it's official!! oh yeah!
"Upstart netlet the CW will add just one new sitcom and one new drama to its first fall lineup, preferring to rely mostly on returning WB and UPN faves. "Girlfriends" spin off "The Game" and Darren Star drama "Runaway" scored series pickups, while the Kevin Williamson sudser "Palm Springs" -- ontap for midseason -- landed an eight-episode green light. Bubble shows "Veronica Mars" and "One Tree Hill" also made the cut, with full 22-episode orders."

One Tree Hill has been picked up for Season 4!! =) Yes!! This is so far, the best news I have ever received this summer! The moment I read it here and here, my heart flipped and for a moment there I think I had a heart attack. Haha. I am so HAPPY right now because for those who still don't know, I am obssessed with One Tree Hill and it's my number one favorite show of all time. So yeheeeey for me and the million OTH fans out there! Filming will start around July, I think, and hopefully the new season will air in late September or early October. Wow, just in time for my birthday. Can't wait!!! =) Yesterday, I finished watching Season 3 and all I can say was OHMYGOSH. It was no doubt the best season yet. The last few episodes were filled with almost everything -- love, happiness, sadness, confusion, basketball and all the elements that makes it great. The season finale left me totally shocked and hanging. I'm tempted to tell what happened in the end but of course, I will not because that would ruin the surprise for everyone else. After seeing it, all I could say to myself was, "What's going to happen?" because honestly it stunned me. Really, it did. It really deserves another season. Thanks to all those who voted! =) And keep watching, okay?
 Can he get any hotter?! I so ♥ love him. By the way, I have a new layout -- in case you haven't noticed. It features the one and only, Marilyn Monroe. After that clutch-binder thing, I decided to make her the face of my blog as well. I really find people from their era very beautiful. And stunning. Like Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly. And Marilyn Monroe is just one of them. She is considered the "most phenomenal bombshell of all time" and one of the best actresses in Hollywood. She died at a young age (36) but she left a great mark in the history of the silver screen. And besides, she's hot. =) Hehe. Comments would be much appreciated. =)
Something happened to my knee and now I can barely walk. I've been hopping around all day yesterday since my right leg was basically useless. It hurts like hell when I bend and stretch my knee! And I'm home alone! I have to wash the dishes, clean the house, go up and down the stairs ON ONE LEG. So I went to the doctor yesterday and she gave me medicine and an ointment. Thankfully, the ointment did a pretty good job and now I can walk a little bit (though it still hurts). I hope this goes away by weekend because we're booked at a hotel and I want to go swimming! Waaah. You know I miss a lot of people from school already. The people I used to hang out with every morning, the people I'm always with the whole day long, the people in my pull-out classes, the people in my section, the people in the corridor, the people in the other buildings.. basically everybody. And you know what's weird? I chat with these people on Y!M, I talk to them over the phone, I text them, I communicate with them on Friendster, I see them on their blogs.. I know what's been happening to them and how they are. And yet there is still something missing. I guess nothing really beats being with these people in person. I miss them A LOT! Can't wait to see them. =)
American Idol eliminations later. Oh I hope Elliott goes through the next round! He's amazing. He deserves to be in the finals. But you know how AI is, nothing is impossible, even the best people get voted out (read: Chris). Hayyy. Go Elliott Yamin! =)
"You ever heard the expression 'The best things in live are free'? Well that expression is true. Every once in a while, people step up they rise above themselves sometimes they surprise you and sometimes they fall short. Life is funny sometimes. It can push pretty hard but if you look close enough, you can find hope in the words of children, in the bars of the song and in the eyes of someone you love. And if you're lucky, if you're the luckiest person on this entire planet,the person you love decides to love you back."

Hello, I'm Karla Bernardo. If you Google my name, you will find the Wikipedia entry of a Canadian serial-killer (and trust me, you do not want
to read about that - but I'm sure you will because now you're curious), which is why I suggest you type Bombastarr instead so you can stalk me better.
I spent eight-and-a-half years of my life in the University of the Philippines, where I graduated with degrees in Creative Writing and Juris Doctor. It is also where I learned how to speak a bit of Italian, got a taste of the best tapsilog, and took striptease for PE.
I love telling stories, as much as I enjoy finding them.

Ask, and you shall be answered
Got a comment, question, violent reaction, love letter, or random piece of information you want to share with me? Just fire away. I don't bite.
(I changed my form and went back to Freedback because Ask.fm's being a bitch, requiring people to sign up for accounts before asking questions. Because I love you guys, I tweaked my ask box a bit, so that the questions will now go directly to my e-mail, but I'll be posting the answers still on my Ask.fm for convenience. TL;DR - I'll still be getting your questions so no worries. You're still free to harass me / send me your love.)

Most Frequently Asked QuestionAre you a pornstar?No, I am not a pornstar, stripper, or your friendly neighborhood call girl. It's just a fancy pseudonym with a long history, and two R's. Rawr.
Bombastarr.com
Bombastarr is my personal blog and my little corner in the Internet since 2005. Yes, I started writing here when I was 13 years old (aka when I was very angsty, hormonal, and always gushing at the littlest things) -- ergo, you'd have to forgive me if you come across an old post that reeks of immaturity and slightly unpolished grammar. I did a lot of growing up here, and from the looks of it, there's still a lot of growing up to do, so I don't think I'll be leaving this place any time soon.
The domain, Bombastarr.com, was purchased on June 2014 and
launched on July 2014, on the blog's ninth year (and fifth month, to be exact).
It's crazy to think that this blog is now thirteen years old, because (1) that seems like an eternity in internet years, and (2) that means if my blog were a kid, it's a teenager! That's insane.
Here's to more tales, explosive and otherwise.
So, why Bombastarr?
If you've been living under a rock and think I'm a threat to world peace or an object of covetousness, sorry to disappoint you, folks: it's just a fancy pseudonym.
As in most things, it started in high school. It began as a joke between me and a couple of friends during our freshman year. We were practicing for a field demonstration dance which involved the use of shawls, and being the crazy-always-trying-to-be-funny person that I was (or I always attempted to be) I started doing poses with the garment. Someone started taking my picture using my phone, and one shot looked like I was posing for those B-list movies (or should it be R-list, as in R-rated?) of the vegetable-nomenclature variety. #IKYWIM. Hence, the word, "Bombastarr." Yes, very cheeky, I know, but for a 13-year-old, it was quirky enough to figure as a username. That was 2005, right around the time I trying to decide on a URL for a new blog. It's been a lot of years since, and what started as a joke became something I've eventually embraced as an identity.
Despite the many other chances I've gotten to permanently move (to Multiply, Livejournal, Tumblr, Wordpress; to a bigger platform where I can earn or use the blog as a venue for commerce), I've come to realize that Bombastarr is something I can never truly leave behind. It is a place I've grown to appreciate and love because it is a place I can call my own. It's a venue for my rants, my views, my writing. It is home, and it is who I am.
Bombastarr is a glimpse of my life: the thoughts, ideas, and stories that shape it into what it is, and what it will still become. This journal has been with me for all my crazy, often embarrassing adventures, but I'm sure there will be more anecdotes and feelings and people to write about. Which is something I'm really looking forward to. After all, you know what they say about the greatest stories - sometimes, there's still a lot that's left unwritten.
