Trivia Nights 10.27.2022

 

Tonight was my first time to join this event. The theme was all about horror and everything spooky. It was really fun. We almost made it to top 3. It was only a point difference with the third rank. Bawi na lang next week. Also, we got a consolation prize for our pajama costume.

Don't Worry Darling (2022)

 

This movie was on my list. Obviously, because it starred the one and only Harry Styles. 

A little back story. Harry was not my bias when he was in One Direction. I only started becoming his fan when he released the album, Fine Line. That album was really good. Then followed another superb album, Harry's House. You would not skip a track in Harry's House.  He is a great singer. 

And a great actor, as well, when you get to watch his performance in this movie. I messaged my friend to watch this movie with me. She's that friend who loves these kinds of films. So, that I have someone to discuss with. 

Overall a 7/10 rating.  

I feel so empty these days. 

I know that there a lot of things I should be grateful for. My parents are constantly reminding me to be thankful for all the blessings I have received. They don't want me complaining about my work and all that's negative about it; telling me that the struggles are part of life.

Nowadays, I just take it one day at a time. I pray to the Lord every morning that He may let me survive that day. Start and finish the day without any problems. So far, so good. It's all a routine. That's what's wrong about it. I don't get excited about anything, anymore. I don't look forward to special days anymore. It's really frustrating. 

Also, I feel like I'm losing people. They are starting to feel detached one by one. I have to accept this, I know, but it is really hard. I have reached a certain point that I questioned myself - What's wrong with me?, Why am I losing these connections?. 

I am struggling, really. 

These thoughts are keeping me awake at night.  

The Sandman

 

I loved the first season of this series. It was well thought of.  From the concepts, to the lines, to the cinematography, and everything else were really good. 

I am looking forward to the next season. I hope the sequel will be even better than the previous one. :)

Super Show 9 Manila 08.06.2022

Yes, I was there. I got to see them in person, performing live. The one group that got me into kpop, my forever love, Super Junior. As an elf of 15 years, it was a dream come true as this was my FIRST EVER Super Show. 

I had mixed feelings about how the events turned out. An announcement, a night before the actual concert came. It was devastating news. The father of Eunhyuk suddenly passed away. He was not able to fly to the Philippines to join the others. Hours before the actual concert, the promoter announced that the members discussed until the wee hours of the morning to cancel the concert, as they could not proceed with the performances thinking that one member recently lost a family member. Despite the concert cancelation, they still met the fans who came to the venue. They still managed to sing 3 songs. 

I had mixed emotions during the short fan meet. I was holding my tears when every member greeted the fans and apologized for the cancelation. It was devastating to see them shed tears. The people that always bring you smiles were crying right in front of you. But at the same time, I was over the moon. I cannot believe that they were right on stage performing. The group that I supported for the past 15 years was singing live and I was their to witness it. Wow. Just wow. 

And let us not forget. I was able to see in flesh my ultimate bias. Lee Donghae. He was unreal. He is just too good looking. Wow. I was really happy. 

They promised to be back. To greet the fans with smiles and to perform their hearts out soon. I will be there to witness it and happily wave my SuJu bong. Fighting SuJu!
