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

How stuff works: Piso Bid anyone?

First of all, I am in no way, related to the owners of Pisobid.com at present (it's a small world after all) and I'm writing this blog because I like to analyze and figure out how things work :) I was reading through my Ymail when I saw this ad for Pisobid.com. The name caught my attention and all that was running through my mind was the thrill of bidding - Ebay alert hihihi. When the website opened, I saw that there were a lot of gadgets up for grabs, among the lot was an iPhone 4 which I really wanted but didn't have the heart to spend Php 40,000 for a cellphone. Upon closer inspection, they are giving away ipads, LV bags and GCs. Hmmmmm.... let's give it a try! I never did like reading instructions and policy agreements so I just purchased a 35 bids for Php 500 so that I can start bidding. It's actually pretty easy to bid, all it takes is a click of a button, money is gone. HAHAHA In the pisobid, you actually use real money to buy bid, in this case, 1 bid ...
