This would be dela Hoya's farewell fight and as he had said before that he does not want his farewell fight to be against his fellow Mexican so he agreed to fight the Filipino Boxer, Pacquiao.

They will fight at 147 pounds.

A fight between two boxing superstars! Will it be Pacquiao's youth, speed and power over dela Hoya's skills and size? Who do you think will win?

*For me, of course, as a Filipino myself.., it's definitely Pacquiao who will win this fight, dela Hoya is going to be knocked-out!!! lol..

movie: Hancock

2008-08-24T21:20:00.000-07:00

plot outline..

Unlike any other superhero, Hancock (Will Smith) is a troubled one - he's an alcoholic and he causes more damage while saving people, he's a savior with a bad attitude and the public dislikes him a lot - until he met Ray, a P.R. who helped him to become a superhero that people want him to be. But as all of this is happening, Hancock finds himself drawn to Ray's wife (Charlize Theron)..

my review for this movie..

The film is entertaining.., unless your not a fan of comic superheroes, you'll find it difficult to appreciate Hancock. Will Smith as a rude superhero is fun to watch and Charlize Theron is gorgeous. Enjoy this! lol..

things I do when I want to loose an undesirable amount of weight..

2008-08-20T07:36:00.000-07:00

do some exercise..

I still go to school meaning I have no time to go to a gym for a work-out so what I do is think of alternative ways to exercise:

instead of using my car to get to school, I prefer walking and instead of riding an elevator, I go for the stairs - according to studies, walking is good for the heart and an effective way to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases
I always tend to do some physical activities at home like cleaning my room, mapping the floor, washing the dishes, etc.
on weekends, I play basketball

We know for a fact that the most common basic reason why people gain excess weight is because they eat a lot of foods than their body needs. Foods have calories, and if you take in more calories than are required by your body on a day-to-day basis, those excess calories will be converted into fat!

diet..
The most effective kind of diet for me is the After 6PM Diet.

Morning, I eat heavy breakfast because I need energy to go to school. It's hard to do things and think when you have an empty stomach.

Noon, I always eat a tender tuna sandwich or maybe a spaghetti and a toasted bread.

Afternoon, I eat rice and cooked vegetables.

6:00PM, I don't eat anymore but sometimes, if I cant resist the hunger I eat fruit or vegetable salads. Reason is at night our body's metabolism naturally slows down which enables our body to store more fat.

*For me, proper diet and regular exercise is the only key to get lean and fit! Big NO using diet pills and undergo surgery!

movie: Wanted

2008-08-20T03:23:00.000-07:00

short plot outline..
A young man (James McAvoy) who hates his stressful life - works everyday in his office under an irritating fat lady supervisor, resides near a railway and his girlfriend cheats on him - suddenly given a chance to be a member of a secret Fraternity of good-guy assassins when Fox (Angelina Jolie) showed up to him..

my review for this movie..
Wanted is like a "Matrix kind of movie" with great action-special-effects.., imagine how they fire a gun and make the bullet curve through the air, and a common office employee turned into a super assassin is what make this film entertaining to watch. And of course, the presence of Angelina Jolie as an assassin contributed the biggest factor for me to watch this movie hehe!
If it wasn't for Angelina I wouldn't care to watch this movie! Angelina Jolie is so hot, she's "The Bomb"!!! lol

how to download torrent files..

2008-08-19T07:47:00.000-07:00

First thing we need to know is what a torrent file is..
Torrent can be just any type of file, such as movie, song, game, or application. It is a file sent via the BitTorrent protocol. Take note that torrent files are different from regular downloads in that they are usually downloaded from more than one server at a time. The BitTorrent protocol uses multiple computers to transfer a single file. For example, if a user begins downloading a movie file, the BitTorrent system will locate multiple computers with the same file and begin downloading the file from several computers at once.

How to download torrent file?
In order to download a torrent file, you will need a BitTorrent client, which is a software that serves as a download manager for torrent files. There are many BitTorrent client you can choose from and here are some of them.., (BitComet, uTorrent, Azureus, BitTornado, Shareaza.., etc.)

How to choose the right BitTorrent client for you to use?
For me, I uses BitComet, simply because it serves me right in terms of the speed of my downloads. Remember, the speed of your downloads also depends on the bandwidth your ISP (Internet Service Provider) has to offer, so only choose the BitTorrent client that can maximize your bandwidth.

Where to download torrent files?
You can download them at torrent sites such as btjunkie, ISOHUNT, mininova, bitdig, etc., or you can simply go to Torrent Finder (a BitTorrent Multi Search Engine which searches 158 torrent sites and trackers from one page).

I recommend..
For movie downloads, I recommend searching in MComet.com, it got all the info (cast, genre, plot-outline) of the movie you want to download. MComet is associated with wTorrent (a torrent site) where you can download the torrent file of the movie. In wTorrent, you can view the screenshots of the movie to see whether the copy is good/bad before downloading it.

Inspiring blog by Francis M..

2008-08-17T23:20:00.000-07:00

Wow.., what a blog! I've seen Francis M. blog, an icon in Pinoy rap here in the Philippines. I can say it's very entertaining reading his blog that's why viewer of his blog came up with about 1.3Million, can you imagine that? Can't imagine achieving that number for my blog, hehe! He's very famous in the music industry yet the same also in blogging.
Reading his blog, I've learned that Francis is also into photography.., his blog is full of pictures with different themes personally taken by him.., the pictures itself tell what kind of life Francis is living in. It's a very busy but joyful life, I guess!

Blogs like this get me inspire to continue blogging.

Sadly, i heard from news that Francis was diagnosed having Leukemia. I'm sure many people had felt sad about this so let's hope and pray for his immediate recovery. Get well soon Kiko!

Blogging? Huh?

2008-08-17T09:28:00.000-07:00

As I remember, first time I heard the word "blog" was when I'm watching a certain show on TV (Mel&Joey).., they featured the secrets on making money online through blogging. I never imagine that you can earn money just by writing blogs. So I did my research on what blog really is all about.., I've learned that blog can be your online journal, you can write anything you want to write, maybe about yourself, things you like, things you want to do.., ANYTHING! It's like a personal diary but the difference is others can view and read from it.
So right now, right from this moment, I'm giving it a shot lol!!!
