Announcements.

I am happy to announce that I have started to read the book. I am not gonna comment on it because I am afraid that I dont deserve to comment on it yet. Paulo Coelho is a writer that captures the beauty in life's idiosyncrasies. And I should stop talking because I might not be able to contain my excitement. The only reason why I'm posting this is because I'm just so happy that I'm not reading anything that's law school related. At least for the next two days. Then I shall start to review for the midterms. Unlike last sem, i refuse to cram.

Also, I am overwhelmed by my discovery that a lot of people watched Love Actually during the break. [duh, it's in Star Movies Euns!] I know I talked about the flick gazillions of times already but I will never get tired of writing about how it never fails to make my heart go, "All I want for christmas is you..." all the time. I am now predicting that in the next years, there will be a proliferation of Love Actually fanatics and it will eventually be immortalized and will rise to the level that was achieved by let's say... My Bestfriend's Wedding or Sleepless in Seattle or Somewhere in Time or uhmm... Casablanca. But I am also predicting that it will be the official love story of the Christmas season. Unlike the movies that I mentioned in the preceding sentence, (eww, it sounded like i was reciting an article in the civil code, haha) Love Actually will be watched not by singles and couples or any lovestruck person during Valentine's Day but during the Holidays. What did I accomplish in making such a prediction? Nothing. So?

Also, Bob Ong has a new book, Stainless Longganisa. Havent bought one but I'm quite sure that it's as hilarious if not more than hilarious than his past books. Let us support Philippine Literature. I'll write something about it in the near future. I got into a conversation with Ana about how unfortunate it is that not a lot of people support our local writers. The books are way cheaper (think UP Press) but never less brilliant.

Yeah, here's to our "wasted hearts"-- indeed, all of us have our crazy moments. But thankfully, like that character from Love, Actually, we also learn to say: "Enough." -Peej B.

To end my entry, let make one last announcement. I found another blog that's worth linking to. It's Somewhere I Have Never Travelled by Peej Bernardo. So if you guys aren't doin anything and you're tired of reading the exploits of your favorite budding anorexic, I recommend that you go to his blog. He's a better writer. Haha.
