Archives For Spanish

More than half the day gone by, but still time!

Feliz 28~ xD

I made a YouTube playlist for everyone, with a sort of international flavor. ^^
I hope you listen to all of the tracks, because… well,
that’s the way it’s supposed to be, right?

Also… don’t mind the actual music videos, just focus on the music. LOL
trust me.

What’s so awesome about this 10-track list?
It’s got 3 different renditions of the famous El Condor Pasa,
lots of international flavor right there!

  2. 12 Girl Band (女子十二乐坊) – El Condor Pasa
  3. Gianmarco – Hoy
  4. Pedro Suarez Vertiz – Cuando Pienses en Volver
  5. Jean Paul Strauss – Matarina y Mambo de Machaguay
  6. PAPA SARA (パパ・サラ)- CONDORU wa Tondeiku (コンドルは飛んで行く)
  7. Gianmarco – Volvere
  8. Eva Ayllon – Y se Llama Peru/Contigo Peru/Esta es mi Tierra
  9. CantoAndino – El Condor Pasa
  10. Los Nosequien y los Nosecuantos – Tributo al Rock Peruano

Almost the end of the month.

and almost July 28th.

First~ Many people who said are collaborating on this issue of YAM have taken forever to either contact me with their updates, or are avoiding my emails. Just a few days to hand in stuff!

Then, I just spent all day talking to my father about event planning, and Asian music. Totally uncharted territory here, and no one seems to care. I care. I want to make it happen! Asian is way to ignored on this side of the world…

I’m also scared shitless about talking to a group of 200 people. In Spanish! I could probably deal in English, but in Spanish is just way to awkward. The only good thing would be that I get to talk about animation, with the risk of getting crushed with fanatics. I’ll just keep in mind to capture the mind of the people who are truly passionate about animation.

I hope it turns out right.

I feel I’ve got no direction in life at the moment. I want to do events, I want to be here but also there~~~ Hopefully, there will be something to combine all of it into one.

*EDIT*

btw, Happy Bday, Bibi!!! xD
She’s 24! :O

Plus some July xD

See… when I listen to more music, I watch less films… and when I do these things, I don’t read at all. I’m ashamed of how much I read now… LOL – and just so you can make fun of me, I’ve only been reading Buffy (season 8 comic) xD

Am bored. Also remembered I haven’t done this in a while…

Plus, it’s Twenty 2009 films!! Only 28 more LOL!

So what’s up?

July 19, 2009 — Leave a comment

xD

I don’t normally go out on Sunday, but I went to the ballet performance of Sleeping Beauty. Meh, I don’t think I’m a ballet person… though it was kinda funny. xD – Many of the dancers had familiar faces xD

Sleeping Beauty… I mean, Aurora was the tinier version of Elizabeth Berkley. then the main fairy was a taller version of Amy Adams xD Then the kitty cat (don’t ask) reminded me of Mena Suvari LOL – let’s see what else… the prince was a whiter version of Ichabod Crane (the Disney version, LOL), and one of the random dancers looked like a guy that works at the family’s restaurant… only skinnier and way younger. Ha!

Then wanted to go for sandwiches, but place was closed so ended up at a restaurant/bistro and had sirloin (? Is that Lomo? Loin? Fillet steak?) with Fungi and Gnocchi~ – Iced tea was crap though. LOL’

Then I’ve been checking my computer for virus (none!) – but I’m too lazy for backups. Ugh! Backups!! I should buy extra harddisk space instead… I asked a few weeks back about a terabyte storage system, but they said they were out. (?) – right. In the meantime, I’m filling it up even more with two Bibi (zhou bichang) films xD. Saw some clips of one of them, and almost died myself laughing. Will tell you how they were…

I also saw Public Enemies. Watch it! Now! Marion and Johnny!?! *swoon!*

Though I sweared to myself that I wouldn’t dish money to watch HP6 for obvious shipping reasons, and my not enjoying Hp6 and HP7. UMPH! – I’ve been tempted, I must admit… these past few days to actually go and check it out. Anyway!

I have made up my mind! – thanks to this

I ain’t going… I ain’t dishing my money. Maybe my time…
who knows~ depends on the time LOL
maybe soon, maybe on cable…

Obviously press get press screenings, so they can review it and properly fuzz about the film. It’s usually an invitation, you go to a certain time and place to watch it, maybe discuss it… enjoy it, and write about it telling everyone to go watch it, or just dismiss it.

It’s commonly known that you’re not to bring your cameras… or camera cellphones (?? what for, can you really record decent footage long enough in a cellphone?) – whatever. It’s just insulting to know that you’re invited somewhere but BEWARE, you will be arrested if you’re seen breaking the rules. ARRESTED! Doesn’t the police force have other things to do????

Why bother then to invite someone if you are already thinking he/she will be ripping your movie off? Are we in the assumption that all guests are there to record your movie?

In any case, I doubt CAM film versions come out of Peru, so not much need to fuzz over it at the moment. They are usually fromo outside… and I doubt CAMs are press screening made. And even then, maybe a nice “this is a screener” text would suffice.

Los Abrazos Rotos!
Me wants to watch…

I’m not much of an Almodovar watcher, but something about the project interested me. I’m thinking it’s the title of the film, it has a nice ring to it. xD – Plus, I’ve learned that Spanish Penelope PAWNS.

We’re almost about to finish up with June – still haven’t reached 20 films listed on 2009 @ IMDb… and I’m still way short on my quota to be legible on my own awards.

I thought it’d be interesting to see how this works, so I grabbed the IMDb Power Search Tool and looked for all films listed on IMDb following this criteria:

  • All films must have over 50 votes on the site (you know, just to make the list shorter)
  • I must have voted it over 6.

So I made my list of the regular categories – All acting categories, best animated feature, best director and best picture – without caring about the language they’re in. Just a reminder~~~ this year’s awards should include all categories except for Documentaries and shorts~~~

Here are the ones of the would’ve beens of films released on 2000 – Oscar 2001 –

Spanish Tongue Twisters for Japanese.

I always think Japanese people would have an easy transition to Spanish (pronunciation-wise) – and to sort of prove it, I wanted to type some tongue twisters in Spanish in Katakana~~~ LOL’
Let’s see how that goes~~~
Just a couple of them

Plus, Jugemu is wayyyyy more difficult than any of these, I think~ xD
