The Fuel Shower

Well, I've done my first ever Solo on the 16th of November. I hope it is not clashing with one of your birthdays, 'cause it's my memorable date now, not yours!

Haha, anyway, RP-C8837 was just okay. I used to be very familiar with that particular aircraft but as I explore the others, I deviate my love to them too... However, the most important thing is that I've done my part. Thanks Captain Louie! So, why wasn't I dressed up properly? They performed the Mixture Ceremony! There were two buckets of liquid, one with all the dirty stuff and the other with clean water. The first one was filled with Aviation Fuel! AvGas! Argh, it burnt my whole body, badly! Oh, did I mention everyone spitted in it? Fuck, that was gross!

Many were there, the foreigners, Batch 6 and friends from the outside world. I felt so sorry that I've completely forgotten to text Batch 6 and that they had to find it out from the others... Consequence of it, no landing videos... They said my third landing was flawless! I do think that it was by far my best landing. I'm flattered! I tell you, history will repeat itself!

I LOVE TODAY!

Madagascar : Escape 2 Africa

Just watched Madagascar : Escape 2 Africa with Ibrahim, Sonali and Jeffrey. Well, I have to say, the movie is expectedly good, as in nicely animated and no lame jokes.

We laughed all the way from the beginning to the end of the movie and were still laughing! Luckily, it's not disappointing and we didn't regret watching it.

You guys should give it a try and let me tell you, it's not childish. No dumb people would make a million-dollar movie just to earn kids' money. Think.

Make It Happen

I've watched Make it Happen today and I think it's pretty good, well at least, it's not boring. Dream of a small-town girl and self discovery are some of the main messages delivered from the movie.
Although not a very inspirational movie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead proves she's a very versatile actress. I personally never knew she could dance until I watched this movie! Now, it's your turn. Make it happen!

Tourism and Terrorism

Joke of the day.

Ibrahim, the Omani told me that one of his friends, let's call him X, was planning to go to the States (or other country, I can't remember) for leisure purposes. Since it was his first flight to the States, he was very excited at the same time, very nervous. X's brother told him that when filling up the white card or being asked for the reason of entering the country, write or say "tourism."

The reason for all these hassle is mainly because of the 911 case and since he's an Arab, he has to be worried. Some of his friends were stopped from entering the country of visit and some, being sent home.

So, days before his flight, he kept reminding himself of what his brother told him.

"Tourism... tourism... toorism... torrism... terrism... terrosm..." and on the day of his flight, he was not surprised being asked by the immigration officers of his intentions. But... because of all the reminders and memorizations, he nervously said "Terrorism."

Voila, there you go. He was detained for many, many hours then. Maybe 24 hours, maybe 36 or even 48.

As soon as he was released, he fucked that trip and left for Malaysia. Hehee, just for laughs!

Quantum of Solace

Phew, finally... finally the crappy internet connection is back...

Anyway, I get to watch the Quantum of Solace with Sonali and Ibrahim on the day it was released here in the Philippines.

It is pretty obvious many people in the world agreed that it is one of the must-watch movie of the year, and since the trailer was made very attractively, its success in luring the movie-goers is undeniable.

No matter how many bad critics I've heard before watching the movie, I will not stop myself from watching it. It is the movie everyone talks about and the only way for me to find the truth behind the critics is to watch it myself.

I think I would rate this movie 007/010. Beginning and the ending of the movie are great, really. But the middle part was a little into the sleepy-mode. Maybe it's just the three of us, maybe it's the whole cinema, maybe half the globe, I don't know.

I can't say it is a bad movie but given a chance, I wouldn't watch it. Still, it is however, a Bond movie. Go ahead, give it a try. Who know you might like it!

House Bunny

Finally had the time to go and watch the House Bunny. Not bad actually. Considering it's a comedy, Anna Faris did a pretty good job as a cliché, typical dumb blonde. Way to go, Anna!

"Eyes make up is important. They are like nipples on the face."

Tropic Thunder

"TROPIC BLUNDER"

Not exactly a must-watch. I know, I know, with Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr. and Tom Cruise, how could this movie be a "not exactly a must-watch" right?

Right. Trailer is good. Movie is okay. Plot is just so-so.

This comedy is not even funny! Trust me... Anyway, you could just go and give it a try, and prove me wrong. I don't mind actually. Go, go ahead.

By the way, what was in Stiller's mind? Trying to at least get nominated for Oscar with this movie?
