Book/Movie review: The Hunger Games Trilogy

This is a late review of a recent movie I've watched, like about a month ago "The Hunger Games" and the succeeding books of the trilogy.

I love the story and the twists and turns of the plot. I like how they had Jennifer Lawrence took the role as Katniss Everdeen (the lead role in the story). I think she did well in portraying the character. What I didn't liked about the casting was Josh Hutcherson, the fact that he played as Peeta Mellark, I had a different impression between the Peeta in the book and the Peeta in the movie. In the book, I love how Katniss describes Peeta. I don't remember if it was stated that Peeta wasn't as good looking as Gale was but I understood that Gale was handsome but in the book Peeta was very good in speaking and convincing his listeners to sympathize him in many ways. But in the movie, the final interview portion, his lines were not as much convincing than they were in the book. Everything was great aside from that. Liam Hemsworth is a really good-looking guy (smiles =D) and I'm looking forward for more exposure in the next book

"Catching Fire". The second book is also action packed, very unpredictable and I got myself more engaged the story than the previous one. I've read it for like 4-5 days, I don't want to read it all in one day because I love the thrill the story gives and personally I want to look forward to another great twist day by day. Catching fire's got me hooked, specially the end part where I was left really hanging about the story, of how District 13 was still there all the time they thought it was a ghost town. Then, I cant wait to read the last book

"Mockingjay". I'm not going to spoil the story behind Mockingjay, all I can say is it is a MUST-READ! XD

Dear John

Something came to me this evening that I went on watching the movie "Dear John" again. I used to read that book over and over again until such time that it came out in film sometime in 2010. I was in Manila during that time it was showed in movie houses. I could relate, a little, because I was away from my long time boyfriend. We were about 3 years already, and during that time I was away because I choose to work in another city, though it's just a 1 hr and 20 min. ride in an airplane, we're still far from each other. In the movie, I felt how it was away from someone you love so much and someone you use to always be with in any time of the day. Though we were apart, communication was always present. I worked as a call center agent, so basically, I'm alive in the evening and stay dead asleep during daytime. I was not on the other side of the world but it felt like it. Familiar of the song "JET LAG" by Simple Plan and Natasha Bedingfield? It was exactly l...

"I like the way you annoyed me Because I know that you're thinking of me Thank you so much for the sweet words With you I feel like that i'm the luckiest Woman in the World." True love is not the number of kisses, or how often you get them, true love is the feeling that still lingers long after the kiss is over.

Our Little Pea

It was a funny thing the first time we thought we have you there already. I was feeling dizzy most of the time and I feel like I have dyspepsia every after meal. I thought could it be possibly because I have a little pea growing in my tummy already? We went to the doctor to have it checked, the doctor said I'm just getting hyper acidity and gave me prescriptions. But we were both hesitant to have me take those medicines in case you were already there. So what we did is to take a urine test to make sure, POSITIVE This is the first pregnancy test we took to really see if you were real. At first we couldn't believe it, we just thought it was a glitch on the device and that we'd have to try another test to make sure. still POSITIVE! So we took a second pregnancy test a week after the first one but still the results were the same. It's telling us that you are already there. It took some time for the feeling to sink in about 2 weeks probably to reali...
