Goodbye Kalai part 2.

Goodbye Kalai Part 2.

LAST NIGHT IN KALAI.

                Before, I was thinking, what would I be doing on my last night in Kalai? Would I cry? Yes, I did, haha. But do you know why? And what did I do?

                What we did, is to watch Proposal Daisakusen that night, me, Iya, Joanna and Hannie. We even went shopping to buy some foods, and we stayed in our room and watched (from 9 pm – 4 am). And we cried, we cried because the series is so damn good and touching.. haha.. When we stared at each other’s faces we just laughed and said “You’re crying too?. Haha. The funny thing is Joanna, she had survived through the long hours of watching but when there was only 10 minutes remaining, we’ve found her sleeping, hahahahaha, I think it’s one of the most crucial parts pa naman. When she woked up (5 minutes after the end), we were teasing her. LOL. After watching, the four of us slept on mine and my roommate’s bed (we joined it). I guess that’s the sweetest part of it, we four, stuck at that bed sleeping, we can’t even freely move because there isn’t so much space, we’re like the sisterhood of the yamashita fans (what the?? Just my invention, since after watching it we’re like into yamapi and all). The thing is I don’t know that the three of them have classes at 8:30 that day, I’m the only one who don’t have, but I’m not guilty (bad me), and since they have classes I am left to clean all of the mess that we’ve done. But it’s okay, I’m happy doing it.

                And that was what happened during my last night in Kalai (March 18, 2008).

 

UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS

I’ll just list some of them, in no particular order.

+  the time where in we hadn’t slept for a day because we’re busy watching Devil Beside You (though I’ve watched it for the third time already)

+ the times where in my friends would barge into our room, and do their stuff there, even though our room is always a mess I’m still happy that they are there.

+ the time when I was doing my 1000 cranes and the whole 3^rd floor girls helped me. I’m so touched.

+ “our” orderan time, always eating and eating.

+ the time where in my roommate went food hunting and we brought back pancit canton, isaw and a bottle of coke.

+ our “kibum craze”, where in we danced and sing to SuJu’s miracle song.

+ and all the time that I’ve spent with them, I’ll definitely cherish it. ^^

 

ON LEAVING

                As I looked into my room for the last time, I can’t helped but to feel sad, everywhere I looked I can see flashbacks of my stay in there. It’s as if it were just yesterday, when I looked into the empty side that Iya once occupied, the loneliness doubled. I will miss the time where in I can see her sleeping, haha. The bonding moments that were shared in that very room, it’s so hard to let go, but I guess that’s a part of life. I wish we will be in the same dorm next sem. Oh reminiscin’ surely is hard.

Goodbye Kalai part 1.

Goodbye Kalai. Thanks for keeping me for a whole year, thank you for all the memories. I'll definitely miss you.

Warning: The following post will be filled with drama and the like (will be narrating my experiences in Kalai.) If you're not interested in this kind of things, you know what to do.

So my stay in Kalai officialy ended today. I have stayed there for almost ten months. Being that my house is a three hour journey from the University, and it would be very uncomfty to travel back and forth, so I've decided to find a dormitory - Kalai.

A basic info about Kalai: it's a coed dormitory exclusive for freshmen only. In here you can meet different people from different places around the Philippines. Each room can accomodate two occupants.

Okay, so the first time I checked in in this dorm, there were a lot of people everywhere, they were "like me", a freshie, but then I've noticed that they are together as a group, and because I'm the only person in my high school studying in UPD, I have no friends and I'm not the type to approach someone, I'm shy, as in so so so shy. I think I'm retarded. lol

FRIENDS

       The first set of friends that I've gained is my roommate's friends. When I entered our room (BA 37), Iya (roomie) wasn't there, so I waited, and then she came, it's nice seeing her for the first time, she looked kind which is a relief. Then she left and came back asking me to accompany her because she would introduce me to her friends. And I've met them, and till now, we're pretty close, Hannie, Kim and Anacel. ^^

        Then it was Joanna, hmm, days after I've found that I'm distancing myself from people, and then I've seen Joanna, I instanty got this feeling that we're the same, so I approached her, and then we became friends. And about the "we are the same", I've found out that we aren't, haha. Joanna has a different personality behind her facade. LOL, you got to know her more, sobrang kwela.

