RBD Final LA Concert 12-05-08

2008-12-08T02:04:29Z

The concert was such an adrenaline rush (“you can google it” haha), so I’m gonna do my best to try and give a good recap. I don’t remember the order of the songs, so forgive me…

LA traffic was really bad, so I wasn’t sure if we were going to make it in time, but we got there on time. Yay! The show started late, which doesn’t surprise me. LOL. They started their last LA concert late too. LOL. So my friend and I had pretty good seats, we were right in the middle so we had a good view of the stage.

I wasn’t sure if they were gonna start the show with Fui La Nina or Carino Mio, but I’m glad it was Carino Mio because the choreography was awesome! Ucker gyrated like no other (not just during Carino Mio, but throughout the whole concert. LOL)

There was a lot of hugging throughout the concert between Dul and Poncho, Mai and Poncho, Christian and everyone LOL, Ucker and Dul, and the girls. Poncho kept messing with Any’s hair…what’s new? LOL.

In the beginning of YNPO, the boys were messing around like usual and Poncho and Ucker were pushing Christian back and forth. LOL. They were so cute!

It was so cute how every time a fan gave Christian a shirt he’d put it on…he put on a purple one and later on he put on a pink t-shirt. Any gave her water bottle to a fan and Ucker threw his Rebelde jacket into the pit *thud*

What Any said after she sang Salvame was so sad :( From what I understood she told us that this was her last time singing Salvame for us (meaning LA), to never stop dreaming, and that she loved us with all her heart. Christian’s speech after he sang Tu Amor was awesome. He said to say no to Prop 8, that sexual preferences shouldn’t matter, and thanked us for all our support.

During the Nuestro Amor performance when Mai and Poncho are singing, Any and Christian are dancing in the background and they’re so cute. You’ll see them in my video.

In my friend Vero's recap of the concert, she mentioned that Poncho put a hat that a fan threw onto the stage on Any's head. I happened to get a photo of that...it's a pic of them in their Rebelde uniforms.

It was my first time hearing Light Up the World Tonight all the way through (I know ML…I’m a bad baby and should have listened to it sooner =] ) I thought it was a pretty good song. Reminded me of something from the 80’s. LOL Ucker had sooo much energy during the song…actually he was like an energizer bunny throughout the concert.

Any changed her clothes 5 times (including the Rebelde uniform)…she had the baby pink 2 piece, the green and white Salvame dress, the baby blue dress, the purple skirt and white top, and the Rebelde uniform. Dul changed 3 times…she had the pink corset and black shorts, the metallic blue dress, and the Rebelde uniform. Mai changed 3 times…she had the black and red dress, the black dress (I wasn’t a big fan of the neck part of the dress), and the Rebelde uniform. Ucker and Poncho changed 3 times. I can’t remember how many times Christian changed. LOL. he did a lot of changing on stage with the fan’s shirts. LOL.

It was an amazing concert!!! I was so happy to see them back to their normal-energized-happy selves.

Here are some of the pics I took...they aren't the best quality, but better than nothing. LOL. I'll upload the videos later when I have more time.

^^ awww I'm gonna miss these kinds of pics <3

^^ Poncho put that hat on Any's head ^_^

^^ aww AyA! I'm glad I got one last mini traumada moment. LOL.

*tear* :(

^^ They were calling out the Grinch... -_-

A few of the pics were too big so they got cut off and I'm too lazy to resize the pics, so if you want to see the full pic just let me know and I'll send you the link.

My thoughts on Breaking Dawn

2008-08-21T06:31:21Z

So I finished Breaking Dawn a while ago, but I haven't had a chance to post my thoughts about it. My thoughts are so chaotic, so there'll be alot of rambling. It was such an emotional rollercoaster for me. I loved book one because I'm a romantic and I loved the wedding and honeymoon, but I nearly had a brain aneurysm when I found out that Bella was pregnant. I know that alot of people had issues with accepting the fact that Bella was pregnant because they assumed that Edward didn't have little Edwards, but I tried not to think about the technical stuff and just deal with it.

