My my my...just realized that I have been missing out on some of the goodies lately when it comes to common entertainments due to my extra crammed-up workloads...luckily now i have the privilege and the time to do some catch up on that department! Starting with movies...
Recently everywhere I go I keep on hearing raves and comments about Twilight the movie. Well, actually I have heard about this best selling novel by Stephenie Meyer turned big hit movie from quite a while ago from the Middle School-High School Library. I have always wondered what's all the big fuss about, but the books were sooo hot and wanted i was never getting any chance to lay my hands on one, until the friggin movie was released!
The "girls" (by that i meant my elementary students) were always asking me if I'm gonna go watch the movie soon. Some moms even told me that it's a must see and some of them even went to see the movie like 4 times! That sure gave me a big push. I got to see this! :) And finally one 'easy' night, I succeeded in dragging Iman mijn liebchen to watch it in EX after work. We got one of the front seaters...(sucks!)but luckily the seat was quite comfy I didn't mind it that much.
To cut to the chase here's what the main idea's about: Twilight tells a story about Bella a girl recently moved in to live with her father in a small town Forks, DC. There she met an interesting guy, Edward Cullen who never failed to surprise her with his extraordinary charms...until Bella found out that he's actually a "vegetarian" vampire. And the story rolls from there. Over all I thought that was a good teen romance. Entertaining with easy on the eyes casts. pretty cool effects, and it lead me to finally gave up, and just buy the damn books. Hehehhe.... Iman as I had predicted thought it was pretty girlie and plain. Aww well, I couldn't really sell the 'Edward Cullen' cuteness charms point on him, I suppose! ehhh, nevermind..
So, yeah...I'm on the first book now out of the 3 that have been released, so far the book offered more detailed graphic in my head...with that cute Edward Cullen from the movie, though...played by Robert Pattinson.
