I love you, Miss Vida Boheme!

As my facebook friend had said, Patrick Swayze is well and truly a ghost now.

There goes another piece of my childhood...


Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side
after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months.

Patrick died at 57, a result of a long bout against pancreatic cancer. He will be missed, of course, but we could all thank Baby Jesus for the DVDs. We can have a Swayze Day and spend it watching Point Break, Ghost, Dirty Dancing and To Wong Foo... with a bowl of popcorn and gallons of Coke. Because, you know, that's how we roll.

Bodhi, Johnny Castle and Sam Wheat may be his most famous characters but to me, he would always be the Glamorously Bitchin' Diva, Vida Boheme.

Check this out! Is this kickin' or what?

"Well pumpkins, it comes down to that age-old decision: style... or... substance?"


I won't forget you, Patrick.

Especially everytime I see my picture from 17 yrs. ago. I got the friggin "Molly" haircut from Ghost. Courtesy of meddling Mama Bear. How can one forget?!

Have a good one, dude. Heaven should prepare for a Dirty Dancing Night.

Holy Shit Moment

Debuted by two of my favorite Koreans (occassionally, whatever) , Song Hye Kyo and Hyun Bin.

The two have been hooking up apparently for several months now. Pardon me, I just crawled out of my rut rock and so it's only now that I knew of this.


To anyone who actually gives a crap about this, the two met on the set of the Korean soap I haven't watched (nor do I plan to) "The World They Live In". The two had been going steady and they keep in touch through texting---just like any human. Except they're cuter and has more money.


I've always liked Song Hye Kyo. I've seen her first as the weepy girl in Endless Love and as the adorable ditz in Full House (a KDrama close to my heart) and I've always thought that she's beautiful.

The only drama that I've seen Hyun Bin on was My Name Is Kim Sam Soon (who hasn't?). Anyway, that's about it because I can't tolerate the rest. His movie, Millionaire's First Love, irritated me for some reason that I can't get through the first ten minutes. I tried, but no can do.


I'm not sure of this hook up but I hope they'd last. They're beautiful to watch, if nothing else.

Oh My Darling, Calvin Klein!

I just would like to spare a moment to thank Calvin Klein for sharing with me (and to the world) these gorgeous specimens of manhood...

Travis Fimmel

Damien Van Zyl

Fred Ljungberg
(...And let's not forget that he's a midfielder for Arsenal)

Scott Barnhill
(I'm not sure if this is for Calvin Klein, but he did model for CK)

Vincent Kartheiser
(Too bad, it's only jeans...)

Butch Walker



Yes, to some people I might come across as a feminist--and they may be right.
But I'm NOT dead.

And just because...


Travis
... Another Travis ...


God Bless You, My Darling Calvin Klein!
