But now I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

musings…

hmmm, i don't know. i feel like i miss the old calliope version. or maybe i just haven't gotten the hang of this new one. is it just me, or are there fewer header image choices for this template? and is it just my screen, or are the sidebar title text really looking none-too-smooth and quite jagged around the edges? especially for the font i'm using. and what happened to the other font styles for the sidebar title text? i kinda miss those, and i kinda miss having them just a little bigger than what it is now — which is ugly. i tried to change to the Gothic and the Muse template, but then my blog got all screwed up. so i switched back to the simpler templates. grr.

the profile page looks nice and cute, i guess. i'm not even subscribed to half the things there. but anyway, i guess it's cool having ur friendster, myspace, and multiply contacts all showing up.

*sigh*

i guess i need to let this new version grow on me. but damn i miss the old font styles for the entry and sidebar titles! these fonts now are so friggin' boring.

going solo with pirates

August 8, 2006

i did it again. on a sudden whim, i went off and watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest on my own.

at around 7:30 PM last saturday i found myself in Ayala Center. i was planning to have dinner there, since I didn’t think my screaming tummy could wait ’til i got home. i was on the escalator when i remembered that i hadn’t seen POTC yet. i thought, maybe i should watch it before it got scratched off the list of Now Showing movies, plus how could i pass up johnny depp? if i didn’t grab the chance while it was still showing, i’m gonna be stuck with a DVD…and films like this are so much better when experienced with cinematic surround sound and a wide, wide screen.

so i went, armed with large fries, large iced tea, regular KFC Hot Shots, and my favorite Tater’s butter-drizzed popcorn. i found a comfortable aisle seat, with at least 2 empty seats beside me (i didn’t want to sit beside some stranger, or worse, some lovestruck dating couple!).

i watched, ate, and laughed out loud, all by myself. i headed home around 11 PM and just fell right into bed.

surprisingly, i didn’t dream about pirates.
