The latest apocalyptic-thriller film this 2010, Legion , features a "fallen angel" named Michael (played by Paul Bettany), who "turned himself against God" to "fight the 'forces of evil' that envelope the world", "fulfiling prophecy". A synopsis of the film is already a full plate: after God "loses faith" in humanity and decides to send his angels away, a group of people isolated in a restaurant-trailer is protected from the apocalypse happening outside by the "always-benevolent"archangel Michael, who comes to help the group and the waitress at the restaurant, pregnant with the new Messiah [Anti-Christ, anyone?]. Due to its supposed "apocalyptic" plot, many have expected thrilling special effects, like the grandma-turned-bloodthirsty-monster scenes, "demonic forces" flying in the air, and the like. However, despite its stunning effects and sturdy cast, the film received negative reviews, to qu...

Whew! What a semester it has been here in UPMin! As the Office of the University Registrar had posted 2 weeks ago, I was eager to look on the people who have achieved such recognition while pursuing their studies. I traversed through the Chancellor's List, (*congratulations to Ate Hazel to make it to the Chancellor's List!), the Dean's List, and the Honor Roll list... then unexpectedly... MY NAME IS IN THE LIST! The list says: PORIO KENNETH BERNEJAY HERMOSILLA      1.80000 Finally, of all the effort I exerted on the 1st Semester 09-10, it all had been paid off. By passing and excelling in CMSC57, AH1, AH4, SSP5, JAP10 (including PE 2 SD, although it's not part of the grade computation), I got this very good GWA. Yes, clearly, this is GOD's grace! I'm eager to improve more! Cheers for another good grades ahead. KENNETH

What's your motto when you want news? "Be the First to Know"? or "Go Beyond Borders"? That's the question of many CNN International enthusiasts when CNNI rebranded last September 2009. CNN International is the channel for international audiences and is the sister network of US-based CNN Domestic, the channel mainly for US/Canada audiences.

Sometimes I have to think it over... Sometimes I have to depend on my perception... Sometimes I have to confuse myself... But, in a time of desperation of fulfilling the vision, I HAVE TO MOVE ON! I have to go on with a persevering heart! I should never fail. I should never give up. MOVE ON! MOVE ON! KENNETH

This year 2009, ASL was in its version 3.0. This year of my stellar life was extraordinary for me as a casual blogger, as a UP student, as a family man, and as a Christian. The year of the LORD, two thousand and nine, was an extraordinary year - full of hopes, revelations, inspirations, failures, sorrows and meditations. Every experience of that year took me a leading that I should move on, never be bothered by these past experiences - for I have faith that in the future... I will succeed. Here are some random happenings of 2009: I am OFFICIALLY of LEGAL AGE.  ASL took a new transparent look for its version 3. Lord of the Harvest Christian Community was in its Year of Conquest.  My final days of my Second Year in UPMin were inspiring - finding hope in taking Mathematics in a very innovative way.
