See No Sunlight book

I saw the book as part of a bookstore billboard in a mall near my office and it says Team Vampire (then the cover of New Moon) vs Team Angel ( and the breathtaking cover of Hush, Hush). Aren't we all intrigued by this book's cover. Clearly the saying "Don't judge this book by its cover" does not apply to this one because when you see its cover it will make you grab the copy and buy the book.
I bought the book at around 8pm of Saturday night and devoured the book until 4 in the morning of Sunday, it wasn't my intention not to let him see sunrise, I just could not put it down. Amidst all the vampire craze (not that I'm not a fan) I was secretly looking for something new but have similar concept, young adult's novel, mythical character, mysterious kind of guy, which I gladly found in the book.
It was nice to know a little something about angels, their rank and their somewhat political views as well. I like the twist of the story and how they are connected. I pictured Patch as Devil Jin in Tekken and found him attractive and sexy in a goth kind of way.
I feel somehow that development of romance between Patch and Nora weren't fully developed and could have added more contact or mysteries involving the two of them.
A lot might have compared this book to the Twilight Saga, which they have several things in common, (Spoiler Alert!) the Biology partners, mind reading thing, mysterious guy involved because of being a not supposed to be an existing character. But overall it was a good read, a very nice breather from the Vampire clan, maybe Patch can start his legion. Let us wait for Crescendo then.
But for now this one is Shelved.

My Pot of Gold

At the End of the Rainbow there's a pot of Gold, and I've found mine after years of hunting and waiting. I know a lot of bloggers have blogged about this, how heavenly they tasted and how they crave for more, but I just want to share the reason why I bought the ice cream and why I am blogging about this… When I was a kid, since my Dad likes English movies, I was exposed to Hollywood movies, I would cover my eyes if there’s a kissing scene or learn a few English bad words but I can not forget how they depict that ice cream is a good comfort food which I learned when I grew a little older that it was a great comfort food, but since I was a kid I would wish that I can eat ice cream the way Hollywood stars eat their ice cream in the movies. From the dark covered pint cup, with their silver spoon digging to the creamy and tasty ice cream that waters in their mouth that would always make their eyes close savoring the flavor. I don’t know with others but we eat our ice cream in...

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...
