Very Superficial List of My Top 10 Guys of 2007!!!

To save you from all the murderous things I've been posting, here's a bit of eye candy!

As promised, here's my top ten list of guys that I found hot, cute, or just tickled my fancy for this year.

10. Christopher Gorham

He's Henry from Ugly Betty, but I actually started liking him back in 1999 when he played Harrison John, a nobody in high school, in the show Popular. Few people know about this show (because they're probably busy watching Dawson's Creek!) which is annoying because it's quite good. I sort of went twilight zone and downloaded the first season of Popular because I never got to finish watching it since it suddenly got canceled over here.

Why he's on the list: He's just adorable as a dork. And I like guys with glasses. (not all, but most)
9. David Boreanaz
He's just hot. He was Angel in Buffy, and he was hot then. He's still hot now in Bones as Seeley Booth with his cute patterned socks and outrageously huge belt buckles. And I absolutely love his and Tempy's (his partner) chemistry.

Why he's on the list: It actually is not just him. I just love his dynamics with his co-star. It makes him cuter when he goes all "dumb jock" on the show.

8. Chris Pine
Ah, Chris. I went to see his latest movie Blind Dating back in July. It was okay, except for that one hideous line that's supposed to be the climax of the movie. (I posted it here somewhere, check in the July 2007 archive)

Why he's on the list: Princess Diaries 2. He was just such a prince charming there. I know it deviated so much from the book but that's why I watch the movie over and over. It's a cheesy chick flick but whatever. It's one of my happy movies!

7. Justin Hartley a.k.a Green Arrow/Oliver Queen
Seriously, the first time I saw Oliver Queen I was like......*faint*.

Why he's on the list: He's just really sexy. Seriously. Look at him! Oh and he gave me another reason to keep on watching Smallville (even though his character's gone now :( )






6. Jake Cuenca
First local artista here! And the only one. Lol. He's one of my superficial crushes. He's just hot. Although his acting skills still have a lot of room for improvement, still. His a pretty face.

Why he's on the list: I'm being pro-Pinoy! And I promised you eye candy so there. :)






5. Jensen Ackles a.k.a. Dean Winchester
He's one of the pretty boys. He was hilarious back then and now that he's dying (his character in Supernatural, I mean), he's even better! He's just an all-out joyride!

Why he's on the list: He has great eyelashes. I want ones like his.
4. Chris Tiu
Ah. Chris.

As related to me by a friend:

Two girls were walking and complaining about their shitty week. A professor was walking behind them and he could hear them complaining.

Girl 1: I hate this week! It's such a hell week. And my prof sucks!
Girl 2: Yeah mine too! She gave us too much homework it's ridiculous!

Then, the two girls suddenly stopped to look at something on the bulletin board.

Girl 1: So, are you feeling better yet?
Girl 2: *sigh* Yeah I think I am.
The two girls walked away. The professor, curious as to what made them stop yakking, looked at the bulletin board and saw... ...that they were looking at a picture of Chris Tiu.

Why he's on the list: He's just...perfect. (as far as I know) He kind of made me have faith in the male population again.

3. Eric Dane a.k.a. McSteamy
I actually saw him in Charmed where he played Phoebe's boss, Jason Dean. I found him really attractive back then and then forgotten all about him and now he's back in my radar.
Now I know why Addison cheated on Derek. Lol! Seriously, just look at him. If every 35-year-old man looked like him, then everyone would be happy. At least all the women will be.

Why he's on the list: The word "McSteamy" says it all!

2. Jared Padalecki a.k.a. Sam Winchester
He may be not as much fun as Dean, but he is as good-looking. I don't know exactly why I like him better than Dean. I mean, Sam is uptight and annoying at times and is a kind of know-it-all... But he's still oh so hot. Really. And he's really tall.

Why he's on the list: Because I like geeky guys.



and the winner is...


1. Randy Orton
I just... He's just... Oh man. He's annoyingly arrogant, but that just makes him even sexier. And he's really tall and muscular and hot. I should stop now.

