True, Kristen was very lovable as Bella Swan in Twilight but how would someone take away the character from the personality when she accidentally dropped her popcorn award! :)

It may have just “Twilight” but it has already eclipsed all the others in the 2009 MTV Movie Awards when it brought home a lot of golden popcorns for:

Best Movie, Twilight

Best Female Performance, Kristen Stewart

Breakthrough Performance, Robert Pattinson

Best Kiss, Robert Pattinson and Cam Gigandet

2009 MTV Movie Winners

One of my fave moments was when Jim Carey was accepting his Best Comedic Performance award. It was hilarious.

This event will surely make a good prelude to New Moon, which is the second book in the Twilight saga.

My Life Joys Celebrates One Year!

29 May 2009 In: Uncategorized

It has been a year of blogging!

To all those who took time to read whatever is published in My Life Joys, Thank You.
Since My Life Joys started, it was not easy at first for a non-writer and non-IT to write articles and learn the technicalities of blogging.

And yet the comments and emails that you sent served as assurance that despite the trying times, we still make the most of what life has to offer and just enjoy the ride.

Share the Love, Share the Joy!

Pho24, Vietnamese Noodles

28 May 2009 In: Food


What makes office lunches a time well spent? For working people like me, this is an hour to rush… Does it seem enough to enjoy?  Sometimes it’s not just the food that makes up this sixty minutes of break from tons of work load but also the people whom I spent it with. So for today why not have the best of both worlds right?  Have a good meal and spend it with a dear friend. Cecil invited me to Pho24 Vietnamese Noodles in Power Plant Mall, Rockwell and it was such a good discovery.

It has been a long time since I had Vietnamese dishes. At first I was thinking, “Oh well, what should I expect but spring rolls and togue (bean sprouts)… just like expecting siew mai or siomai in Chinese restaurants, maki or sushi in Japanese restaurants, or pasta and pizza and Italian restaurants.”  True enough there are togue and spring rolls, but they were not just togue and spring rolls.  This particular dining experience in Pho24 has given me a good impression of Vietnamese dishes.  It was more than just a Pho, which is thinly sliced meat in noodles soup or fancy spring rolls in rice wrappers.

Onion, Basil, Parsley, Chili, Bean Sprouts, Lemon Wedge

Yes, the world stopped spinning in less than six minutes. Then the last ten seconds, there was a sudden movement when almost all Filipinos jumped in victorious cheers as Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao won the title for the IBO Light Welter Weight division that Ricky “Hitman” Hatton as the current title holder.

In the battle dubbed as East Meets West, Pacman won by knocking out Hitman in the last ten seconds of 2nd Round.  In the first round, Pacman has knocked down Hitman twice. From there, many Filipinos, and later even Manny admitted, that the game is Manny’s.

In every Manny Pacquiao game, crime rate is at the lowest (or zero) during the show time.  Filipinos in all walks of life set aside their differences and become one in watching, praying, and cheering for the “Pambansang Kamao.”  It is such a privilege for the Pinoys of this generation to witness such historical milestone in a sport where another Pinoy is the Pound for Pound Champ.  Even Bob Arum, a professional boxing promoter, has claimed that he has not seen such combination of talent and speed that Pacman has.

 

To Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and Team Pacquiao (headed by Coach Freddie Roach) who has been dedicating every game to Filipinos worldwide, Congratulations!
