I missed you dear Blog!
Yeah, I really did. I was busy these past days with field works like hiking up the mountains getting myself grass-cuts, slips and mild sun burns, crossing several times that long winding stream just to conduct ocular survey at abaca project sites currently implemented by our local government, and surveying mangrove sites which made me want to hold my breath because of the awful smell given off by yucky mud while trying to get away unscathed from those crisscrossed branches blocking our way! It’s monitoring and evaluation works and it’s only the start. The designated M&E Head is busy nowadays with his master’s degree (is that the term?hehe) leaving a much heavier weight of responsibilities on my shoulder. It’s understandable though. I am his one and only staff. So it leaves me no choice. Nevertheless, it was all fun despite all the hikes, sweats and scorching heat draining me out. Having said that, the physical stress was obviously the major reason I could not think as fast as I wanted to a couple of weeks ago.
Plus, I got distracted with The Vampire Diaries Season 1, to watch it for the second time only during ME time. I love solitude, you know, and I always occupy myself with things that I love doing like reading paperbacks, drawing or just merely watching movies or favorite tv shows. One of the popular TV series these days is the The Vampire Diaries (TVD). I was able to watch most of the episodes of seasons 1 and 2 that were regularly match-aired in the Philippines right after US telecast, the first time on etc channel. At present, it is airing its Season 3 every Tuesday and that makes me always euphoric on that particular day of the week! 
What’s even making my day more complete is having been gifted with its books! I’ve got The Dark Reunion bought for me by my good Aunt and The Return: Shadow Souls from a good friend. I don’t have the complete set yet but I can have the others one of these days 
I was done reading with the former and the latter is what I am now hooked into.
I’ve found out that the story written in the book authored by L. J. Smith is a lot different from its TV version. The creators of TVD (on tv) have plotted a lot of twists and turns of events and personally, I love it. I like their idea of making a story out of the story because I get to feel the excitement from digesting pictures of different sources. Both actually are gripping and so are the characters, most especially Damon Salvatore, coming into life on television in the person of Ian Somerhalder.
<3 Ian Somerhalder <3 Got this from a website I forgot what link it was
I love his smirk, the nonchalance, the cocky grin, the twitching of the mouth and above all, the handsome face! He he… He definitely gives justice to the bad-vampire-yet-with-a-soft-heart-deep-within image. If it were for real, not just some story published or aired on TV, and if I were the female protagonist, the Elena, I would love to go for Damon.
My choice reflects my personality. I get easily smitten with men who can be such a headache but still have the gentlest spot within him. I love men who can love women the way Damon does. He’s the untamed who has been slowly tamed and that is pretty exciting to me… 
Ha! My mind says let’s not dwell on this topic any longer. Hehe! It’s all about feelings again! Crushes! Blame it to Ian Somerhalder! Haha! Mind you, I rarely have had a crush on celebrities and he certainly has that effect on me. But he’s a celebrity so it’s quite normal to sometimes feel that way, right?
But as Damon Salvatore? This has made me wonder why some girls, even young women including me, tend to fall in love with fictional characters which I think is not as normal as having crush on actors like Ian Somerhalder. He he… Maybe a good night sleep will keep me sane and this post, too, is getting nowhere. He he… So sweet dreams readers and bloggers. :*
*As always, this post is still not edited. subject for refinement when I feel like doing it. He he!