Why he's on the list: Because everytime I see him I go, "Damn. It should be a crime to look that good."






It's midnight! Happy 2008 everyone!!!

I've Got an Hour and a Half...

And I'm still 8 posts away from my goal! Argh!!!

Another un-holiday-ish post for you guys. Because of all the new horror stuff that I found, I remembered some of my old bookmarked ones and went back to check them out.

Sad to say that one of them (Bitten ~ Behind the Horror Show) is somehow gone already. It was a really cool horror movie review blog, and I think they did book reviews too. I found the website that the blog was dedicated to here, but its last update was way back in 2006! I did look around and I think it's still worth a visit. There are really cool Asian horror films I've never seen before there.

Now for my "serial killer" phase --> Dead Silence. I was researching about Jack the Ripper a year ago for history class and I stumbled upon this blog about serial killers! I know it's kind of creepy that I enjoy reading this, but really, it's quite interesting. I thought serial killers were really rare, but because of this blog I discovered that they're actually abundant even today.

There's even an 8-year-old serial killer! Can you believe that?! What kind of twisted world do we live in? And the profiles are kind of helpful too. I mean, you can't be too careful, right? It says there that "organized" serial killers can live two separate lives, and no one is the wiser. One man is described by his wife as "the perfect husband" or something. They had a great marriage, and then lo and behold, he turns out to be a serial killer. Man. And also, there are some people who actually collect serial killer memorabilia like their toe clippings and sketches from inside their cells and stuff. It's really disgusting when you think about it, but to each his own, yeah?

New Year Traditions

I know I missed 3 hours of posting. Sorry. I fell asleep. :p

However, sleep has given me some post ideas because I'm kinda running out of gory stuff.

Since we're celebrating the coming of 2008, I'll let you in on how uneventful this holiday is for me.

Stages of My New Year's Eve:

Stage 1: Wake up (this may be any time from early morning or as late as 6pm) and wait for evening to come (if I wake up at 6pm then there's no need to wait already).

Stage 2: Bathe and prepare to go to relatives' home to have dinner

Stage 3: Have dinner at relatives' house. Either bring a book, an mp3 player, or mobile phone with games because everybody will be talking to each other except me (I have to kill about 3 hours).

Stage 4: Go home (perk: more cash!) and wait for the explosions to reach its peak and then subside (I hate non-pretty fireworks.) There usually are movie marathons on Star Movies. They usually show long movies like LOTR or Star Wars or Harry Potter. This time, they're showing the X-Men trilogy. I like I like!

Stage 5: It's midnight. Have media noche with family and stay up until I can't keep my eyes open anymore. Watch firework displays on TV and wait for the other countries to finish their countdown.

That's basically it! So...how do you spend your new year eve?

Games!!!

So while I was on my horror flick sites browsing spree, I found British Horror Films. I checked it out because all the horror films that reach the Philippine shores are either from the US or from other Asian countries. (IMO, Asian horror films are way scarier. Whenever they remake one in Hollywood it just isn't the same...)

I looked around to get some idea what Brit horror film is worth watching, and then I saw this: Baron Frankenstein's Keepy-uppy Game.

The concept is simple: don't let the "ball" hit the ground. But the ball being the severed head of Frankenstein's monster makes it way more fun! Lol. It's just that I have no idea how the game ends. Is there a proper ending? Or do I just close the window or something? My top score is only 27 (hey, the head is spewing blood so it's a bit slippery!). Maybe I should get to a certain score for me to win?

Here's a screenshot:


Anyway, check it out!

Would You Stay In This House?

I would, if there are like, 10 of us in one room and we'd never sleep.


Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast is a house that's a historical landmark in Fall River, Massachusetts, because of a terrible terrible heinous crime that happened there. Lizzie Borden, a member of one of the families that lived in that house, was said to have murdered a businessman and his wife. The verdict was "not guilty", but still a lot of people think she did it.