       As days passed, I've met some other people, too many to mention but I'm so glad I've known them. ^^

MISCONCEPTIONS

      Just wanna clear things up, you (you know who you are) are always reminding me that during our first term in the dorm, I'm the earliest sleeper around, haha, you always find me sleeping. hehe. I think (nasabi ko na 'to kay Iya) that's because during that time, I'm not yet open to conversations or rather I can't think of a topic to talk about, so I just sleep it out. ^^

      But come second sem, I've noticed that I always slept late, ranging from 12 am onwards, and the thing is it isn't about acads, haha, since we're (you, yes you people) close, we stayed late talking about things that interests us, I remember Hannie's laughter back then, or if we aren't we're busy watching something or eating.. haha. I think my body's adapting to the pattern, I'm not a sleephead anymore. hehe. Look my eyebags are growing. ^^

      This post looks long, so I'll just split it into half.

 

Bad Luck.

I'm too tired, I'd want to sleep but i'll first post here.

Basically a summary of what happened to me this day.

Woke up at around 4 in the morning to go to my university(UP).

8 am - arrived at our dormitory after 3 hours of travelling.

9 am - went to our Dorm Manager to have my clearance signed, but he says that I'm not yet paid with the last installment, I quickly argued that I've already paid, but in the end I lose, so I just went to the bank to get my receipt, glad that it was released not long after. Gave back the receipt, I've really paid it's just that the person who wrote my account has made some mistake. Not mad, but imagine if there was no receipt, would I need to come back home again?

10 am - Joanna and I went dorm-hunting, we ended up making our application in Molave Residence Hall. However we did not passed it yet since we lack documents and the dorm manager was strict. x_X Also rumor has it that it was once a morgue, creepy, ne?

11 am - helped Joanna to bring down her stuff, it's heavy, I commented that she seems to have brought her house in her room. lol

12 noon - finally met joanna's mom, she's so kind I instantly love her, I've felt that I've found another mother figure in her. 

12:30 - left our dorm..

1 - 3 pm - Was riding the bus, the route that I've to travel is totally foreign, plus the bus that I'm riding suddenly stops, the driver told us that someone stole the crude, omg, we waited for 20-30 mins. Arrggghhh, it was just my first time taking that route but why did that happen? And I almost missed my destination, glad that the driver announced that we're approaching the mall. 

3 pm - arrived at the mall, purpose is to buy some blank cd's and dvd's. Have waited for 40 mins. just to have my order taken. The service is so slow.

4 pm - have finally arrived at home.

Now that I'm done with this, I think I should get a good sleep first. Bye!

Huling Exam ng aking pagka-freshie, at kung anu ano pa

       Just finished my last exam for the sem - Chem 16. This is also my last exam as a freshie, since I will be in my second year next sem.

       Hindi ako magdadrama sa post ko, since happy ako at wala na ding worries, maeenjoy ko na ang bakasyon, siguro the drama would come after irelease ang mga grades. haha. Pero I've already prepared for that. Happy happy muna ako.

      One thing na nakakainis ay yung pagaaral ko yesterday, as in medyo kinareer ko yung pagaaral sa problem solvings ampala e puro multiple choice lang, sobrang nagworry pa naman ako kasi di ko na matandaan kung paano ibalance ang redox reactions. Pero at least may choices lahat, madaling makapanghula.

     Di pa din ako nakakapagcheckout sa Dorm, since may konting conflict kanina sa pagpapasign ng clearance, so I would just return sa UP sa Monday (sayang sa pamasahe..).

