edward cullen wooden desk calendar

Imagine this: AAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!! Breath! Breath! That's not me...that will be my sister Ruthie by the time she will see this Edward Cullen Wooden Desk Calendar. I was looking online for the New Moon desk calendar that I promised her few months ago and I happened to see this calendar. Whoa! A great item for all Edward's fans and can be re-use yearly...well, until Edward's picture fades or/and you fall inlove with another vampire, hehe! But my oh my!...the price is way up into the sky! I am not very sure if it's practical to purchase this given that I don't know the quality of this item. Better find the other desk calendar soon!

the time traveler's wife by audrey niffenegger

I just finished the book by Audrey Niffenegger few minutes ago. I admit I first became aware of the book when the movie based from it came out...I red praises for the book. Sad to say, I wasn't able to catch the film adaptation at the cinema so I have to wait for the vcd/dvd release sometime soon. I like the book but I'm not yet decided if I will buy a copy for myself. I like the so many twists in Henry DeTamble and Clare Abshire's lives...their friendship that blossomed into something deeper...and how the author tells their story. The movie stars Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams and I want to watch it to know if it did justice to the best-selling novel. Here are the image of the author and the movie poster.

new moon movie companion book

Yah, I know...I know! All of the Twilight fans are now so excited with the upcoming movie of the saga which will be shown next month. And even my sister Ruthie is not an exemption...I'm a fan too and will definitely grab a movie ticket as soon as possible...but she's a bigger fan. And because she's practically drooling over the The Twilight Saga New Moon The Official Illustrated Movie Companion book by Mark Cotta Vaz (whew! such a long title for a 141-paged book) that I was showing to her through webcam...I dedicate this post to her. I haven't had the time to read the book yet but I will, soon. I love the images inside and from what I saw the book is about how New Moon movie was made...it's like a behind the scene book which I will love for sure because I'm the-behind-the-scene-of-the-movie-and-book-or-whatever-kind of girl, if you know what I mean, haha! So, for my loving sister here are some images and as I've promised more Edward and Bella because I know you are a member of Team Edward! Good thing I go for Team Jacob, so there's really no conflict. This post goes also to Jenefer 'Tot'...a vampire in the making. Enjoy girls!

twilight madness, harry potter madness

I know there are different translations of Twilight series now and it is so happen that someone I know who is a bilingual just recently bought a simplified chinese version of the Twilight series. Yap! She already owns the english version of the books with the original covers and she told me that she's thinking of collecting the english version with the movie covers...ehhhhh! It's Twilight madness according to her, jeje! I definitely feel for her, honestly! Well, with me and my sis Ruthie, it's called Harry Potter madness. Why? Well, simply because we still both live with our parents and we both have our own copies of the HP movies. She has vcd copies of movies HP1 to 5...and I have the vcd and dvd copies as well. Once, our Mom asked us why the need for so many copies since we are both living under one roof...she even told us we might as well have a Harry Potter Rentals because I also have the soundtrack albums and the books, hehehe! I answered her that we will not live together forever and what if we want to watch and the vcd or dvd player is not working...we are just preparing for that day whichever comes first, jeje! Come to think of it...if there's a Tagalog version of Twilight or Harry Potter I might be tempted to buy, too. As for now, I need to buy a special boxed-set of HP books that I promised Ruthie...weeeee!

lord of the rings books

I want to thank Jenefer 'Tot' Ocmer for the blessings she gave me recently...I really appreciate them Tot! As you know me, I really love books and I love to collect them. Better start reading them soon. Thank you again...mwah!

happy birthday to harry potter and dan radcliffe

I've been preoccupied for the past weeks that I haven't had the time to post here. I will try to catch up with my post as often as my sched permits. So, for today I want to greet someone so immensely popular that he should be included yearly in Time's Most Influential People if he is only just really existing (jeje!)...the most popular wizard in wizarding world...JK's Harry Potter! To Harry James Evans Potter...happy 29th birthday to you!


