Why do people read novels?

It's been a long time since I last picked up a book.

The last book I read was a couple of months ago. The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Truth be told, I have forgotten what it's like to read a book, to get that exciting rush of emotions intertwined with my everyday routine. I am quite emotional, I cry at moving commercials and touching scenes- and no matter how many times I've seen it, it always makes me cry. I like books that excite me whether its an action packed, suspense or romance novel. I'm all for it. I normally judge a book from the short plot in the back. If I like it, I buy it.

Reading gives me a quick escape - a fantasy propelled by imagination of how an exciting life can be. I secretly want to be the protagonist, leading the life of adventure/action/romance seeing the world in a different lens, jumping from one to the next.

Reading can take me to different places I've only dreamed about. Reading brings to life imagination.

I am happy that I've re-discovered my love for reading. Now if only I can afford all of them.

Keep on reading :)

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

Ironic Cafe Monaco

Tucked in one of the building along Banawe is a quaint restaurant called Cafe Monaco. From the outside, the interiors looked cozy and perfect for hanging out with friends but I was quite surprised when I stepped inside to find out that most tables were occupied by families. And people actually are willing to wait for their turn to be seated! Kudos for that. My basis for choosing a restaurant is based on the line/wait. If the line is long or the waiting list is long, then it must be worth trying. We ate dinner at this restaurant yesterday evening and I actually loved it! It's a bit weird though that the name of the restaurant is Cafe Monaco but they serve a lot of Korean dishes. My aunt said that the owner of the place married a Korean hence the menu with Korean dishes. We tried bibimbap and at first bite, it was okay but the more you chew the better it gets. Healthy too, with little meat in the dish. Prices are friendly on the pocket too so I will definitely go back to try out thei...
