Todo Sobre Mi Madre Quotes

Ever since I took Spanish in summer, I have developed a keen interest on Spanish culture and cinema. I have already watched several Spanish movies mostly of Pedro Almodovar's. So far, the film "Todo Sobre Mi Madre" is my favorite, perhaps the best crafted Spanish movie of all time. It is a story of a mother, who was pregnant by a transvestite and her journey starting from loss of her son, a reunion with a long time and socially abused transgender friend, taking charge of a pregnant nun and working for a lesbian couple. I have listed below some memorable quotes that have strongly confounded me.

Well, as I was saying, it costs a lot to be authentic, ma'am. And one can't be stingy with these things because you are more authentic the more you resemble what you've dreamed of being"



 "I'm not a whore. I've been fucked around a lot, but I'm not a whore"

The name "Janet Napoles" may serve you headaches these days. Thanks to her, our local traffic dilemma has attracted lesser attention. Let me tell you a story about my everyday commuter experience, which I interchangeably refer to as my "religious devotion" My class starts at 8:30 am every Tuesday and Thursday and 10:00 am for  Wednesdays and Fridays.  As you may have known, I am commuting from Taytay to UP Diliman everyday. I have to take 17 kilometers of ride to get there and another 17 to return, totalling 34 kilometers of travel everyday.

Travelling from Taytay to Cainta is relatively fast, with minor incidence of traffic in Tikling,...

Map Project

Beinvinido to my blog again! So I was actually busy all this week finishing my academic projects and other research papers. Part of the requirements in Cartography class is to create a map of your choice and I have decided to create something that could  show the relationship between average life expectancy and average income. I wonder if ever high-income provinces generally have longer life expectancy considering vast resources they have to pay for medical fees. I worked hard to come up with these maps so I am now giving you the opportunity to come closer and take a look at my map project! I like to hear your comments below. Enjoy,
