Movie Review: Capt. America

We heard great reviews of the film and were really excited to see the film. What's not to like? Captain America and Black Widow are back on the big screen. Add in the arrival of the not so mysterious villain (since we all know who it is) and the stage is set for action!

Battle Inside the Flow

"There is no other way! If we are to leave this place, we must break down the walls. Each of you find a spot. We must work together and put pressure all around the area. Welcome the heat! That means that soon it will be time! Be ready to move. We go as soon as the blood begins to flow!"

Whatever it is that causes the pain of dysmenorrhea, I wish it would be permanently leave and not replenish it's army every month. It HURTS!!!!! OTC pain medicine and hot water bottles only help ease the pain a little. The best solution is still sleep - which you can't do when there is work to be done.

Subic Trip

We decided to go on a road trip and take the Titan (our Chevrolet Trailblazer) on it's first run. Off we went to Subic with our friends. Simple plan: go, explore and come back. It having been years since I was last there, I had to do some research. There were quite a number of articles that came up but this proved the most helpful: 5 Restaurants To Try In Subic.

I am so thankful for technology. Never having driven there, it paid to have my smartphone with data plan and Google maps. Not being a native and not wanting to have to ask for directions unless absolutely necessary, Google Maps was a must. It only failed once. That was when I used the phone for its basic function - calling!

Soccer Mom

It's official! I am now a Soccer mom. I was very happy when my son told me he wants to learn how to play soccer. I was even happier that he and his dad found the school he can learn from. Of course I still had to be the one to make the calls but that was okay with me.

When the coach asked me how he developed an interest, I told him it was because he watches Detective Conan with me. He asked me what that was. I had the joy of talking about my favorite anime. I told him about Detective Conan movie 16: The Eleventh Striker. I hope the kids enjoy the movie. I get the feeling they'll be watching it soon.
