Rating : 8.8

 I got to admit but I watched this movie because I was searching for a good movie to watch and this movie keeps on popping on my search box. So I did a little research on this movie and I have noticed that almost all of the greatest directors the I know recommend to watch this movie. I was a bit hesitant at first because I am not used to watch movies that is too old. I have given exception to the movie Godfather even though it was boring at first glance but I know this is a good movie so I watched it. Going back to citizen Kane, I decided to watch the movie. At first I was expecting different. I was expecting to get bored but as soon as the movie starts it feels like it was made last year.

The story and the camera angles that they use is exceptional. I was surprised I couldn't leave my seat. I wanted to know more. Especially with the word " Rosebud". That is the main story of Citizen Kane. Knowing the true meaning of Rosebud. The story is about a rich man who has it all. Except for one thing which is I think is happiness. 

We all search for happiness and money. For me money is easier, but the things that will make us truly happy is hard to find and hard to withhold. Sometimes we have it but we take it for granted. 

Everyone should try watching this movie to be enlighted with what money and power can do to us. If you are a movie buff you should also watch this movie. This is a must see movie for all movie lovers. You will never go wrong.

Movie Review: Suicide Squad 2016

MOVIE TRAILER

Director : David Ayer

Starring : 

Will Smith

Jared Leto

Margot Robbie

Joel Kinnaman

Viola Davis

Rating : 8.5

 Suicide Squad you will never have any other bad group as good as them. They may have a lot of differences but in the end they can work all together. You never thought that this group can work together. I really like the movie, a lot of people says that this movie is not good but for me the story line is great. Most of the viewers today does not like to watch a story but they will rather watch a movie with lots of action.

The music they used in this movie is very dark and yet is very exciting. They have good choice in the music it really blends well with the whole production of the movie. You can never go wrong watching this movie. You will never leave your seat because you will want to watch every seconds of it. 

The actors are really good in this movie. They have played well with their roles. The story is much like how the DC movies are. They have a very slow intro and in the end you will not recognize that the movie is ending unlike the other movies when you know the movie is ending. I am sure the the DC universe is now coping up with the Marvel movies. Next time we will also look forward for their movies.

Restaurant Review : Yvan Navy

Location : Visayas Ave.

Price : Burger 4/5 Beef Quesadilla 2/5 = 3.5/5

We ordered Beef Quesadilla and their famous burger. For me the price of the burger is very very affordable with just 150 pesos you can get a big burger but for the quesadilla it cost a lot for its serving, they charged us 90 pesos for the small quesadilla

Taste : Burger 3/5 Beef Quesadilla 2.7/5 = 2.85

The taste of the burger is good but it is not that excellent, the only thing that can get you here is because of their large servings of their burger and for the taste of the quesadilla it was just ok and for me it is not the really satisfying because of the serving size. Maybe because I expect more since their burger is big.

Ambience :  2.9 /5

The place is clean but outside of the restaurant is not that appealing. Nothing special about the venue. If you just to eat a big burger this is a good place but don't expect too much.

Servings : Burger 4/5 Beef Quesadilla 2.9/5 = 3.45

The servings of the burger is big and 150 pesos is more than enough for the servings. But I think the only thing that has a big servings here are the burgers.

Waiting time: 3.7 /5

Waiting did not took too long, we waited around 10mins. With this we were satisfied of their fast transaction.

Overall : 2.7 / 5

It was not a bad experience at the same time it was not that good of experience. We went here because of the burger and we were satisfied, but for the ambience it was average, if you want a place to hang out with your friends this is a good place. But for lovers I would suggest you to go to other place to be more romantic.

Restaurant Review : Razon

Location : SM San Mateo

Price : 2.9

The price here in Razon is pricey for the meal that they are serving. For all the food that we order it cost us around 600 pesos. The price for the meal for me is a little bit high for the servings that they give. It is expensive for the food quality that they offer. Maybe it is because the restaurant is well known already.

Ambience :  3/5

It is like your typical restaurants in the mall where you have a couch and also a table and chairs that is uniquely designed. But they have put a beautiful wallpaper that has a Filipino pride in it which compliment it with their tables and chair. It is not very cozy but you will surely enjoy eating here.

Taste :  3/5 for the meals 4.5/5 for the halo halo
We have ordered Adobo, Lechon Kawali, homemade chicken and the famous Razon's Halo halo
The adobo is just simple you have the meat and a combination of hard boiled egg. I like how they cook the meat because this is how I like it. It has a lot taste in it but for me it is just an average adodo and nothing special in it.

Homemade chicken from its name homemade you can really do this meal at home. It is just a simple fried chicken.

From all of the three meals that we have ordered my favorite is the Lechon Kawali although it just have an average taste but when you partner it with a Sarsa you will love it.

Lastly the Famous Razon's Halo halo. The price may not be cheap but the taste of the Halo halo is one of a kind. People go to Razon just to taste their halo halo. It is topped with Leche flan and has a very very sweet taste that compliments well with all the fruits that is inside it. I would recommend that you try halo halo in their restaurant. You cannot make this in your home.

