my favorite OTH quote right now...

ok, i totally forgot about my fave OTH quote of the moment:

Make a wish and place it in your heart. Anything you want, everything you want. Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is gonna come from, the next smile, the next wish come true. But if you believe that it's right around the corner, and you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it. You just might get the thing you're wishing for. The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it. With all your heart.

says everything i want for the new year :) thanks, mark schwahn!

rob, jensen, twilight, ipod, etc

good riddance, 2008!

hello, 2009! :)

ok, i'm going to say it... i do love rob pattinson, OK? cut me some slack. he's actually an awesome guy (based on his countless interviews) i mean, i don't really actually KNOW the person, but i think he's pretty cool... case in point: he's not afraid to make fun of himself - which totally shows how comfortable in his skin he is and humble... that's pretty rare and i ADORE that!

second, he makes really AWESOME faces! hahahahahahahaha! can't help but squirm with delight! hee! and his quips kinda say how smart he is - which, he IS. someone who's REALLY funny has brains, ya know? ;)

OK - i just wanted to get that out of my chest...

next is jensen ackles. how FREAKING GREAT is this guy? another smart one, at that! he is hilarious in SPN (that's supernatural the tv show for those not in the know), he's sooooooooooooooo hot, and he's not being an a-hole about it. -sigh- how i envy danneel harris!

what can i say about twilight? honestly? the first time i saw it, i HATED it. i was flabbergasted, they didn't follow the book! but then when i saw it the second... and third times (hee!), i realized that i misjudged the filmmakers.. they couldn't possibly make a movie about the ENTIRE book! have you READ the book? i have. loved 'em! ;)

also, they pretty much put everything that was essential to the story/plot/whatever to make the movie work... i thought it was great. and lastly, if this was going to be a stinker, wouldn't stephanie meyer HERSELF put an end to it? for someone who's sold millions of books, i think she's got brains to think about this, no?

next up - just want the world to know i have a brand new ipod. haha! it's pink. the 2nd gen nano.

i also have a brand new tv ;)

and dvd player :)

and soon... a new cellphone :)

next up? laptop :)

save dean winchester / meet ruby

this has been an ongoing theme for quite some time now... right now in the states, we're nearing the season finale of my fave, fave, fave! shows: supernatural.



dean winchester (jensen "hotness" ackles) sold his soul to a demon in exchange for his brother's life. the noblest thing he'd ever done in his life, but the most right. and the sexiest. and the hottest . and the... oops, sorry. got carried away there.



*cough!* ok, i'm fine now. where was i? hot jensen. right.



i had to stop writing for a minute there. actually, i have to stop because i'm getting really, really, really hot!



wait, i'm fine now. ok, i will write about mariah carey instead because this is getting out of hand. damn, thinking about the guy is too much for me already! wow!



ok, mariah's new songs (the 2 i'd heard so far) are awesome! "touch my body" reminded me of "shake it off" and the video sold it. brett ratner, you are a god! that dude from 30 rock was so cute! he stole the show!



right now i'm listening (over and over, mind you) to her other song, "bye bye". it made me cry, especially when i heard the lyrics... kept me wondering who the song was dedicated to, because i know her dad died a few years ago; not sure about her mom, though. hope not. it made me imagine a video for it too. like mariah just standing all alone, black and white video (has to be), singing her heart out, then when the coda comes, people start crowding around her... because the song talks about "the peoples who lost somebody" and it would be perfect if complete strangers were with her in that video... would really hit hard...

also listening to kylie's all i see... my fave as of the moment ;)



going back to supernatural... i have to talk about ruby. the demon.



the first time i'd heard that they were bringing in girls to the show, i admit, i was really excited! about time those boys got some partners! ahem, allies. ha. little did i know...



eric kripke is one smart guy! he interwove ruby the demon into the story and made her likable. another angelus? right on! ruby makes her debut in magnificent seven, a kick-ass, awesome, fantastic episode! it really kicked butt! she really kicked butt! she then reappears in the kids are alright... where she proceeds to endear herself to me even more by saying the line about french fries "tastes like deep friend crack!" heh!


