bite me
Twilight the movie was plagued by bad hair, awkward silent moments, and sometimes barren-looking sets, but I liked it more than the book. The reason, in four words: less mush, more cuties.
In the book, there were numerous “stay away from me I’m dangerous” lines, endless arguments about who loves the other more, and more references [...]

>> “The Women” was actually kind of tolerable, and there were lots of funny moments if you choose not to watch it with a very critical eye. I’m still not a big fan of chick flicks–or chick lit, for that matter–but it was fun. I think it’s mostly because of the company; pretty much every [...]

Kirk and I tried out this neat place in Tomas Morato, “Kitchen of Cakes and Coffee.” You can pretty much tell what it’s all about from the name, I know, and I wish the owners had been more imaginative too, but the place was really nice.
Kirk had a quarter-pounder, which he gave four out of [...]

I saw this Australian film “Clubland” with Frank last night; it’s part of the Australian film festival currently showing in Gateway. At first I was only mildly interested–the plot, about a shy 21-year-old whose perfect romance is blocked by family problems, seemed too normal, and I like stuff that are out-of-this-world. Or at the very [...]

I’m in love with Jimmy Page again. Dear God, why wasn’t I born in 50s London (or San Francisco, but that’s another story)?
See, I finally managed to buy “Hammer of the Gods,” that Led Zeppelin bio by Stephen Davis that I had previously blogged about. I haven’t listened to Led Zep in what feels like [...]

Philippine cinemas better screen this film or I will sue!
Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is a comedy about two people thrust together for one hilarious, sleepless night of adventure in a world of mix tapes, late-night living, and, live, loud music. Nick (Michael Cera) frequents New York’s indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and [...]

>> I saw a Led Zeppelin biography for P95 on BookSale tonight, “Hammer of the Gods.” But I let it go. I’m still debating within myself whether I regret the decision.
>> I’ve finished the entire Twilight series. It’s okay. I don’t like Renesmee, the half-vampire kid who grows at an alarmingly fast rate and is [...]

we are mere mortal girls
I have officially been reduced into a mindless, screaming fan-girl.
I have finished the first three books in the Twilight series,with one book per day. Yes, I can read that fast. It’s both a gift and a curse.
Anyway, I think the series is overrated. I think Stephenie Meyer is no J.K. Rowling; Meyer can’t create a [...]

riding in buses
I have a new thing: riding in buses. It’s something I developed this week; see, I was feeling particularly blue when I left Congress last Tuesday, so I wanted a nice, long relaxing ride home where I can just sort out my thoughts (I didn’t) and stare off into space (I did). I was also [...]

i want the batpod
So it’s 11:00 p.m., and I just got home from (finally) watching The Dark Knight with RJ. I’m glad I no longer feel so out of the loop, heehee. Talk to me, I’m cool again!
We had dinner and lounged around the mall for more than two hours because the movie’s screening time was at 7.
Okay, [...]
