Welcome Readers!

Welcome to the Mystic Blog of the only Mystic Nymph! I hope you have a blast reading my thoughts, and I hope you drop by again!

I'll let you in a little revelation about my favorite usernames in my virtual sites. First is about my Mikimoto Angel pen name. Mikimoto is a famous brand of pearl accessories in America. I first saw that brand in Vogue Magazine. I got mesmerized by that label, and I thought of using it. I just added Angel from my name "Angela". Thus, the formation of Mikimoto Angel.

For my other pen name Mystic Nymph, the word mystic really came from the show Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog. I used to be so hooked to that show. I am also obsessed with mythologies, and nymphs are mythical creatures depicted as beautiful young women who are considered as guardians of objects and places in nature. Thus, the evolution of Mystic Nymph.

My Top 10 Films of 2010

I don't really watch movies. I can actually just count those films I've watched in the cinema, and even on DVDs with my fingers. I don't know why, but I kind of feel uneasy whenever I sit in front of the TV or big screen, just doing nothing but watch the scenes pass by. I don't feel comfortable when I'm not moving. Weird, eh? That's probably one of the behaviors I got from my mother. And because I'm not a movie freak, there are only a few films that got my attention for the year 2010. Let me begin with my list, which is not in particular order.


SCOTT PILGRIM vs THE WORLD



This movie is so EPIC! I love it because of the humor, the music and the superb cast! Ramona Flowers was really pretty and MYSTIC! At first I thought she was too cool for Scott, but when he defeated Ramona's SEVEN DEADLY X's he became way cooler than Ramona! Michael Cera definitely rocks. GO Sex Bob-Omb! This movie's Official Soundtrack is an A+ too! Best Sex Bob-Omb performance (for me) was when they sang Threshold to ward off the Katayanagi Twins (Ramona's 6th Evil X)

Quotable Quote:

Scott to Ramona: I'm in "lesbians" with you (he couldn't say the other L word.)

KICK ASS




One of the best action-packed films I've ever watched. This movie was the reason why I began to love superhero/action-comedy films. This is actually not intended to be watched by kids because of its profane and violent contents. Good thing I'm already 20, cause I am a big fan of Hit-Girl! Chloe Moretz played the role really well. She acted and spoke like she's not a child. I envy her guns, especially the BAZOOKA! :-D

Quotable Quote:

Kick-Ass (Dave Lizewski): Even with my metal plates and my fucked up nerve endings, I gotta tell you, that hurt! But not half as much as the idea of leaving everything behind.

DEAR JOHN




I almost cried watching Savannah and David's love story. It's a tear-jerker I should say! Having a special someone who is actually an army is hard. It's like your heart never stops pounding every minute as long as I know he's in the danger zone. It's also difficult to keep up with a long distance relationship. That may be the reason why Savannah decided to give up on John. One of the best things of this movie is, the soundtrack. It's so GOOD! You will never regret downloading them. Amanda Seyfried sings so well, and Channing Tatum is just so HOT!

Quotable Quote:

Savannah to John: No matter how many years go by, I know one thing to be as true as ever was - I'll see you soon then.

EASY A




This was the second and last film I watched on the big screen. I was with my friend, Maxine, when we had a doze of this adorable chick flick. This is such a hilarious film! I bought a DVD, and watched this three times at home. I even want to have a Scarlet Letter A on my wardrobe just like Olive Penderghast and Hester Prynne. That's how I'm addicted to Easy A! Another proof of my intense devotion is I'm now loving "the worst song ever" -- Natasha Bedingfield's Pocket Full of Sunshine. Crazy, isn't it?

Quotable Quote:

Olive Penderghast: Relax. Jesus. What is with you gays? Are you really that repulsed by lady parts? What do you think I have down there? A gnome? (Haha!)

EAT PRAY LOVE




One of my favorite Holliwood actresses is Julia Roberts. My Mom influenced me to like her. I've seen her box-office movies before, and she didn't really fail my standards of a must-watch chick flick star. Eat Pray Love is the best film for all the heart-broken women out there. You have to have time for yourself in order to love again. The best scenes in this film are actually shot in Italy where world-class cuisines are served. Your mouth will really water and all!

Quotable Quote:

"I do not need to love you to prove that I love myself." This was spoken by Liz Gilbert to her Balinese boyfriend. :-)

STEP UP 3D



This is way better than the second installment of Step UP, although I could say that the girl in Step Up 2 danced better than the girl in Step Up 3D. What I love about this film is that, eventhough I'm not a dance fanatic, The Pirate's move and groove make me want to dance as well. I love Moose! He may be thin, but his dancing capability is exceptional. He's a great dancer! The soundtrack is also perfect for some club party mood.

Quotable Quote:

Moose: People dance because dance can change things. One move, can bring people together. One move, can make you believe like there's something more. One move, can set a whole generation free.

SPLICE




We watched this film for our NSTP-CWTS class. One thing I realized when we watched this is that, the phenotype (physical appearance) of an organism is equal to the organism's genes, environment and the interaction of the genes and environment. I learned that from our Biodiversity class. I just related it to Splice.

Quotable Quote:

Clive Nicoli: Why the fuck did you make her in the first place? Huh? For the betterment of mankind? You never wanted a normal child because you were afraid of losing control.

TOY STORY 3




I also watched this on cinema with Maxine. We were so carried away with the scenes, that we never talked the whole time. We also tried to stop our tears from falling, that our throat ended up hurting. I love the animation as always. Too bad we didn't get to watch it on IMAX. This is my ultimate favorite childhood movie of all time! Woody and Buzz Lightyear are the best tandem!

Quoatable Quote:

Andy: Now Woody, he's been my pal for as long as I can remember. He's brave, like a cowboy should be. And kind, and smart. But the thing that makes Woody special, is he'll never give up on you... ever. He'll be there for you, no matter what.

LEAP YEAR




I love this film's tagline: Anna planned to propose to her boyfriend on February 29th. This is not her boyfriend. The narration made this film different from others. Even the smallest of details are relayed by the story-teller. Amy Adams and Matthew Goode look good together. They made a good couple in this movie -- an outgoing and fun manly man and a serious and professional lady. I also love the story line and the sceneries. Ireland is such a wonderful place with all the green grasslands and blue mountains. Perfect for nature lovers! I wanna be there someday.

Quotable Quote:

Bride: May you never steal, lie, or cheat, but if you must steal, then steal away my sorrows, and if you must lie, lie with me all the nights of my life, and if you must cheat, then please cheat death because I couldn't live a day without you. Cheers!

CHLOE




Because I love Amanda Seyfried, I didn't hesitate to watch Chloe. Her role here is much different from other roles she played. She's darkly erotic here compared to her sweet and girly characters in Mamma Mia and Dear John. I love the twist of this movie. Definitely, a must-see. It's a great mature movie indeed!

Quotable Quote:

Chloe: I try to find something to love in everybody. Even if it's a small thing. Something about the way someone smiles. There's always something, there has to be. I try to make myself generous. I do things I don't want to do. I... I think about what not to criticize. And the strangest things come back to me.

PS: I still haven't watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, Prince of Persia and Sorcerer's Apprentice. :-(
