SUPER SIZE ME

It’s a clear and graphical description of what MCDIET can do to you and your health. For Morgan Spurlock, very heroic thing to do! Well done!

Americans are fat. Two out of three Americans are overweight or obese, but where does personal responsibility end and corporate responsibility take over? On the heels of two teenage girls suing McDonald’s for making them obese, director Morgan Spurlock sets out to discover what has made people in America so fat. The result is “Super Size Me,” a hilarious and often terrifying look at the effects of fast food on the human body.

Spurlock decided to conduct an experiment in which he would subject himself to a diet of nothing but McDonald’s fast food for a month. He only allowed himself to eat what was available over the counter at the restaurant (including water), he couldn’t super size unless asked (he ended up being asked 9 times all told), he had to eat every item on the McDonald’s menu at least once, and he had to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. Throughout his descent into the maelstrom of crappy food, he visited doctors and health professionals to track his decline in health.

At the beginning of the experiment, Spurlock clocked in at a svelte 6’ 2” tall and 185 pounds. His cholesterol was a healthy 168, his blood pressure 120/80, and his body fat measured 11%.
A month later, Spurlock’s weight had shot up to 210 pounds, his cholesterol was 230, and body fat had increased to 18%.

Rather than just following Spurlock as he visits new and exciting McDonald’s restaurants, “Super Size Me” shows interviews with medical professionals, advertising executives, and persons on the street in order to get a better idea of why people eat so much fast food, and what their attitudes toward the companies are.

“Super Size Me” presents a scathing indictment of the practices used to lure people, especially children, into eating fast food. McDonald’s sets itself up for exactly the kind of lawsuit it was subjected to simply because of its targeting of children with clowns, “happy meals,” and cartoons.

Spurlock has used a great deal of humor to address an issue that is rapidly becoming unfunny in this country, and he should be commended for it. “Super Size Me” may be an example of one man’s battle with the bulge, but it has much more to say about the alarming rate in which Americans are packing on the pounds.

CHARLIE and the CHOCOLATE FACTORY…and the LOVE for FAMILY

The message: children and parents alike are punished for their bad behavior

Here are some other thoughts to ponder on…

  • Families…on being so protective, always on your back making comments about what you should and shouldn’t do which makes a lot of us irritated but you know what… They do that because they just want to protect you… coz they love you.
  • Charlie won the factory… and Willy Wonka gained a family…
  • Moral lessons thru the songs the Oompa-Loompa sang
  • 5 different personalities… lesser rotten got picked…who are you among the 5 kids? Charlie is one saintly, well-behaved kid, Augustus Gloop – the fat kid, Veruca Salt – the spoiled brat, Violet Beauregarde – the incessant gum chewer, and Mike Teavee – video game whiz.
  • The attitude of the people inside the store who wanted to make loko Charlie just to get their hands on the ticket… LET’S TRY NOT TO BE LIKE THEM!
  • Dreams do come true… chances are up to you…
  • Once in a lifetime opportunities… it can never be valued by money… people, the “stupid ones” value money more and are willing to pass out once in a life time opportunities…

But… did it ever cross your mind that the story of Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory is like THE life of Michael Jackson?

“Consider the reclusive lifestyle, the fetishes of wardrobe and accessories, the elaborate playground built by an adult for the child inside.” It was as if Roald Dahl was a time traveler who visited the future and grew fascinated by Michael Jackson and decided to write a spoof about him in his time without anyone really knowing the source. The only problem with that idea was that since he was the only one traveling to the future, no one else in the world would get the joke…. (get’s mo?)


In this film, 5 lucky kids get invited to Wonka’s magical Chocolate Factory: two little boys, a fat kid and two annoying girls. Each time a girl asks Wonka a question, he barely gives them a second of attention. The same goes for the fat kid and the television kid. Wonka is only interested in one little boy here: Charlie, the sweet and well-mannered kid without a pot to piss in. This would be the kid to tickle Michael Jackson’s fancy, should any of those molestation allegations be true. (hehe) At the end of the film, he even asks Charlie to live in his factory without bringing his family along. The film justifies this type of action from the character with perfect reasoning but it still brings wonder to the viewer’s imagination.

