I’ve developed a crush. Hahaha. I was hooked all week last week watching all the episodes of the new AXN Series Chuck. Yup, finished all 13 episodes in less than 4 days.
Look at him! He’s so cute in a nerdy sexy way. Yova agrees with me, right dear?
Chuck according to Wikipedia is an American action-comedy television program created by Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak. The series is about an “average computer-whiz-next-door” who receives an encoded e-mail from an old college friend now working in the CIA; the message embeds the only remaining copy of the world’s greatest spy secrets into Chuck’s brain.
Charles Irving “Chuck” Bartowski is played by Zachary Levi.
I love the funny moments as well as the odd couple moments of Chuck and Sarah (CIA Agent). It’s a fun watch and a sure hit. I can’t wait for the 2nd season premier!

…In magic.
The most popular illusionist and escapist of all time would be Harry Houdini because he was the very first to try acts which require him to free himself from jails, handcuffs, chains, ropes, and straitjackets, often while hanging from a rope in plain sight of street audiences.
Admittedly even though all kinds of magician’s secrets are revealed on television and print there will always be that mystery to them. Nicholas Sarantakos better known as Criss Angel best known for starring in his own television show, Criss Angel Mindfreak is on a league of his own and may as well be the next Harry Houdini or better.
Angel, an American illusionist, musician, escapologist, stunt performer, and actor is set to appear at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas to perform his most notable illusions which include walking on water, levitating, floating between two buildings, causing a Lamborghini to disappear, surviving in an exploding C4 Crate, cutting himself in half and getting run over by a steamroller while lying stomach down on a bed of glass.
I am such a non-believer of magic and such but watching performances of our modern illusionist like Criss Angel make me think otherwise. There is certainly fascination and awe on my part especially when objects or the people are lifted off the ground!
Cirque Du Soleil is schedule to perform on the 1st of September 2008 and will be featuring CRISS ANGEL called ‘CRISS ANGEL Believe‘. Don’t forget to check it out and to WIN FREE INVITES join the TEXT MESSAGING CONTEST (Text ‘Believe’ to 22122 to win 2 tickets to ‘CRISS ANGEL Believe’).

Ozzy was sick for 3 days and he refused to eat. He kept on crying or whimpering or just simply acting up just so I won’t leave his side. At one point I had to bring him to the CR with me when I peed because he won’t stop crying.
Thank God for television and videos. Our Sony Bravia HD TV saved the day. Good thing the HDMI switch made it easier for us to switch between cable and/or HD DVD. It’s amazing how technology are these days. Although I’ll just have to make sure to limit Ozzy’s TV time because too much is never a good thing.
Finally saw the movie Sex & The City yesterday! In attendance were JR my BFF who is likened to the wind, always there but seldom “seen or heard”, Yova the Diva in an orange dress & patent red Janylyn pumps, Gil the “I am always busy” guy, Ebbe the heartbroken & cheated-on-so-I’ll-pour a-whole-bottle-of-beer-on-my-body while-in-the-dance-floor fashionista, Panyang the pretty single girl who is bored with her life, Ronna with her pink Gucci bag, Fred formerly known as Freda and Dwight & Rene the hot couple.
If you don’t want to know how the movie went then don’t read the next 2 paragraphs.
Of course the movie was fabulous, great clothes, shoes & handbags. No surprise there. The story was pretty simple which revolved around the foursome’s lives. Carrie was getting married to Mr. Big after 10 years of dating, Miranda was battling infidelity in her relationship with Steve, Charlotte was finally pregnant and Sam was living in L.A. trying to please a man therefore forgetting herself in the process.
Anyway, the once simple wedding became “bigger than BIG” and freaked John James (Mr. Big’s real name, can you believe it, I never knew that) out! Carrie was jilted. My favorite scene was when they were in the street and Carrie was smashing her bouquet into Mr. Big’s face. Priceless. Anyway…fast-forward 6 months later, yaddi yadda yadda they eventually realized that “forgiveness is forgiveness” and they kissed and made-up. Carrie & Mr. Big got married in City Hall in her originally planned simple white vintage suit made my a ‘nobody’.
The movie did not exceed my expectation but I enjoyed it immensely especially because I was with my friends and it was really nice to spend some time with them once in a while. I enjoyed it so much I even forgot to ask Ronna where she had her acne treatment before because I may be having break-outs in my forehead.
How was your weekend?
It’s refreshing to hear that ANTM’s Cycle 10 winner, Whitney is plus sized and considered as a Supermodel. She is the first one out of the 10 cycles to emerge on top despite being on the full side. Realistically speaking she’s actually on the normal side. Her body is considered hot to many. Besides she has a gorgeous face. So she should be given equal opportunity to be a supermodel like any other skinny model out there.
I can’t wait to see her in the cover of Seventeen or any major publication wearing couture gowns, plus size lingerie , tops and various swim wear.
It’s good that models are no longer boxed into the Size 0 category because this creates a wrong perception especially to the young girls watching these ladies in the TV, print ads and magazine covers. There are too many horror stories we hear about young anorexic girls starving themselves to death just to look ‘perfect’.
It’s about time we start changing that perception before it’s too late.
