• On Eclipse And Cheating
  Posted on July 4, 2010 07:00PM by Trixie Reyna, Cosmo.ph Managing Editor | 13 Comment/s »
  
  
  By now, I’m sure most of the Twi-hards among you, Cosmo chicks, have seen Eclipse starring Kristen Stewart, the gorgeous Robert Pattinson, and the hot Taylor Lautner—if only for those two men I’ve just mentioned. It was lucky the movie opened on a non-working holiday, and I spent a good portion of that day at The Podium cinema for the block screening of the movie care of Jollibee (in line with the launch of their Eclipse tumbler promo—I got one with Edward and Bella on it). I saw the lines for tickets everywhere else—then and over this weekend--and it seems all tweens of Manila were in the cinemas; practically every Eclipse screening was sold out.
  
  

  
  

  
  I must admit I really just wanted to see the movie to stare at Rob’s face and drool over Taylor’s abs. I’ve read the book, and I really wasn’t expecting to be blown away by the story. But since it has been two years since I first read the book, and a lot has happened since; I didn’t expect I’d actually get to think of other (serious) things besides hot male bodies and gorgeous faces. The Edward-Bella-Jacob triangle got me thinking about cheating, no matter how weird that sounds.

  It's been over a month since I got married and I'm loving every single day as a married woman. There are so many things I want to say about it—the wedding, the honeymoon, and fixing up our starter home...but maybe I'll just let the photos speak for themselves!
  
  

  

  
  Our wedding picnic was held at the Ateneo de Manila High School Campus, where Ryan has taught for the past ten years. It was hot as hell, but the big old trees provided enough shade and shelter, and a soft breeze picked up in the afternoon that put everyone in a cool, laidback mood. We got the caramel-colored vintage Volkswagen from Don Roberto's Bridal Cars.

  I'm not a hardcore Neil Gaiman fan. In fact, except for the more popular graphic novels and comic books he's created, I'm largely unfamiliar with his work. Still, one of my favorite characters created by Neil Gaiman is definitely Dream, the embodiment of inspiration and wonder found in the pages of his Sandman series.
  
  During Cosmo's interview with the famed writer, our Features Editor, Sam Echavez, asked him about his thoughts on pursuing our passions. His reply: "I'd tell everybody to pursue your passion. Those who have passions, we are the lucky ones. If you like painting, for God's sake, paint. If you like writing, write."

• My Return To Saturn

  I got to spend a relaxing time in Boracay for three days recently, and despite it being a press junket, it was still a fun time to unwind and meet other press people. We were a small group of five, which was why it was easy to bond and talk about anything, even if we were from different publications.

• Why Being Fearful Is Never Cool

  Here's a confession: Contrary to popular belief, I'm not exactly a fearless female. Fun, maybe. But fearless? Not really.
  
  Okay, granted I can be brave when it comes to some aspects of my life (taking risks in love, pursuing what I want, traveling to some faraway destination alone, commuting past midnight). But when I fear something, expect me to get all praning and paralyzed and, okay, a little psycho.
