...life in a day...

Most of what I've written here is all about the mundane parts of my life. And I assure you, it's pretty boring. I rarely go outside except when there are errands that needs to be attend to. The only time I look forward to going out is during my early morning run at the track which is cool even if I end up drenched in sweat and gasping for breath.

My day usually starts long before the sun is up. Three days in a row, I intentionally get up early to read on Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol. I basked in the silence around me while I delved myself deeper into the story. It almost feels like I am actually in there. From there, when all the world around me is starting to wake up, I go to work and from time to time check my email, lose myself in the music, etc.

My work does not require my brain to work very much so I compensated for it by reading a lot and writing on my blog from time to time. To keep the wheels turning and screws squeaky-clean, so to speak.

Since I'm up and about before the crack of dawn, I impose it upon myself to sleep early. No more hanging out to watch late night movies shown on HBO, Cinemax or Star Movies.

I spend most of my days coop up inside my room. Somehow I like it. It's beginning to annoy me If I am surrounded with too much noise. My room offer me the silence I always crave except for the occasional type of music that plays in the background. I am pretty much settled in, all by myself.

...broken House...

"I want to deal with my problems some place where I can get a decent cappuccino."

Even before the last episode of season 5 ended, I was already looking forward for season 6. I'd spent countless hours, catching up all 5 seasons of House.

Watching House again, with his signature sarcastic attitude, is like a breath of fresh air. The first time I saw him on TV, I thought to myself, this is one doctor I'm going to like big time.

"We're all pathetic. It's what makes everything interesting."

...Booth loves Bones...

At a crime scene on the first episode entitled "Harbingers in the Fountain"

I was like a lovestruck teenager while the new episode of Bones unraveled before my eyes. Yes, that's how I'm into Bones right now. Ive never been lovestruck and I'm far from being a teenager anymore. It's good to see Bones and Booth again, doing their thing, solving crimes and catching the bad guys.

Bones: What did you want to tell me?
Booth: That I love you... In a professional, 'atta girl' kind of way.
Bones: 'Atta girl' kind of way? Right back at'cha Booth. I love you too. 'Atta Boy.'

I'm looking forward to the next episode. I'm back to counting the days.....

...Bones is coming too...

While I'm looking forward to House' return, allow me to remind you that there's another doctor whom I am more than happy to be watching on TV again. You may or may not know her. I'm referring to Dr. Temperance Brennan a.k.a. Bones. After watching the finale episode of the previous season of Bones, I was left wanting for more, ecstatic that they end up together but later on disappointed. Well, enough of that. I can't wait for the next season to be release and I have here a snippet of the first episode, courtesy of youtube. Enjoy!

...del Potro wins...

del Potro's moment

With the recent conclusion of the Men's US Open Finals, only one victor emerged and this time not the number one seeded player, Roger Federer but the 20-year old Juan Martin del Potro.

I could not say something much about the game because I kept switching off the TV when I saw that del Potro is leading. I'm a fan of Federer but I had to say that del Potro played well during this match.

Sometimes, things don't come out the way we want it to. I believe Federer would have wanted very much to win this match but then even if he did not, I guess he's still comforted with the fact that he already won it for the past five years. Besides, he is always be Roger Federer, the world's greatest tennis player ever.

the champions

this is what dreams are made of

...a comeback win...

I'm back.

I've been following the US Open this year ( but not closely). A wild card entry has been making waves since the start of the tournament. She had done the feat of defeating Venus Williams in the fourth round and Serena Williams in the Semi-finals. Not to mention that she has been out from the tennis limelight since winning the US Open in 2005. I'm talking about Kim Clijsters, the 2009 US Open Women's Singles Champion. The first mother to win a Grand Slam title since Evonne Goolagong Cawley. ( click here)

The first time I watched a match live on TV, from the start until the end.

It's good to be champs.

...House is coming...

After what it seemed like ages of waiting, House is back again. I am looking forward to seeing the "infamous" doctor back on screen. Has he finally changed his ways? Or does his stint at the psychiatric ward did nothing to curb down his acerbic disposition.? Let's watch it to find out..:-)

...the Dragon wins...

Lyoto "the Dragon" Machida

I've been interested in the world of martial arts since I started learning kickboxing. ( too bad because I don't practice anymore) Anyway, I begun starting UFC fights on TV during those times when I can't find a single movie on HBO or Cinemax that is worth watching. And it so happened that it piqued my interest despite the blood and "gore" from the fights. Just this morning I watched live on cable TV the main event fight of Lyoto Machida and Rashad Evans. I was in favor of Machida and I'm glad he won.

...my unhappy ending?...

Brennan and Booth

together

losing it

thinking hard

For the past few days, I've been so caught up with this two doctors ( they are on TV..). I'm not obsessed with them, its just that they are excellent and so cool to be doctors.. House's lack of bedside manner is compensated by his exceptional diagnostic skills and Brennan's lack of social skills fades to oblivion when she identifies beyond recognition corpses and help catch the bad guys.

The final episode of House season 5 showed the consummation of House and Cuddy's "make-out session". Too bad isn't true. House has been hallucinating and realized that he has a lot more to deal with other than the constant pain on his leg. Vicodin is no longer enough. He ended up admitting himself to a psychiatric hospital. Could it be that the brilliant doctor is losing his mind. At some point through the course of watching this episode, I was disappointed but on the other hand I'm filled with anticipation for the next season. I can't wait for it to unfold and it sucks because I have to wait till September to find out.

When I finally watched the last episode of Bones season 4, I got confused and I really don't dig what happened at the end. All the excitement I felt for this finale episode went down the drain. I'm not sure if there's another season coming up, I hope there is because the ending has left many things unsaid.

In conclusion, House ends up in a nut house and Booth does not recognize Brennan anymore. What a show....

...I'm so into BONES...

A couple of hours ago, I watched the latest episode of BONES. I like the tandem of Dr. Brennan a.k.a. Bones and Agent Booth. They always work together fine and their somewhat "closeness" is kind of leading to favorable developments. I do hope they will end up together before the season ends. There are two more new upcoming episodes I will be looking forward to...
