When the boy from Tatooine joined the Dark Side.

We're taking our sweet time watching the remaining season finales. By next week, there will be no new episodes to watch out for. It'll be an agonizing three-month wait for the new seasons to begin. I really should start watching summer shows, noh? Been hearing lots of raves about Suits but I've never seen a single episode. Perception's coming back by the end of June. I like that show. You'll be seeing a different Eric McCormack there. So different that by the end of the first season, you'll forget he was ever Will Truman.

I couldn't pass up on Criminal Minds though because Luke Skywalker Mark Hamill was guest-starring for their two-hour season finale.  I always have a soft spot for Star Wars actors. Even the cast and crew were ecstatic when they tweeted BTS photos with him. Who wouldn't be? It's Luke Skywalker!!! (sorry, geek at heart speaking)

I still miss Prentiss. But I'm warming up to Beth for Hotch. Bellamy Young plays her with such restraint it's hard to believe this is the same actress who plays power-hungry First Lady Mellie Grant on Scandal. And how can I forget Sean? It was so great to see Eric Johnson again after six years. Bro(thers) Ho(tchner), FTW! Can he please guest-star again next season?

They'll be on their ninth season this September. Nine years! Can you believe that? That said, Blake should be the last new member on the team. She's no Elle or Emily but she's a good fit for the group. Enough of cast changes. I already like the team as it is this season.

Let The Goodwin Games begin!

The Goodwin siblings: Henry, Chloe and Jimmy

The Goodwin Games was a surprise. I watched the first episode the other night and I liked it. It's not outright funny but actors pretty much nailed their parts. Becki Newton will always be funny in anything she does, even when she's trying to be serious. Scott Foley doing comedy? Why not? Too bad this seems to be a limited series since Fox cut its episode order from thirteen to seven. 

The show revolves around three estranged siblings who reunite after their father's death. He turns out to have $23 million to his name and will only give the money to the sibling who wins the game of trivial pursuit that he prepared. The man loves games and his parenting style, as shown in flashbacks, reflects that. It's a tall order because his kids have never finished a game before. They fight over trivial matters.

Henry, the uptight eldest son, is a surgeon who unexpectedly runs into his minister ex-girlfriend while in town. Chloe, the middle child, used to be a child prodigy who decided she just wants to be popular. Jimmy, the youngest, isn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed but provides the voice of reason for his oldest siblings. How will three thirty-something individuals deal with being asked to move back into their childhood home? Who will win the $23 million?

Watch The Goodwin Games to find out.

Change is in the horizon.

PLDT called today to verify my application details. This is it. Change is inevitable and I couldn't be more thrilled. Hopefully it gets installed within the week so that I can work on terminating my account with Globe.

Mobile life has a different story for me though. My S4 application is a goner. It's okay. I take it that I'm not meant for a second postpaid line. It's just hard to love this Samsung Galaxy Y when it doesn't live up to what I want in a smartphone. But I'll save up. The right phone will come along one of these months. The next iPhone, perhaps?!?

I was surfing the net earlier and somehow wished I knew how to do blog design. That would save me money from hiring a blog designer and if I’m lucky, I might even earn from it. But God has decided I wasn’t the artistic type. I’ll have to make do with tweaking pre-installed blogger templates and changing headers for the time being. Someday, this blog will experience a grand makeover.

Muscle pains and #mabekah feels.

My legs hurt like hell. Para akong tumakbo sa marathon na hindi nakapag-warm up. I refuse to blame Park Mall for this since we only went there yesterday to do some groceries. I think it’s our new method of feeding the puppies. We strategized to feed them individually, meters apart from each other to avoid food fights. And that means you have to move fast because these babies have very short attention span. Oh wait… I was chasing after Gwen pala! She got out unknowingly and I had to chase her back to the house. It was a funny sight. Ask my sister. It looked like I was running after a chicken. ^__^

A good photographer would’ve been able to capture that moment perfectly. Speaking of which, out of the blue, my Powershot A2300's camera flash died on me. It hasn't even been a year since I bought it. Nakakainis. I should've waited and saved up for a high-end, DSLR-like quality point and shoot camera. But no, I was too gung-ho on buying a camera that I can bring with me anywhere. Oh well, I'll have it checked by Canon before its warranty period expires. Sana covered pa yung repair. Thank goodness though the DSLR is still in perfect condition. *crosses fingers*

How cool was season finale of The Vampire Diaries? The Silas/Stefan twist was unexpected and I’m so happy Paul Wesley is finally getting a storyline away from all the Damon/Elena drama. If The Ripper arc was any indication, he’ll rock it as Silas passing himself off as Stefan with a darker personality. Now what is Mystic Falls without any love story, huh? I barely paid attention to the other hook-ups but felt giddy all over when Matt/Rebekah got their happy ending (for now). #mabekahftw Part of me hopes TPTB will make a surprise announcement around August saying Zach Roerig is moving to The Originals. If not, then they have to do crossovers right? I’ll demand for it, along with other #mabekah fans, until Julie Plec listens.
