I don’t know what happened but I am busier now than I was last Tuesday.
I really want to be mad at certain persons right now but the reality is if you’re plans are being trashed by someone else then there was a lapse in judgement on your part that cannot be ignored. You lack a fail safe of some kind. You trusted the wrong person. You over estimated someone’s capacity for change or leadership.
You have no one else to blame but yourself.
So busy but I so fucking want to binge sense8 season 2.

This is something of a notes to friends from my generation. We can’t seem to accept how slow things can be. How slow it is to finally be good at something enough for you to enjoy it immensely. How slow it is to get to the point where you have a sliver of feeling that you are in control of your life.
I bring all of this up to say that if you’re someone who wants to make radio stories (or do any kind of creative work), you’re probably going to have a period when things might not come too easily. For some people, that’s just a year. For others, like me, it’s eight years. You might feel completely alone and lost during this period — God knows I did — and I hope it’s reassuring in some small way to hear that what you’re going through is completely normal. Most people go through it. And there are things you can do during this period of mediocrity that will get you to the next step, that will drive you toward skill and competence.

Thoughts on Sunshine (2007)
I’m declaring a temporary defeat. I suck at writing reviews. I take solace on my probably mistaken but comforting belief that the conversational and unstructured way of writing is more suited to a podcast or a conversation about a film rather than a formal review.
I’m procrastinating on watching Never Let Me Go. I still haven’t gotten over Atonement probably because it was the first time I watched a movie in Eastwood and I was practically alone in the movie house so I didn’t have to hold back the tears and the emotionalism that comes out whenever something moves me, as a side note Keira Knightly’s + british movie is slowly becoming equal to depressing for me.
Another aside I love this time of the year, award seasons is upon us and it means lots of screeners (sent to awards voters for them to see the films outside of academy/emmy/sag/golden globes showings.) This means I have True Grit 127 Hours,Never Let Me got, The Fighter (still haven’t finished this download), The Hunter and some other awards hopefuls on the to watch list.
Not really wanting to watch what would probably have my mind thinking non stop of f I decided to watch Sunshine by Danny Boyle. A film I didn’t catch when it was shown because I was graduating, getting fired from my first job , taking the EE board exams, or was in my first corporate job (I don’t remember but that was what was happening to me in 2007). I remember reading about this movie on ebert’s site and remembering how he liked it but not unequivocally.
I’d have to say that although this was pretty much classic
Closed doors windows open:: Crazy little thing called love edition
I felt a little dizzy when I got out of the house and so decided against going to Cuneta Astrodome and support the Brgy against Powerade. I wasn’t feeling well and felt studying/working would be counterproductive because I wouldn’t be able to retain what I was studying or had to redo whatever module I’d work on. Decided to check some of the movies I copied from a friends hard drive. I’ve seen probably less than a dozen thai films and most were action/action adventure films. I was slightly curious with the film recently tagalized by abs-cbn and shown probably 2 sundays ago. I really liked Crazy little thing called love. It had this honesty that worked while having a plot that consisted of mostly cliches. Shout out goes to the writer who seemed to have a great feel for straddling the line drawn by John Hughes. If I’m too say what I believed could have been done better, I’d go for removing the bits with the drama teacher, Oh how irritating the drama club advisor/english teacher was, I also have a few qualms with the ending. There is a reason that the ending of “My Sassy Girl” works (Spoilers for the said movie follows), most classic comedies won’t really work in a world where everyone has a mobile phone and there’s email, most light love stories just wouldn’t work in a world with facebook, twitter, linkedin and the like you wouldn’t have to ask if someone is single or in the case of my sassy girl, I’d bet she wouldn’t have removed the in a relationship with, there just wouldn’t be that big reveal that everything is tied up with. I just wished they put a a more subtle ending. If I wrote the ending it would have gone somewhat like this. A fashion show in New York or probably Bangkok depends. A photographer shows his credentials to security to get access to the backstage, some small talk between the guard, The guard recognizes the photographer as a former football player, wonders if he took those amazing photographs from Mt Everest(?)/Africa but enough of the negative stuff. All great love stories are dependent on longing. You cannot long for something you already have. In a way the beauty of the the story is that I’d love to include a clip but most clips are full of spoilers. ฉันรักเธอ

I keep to myself because other people can be so draining.
Software Expenses Yearly
So I can easily find it:
- 2 USD/month Google Drive -> may have to go 9.99 next year. Update got free 1 TB from google for my contributions to google maps.
- 129 PHP/month Spotify -> have to cancel this but love the listen to something whenever I want to. (Not really but the illusion is good enough)
- 99 USD/year IntelliJ -> thinking of upgrading to 199USD/year the all tools pack. Update I got an 89 USD discounted license so saved 10 USD for this year.
- 99 USD/year Office 365 or get a 349.99 per month or a 3000/year subscription if I buy a new computer.
- 30USD/month on Google Cloud Compute VMs and other services. Mainly my Cloud Windows Servers and various experiments with the Google Cloud Platform.
Audrey Hepburn would have been 83
I had a big crush on Audrey Hepburn growing up.
I saw roman holiday when I was probably 10-11 and it was love at first sight.
Roman holiday probably is still my favorite Audrey Hepburn movie.
In her memory I am watching two for the road.
