It’s so hard to laugh out loud if you’re watching in the theater alone. I just contained myself in giggles and suppressed laughter and let my chair do all the shaking for me.

I watched Deadpool & Wolverine while my girls are with their elementary bffs, roaming around Shangri-la Plaza. The story is light-weight, just an excuse to bring back Logan from the dead. Fox already killed Wolverine but Disney (post-acquisition of Fox) resurrected him, which could open a lot of possibilities. This movie also brought to life Gambit, with his real-to-character Cajun accent, albeit exaggerated since they were in The Void.

Elektra and Blade were there as well. Blade is the real Marvel Jesus, not Deadpool. Marvel was on the brink of bankruptcy when it released Blade and the first movie was a sleeper hit. It saved Marvel.

Anyway, it was a fun movie that one shouldn’t take seriously. You wouldn’t get the jokes if you’re not up-to-date with pop culture.

I braved the weekend traffic to Metro Manila so that my kids can meet their gradeschool friends.

As much as I want to lie down and chill in bed the whole Saturday, I can’t deny my girls the chance to see their friends.

After we went our separate ways (I left them at Starbucks with friend #1), I occupied myself by visiting the art galleries at Shangri-la.

No, I didn’t buy anything. I don’t need more painting and writing supplies… 🫠

Wooohooo breaking news!

My hair stood on its ends while our national anthem played.
