My Thoughts About New Moon
New Moon, the second part of the Twilight Saga is coming out on November 20, 2009. I heard a lot of bad reviews about this one compared to Twilight, so I didn’t really rush on reading it. But after watching the trailer, I feel like I have to.
The trailer sort of gave out the few chapters of the book. A scene from the trailer shows that Edward leaving Bella forever for some reason. After what they’ve been through.. WHY! Twilight will not be Twilight without Edward! After that heartbreaking scene, a familiar vampire came to the picture taunting Bella. With Edward gone, who will rescue our damsel in another distress! BOOM! Jacob came running and transformed into a WOLF!
Will there be more action in New Moon? More romance? I have yet to find out!
A lot of things has been said about Twilight. It is obviously a book catered to teenage girls. Most of them fell in love with the character of Edward the romantic vampire specially when the movie came out played by Robert Pattinson . A lot of guys probably won’t admit they read Twilight or even watch the movie. Some of my friends even say they watched it because of their girlfriend and they are not interested to watch it at all.
Oh well, I did read the book and watch the movie on my own prerogative. I am not ashamed to admit it! While reading Twilight, the author was able to make me feel that I am part of the story. It is quite magical to be in Bella’s shoes as I turn each and every page, and I guess this is why most guys don’t bother reading the book at all, because they don’t want to be Bella.
But I don’t care! I will read New Moon and be in the shoes of a very brave character again and experience the mystery of werewolves this time around!

Im Addicted To These Songs
Its been a while since I started to really listen to the current hit songs played in the radio. I sort of hear them while Im sleeping and when I wake up but never really paid attention to who sang the song and appreciate the melody and the lyrics. And obviously one main reason is that I am very engrossed to American Idol during the last few months. This weekend, I finally had time to go and search for these familiar songs I hear everyday and I am very surprised that there are quite a lot of songs currently topping the charts that are really really nice! Heres my top ten songs as of the moment.
5. Miss Independent I know this song has been in the airwaves for quite some time, I just didnt had the chance to go and download it since its not part of the original Year of the Gentlemen album. I was super addicted to Closer and now this spanking great new single from Neyo!
4. No Surprise At first, I find this song a torture, because I hear it 3 times in the evening and in the morning for a span of one hour! I thought the radios here in Singapore has nothing else to play, but I as listen to it now, It is indeed a wonderful song. No wonder it gets requested often.
3. Poker Face Ok.. I admit! I LIKE LADY GAGA! Hahahahah! This song is always at the back of my mind, and if I get the chance, I always hum or even sing to it. The first time I hear the song was in one of the American Idol performances where I didnt really like the song and never really knew who this weird girl Lady Gaga is. But now, I listen to all the tracks on her album and they are all superb!
2. Boom Boom Pow I havent heard a song from Black Eyed Peas since "My Humps. And this song made me love the group once again! I feel like dancing whenever I play this song! Wooohooo!
1. I Gotta Feeling This one doesnt sound very Black Eyed Peas to me. It sounded more techno and disco in the 90s. I love this song! I feel like Im in my College days again! gotta feeling, that tonights gonna be a good night, that tonights gonna be a good good night hooooohoooo!
And oh.. my iPhone finally has songs again! LOL!

Gratitude Journal Day 3
2. I didn't faint despite the very humid weather in the Philippine Embassy.
3. Cooked aroscaldo for my housemates who are both sick.
Singapore: The Lion City
The Lion Head is an icon you will find almost everywhere in Singapore. The symbol that makes Singapore distinct among the South East Asian countries giving the Island inhabitants and foreigners a sense of patriotism.
The Lion Head in this photo is just one among thousands of similar symbol you will find all over Singapore. This photo was shot along Orchard's famous touristic sidewalk. Etched on a bronze surface on top of a 3 foot pole marking the pedestrian, this symbols somehow for me represents the prosperous environment you see in Orchard.
Orchard is one if not the most famous shopping district in Singapore. There are more than 10 shopping centers here as well as most of the five star hotels. Takashimaya, Paragon and Tangs are just some of the trendiest malls along this street bursting a variety of products from Branded Clothing to Memorable Souvenirs. Truly a shoppers haven!
Paint The Sky
I was on my way to the MRT station on a Saturday morning when I suddenly thought of looking up to the sky and was amazed by how the clouds painted the sky. The blue sky looked like a giant canvass where streaks of white paints represented by the clouds spread beautifully.
I quickly took out my iPhone and took a shot of the wonderful scene. I was surprised that despite poor quality of shots I usually get from my iPhone, this one was perfectly beautiful.
This photo made me realize that wonderful things are all around us, waiting for us to give them the appreciation they deserve. This will officially be my first upload on flickr from my iPhone. And just like my friend July, I will try to post one photo a day, not from my SLR but from my iPhone. I just hope I will be able to take something like this again from a 2 megapixel camera phone. Wish me luck!
