holiday

Yey, it’s a long weekend once again. So, what am I gonna do during the long weekend?

As much as I want to travel somewhere, I can’t because of two reasons: no travel buddies to share accommodation expenses and insufficient budget. So I might as well catch a movie featured in the ongoing French Film Festival at Shangri-la Manila and stay at home, watch DVDs, sleep, and read a book.

French Film Festival

This year’s filmfest will run through June 17. For the screening schedule, click French Film .

I will definitely see March of the Penguins and The Perfume: Story of a Murderer. Tomorrow, I will take my nephew to see Arthur and the Invisibles. I am sure he would appreciate seeing the said animated film. Joaqui loves watching movies with us. Most of the time, he would sit beside my brother or me whenever we watch a DVD movie at home. A few weeks ago, we brought him to see Pirates 3 at SM Bacoor and he was quite behaved during the movie.

Btw, I’ve heard this year’s Fete de la Musique (a spin-off of the original, French Embassy-backed Fete) will be held on the 23rd in Malate. Both Fete and the filmfest are part of the annual French Spring Festival.

On Sunday and Monday, stay at home, watch DVDs or read a book. Mark’s sister, who is also my co-worker, lent me a novel by Susan Isaacs (Shining Through). Sunday is also my youngest brother’s birthday… so there would be some mini-celebration for it.