     Ang init init ngayon, kanina nung papunta at pauwi ako from-to UP pakiramdam ko ay kinuha ko na ang lahat ng dumi sa kapaligiran, kaya naman ligo ako agad. ^^ Sana hindi ako magkasakit.

     Earth Hour kanina, pero di ko siya nasunod.

     Medyo nagsesenti ako ngayon, siguro dahil na rin sa mga songs na pinapakinggan ko, nagsimula ang lahat sa Shakespeare in Love ni Layla Kaylif at Teardrops on my Guitar ni Taylor Swift. LOL

    At sobrang namimiss ko na ang mga dormmates ko, sana sana magkakasama ulit tayo next year. I'll definitely miss you guys. Salamat sa lahat.

[PV] NEWS - Taiyou no Namida (Group Ver.)

Wheew. It took me a long time to upload this.
Taiyou no Namida (Group Version) by NewS. I think I'm starting to like them as a group, and I'm afraid I'm starting to be a JE fan now, just a little more motivation, maybe it'll be soon.

I love this song, maybe because it was used as a song for Kurosagi the movie, or maybe because Pi's in it. I've also discovered that I'm liking Ryo. (only next to Yamapi of course)^^

Proposal Daisakusen SP

       WAaaaa, It was shown in Japan last night, and the SP is now available at d-addicts, however it's in raw format and the file is too large. 2 gb to be exact.

     I'm really tempted to dl this right now, but then I'll just wait for the SP with subs to come out. Kung medyo maliit lang sana yung file baka tinry ko na. wahuhu. Can't wait to see Ken zou again. Yamapi! Subbers please please work on this.  Arigatou.

 

Update: have finally watched the SP, for my review, go

here

 

Whoaaa. Yamapi on Anan!

I was looking for pics of Yamapi over the net, and then I've came across his pic with a girl in a not so goody kind of way. Actually I've seen that pic before, but I ignored it, then my curiosity get the best of me, so I tried to search it.

And whhhhhhhhoooooooooaaaa. Yamapi posed for Anan nude! not necessarily nude as in all nude, but he has his butt exposed. Noooo, and also the pic of with the ukraninan model in the shower is so fiery hot. Arrgghhh, the girl's so lucky, i hate her. LOL I think my heart's gonna split open after seeing that particular pic, the rest I can manage but that.. HUHUHU (cries) YAMAPI!!! NOOOOO!!!!

I'm not disgusted or something, I'm proud of Yamapi, plus he's super dooper hot in there. (faints). I can't urge myself to post that pic here in multiply, I can't even save it on my files. Just search for it na lang.. Just another note, why is it that I get the feeling that Yamapi looks awkward in some of the pics?

Presents from Floormates.

Here are some of the pictures that I've taken. These are the surprises that my floormates have given me for my 18th birthday.

A Rose For Machay.

I'm gonna cry. Arrrghhhhh. Bakit ganito yung feeling? Sobrang nakakatouch. I've never thought na makakaramdam ako ng ganito.

My 18th birthday ended last Thursday - that's what I thought, yun pala may mga nagiintay pa rin na sorpresa.

Kagagaling ko lang from my Math 53 Finals kanina, at sobrang nakakastress, kaya diretso ako sa canteen sa Dorm kasi hinihintay ako ni Joanna, then nung nandon na ako, Joanna gave me a stem of rose, ayan sa pic oh, sobrang nagulat ako, I wasn't really expecting anything from someone kasi nga tapos na birthday ko, tapos nandun din sa table yung iba sa 2nd floor boys and they greeted me at may kasama pang clap, nun palang sobrang saya ko na. Grabe. And first time kong makatanggap ng rose na binili talaga for me. Jo-anna, thank you for making one of my dreams happen.