When I saw that book two was going to be narrated by Jacob, I was a little disappointed because I was so comfortable with Bella narrating the books. Surprisingly, I loved the beginning of book two because I could relate to Jacob and how he was feeling. I felt Jacob's hatred for Rosalie because all she cared about was the demon spawn (I called it that while it was still in Bella--killing her slowly--but I grew to love the baby after it was out of Bella. lol) and his frustration with Bella because she was willing to have the life drained out of her by this unknown creature in her stomach. I had a real love-hate relationship with Bella throughout book two. It was hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Bella had worked so hard to be with Edward, yet she knew that she'd mostly likely be killed by the demon spawn in her. Also, in Eclipse Bella had said she would never hurt Edward and Jacob again, yet its obvious that the existence of the demon spawn was hurting Edward and Jacob. I was totally ok with Jacob until the end of book two....when he freaking imprinted on Renesmee. That was so sick and twisted. EWWWWW. I know that Jacob said imprinting doesn't mean he loves her like a bf loves a gf, but he loves her like a protective big bro or something, but that does not lessen the grossness factor. I LOVED Bella's reaction when she found out that Jacob imprinted on Renesmee! It was so funny when she said "I've held her all of one time, and already you think you have some moronic wolfy claim to her? She's mine." haha And I can't believe that Jacob brought up that whole "we're suppose to be a part of each other's lives"!! Did he honestly think that Bella would want him in her life in this way!?!? gahhh. And I do not like the nickname Nessie at all. I agree with Bella...it reminds me of the Loch Ness Monster, too! Plus, I hated all the hovering the Jacob was doing...it's like, just let Bella hold her freaking baby! She didn't try to kill Renesmee when she first smelled her blood, so she's probably not gonna be doing it!

By the end of the first 2 books, I was really missing Edward and Bella's relationship =[ It was their relationship in Twilight that made me love the story so much, so I really missed their interaction. It was nice that Jacob mentioned Edward's demeanor and actions around Bella when she was in her delicate state, but it wasn't the same. I was glad that book three had the cute Edward and Bella moments that I was missing so much. I loved when Bella arm-wrestled Emmett! Such a nice, funny, light-hearted moment. It was also really funny when Edward told Bella that Emmett and Rosalie went at it for like a decade and broke a couple houses. lol I was sooo freaking pissed when Jacob talked to Charlie! It wasn't his secret to tell! He is so juvenile and naive...he didn't think about the consequences of his actions at all! I'm glad that Bella and Renesmee get to stay close to Charlie, but Jacob should have left that decision up to Bella. I think Bella's superpower is really cool. It seems appropriate for her because she's always been more of a mental person than physical person, ya know? Like it's hard to imagine her in a physical fight. I started to get teary-eyed when all the vampires are in the clearing and Bella hands Renesmee over to Jacob and is saying goodbye to her....so sad. =[ I'm sure that alot of people wanted an epic battle at the end of the book and for people to die, but I'm like Stephenie, in the sense that I like a happy ending. If any of the Cullens died...even Rosalie...I would have gone into cardiac arrest. I just couldn't handle that. Sure there are things I would have changed, but in general I felt closure.

Geez, I have so much to say but it's all just bouncing around in my head and i'm distracted by the May/Walsh gold medal olympic volleyball game. lol

Cam Gigandet comes onto the stage and the moderator introduces Kristen Stewart ("Bella"), Robert Pattinson ("Edward"), Stephenie Meyer, and Catherine Hardwicke

The reaction to Rob coming out was deafening!!!!! I thought my ears were gonna start bleeding, but I have to admit that I joined in with the fan girl squealing. lol I loved how Kristen and Cam had their arms in the air when Rob came out.

The moderator asks Taylor to describe his character and his relationship with Bella. The moderator asks Edi, Cam, and Rachelle to talk about their unique abilities in the film.

Taylor's just adorable ^_^ Cam is just so freaking sexy...."and we look good doing it" *sigh*

</div>

2008 Comic Con Twilight Panel - Part 4
Uploaded by kim317

The moderator asks Kristen about her first experience with the book and why she thinks the book series is so popular. He asks Rob how does it feel to have so many fans who can't wait to see him on the big screen in the role of Edward.