…hehe… que casualidad!


willy jackson...
No offence ment to Mr. Depp…I like Johnny Depp…it’s Willy Wonka’s character played by him… not HIM per se ok?

Ok… people specially those from the freakin’ government have a thing for the obvious… but don’t do anything bout it. and IF they do decide to act, they opt for the dark side…or lemme say who ever party bids the highest for their INTERGRITY, PERSONALITY, MORALITY, (oo nga naman, why would they settle for thank you, gratitude, and clean conscience… if they can get more out of being practical with the reason of “kasi-po-iniisip-ko-lang-ang-aking-pamilya-kaya-ko-tinanggap-ang-perang-inalok-sa-akin” at least nga naman, they would look good kasi they were just thinking about THEIR family… eh naisip ba nila…pano ang justice? How about the families that are living around the villa? E How about just plain doing your f*cking jobs? NANDYAN KAYO TO HELP PEOPLE…not to deprive them from their rights!... geez man! You freakin’ know who d f*ck you are! MAGKANO BA BINAYAD SAYO at you are dropping the case??? Huh??? Isn’t it obvious that what you’re trying to do is INJUSTICE? C’mmon man… imbecile shit! Good for nothing son of a b*tch! Sige…what goes around come around! tignan nlang natin where ka pupulutin! Have you ever heard of KARMA? Are you deaf or just plain stupid? It’s LOUD (AWFULLY LOUD!) and clear (crystal clear!) that the establishment you’re protecting IS a PAIN in our ears?! Kapal mong humarap at tumungtong sa pamamahay namin! If I were you…I’d check my GMRC. Go back to basics… do some research (and phu-leeease… DON’T BE BIAS… and don’t get ruled by money… it won’t do any good for your application form for heaven) don’t bother to show your aZ here!

2 days before HELL WEEK

Hell week is coming (prelims) I remembered Tapy was the one who coined it THE HELL WEEK. He used to say that whenever I was reviewing while talking on the phone with him. Usually he would tease me and just say “mag tiwala ka sa kandilang naka tirik”… hay…that coquetear-ation died a natural death. hehe..(if you do wish hard to forget... you'll eventually WILL forget. specially with the help from reliable friends...and shoulders to cry on...you'll forget an asswh*le) am NOT BITTER...that's so last year! am just telling the truth that he was a royal asswh*le.

Anyway… hell week is fast approaching. I usually study in starbucks but this time, I was on a mission to find a better (will there be any coffee place better than starbuks?...friends, if you find one…tell me ok), more convenient and cheap place for me to study… (you’re thinking, why not the library or better yet, at home?) Well, our house is near or should I say, an open target shooting range (which the GOVERNMENT SHOULD CLOSE its OPERATION due to the fact that it IS a NUISANCE for our neighborhood and hello??? Isn’t it obvious… It’s located in a residential area. NOT an ideal place) is located at the back of our house. And the library in school is… let me just say…is not conducive for studying. (more of for sleeping)


Well, today Vonne (ei you!) and I finally checked out FUDGE. A localized starbucks near UST situated along españa. Well, the place has a convenient location for students of the university belt. The choices of foods are a bit limited, only serving some known coffee mixes, pastas, and dulces. I would say, I had a high expectation for the place, but it didn’t match up with what I expected. Or so I thought… I’d give 2 1/2 cups (5 being the highest) for their selection of coffee mixes. It costs extremely low. Just fit for the budget of students. Von not a fan of coffee, liked the frap coz it only had a hint of coffee in it. But I didn’t (any coffee addict won’t either) … the jasmine tea that I ordered was quite good tho. Jasmine herb is known to calm the sense which is good for “ngarag” students. We’d give 4 spoons for their pasta selection (which they only serve tuna carbonara and the chili version of it) both were delish! Even the pasta alone can be eaten. Plus a rich serving of the tuna/milky sauce equals a scrumptious meal worth the students’ money. Though the ambiance was a bit too inviting for sleeping…it is fine for meeting place and the mezzanine… just fit for lovers (dark and all...*winkZ*) ; ) well, being along the university belt, just expect different kinds of people.
Though I didn’t successfully found an alternative place for studying, I found another place for hanging out... (It has a potential…just place aircon and few tables outside for smokers to stay) All in all, location, food, and drinks wise… it’s not that bad at all…


Random thoughts…

If you had to choose…What would you prefer?