both times she appears only to sam (jared "cutie pie" padelecki - yes, that really is his last name). in malleus maleficarum, she appears to both brothers and proceeds to tear into dean! that scene was hot! that's when i got the idea that they'd be awesome together! hence, the resurrection of buffy and angel (for me) in dean and ruby... but i figured, why destroy something that's great? it's ok if they don't "do it" or "get it on". that's fine. as long as the sexual tension's there. that's what's going to make it work ;) i got to thinking and maybe eric didn't want the girls to be love interests, maybe they were there to be equals... not just for some suckfest.


i really love strong women. they're awesome role models... provided that they're fictional characters, but wtf!


buffy summers
faith (yes, she was bad, but i like that!)
sydney bristow
abigail whistler (blade trinity)
katherine willows
kara kent/kara zor-el
tami taylor (friday night lights)


all these characters are strong in some way (not necessarily physically), and that's why i love them... really makes me strong too in a weird sort of way. i love it when they kick butt too! and say really, really awesome one-liners. that's the best!

ok... if you wanna know how to save dean winchester, watch SUPERNATURAL, Thursdays on THE CW. you WON'T regret it!

"Sadness is easier because its surrender. I say make time to dance alone with one hand waving free."

hello blogworld! miss me? :) well, to explain my absence, 6 months ago, i was REALLY busy with work... 3 mos ago, i was on a much-needed, longtime-coming vacation... i was actually on LOA. heehee! i was trying to resign, but my boss (God love him) asked me to reconsider and think about it and made me go on this prolonged vacay. which, on hindsight, has been REALLY good for me. not for my wallet, though. i miss money; and making it. i've been cooped up in my room just watching TV, going through all my DVDs, actually finishing the snakes game in my cellphone, and just hanging out with my dog :)

to all HARDWORKERS out there, PLEASE TAKE TIME AND REST. i learned it the hard way. for 2 straight years i've been working and working and working; sometims not going home at all... am i a workaholic? ha! maybe. i haven't really been with many workaholics to know it... is there a WA meeting somewhere? haha!

a highlight would be me getting my VERY FIRST credit card! yes, i'm 25 and have just received my very first passport to debt. LOL.

i got to spend extra time with my dog; whom i have sadly neglected those times i didn't go home because of work. ok, let me just explain. my not going back home was by choice. i chose to stay at the office because that's the perfectionist in me. besides, i never would have done that if i didn't love my job; which i do.

during the last month or so, i've actually been hunting for jobs... not very successful though. something tells me it's karma. i believe in that shit, ya know?


on a more serious note... i've been a victim of office politics. never thought it would happen to me; never imagined it would destroy the very core of my being too. it made me feel worthless and undermined. what's worse was that my own boss made it clear he didn't see eye-to-eye with me. a lot of my friends have told me to leave my company, but i can't because i really love my job. i love what i do, i love my friends there. no wonder ELIZABETHTOWN has been my favorite movie lately. for those who missed this cameron crowe masterpiece, elizabethtown is about drew baylor (orlando bloom), a twentysomething shoe designer who gets fired because his design cost his employer $1 BILLION. on top of that, he finds out that his father died. he then goes to kentucky (where the wake was being held) and meets claire (kirsten dunst), a feisty flight attendant, who dutifully reminded drew to "not miss 60 B".

anyway, claire says this of drew's shoe fiasco: "So you failed. Alright you really failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You failed. You think I care about that? I do understand. You wanna be really great? Then have the courage to fail big and stick around. Make them wonder why you're still smiling." which i believe is one of the greatest movie quotes ever. kudos to you, mr. crowe!

ruby and dean = HOT!!!






coz they're super and natural ;)

hmm... where do i begin??? well, let me just COUNT the ways, k?

1. JENSEN ACKLES and JARED PADALECKI - could they have cast two other HUNKS such as these? i don't think so!

2. the writing - the writing team for this show is at par with another fave show of mine (that's considered such a cult fave, i might add = BUFFY)... excellent story and subplots

3. recurring characters - ruby, bobby, bella, ellen, jo, meg, yellow-eyed demon, dad... they're really something!

