[ i am running out of titles. ]
I'm kind of getting tired of blogging. Not because I don't have much more things to say, but because when I do, the computer has this annoying habit of not being accessible at the time.
Bad computer.
Luckily, I'm at the internet cafe today, with more time and more freedom (BYE BYE LIST OF BOOKS!) Last time I was here, the day before yesterday, I had 18 pages of work to do.
Okay. Today is Tuesday, my almost-favorite day of the week, because I get to watch my favorite shows. Plus Miss Universe was on too. Riyo Mori of Japan is this year's winner. Miss Philippines, Anna Theresa Licaros, was named Ms. Photogenic. At least may award.
Last night I also got to watch my FAVORITE show, One Tree Hill. Naadik ako dun since yung episode na naaksidente si Haley. Nun lang. Dati kahit hindi lahat mapanood okay lang. Well. Last Monday I managed to sneak in a little internet time between my 18 pages of work. So I did a little research on tonight's episode (I knew beforehand what was going to happen anyway, thanks to a little research from Wikipedia a while back.)
The One Tree Hill Friendster group I'm in had a discussion board on each episode. I commented a little and it helped to see their reactions on this night's ep. Anyway, I was real excited because in this one, Derek's back and he's got Peyton in her basement. Knowing what was going to happen made me want to watch this one even more. Brooke rescues Peyton and they make up at the end. So I wanted to see how the two of them manage to beat this maniac-stalker up.
With that over at 9 pm, I switch to RPN to watch another show which I kind of find interesting. I love America's Next Top Model and I wondered how they would do a Philippines' Next Top Model. Well, they all say we Pinoys are bad imitators, so it would be interesting to see how they'd make it this time.
Surprisingly, PNTM is innovative. The only thing is that they speak Taglish, which, even if I do speak it at most times, I find a little turn-offish. I mean can we speak one language at a time? Taglish is so corrupted and some people speak English so bad foreigners make fun of the accent. Filipinos are fond of wrong grammar. *cringe, cringe*
Back on the subject, PNTM manages to have some originality, though some critics find it "cheap". I only hope that whoever wins is really of star quality, knows how to speak good English, and will present a POSITIVE image of the Filipino (model) to the international community.
That said, I will now launch on a recap of last night's episode. I only get to watch half of the show since I'm still on ETC with One Tree Hill, so I often miss some things I should know if I watched the whole thing.
For example, when I switched to RPN during a commercial break, Joey Mead was visiting the girls in the house. There were still four of them. When I came back after One Tree Hill, they were in Hong Kong and Elf was gone.
That kind of sucked, because Elf was/is my favorite and I think she could actually win. The loss of my favorite contestant made the show less interesting. And to make things worse, my other favorite, Jen, was eliminated last night. Both in one episode?!
Oh well. That leaves only Grendel and Rina, both not particularly my favorites, but I hope Grendel wins. Last Saturday there was an update on Wikipedia that Grendel won, but it was revoked on Monday. I don't really like Rina, but she knows how to pose. I really hope Grendel wins. She lacks personality, but she's better-looking than Rina.
