Weekend With The Godfather

30 August 2009 By: Marlene22 Comments

I’ve had a seemingly busy weekend that almost left me indecisive.  There’s one thing I couldn’t leave out though, which is my meeting with friends on the last Saturday of evey month.  It’s a fixed plan that my friends and me are tied up to follow, otherwise we couldn’t find a space in our almanac due to work and other priorities.  We did meet yesterday and had lunch in an Indie restaurant.  That went fine though the weather wasn’t.  We headed home earlier than usual that made hubby wonder.  I said it was too much crown in the city and the air was chilly.  But I actually had so many thoughts in my mind, like finalizing my class schedule and other demands of work.  There’s also the novel I was reading that kept me still and sitting, thank heavens I was done reading it this morning.

The best part of the weekend is when hubby and I sit and watch films after dinner.  When nothing is good on the TV, we opt to watch dvd films instead, sometimes make turns to choose which one fits the mood of the night.  Last night, I didn’t have any intention to watch long films so that I could have time for my schedule and a little blogging.  Then I couldn’t decide which one to pull from the shelf.  Not until hubby proposed the Godfather when I realized I was standing in front of the shelf, stoned and undecided.  Aye, that film is quite long so I lingered a little more, trying to run my eyes left and right.  In the end, grabbed the film and inserted the disk in the player.  It wasn’t long when we finally sat quietly with hot drinks and cookies on the coffee table.  It’s been quite sometime when I last saw the film and it’s only this time that I completely understand the story behind it.  We started to watch the part 2 of the film tonight but didn’t finish it because it was getting late and I had to do my schedule, which unfortunately until this time I hadn’t done yet.  Blame it on The Godfather!  I was tired during the day I went to take a nap after doing some house chores.  Since The Godfather is a trilogy, I have nothing to expect to watch the next weekend but the last of the series.

    Hi, Marlene! It’s a good thing that you get to meet your friends once a month. Ako nga, once in a blue moon lang kasi wala akong hilig lumabas e. LOL.

    If there’s nothing to do at home din, DVD marathon din kami ni hubby while the baby is sleeping. That’s something sweet di ba? Hehe.

    Have a blessed day po!

      Honney, yeah, nakasanayan na rin kasi namin ng mga friends ko. And we have common interest din-kumain sa ibat-ibang restaurant at maglibot sa city, hahaa!

    Indeed is nice to have scheduled a monthly meeting with your friends. About the movie i can only say that Godfather is one of the greatest trilogy.

      Sure, it is! It’s kind of social activity outside home.

      Yes, I think everyone who watched this movie would agree with you.

        Yes indeed, it is sad that many of the ppl give more priority to work and forget about friends. In definetly friends are the only thing that makes you feel good. In a way I envy you for this meeting, but i tell you what i will take your monthly meeting as an advice and i will try to set up samething similar with my friends :). Thank you for inspiration.

      And life will be dull without friends. I’m happy with this kind of arrangement with my friends, though.

    Pinauod ko iyan nuong elementary or high school pa ako. It was such a long time ago that I have forgotten when.

    Ang ganda!

      Ehh! Buti ka pa napanood mo yan nung bata ka pa ha. Pero totoo, kahit matagal na ang movie na ito ay ang sarap pa ring panoorin nang paulit-ulit.

      Btw, I took the liberty of clipping a bit of your header because you’re my top commentator for the month of August. Your link is in my sidebar.

      Congratulations! At sana’y hindi ka magsawa sa pagbibisita dito. 🙂

      My suggestion is to create a blog on the site you’re promoting. A blog is one way of gaining visitors to a site. And promote it by leaving comments to other blogs.

      Amor, yan ang contribution ng dvd sa sofa natin. Ako nga parang wala akong ganang magblog kapag di muna nakakapanood ng film. Parang naka-program na gabi-gabi yun, hehee!

      Maganda ang story ng Godfather. Kung di nga lang kay Leif di ko rin mapapanood yan, ano. 🙂
