March Book Recommendations

    

Our first entry for our monthly recommendations.
This month’s theme is HOME.
Books about home, books that reminds you of home, books that made you feel at home, and books that are home.

Shiver

I'm looking for songs from my parents' generation. I found some of my old favorites. I remember myself when I was about 5 years old. I let our player play these for me until I fall asleep. And I'd like to share them with you.

I'm not really good at titles. I put 'Shiver' because during cold days, they make me feel warm. And coffee, of course.

I hope you'd find peace of mind and some time away from the modern mainstream songs that we hear everyday. :)

The edit is failed though. I don't have enough time to exert more effort for it. I'm kinda busy.
Anyways, here's how the track list go (and the download links):

  ♫ Drive by Incubus
   ♫ Passenger Seat by Stephen Speaks
   ♫ I'll Be by Edwin McCain
   ♫ She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5
   ♫ Perfect by Simple Plan
   ♫ My Immortal by Evanescence
   ♫ The Reason by Hoobastank
   ♫ You and Me by Lifehouse

33rd Manila International Book Fair

How the day went:

• There were tons of people. The place was flooded with books, bookworms, and heaps of more books! It felt like paradise!
• We saw some of our teachers a while ago at McDo.
• I finally got a copy of Anna Dressed in Blood! I do hope it's worth a read. :)
• Today was surely fun even though I had a headache, felt like vomiting, got quite dizzy but still, I had a great time. Not only I get to spend some quali-tea time with my friends (HAHAHA) I also get to be surrounded by awesome bookworms and books. ‘Till next year again!
• Camille Co was at MOA too! I think she was hosting some kind of a seminar, I'm not sure though.
• (4th photo) “Listen to your heart. You are loved.” I found this note on one of the bookshelves in Fully Booked. I don’t know if it came from a customer or from the staff. It may not be intended to be given to me or whoever but I felt really lucky to find it. I placed a smile on my face. It was such a sweet serendipity.

A whimsical trip to Lucban, Quezon. (Landscape spam)

Photos while on the road. I was behind glass which explains why it's blurry. :)

(Dramatic sunlight shot)

In the Garden of Eden.

 (Adam and Eve)

 (I love this shot because that ray of sunlight made the entire photo better.)

We climbed 200 steps to reach the top of the Garden. It was so exhausting that I almost hurled. But it was worth it because the view was enthralling! But unfortunately, I wasn't able to take some shots because I was too tired. Sorry about that Haha.
Our teachers call these trips "educational". I disagree. I mean, sure we learned how to save a drowning individual but would the lessons really matter if the pool was like 4 feet deep and some of my batchmates didn't even know how to swim? Oh god. But hey, I enjoyed the trip anyway so yeah . :)
