Dad's B'day, Blackberry & Love triangle

Tuesday was Daddy's b'day.. We had home-made steamboat for dinner and Boston Cream Pie for Dad's b'day cake (Yummy~!)

For his presents, I bought him a frame, nails & sandwich bag (things he needed) which were wrapped nicely. He didn't know that we had bought him a Blackberry for the REAL present.. *wink*

Blackberry isn't as good as the hype really.. It refused to switch on even with the battery fully charged. It was fine this morning (I even had the chance to play with the new gadget for a while) but it went kaput. Thank God for warranties..

Earlier that day, I had a date with Mr. Boyfie. We went for a movie in TGV WangsaWalk. My 2nd time there, first was with my cousin for Karate Kid. 2nd time around was of course, for Eclipse.. I know it is quite late to watch it 5 days after the premier given that I am reading the books for the third time now. But I'm trying to avoid the crowds.. and to avoid being labeled as Twi-hards. And yeah, the love triangle in the books are less cheesy than the movies.
But the coolest part was of course the fighting scenes, especially when it involves the Cullens.

We voted, the best couple is... *drum rolls*

One word: DISSAPOINTMENT!!
No2, make it 2 words! : DISSAPOINTMENT & CHEESY!! haha

The only good thing is that I got to see them topless, esp the buffed one~!! *drools*
hahahahaha.

Vampire-related stuff

If u've read my post in January this year, you would have known my obsessions with vampire-related story books. (L.J. Smith, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer etc). And I love watching vampire-related movies/tv series as well (Anne Rice's, Twilight, Blade, True Blood..) No, not Buffy.. That was lame.. =P

What was getting me excited is the new TV series on CW, The Vampire Diaries. It is an adaptation from L.J. Smith's Vampire Diaries series.. Yeayhh!! Hope it turns out well though.. Because it could be lame now that all the vampire-related stories are a trend now.

Since we're on this topic, I might as well recommend HBO's original series, True Blood to all you vampire fans out there.. Just finished with 2nd season now. I love the story line and Anna Paquin is such an amazing actress (been her fan since she was in the Piano-1994. She won an Oscar for that one!)

I know I should cut down hours spent watching TV series now that I am in my final year, but some series are just too hard to resist! *wink*

Happy with a tinge of disappointment..

Just watched the ever-awaited X-Men Origins: Wolverine.



I love the X-Men! It kinda revived my childhood, growing up reading the comics, watching the animations and playing video games.. (advantages of having 4 elder brothers).
Overall, I would rate it 9/10. Watching the movie get me all excited with the appearance of familiar characters.
One thing that really disappoint me (thus the -1 point to perfection) was that Taylor Kitsch does not do justice to Gambit. Well, maybe I'm exaggerating because I prefer Gambit when he has shorter hair. *wink*
So far, X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) is the best! 100/10!!!
Anyhoo, I can't wait to see the blooming of the relationship between Gambit and Rogue (Anna Paquin is the best!)

The greatest pair in comic history~! =D



p/s: Hugh Jackman is sexxaaayyy! =P
