You can find jewels in a book

Turf: at one corner of bed
Dash: reading The Great Gatsby




I'm in search for the book to read, out of so many The Alchemist was caught my attention. My guest, the cover because it's too middle east where I spend half decade of my life and the title, but I am so reluctant to read it since I am over and done with any dark books. It's so passé for me. But the book is so irresistible when you know the author is none other than the international award lyricist and novelist Paulo Coelho. So, I don't want to miss a thing. I said I should give it a try, I will just read a few lines and if it doesn't suit to my taste  I won't continue reading it. As I've read I forgot that I have read so many pages already, that I am so engrossed into every word I read. It seems that there is an aromatic taste that you can't leave it, until it finish.

I forgot to mention that this book is not like other fiction books with the fangs and other gruesome character to scare you, but this book is a light and inspirational one. So, it's not a dark one. And the romance in between is so mysterious, where you can ask, "is he going back for her or not?". I leave you hanging on that particular question, so you might have a little grasp of what the story of this book should have. Aren't you interested now? GO, GET IT, AND READ IT!



The book is so brilliantly written, the phase of the story is like a footprint in the sand that you want to follow the trail until you discover what's on the end of this travel. You're not going to be sorry reading it as you can find a jewel as you turn page by page that you can use and apply it to your daily life. It has lessons to learn in life. It is like a piece of cake where you can find enjoyment reading it and a treasure where you can always you use in daily life.


Right now, I've started reading The Great Gatsby the first page is already amusing and I'm sure this is another book to treasure. Of course, written by American greatest writers of the 20th Century F. Scott Fitzgerald. So, I just lay back and relax.

I hope that I could give you update as soon as I finish reading it.

So, start rummaging your bookshelf or running to the bookstore and grab one that can also be your life treasure. Happy reading.

Cocktail of Emotions

Turf: at my nest
Dash: watching vleague final



The past few weeks had gone fast, so many unexpected moments of twist and turns. Life has indeed miraculous. You will learn from it as the day goes and pass by.

If only I could pour out all my emotions here in this blog and pretend that no one would ever read this, but I'm still cautious about personal matters to be tackled on privately. On this past few days, rains pours heavily like it was going to flood if it wasn't stopped in an hour or so, but then, the news is liked rain it pours when it pours. It doesn't give any warning to give you a minute to prepare yourself. So, I'm flooded.

A news that no one wants to ever hear but it's part of life evolution, everyone has its time to depart from this world and travels to another life as it is already written. So, we met my cousin Ate EMs and break the ice as she told us that our cousin has passed away and it seems unexpected death, but who can expect death. No one, isn't it? Kuya Roy is funny, kind, nice, and always there to tickle your bones. There is no dull moment as I recall when he is still with us. He always smiles, laughs, jokes around, a part of him that curves in my memories. Ah, memories that I can cherish as long as I live. Though, he travels short in this so-called world. I guess, he traveled this life with fun and enjoyment. The only saddest part is we haven't seen each other for more than a decade ago, and yet, the absence make it forever. So, in this moment of solitude the only thing I could do is offer a prayer for him and pray for the repose of his soul, that he may rest in peace in the loving arms of our Lord.

A crying sister over the phone from thousand of miles away across the world, where you couldn't give your shoulder for her to lean on, or hug her in your arms to give her warmth in this coldest time in her life. And the thing you could do is give her an encouraging and inspirational words to pacify her beefy feelings. But still prayers, is the best offering for our loved ones and only GOD can solve it.

And today, is a mixed emotion of feelings. I rather go first for not so sad but rather disappointing news, my favorite singer has come out in the open regarding her gender preferences. But I respect her disposition in life, since it is her personal matters and who am I to question about it. Yet, I'm a bit bruised about the news. Maybe because I had dreamt that she would fall in love with a man I had imagined for her (and that's the only reason why I'm battered blues about the news). Regarding my fandom status, I will be forever a Chasters and I wish nothing but the best in life for her.

Like I always said to myself life is like a mixed of colors. Dark clouds may pass by in our lives but it will only pass by, because no clouds has stayed dark that has never been cleared. True enough. Today is VLeague Final Game 3, its Lady Bulldogs (NU) Vs. Lady Eagles (ADMU). I have been waiting for this bout for almost a week, though Lady Bulldogs is a Rookie in this final, but I go for them. Yes, I shout out for them to the extent that my lungs will come out. Indeed, they didn't fail me (as if they promise me to WIN in this final. Laughs.). Lady Bulldogs beat the Lady Eagles and have their first taste of the Champions. Though then I had been flooded with mixed emotions, but in the end it is washed away with happiness.


We deem those happy who, from the experience of life, have learned to bear its ills, without being overcome by them. --Juvenal
