french spring in manila.....

it's the week of the french spring in manila and along with this, gb3 art film cinema is having a french film festival that will run till sunday. I told myself that since I don't have anything to do in the mornings, i might as well catch some films whose chances of being shown here in the philippines are rare. but no, the need to get some sleep got the most of me. the films start showing at around 12 noon so i try to wake myself up at around 11 o'clock so that I could prepare and have enough time to go to gb3. but, as i said earlier, i find myself turning off the alarm of my phone and going back to dreamland... hay... missed opportunities.

Thinking about it, i realized that one of the reasons why i don't have the passion to go and catch these movies is that I don't have a companion. My art film buddies have been scattered around all over the country which leaves me alone here. It's no fun watching a movie alone. howell. that's life for you. i'll just pray that some of the movies being shown are being pirated and a pirated dvd copy shows up in one of the stalls in quiapo or makati cinema square =)

i might try to wake up tomorrow and watch one of the movies. that is if i have enough energy and zeal to wake up and drag myself to go to gb3.
