Reading Marathon: The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay






It's been a while since I last read a book. I know, I know, I'm behind in my monthly goal but I managed to read 3 books in one week - that is how addicted I can get when I'm hooked to something.

I will not dwell on the summary except that it's set in a post apocalyptic time and in order to remind people that the Capitol is in power, they hold Hunger Games yearly. Hunger games is a game wherein children ages twelve to eighteen fight it off in a different environment. The remaining survivor will be rewarded with food and supply for the rest of their lives. The whole series revolves around Katniss Everdeen and her life in Panem.


I love the series. It was so well articulated that I could picture it in my mind, from the gold tattoos to the silver parachutes which makes me even more excited because the book will be made into a movie next year.

The last book, Mockingjay, was published last year hence the late post since I hate cliffhangers.

Katniss will be played by Jennifer Lawrence and Peeta will be played by Josh Hutcherson.

Eeeee! Fan girl alert! By the way, I tried buying Mockingjay last weekend and it was sold out! Bummer! I wanted to support a great writer.

I can't wait to see the movie.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Mo Twister, Narnia and Bitch Smile

December 3, 2010 Today we got a surprise visit from Mo Twister and Rhian Ramos. Noj had business meeting with him and he toured them around the office. We managed to get a quick picture with him before they left. Kevin with Rhian Ramos. He's quite red from all the attention he's getting. Group picture with Mo. My height: 5' 3 1/2". Outfit post: black cardigan from f21 rompers from landmark chain belt from Mango tights from Samsung Fashion shoes from Rubi We also got free tickets for Narnia tonight. It was okay. The best part about the movie is that I got to see snow again(The movie was in 3D). We arrived quite late and I missed the first 10 minutes but my brother told me nothing much happened. I did miss a few great 3D effects. Ended the night with dinner at Recipes with Noj, April, Finj, Em, Rommel and Donna. Where Donna once again practiced her "bitch smile" aka Heart Evangelista smile. Hipstamatic pictures using Em's Iphone. Drool! I want one but it co...