Then paakyat na kami sa room ko, and dun sa frontdoor may nakapost na Belated, nagulat ako, so I opened the door, and then it hit me. My roommate (Iya) and our friends, Hannie, Anacel, Joanna have prepared a surprise for me. Nandun nagrerest sa chair ko ang isang dambuhalang card (see the pic??). Waaaa, roommate bakit ka ganyan??? At hindi lang yun, meron din isang dambuhalang crane na may mga nakasabit na pic namin.. waaa. sobrang nakakaiyak, akala ko dadaan na lang yung birthday ko na parang pangkaraniwan lang, Salamat talaga sa inyo ng malaki. And one thing na nakakatuwapa ay ang effort ni Iya na bigyan ako ng 18 guys. When I opened the card, bigla ba namang nalantad sa akin ang 18 pictures ng guys na may kinalaman sa kin (either naging crush ko, idol, and the like). Sobrang napangiti na lang ako, sana magkatotoo na isayaw ako nung 18 guys na yun. haha. Iya sobrang sobrang sobrang sobang salamat sa'yo, salamat sa effort mo.

 

Sa inyong lahat maraming maraming maraming salamat sa inyo, hindi ko talaga makakalimutan ang araw na 'to. Natutuwa ako kasi nakatagpo ako ng mabubuting kaibigan sa katauhan ninyo. Thank you kasi nandyan kayo lagi for me lalo na sa mga difficult times. Sana magkasama ulit tayo sa dorm next year. O kaya magboarding house na lang tayo.

May kasalanan pala ako sa inyo, actualy sa bahay ko na lang nakunan yang mga pics kasi naman wala akong cam na dala eh, tsaka ginulat niyo talaga ako. Hehe. Post ko na lang yung mga kinunan ko pang pic.

And sa lahat nga pala ng bumati sa akin nung birthday ko, ARIGATOU!

(Wala ako sa dorm nung birthday ko kaya naman hindi ako nakapagcelebrate dun)

Regrets...

Kala mo namang ambigat ng problema.

Yeah medyo mabigat nga, nagkacram na ko sa pagaaral para sa test sa MATH 53 tom. Grabe, sobrang tinamad akong mag-aral kanina, at ngayon namang nagaaral ako wala akong maintindihan, lalo na sa Integrals.

Ngayon ako nagsisisi na sana nagaral na ko a few days ago. Wahuhuhuhu. LAst blog ko na 'to for today. Kailangan ng magseryoso.

A promotional photo of the Taiwan group F4 (from L to R): Vanness Wu, Vic Zhou, Jerry Yan and Ken Chu. The four actors rose to fame for their roles in the TV drama Meteor Garden, since then they have been referred to as F4, which the four characters in the serial named themselves.

Taiwan's smash hit television drama "Meteor Garden" will soon be made into a Korean version, South Korean media reported.

The remake is scheduled to be screened in late 2008, with twenty-four 70-minute episodes. The cast has not been announced yet, the report said.

The high school-based romance serials, adapted from a Japanese manga, have won extreme popularity in the Chinese-speaking world and catapulted the five leads, Barbie Hsu, Vanness Wu, Vic Zhou, Jerry Yan and Ken Chu, to immediate stardom when it first aired in 2001.

A Japanese version, "Hana Yori Dango," aired in Japan in 2005, also to great success.

Japanese Manga <<Hana Yori Dango>> has since been made into drama series by Taiwan & Japan and were very popular. The Koreans are currently in preparation for the filming of the Korean's version. The netizens have already begun choosing the actors to act in the series.

KBS having seen <<Hana Yori Dango>> being so popular in Asia, will be roping in Korea's most good looking guys for the Korean version. It has scheduled to air sometime in mid of 2008. While the TV Station makes the announcement of filming <<Hana>>, the netizens already started choosing the actors for the characters in the series. Some feel that Ku Hye Sun from <<The King & The Clown>> is suitable for role of Makino Tsukushi while others recommend Yoon Eun Hye to take on the role.

