12 Years a Slave (2013 film)

Okay naman young movie. I am quite disappointed sa exposure nila Lupita Nyong'o, at Michael Fassbender. Dahil ilang minutes lang sill pinakita.

Gusto ko yung cinematography ng film na ito.

Okay naman yung acting nila Lupita Nyong'o, Michael Fassbender, at Chiwetel Ejiofor.

I'm quited annoyed with the screen time of Lupita Nyong'o & Michael Fassbender. They have small amount of screen time.

Today's update

I originally going to post an update yesterday, but due to that unseen events yesterday, going to post an update today.

Last Friday morning, I was late going to my office because of these 2 reasons:

1) One of the buses wherein I usually take a ride is full. So I decided to took an alternative.

2) When I arrived at MRT North Edsa, there was long queue. I arrived in the building of my office around 9:34 AM.

So my "allowance" is 844 Php, instead of 900 Php.

Last Saturday morning, I took a ride on MRT North Edsa, along the ride, there's no heavy traffic along Edsa from North Edsa until MRT Ortigas.

So my 2 conclusions is these 2 reasons:

1) Leave my house early every Friday.

2) Try to take a bus until Ortigas this coming Saturday.

Post-86th Academy Awards

As you may already know, Ellen Degeneres hosted this year's Oscars. Her first time hosting the Oscars seven years ago. Okay you do the math.

There are memorable moments in the recent-concluded awards show.

There are winners that I didn't expect to win. Some of my choices aren't the winners.

I will get my uploaded photos soon.

To use or not the use that one-day free workout from 360 Fitness Club.

To use or not the use that one-day free work out from 360 Fitness Club. That is the question.

To be honest, I don't have the enough question to call or send a text message to the Ortigas branch of 360 Fitness Club. I ask the directions for the Timog branch, but the contacted person didn't gave me clear information on how to get there in their branch.

I already know the Timog branch. But first, I try to contact the Makati and BGC branches but not right now, of course.

The number one reason that I haven't tried the one-day free workout from 360 Fitness Club, is that I don't have enough courage to use it.

No. 2 reason is that if I'm going to use it and tell it to my family, I might I will receive negative comments, and they will ask me questions, and so on and so fourth.

Np. 3 reason is that I don't have enough money to enroll with 360 Fitness Club, if I'm going to pay in cash.

No. 4 reason is that I don't have a credit card to enroll with 360 Fitness Club, if I'm going to pay using a credit card. You know how hard to get one. I already ask their rates. I do remember is that they do accept credit card/s. And I don't have a stable job.

For more information about 360 Fitness Club, click here.

Going to update my blog yesterday.

I'm going to update this blog of mine yesterday, but unfortunately, I have no topic to tell.

Maybe, I'm suffering from writer's block.

Mitch Albom's "Have a Little Faith"

I bought this book in a small booth of National Book Store, in the Activity Center of the Glorietta mall, during Mitch Albom's book signing of "The First Phone Cal From Heaven." I'm currently reading the book.

I'm currently reading in the middle.

I don't know why, for some reason/s, I got bored. With no disrespect to Mitch Albom.

No post every Friday and Saturday.

As you may already know, I haven't post a blog post every Friday and Saturday, due to the fact that I have work every Friday and Saturday.

Unless either I am sick, a legal holiday on either or both days, or either reasons.

That is one of the reasons that I haven't get the chance to attend Mitch Albom's book signing of "The First Phone Call From Heaven" in Glorietta.

I'm sure that small percentage that I will not able attend the book signing on April 26, Saturday, in Glorietta.

"NBC Reviving 'Heroes' in 2015"

Yes, you read it right. NBC plans to revive 'Heroes' in 2015.

I first learned about this when I saw some information on the Facebook fan page of Heroes.

The book signing of Mitch Albom's "The First Phone Call From Heaven"

Due to the fact that I have Saturday work, I wasn't able to register and attend the book signing of Mitch Albom's "The First Phone Call From Heaven" in Glorietta.

