all-time-faves rants

March 6, 2007

This morning, I was listening to 89.9’s Good Times with Mo. Every Tuesday they have a strip contest. I don’t have a thing for strip contests (not listening to them, live pa siguro..haha) but the hosts are just so hilarious. Anyway, this morning, they had a Strip Movie Trivia Contest. Actually, it hit me when they asked callers their fave movie of all time. My roommate and I were both listening so we ended up asking each other what our fave movie of all time is and I could not answer instantly.

I cannot answer my favorite movie of all time and this not apply alone to movies. Last week, Tin asked what my favorite restaurant is and I could not give her a specific place. Ang babaw ko pero I was bothered by the thought that I’m already 23 yet I don’t know what simple things I really want in life. Para akong hipong dinadala na lang ng agos. Kamusta naman sa analogy? Gusto ko may maisagot ako everytime may nagtatanong saken. And I don’t want plain-at-least-I-gave-answers type. 

I often complain everytime my friends answer “Kahit san” or “OK lang” when the perennial problem of where to eat arises. Come to think of it, ganon din ako. Nakakapikon ako! I remember the movie ‘Runaway Bride’ where Julia’s likes and dislikes change as her partner changes. Ganon din ba ako? Push-over na ba ako?! Ayoko non! Gusto ko may stand ako! Part na ko ng statistics… waaah!

So I’ll attempt to have a list of my favorites which is of course valid until further notice per DTI NCR Permit 587964. hehe… Here goes my slumbook:

All time fave…

Colors: red, white, black

Scents: cucumber melon, scent ng LB (bakit ba? may amoy saken ang simoy ng LB e), simoy ng beach

Food: inihaw na pusit at sari-saring sinugba (sa with rice to). (without rice) pizza, pasta and potato at hindi ung sa Shakey’s ha. (comfort food) ice cream (Double Dutch or Rocky Road) or French fries or Potato Chips (Original and Cheese)

Artists: (foreign) Plumb, Madonna, Bob Marley, Alanis Morissette, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Sarah Mclachlan, Jewel, No Doubt. (local) Mojofly, Side A, The Company, Sitti, Eraserheads, Hemp Republic and Brownman Revival.

Movies: For a change, hindi yung mga all-time-fave ng madlang crowd ang sagot ko like the famous Julia Roberts films. (Ayoko talagang maging ‘mere part of statistics’ kamown.) Mona Lisa Smile (Julia pa rin pero at least di ‘to common answer). Sliding Doors. Fools Rush In. Pursuit of Happyness.

Promise nahirapan ako! Madami actually akong favorite. Ang hirap pimuli ng isa lang. Yan na nga ang problema! Dapat ba talaga pag favorite isa lang? As in ultimate favorite?! Grabe naman, masyadong judgmental! Hmphf

Pero eto ang madaling sagutan na favorites:

Drinks: (non-alcoholic) water- cause I’m a water sign… haha! (alcoholic) cuervo tequila. (not so alcoholic) san mig light beer itaas mo! (cocktails) cosmopolitan (wine) Novelino Peach. {Syempre ang dami ko pa ring nasabi}

Song: Bitch (and for this year Real cause look at me I’m 23..hehe)

Yosi: Marlboro Lights with a particular way of opening it kung soft-pack. (Though 6 days na ko di nagyoyosi. Nagpost ako dati na 2-22 ako last day magyosi pero namove ng March 1. Well para di naman cold turkey at para start of the month hehehehe)

Syempre sa mga bisyo mabilis ang sagot ko. Yung song bisyo na rin kasi masarap mag-inuman pag may Videoke. Isama na rin natin ang sugal. Fave sugal ko ang buhay. Cause life is a gamble. Nakanangdrama! Pero seriously, in-between. Nakakaadik sobra.

Then again I made a mountain out of a mole. Just the simple instance of not answering favorites and I’ve already made a problem out of it. I guess that’s my favorite of all-time favorites: over-analyzing things! In short, mamroblema!
