Disturbing Movies That Raise your Eyebrows Part 1


I've been mingling around the interwebs for awhile now and these are some of my findings. Most of this movies are really weird and I don't recommend watching them with your girlfriend or your family. These movies really push the boundaries of how much gore, blood, violence and everything else we can put into movies. Some can be artistic (in a way), some just are downright grotesque. You may not have the time,resources or interest to watch these movies but when you do, just check this list up.

Little Experiment on Online Garage Sales


I'm a little intrigued with this new trend of selling almost anything online. Not only on Ebay or local Sulit but also on good old Facebook so what i'm gonna try right now is I'm gonna try selling crap online on some local friends and see how this thing works. I will keep you posted on the stuff that I will sell (I assure it will be crap.hehe.) and the results.

Peace Out.

Revisiting:Pokemon

I was one of the several people caught by the Pokemon wave. Like many, my obsession started with the "Vanilla" Pokegames for the Game Boy, Pokemon Red and Blue
(Fun Fact: There was also a Pokemon Green in Japan.
Pokemon Green was hard and had extended dungeons. Pokemon Red was
released as a whole different game about three months later.)
My first impression on Pokemon was that it was a decent RPG game with all the right ingredients for addictive gameplay like item collecting, backtracking, leveling up and a unique concept of using

monsters to fight your battles for you. What really caught my attention with Pokemon where the Pokemon themselves. The first 150 Pokemon were unique and quirky in their own little (or large) ways. From Bulbasaur to Mewtwo, every single one of them was so interesting that you really had to "Catch em all" (Hence the very effective catchprase.) Flash forward a year later, the Pokemon cartoon was released. The adventures of Ash Ketchum and his friends was the number one factor that changed my in
terest to an obsession.

From the games, I quickly branched out
to shirts, toys, books and also the trading card game made for Pokemon. I got so obsessed that I also wanted my bags, notebooks, pencils, socks( Hey, I was a kid back then, give me a break...) to be Pokemon.Everything just had to be Pokemon.


The Pokemon franchise has a creative and diverse environment. It's world is huge and it's very easy to get sucked into.
Unfortunately, evil business executives started to spam Pokemon too much and
they've made way too many games, way too may t.v. shows, way too many merchandise (Pokeunderwear,anyone?) and after the 2nd season of the Pokemon series, I just lost interest. Even though I'm not into Pokemon that much nowadays, I'm impressed that even up till now, Pokemon is still going strong with its seven-thousand version of the Pokemon cartoon, New released games of Pokemon such as Pokemon Black,White,Monochrome(?) and Rainbow(?!) and the market is still flooded with pokemon merchandise. In the end, I was glad that I got caught (and got out) of the Pokemon wave but I never regret that I got in it in the first place (I still enjoy watching the series from time to time).I will refuse to say that Pokemon was a fad because it's still here and going strong, lets just say that Pokemon say is "old new". Long Live Pikachu!
Pika Pika (Peace Out).
