Addiction na ito.....

The first time I saw the movie is Holy Wednesday midnight. Finished and LOVED it by 3AM. I've been watching it over and over again since then.

Tuesday came... I wanted the book because I know that movies with book adaptations tend to 'squeeze' everything in 1.5 to 2 hours. I dropped by National bookstore. To my surprise, there's only ONE COPY LEFT... and it's definitely destined for me... was all smiles on my way home.

I finished the book Thursday morning. If given the chance to read it without interruptions, I would have finished it in less than one day. Still on the same day, afternoon.... I was on my way to Boni via bus to have dinner with the bear and guess what's the movie the conductor played 15 minutes after I warmed my seat.... yeah you guessed it right.... still all smiles....

Friday.... I forgot to mention that I also have the e-books... all four... courtesy of my officemate. Since all we did was study, I decided to do otherwise -- I read the second book. was able to finish everything by 4AM while eating noodles at home.

Saturday... Powerbooks is like a glimpse of heaven as my eyes feasted on the pile of the other 3 books I wanted to complete the saga... I BOUGHT ALL THREE.... kaching!!!

This madness is HOT when it came out in the last quarter of 2008. I don't really care if my reactions and giggling smiles are kinda late...

But honestly speaking... if I'll look at it per se, it is really ordinary...the depth of the imagination cannot be compared with Harry Potter or the complex LOTR....it's just a love story between two different beings... a girl torn between two rival species... If this is so, then why I'm I joining the thousands (and could be millions) of ladies drooling and daydreaming over Edward Cullen? hehehe....

Maybe I'm just a sucker for romantic stories and happy endings... where the tough guy finally meets his match... where somebody would do anything on his power just to protect the person he loves... (awww...) It's actually a good break from all the realities of life...

Another thing... aside from the books, I also bought the original DVD (a two disk special with behind the scenes and exclusive interviews) and I downloaded the soundtrack...

Madness...

Letter

Dear Edward,

The first time I heard about you, I didn't bother to take a look or to even ask what the fuss is all about.

Wednesday midnight... that's when I finally met you... It was then that I fell in love anew. Since then, I can't stop thinking about you.

You seen so fierce and arrogant at first but hearing you speak gave me shivers down my spine. You sound so gentle, sweet and most of all, sincere. You look as if you could read my soul. With you I feel that I'm secured and loved.


Naaddict na ata ako sa Twilight... I have to buy and read the book.

To do the right thing.....

Sometimes, you just have to do what you've gotta do without the approval of others. There are some things where judgement should prevail above the given set of agreed upon rules. The person who exercised judgement will be the one to bore the risk.

I decided on my own.
It's my risk.
But I'll make sure that they are bound by my rules.

I just hope I did the right thing.

Before Dagupan pics.... heto muna UPDATES

One of the things that I did when I was in Dagupan is to shop for ORCHIDS... yes! while my colleague bought around 25, I bought 23 of them... in different colors (according to our suki). They come in really cheap prices (P60-65 for dendros and P95 for vandas) because first, they don't have pots and second, no flowers yet - but with sprouts. I bought a white and pink dendro with flowers and pot and it costs P130 (originally priced at P150... there goes our bargaining skills). I've never seen one before in Tagaytay, where I usually buy plants and flowers.





Tapos, yesterday, we went to Silang to check the land and harvest some bananas... e dumaan kami sa suking plant shop (Three Brothers Garden and Batinos Garden) so again, I bought ORCHIDS... again.. hahahah.... Can't help it. They're such a beauty. Spent 880 petot for Dancing Ladies (yellow), Kagawara Red Vanda and a purple Phaleonopsis.



What else? I also got my Iphone... weeeeeeee!!! Haven't put any sim on it yet but Ive doodled some stuff already. Will show pics of it soon.
