Freemasons or Vampires?

Which one would you rather watch on the big screen?

Just read a post about an upcoming movie based on Anne Rice's The Tale of the Body Thief... and I just couldn't help but be excited about it. ^_^


It's been quite a while since we've had something from the Goth Queen herself and my heart is all aflutter about the prospect! And I've read in some fan sites that they're petitioning for this pretty Swedish singer to play Lestat.

His name is Martin Rolinski... and he sure does look the part. He's so pretty, I thought he might not be straight. But he is. He's married and has a cute baby girl. Hehe.


But the question we fans of the Vampire Chronicles should really be concerned with is, "Can he act?" Well, whoever the producers might get to play Lestat, let's all hope he'll be able to both "look and act" the part to perfection. *crossing fingers*

In other news, I got wind of a rumor that Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol will cross over onto the big screen, much like its predecessors The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons did.


Well, its predecessors were certainly good tomes. I can't say the same thing about The Lost Symbol though. I didn't like the book much. It was exciting in some parts but in the whole, it was a bit confusing and too mumbo jumbo-ey for me. And, in my opinion, the villain was a bit too predictable and pathetically delusional to be scary at all. I still love Robert Langdon's first two adventures though, so I guess I won't write Dan Brown off my reading list just yet. :)

A blessed month... this one we call January

Many of my friends and some of my family were born this month. I do not exactly know if they were born on gloomy or sunlit days. But I do know this, my world has been made more beautiful because they were. More specifically, four of my most favorite people in the world were January babies. *Bella Dona* (10th) She is one of the wisest and kindest people I know. She has both been a staunch supporter and chastiser in my world. She transforms into one or the other from time to time, whichever I need the most at that time. And she is among the first to turn 31 in our batch this year. Hehehe! But never you mind, Don. 31 is just a number. What matters is that your heart is in the right place. Right? Right! :D *Lovely Lola Natang* (25th) She was my first ally ever since I came out and greeted the world with my annoying baby cries. She was the one who first took care of me when my Mama immediately went back to work after my natal day. And she was always the first to enthusiasticall...

The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick

If you're one of my cyber friends, you'd think I barely read these days because of the lack of book posts I've done lately. But actually, I'm still at it... at a much slower pace, albeit. But I'm still at it. I'm just so overwhelmed with other stuff that I barely have time to write for fun, which I think is quite sad. Downright depressing sometimes, I tell you! Anyways, the last book I've finished--that I could still remember--is The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick. I've had this book for years. You see, I collect books I think I want to read and just dump them in boxes whenever my bed becomes too crowded and start to smell like an old library. So I have tons of books I've had for years but never really read. Lately though, I've been rummaging inside the aforementioned boxes because people have been asking to borrow some of my books. And the nerd in me gets excited when I get to convince people to read... so rummaged the boxes, I did. And in ...

Getting sunburned in Daanbantayan

I went to this nice resort in Daanbantayan for a weekend trip last month. And no, this is not the island, this is still within the main island of Cebu. Ley and I took the bus. This is not the bus terminal. I took this at one of the pit stops. :P It's been so long since I took the public bus somewhere that I forgot you buy the ticket while the bus is already running, not before you board the bus. Yup, I was a bit of an ignoramus that day, or a really amnesiac person. Haha. Anyways, while we were on the bus, I fell asleep. And since I took the window seat, this  was what happened... And it hurt like the dickens!!! :(   But the place was lovely.  We arrived at the resort around noon.  The place was lovely and I couldn't stop taking pictures. :D ... even when the weather got a tad gloomy late that afternoon. When dusk came, I was excited to take some twilight shots, which are among my faves. The next day, Ley and I took more...
