Most Loved this Apreel

I only have 5 favorites to talk about and it's all something you can watch on the internet hence the title. He he

Sense8 on Netflix. This. show. has. everything. It revolves around 8 strangers from different parts of the world, mentally and emotionally connected to one another. What I love about it is that it highlights the diversity of culture, religion, sexuality, politics and so much more. And if you have been sticking around here long enough, then you probably already guessed that there are action scenes in this series because you know that I am a sucker for that.

July Favorites

Website:
Go Book Yourself. If you're looking for more books to read, I suggest you this website, which basically gives you a good variety of book recommendations.

Pic Monkey. It's an online photo editing site. I stumbled upon this website while looking for something that could help me create a collage for my Pittsburgh trip. It's free and you don't need to sign up!

Film:
Starting Over Again. It's a movie from the Philippines, starring Piolo Pascual and Toni Gonzaga. I judge Pinoy movies based on their trailers and if I like them, sure, I'll watch it. And this movie right here, I knew that I wanted to watch it as soon as I saw the trailer from one of the movie dates that Tom and I had. Unfortunately, the movie came out a week after I left the Philippines, so I had to wait for the digital copy to come out. More on the movie, it reminded me of 500 Days of Summer, one of my favorite movies of all time, because it's a story about love but not exactly a love story. Filipino or not, I highly recommend this movie. It made me laugh and cry!

The Raid 2. If you're into action like me, this movie is for you. If not, then your father, brother, boyfriend or best bud might appreciate this movie like I did! It's the second instalment for The Raid Redemption. It has exceptional hand to hand combats, blood and more blood than the first movie. Believe me, it is really great. Watch out for the fight scene in the kitchen!

Music:
I can't pick one song! Each song came from different genres that made it hard for me to pick.

Valentine by Lotte Mullan that brings you back into the old times! I love listening to synthpop. I find it really relaxing and chill. Having a mix sang by James Vincent McMorrow makes it even more appealing.  I can't remember when I first heard this song but I only found out the title last week! The music video, lyrics and everything about it is A+! Book: The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield.  Mystery novel. Vividly written. It was almost as if I'm being taken into another world with each word. Twice when I shook the book out of disbelief! This novel was made into a British drama film. It was okay. The actresses were lovely! If I'm not mistaken, a girl from Game of Thrones portrayed one of the main characters of the book. Beauty: Revlon Magic De-crease Eyelid Primer. It leaves a light tint and sometimes I'd wear it as it is. It does the work for holding that eye makeup! Essie - Sand Tropez. I wore this twice last month. It's beige but when I go color blind I see it as lavender. Lol

Divergent

Divergent is currently rolling its credits as I am typing this! The movie was good but not that great. I used to watch Shailene Woodley in The Secret Life of an American Teenager and her acting was kind of bad that I stopped watching it. It's great to know that she has improved her acting! Lol. Listen to me and my criticism!

I wish I could have seen more of Maggie Q! Though I didn't read the book so I have no idea if her character exposure was really just that. I have no intentions of reading the book because Divergent simply did not top The Hunger Games for me. I think I'm also done with dystopian novels for now. If you have read the novel, how did you find it? Should I read it?

Movie Rating: 7 of 10

Anyway, Divergent and Transcendence are now available in digital HD! Grab a copy now? Haha

So I just saw Friends with Kids and this is what I thought...

I hate the guy for taking a fucking long time to realize what he ACTUALLY feels for the woman. I hate the woman for succumbing. to his great words and shit. I mean seriouslyyyyy. She looked like she was blinded by this idea of him being great and all that without realizing that he's an actual prick.

My Sunday in bullets

• Started my day early.
• Headed to NAIA Terminal 3 to meet up with a family friend from Saudi before they leave Manila.
• I arrived early so I spent my time watching people and doodling.
• The traveler's lost faces!
• Got a new camera. Yay! It's a Canon 1100D.
• Farewell, old Canon S51S! You have served me well. :)
• Bounced back home. Just in time for lunch.
• Headed to the church. Listened to the mass.
• It saddens me when people cross from place to place like there is no mass going on. In front of the altar pa. You guys can pass from the back naman diba? That is just impolite.
• Off to the cinema to watch Transformers: Dark of the Moon
• Hands down the best movie of 2011 so far! It was worth the butt ache!
• Bought a couple of things from Etude and Bench
• Went home, checked out the new shirts mom got me and finished my homework on MS!

Test shots.

I want a car like this!

The obligatory mirror shots.

The facial foams I bought from Etude.

The yellow one has Vit C which is good for oily skin like mine and the blue-violet one is good for relieving stress (daw) which contains antioxidants. I only purchased it because I know that July and August will be a stressing month. Hope it does magic? Haha

This one really works well on my skin! It blends really well. It smells good. It stays long and it isn't bulky like the other pressed powder from Etude.

I got this one for free. It's a box full of facial cottons. Haha

New shirts all the way from Saudi!

I had siopao for late dinner!

Btw, congratulations to the Azkals! I wore blue for support? Haha! It was a coincidence but yeah... go Philippines!!

500 Days of Summer

You know what sucks? Realizing that everything you believed in is complete and utter bullshit.

So I've been feeling "broken" within the past four days. Maybe it was because of the gloomy weather or maybe just the fact that I miss that certain person.

Imagine this... Michelle wakes up in the morning, fixes her bed, goes to the comfort room, does some routine work out, eats breakfast, goes back to the room, goes on the laptop, shuts the laptop down, picks up her iPod and earphones, listens to The Script, lies down in bed, stares at the ceiling, think about life, looks out the window and watch as the rain dramatically falls.

I also rewatched 500 Days of Summer twice this weekend. I love this movie.

I feel you Tom Hansen. *insert broken heart here*