Im Juh Wan for the role of Hanazawa Rui while Jung Woo Sung who once collaborated with Ku Hye Sun in some commercial ads, has been recommended to take on the role of Doumyouji Tsukasa. Kang Dong Won, Lee Dong Gun, Jang Hyuk & Hyun Bin are voted by some the best candidates. The netizens also point out that Im Juh Wan of <<The Snow Queen>> should play the part, Hanazawa Rui though some prefer Choi Si Won & Jang Geun Suk for this character for its gentle image. The netizsens also recommend Jung Kyung Ho & Lee Min Ki for the parts, Nishikado Soujiroh & Mimasaka Akira.

side comment: I'm fine with Korea making a version of this basta isama niyo lang si Kim Ki Bum.

AYAN MAY PIC NA SILA YUN NGA LANG ANIME YUNG NAKALAGAY.

Hana Kimi? (JP and TW)

  Hay. Sobrang nakakainis naman, kahit saan atang forum ako magpunta lagi na lang network wars ang aking nababasa. Another addition to that would be ang airing ng Hana Kimi Jap sa GMA versus Hana Kimi TW sa Dos. Naglurk ako sa thread ng bawat isa, and yung mga fans grabe talaga yung paninira. Um, actually yung fans ng HK TW talaga yung sobra. What I mean is they're saying mean stuff sa JP, and sa GMA na din. And another would be yung tagline ng commercial ng ABS, it says something like "The Orig", probably ito ay reference sa pagair ng Coffee Prince sa GMA, since almost the same yung plot nila na may girl na nagpanggap na boy. True nga naman na nauna ang TW sa Coffee Prince at pati na din sa JP version, pero it's too much, I think na kaya ganun na lang ang panglalait ng mga fans ay dahil sa GMA ang nakakuha ng rights sa pagaair ng mga yun, the mere fact na "GMA" yun.

           Sa totoo lang maka-GMA ako pero that doesn't mean na ayaw ko talaga sa ABS, anyway parehong maganda ang HANA KIMI JP at TW. Nagkaiba lang sila sa plot. HK TW focuses more on the love story between Quan and Rei Xi, samantalang ang JP naman ay medyo ganun din pero mas marami nang involvement ang mga dorms. With regards sa LEADS, aminado akong mas gwapo si WU ZUN kaysa kay OGUSHUN, but dapat hindi yun yung batayan. About naman sa girls, ELLA and MAKI are both fine with me, pero mas gusto ko si MAKI and mas bumagay sa kanya yung role. And ito na yung pinakahihintay kong part, whom to choose between JIRO and TOMA, syempre TOMA CHAN ako forever. though sobrang galing din ng portrayal ni Jiro sa TW pero nang dahil kay Nakatsu (Toma), sobrang nilove ko yung character niya na hindi ko naman nagawa kay (Siu Yi).

             About sa plot, medyo mushy yung sa TW version yun namang sa JP ay sobrang nakakatawa at nakakakilig. One thing I don't like sa TW is that medyo draggy yung ibang parts, minsan tuloy nakakabore. As a fan of asian series, I would recommend that you watch both versions sa Monday, tutal naman hindi sila magkatapat ng time slot. There's nothing to lose naman. Pero if you'll ask me kung ano mas gusto ko, it would be Hanazakari no Kimitachi e. Mas nauna kong napanood ang TW pero mas nagustuhan ko ang Jap version. Pero it's up to you guys kung ano ang mas guto niyo, I'm only giving my opinion on the matter. And about dun sa mga detractors. PLS STOP IT. Napakachildish niyo naman. Don't make a fuss about the two, pareho silang maganda okay??? And about kung sino ang mas okay mag dub, kahit naman sabihin kong hindi ganung kagaling magdub yung GMA, i'll watch it pa rin kasi mahal ko ang JP version at gusto kong makitang nagtatagalog si Nakatsu - kun. ^^

"Hana Kimi" SP confirmed

Last summer's "Hanazakari no Kimitachi e" drama series is returning for a one-episode special. Starring Maki Horikita, Shun Oguri, and Toma Ikuta, the show was very popular, especially among female viewers. It averaged 17.3% ratings, with the final episode reaching 21.0%.

