missing movies madly

i miss watching movies. my list of last five movies seen (on the right side of this blog) remains the same list since i left from manila. this makes me wonder if i'll ever get to watch a movie anytime while i'm here in davao. i planned on watching masikip sa dibdib, but then i realized i had no one to accompany me. i've already experienced watching a movie alone, and it sucked big time (if my memory serves me right, it was save the last dance). i felt like everyone was looking at me and pointing. hee. paranoid, yes, but i felt so vulnerable at that time. i never did it ever since.

of course, this may stem from the fact that i'm always broke when i'm here back at home. there's no allowance, which is reasonable, given that i'm fed morning, afternoon, and night, and the lodging's always free. and although my parents want my brothers and me to scram while we're here, they don't really provide the necessary finances to accompany that directive. they don't expect us to go out and just window shop, do they?

besides this, though, i think my tendency to stay away from the outside world contributes greatly to my lack of davao movie experience. i've already written about my homeboyness in greater length somewhere, so i won't repeat it here.

oh well. my lack of cash and my aversion to the outside world dictates that i stay at home, and this is what i do. my movie-mad self can just go ahead and wish that something good will appear on hbo.