I want also to greet the actor who's giving life to Harry...Belated Happy 20th Birthday to Daniel Radcliffe last July 23. May you have more birthdays and blessings to come!

the saga of darren shan

My long wait is finally over! Finally I have now the complete set of The Saga of Darren Shan. I red the first book few years ago and fell in love with the story considering that I don't read horror or vampire books (that time) and this saga is not even a romance-in-the-vampire-world. So, before Edward...it was Darren Shan who captured my heart (good thing it's not my blood). I looked for the first book of the saga which is the Cirque Du Freak because I red somewhere that Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) likes the book. After reading the 12 books I know in my heart I must have my own set of the saga. As JK Rowling said about this saga, "Leaves the reader hungry for more".


Vampire Blood Trilogy (red)

• Cirque Du Freak
• The Vampire's Assistant
• Tunnels of Blood

Vampire Rites Trilogy (yellow)

• Vampire Mountain
• Trials of Death
• The Vampire Prince

Vampire War Trilogy (purple)

• Hunters of the Dusk
• Allies of the Night
• Killers of the Dawn

Vampire Destiny Trilogy (green)

• The Lake of Souls
• Lord of the Shadows
• Sons of Destiny

harry and ginny movie poster!

I'm going to faint! Really! Definitely! I'm waiting for this movie for so many years now...maybe for 8 years. No exaggerations! Since I first held the first Harry Potter book that I red (which is the HP3, hehehe!) I've been waiting for the day of the realisation of my dreams...my dreams for Harry and Ginny! And now, they are starting to come true...well, in HP world at least. Better calm myself now, LOL! Here's the movie poster my favourite couple. Weeeee!!!!!

harry potter 6 movie posters

Yehey! My long wait is over! Partly. I went yesterday to Broadway Palace Cinema, with Jenefer and Beth, to inquire if we can purchase now in advance the tickets for Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince movie which will be shown on July 15. Unfortunately, the tickets are not yet available, huhuhu. It only proves that ganoon kami ka-atat, hahaha! So, for consolation we saw these life-size posters of the HP6 and took the liberty to take some pictures despite of many onlookers, hehehe! I DON'T CARE!!! It's Harry Potter we are talking here guys, LOL! So, I want to share some of our pictures which I promised my sister, Ruthie, that I will post right away!

angels and demons day

Another movie adaptation of one my favourite books and among Dan Brown's. Actually I'm kind of hoping before I watched this movie that the movie will stick true to the book unlike what they did with The Da Vinci Code. I watched the movie with Jenefer last Sunday after we had our early lunch. We arrived at the movie house with just few minutes to spare so we forgot to take pictures with the movie poster, hehehe! Anyway, I really enjoyed the movie and I believe that Jenefer did, too. Directed by Ron Howard and starring Tom Hanks, Ayelet Zurer and Ewan McGregor the movie took in about US$48 million in it's first weekend release.

the inkheart trilogy

I do love the smell of new books! My new Inkheart Trilogy boxed-set arrived yesterday!!! Yehey!!! Sometimes when I read books I will suddently think what if the characters from the book I am reading will come into life. In Inkheart, Mo Silvertongue has the ability to bring characters from the books into our world by reading out loud. Whew! I red Inkheart and Inkspell few years ago and I am so excited to start reading the Inkdeath. Another addition to my collection.

inkheart

One of my favourite books made into film, INKHEART! YEHEY!!! I red the book few years ago and fell in love with the plot and the characters right away. When I learned that the book was made into a film I was so excited and I tried to remember all the small details in the book, hahaha! I finally watched the movie with Jen in Tsuen Wan Plaza's Broadway Cinema last April 19. I am glad that the film was true to the book and even glad that it's Brendan Fraser in the lead role. I can't wait for the Inkspell! I hope there will be Inkspell and Inkdeath! Below is Jen in front of the ticketing office of Broadway Cinema.

dan brown's the lost symbol

Whoa! Another book featuring Robert Langdon will be out come September 15. The Lost Symbol will have a first-run printing of 5 million copies, a modest number considering that The Da Vinci Code has sold 81 million copies in print world wide ( plus 1 by the time I buy my own copy, jeje!). I read all of his books and I can say that Angels and Demons is my favourite among his four books. Well, another book for my most-wanted booklist.

twilight saga collection boxed-set

An addition to my long-list of most-wanted books collection. I've been waiting for this boxed-set of Twilight Saga hard-bound books for few months now. Lately, I even contemplated of buying the paperback editions but I guess I'm destined to have this set,hehehe! Thanks to Ruthie...my books are now waiting for me. Few more sets are coming my way...I can feel it!
