Rurouni Kenshin Live Action Movie

The much anticipated Rurouni Kenshin movie made its way to Philippines theaters on December 5, 2012. Thousands of fans have already been waiting for this to finally happen as the screening date constantly got pushed to later dates for months. And damn, it was worth the wait.

Being a Samurai X fan since high school, the movie was like a dream come true. Every detail of the movie feels like it was freshly grabbed right from the anime itself. No fan will be disappointed with the movie since you will not be expecting any mistakes that Hollywood usually makes with their own rendition of popular animes/games.

The actors were able to relive their characters the way we watched it in the series. Actor Takeru Sato was surely perfect for the role. From being the bloodthirsty Battousai the Slasher to the kind and sweet wanderer Kenshin Himura, he totally nailed it.

The DVD becomes available on December 26th. So if you haven't watched the movie yet (you can catch it on SM Cinemas til the 19th), be sure to watch it right away! Or, get the DVD at least. ;)

Daniel Radcliffe Turns 23

This is not my work but something I found on one of the Harry Potter pages on Facebook. :)

Then and Now

I'm the type of person who doesn't necessarily pay attention to my looks, even though I do indulge in makeup. It's probably just another channel where I can express my love for the arts, coloring my face? lol. I also don't think that I'm beautiful. I never do. Acceptable? Yes. Beautiful? No. But I thought of seriously losing some weight mainly because of health reasons. I'm now 25 and I don't want to suffer from any obese-related health condition so early in life. So it was 80% health concern and 20% my-clothes-won't-fit-anymore that I tried slimming down. And I was able to achieve good results.

Finally Got My Pottermore Email

After several weeks of waiting, I finally got my third letter from Pottermore. The one stating that my account is finally ready and I can enter the site. Pottermore is set to open to all on October but there are a few who can enter it earlier during the beta phase.




I quickly logged in and explored the site. There are still a lot of changes to be done. I also took part in making a few suggestions, some already voiced out by other students.

Chapter to chapter I viewed all the stories and awesome artworks, when finally I got to the sorting hat. I was excited and nervous as to where the hat will put me. I have been believing I'm in Gryffindor for 10 years. So here I was, answering all the questions truthfully and the results came out. RAVENCLAW!
I was lost for words! Why oh why did I got sorted to Ravenclaw? The house where they say only the wittiest and brightest witches and wizards come from. Shocked, I continued anyway. If the sorting hat put me there, then I just let it be.

I explored further and began practicing on potions and spells. They weren't that easy haha. Anyways, Pottermore is a great site but I know it'll be greater when it opens in October. ;)

My Last Harry Potter Movie Experience

I'm not gonna lie, I'm actually in tears writing this blog post. Did I just watch the movie now? No. In fact, I've watched it the other night. As to why I'm still soaked in tears, that, I cannot fully explain but it has something to do with the music during the epilogue scene in the movie.
