American Horror Story: Hotel's Main Title Sequence

I (do) watch American Horror Story, but not a fanatic.

Based on the main title sequence, and in terms of theme, it is darker than the previous instalments.

And here's the video of the main title sequence, of the aforementioned TV show/series.

"Brave New World" / "Odessa" (Heroes Reborn episodes)

I do admit that I watched the first four (4) seasons of Heroes. With the no-commercial break for the 11 AM slot in JackTV, I watched the aforementioned slot.

I got confused the first few scenes of the “Brave New World.” “Brave New World” is the pilot/first/1st episode of the miniseries. The second/2nd episode is “Odessa”.

For me, it didn’t reveal much of the abilities of some of the characters.

The first and second episodes are shown in JackTV via satellite.

A dream the Toy story movies.

This morning before I woke up, I’m dreaming about the Toy Story movies. Yung napaginipan ko ay hindi hango sa nasabing film series.

Wala naman akong pinapanood na Toy Story movie. Basta ko na lang napaginipan. Hindi ko maalala yung napaginipan ko.

May napapaginipan kasi ako, na basta ko na lang napaginipan.

The Jungle Book (2016 film)

I do admit that, I haven't seen the 1967 film yet.

Ang unang beses ko na nalaman ang trailer ng "The Jungle Book" ay sa flash report ng ABS-CBN. At kagabi ko lang ito nalaman.

Hindi ko masyado nabasa yung caption sa nasabing pelikula.

Pinanood ko kagabi yung teaser trailer sa iPod touch ko. At pinanood ko ulit kanina lang.

The first (1st) time na napanood ko yung trailer, nabosesan ko si Scartlett Johansson. Si Scarlett Johansson yung nagboboses doon kay Koa, the snake.

Kung babasehan yung teaser trailer, may potential na maging nominee ang "The Jungle Book" sa Oscars sa 2017, para sa categories na: Best Cinematography; at Best Visual Effects.

On tacos, and this kid-friendly, paleo-friendly, taco.

I rarely eat taco. The only food chain/store I know that sell taco is Taco Bell.

Para sa akin lang na bihira kumain ng taco, mahirap gumawa ng taco. Dahil hindi pa naman ako nakagagawa ng homemade na taco.

I was browsing Google on where to buy tacos, particularly soft tacos. Until I decided to visit the website The Fat Kid Inside by Erwan Heussaff.

Based on the appearance on the blog post, ibang design yung ginawa niya.

Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, TriNoma

Last Tuesday afternoon, I was browsing the local/Philippine website of OpenSnap to find a cafe in the vicinity of Quezon City particularly cafes in TriNoma until I found Vanilla Cupcake Bakery.


Vanilla Cupcake Bakery is located in the 2nd Floor of TriNoma. And it is located near the reverse fountain.

My first time there was yesterday lunch, while waiting for the second screening time of “Inside Out” in Cinema 1.



So my food is called Country Breakfast. It is consists of 2 sliced bread, sausage, scrambled egg, and fries. I noticed that the fries are in the style of potato wedges.

At first, I thought two sliced breads are toasted, but isn’t. The scrambled egg is okay. The sausage is a little bit spicy. And I like the fries.



And originally, my drink is Pink Strawberry. But the cashier told me that most of the frappes are not available that time except for Oreo Chocolate.

Oreo Chocolate is consisting of chocolate drink and a small piece of Oreo cookie.

The Oreo cookie has the same taste of the Oreo being sold at supermarkets and convenience stores. I like the sweetness of the chocolate drink.




As for the restaurant’s ambiance, my observance is that like you’re in a house.







If you’re looking for other branches of Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, or find out other restaurants, you may check the Philippine website of OpenSnap.

OpenSnap is available on App Store, and on Google Play.

Inside Out (2015 film)


“Inside Out” is one of the movies I anticipated to watch this year in the cinemas. Like the previous Pixar films, this movie is commercial/financial and critical success.

The five (5) emotions have their own roles to play. Maganda yung movie. Even the background music. The movie contains comedy and drama.

I like the concept of the movie, of its subject matter. The five emotions (anger, disgust, fear, joy, and sadness) incorporated in the movie’s sophisticated story.

By the movie’s climax:

* Joy realizes Sadness’ role, to alert others when Riley needs help;

* Bing Bong, Riley’s imaginary friend sacrifices himself to help Riley, Joy and Sadness;

* Disgust angers Anger when Sadness and Joy is about to fall at edge of the Headquarters before falling to the Memory Dump. With Anger’s fire on his head, Disgust use it help Joy and Sadness. Fear help the latter 2 characters climb.

At this scene when Joy gave Sadness the chance to use the control console and gave the core memories. In this scene made me cry.

There’s a special scene being featured in the beginning of the end credits.

“Inside Out” is my second favorite movie all time, the first being “Finding Nemo”.

I do admit that “The Fault in Our Stars” made me teary-eyed. “Inside Out” made me cry.

My second (2nd) time Ginza Bairin in TriNoma.





I don't remember the first (1st) time that I ate at Ginza Bairin in TriNoma. But the second (2nd) time was last time at the aforementioned mall.

I forgot the name of the food I ordered last night. The restaurant also offers unlimited rice, cabbage, and mizo/miso soup. The unlimited cabbage is shredded.

Okay naman yung tonkatsu na may cheese. Malambot naman siya. Okay din yung pagkaluto. Okay yung pagkaprito.

Medyo kamahalan ang mga pagkain nila. Lalo't originally from Japan ang Ginza Bairin.

The restaurant also have branches in Glorietta and UP Town Center:
The Glorietta branch is located in the Ground Floor level of Glorietta 2.
The UP Town Center branch is located in UP Town Center of UP Diliman.

Philippine Literary Festival 2015

I don't remember how I learned about the first (1st) ever Philippine Literary Festival. The 2014 Philippine Literary Festival was held in Raffles Makati.

For this year's Philippine Literary Festival, if my memory serves me right, I learned it from one our Saturday issue of Philippine Daily Inquirer.

Last year, I only remember Amy Tan as one of the foreign authors. This year, it is Matthew Quick and Meg Wolitzer.

Seattle's Best Coffee's Big Breakfast 3


I don't remember the last I ordered this breakfast meal from Seattle's Best Coffee. I tried this when I was at the TriNoma branch of Seattle's Best Coffee. The medium-sized drinks are free when a customer uses his/her August coupon from his/her 2015 SBC Dream Journal.

The customer may choose any breakfast meal from the menus of the aforementioned coffee shop. The staff also ask you if you like scrambled egg or fried/sunny side up egg.

Here are links for Seattle's Best Coffee:

Jack 'N Jill's Chiz Crispers



Okay naman yung Chiz Crispers ng Jack 'N Jill. Lasang Clover Chips ng Leslie's.

If you're asking me of which I like between the two, I prefer the latter. With no offence sa Jack 'N Jill.

St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori in Magallanes, Makati City.

The very first (1st) time I visited the church of St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori in Magallanes, Makati City, was 5 (five) years ago. During that time, it was the wedding day of my older brother.







And the 3rd (third) time I was at there, was my second nephew's baptism. This time, I wasn't late.
