This week I learned…

… that the Twilight saga’s “Breaking Dawn” film will be released on November 18, 2011. It looks like they’re not splitting the movie into two parts. The movie will be directed by Bill Condon, whose previous works include Dreamgirls, Kinsey and Gods and Monsters. This was my least favorite book in the series, but I’ll still go see it. I wonder how it’s going to turn out!

… that it’s okay to eat food that’s fallen on the floor. Knowing that it’s okay and actually eating fallen food is a different thing though!

… that the hamster is one of nature’s meanest mommies. Apparently sometimes it gets so threatened by its young it decides to eat it. Scary!

… that “Dead in the Family,” the 10th book in the Sookie Stackhouse series, is coming out in May 2010. I’ve seen the preview chapter and I can’t wait to get my hands on that book!

… that I can throw in some exercise by tightening my abs every time I pick up the baby’s toys. He’s in the throwing phase and boy, it can get really tiring for Mommy the pulot (“pick up”) girl!

The Philippines’ National Election is on Monday, May 10. Vote wisely, fellow Pinoys. I pray that it will be a peaceful election. I hope that whoever loses won’t throw a tantrum and bombard Malacanang with rallies. Vote wisely and stay safe!

Happy weekend! What did YOU learn this week?

Hi! I'm Toni Tiu, and I've been blogging at at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog.