4. did i say the 2 main leads are extremely scorching HOT???

5. i'm sure i can come up with more than 5 reasons, but i'm pressed for time here so let me just say this: supernatural may be a scary whatever show, but at the heart of it are these 2 brothers willing to duke it out with evil and sacrifice themselves in the process. i highly recommend watching seasons 1-3. you won't regret it!

being heroic is not exactly what it's cracked up to be


why do i love heroes? let me count the ways... hee! ok, so there might not be a LOT of reasons, but everytime i watch it, i just fall in love all over again...

1. the writing is fantastic! tim kring was so on the money when he wrote this. i'm sure he's a big x-men fan; i mean, look at the way these characters are played out... claire is invincible = wolverine is that you? peter can absorb powers = rogue-ish... he can also RETAIN those powers and even move things with his mind (professor xavier)... the nuclear guy (forgot his name)has ties to pyro... i have yet to see a charcter who has the same powers as storm (maybeisaac mendez, since his eyes turn white too) i dunno...

2. but with the start of season two, we're introduced to new characters --> VERY INTERESTING ones at that. first, there's the infamous takezo kensei... played by the wonderful david anders from alias fame. i love him!!! this show is so getting a boost for the number of really cute, hot guys in it! then there's the much-awaited return to TV by none other than veronica mars herself, kristen bell! :) she's elle; a really shady character, but i love her nonetheless. even before i watched an episode with her in it, i've loved the fact that she's even IN the show; so it was a treat that she's a bad guy. hehe! then there're maya and alejandro --> brother and sister running from honduras to new york to find a "cure" for Maya's "disease".

3. did i say they have hot, hot, HOT guys in this show?

4. who knew takezo kensei had powers? and he seems not to age as he changes his name to one "adam monroe" (the other big bad for this season). who's the other one you ask?

5. why, no one else but SYLAR himself!

6. coolest new power? Elle's and Maya's... Maya's is kinda creepy and freaky, but it serves its purpose: IT FREAKS YOU OUT!

7. coolest power ever? peter's. he absorbs and RETAINS others' powers. how friggin' COOL is that???

8. oh, and milo ventimiglia is incredibly HOT in this season! :) yowza!

the magic of a high school musical




i would have to be honest and say that i was one of the critics of this tv-movie. when it first came out, i just ignored it. i thought it was for kids (Disney produced it, hello?) and that it was just a passing faze. WRONG. dead wrong. i decided to watch it and BOOM! I LIKED IT! actually, more than like, i LOVED it!

a complete turnaround, yes. but if you watched it, you'd love it too. well, that depends. if you love moulin rouge, justin timberlake and all the other musicals out there, then you'd like this too.

the music was the one that surprised me the most. they weren't cheesy or corny or anything like that. they sounded good. in the first installment, the songs WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR and START OF SOMETHING NEW and BREAKING FREE, the duets for the two leads have all been really good and really stand out. STICK TO THE STATUS QUO and WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER - songs by the cast - have both been lyrically-driven and they know what they're talking about".

the 2nd movie has been a real treat :) from the very beginning, WHAT TIME IS IT welcomes summer and says goodbye to school work :) the beat and melody and transition has all been well-crafted by the musicians and choreographers - some of it apparently coming from the kids themselves :)

WORK THIS OUT is the most fun of the songs as it really breaks into that "musical/dialogue" song mode. the music was made for a male singer (ZAC EFRON) but the cast joins in on the fun :) YOU ARE THE MUSIC IN ME - my favorite - is the theme of the entire franchise. it speaks not just of young love, but of love itself. the lyrics jump out at you like nothing else, and the music is the most affecting. zac and vanessa give life and soul and power to the song, which gives it its dignity and integrity. had it been sung by any other singers, it may have fallen flat on its face.

vannessa hudgens' GOTTA GO MY OWN WAY is a sad, sad, sad love song, but she gave it its power. coupled with zac in the ending part of the song, it works. they talk about missing each other and not letting go, but mostly it talks about this one girl's independence, not going with the flow; something all young people should go by nowadays.

