Field Anderson!

Anderson is out of the office again, he's wearing a blue shirt, puts his life in danger just because. 

Be careful, Andy!

*the sun is hiding, so am i. i need rain.*

He's Out!

Finally, it's out in the open, I don't think it's a surprise at all. It's been a long time coming Andy. But to be honest I still felt a pang. I didn't expect that at all because I know. I knew. I've always known. The truth hurts I guess but it's better this way.

I initially started this blog for you, I had a lot of delusions and not enough people to tell it to so... here I am, seven years since I first saw you, I still watch AC360, still crushing on you like a giggly school girl. Love yah Andy!!!

Anderson Confusion

I'm a bit confused... a friend from Arizona tells me that Anderson is moving to CBS (I knew it... he'll be following Erica Hill) and yet from what I know... he's not! He's got no business with them other than 60 Minutes. But this friend tells me the teaser is being shown in Arizona already. It's either she's lying or I'm in denial.

Oh, please, let it not happen! Not that I don't want Andy to grow it's just that CBS is unknown in this country, we only have CNN, BBC and Bloomberg. Or, I could be wrong...

This is what I know, come September Andy will be hosting a daytime talk-show on CNN and I have the photo to prove it, this shot among others was taken exactly on my birthday... we are so connected, aren't we?

Just because...

I found me a photo of Andy walking about in NYC just because... full story can be found here.

No Explanation Needed

Really. you don't need to explain... we love you... I love you just the way you are.

This made my day!

An hour long of giggle fit is just what I need after a busy day or night in my case!

Something to wake me up on a Monday afternoon!

My man is looking good! How cute are those wrinkles on his forehead?

What the...

Doesn't this remind you of this? Anderson is haunting me, again.
This is what I get for wandering away from him. weee....

Hello, stranger!

Happy birthday my love!

Tsunami of a Disaster

This past two weeks had been... well... I initially wrote "hell" (in my mind, of course) but just now I decided to change it to busy because what I've gone through the past days are nothing compared to what the Japanese are going through right now.

The devastation is just so vast that it's like watching a scene from a movie, it seems so surreal.

Seven minutes after the quake the tsunami came crashing... there was just not enough time... to run... to get yourself together... to recover from the initial shock of the quake... not enough time to look for your love ones... not enough time to warn everyone about the big waves!

And let's not forget about the Nuclear plant in Fukushima!

It's so reminiscent of the 2004 tsunami but the big difference is that the Japanese people are just so calm and disciplined all the time, the shortest way to describe it is they don't kill each other for food and water! And they all managed to look cute still...










Kidding aside, I wonder who did they call when the earthquake shook them? Who did they call when the waves were about to crush them?

82 million Japanese do not believe in God. Think about it.


As always, my Anderson is in Japan covering the story... and once again I'll be watching the houses reduced to rubles, the lives lost and the pain from it all through his eyes... be careful, Anderson!

Anderson doesn't drink but somehow Lady Gaga got him drunk!

Nerd Alert!

He had to choose the nerdiest-looking eyeglasses to "cure" his astigmatism and yet he still managed to look gorgeous:




Reminding me of my other TV boyfriend, Simon Baker:

Good job!

I'm loving Isha Sesay with Anderson Cooper, they're a good pair!

He got to interview Dan Rather Not and Walter Cranky, so cute and so adorkable of him. I can't wait to watch it but it won't be shown until September of next year. (in the US not here, damn!)

What a bummer!

special thanks to storm0611 for the wonderful screencaps

i miss anderson :(

Anderson is on vacation this week, I was told. To get my mind off of him I browsed the internet not particularly looking for anything when I found this:

This, of course is Gary Lightbody, lead vocalist and songwriter for Snow Patrol (i've got a bit of a crush on him).

Doesn't it remind you of this:

Anderson is haunting me, haha!!!

It's good to be back

It's so good to be back! I think i've seen the the strongest storm in my life... well, okay, it's not the strongest that ever hit Metro Manila but it was the first storm that i have ever seen, literally! My kids and I were at the second floor of our house in front of the glass sliding door fronting our terrace. Ooops, didn't everyone adviced us not to stand in front of the window or glass door in case of a storm? I didn't listen.

My kids and I saw everything! Roofs being ripped from houses, woods, chunks of metals, branches of trees being carried by the gusting wind of 185 kph and, of course, let's not forget about the punishing torrential rains. The next day, I saw the most beautiful day in my life! The sun was up in all it's glory, the birds were chirping happily but the trees... the big old trees... which once stood proudly along Estrada street, were now uprooted with no dignity left and now considered a road obstruction.

The city was paralyzed, I wasn't able to watch the news as most part of the city had no electricity even when the electricity was restored... the cable was still out so no TV still for us. But we're back to normal now. It's so good to be back!

When we got our cable connection back... boy, oh, boy! The timing was perfect! I saw the Ac360 commercial last night, he's back on the field and he'll be spending time with me (on CNNI) from Wednesday to Friday! Again... it's so good to be back!

I was a little sick this past couple of days so I decided to take a day off the other day and rest. Turned the TV on and hopefully waited for AC on CNNi. He didn't let me down, I spent some time with AC for two full hours. I got better! "So... was it an andersickness or anderwithdrawal?" my husband asked me when I told him that I spent some time with AC. "It doesn't matter," I said, "He made me feel better, that's all I know." Haha... Anyway, I'm sure I won't see him anymore on CNNi because he's coming home to NY.

To get me through another long anderless days... I'm posting this caps.

Sophia

I love this song, I've been listening to it for two weeks now and I can't shake it off my head. It's by Nerina Pallot.




Sophia

Five o’ clock and a fire escape symphony
Spilling out across the road and the square
And the sky’s the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks and trees and the leaves reach you there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me....
Calling out, again, and again....
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out. Sophia, Sophia,
I’m learning that some things I can’t go without
And one of those is him.

And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my home town,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak.
But he changed me, I’m his ghost since he came around
Now I count the hours, and the days and the weeks.....
In passion and silence,
Every word, every line a measure It’s the science of the soul.
And his books, they breathe a reason
And now, I want to know.....
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out.
Sophia, Sophia, I’m learning that some things
I can’t go without And one of those is him.

And you, with your new born eyes,
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
Do you hurt, but still feel alive Like never before?
Oh Sophia! Sophia!
Sophia, Sophia, I’m burning, I’m burning
It’s a fire, a fire I cannot put out.
Sophia, Sophia,
I’m learning that some things I can’t go without
I can’t go without him.


(I wish I wrote the lyrics, I could see AC all over it)

Be safe, Anderson!

Man! Anderson is in Afghanistan, I hope he stays safe. I miss AC, sigh...

One thing I notice though, something is wrong with his haircut, is it too short? or was it cut the wrong way? Is it me or the sides are wayyyyyy too short and yet middle part is rather long?

I think I need to sleep, maybe he'll look better when I wake up.

Big thanks to Stillife for the screencap.
