I am done with Stephenie Meyer's second book this morning. So, how was it? Hmmm.. the experience is far from that of Twilight, in a sense that they now tackle and focus on conflicts and problems. We are done with the "kilig" phase of Edward-Bella relationship, though I admit that I still get "kilig" everytime Edward professes his love to Bella. But, I would still say, stupid Edward, stupid.
Edward did disappoint me in some ways:
- I could not believe that Edward can leave Bella just like that. All the while that he was gone, I was expecting a more valid reason from him.
- I thought that he was just watching her after all those months.. and I even believe at some point that it was really he that was talking to Bella.
And maybe, a lot of people would also say that, Bella is also so stupid not to totally fall in love with Jacob. Well, she's just being human. And not to mention, totally in love too...
One thing is for sure, I got "fascinated" with the Cullen cars... the Volvo, Audi, BMW, Mercedez, Porsche, etc... Well, if you read the books, you will know why they love those fast and expensive cars and why they can afford, too. Hehehe. Do I envy them coz I can't afford even those Ferrari parts? I am no way envious really. Just simply dazzled by those vampires. :)
So, what's next?
Eclipse.
And I can wait. *convincing mode*

Plans changed these past days. I took this unplanned trip because our baby (well, baby no more actually) got sick.
A lot of things happened on my way here, but, I will probably create another entry for that. I am actually busy right now with rubber stamps, coloring book, barbie dolls, and a lot more. And not to mention, I am getting to know Jacob Black. :) So, these things occupy my time lately.
Tata for now!

i wish i could write things that excites me or at least i could write something interesting tonight, but, i am just so tired now. i think emotional stress are more draining than those who are into some tiring physical work.
I don't like getting angry, getting mean to people, and being unappreciative with the beautiful things that surrounds me. I feel awful. These things drain me to the core. I could stay silent in one corner though, but still, battling these negative emotions silently would still make me feel down.
life is unfair. life is beautiful. i have to compromise those two again.
i think i need a dose of my medicine... travel, and relax. A nice resort would be very nice.. where international travel insurance is not needed. hmmm....

went out last Friday to celebrate Bontic's birthday... well, without her actually. Thanks for the treat B! Super pinangga jud mi nimo. :) Wish you were here to celebrate your birthday with us... and we also wish that we are there to celebrate it with you.
blowing the candle for you... wish granted daw! :D
The food was yummy... and diet was forgotten for awhile (as if, nag diet! hahah!).. So now, I am reading some Lipofuze reviews to help me get rid of these fats. And yes, no beer this time! Yohooo!! It's been months... this is a success! Hahaha! Though no beer means, more budget needed since cocktail drinks are more pricey than beer. Hehe. Good thing, we don't need to think of budget last Friday since we were well funded ;)
Thanks again B! Happy Birthday! Mwaah!

How can I decide what's right? When you're clouding up my mind Can't win your losing fight all the time Not gonna ever own what's mine When you're always taking sides You wont take away my pride No not this time Not this time
How did we get here? I use to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I think I know
The truth is hiding in your eyes And its hanging on your tongue Just boiling in my blood, But you think that I can't see What kind of man that you are If you're a man at all Well, I will figure this one out on my own (I'm screaming "I love you so..." But my thoughts you can't decode)
How did we get here? I use to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I think I know
Do you see what we've done? We're gonna make such fools of ourselves Do you see what we've done? We're gonna make such fools of ourselves
How did we get here? I use to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I use to know you so well
I think I know I think I know There is something that I see in you It might kill me I want it to be true

This all started when I had my DVD marathon back at home. I got somehow disconnected with the world everytime my eyes and ears are glued in my laptop. Sometimes, I find myself walking around NY city and lovin my life, while living in my dream apartment.
That was then before I met Edward. And Bella.
Before I fell inlove with Forks' weather and it's gloomy place.
And since then, I craved to know them more.
I know this is all old news. I know, I know... I am very much far behind from the other "crazy" fans out there. Some might got it over already, but, I am willing to take my time.
Or not. Coz I can't wait to get hold of these books...
Saw the 4 books at the National bookstore yesterday and wonder, am I willing to be 2,700PhP poorer? I would want to wish this for my birthday, but, my birthday is still months away. :( For the meantime, I am happy with the e-books courtesy of Mayen. And to my friends, yes, you can certainly buy me those books as your birthday gift since I formally accept birthday gifts starting today. :)
All I want to do at this moment is get hold of that book, lock myself in an airconditioned room, and get lost in Edward's world.
Hmm... I think I have to stop talking(or writing) before I'll sound crazier than I am now. Hehe.

For an active blogger like me, it's been awhile that I've been silent in my blog. The whole week was mostly spent at home, either facing my laptop, watched movies that I missed the past months/year, or facing in front of our tv stand. And of course, attended my Uncle's burial and the daily prayer.
So, here's the list of movies that I watched:
My bestfriend's girl
Bedtime stories
Twilight
Role Model
Quantum of Solace
The Women
27 Dresses
High School Musical 3
Sex and the City The Movie
... and still plan to watch more after I'll publish this. By the way, who has a Twilight book? Can I borrow it please? I want to know Edward and Bella more.. Bitin ko sa love story. Hehehe.
And this Easter, we also welcome the new addition of our family. Meet Hershey, a Dachshund, courtesy of Ian.
It's a perfect timing that I haven't planned for a lakwatsa this Holy week. (yeah, because I am broke. hehe) In the first place, this week is not for lakwatsa, though luxury hotel rooms are all fully booked by now. It's a perfect time for reflection, and bonding with family.
i am getting ready for a trip home tomorrow. It will be a hectic schedule since we will be attending my Uncle's wake.
Have a Blessed week, everyone!

Sharing you this song for April Fool's. I love Lifehouse, can't stop listening to them :)
---
seems my own arrogance has knocked me off my feet again when you know I'm crawling to you as fast as I can first teach me to walk and then I'll learn to dance for you like an honest clumsy clown tripping along the way
cause I'm reaching for you but my arms aren't long enough and I'm running to you if I could go a little faster and I'm crying to you but I can't hear my own voice and I am waiting for you and trying not to fall asleep now
cause I'm clumsily dancing away this fear I'm stumbling closer to you and I am tumbling over my pride I will be a fool for you
what are you thinking as you look down on me are you frustrated with my inconsistency or intrigued that I can find the will to get back up or maybe all of this is simply amusing
cause I'm reaching for you but my arms aren't long enough and I'm running to you if I could go a little faster and I'm crying to you but I can't hear my own voice I am waiting for you and trying not to fall asleep now
cause I'm clumsily dancing away this fear I'm stumbling closer to you and I'm tumbling over my pride I will be a fool for you cause I'm clumsily dancing away this fear I'm stumbling closer to you and I'm tumbling over my pride I will be a fool
and I'm clumsily dancing away this fear I'm stumbling closer to you and I'm tumbling over my pride I will be a fool for you
