Fifty Shades Trilogy

I was influenced by a friend to read the trilogy. So I did. Surprisingly, I liked it.
I'm not drawn at how detailed and erotic the sex part in the novel was but it's more of the excitement of the female character being chased by a multi-billionaire, handsome, too-good-to-be-true, prince charming, knight in shining armor, dude which most of the girls dream about like a fairy tale. The feeling of being too lucky and the envy of all girls but yet so clueless and challenged to learn his mystery. The author was able to capture and relate what a woman will think if she is in that situation.
I am in the book two of he trilogy and I can't wait to read more and find out if the female character, Anna Steele, will be able to make the male character, Christian Grey, LOVE her.

Now I've heard that they are going to make this a movie and rumor has it that that the film makers are choosing between Matt Bomer and Ian Somerhald. Well, my vote goes to Ian Somerhald. I've seen him in an interview with Ryan Seacrest in Youtube and he is exactly how I have Christian Grey in my mind.

Positive Thinking

Kiko and I had a serious conversation earlier. I'm getting frustrated at the rate we're going in terms of getting our goals done.

A quote I've read somewhere popped into my head, one day: "One Great Step". Actually, it's been lingering for weeks now and it just pops in everytime I think about my goals and dreams. This may have triggered my sort-of heated conversation with Kiko earlier.

From now on, I need to pat my self and remind that "It only takes one great (bold/giant) step" to get to the destination I wanted to go.