So I loved Kristen's honesty about not hearing about the book til Catherine came to her and I definitely did NOT appreciate whoever booed Kristen for not having heard of the books! Who cares if she hadn't read the books before? She's read it now and I'm sure she did a great job as Bella. I love how Kristen talks ... "It depicts the most ideological, epic, perfect, not perfect, but perfect in it's unperfectness..." some people might not think she's eloquent, but I understand exactly what she's saying. lol and I think the popping sound she makes after she says her answer is adorable! And Kristen's reaction to the fan reaction to Rob's name was too cute. Rob's goofy smile makes me want to swoon. He was so cute when he said "I can't even hear anything..."

</div></div>

Fan questions:
Rob - how does it feel to play the sexiest vampire ever?

Fan questions:
Everyone - where there any spontaneous moments on set?
Everyone - what was the inspiration for each actor to accept the role of each character?
</div></div>
I loved the spontaneous moment that Catherine said! "Oh, I remember one. When we were doing the kissing scene where Rob got a little passionate and fell onto the floor" Rob's making this like omfg face at Kristen ;) It was great to see that Taylor and the rest of the cast appreciate the fans so much ^_^

2008 Comic Con Twilight Panel - Part 7

Cam's answer and part of Kristen's answer to the fan question "what was the inspiration for each actor to accept the role of each character?"

Loved how Cam was all flustered! I loved Cam and Kristen's responses! Cam's was so sweet and i loved how he reacted to the fan's reaction when he got all sappy *sigh* I loved Kristen's response because it shows everyone that she's just like every other sappy, sensitive teenage girl! lol

2008 Comic Con Convention - Twilight Experience

2008-07-28T06:26:24Z

So Thursday, July 24 was the first day of the 2008 San Diego Comic Con Convention!!! It was a long and tiring day, but definitely worthy it! J So I’m going to give a very detailed summary of the day because 10 years from now I want to be able to remember all the details from that day. Haha. Sorry if I ramble and jump from topic to topic…twilight fever and the lack of sleep have fried my brains!

So I went to sleep at like 12 am on Thursday morning and I was up at 3:00 am to get ready to leave for San Diego! I don’t know what was going through my mind when I thought I’d be able to get through a hectic day at Comic Con on 3 hours of sleep. lol. I went with my sister, her boyfriend, and his little brother. We got to the Convention Center at 6 am and got into a long ass line outside of Hall A to get our badges. We passed the entrance to Hall H and there was already a line of people who had camped out there the night before…we saw the Twilight Moms…they were the first ones in line! Wherever we looked, we saw Twilight shirts…a lot of Team Edward shirts…a few Team Jacob shirts. It made me all giddy!!

At around 8 am, they let us into the Convention Center to get our badges and once that was done, we all went to Hall H to get in line for the 20^th Century Fox: “The Day The Earth Stood Still” and “Max Payne” panel because that was the panel before the Summit Pictures panel….the line was insanely long…there were probably 2,500 people in line by the time we got to the end of it…thank goodness Hall H can hold 6,500 people!!!! haha. We had to get in line for the 20^th Century Fox panel because the Convention Center doesn’t clear out rooms in-between events and we figured that Twilighters would be camping out in Hall H as soon as it opened.

The heat started to get to my sister, so her boyfriend suggested that we go into the air conditioned Sails Pavilion, where they’d be holding the raffle for the “Twilight” autograph signing. Because there were so many people there for “Twilight,” Comic Con had to limit the size to 75 people and those 75 people would be determined by whoever pulled out a raffle ticket that had a stamp on the back. The location of the raffle wouldn’t be revealed until 5 minutes before the drawing would happen, so there was just a huge blob of maybe 200-300 (?) people clustering in the Pavilion waiting for the drawing. There were also drawing for other Summit movies like “Push” and “Knowing,” but no one was there for those movies…we were all waiting for “Twilight.” lol.

Then a huge guy stood on a chair and screamed “TWILIGHT!” and pointed towards the direction we had to go and everyone trampled over each other…I was squished in between 2 very large men. lol. The drawing started and occasionally I heard a fan girl scream, so I was nervous that they’d run out of tickets. Sadly, my sister didn’t get a winning ticket, but I went to pick my ticket and there was a stamp on the back of it!!!!!!!! I seriously thought I was hallucinating!! It was sooo surreal! So I started to fan girl scream and my sister and I were jumping up and down! lol. But then we had to high tail it to Hall H because my sister’s bf said that the line was moving and they were almost into Hall H. We had to run from one end of the Convention Center to the other (it’s equal to 8 city blocks or half a mile!!!) and it was so crowded! The security guards kinda looked at us like we were crazy. lol.

