Torn between war and vampires

Today i just finished two war movies and two books. Yey! I am so worthy of my existence in this world. Well i didn't actually started and finished all four of them today. I am not a super, am slow actually. Am a war movie girl. All those heavy drama war movies from Tom Hanks' Saving Private Ryan, Thin Red Line and Tropic Thunder!!!????? and some more unmentioned films - gives me the peace that we won't be going to war anytime soon. Id watch them over and over again like a maniac thanking God I wasn't born those times. War is gory. Speaking of gory let's move on to vampires shall we? I've finished reading Twilight today. It's not gory, it's cheesy actually. Yummy! Am refraining myself from reading it for the simplest reason that i don 't want to fall into the whole craziness of it. I thought it would be another Harry Potter book that will be impossible for me to relate to, so ill just wait for the movie to come out. Well i did download an e-book of Twilight. I got it on www.scribd.com. Go there. Para sa mga kuripot. hehe. Funny cos i got all four of them. As i was saying, reading Twilight is not a disappointment at all. I can't believe am saying this but am a fan already. Cheesyyyyy! I just wanted to have a taste of it before i see it on a big screen. I know, i know the movie won't capture the whole book but am having my faith that it will be a good Hollywood blockbuster as it already is. I just love the concept of this new approach to vampires, especially virgin vampires. hehe.
Another vampire flashback - remember those handsomest bloodsucking studs of Interview with the Vampire? My Gosh! Lestat, Louise and i can't remember anymore Antonio Bandera's character's name. This got me thinking, on the movie when a female vampire is born or just created their hair turned into this curliest curl. hmmmm. Notice my hair? hm? Claudia? hihihihihihi.
Oh well.
YESTERDAY:
I am married now. Am so over with those pa cute eating dates. hehe
Need those energy to keep up.

One Book and a Big Messy Hair

Just finished a book in three days. Usually i read before my real sleep for about two hours. Because i can't sleep unless i read. That is a fact that's been going on since forever. Kai said i don't really intend to sleep that's why i read????? I dont know the truth to that, hmmm maybe?
It's been a long time since i made a book review, that is because....
Oh well i discovered a new author am gonna abuse till he's nothing more to give. Andre Dubus III. Am an Oprah Book club member. Well not really. Sort of. Because i tend to buy any book that has a stamp of Oprah on every cover page. I guess am a member?
Moving on...well the book is so good. House of Sand and Fog(National Book Award Finalist, that means am reading a VERY IMPORTANT/must must must must read BOOK of the century ei). I bought it last year, April 18, 2007. That is one thing so me. In every book i buy i make sure i write the date i purchased it. hihihihi.
So the book again, It got me angered, at one point i can hear the beat of my heart so loud that's the only thing i hear while finishing the book. It is saddening, for you'll get to be in the place where the character's bound to act on impulse and the tragedy heightened by their weaknesses and human emotion deep in it's core. It's so funny cos i caught myself saying, "oh don't do that, don't go in there, oh no you're thinking wrong". It's so painful to read, i thought i will never finish cos i don't want to know how the story would end for each of the characters. But i did finish it anyway and i find my self suppressing a tear at the end of the story. Fyi, a tear, this book is so effective to make me cry, cos am a hardcore ice queen, I don't cry.
But one thing bothers me really. In this book, five or six times the author mentioned or included Filipinos in each scene. Really. One time a maid, cleaning lady, a thief, a boy criminal, a doctor and a neighbor. So, go grab one.
Of course the obligatory picture of me...hihihihihih.
