    Trixia Salonga

    Hi! I'm Trixia and welcome to my slice of life. I'm not your average blogger, I'm a hybrid of multi-dimensional shoujo, a rare breed of legal loli and a unique original producer of ideas and inspiration. My path goes on the other side of the road which is less traveled, where thrill and excitement rests. This blog holds my inner thoughts, experiences, opinions and out-of-the-ordinary theories which I keep as a journal of my life's highlights.

    After succumbing to my free pizza loss, I was invited by sir Donn to attend Big byte Northern food festival, I got sick that day and caught colds, but was able to recover a day after by taking vitamins, ginger rice porridge and onions to purify the air.

    TRAVEL

    We arrived at 5:00 am to Shell Ayala north bound, at 4:30 - 5:00 am meetup, sir Donn provided us a free transport with them apparently, they were still waiting for the last passengers.

    we arrived at 7:30 am, and noticed that the morning program was finished , we went straight to the registration area and food area, They gave us food souvenirs as part of the media.

    Upon hearing of the girls in town cheering for an awaited event written on the wall, she couldn't help but sighed, she knew she never had a chance to join the ball.

    She passed by every girls in town, trying out new dresses that they bought, excited and giggly. 

    When she went home,she was greeted by her family with gifts, it was her birthday.

    She opened them and she was teary eyed when saw this:

    This lolli dainty stockings is from her sister Ianne.


    These brushes given to her by the most loving couple her brother Tawey and sister Olive, how she wishes she could go to the overseas and give them my hugs and kisses because they deserve it.

    Her Sweet brother Robin and Mama gave her a piece to show the girl, fairest of them all. Incredibly unique piece coming all the way from dumaguete, an amber mirror.

    She is more than thankful and felt very blessed, these things can help her to dress up for the ball.

    KNOCK KNOCK





    Warning:
    The movie is for 18+ only. Please respect


    THE UNEXPECTED BLESSING


    God has given a lot of surprises to me despite of my being very lax in my physical health lately, he kept on reminding me that I should never let go of my dreams no matter how blurred it may seem. I was contacted that I have won tickets for the special screening of the Knock Knock by Keanu Reeves. i thought i was dreaming so I kept on reading the email and contacted the sender, confirmed and set the date.

    I admit that I was being very lax, in mostly my diet and health, it was quite the rush 'again' to keep in shape. I received the note a day before the screening and terribly no time to at least ready my self. I have watched horror to suspense movies everyday, if most have known that I loved watching them big time.















    THE RIDE

    The screening held at Glorietta 4 cinema 3, admittedly long travel from my place, I took a bus and it did took 5 hours ride, as expected with edsa traffic.

    When I arrived at the venue it was already 6:30 pm and waited a few minutes to meet mam Honey for the tickets. she had beautiful red hair and was very kind to us.

    KNOCK KNOCK MOVIE REVIEW

    Knock Knock is a 2015 Chilean-American erotic horror film directed by Eli Roth, who also co-wrote the script with Guillermo Amoedo and Nicolas Lopez. The film stars Keanu Reeves, Lorenza Izzo, and Ana de Armas. The film is scheduled to be released on October 9, 2015, by Lionsgate Premiere.

    The show started 8:00 pm after the Philippine hymn.


    What would you do if you find two dripping wet ladies come knockin' on your door for help? Would you let them in and stay?

    I watched the trailer months ago and it hit a big interest, apparently it is about a married man, starred by Keanu Reeves, and one day he was knocked in his house by two voluptous ladies, asking for temporary shelter, eventually he became friends with them. That morning, he thought the ladies would be gone but to his demise they didn't, and that's when all the fun turned into a nightmare for him as he tried to convince them to go home.




    CHARACTER REVIEW



    Mr. Keanu's acting has surprised me seeing how he was able to perform an act different from his former movies.



    The two leading ladies for me are the shining stars of this film, admittedly Evan(Keanu's) wife and children looked unconvincing in their roles, which I also see as scripted and lack of emotions, but the two ladies, Bel and Genesis played by Ana de Armas and Lorenza Izzo are definite eye and emotion catchers. They brought life to the characters. I also would love to give out how hot Genesis here, she's got one of the most tantalizing eyes. 



    THE SENSUAL PART
    There are many parts of the movie where it depicted intense sensuality which is not for minors, it is the 'spicy' part of the movie and from what I saw they we're able to play it well, the camera angles gave good censorship.


    Bel played by Ana de Armas looks like Marilyn Monroe in this movie 


    The twist of this movie is surprising and leaves a hang over haha~ actually the movie pointed out incredible point of views about marriage and fidelity and left lessons in life worth keeping for, it will not dissapoint you as this film gave one of the craziest and unique plot in a suspense movie.


    IMPACT ON VIEWERS

    The impact of the movie is well observed at the ladies after the screening, to some, I noticed that they had exhibited a more playful attitude, although im not certain if that is their usual behavior, but most of them I see became very cheerful.

    I recommend to all that wants that thrill, suspense with a mix of sensuality, humuor and mind boggling situational analysis, the perfect ingredient for that suspense nights!
    Knock Knock's premiere night is on October 9th for United States theaters and October 20th for Philippine Cinemas, so watch out for that and make sure to set an alarm to your calendars!

           A curious noble girl begins her journey to see a whole world around her, 






    she jots down all her adventures in her diary, leaves and hids it in places where no one could find, leaving a mark to know where she placed them.    




    Everytime she goes out in a journey, she writes and writes then hids them, little did she knew a man was able to find one piece of her diary,






    Each diary leading to another destination where to find the next chapter.


    The man collected the pieces of the diary and bound them together,




    He gave it to the town's publishing company together spreading a news to held a great ball and invite all noble girls in town.

    . Wednesday, September 30, 2015 .

    There's a newly opened convenience store in town and I can't wait to check it out. I googled the name of the store and it had it's roots in Japan.
     I went inside and they had this minimalistic interiors, all white walls and incredibly powerful aircons.

    It looks like a typical local convenience store but it had less customers at the time I arrived.
     It was lunch time and I ordered the : Fried Chicken with unlimited rice for P64.00

    The taste of the chicken was salty but crunchy and everytime I drank water i felt bloated.

    I usually eat a lot of rice but since it was salty it definitely terminated my appetite.
     Customers seemed to love their ice cream maybe I will try this the next time.
