Living Mye Life

I can’t resist my Twilight Saga addiction.  So when I’ve read in some posters that there will be a midnight screening for the movie number 3 of this book at the Mall of Asia, I told hubby we can at least try if we can wait that long.   Since it will be a holiday from work the following day, we decided to give it a try.  We went there at 8pm, bought two tickets and braced ourselves from a long walk around the mall to kill some time. 

We already ate at home so we just looked around to eat dessert.  Hubby joked to treat him to a nice dessert in Häagen-Dazs since it was my payday and he craved for some good ice cream treats.  Oh my, I need to close my eyes while looking at the prizes but I must say their berry cool ice cream shake is the yummiest ever!

We fall in line 1 1/2 hours before the screening time because some people were already in the line and its getting longer every second! I saw some people carrying poster and I forgot to go to the IMAX place where they are having a fire and ice party for Eclipse sponsored by an FM radio station. I only got Jacob, Bella and Edward masks but the poster came from a college stud next in our line, he gave one to me! I’m so thankful :)

We watched Harry Potter 6 movie at IMAX in Mall of Asia last night. Since IMAX has reserved seats, we purchased our tickets two weeks before the show date so we don’t need to endure the long lines at the cinema lobby. Though, I think that Transformers beat HP6 in that area. Being an avid HP reader, of course I knew that the movie will not be that good as the book itself. They just prepare the audience for the last sequel and that is Harry, Hermione and Ron asking a lots of why and who in the end. They don’t even elaborate on why Snape was called the half-blood Prince. And they never gave Albus Dumbledore the grand exit in the movie (the white tomb chapter) after being cursed dead by Snape. While walking home, hubby asked me why is Aragog (the giant spider) doing dead near the house of Hagrid. I’m a good story teller so I explained to him all the cuts and missed of the story lines. This is the 6th movie and maybe I was hoping that they will make it very good this time. Again, I'm a bit disappointed but the special effects is awesome. We should give them that credit. After all, I love Harry Potter period.

When I was passing through the pages of my HP6 book yesterday, I noticed the date hubby first gave it to me (he always do the book reservation in National Bookstore so I can read it first before it leaked in the Internet) and it was dated July 21, 2005. Imagine, 4 years ago! And reading it again feels like I never read it before =)

I’ve heard that they will have 2 parts movie for the book 7. Good luck then, the Deathly Hallows is an 870-pages book and involves lots of action. I just hope they stick to the story in the book this time.

Hubby is such a sweet guy, he already watched the movie (through company sponsored invitation) but he still accompanies me and Aubrey at the Mall of Asia to watch Transformer 2! Now see this movie schedule.

No other movies, just the autobots and the megatrons are there to enjoy!

But what I hated most in watching every mega hit movies is the long line just to buy tickets and the long wait and super long lines before you can enter the movie house. I just wish SM Cinemas would stop doing this. You can’t even stroll around because you have to wait in the line just to have better seats inside. Gosh, why can’t they have a reserved seats process just like in Ayala Cinemas? In free seating movies like that, all your time will be wasted to think you are paying more that the normal movie fees.

These are the long line of people waiting at the entrance last night including us. It will be easier to their customers if they have reserved seating, right? Paging SM Cinemas!

Because I was able to watch Twilight movie just now! First day of showing and it feels really great! Whoa! The Edward Cullen mania were visible inside the movie theater when he first showed up in the big screen. And i admit, I feel like a teenager again (giggling a lot) even when my hubby's beside me. He just smiles coz he knows how far I can "like" a certain Hollywood actors and eventually stop when the fever is over. So, he was kind of used to with me like that =)

So the proof is here and I told him that I will keep this ticket till the last movie of Twilight saga will be shown in theater. And i will place it per every book. How's that? (haha!)

Happy because we went to check some book shelves in the hypermarket and I saw one that I really want and the style, it fits. I sweetly told him that's the one I want for Christmas and he answered that he taught the book set were his gift. But i argue that how are my books without a proper book shelf? He thinks I am being clever but I am =) And so, this weekend, we will buy the book shelf in SM. Yeheey!

See, November is quite a lucky month for me. Let's see how my December would be.