A lover who loves you more than his life which you don’t feel anything for him/her… Or
Someone whom you love more than your life which he/she don’t feel anything for you…

I’d choose the latter… I don’t know why… but I’d choose it. Anyway… FOR NOW.


when i do get a chance to review, or decided that i'll do good in school..there's always an interruption in school...like may events and all, no classes, programs... then yung drive or momentum ko gets lost again... why is it that way? it's ironic..

Things am looking forward to after the HELL WEEK

  • watch movies…
  1. Charlie and the chocolate factory. (with my lil bro and sis)
  2. Kill bill 1 and 2 (because of that season ender of CSI directed by Quetin Tarantino)

Porque éste es cómo me siento...

... Tenía una charla con mi amigoayer por la noche y él me preguntó cómo hacía con mi vida delamor... Dije que era solo y feliz, y eso ahora, a este punto en mi vida, No deseé complicar cosas. Entonces le preguntó lo que significa una vida complicada a mí, porque, cada vez que él me ve, Parezco tan feliz. Él incluso insistió encendido si usaba una máscara. Sí, estoy quizá... bien, olvídese de quizá... sí, Estoy usando una máscara. (hey, no consiga me... la incorrecta no orgullosa de ella... que es laverdad) finjo que soy feliz cuando soy trago totalmente y hacia fuera. Finjo que soy bien cuando no estoy realmente. Conjeturo que soy el gran pretender(sing con mí) porque, He engañado a muchos de gente alrededor de mí en el pensamiento deque estoy satisfecho con la manera que mi vida está resultando ser. (no solamente perteneciendo a mi hehe de la vida del amor...) aveces, consigue así que cansándose para hacer para creer que todo ESTÁbien. (no sé quién estoy convenciendo... si usted o yo) para el final deldía, cuando estoy todo solo, Me siento agotado, y tensionado todo para arriba sobre las cosas tontas que no sonnormalmente un problema con la gente mi edad. (porque pienso demasiado... extremadamente demasiado mucho., que consigue tan irritante ya. Esto alternadamente me hace privado de sueño. Si soy o no usando una máscara, al infierno con lo que piensa la gente. Esto es lo que me siento.

babae akong namumuhay nang mag-isa

babae akong namumuhay nang mag-isa,
hiwalay sa asawa,
matandang dalaga,
kerida,
puta.

Ang aking pag-iisa’y batik na itinuring,
latay na pabaon ng nakaraan,
pilat na taglay habambuhay.

May pagsusulit na di ko nakayanan,
may timbangan sumukat sa aking pagkukulang,
May pagsusuring kumilatis
sa pagkatanso ng aking pagkatao.
Lagi’y may paghuhusga saaking pag-iisa.

Ang di nila nakita’y
Akin ang pasya.
Maliit na kalayaang
Hinahamak ng iba pang
Pagkapiit at pagkaalipin
Sa akiing lipunan.


Ang pag-iisa’y di pagtalikod sa
pag-ibig, o pagnanasa o pananagutan.
Hindi ito pagsuko
Sa katuparan ng mga pangako
O pagkakatutuo ng mga pangarap.
Hindi pagtanaw sa buhay
Nang hubad sa pag-asa.

Paghangad ko lamang
Na kamay ko ang magpatakbo sa aking orasan;
Puso at isipan and sumulat ng aking kasaysayan,
Sarili ko ang humubog sa aking kabuuan.
Hayaan akong mabuhay nang payapa,
nang hindi ikinakabit sa aking pangalan
ang mga tawag na pagkutya:
puta,
kerida
matandang dalaga,
hiwalay sa asawa,
babae man akong namumuhay nang mag-isa.


i just love this selection from our philippine literature course... it's by joi barrios from u.p.,
It embodies a strong willed, independent woman full of confidence and self- esteem. So much so that the character doesn't care whether she's alone and what other people think about her. She just dons what she does best... make way for WOMAN EMPOWERMENT! go chickas!
