Books as blessings

Hi, 2014! Hello, people!
Yes, my blog deserves a greeting like that because.. dude, another year has passed! Geez. Days now are getting so much faster than they were before. Anyway, another year means not totally a clean slate but a fresh start. To be honest, I was really planning to change my bad habits into good ones but I’ve realized I’ve been trying that ever since and well.. I still keep on coming back to those not so good habits of mine. That’s why I decided just to not lose myself on track. Anyway, the bad habits I talk about are not really that bad like what you are thinking. Haha. They are just the normal teenagers’ probs. LOL.
This blog post is not entirely about the new year. Thus, I want to share with all of you the books I’ve received last holidays. To everyone who’s been a part of my life, they know how obsessed I am (hey, they call me in that way!) when it comes to books. I also realized that because nowadays I keep reading books and just putting internet aside. That’s when I knew to myself that I changed my attitude a little bit when it comes to my books. A good thing, eh?
Here it goes, the first one was 548 heartbeats given to me by a great friend, Eliza.
Yes, reading Summit Books (Pop Fiction) is included in the obsession I mentioned earlier. I know you’d understand me because most of the books they are selling are for teenagers like me. So, why not let myself feel kilig just this time? Like, I don’t have a boyfriend anyway. :P The story suits for every high school girl (with or without a boyf) because think about this.. Who doesn’t have a crush? Who haven’t had a crush? Well, the answers say it all. The story or the book may be cliché but whatever, I still enjoyed reading it.

The next one is The Lovely Bones which my best friend Gail bought for me because I REQUESTED FOR IT. Yeah, what a lucky biatch I am! *winks*
I personally requested for it because I was so curious about the story. Though, it has a movie version already, ever since I have always been a fan of the book version. The story itself made me feel how important my life is. True. The story deals about situations regarding with your family, friends and everyone who surrounds you. I haven’t watched the movie yet and I’m so looking forward to it.

My kris kringle (for Christmas party) asked my friends in our room which book to buy for me. And the day came, he bought me “For Hire: A Damn Good Kisser”. Yuppie, another Pop Fiction book again. I just read the book now and I don’t know if the ending was really meant to be in that way because I was in the mood “asking for more”. Obviously, I read in its book version. BUT, the story has actually a lot of humor and spice. If you want to still feel kilig but somehow in a different way, try reading this one.

I’ve also gotten the latest installment of Diary of A Wimpy Kid: The Hard Luck. Yes! It feels like, “Finallyyyy!!!” When my ate (cousin) was about to buy a gift for me (she told me she was actually planning to buy me a dress) but I told her it would be much better if she’d buy the book for me. And luckily, she did. She and her boyfriend told me that it was the last piece already at Fully Booked Glorietta. And yes, I was a lucky biatch again. Hahaha!
Like every Diary of a Wimpy Kid I’ve read, it got me laughing so hard to the point that I looked like a girl who totally find the book so interesting. It also became my stress reliever that time. The books pretty much focused about friendship which was accurate in that moment. Until now. It was definitely worth the money! <3

If you’re going to ask me if they are worth my time and money (though I wasn’t the one who bought them), yes they are. You see, they are really my personal choices and I thankmy friends and family who spent their money just to give me satisfaction by giving me these books. Hey, I am also grateful for all the stuff they've given me! But I will be more honest, books always get me. ;) 

I promise to let you know which book I am reading for the moment! <3 But for now, wish me luck for my 3rd grading exams. Besos!
