Just in time for Halloween

Having two days off is quite a treat for me these days 'coz it's not every day you're forced to stay at home and rest, especially when you're just new to the job. Well, you have to somehow impress the boss, right? So they'd think you're worth keeping, so to speak. 


So what did I do during the first two non-working days of November? I washed "some" of my laundry (because I have more than a heap and I don't have enough space to hang them all to dry), and I binged on TV. Yes! I watched the tube almost non-stop. Haha. On top of that, I just discovered two new very enchanting shows; Grimm and Once Upon a Time... and I was as giddy as a little girl waiting for her parents to get home with a tub of yummy chocolate ice cream. 


Grimm is about a cop who turns out to be a descendant of supernatural profilers... people who catalogued supernatural creatures and hunted those that are dangerous, sort of like peacekeepers between humans and supernatural creatures. The pilot episode was awesomely exciting. I actually jumped out of my skin a couple of times. :D


Now, Once Upon a Time is more storybook charming than Grimm and actually more enchanting. It's about a town in Maine called Storybrooke where the residents are amnesiac fairytale characters who were banished to our world by Snow White's Evil Queen. Only two episodes are out so far, but I can already see this is going to be one of those charmingly cute epic stories I would adore. Plus, I love Ginnifer Goodwin and Jennifer Morrison... such lovely and talented ladies, these two. :D


Blessed be, everyone!

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 ...

Pardonnez-moi

It has never been much of a secret to people, or to myself, that I can be quite brutal when stating facts. Sometimes, I'm just too impatient to find ways to skirt around hurtful words and just bluntly say things that pop into my head. In short, I'm usually tactless. Other times, I'm just plain careless. But contrary to what most people probably think of me, I don't like nudging people's sensibilities. I don't like stepping on other people's toes either. And this might be a hard concept to grasp, but some people do know how to make up their own minds... and stand by them--come hell or high water. And I am one of them. I don't know why?! But with every set of friends I make, this concept seems to be quite hard for them to swallow. Why?! I just want to dodge those seemingly inescapable monikers "bitch" or "ice queen" for a change. Is that so hard to comprehend?! Yes, I know. Some people find it irresistible to goad me because I'm a p...

Funny Day

This surprised me when I pressed "home" on my net browser.  Strange, but cute. ^_^ Grazie, Google! I guess? And no, I still don't celebrate it. Haha!
