Everybody needs some help sometimes, even Spider-man -- MJ Watson, SPIDER-MAN 3

I love everything about SPIDER-MAN 3! It has all the elements that would make it a big hit. This 500-million-dollar (according to this site) movie is worth our hundred bucks each. We've had a two-hour full entertainment. The movie has everything a viewer could ever ask for: lovely story, fantastic visual effects, moral lesson and entertainment value. I think this is the best sequel for the movie SPIDER-MAN. I didn't expect the movie to be really great. Usually, sequels are lousy because, well, I thought producers just produce for the sake of profit. But SPIDER-MAN 3 was definitely an exception.

I love the visual effects, the concepts, the sub-plots.

Sandman and Venom are two powerful villains who, at the end of the story, felt they also have weaknesses. Even Spider-man realized in the end that he has to forgive because even he had committed mistakes in the past.

Plus, the movie was unpredictable. Who would ever thought that Harry Osborn would, in the end of the story, become Spider-man's ally?

Indeed, even super heroes have dark sides.

The most important lesson I've learned was what Peter Parker said in the end:

We have a choice.
Who we are is the result of all the choices we make in our lives.
What's important is that we choose to do what is right.

Levels Earned, Lessons Learned in SHAIYA

The holy week was not really holy for me. This was time of the year when I played hard. Really played hard, as in trying to make the toon level every time I logged in . And to help my toon level up, even my husband and my daughter would play with her. This year, my toon is DanieGanda. Danie, for the record, is my daughter's nick name. But I thought of adding the word "Ganda," which is a tagalog term for Beauty. DanieGanda is a human priest in the normal mode. As the rule in Shaiya, a player won't be able to create a character in the hard mode [here, toons are stronger] without first reaching level 40 in the normal mode, which is a level lower than HM. When DanieGanda started, she was power leveled by king-kruller, whom DanieGanda met while my daughter was playing the toon. King_kruller was als o Danie's first friend in Shaiya. At the moment, he's already level 58, UM. The experience was good for Danie was able to meet players from different walks o

Management Lessons from GUNG HO

'I must recognize that man achieves the highest degree of efficiency when he plays. If someone says he works out of loyalty to the company, he is a damned liar.' ----Soichiro Honda Founder-millionaire Honda Motor Co., Ltd. When a company fails, who should take the blame? When the workers complain, who should do some reflections, the management or the workers themselves? Hunt Stevenson, in the movie GUNG HO (means to WORK TOGETHER) , needed to do some reflections before it was too late. His failure to do some actions would result in closure of Assan Motors, thereby leaving hundreds of American laborers unemployed. According to Robert Heller, the author of the article EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT: TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, "How the boss behaves has a profound effect on how other managers perform - and thus on the performance of the entire outfit. That's a self-evident truth, acknowledged by most people. But few bosses acknowledge the corollary: that inferior performance is partl

An Open Letter to my Daughter as She Goes Off to College

Dear Stef, I know you’re excited to go to college, meet new friends, and embrace a more fast-paced life in Manila. I’m also excited for you! I know that the physical distance between us will only make you become stronger and more prepared to face the real world once you’ve finished college. I want you to be fully equipped and well-prepared when that time comes. I’m confident you won’t have problems being on your own. As you know, I’ve been there – was then studying in Manila, away from my parent, since I was in high school, kaya pagdating ng college sa Baguio, halos end of semester na lang ako umuuwi. At least ngayon, meron nang FB, Twitter, Skype and ‘unli text and call’, so keeping in touch is no longer an issue. Pero siyempre, iba pa rin kapag we don’t see you every day para kumustahin ang araw mo. . . Well, malapit lang naman ang Manila from Angeles, and madali ka lang puntahan, or madali ka lang makauwi, but it’s still very different from what I’ve been used to. Ngayon, without y
