Despite my aching head and upset stomach, here I am in front of my computer, trying to keep this blog alive again. It’s been quite a while the last time you heard from me. And I am so glad I still have the ounce of strength I needed to update you with what’s happening in my life for the past few weeks that I’ve been on hiatus. Anyway, I am just here to let the whole world know that God has blessed me and my husband with another angel. Yep, I am pregnant again! (8 weeks and 6 days to be exact) ![]() When we told Greggy about the good news, he was sooooo excited. He even screamed, “Yehey! May playmate na po ako!” “Pa’no yan, Greg? Ok lang ba sa ‘yo na wag na lang mag-milk kasi may new baby na tayo e. Expensive kasi ang Pediasure.” I jokingly asked my 3.5 year-old son. I thought he would get jealous. But instead, he amazed me by his reply.“Ok lang po, mommy. Mag-Milo na lang po ako…Si baby na lang mag-Pediasure.” I was so touched.

I’d already started reading the book when I found out a month or two ago that Angels and Demons will be shown on big screen. I got pretty excited, so I made a last-ditch effort to finish reading the book as fast as I could and planned to see the movie on its first showing day. But since I was in Baguio (May 15) that time, I was not able to watch it. ![]() For the past few weeks that I was reading the book, I couldn’t help but brag to my husband how interesting and intelligently-written the book was. At first he was skeptical, thinking that it might be just another anti-christ or anti-catholic kind of story like the controversial book-turned-into-movie The Davinci Code which is actually the sequel of Angels and Demons. So I told him, “No. This is different! This book is way better than The Davinci Code.” Then I started telling him about the plot — the Big Bang Theory versus the Moment of Creation stated in the bible (book of Genesis), how the deep rift began between Science and Religion, the antimatter technology (which is the most volatile substance ever known to man), how the ancient brotherhood called The Illuminati (”The Enlightened Ones”) resurfaced after 400 years to take their much awaited revenge against the Catholic Church for the murder of some underground scientists, how Robert Langdon (played by Tom Hanks) helped the Vatican solve the mystery behind the murder of each Cardinal at the four Altar of Science, and so much more! Whew! ![]() I purchased my own copy of the book yesterday for only P299. I’m reading it again! To cut the long story short, we only got to see the movie last Wednesday after work. I couldn’t explain how excited I was. As in my heart was racing! I didn’t know what to expect. Although I learned from a forum that there were important parts in the book that were omitted in the movie to save time and probably to make it less controversial. Some important characters were removed and some were renamed. But I guess I was kinda hoping that they wouldn’t omit the parts that I love in the book. I am not a movie buff, but my husband is. There are things in the movie that disappointed me (well, a little!) because that’s not what happened in the book. I wish they did not omit the story behind the Pope, The Camerlengo (played by Ewan McGregor) and his mother because that would give emphasis as to why the Pope was murdered. That’s my favorite part in the book and they omitted it in the movie! Overall, I think the movie is A-W-E-S-O-M-E! But you’ll appreciate it more if you didn’t read the book because you have no expectations at all. So what are you waiting for? Watch Angels and Demons, or you’ll miss half of your life.
