T-Rex needed

It's only Monday so technically, I shouldn't be doing Tumblr Tuesday yet but this is too cute to pass...

Soooo true.

Done with Season 1. How I Met Your Mother is the shizz! Super mega fuerte! I really enjoyed watching this series. So funny. I like it better than Friends. I know a lot would disagree with me when I say that HIMYM is better than Friends. But in my opinion, it is better than friends. I tried watching Friends but I always fall asleep after a few minutes into it. I dunno, maybe it's because HIMYM is more of my era. Haha.

That, and I crush Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor). In the absence of Chuck Bartowski, I found another fictional TV series character to crush on. He's cute, tall and nice. As with Chuck, I don't why he's having a hard time finding a girlfriend. Actually, it should be easier for Ted to find a girl. Chuck works at the Buy More while he is an architect, so he has edge over Bartowski. I super mega crush Ted Mosby and wish Ted Mosbys exist in real life.

I also like the Ted+Robin are-they-or-aren't-they-in-love-with-each-other love affair. (Uf, that's one long hyphentated crap) I started watching this without knowing that they have this Chuck+Sarah-ish storyline but I'm loving it. However, there's nothing stopping Ted and Robin to be together so why don't they get together? Ted's not a CIA asset and Robin's not a CIA agent, as the case of Sarah and Chuck. They're not like forbidden to be together so what the eff? Anyway, this adds up to the many reasons why I love HIMYM.

Barney's funny. Only because he is on tv. But if Barney were a real person, he would be annoying. I think I know someone who is a fan of Barney... Don, one of my blockmates, was acting very Barney-ish during last Saturday's block reunion. I didn't realize it until I had this HIMYM marathon and noticed that Don was acting very Barney- right from the whaddup! down to the high fives.

And I also love Lily and Marshall. They're such a cute couple. I love the pause-unpause rule!

I just love this series and I love it that each episode is only 20-minutes long. I mean, if I need to leave the house, I can still squeeze in an episode.

I'm in love ♥ ♥ ♥

LOVES IT!

OA na kung OA pero I'm obsessed with eyebrows truly, madly, deeply. They say that the first thing a person notices about someone is the eye. But for me, the first thing I notice is the eyebrow.

AD got this (for free) and she then gave it to me. Her officemate already got the brow powder and the brush but I have the stencils, the brow gel and the tweezer. Happiness ever!

So who wants to have her eyebrows groomed? I need guinea pigs ;)

Pick Flick: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I feel so old. Harry Potter and friends are all grown-up. I feel such a retard. Blech.

I really planned to not watch the movie until I've read the book. But since I was in Megamall the entire day (which is not by choice but by necessity since there's this important document I was waiting for), what better way to kill time than to watch a movie.

Pensamientos sobre la peli:

♥ I am not entirely sure if it has been confirmed that Albus Dumbledore is indeed gay but I read somewhere in the net that J.K. Rowling outed Dumbledore. And so I was a little creeped out by the way Dumbledore held on to Harry during the very first scene of the movie. I do think Dumbledore likes Harry... in that way, if you know what I mean ;) Harry was supposed to meet this waitress after her shift and what does Dumbldore do? He takes Harry on a "mission." During the Horcrux scene in the cave, Dumbledore was supposed to be weak and all but when Harry was dragged underwater by malnourished syokoys, Dumbledore regains strength and saves Harry again. Mess with his boytoy and he'll Stupefy the living daylights out of you.

♥ More evidence that Dumbledore's gay: 1) He knits, and 2) His clothes have sequins on them.

♥ Hermione (Emma Watson) grew up to be a very pretty girl. Wish I could say the same for the boys. Well, it really depends on one's tastes but in my opinion, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) and Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) all didn't turn out as cute as we would have wanted them to be. They killed off the only male eye candy, Cedric Diggory (Robert Pattinson), which is perfectly fine anyway since he was to be reincarnated into a smexxy immortal.

♥ A friend descibed the movie as gloomy. It is. Add dark and depressing to that.

♥ I never really liked Draco Malfoy but I sort of felt sorry for him in this one. I don't think he's really evil. He's all talk and no bite. Sa Tagalog, puro salita pero walang gawa. I'm not sure if he'll have a change of heart in the last book but I wish he would.

♥ "Oh to be young and to feel love's keen sting..." I enjoyed the kids' little love triangles.

Loved the movie and I am feeling the need to read the book right now. But I know this is not yet Dumbledore's end. Super bitin.
