NEW MOON IS HERE!

So we bought the New moon DVD today at Wal-mart. I am quite happy, because It's part of my collection, now I have the second one. :) I'm so happy too because my hubby is a die hard fan of the twilight saga, and He was the one who insisted that we buy it right away today. It's so funny... young girls, moms, elderly people, gays, you name it had a copy in their hands as well as their carts. WOW! The first display was emptied right away and people are working their way on the second display hehehe. We just finished watching the special features, so awesome!

Shutter Island

I totally loved it! 10 stars! Martin Scorsese did a good job with it, he was always one of my favorite directors. :) And for Leo Dicaprio himself, bravo! performance well done! I saw it a few days ago and It was such a breathtaking movie. I think It gave me a splitting headache because it left me thinking at the end. No spoilers here, sorry. I suggest you go out and watch it for yourself. I've never read the book, I almost bought it at Wal-mart, too but I told myself It's best if I watched it. I usually read the books before watching the movies, but It's OK - I didn't care anymore. These are the kinds of movies I enjoy watching. I'm still wondering what movie to watch next. Any suggestions?

vampire fever

Me and the hubs are so into The Vampire diaries. Since I skipped, I still have a few more episodes to watch and I just finished watching the episode 10 a few minutes ago, so here I am typing away on mr. lappy. I wonder when's the next episode gonna air? talk about addicted hehee. I love my hubby very much, we just love watching the same shows, he's such a best friend :D.
So anyway, I am a Twi-fan and I still made room for another set of vampire drama (LOL). It's been a long time since I had the Twilight fever last year, now I've been sucked into the world of Stefan, Damon and Elena. I love the Cullens very much... but I am so drawn into watching the Salvatore brothers, too - The story really looks a lot like a Twilight rip-off but, hey - ms. LJ SMITH brought these characters into our world back in the early 90's. I guess back then It wasn't really the trend like what we have right now. And there's just so much vampire stories out there, I tried reading Lynsay Sands Argeneau series, It was alright until I stopped then I reached for another book. It was JUST... too sexy for me :P If You know what I mean. ;-)

I'll try my best to read all the vampire diaries books. Plus, watching The show will keep me busy while waiting for the next movie Eclipse that's coming out in June! yay, can't wait.

While I was reading a blog post from somewhere on the net, I came across a blog post about how Ian Somerhalder looks a cross between Chase crawford and Tom Welling. what do you think?







I think he fits Damon pretty well. I hope they would end up having a few more seasons (sigh). :)

You can say whatever you want but I'm a Twi-TVD fan. LOL

YA, I know

Lately, I've been seeing YA (young adult) books popping out everywhere. And it seems like everything is just about Vampires, rich kids, snobby teens, etc... you name it. OK, I love the Twilight saga (blushes) and I've read all books plus the Midnight Sun draft - and I was completely hooked. I had a fever for about... 3 months. I'm starting to watch the Vampire diaries, too and planning on reading the LJ smith The vampire diaries series.

So, What is it with these books that The youngsters nowadays love it so much? I guess It's a trend, most young people have that certain fantasies and when they get into it It's like a world they get into so they can experience the things they really want to do in real life. Unfortunately, The youngsters of our generation gets the wrong message. So most kids are influenced in a way and I think sometimes It's not their fault, The parents also contribute in the way they act. For me, It's not always about "buy me this, buy me that" thing, If you can control your child - DO IT! Don't just give in what they want. Explain the pros and Cons of reading these kinds of books, I'm pretty sure they'll understand. It's great to know that the children of today are into reading, but we have to learn how to balance it out with great non-fictional books to feed their knowledge that will surely benefit them someday.

I remember when I was a kid, the books that I was interested in were The goosebumps by R.L. Stine, The Archie comics and The Nancy drew Mysteries. I wasn't really hooked on reading novels just yet but today, It's amazing how young the kids are who are into YA books. I guess this is the new generation for you. :)

EAGLE EYE

Me and hubby had a simple date today, we went to the dollar movie to see eagle eye! and OH MY GOSH, it was freakin' awesome, I tell ya! I won't inlcude spoilers here (sorry) if you haven't seen it, I suggest you do, Shia is the man! he's one talented kid, even back in his Even Stevens days, just a terrific actor. I also enjoyed him in Transformers and Disturbia, too. This film reminded me of transformers, coz it had those air force guys in it. The secretary of defense (lol) and the running and special effects hoo boy, It was so great! as well as those words that types on the bottom just like in the transformers movie :D. It will keep your adrenaline going, that's for sure. I give it a complete 5 star rating. So far This one and Twilight will be my list of faves. can't wait to get the dvd!!
hugs, Kitty