According to Fuji TV, the special will take place half a year after the series' end. With Osaka Gakuen getting ready for an upcoming Valentine's Day event, Sano (Oguri) and Nakatsu (Ikuta) reflect on the final week of their last summer vacation, which falls into the timeline of the original series between episodes 7 and 8. The special also includes a graduation scene and addresses the relationship between Mizuki (Horikita) and Sano.

Filming begins on Wednesday, but no broadcast date has been specified yet.

Proposal Daisakusen (Operation Love)

Rating:	★★★★★
Category:	Other

”Hallelujah Chance”

Currently on Yamapi craze. I was trying to continue watching Kurosagi but then I decided that I should first try Proposal Daisakusen. Originally, I only intended to watch the first episode, but then after watching its pilot episode, my roommate urged me to continue, and so we ended up watching till the second episode, and since I have a so many exams the following day, we stopped.

That night we decided that we would finish the series the following night. And so it came, we (my roommate, Joanna, Hannie and myself), armed with lots of chips and juices, started watching it at around 8:30 pm and eventually we ended at 4 am. It’s definitely a marathon, all through out the course of time we were munching, crying, reacting and the sort. And here goes my review of the series.

Synopsis


Iwase Ken(Yamashita Tomohisa) and Yoshida Rei (Nagasawa Masami) have been good friends since primary school. Ken has been harboring feelings for Rei since then but he’s just too shy to admit it to her. And so the episode started with a wedding scene, Rei and Tada-sensei’s wedding ceremony. As Ken watches Rei being married to Tada instead of him, he regrets all of the things that he’s done in the past. He wished that he could go back in time to fix all of the errors that he’s done and to be able to confess his feelings for Rei – if only he’d done that maybe things wouldn’t end up this way.


And so the wedding continues, they have shown a slide show of Rei’s life. This too has made Ken feel miserable. But then a “church fairy” appeared in front of him and offered him the chance to go back into the past, the trick is that he can only go back to the time where in the current photo of the slide is taken, and of course he should be in the photo. And he was able to travel back in time, but changing one’s fate isn’t that easy, and so Ken will have to face many obstacles ahead – some of them he was able to overcome but some are failures. In the end, will Ken be able to propose to Rei, and would that change everything?

Review

We have cried bucket of tears watching this series, it is not a dramatic one but there are just points in the series that one can’t help but cry. We were all crying, it first started when Rei’s grandfather visited her. Then we find ourselves crying towards the last few episodes. Ken’s character is so pitiful, though he is at fault, I can’t put myself to blame him, but there are instances where in I’m so annoyed at his lack of confidence.

Despite the drama, Proposal Daisakusen is a romantic comedy, not only does it focus on Ken’s struggle to change his fate but it also shows the friendship that existed between the characters in the story. And as every slide is focused, one can get a moral lesson out of it. There are a lot of things to learn from, some are inspiring, and some are heart breaking.



The expressions that Yamapi used are so funny. Especially when he does his thing - the “Hallelujah Chance”, it reminds me of him in Nobuta Wo Produce. However, as the show progresses, the Hallelujah thing (the song, not yamapi’s) kinda get on my nerves, haha.

The greatest thing that I’ve discovered in watching this series is how effective and great Yamapi’s crying is. I think that’s the biggest factor on why we cried our hearts out in watching this. I am convinced that Yamapi is the best actor that I’ve seen crying. I cried a lot when he did during the church scene. You couldn’t be not touched by that scene.

"Current Obsession - Kim Ki Bum"

Hahaha. Current Obsession - Kim Ki Bum.

