention the weird romance happening between Yamcha and Bulma. The instances where and how they met were also awful. Then when the actual movie ended, everybody was mentioning "IS THAT IT?!" like there should be something more that what it was made to look like. There were only a few people in the cinema and some kids were also noisy at the back so I did not enjoy it that much. I wonder what would the next part be like because for the time that Picollo was still alive, it looks like they wanted it to have another sequel. I don't even know if there would be one soon because I think they lost a lot of money making it. I give it 2 kumags for at least making an effort even if it seemed so dissappointing.


Ha!

The Reading Festival 2009

As the biggest music fan in my family second to my Dad, I always make it a point to go on local events that are in line with the materials I listen to. I mainly do this for leisure but on major concerts and VIP privileges that establishments sometimes give away, I do not stop at any point and go to these because I feel the need to belong to the IN crowd. How simple that may be for others is not so simple with me because I do not have much time in my hands. It would mean I would not be going back to the office at these times or over the weekend where I take my days off even if I am still in the running of company perfect attendance in my 4th straight year. That is just a remarkable feat for me but I sometimes feel so bad if there are international events that happen in the Philippines which I could not go to. They rarely go here often. These are no ordinary MTV concerts or the things we watch on the OPRAH show. Some flukes pass that club like the hoax that made raves and shows years ago.

On a positive note, people in Europe specifically those in the United Kingdom will be holding huge reading festivals to get people of the same interest all in one place. I hope somebody pays for my airfare come August because they will be holding it there. Reading Festival Tickets are selling like hotcakes. I hope by a stroke of luck or a wave of the wand of HARRY would do wonders for me so I can get in. So if anybody who wants to volunteer... Ha-ha!

Although that maybe of interest for me, I would like to be the first one to sit and watch FALL OUT BOY or THE PRODIGY come concert night. They are some of my favorite bands and I adore their music. Obviously even the clothes I'm wearing now are patterned to their styles. I hope I can get one because rumor has it that they are sold out!
