that doesn’t make sense, i know. i’m that befuddled as to how people can’t seem to believe pia toscano was eliminated this week.
alrighty, it’s idol time for me today…

dolce & gabbana runway photos from coco’s tea party.
man, how much i used to love stars. it was a minor obsession. i say minor because i wouldn’t die for them, but obsession nonetheless because i spent good money to acquire them and a lot of effort to stick small luminous stars all over my room’s ceiling and all four walls. they were all over me in the form of jewelries, clothes, downloaded logos (remember those pixelated things in the 90′s?), school supplies and tons of doodles that seem to ooze out of every page of every subject notebook.
i’m still very fascinated by stars, though i don’t have the natural inclination to doodle them as often anymore. but i could just imagine how my old self would have burst into spontaneous broadway song at the sight of dolce & gabbana’s a/w 2011 collection.
ashton was sent packing. i knew it was one of the wildcard picks who will go last night, but i was hoping it was… well, thia. i’m sorry, fellow pinoys who are going to vote like crazy for her into the top, but i don’t find her fun to watch at all. ramiele and jasmine in past seasons, while they definitely stayed longer than they really deserved, were at least interesting.
top 12. casey abram's head cut-out. is someone trying to sabotage him? oooh conspiracy theory. i'm joking.
anyway, next week is — ta-da! song from the year you were born week. sometimes i wish they come up with other themes, because this one, though innovative when it was used the first time, is starting to get old for me. but i must say it’s quite fun looking through hits the year you were born.
i haven’t been watching idol as much as i used to. because now i have this thing called “job” that keeps getting in the way of things…
steven tyler, jennifer lopez and randy jackson. steven is always great to watch, but it wasn’t until the other night when they had to bleep him a few times did he become a thrill to listen to, because i wish he were more scathing in his remarks. wait… he was bleeped for things he said that are the exact opposite of scathing remarks; he’s just too kind most of the time. jlo, well, she’s like the next paula abdul, but everyone who knows me knows that there is only one paula in my books. and randy… oh, randy. i think this year he is beginning to sound sensible. is it because he’s the veteran judge?
i miss simon.
after a decade of watching it live, i’m missing the 2011 one. i used to pull a no-show at work for this, but after my extended leave, perhaps another rest day was too much to ask.
the worst part of this is the primetime telecast here in fiji is way past my bedtime. yep, i’m like a grade school kid who needs to be in bed at a certain hour. it’s called discipline, bitches. a.k.a. best skincare routine.
why i’d hate missing this year’s oscars: if trent reznor wins best original score for his work in the social network, i would miss seeing him accept an oscar. who would want to miss that??
actually, he looked like this…
water for elephants, the historical novel about a traveling circus set in depression-era u.s., easily one of the best novels i’ve read in my life (my very quick review here), is being adapted for the big screen as we speak. of course, if you are one of the bat-sh** crazy robert pattinson fangirls, you know this by now.
the book, written by sara gruen, itself has gained a following even before talks of a movie adaptation surfaced. but when it was confirmed some time ago that mr. edward cullen himself was playing jacob, the following increased probably ten-fold thanks to the world’s most ravenous fans.
and i just wrote about andrew garfield in the previous entry. one of the most anticipated movies of the year involves 1) our future spider-man, 2) the golden standard of male pop artists and 3) the guy who gained our affections fighting zombies.
the social network, based on ben mezrich’s book the accidental billionaires: the founding of facebook, a tale of sex, money, genius and betrayal, premiers october 1 this year. that’s right, facebook. your favorite cyber hangout has a founding story rich enough for a red carpet premier in tinseltown. a history from six long(?) years ago.
the wait is finally over. taking the place of tobey maguire as peter parker in one of the most lucrative movie franchises in history is andrew garfield.
fiona “fi” glenanne (gabrielle anwar), the “trigger-happy ex-girlfriend” of lead character micheal westen (jeffrey donovan) in the successful spy series burn notice is savvy, sexy, cool, and there is a little war-mongerer in that tiny bikini body that makes her the boon of enemies. but what is there to fear in a munitions expert when it comes in this smoking package?
sweet sixteen! both dakota and saoirse turned sixteen this year. and now that they have come of age, i would really love to pit one’s style against the other.
