Super Mario Brothers Costume

Just like Kaye of Random WAHM Thoughts, I am rekindling my youth. For the past few days, er, weeks, I am playing SUPER MARIO BROTHERS on my kids’ DS Lite. It started out as helping my kids through a certain world.. and now I can sense some addiction in me (give me that DS!!) The NEW SUPER MARIO BROTHERS in DS Lite is very fun. It was easy and you can actually cheat on the game to have, like, 50 lives! You can jump from one world to another. It’s so awesome I can’t stop!!!

It is not a surprise that when I saw these SUPER MARIO BROTHERS costume, I fell! Since my first born and my second born looks like a twin, these costume would fit them both! I WANT IT!! If only it’s not that expensive (but you can buy it for me) and shipping won’t take forever.. Is there any kind soul out there?

Anyway, I also heard that this is gonna be the next big thing in movies! I heard SUPER MARIO BROTHERS are set for the big screen. EYE CAN’T WAIT!

TCP: Silent Hill

Another movie for this week! I am really loving this meme. I really enjoy doing movie reviews or sharing to you guys how different (and Kaye can attest to that) my taste is. For this week the theme is Suspense or Thriller movie.

Silent Hill is a game turned movie. A lot of gamers who are very familiar with Silent Hill have a lot of things to say. First the story is not what it supposed to be or something to that effect. And as it with any movie coming from a book or a game or a series, the first of its kind is always the better. I don’t really mind as I am not familiar with the game. I only learned about this being a game after I finished watching it and I am looking for answers and all. I am always like that, after or before a movie, I could not stop digging for more information.

The movie Silent Hill is about a mother (Rose) and her adopted child, Sharon. Sharon is notorious for her sleep walking and the constant mention of Silent Hill while sleeping. Finally, Rose decided to take Sharon on a trip to the mysterious place. She wants to make an end to what is it that’s missing in Sharon’s life.

Arriving at Silent Hill, Sharon run away and Rose was greeted with mysterious events. A siren, a burned like figures haunting her. Finally another human being came to the rescue, a police officer. Together they discover the truth behind the mysterious place. Together they uncovered the past of her adopted daughter. There is a dark, dark secret that surrounds it all.

Meanwhile, her husband came down looking for Rose and their kid. It was later revealed that Rose, Sharon and the police officer was in a different dimension. It was a scene where the husband was roaming in Silent Hill, in a different Silent Hill and they almost bumped to each other. The husband discovered the history of the place, of where Sharon came from and how dark the place was.

Later it was revealed that Sharon came from Alessa. A very young and innocent but powerful girl. A girl who experienced nothing but worse from the townsfolk. A child who found solace in a very dangerous creature. Sharon was part of Alessa, the innocent Alessa. Now, Rose must face the challenge of saving her innocent Sharon and helping Alessa to finish her business with the townsfolk.

Sorry guys if this took so long, this is really my favorite movie of all time. More than a suspense film it also capture the love of a mother to her child, may it be her own or not. The movie was really captivating, story aside, the effects was really great. This a horror film that I really really love. It was not scary and to top it all it does not make me cringe (unlike Hostel and the likes..ugh!)

Let’s Talk About Partial Hysterectomy

From my article about Tubal Ligation, a very nice lady commented her views about it (it’s Aria!). From here comment, I can sense some discomfort on her part. I researched more and asked around about their Tubal Ligation experiences. I am still gathering information, maybe I will post a first hand information by Friday. I was curious about Partial Hysterectomy (again thanks to Aria). And being a curious cat, I cannot let this one pass. So indulge with me as again I flood your MWF nights with endless medical terms and illustrations.

Let us first define HYSTERECTOMY. It is surgical operation where in a Gynecologist removes the uterus and the cervix. (ouch!) Removal of the uterus can mean only one thing, no more childbirth so this can be considered as a permanent birth control. My research brought me to believe that Hysterectomy is not mainly done to gain permanent birth control. In most cases it is done to prevent cancer cell build ups. In most cases it is done because something came up (like placenta praevia) or for transmen (sex transition to become a man) as part of their sexual transformation.

How about Partial Hysterectomy? Literally, partial means not whole or just a part, so it follows that when you speak of Partial Hysterectomy it means partial removal of the uterus.

I have to stop right now because I am cringing… sorry guys. I can’t be a doctor! waaah!!!

If you have more information about Hysterectomy or Partial Hysterectomy, feel free to comment on the ~~grossest~~ technical (medical) way. On Wednesday, let’s take a look on another permanent birth control, and this time it’s for the boys! yay!
