Things I Wanna Do

There are lots of things I wanna do, and I am hopeful that I am able to do it in the next months and years.
Inspired by the book "Eat Pray Love", I told myself that I will be enrolling in the so much delayed Spanish class I wanted to take since back in my College years. (Way overdue right?). I do not know what I will do with it but heck, why do I need to think what I will do with it, It'll come handy someday.
I want to live alone, like my own, place, my own rules, my own choice of visitors. (For readers from another culture, in the Philippines it is not unusual that a mid twenty woman is still living in their parent's house, before they were only allowed to leave their parent's house when they have their own family already, or once she get married). So I thought of saving for this sanctuary I am longing to have.
I want to eat in a fancy restaurant, like authentic stakes or food on the menu you can't even pronounce and just point the picture to the attendant taking your order.
I want to go to Venice and ride the Gondola, and will not care if I'm going to ride it alone (that not very romantic, is it?).
I want to write my own book.
I want to design my own bookshelves and place my books I proudly have read (and displayed).
I want to do all crazy stuffs and just stopped thinking of what other people will say.

I want to do all these, not in a hurry though, I want to take my time and enjoy my life, and tell my experiences, retold stories I've heard and bring smile to people while sipping my favorite wine.

Home is where the Heart is

You can take the Pinoy out of the Philippines but, you can't take the Philippines out of the Pinoy. In the case, food... - Nicanor David Jr. from "Kwentong Tambay", 2006 Ah this one is true, I've heard of it. I came from a family who works abroad, halos lahat sila, actually konti na nga lang kami dito sa Pilipinas e. Anyway, back sa topic. My sister lives in UK been there for quite some time and she went here in the Philippines after 5 years and the first thing she asked me to do is Dial 8-7000 (singing: Jollibee Delivery). My Dad is in USA for, well, a very long time now and once in a awhile if there is a family friend visiting Philippines we will ask them to bring my dad several frozen tapa from the famous Maty's in Prañaque which is in a microwavable container. Filipinos can endure the work and long hours abroad but they can't really resist not to look for Filipino food. I remembered my cousin who's in Singapore she was telling us how she craved for ric...

The Reading Challenge

At the start of the year there were two reading challenges I committed myself to The Goodreads Reading Challenge where you will decide how many books you can read for the year. The other one I got from my cousin but upon searching in Google it's a Popsugar Reading Challenge.  I must have underestimated my annual calendar because I challenged my self to red 50 books in Goodreads. I thought "50 books? Oh that's nothing, I have all the time in the world." And guess what? It's mid of November and here's my reading challenge. Apparently I didn't plan on being too busy during mid year but I'm not complaining I just didn't expect it to be like that. Still, I'm happy to I have read 25 books so far. And these are mostly YA books. What's with YA anyway? Am I old to be reading it? But that's another blog entry I suppose. I am happy to discover new authors that I will sure follow (Sarah Haas, Cassandra Rose Clarke) and the likes. With these 2...

Weird of the weird

As you know, reading is the thing I love most and I can say things I know, like bits of trivia that I suddenly blurt out comes from the things I read, so there's a big chance that I dreamed of them as well. You know I'd like to dream about the handsome leading man in my Chic-lit books, or be the witty heroine from the magical world I once in a while read. But what are the odds of dreaming about a vampire. Nope. Not Edward Cullen but, traditional vampire, the blood sucking cruel creature we know. From my dream, he chased me, someone I know became a vampire and I really look succulent in his eyes so he attacked me and pin me down to suck the blood out of me,but not in the neck and looks sexy just like in the movies, no, he sucked my blood through my stomach, and I wonder if Vampire ever get High blood pressure, there were lots of fats from my belly. If you think that's th e weirdest of things, the next day I dreamt of a chimaera, a mythical creature who has a lion's head,...
