Twilight Saga : Eclipse

Oh my God! Eclipse movie is already in post production... After seeing "New Moon" , now i can't wait for the next movie.... Anyone who hasn't seen the movie yet (maybe most have seen it already :) ) should see it .. I already have the original DVD copy of Twilight (first movie)... I am not sure when the New moon DVD will be released.. anyone knows?

Anyway got this article from http://www.eclipsemovie.org/eclipse-will-also-be-available-in-imax-theaters-on-june-30th-2010/ :



"With the huge money The Twilight Saga has been making at theaters, it’s no surprise everyone wants it in IMAX. This way, theater owners can charge more for tickets and everyone involved can make more money. It’s just unfortunate they didn’t film any of the movie using IMAX cameras when it was in production. Of course, with The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn still to be shot, perhaps the final chapter will be a real IMAX release and Twilight fans will be able to see Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner fill the whole screen.
“Twilight moviegoers will have a whole new way to experience this next installment of the series, with the enhanced image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience putting them IN the movie,” said Richie Fay, Summit Entertainment’s President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution. “The IMAX release puts us on the event film calendar for 2010, and we’re very excited to work with IMAX to bring a new kind of film to the IMAX theatre network.”

Being Crafty ... what do you think?

Hi every one..... been MIA for a while.. regular work is keeping me from updating this blog.. but i do read all post of all the pretty bloggers that i do i follow so i'm quite up to date of what's new in the blog world.

Anyway, I accompanied our Finance controller two weeks ago to Divisoria for some pasalubong shopping. By the way she's an American based in our office in San Diego, CA. She was looking for some accessories and jewerly that she could bring to her staffs in the US. We found this beads store in 168 mall that sells ready made Swarovski jewerly and swarovski crystals that you could make on your own.... My eyes feasted on a lot of crystals... i bought a lot and thought of creating my own or might as well sell those if someone finds it nice. I will be posting some of my creations so if anyone wants them.... here they are.....

First one is made of 8mm bronze Swarovski pearls , 14mm swarovski moon, gold plated toggle clasp

Second is inspired from a picture i saw from the web while i was browsing thru spring images... it represent spring colors..

made of 10mm swarovski flowers, 14mm swarovski heart, 6mm swarovski bicones, 6mm swarovski round rondelle, 6mm swarovski pearls... rodium plated toggle clasp, key charms ... measures 7 1/2" from end to end....

close-up of the heart...

when worn....

Need your opinion guys.. would i pursue this? if anyone f you wanted this, just shoot me an e-mail.... cielo_umandal@hotmail.com

thanks...ciao...

I won! I won!

Hi everyone! it's already mid week and hope evryone is doing good..... i've been blessed this month.. a lot of gifts came my way .... it's my birthday month... one of the unexpected gift that i received was winning the Cosmopolita Mag promo last June. I've been buying beauty and fashion magazines since last year and this is my second time entering a contest/giveaway and i was lucky enough to win one of the prizes...



I entered their Pucker power giveaway....i've been lemming for Guerain rouge lipstick when i first saw it in Jamilla's blog. i really wanted to get one but the price is preventing me to get one from Rustan's... It's price at P2350 or around $49... It's too much for a lipstick... maybe i have been good and God let me have it without spending too much (i spent only P125 for the magazine price :) ).. Two weeks ago i got an e-mail from summit media informing me that i won the giveaway.. i was really really happy.. getting my very first guerlain lippy... so last thursday, i went to Summit Media's office to pick up my prize... Good thing the shade was so nice.... i got Guerlain Rouge de G in 09 Galante.. i will post swatch of the lippy later...

sorry for the mark... booh me.. i was excite to check the color and didn't notice that it hit the case.

The case was really really pretty.. it was heavy though for a lipstick... its like carrying your whole make-up kit ... But for now this is my fave l/p aside from the clinique long last lipstick in 05 Heart....

ciao

HAUL!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone!!!!!!!!!i did a little haulin' last Saturday and last night... I am in need of a good facial cleanser, that could prevent zits and of course provide a clean fresh feel after. i have read in some blogs about the tee trea oil from The Body Shop that will help eliminate acne. So after watching Transformer 2 (which i should say really good.... at far with the first one) i ask my hubby if i could drop by TBS... i was only going to buy the facial wash and Toner but end up buying these.....

Tea tree skin clearing facial wash , Tea tree Skin Clearing toner, Camomile Gentle eye make-up remover , Tea tree oil...

Freebie ... green make-up pouch

Then last night after attending Cancer Seminar in Vivere Hotel in Alabang btw, it was very informative given by Fuda Cancer Hospital in China... http://www.fudahospital.com/.. there is indeed hope for Cancer patients.. even for stage 4 cancer...... so after attending the seminar, i dropped by Robinson's in Festival mall and hauled again.... i needed an eye cream but then upon seeing this Eye-make-up remover from Nikki of Askmewhats , i decided to give it a try... even if i purchased the one from TBS.... ???????

This is my eyes before using the Olay Regenerist eye lifting serum.... please be warned.....

dark under eyes, fine lines, some dark spots

I will check if this would work wonders on my eyes.... I will leave you with a pic of mine a 2 months ago.. just don't focus on the zits in my forehead....

See you again next time!

Ciao!

Steph was so fast.. e-mailed her before i left worked and the next morning, got a response from her... gave her specs on what i like , colors and after few minutes she said it was done...how fast is that! the initial design she puts in a round crystal instead of the heart.. then i ask her if she could change it to heart crystal and she gladly obliged..... great service... hats off to you steph!