Waiting time : 3.5/5

We have waited for 15-17 minutes for our meal. It was fast because there are a lot of people also ordering so, I don't have anything against it because there are a lot of people. 

Overall : 3.2 / 5

It was a great experience dining here and I will definitely go back for the Halo halo. Their meals needs an improvement so it will be a total package where you can eat and have a tasty dessert 

Are you lost?

Are you lost?

Do you feel stuck and wonder why you are here in this world? Do you feel that your life feels like a routine that you need to get out of but you can't? Have you ever given a time to talk to yourself and ask yourself that, is this the life that I wanted to live?

Well I have been there also. Sometimes in my life I feel like I don't want to move and do nothing because I have given up on myself. I feel like I am a failure and I have nobody in my love. I just scroll down on Facebook and other to social media and compare myself to other people's  life. It seems like the jealousy that I am feeling is endless. It makes me do nothing with my life. I feel hopeless. If you ever feel like this you have forgotten who you are.

When those things happen to me I just immediately stand up and look at myself in the mirror to see who am I really and what is my purpose. You will realize that you are a lucky person. We tend to think that nobody cares for us but if we look deep inside our heart you will realize that a lot of people loves you and yet you don't accept their love because you are used to it. Little did you know that you are taking them for granted. Be grateful for those people who see your beauty. You are very lucky to have them in your life.

Also consider that you have a life and you have a choice in your life whether you are going to live your life to the fullest or live your life watching other people's life. You can choose to be happy or you can choose to be lonely. It is up to you, it is your life. But I want you to choose what is best for you. You live in this world for you to stand up and do the things that you want in your life. You should not always lay down and do nothing, you will have plenty of time with laying down by the time you are dead.

Be one with yourself again by doing meditation. By doing this you will have a peace of mind. Sometimes when you have a lot of things to think about, all you need to do is think about nothing and let it all go. Your soul will also be empty if you do not ask for God's help. You should also believe in something that there is a higher power. God is the one who is helping us and pointing us in the right direction. It is up to us to read the signs and do it.

Create a path that you want to take in your life. Your life may have a lot of obstacles but as long as. You believe in the path that you have taken, you will surely past thru all those obstacles. Obstacles are meant to be in our path to know if we truly deserve what we desire in our life. Do not worry if things don't work out at the first place. It was meant to be like that at first, sooner or later you will find the right solution to your chosen endeavor. Do your best in every situation. 

And eventually you will have the life that you desire. Be grateful and move your body towards your destiny

Love the life that you have. You only have one life. Dont waste it in doing nothing. Use your life to improve your or some other people's life. Just imagine a place where people live in peace and harmony and all of us are living the life that we want and deserve.

You can do it, I believe in your ability to succeed

Restaurant Review: Barney's Burger

Location: Marikina East Centre Bldg. Gil Fernando Ave Marikina City 

Price: Affordable 3.5/5

The Price is affordable for the value that it is giving. You can buy 3 burgers with just shelling out 300 pesos. For some burger house you see in a mall with this price they can only give you one burger but for them they can give you 3 and you will have a take home for yourself or for your family.

Taste: 3.7/5

We have ordered BBQ burger and their specialty which is the Fully loaded burger with fries. You can have burger with fries’ combo by just adding 20 pesos. At first I have tasted the Barbeque burger which is very delicious it has a very savory flavor and you can taste the barbeque sauce with it. I still have the after taste after 2 hours because it was very tasty for me. The Fully loaded burger is packed with a lot of burger, bacon and some other stuffs that I also enjoyed. For the fries it was an ordinary fries that you can order in your local grocery but nothing beats their extra ordinary burgers.

Ambience: 3.5/5

The ambience is Ok for the place. It is a small place but I can see the they really have maximized the space. Its looks like a normal restaurant besides your neighbor.

Servings: 3.7/5

Big servings with the right price. You get what you deserve here.

Waiting time:  4/5

The waiting time is 15-20minutes so make sure you don't go there really hungry. The reason for this is they want to serve their customers a very fresh burger. Once you tasted their burger it is worth the wait.

  Overall: 3.68 / 5

It was a good restaurant a very affordable and yet offers a superb quality. The burgers are good but I think it should also be partnered with a tasty fries’. But overall I enjoyed eating at the Barney’s burger and I would recommend this to people who craves for a tasty affordable burger. This is a nice place to take your partner. You will both enjoy your date.

A bowl of Oranges

A bowl of oranges

In an empty range.

It's perfect with no edges

Why is it that it is inside this room?

Will it ever bloom?

Or is it going to face it's doom.

It is just me and you

That makes us two,

Wait a minute

I will just count it

1,2 and 3

There are 3 pieces of oranges

One was not fresh

It seems lik it was 3 days ago

I just really don't know

What I am going to do?

A  bowl of orange doesn't last for too long. It is either  you eat it now or watch it spoil.