When I was in Glorietta's Activity Center, I ask questions on regarding on people didn't made to the registration, they said that the registration had ended. And they also said that they accept books to be signed by Mitch Albom, if the customers/people will fill up a form and give to the one/s who give the small form.

The Book Thief (2013 film)

To be honest, this is not that good but not that good. I don't know why.

I like the performance of Emily Watson and Geoffrey Rush.

The scene that made me a tear or two is the scene wherein Max is leaving Liesel, Hans, and Rosa.

Review: Khaled Hosseini's "And the Mountains Echoed"

Spoiler: This book review may contain spoilers.

If my memory serves me right, most of the chapters are told in the first person point-of-view.

I have nothing against Khaled Hosseini, this is my least favorite book of his. I am somehow quite disappointed with the book. I don't know why.

Like the "A Thousand Splendid Suns", it is told by various characters. And unlike "A Thousand Splendid Suns", the book "And the Mountains Echoed" does not contain a chapter featuring two or more characters.

And unlike "The Kite Runner" and "A Thousand Splendid Suns", in my opinion, the theme of "And the Mountains Echoed" of siblings is told indirectly. On "The Kite Runner", fatherhood is told directly. On "A Thousand Splendid Suns", motherhood is told directly.

Rating: 3 out of 5.

An update on Globe's GCash and GServices.

Yesterday, particularly yesterday afternoon around 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm, I'm trying to to login on Globe's GCash and GServices, but I can't log in.

First, I discuss on Globe's GCash app.

Last Saturday late afternoon, almost 6 pm until 8 pm, I was at their branch in Megamall, para i-KYC (Know Your Customer) yung prepaid account ko. Doon rin niregister yung the same prepaid account.

Almost 2 (two) hours ko andun sa kanila, fom almost 6 pm to 8 pm para lang i-register at i-KYC prepaid Globe account ko. Successful naman.

And then yesterday afternoo, sinusubukan ko mag-log in sa GCash app using my Android phone ko.

Nung umpisa, hindi ako makalog in kahit na tama yubg niregister ko na MPIN. I tried this for several times, it was unsuccessful. Until I decided to check Google Play and the information on GCash.

On the Play Store, GCash has a new update. So I decided to update the GCash app. After its update, I decided to log in my account, okay naman. There are times na nakakalog in ako.

When there are times na hindi ako makalog in ako, I have to switch/turn off and on my Android phone and log in my MPIN.

Sa katagalan, okay na yung paglog in ko sa GCash.

Now, I will discuss my account on GServices.

Dahil sa matagal ko nang hindi nagagamit yung account ko sa GServices. I have to verify it and getting new verification code. At first, due to the fact that I was having my afternoon snack, I wasn't able to verify my GServices account. The verification code has a limit of 5 minutes to verify. So I decide to create a new verification code.

After the successful verification, my GServices account is still active.

Yun nga lang, matagal magload para makapaglog in ka.

Globe Telecom's GCash and GServices

Dear Globe Telecom,

Please improve the GCash hotline. Regardless, kung sa cellphone or landline tatawag yung customer.

I tried to get information, on how to change or retrieve my MPIN. Pero wala akong makuhang information.

Noong successful yung pag-KYC ko, kanina, sinusubukan ko mag-log in sa GCash app using my Android phone, hindi ako maka-log-in, kahit tama yung MPIN na niregister ko.

Ni walang feature na "Forgot MPIN" sa GCash app.

Sa GServices naman. Once na nakapasok ako, naverify na yung account ko, nag-log out na ako, tagal magload kapag bumalik/bumabalik ako sa GServices.

Globe Telecom, hindi ako makapasok sa GCash app, kahit na tama yung MPIN naregister ko.

Natawa ako nung first time kong napanood itong video na ito.

Hindi ko maalala kung anong mga keywords ang ginamit ko, pero aksidente lang nang makita ko ito.