We got into Hall H and grabbed some seats. Then all of a sudden the black curtain covering the back wall starts collapsing because the metal poles holding it up were bending!! Thankfully, no one was hurt, but that delayed the start of the 20^th Century Fox Panel because the people in charge wanted to double check the other curtains. The wait was driving me crazy because I was so anxious to get started so that we could finally get to the Twilight panel. We started at 12 pm.

11:30-1:00 20th Century Fox: The Day The Earth Stood Still and Max Payne—

Stars Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly, plus director Scott Derrickson and producer Erwin Stoff, present an exclusive look at The Day The Earth Stood Still, Fox's contemporary reinvention of its 1951 classic. Keanu is Klaatu, an alien whose arrival on our planet triggers a global upheaval. As governments and scientists race to unravel the mystery behind the visitor's appearance, a woman (Jennifer) and her young stepson get caught up in his mission—and come to understand the ramifications of his being a self-described "friend to the Earth." Klaatu Barada Nikto.

The legendary interactive video game Max Payne comes to the big screen, telling the story of a maverick cop determined to track down those responsible for the brutal murder of his family and partner. Hell-bent on revenge, his obsessive investigation takes him on a nightmare journey into a dark underworld. As the mystery deepens, Max is forced to battle enemies beyond the natural world and face an unthinkable betrayal. "Max Payne" himself—Mark Wahlberg—will be on hand with Mila Kunis, Ludacris, and director John Moore to discuss turning the game's noirish, hard-hitting, and complex world and characters into a movie event.

Hall H

The panel for “The Day The Earth Stood Still” was kinda boring, but then came “Max Payne”!!!!!!!! Mark Wahlberg was sooo cute! He was super sweet and funny! He loved when the fan girls would scream…he said he felt like he was in Japan because after everything he does the crowd would scream! Then he said now he knows why New Kids On the Block wanted to reunite. lol. Mila Kunis was adorable and so sassy. It was also really cool to see Ludacris! I have a really cute video of Mila and Mark…I’ll post it as soon as I can upload it.

After the cast of “Max Payne” left the stage, the moderator got a note from some Australian airline saying that….Hugh Jackman had arrived!!! He came onto the stage and talked to us for a little while and then he showed us a teaser for “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.”

After a 15 minute break, the Summit Pictures panel started!!!

1:15-2:45 Summit Pictures— Summit Entertainment presents a sneak peek of exclusive footage of some of its upcoming major film releases:

Push—In this futuristic sci-fi thriller set in Hong Kong, a group of young American ex-pats with extraordinary psychic abilities must band together and use their different talents on a final mission to escape a clandestine government agency forever. Chris Evans, Dakota Fanning, Djimon Hounsou, Camilla Belle and director Paul McGuigan present a first look at exclusive footage and answer questions about the film.

Knowing—An action thriller of global proportions. Director Alex Proyas appears in person to introduce never-before-seen footage for his new major motion picture starring Nicolas Cage.

Twilight—Based on the #1 New York Times best-selling book series, Twilight is an action-packed, modern-day love story between a vampire and a mortal. Director Catherine Hardwicke, author Stephenie Meyer, and the cast—including Robert Pattinson (Edward), Kristen Stewart (Bella), Cam Gigandet (James), Rachelle LaFevre (Victoria), Edi Gathegi (Laurant), and Taylor Lautner (Jacob)—answer your questions about bringing the world of these beloved characters to life on the big screen and show exclusive footage from the film.

Hall H

The moderator mentioned “Push” and “Knowing,” then he was like “You guys might not have heard about this little movie, but it’s called….Twilight” and the crowd erupted into fan girl screaming!!! lol. The cast of “Push” came out and Chris Evans is such a cutie!! He’s sooo funny…he loved it every time the fan girls would scream for him ^_^ Dakota Fanning was suppose to be at the panel, but she was stuck in traffic on the 5 freeway (which is a killer freeway). Later, the director for “Knowing” came out and he talked to the moderator and there was some Q&A with the audience and then what we were all anticipating……

TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The guys behind me even said “omg, Twilight is next…I better plug my ears because there is gonna be a lot of teenage girls screaming” lol. The panel moderator welcomed onto the stage: Taylor, Edi, Rachelle, Cam, Kristen, Robert, Stephenie, and last but not least, Catherine.

