My Immortal Love For Vampires

I never realized it until now that I've always had a thing for Vampires. I don't know if it's because they are mysterious, always brooding, dark or if it's the leather jacket that makes them so attractive. But looking back, I've always had a vampire crush. Here's my list of vampire crushes throughout the years.

1994 - Lestat de Lioncourt (Tom Cruise) and Louis de Pointe du Lac (Brad Pitt) in Interview with the Vampire

I know they wear ruffles and killed a poodle in this movie but just look at them?! Who wouldn't have a crush on these blood sucking monsters? I did liked Brad Pitt more because he's the good guy in this film.

1997 - 2001 - Angel / Angelus (David Boreanaz) in Buffy the Vampire Slayer

My first brooding , leather wearing vampire crush WITH A SOUL! C'mon, even Edward Cullen didn't have a soul! He has a dark side but he's trying to make up for it because "The Powers That Be" gave him a soul as punishment. Plus talk about sexual frustrations with Buffy. He cannot make love to her because if he did, he'll reach true happiness and that will make him bad again most likely cause an Apocalypse! Take that Bella and Edward!

I kinda like Spike (James Marsters) too towards the end of Buffy so I'm going to add him to my list.

2002 - Lestat (Stuart Townsend) in Queen of the Damned

I remember watching this movie because of Aaliyah. This was a PG 18 movie and I was still in High School when I watched it. I don't remember much about this film anymore except that Lestat is hot and Aaliyah was wearing close to nothing. And blood,  lots of blood!

2003 - Selene (Kate Beckinsale) in Underworld

I know she's a girl but who wouldn't have a girl crush on Selene in this movie?! Look at that body in that leather jump suit! She's rockin' it! I wanna be her! Plus, talk about star crossed lovers with her Lycan boyfriend.

2008-2012 - Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) in The Twilight Saga

I know he is the most un-vampire of all vampires. He sparkles, doesn't have fangs, goes to high school...but he is rich and has a volvo and he's really really cute with all his brooding. I don't really see Twilight as a vampire film but Edward came into my life when I needed a dream guy and he was that! He will forever hold a special place in my heart.

2009 - Damon Salvatore (Iam Somerholder) in the Vampire Diaries

While waiting for the next Twilight movie to come out (New Moon) in 2009, I spent my days watching the first season of Vampire Diaries. Although, I never really like the story line, the only thing that kept my eyes locked on the screen is the very handsome, blue eyed, kinda cocky Damon Salvatore.

2013 - Adam (Tom Hiddleston) in Only Lover Left Alive

Because Hiddles. 'nuff said! hahaha! I have yet to see this film but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna love it the same way I love everything Tom Hiddleston does!

There you have it folks! If you would like to share your vampire crush, you can post them in the comments below. I'd love to hear about it!

Overrated!

The overrated coffee drink! Seriously?! Is it required to take a photo of your drink at Starbucks?

The overrated spread. I don't get the hype?! Or probably I'm just not a huge fan of chocolates.

But lately, this is slowly taking over. I have yet to try this.

The overrated hat! The Fedora!

And the king of Fedora himself, Bruno Mars.

The overrated accessory, the armcandy. Do you really have to wear all your bracelets all at the same time?

If I were to wear one, it will be something a lot simplier like this.

The overrated bag, the classic Longchamp design. Everyone has it, be it original or fake. I do like the limited edition designs though.

The overrated selfie shot, the bathroom selfie. Even I am guilty of this!

The overrated beach destination in the Philippines, Boracay! I know Boracay is almost paradise but c'mon people, we have more than 7,000 islands in the country.

The overrated dog, the shitz tzu.

Awwww.....but I just can't hate that face. Too cute!

What do you think of my list? If you have anything to add let me know. :)

How I wish!!! Happy rainy Monday!

12 ways of celebrating Philippines Independence Day

June 12,  2013 marks 115 years of Philippines Independence from Spain. Here are 12 ways on how to celebrate this eventful day in your own little way.

1. Place a flag of the Philippines on your front door, window or on your car.

2. Wear something Blue, Red, Yellow and White.

3. Why stick to clothes? Nail art is in, try painting your nails with the colors of the Philippines flag or the flag of the Philippines itself. Be creative!

4. Wake-up really early or sleep really late to catch the National Anthem being aired on TV or the radio and really listen to the lyrics.

5. Google the words to Panatang Makabayan. There is a new version of it now if you don't know.

Panatang Makabayan or Patriotic Oath (Philippines)

6. Eat traditional Filipino cuisine all day. Filipino food has a lot to offer! Forget about your diet today!

7. Visit the National Museum of the Philippines. National Museum of the Philippines website

8. Since school is out on this day, join a tour of Intramuros / The Walled City.

Experience Intramuros!

9. Attend a local concert showcasing Filipino talents in your area.

10. If a concert is not your thing, host a dinner party and play Pinoy Henyo and use the Philippines history as a topic. This will also help you brush-up on your history.

11. If you're into sports or games, enjoy a competitive pinoy games marathon with your friends such as sungka, piko, luksong baka, trumpo and feel like a child again. Check out this video clip from RPG Metanoia -  Balik Tanaw Sa Larong Atin

12. Just simply be proud that you're a Filipino.

Why???