The house was unoccupied for a long time, and then now it's opened as a bed & breakfast for people who want to, I don't know, encounter the ghost of a murderer or something. It's a real life haunted house. One can choose to just look around and avail of cool stuff from the gift shop, or one can stay overnight and wait for the chills of the night. In the morning, they serve the same breakfast that the Bordens had when the murder happened.

I just find it really weird and twisted that this "bloodied" house can even become commercial. I mean, there's a threat of actually encountering angry spirits or something in the middle of the night! But I guess that's its allure, right? It's pretty unique; I give it props for that. :) It would make a great Halloween getaway, for that extra freaky ghoulish feel.

Happy New Year's Eve!

So... In twelve hours, it'll be a whole new year all over again.

A lot has happened even though it seems to me that my life is as boring as ever. I do try to make it exciting, you know. :)

So to celebrate another year of probable nothingness, I'm going to try to post every hour until midnight, which is quite problematic for me because I'm going out tonight and I can't post using my mobile phone... Whatever. I'll try to sort things out later. Or maybe I'll just post a sum of twelve posts. No significance on the number there, I just happen to wake up at this time.

So, to start off my mini "blogathon", I've stumbled upon some really awesome blogs these past few days.


My brother and I have been having nightly DVD marathons since Christmas, and we ended up watching horror flicks every time. I really don't know how I discovered these sites, but they're pretty great horror sites.

The Horrors of It All is a site dedicated to pre-code (referring to the Comic Code) horror comic books. This blog contains awesome scans of those comic books for all of us to enjoy - for FREE!!! And it contains links to other really cool sites.

Horror Movie a Day is just that. The author reviews one horror film per day! I like discovering old horror movies. I especially like zombie movies with the title "_ of the Dead". Some of the ones I've seen are brain-numbingly stupid but the whole zombie movie genre found their redemption for me in Shaun of the Dead! Lol. Anyway, it's an interesting read.

Cereal Killers. This is the first blog of its kind that I've seen. Check it out. It literally deals with cereals!!! I'd love to buy some, if there's any available. Here's my favorite -->

Here ends my first post. Later!

Voldemort, Voldemort, oooh Voldy-voldy--voldy-voldemort!

A couple of week s ago, I downloaded about 13GB worth of Christmas videos. From classic holiday flicks like A Christmas Carol to modern Hollywood products like Santa Clause (1 to 3) to silly cartoon specials like Johnny Bravo Christmas, I have them all, safely tucked inside a folder here in my fast-diminishing Drive C. I really need a new hard disk.

So, as my quest for Christmas videos went on, I stumbled upon these awesome videos which I've almost forgotten about (and I feel really guilty about that. I mean, just because the books are all out doesn't mean that I could forget...what kind of fan am I?! --crazy--).

POTTER PUPPET PALS!!!

I absolutely loved the first two clips they made: Bothering Snape and Trouble at Hogwarts. But guess what, they have new ones! They even did a live performance some time early this month. Of course it's somewhere in the US of A but thank goodness for technology, right?

You can just check out my Multiply site for the rest of the videos, but I'm gonna post my favorite of all.

Potter Puppet Pals in
THE MYSTERIOUS TICKING NOISE




I swear, you're never gonna get this out of your head once you've seen it. it's awesome! I'm still figuring out a way on how to make this my ring tone.

Snape...Snape...Severus Snape...
Snape...Snape...Severus Snape...
Dumbledore!
Ron-Ron-Ron Weasely!
Snape...Snape...Severus Snape...
Dumbledore!
Ron-Ron-Ron Weasley!
Hermione. Hermione!
Harry Potter! Harry Potter! Harry Potter! Harry Potter!

*I can't type everything HAHAHA I just watched it again, makes me crack up every time!

So now, back to reality. I have two long articles to edit and I've only finished like 1/5 of the first one. I also have to make invitations shaped like Chuck Taylors and read about 200 pages worth of readings, all in one day.

I'm going back to my Grey's Anatomy marathon now.
