Anyways, enough of the ranting. I've recently spent a quiet, laid-back but otherwise great weekend with my honey. We didn't go anywhere nor did anything special that will qualify as "a great weekend" to other people's standards (we just spent it watching movies, cooking, him teaching me how to cook, listening to some music, watching CSI, doing the laundry, etc.), but any QT spent with my honey will always be "great" to me.
Friday afternoon saw the start of our movie marathon weekend. After going to the cemetery to visit my uncle and grandparent's graves in celebration of All Saint's Day, we went to Trinoma afterwards to watch Nights in Rodanthe starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane. It was a good movie. The beach house was divine. And it really showed that "it's never too late for a second chance". The only thing I hated about the movie was the ending wherein Richard Gere's character died in an accident. Well, I was looking for a happy ending.
After Nights in Rodanthe, we decided to watch another movie adaptation of a Nicholas Sparks novel, Message in a Bottle. Another good movie but sadly, Kevin Costner's character also died in the end. It didn't pass my notice that all three movie adaptations of Nicholas Sparks' books that I have so far watched (Nights in Rodanthe, Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember), the lead characters died at the end of the movie. I don't really have a problem with it, it's just that I'm really a sucker for happy endings.
Anyways, the rest of the movies we watched are Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer, and Sakal Sakali Saklolo. I'm a Harry Potter fan and I can say I had him converted. He'd already watched all five movies and he's borrowing my books for him to read. Ha!
I can't wait for the next weekend. We'll try to do something new, for a change. We'll see.
