On “Envy”

i never thought a Jack Black film would be so enriched with values.  hehehe…  because, honestly, i’m way too pissed on the characteristic approach his characters usually take.  but i guess his character in "Envy" is still such, yet the movie itself is brilliant in the message it contains.  given such a title, it is quite expected what the movie would be about.  i would not be giving a summary/synopsis of the movie here - try watching it instead.

it’s quite daunting that sometimes a "simple" concept such as friendship is not being given enough light in movies.  well, "Envy" just did blasted enough light on that matter. there’s is nothing more fulfilling than knowing that you’re friends accept you as you are, and are all willing to grow with you.

i had this friend once whom i guess i "loved".  hehehe….  we used to grow together.  share weird thoughts.  define weirder ideas.  and suddenly we split.  just that.  maybe we learned to grow apart.  to become independent of each other.  to be back to what we are before.  but i’m saying this to myself, "no regrets, no matter what.  it would be the times we shared that would matter anyway."

    I hope you’re online. Nood tayo (Don’t be such a stuck-up grown-up). Wala akong ibang kaibigan na kilala si Aslan, naka-encounter ng Marsh-Wiggle o nakasakay na sa Dawn Treader (save for Zarah, but then…)

    Oo nga pala, remember the previously-owned book dealer sa AS Walk na kinuwento ko? May Murakami sya, so minus 100 or so ng bookshop price yung benta nya. Hindi pa mukhang second-hand yung mga libro. Madami rin syang Ayn Rand, may Rushdie rin akong nakita. Bumili ka para hihiramin ko.