EVERYDAY is a touching and enlightening song. it speaks of hope, love, and being true to oneself. loved it :) ALL FOR ONE is this really fun and lively song. perfect for summer! whenever i hear it, i'm reminded of the beach boys for some reason :)

all in all, the movies have been a really good addition to pop culture. we would not be the same without them :) go and watch it (whether with your kids or nieces or nephews or by yourself) - i'm sure you'll enjoy! ;)

justin on oprah :)

my favorite OTH episode because of the coda song.. LOOK AFTER YOU by THE FRAY and because of the quote:

"Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard but if you look
close enough, you can find hope in the words of children,
in the bars of the song and in the eyes of someone you love.
And if you're lucky, if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet,
the person you love decides to love you back."


perfect example of video killing the radio star

this is my favorite justin song ever, but i was so disappointed with the video. see for yourself:

my favorite mtv movie awards moment. ever.

for all wentworth miller fans like me

english, fitz or percy

walk away - paula de anda


no, that's not a muffin brand or a selection of band names for a really old age range... for TV buffs and couch potatoes like me, that's actually a part of the concept of a really smart, adrenaline-pumped tv show called PRISON BREAK. i have to say that i'm really, really, REALLY skeptical when it comes to really good TV shows because i don't believe in "all the hype". so when this show first came out, i thought it was a fluke because of the pretty boy being capitalized with it. so i didn't watch it.


wrong move.


shoulda watched it, dumbass! now i know what i've missed: excellent plot, greatly-molded characters (they do evolve, believe it or not -- they didn't call it prison break for nothing) and yeah, wentworth miller is hot!


one thing that caught my attention was the primary plot: younger brother actually plotted to have himself jailed for shooting a gun in a bank-robbery gone bad... to save his elder brother from getting executed for a crime he didn't commit. harrowing? not so much. attention-grabber? a little. but the desperation in it was what held me. it actually made me think. would i do that to my own family if it at all happened?


michael scofiled is the structural engineer who concocted that plan. and gosh darn it, he succeeded! everything from the bolt he needed to get in and out of his cell to the VERY well-designed tattoo on his whole upper torso... who woulda thunk??


season 1 grabbed me. and i hope that to those of you reading this, you get the urge to either buy a copy or borrow it from someone who has. trust me, the whole 22 episodes went by like that. season 2 just ended in the states and i've seen bits and pieces already (i can't seem to catch the one showing in C/S channel... GRRRR!) -- and DAMN IF IT'S NOT GOOD. the finale kicked me! if there's another show other than ONE TREE HILL that you should check out, it's this one. and coming from me, that's a lot!


how every summer should be

there goes my life

wow! where do i begin? so the last post i had was back in... AUGUST????? yah. right. august. ok. so i've been REALLY busy. scratch that. extremely tired even to just write/type my feelings and thoughts and whatevers in here. but boy, did i miss it. so here goes...

i'm in love. definitely. absolutely. confirmed. good part, i see him everyday. bad part? he's married. with a kid. uh huh. or should i say uh-oh? you get the idea... or not. well, whatever. i just wanted to say it out loud. shout it from the mountaintops... or skyrise as it were. no mountains here. just buildings, malls, condos... ok, babbling. but i just realized that what i'm feeling now is the same thing i've felt when i was trying to figure out my feelings for my boyfriend. ok. did i not say i had a boyfriend? YUP. boyfriend. lover. partner. whatever you wanna call it. so there. long story short --> i'm in love with a man who's got a wife and kid (seems happy enough) and i have someone who loves me who i know i also love... talk about the tangled web we weave.

there's this quote i got from a forwarded text message: "it hurts when the person you love loves someone else and all you can do is continue loving him, watch him from a distance. you just walk away and say to yourself, "there goes my life"... it actually summarizes what i feel exactly. as of this moment, right now. every single freaking day. i go to his office and i'm reminded that he has a life with another woman. a seemingly happy life. eats up at me, really. i just am SO confused and paranoid and overwhelmed. i dunno why i'm working anymore. am i working for myself or for him or because of him? am i going insane? or am i just stupid? ok. don't answer that.

