A Saturday Well Spent?

" A Capital Bore"

Mood: Bored
Music: Glassjaw - Ape Dos Mil

Well, I guess today was an alright day, relative to the absolute boredom that has been ever-present in my life as of late. I woke up shortly after noon (that's actually pretty good these days) spending some time online dicking around, then took a shower and got dressed to bring my little brother to a play date at the Lilles' - always good fun. Though the Ayala sisters might not be around these days, I still manage to have fun over there, whether its with the adorable kids or equally adorable mother haha. I love that family. And I love that house. I mean, I guess I shouldn't fail to mention the food... and the ginourmous TV; a monstrosity so large I needed to make up an adjective for it. People who've seen it know exactly what I'm talking about.

From their house we moved on to Eastwood for bowling. YES. Bowling. I'm a horrible bowler. I had lots of fun making a fool of myself, while in the lane next to me my little brother (mind you the kids got bumpers!) officially made a mockery of my score, depressing. But good fun nonetheless. And I dedicated all my strikes to you nikkiepooop :) My mom showed up with Bianca, my little sister later on, and after summore bowling and some pizza, we all moved on to pool, which is thankfully much more my element, at least compared to bowling, and I felt vindicated, albeit however slight.

The adults (me, my mom, tita cecille and tito rob) + my sister decided to watch a movie after ditching the kids.(sending them home, ok... we're not that mean) My mom was set on The Phantom of the Opera, and since she was paying, I didn't complain. I remember liking the musical the few times I saw it, so what the hell I thought, whatever. Damn, I should have known better. Not only is the musical phenomenally better, the movie drags to kingdom come and offers second rate soundtrack and vocal work. (which features experiments with some odd new age synergy that left me going "this is killing the fucking musical") I think the only thing that made it worthwhile was the really hot chick who played the main part and the occasional artistic shot or above-par cinamatography. Notice, I said occasional. And I think the sound in the theatre was much too loud. Whatever the case, the movie left my ear drums hurting, my consciousness desperately needing a nap, and my soul utterly depressed - but I'm subjective to any movie with love and romance in the plot these days, on top of my already overly romantic tendencies. So shoot me. Bianca freaked out, it was definitely not her movie... age appropriate? I think not. Mother should have known better, but oh well. I'm sure bibinka would have much preferred staying at home watching wrestling or simple plan videos on MTV.

But, I'm not really complaining. I got out of the house today. Yay! I saw people other than my immediate family today. Yay! I saw civilization and a movie, in a mall! WOW! Progress, not perfection we say. Until next time, cheers.