*I'll be posting my Comic Con videos and comments about them later because it'll take me a while to upload them*

So after the Twilight panel, the moderator said that Dakota had finally arrived and she wanted to say hi to everyone. She walked onto the stage and thanked everyone for being there and she said how much she really wished that she could have made it on time for the “Push” panel. It’s so weird to see how tall she is! I always remember her as the little girl in “I am Sam” or “Uptown Girls.”

After we all managed to get out of Hall H, we had to find our way to Room 28E so that I could get the Twilight casts’ autograph!! We went upstairs and I got into the line. The wait wasn’t too bad…maybe 15 minutes. Then I got into the room and OMG! They look so gorgeous up close and in person! I was standing in line and I noticed that Cam wasn’t busy signing anyone’s poster, so I called out his name and said “Cam! I loved you on ‘The O.C.’!” and then he shook his hands in the air was like “yeah!!” haha he was so sweet and funny!

So when I got to the table, the first person I met was Stephenie. I told her that I was so excited to meet her, she’s an amazing author, and the Twilight series made me love to read because I rarely read for fun. She said that she was glad that she made reading enjoyable for me. She also commented on my shirt and she thought it was really pretty! Next was Catherine…she was so sweet. I told her that I’m sure she did an amazing job with Twilight because she’s a great director.

Next was ROBERT!!!!!!! I told him that his hair was super sexy and he was like “Really? Thanks! Most people find it annoying.” haha I told him that it was perfect that way it is ^_^ Then I said that I didn’t think he had big feet (remember that MTV news interview?) and he laughed and said that he didn’t think so either. He looked at my shirt and I told him that Ransom was outside (because I had “Spunk” written on my shirt and my sister had “Ransom” written on hers, but sadly she didn’t win the raffle, so she couldn’t go into the room with me.) He laughed and covered his face because he never knew that the fans would take the nickname he made up so seriously. Next, I delivered a message for Myesha and said that if she married Rob, she’d clap for him between every take of every movie he’d make. Rob thought that was sweet and he laughed.

Then it was KRISTEN!!! Her skin is so pretty! I told her that she was so funny during the panel and I loved all of her movies…even her cameo in “Jumper!” I told her that I memorized her 8-word dialogue in the movie! haha She said that was sweet and she watched “Jumper” for the first time the other day and she thought it was funny.

Then came Taylor! What a cutie! I told him that I thought he was so handsome and he said “thanks, that’s really sweet” and he shook my hand ^_^ Then came Edi and he asked “where’s Ransom?” So I told him that my sister had “Ransom” on her shirt, but she was outside the room. He asked me how everyone got the opportunity to get into the autograph signing and I explained to him the raffle and everything.

Then came Rachelle!! He hair is gorgeous! Such a pretty color! I told her that she did a great job during the panel. She said that she was really nervous because there were so many people, but I said at least the lights were off, so that she couldn’t see all 6,500 people. haha She agreed that that was a good thing…she said she was trying to take pics of the crowd while she was up there. Lol

And last but not least was gorgeous CAM!!!!! He told me that Kim’s a good name because he has a niece (or someone…I was to in awe of his hotness to remember. lol) named Kim. I told him that he was super funny during the panel and that I wouldn’t mind having him bite me *gasp* lol He laughed and told me to remember that I said that *blush* hehehe

Then, sadly, I had to leave the room after one last look at that freaking gorgeous cast *sigh*

After all of that madness, we decided to go downstairs to go into the main exhibit hall where all the booths were. We found the Summit Pictures booth, but there were so many people there and we needed vouchers to take pics with the cardboard cutouts, so we didn’t get to take pics with the cardboard cutouts…it’s ok though…I’ll photoshop my sister and I into a pic. lol. Also, they ran out of Twilight trading cards so we didn’t get those, but out friend is working one of the booths on Saturday and Sunday, so she said she’d try and visit the booth and get us Twilight stuff.

Even thought it was only 4:30 pm, we were all drained and dead tired…someone even had a meltdown (love you! <3) so we decided it was time to go home.

The End.

Pics will be in the next entry =)
