Major LSS: Up Dharma Down – Tadhana

/ iamsupercarla / 2 Comments

This band is the band that brought us together.  About six years ago, we were listening to one of their best songs (if not the best), and I caught him listening as I was singing the part that I meant:

Malas mo, ikaw ang natipuhan ko.

After all this time, it’s still Armi and her men that tickled our hearts with the simplest of songs.

Wag mong ikatakot ang bulong ng damdamin mo
Naririto ako’t nakikinig sa’yo.

The two songs we are so mad about in one performance at that fateful night in Route 196 over a year ago.

*sigh*

REVIEW: The Descendants (2011)

/ iamsupercarla / Leave a comment

The first thing that I found I had in common with Tita Maggie, is George Clooney.  I remember that day well.  We were in the kitchen and I was telling her why Grey’s Anatomy is a must see for her.  She then started crooning about ER and I said one person made that show great.  We simultaneously cooed, “George Clooney.”

That’s exactly what happened last Friday night.  After discovering I have completely lost my voice to fatigue, I made myself comfortable and started playing The Descendants.  Mr. Clooney played his part so well that my heart repeatedly broke.  And Hawaii never looked better.

The movie starts with a narration of Honolulu-based lawyer Matt King (Clooney).  He is the sole trustee of a prized piece of land on the island of Kaua’i.  His wife was in a motorboat accident that rendered her comatose.  Now, this “back up” parent has to learn to manage all the balls in the air:  his two daughters who are growing increasingly more difficult to deal with, his family who urges him to sell the Kaua’i property, and the citizens watching his every move.

Homer is Sweet

I knew for a very long time now that Homer Simpson is prolly the most immature father ever made by man.  But I also know he is the sweetest and most loving husband, too.

REVIEW: Like Crazy (2011)

/ iamsupercarla / 1 Comment

Do you remember my post a few weeks back when I was still so energized to constantly update as I am now feeling quite disheartened with my lack of specialized writing skills when I posted all about the gory bits?  That came from 2011’s Before Sunrise/Before Sunset film, Like Crazy.

Like Crazy stars Anton Yelchin and Felicity Jones as Jacob and Anna, who fell in love in college.  Anna, staying in the US on a student visa, impulsively decided to spend the summer with this hot new passionate exciting love and only went back to the UK for a family event.
