While on leave yesterday, I had the chance to watch the screen adaptation of one of my favorite novel, Love in the Time of Cholera. My husband chanced upon a dvd the other day and decided on impulse to buy it for me. I guess he knew how much I love books-to-movies stuff. Besides, Im [...]

We got to watch the much awaited HP series, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince yesterday. All I can say is that Im left wanting for more… I did not expect the ending to be so “bitin“. I believe a great deal has been omitted in the film. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the [...]

I relish moments like this. A quiet house. HUbby and the kids far deep in dreamland. Having too much of my caffine fix, sleep evades me. Good. Now, I have the excuse of inviting my old friend in to keep me company–my trusty dvd player.
I realize I have some really good movies on hand but [...]

I don’t know about you, folks but I think one of the perks of lying sick in bed (aside from cuddling with Hubby) is having the time to READ. Picking a book was quite a challenge. I had a hard time choosing btween Paulo Coellho, Dan Brown, Nicholas Sparks, and a host of other prevailing [...]