   He's a member of a Korean boy band Super Junior. Actually I've seen him before and I've thought of him as cute but then it was just last Thursday that I've really like him. It all started when I've borrowed one of my dorm mate's hard disk to copy the series 'Kurosag', and then we were looking through the files and then, we saw Super Junior's Miracle MV, and then we all agreed that he's the cutest person ever, and we all have this huge crush on him, we even sing and dance to Miracle, sobrang high ata kami. Basta, I love him.  He's so talented, he came from America, and his IQ is 138 (not so sure on the exact figures)

Super Junior - Miracle

My new found obsession. MV of Miracle by Super Junior. And also, spot niyo na lang kung sino pinakagusto ko sa kanila. Go Ki Bum! He's so cute. ^^

Genre:	Romance
Author:	Stephenie Meyer

The third installment to the Twilight series.

Just finished reading it a while ago. I’m currently suffering from mixed emotions. I have enjoyed reading it but somehow I was saddened and more so I’m troubled. I’m speechless in a way but in my mind, there are a lot of thoughts circling in.

The story’s fantastic, no doubt about that. I thought its plot would center on how the Cullens and the werewolves would fight off Victoria’s coven. However, it isn’t it. It’s more of who Bella chooses, would it be Edward or Jacob? At the beginning, I already have this gut feeling that it would happen, based from the poem “Fire and Ice” that the author quoted.

Arrgghhh. It’s annoying me. If before I was so sure that Bella would choose Edward, now I’m on doubt. It troubles me. Why does it have to be this way? Bella, please choose Edward. Pretty please. I’m kind of irritated with Bella, I’m confused at her emotions. At some point in the story, I’m utterly convinced that she loved Jacob more than Edward, and it freaks me out. A major no-no.

Enough of my troubles. My favorite part in the book would be the point where in Edward proposes (formally) to Bella, it’s just so sweet. I couldn’t imagine it happening. While I was reading it, I’m throwing fits like I was crazy, it’s so overwhelming. In a way it was humorous, funny and romantic. But then there’s someone hindering me to be all so merry that they will have a happy ending. OMG.

I do hope (I think I’ve said this for the nth time already) Bella and Edward end up together. I’m definitely waiting for the fourth book. But I don’t want Bella to become a vampire, if there’s any other way that they can achieve true love let them be, it just spoils the whole thing. The ending’s lacking, I hoped to witness how Charlie would react to their marriage. And I’m sort of puzzled on why Jacob’s thought is the one in the epilogue? Does it mean that we will see more of his thoughts on the fourth book? Is this an indication that something terrible will happen??

The sequel to Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight. When I’ve started reading it, I’ve prepared myself to be disappointed. As I’ve said on my previous review, I’ve read its summary and I’m not eager on how things will turn out.

Warning: spoiler ahead.

One thing I don’t like about this book is Edward’s absence on most parts of the story. Let’s face it, Twilight isn’t complete without him. What I mean is what’s the point in all this if one of the protagonists is absent? Someone may have replaced him, but it isn’t enough. I’ve read on some groups over the internet that they’ve found that New Moon is better, however majority of them are Jacob lovers, they like Jacob up to the point that they hated Edward. Oh c’mon, I know Edward’s at fault for leaving Bella, but honestly, they should understand him. I have no grudges against Jacob, I’m even thankful that he cheered Bella up, but Edward’s for Bella and Bella’s for Edward. End of story. Though I kind of pity Jacob for having his heart broken, but that’s the way it is, someone has to give way. I can’t imagine if Bella ended up with Jacob at the end of the series, maybe I’d forever banished Twilight from my memory (just joking). I’ll stick with Edward till the end. Vampires rock (more than werewolves do, lol)

Well, I’m through about the part that I don’t like. Looking at it at another perspective, New Moon is worth the time, I was truly engrossed in reading it. Perhaps addicted is the right term, I don’t have a copy of the book, I’m just reading it over my laptop, can you just imagine how my eyes have been tired for hours just to read the book? I can’t stop myself, it’s as if there’s a magnet attached to it that I can’t get away from. And I think that magnet would be Edward, I’m so looking forward to finally see him appear again. My favorite part would be the one were in Bella rushed to Italy just to save Edward from ‘killing’ himself. It’s touching and funny at the same time.


