the first became last...

...and almost missed the trip...

...to think that it was i who...
- first to notice the ad and has actually mistaken bella for hermione
- first subscribed to the film's OST "paramore" ringback (well, i had it for a 3-day free trial)
- first to rant about watching the premiere but didn't get to due to an unscheduled and unauthorized OT for training

i'm talking about twilight. i was able to watch it tonight, finally .
i checked it out first at the mall nearest to the work place with thoughts of catching enough time for a review. my heart skipped a beat when the print ad only displayed keanu and richard gere. so i ran to the nearest mall and checked that it is still showing (only in one cinema and sans the SRO sign that stood out at the box office in the last 11 days).

i was around 15 minutes late so i skipped meal altogether and waited for the break before the last full show to run and grab my favorite large fries, chicken sandwich combo at the north wing, devouring it with gusto during the opening credits.

well, i say that i enjoyed the refreshing story about meyer's breed of vampires:
- who turns more beautiful when hit by sunlight...as opposed to stoker's or rice's
- who lives as a family in a fine house that fits a page in better homes...and not in a coffin in some gloomy cave
- who engages in sport...vampires playing baseball...hmmmm...i thought they're only into hunting
- who has more constraint than the average human who lusts for what not

i must say that i was entertained by it.
and although i can't recall the guitar numbers on the soundtrack, i actually like it when i first heard it.

And the places that edward brought bella to, they all took my breath away (besides the fact that i was grossly distracted by robert's hairy arms which reminds me of...bjork...what were you thinking???). The forest tops with its proud tall evergreens and the waterfalls that drops from an immense height...boy when am i going to see these marvels again (even sans the piggyback ride up the evergreen top)?

wahahaha...you got me there...i think...didn't you notice the 20th century? It is so wrong...that should have been 21st century.. i do't think heroin would already be available during the former...ehehehe..they probably only had cannabis.. :)