so many things have happened to me since i last posted... there was this incident with a co-worker who was fairly close to him and we got into a sort of falling out. i say "sort of" because i had NO IDEA what the fuck her problem was. and so i totally felt it that he was taking sides when that happened and i really hated him for a while. it was confirmed because apparently, other people felt the same way, or at least saw that he does take sides. bad trait to have, but i guess that's him.

so anyway, we've moved from one building to another (temporarily) and now it's been KINDA easier to see him everyday. i miss him, in the way that i don't really get to hang out with him anymore; our mode of communication is through instant messaging... which inadvertently, is the highlight of this blog. simply because he actually admitted he had a crush on me on said IM. of course when he wrote that, my heart skipped a beat, my knees went weak, i freaked out in my head, i tried so hard not to scream and i just totally went insane! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! if you knew me, you'd be laughing hysterically now. so yah. that made my week. maybe my year. i dunno.

and then there's this thing about getting people to volunteer to be OICs (officer in charge) and i was told by one of my co-workers that i should do that, i told her, i need to hear it from him. i need to know that he needs me. because there's this other girl at work, someone i USED to be close with and now for some weird reason, we've drifted apart. i just know things like that. you get caught up in your own world and next thing you know, months had gi=one by and you're not the same people as you were the lats time you were together. and i feel like people are pitting us against each other. i mean, he's really, really impressed with her and that just makes me green. yah, ok, envious. it just kills me. and now, people are pushing me to do this OIC thing, when the one person whose opinion matters the most wouldn't even open up a conversation about it with me. which just blows.

gosh it feels so good writing stuff down. not keeping it bottled up inside, ya know? coz THAT would really kill you. yah huh it's true.

so ok. maybe i'll shut up and save the rest for this month. hopefully with my upcoming VL, i get to fill this up some more. toodles!

pends... choices... and OB

hmm... where to start? well, for starters, i can't get my work out of my mind (whoa, isn't that a song?) i mean, i just wanna help the people that i've been talking to get to a quick and easy resolution for their problems. i mean, i've been so SWAMPED with work nowadays! i mean, my voicemail EVERY freakin' DAY is like 22!!!!!!!! then there're the emails, the escalations, the research on their issues, the emails to the sales reps and their supervisors... i just need a break i think. and lately, i've just been to tired to even get up. i mean, it takes a LOT of effort for me to wake up and get going... but i LOVE my job! i just... i can't give it up (i know that now) but each day that passes is like another one closer to making a decision in getting that dream that's not even completely my own and another day that i'll miss.

then there's this SERIOUS infatuation with a co-worker/boss/married guy with a kid/has a really cute butt/is really H-O-T-T/my dream guy/huge flirt/really smart and funny!Ü i just can't stop thinking about the guy and now, it's getting even worse cause i work for/with him and i see him everyday and it's driving me nuts and i just want to have sex with him to get it over with! whew! there. i said it. well... wrote it. in a blog. online. on the world wide web. damn.


did i mention i bought an ipod? and now i want to upgrade it? haha! i'm just obsessed with music! aahh! justin timberlake's new song "sexy back" is like da bomb! he's like, so flexible and so knows what he's doing and timbaland helping didn't hurt at all. and speaking of timbaland, he has a song with nelly furtado too, "promiscuous"... hawt! ;) then there's jessica simpson's song. public affair. why i like it, i don't know, but it has that whole madonna-80's vibe to it... hmm... whatever..... went shopping again! haha! love it when my money goes somewhere. bought a jacket, shoes, boots, a bag, jewelry...

and now, because of my lust for this one guy, i'm in a "love song" mood... downloading everything from shanice to jennifer love hewitt to mariah carey... wow. this guy's pretty amazing cause he's made me do something i haven't done in a long time... it's complicated, kids. go to sleep! ta-ta!
