I was supposed to join my brothers for a swimming party at their Mariana Heights condo in New Manila, but we opted for Plan B (i.e. they go swimming and just come to my house for lunch) instead.
Didn't leave the house today and just watched a lot of downloaded television and one movie, La Vie En Rose (aka La Mome), a sad-but-not-depressing movie about French singer Edith Piaf. The film reminded me of Chaplin, not only for the way the film jumps back and forth w/ the timelife but also w/ lead actress' Marion Cotillard's uncanny resemblance to Piaf. I think they shaved her hair above the forehead slightly to match Piaf's hairline (as well as her eyebrows).
As w/ keeping w/ our President's tradition of moving holiday dates for longer weekends, Bataan Day was moved from April 9 (Wednesday) to today. Not that I have plans to go out or anything. Am looking for a venue for the b-day party on Saturday, though. ;)
