Say YES if you do. Say YES if you don't.

June is nearly a month away and if you’re a fan, you probably know what that means.

June means another battle, another love triangle and another Team Bloodsucker or Team Werewolf scuffle.

The third installment from the Twilight Saga is finally hitting the big screen on June 30, 2010. Eclipse’s many breathtaking and heart pounding teasers are of course googable and can be found in Yahoo and YouTube.

But the thing that ignite the fans reaction is not the trailer itself but is IN the trailer itself. No, it is not Robert Pattinson's hypnotizing voice nor Taylor Lautner's to-die-for abs. As many of you all know, Edward is proposing to the love of his life and therefore must present a ring. Yes, the ring has the most awaited scene in the movie. Thanks to Stepehenie Meyer and Infinite Jewelry Co., fanatics out there can now own a replica of the most talked about piece of jewelry ever since Titanic’s Heart of the Ocean.

The ring is available in these prices:
"fashion" for $35
"fine" for $479
"genuine," for a real diamond ring priced at $1,979


Who knows? Maybe after a 100 years or so, the illustrious ring would be worth millions.

MUST SEE: The Losers

A lot of critics definitely didn't like it but I love it. If you're a fan or at the least bit interested on comic-turned-movie flicks, then you must see this film. They are no superheroes but with the talent and guts they have, they might as well be.

Lock and load, people.

Oh, well. There's still tomorrow.

I've been eying on Sony's e-book for months now. I saw the gadget maybe 2 or 3 months ago and fervently hoped that one day, I would see them at some nearby widget store calling out to me. My waiting didn't wan. My excitement on taking home the thingamajig makes me all anxious and nervous at the same time.

Now, because I feel like I've been waiting for too long. I finally decided to call Sony Philippines and inquire about it myself. I checked a couple of stores way back and the staff knows squat on the subject. After a minute of waiting on the phone, this guy I was talking to said that the Reader was never launched here in the Philippines. Apparently, it's only available in the U.S. and some other country I don't remember. He also said that a number of people have called asking the same thing. At the back of my mind I was thinking "Why the hell is it still in U.S.?". According to him, the management has yet to decide whether it's a yay or nay for the e-book. I think he lost my attention the second he quipped "NOT AVAILABLE".

I wanted to have one because there are books I want to read that are no longer in the market. Ever since Kindle was born, it became a tad easier to get a copy of the classics and archetypal originals.

I guess I'm gonna have to wait a bit more.
Oh, well.

My head hurts and this is the only thing I came up with.

Finding a good Japanese restaurant has always been a challenge for me. Most of the places I've been to either serve mouth-watering sushis or just plain weird sushi wanna-be's. Salmon and tuna are a bit pricey, that I know. But I have this impression that some restos just slice and serve those fillets up -- without even washing them.

One time, I ordered Sake sashimi from this famous sushi place and they tasted so sordid that I can't even swallow them. It was TOO raw for my taste. It was a screaming BLAH! There's not even a word for it.

But enough of pretend sushi bars.

The other day I gave Red Kimono a try and it wasn't what I expected it to be. I honestly thought I'll leave disappointed Thankfully, didn't happen.

The prices are just right. Not steep and not economical either.
The sushis were perfect. They have a very unique menu and a wide variety of sushi and maki. What they have is not something you see everyday, I believe. I just don't like the part where I felt like I've waited an hour for the food to be served.

MUST TRY:

and for this one, make sure you have a thing for jalapeños.

A woman's right to clothe.

I've always fancied a closet of my own. A closet enough for me to walk around when I can't decide what to wear, or a closet so wonderfully beautiful that they're only possible with the help of Pixar or Disney.

I have a lot of clothes and stuff lying around that sometimes I forget that I have them. No, I'm not a disorganized person. My closet is just too small especially with the articles of clothing I have. They're slightly a tad many for their own kind. But let's face it. Women will be women. We sometimes buy impulsively and later realize that we own one like it, or worse, we don't need what we bought in the first place.

Clothes should have a space to breathe. Sometimes the fabric self destructs when kept in storage for so long. And let me just say that things around here are not getting cheaper. How much does a pair of pants cost nowadays? And skirts? And coats? And boots?

HALT.
Shoes however is a different story.

This is not my closet but I wish it were.
Its Carrie Bradshaw's.
OH. What I wouldn't give to have all her lavish clothes...and closet, too.

Would you look at that? I am a girl after all :)

The law is reason free from passion.

My camera phone seemed to have created a folder of its own a couple of days ago. Out of sheer stupidity, I left it running and now I have random blurry pictures in my mobile. Some of the images are hideous, some of them not. I didn't really expect the camera to capture flawless shots on its own but these three I find beautiful...one way or the other.

There.
Its not much but I still think they're something.

Philippines, you are soon to be a Wonderland.

If you don't know John Mayer, you must be living under a rock for quite some time now. If you don't know that John Mayer himself is flying to Manila this May, you must be one heck of an anti-social...or you hate technology enough to rid them off your life for good.

I do like John Mayer but not enough for me to watch him at SM Mall of Asia. The venue, I don't really like. I'm fond of Araneta Coliseum, I feel safe there for some reason. I know a lot of people who anxiously waited for the details of Mayer's concert. That's why I was no way near surprised when I saw a fan page on Facebook named "Lintek! Ang MAHAL ng JOHN MAYER tickets!".

It got me laughing and giggling, not because it was particularly funny, but because it was amusing. Most of the fans of the page are people who can't really afford the hefty tickets. They don't express hate or anger to anyone, though. Just words of dismay and frustration about the expensive tickets and the fact that most of them can't buy any.

This picture I find hilarious and mirthful on many levels:

I don't think its meant to be offensive in anyway :)
