Laugh trip sobra!! :D it's about 2 hours long.. pero di mo mapapansin sa sobrang entertaining ng movie na 'to..

watch niyo nalang.. hindi talaga sayang yung $$ na ibabayad nio sa movies. :)

This is a sequel to the movie Step Up that was released in 2006.

I wasn't too comfortable seeing a different, well, cast. But as the movie went on, it got a little better. I still think they could have done much better picking out and choosing whoever was supposed to play what..

The guy from part 1 had a teeny tiny part (of course, he was dancing!). It was about a girl; Andie, who screwed up hella times that she was gonna be sent to Texas with her aunt. And she lived in Baltimore (like you grew up in Manila and will be sent to Surigao or something like that)

So of course, she was given a second chance and went to school; MSA. So then that way, she'd be a pro at dancing and straighten her life out.. She got accepted. Then she had a hard time tryna fit in and all that. She met some friends and built her own crew as she was kicked out of her real crew: 410. With the help of a prince charming, I forgot his name, this all happened. At first, they got hella embarassed at the club and lost hope then eventually, got their confidence back.. Blah blah! They practiced some more and got better.. Then some words of wisdom here and there and that's it.

The Streets: it's like a dance competition of crews that basically grew up in the streets..

I'm not a big fan of the plot but I must give it to them. I like the last part when they were all dancin' and showin' 'em what they got..

It's pretty shallow but the dance performances were really good.. well, at least the last part..

.. and since I'm sleepy. I must say that this movie could wait until it comes out on DVD or Blue Ray or what not.. It's not worth the $$. But then again, it's just my opinion..

You should still see it for yourself.. I was checkin the reviews they have for this and it had mixed reviews and different opinion-- but like they say, you have to experience it first hand to be able to agree or disagree with what I think.

Ya feel me? LOL!

This was recommended by the waiter. I don't know how you call it. (Some kinda review there huh?)

Anyways, its an appetizer: a platter of calamari, crab cakes, spinach salad with a dip on the side.

I had Maine Lobster Pasta as the main course. Mouth-watering. D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!! :) Good enough for sharing but I had it all to myself. oink!


Soooooo goood! :) The place is a little pricey but it's all worth it! I would definitely, definitely go back!

After taking my dad to the airport, my brother's girlfriend: Janice wanted to get something to eat. She recommended Tribu-- a Filipino restaurant.

(Tribu sounds like a brand name for slippers!) I was curious. There really isn't alot of Filipino restaurants around here that I liked that made it all seem like I was at a carinderia or turo-turo or simply a Filipino restaurant.

The place had a feel of like being at Dencio's or Leslie's in Tagaytay considering the cold weather. It had the same ambiance but I was not totally impressed by the set-up.

So I had sisig and Bagoong rice. Boy, it's even better than the ones they serve in the PI. So much better too compared to Goldilocks (Concord), Max's, Dj's Bibingkahan (Vallejo) or Gerry's Grill (Union City).

Definitely something you should try! Price isn't that bad either. (Usually, it's a rip-off when you want the native food).

So there~ Enjoy!

If you're desperate, try Trader Ming's Pad Thai (you can buy 'em at any Trader Joe's store). It literally takes just two minutes to prep.

The taste is not bad either. It even has those chunks of peanuts. Pretty interesting. Almost (but not quite) tastes like the real thing.

Of course, my heart will forever be loyal to the Pad-See-Ew but hey, I'm under time pressure here. (I went to Target for my lunch hour and completely forgot to eat!) It was the only thing I could find in my drawer. :)

Try it.