I’m currently reading Eclipse, the sequel to New Moon. If ever you want a PDF copy of the series, just PM me or leave a comment, I’m more than glad to send it to you. ^^

Cranes, Cranes, Cranes.

Isang album na puno nang cranes.

Shoot. Ang ganda. Swear. You should read this.

The story’s about Bella, a girl who just moved in to live with his father in Forks. And there she met Edward. At first, she had found him weird but gorgeous at the same time. The twist is Edward’s a vampire. Creepy eh? At the beginning Edward showed great dislike towards Bella, but as the story developed, the two found themselves falling in love with each other. However there are a lot of trials ahead, how will they continue their love if the one is mortal and the other immortal? Can Edward stop himself from being attracted to Bella’s blood? How will Edward protect Bella from the others of his kind?

Why do I like this book? Perhaps it would be the story itself, a vampire being in love with a normal girl. And not just an ordinary vampire, EDWARD’s so hot. It doesn’t matter if he’s a vampire, I would still be sticking by his side anyway. He’s my favorite character in the story, I love his naughtiness, his attitude, I love everything about him. There’s so many kilig parts, where in I’ll just smile to myself, even if I’m reading it in a public place I still can’t contain my emotion, si Edward kasi eh. Hmm, enough of Edward.

Dahil sa story na ‘to, naapreciate ko tuloy bigla ang mga vampires. There’s so many things to look forward to sa story na hindi pa nasasagot sa Twiight. Currently I’m reading its sequel – New Moon, nabasa ko na yung summary niya sa net, and ayoko nung nangyari, I wouldn’t say more, basta nakakaasar lang.

There would be a movie of this, however hindi ko feel yung actor. Edward will be portrayed by the guy who played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter. Ayoko sa kanya kasi hindi siya yung guy na naiimagine ko na si Edward, there’s still many other guys out there. Super disappointed ako, sorry if may naoffend akong fan niya, but I’m just stating my opinion.

Crane Madness

 

            As the title suggests, we were definitely on Crane Madness last week, well, it’s my fault actually. I wanted to give 1000 paper cranes to a very special person for his 18^th birthday. This is the catch, I’ve only thought of making it on Wednesday night, and his birthday will be that Sunday. If you think about it, it is impossible for me to complete such a task, but luckily there are people who are willing to lend their hand (haha, I think it’s more of me coercing them). I’ve even posted an announcement, asking for help.

            Before I continue, I would like to thank the following people for helping me: BA 3^rd floor girls (esp. those who stayed late night), my roommate, Hanie, Joanna, Kat, Avi, Hazell, Bana, Bea, Gisella and the rest. The credit also goes to my Blockmates, Ceidge, Bennie, Benga, Bermie, Daniel, your help are definitely appreciated. If it weren’t for you guys, my plan wouldn’t be made possibe. Pasensya na kung napuyat kayo, o kaya’y hindi nakapakinig ng lesson dahil sakin.

            Enough of the roll call. Hmmmm, making those cranes has put me to my limit, bangag ako ng tatlong magkakasunod na araw. If you’ve only seen our room during those days, it’s worse than the Smokey Mountain (I’m a bit exaggerating in here, lol). Papers were everywhere, trashes here and there. You’ll also see my floormates looking extremely tired and haggard. Daig pa ang giyera pag nadako kayo sa room namin. Fortunately we’ve finish it by Friday midnight.

But even if making those cranes is difficult, I’m so so happy with the result. GAP was touched by what I did, and nothing ever compares with the feeling that I’ve made someone happy, especially someone I cared for. It’s definitely worth it. Not only that, by the course of that three days, our floor sort of bonded. Especially during the last night, we even eat together. That scene has brought me crying inside, if I’ve touched someone’s life, THEY’ve also touched mine, I didn’t expect that they would whole heartedly help me, sheez. LOVE ko talaga kayo girls. ^^ Maraming maraming salamat.

And after Saturday, our “madness” was put to a stop.
