J and my 3-year anniversary falls in five days. But since the actual date is a Monday, we will be celebrating this Saturday instead…in true nerd fashion. That’s right — we will be attending Harry Potter: The Exhibition at Discovery Times Square! (We also have reservations at my favorite steak house this side of the […]
It’s confession time, boys and girls! I don’t particularly like the book The Devil Wears Prada. I don’t think the movie was that great either (despite the oh-so-fab outfits). So why is it that I’ve read the book numerous times, and watched the movie more times than I would like to admit? Are there any […]
So I had no idea that the iconic publisher Penguin had started a series called Graphic Penguin Classics which takes popular and classic novels and redesigns the covers, illustrated by today’s hottest graphic artists. (You can get a better look at the covers at this Flickr Set.) This is yet another lesson that reminds you […]
One of the many things I am thankful to my parents is that they never discouraged my love for reading while growing up. We were very, very poor in my early years of life but they always put aside money for my books. My mother would make time to take me and my sister to […]
I try to read to Claire every day but I must admit that I still feel a bit silly reading to an infant whose neverending drool threatens to soak the book with each turn of the page. And frankly, I find most books that are designed to be read to babies are…well, boring. Oh how I […]
This Harry Potter infographic was compiled in “The Daily Prophet” wizarding newspaper style. It’s a bit difficult to read, but cleverly arranged and a must-read for any Harry Potter fan. Via Nerd Approved. P.S. — Speaking of Harry Potter facts, I am still eagerly awaiting the inevitable release of a Harry Potter edition of Trivial Pursuit. […]
The purveyor of my favorite notebooks has done it again. Moleskine has announced a collection of limited edition notebooks which pays tribute to the classic tale by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: Le Petit Prince (or, The Little Prince in English). The Little Prince has been one of my favorite books ever since I first read it in […]

What if your favorite television/movie character were to attend the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Where would the Sorting Hat assign them? I remember taking a Sorting Hat quiz aeons ago and finding out that I would be sorted into Ravenclaw. As much as the books make Gryffindor to be the house to be in, […]
For the record, I think that Vader kicks Voldemort’s butt any day. Via Geekologie. P.S. — Have you watched HP7 Part 1 yet? J and I managed to sneak away for a few hours last night to catch it and…well, it’s like what I’ve always said about the Harry Potter movies: each consecutive movie is […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
