No. No, you can't... STOP. Please don't go away. Please? No one's ever stuck with me for so long before. And if you leave... if you leave... I just, I remember things better with you. I do, look. P. Sherman, forty-two... forty-two... I remember it, I do. It's there, I know it is, because when I look at you, I can feel it. And-and I look at you, and I... and I'm home. Please... I don't want that to go away. I don't want to forget.

Watched Hellboy with sibs last night --
Had dinner at this Korean BBQ restaurant in Greenhills Shopping Center (we had my youngest bro pick out the resto) -- interesting food. No, we did not try the Kimchi. Had dessert at Goodies and Sweets -- "yum!" as usual -- we tried their Chocolate Lava Cake -- it's a cake with a truffle in the middle. When you order it, they heat the cake so the truffle inside melts (the "lava" part of the cake) and it's served with vanilla ice cream. It reminded me of souffle, I don't know why.

I enjoyed Hellboy -- Ron Perlman was perfect for the role. (Am glad del Toro and Mignola stuck to their guns and insisted on casting him for the role. Took them six years daw to convince the producers that Perlman was their guy...)

Now I want to read the Hellboy TPBs but we don't have them in the store -- ~sigh~ Oh well ^_^

So many movie trailers --

Am looking forward to:
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
King Arthur
The Day After Tomorrow
Troy
Around the World in 80 Days

For Fellow Capricorns, our horoscope for today (from Yahoo Astrology) --
No matter who you're with, and whether you're feeling platonic or romantic love, you'll be doing quite a bit of hand-holding tonight. Don't forget to light the candles and put on some nice, soft music.

Am currently reading Sophie Kinsella's Confessions of a Shopaholic -- M calls this "chick lit". I can somewhat relate to Rebecca's need to accumulate material things -- I enjoy shopping (especially when you have money ^_^). I find it weird, though, how she can continue to think of shopping when she is in debt.

It's an interesting read -- I'm told there are follow-ups to this. I'm not sure I'll read those na. (one book is enough capitalism for me ^_^)

Next on my list -- Wendelin van Draanen's Swear to Howdy

For people who will find themselves in the Ortigas area this Saturday afternoon --
A theater group is staging Man from La Mancha in Podium at 4pm. Yes, it's free. ^_^

And replies to the tagboard posts:
Laika: Am doing okay. "Busy" with store stuff ^_^
Cuppkeyk: Visit us sa store and play! It's really fun and people who are familiar or play RPGs will appreciate the humor. ^_^ (And MET group is the Metropolitan Theater Group, based in Loyola Heights)
Gabs: How are you? Hope you're feeling better. ^_^
Mahar: We handle stress poorly? hmmm....
