Dedication

Romantic novel is my favorite type of book. The one with a rich love story and the expected and-they-lived-happily ever-after.  I was in a bookstore browsing every shelves looking for a book until I stumble with this novel- Dedication. The synopsis goes like this.
“Kate Hollis’ ex-boyfriend’s face plasters newsstands and TV, the Internet and the multiplex. Jake Sharpe is one of the biggest recording stars on the planet, and every song he’s famous for is about Kate. For over a decade his soundtrack has chased her- from the gym to the supermarket, from the dentist’s office to the bars. Now thirrty-year old Kate gets the call that Jake has finaaly landed back in their hometown for an MTV special. The moment she has been waiting for-the chance to confront him and reclaim her past- has arrived. But she might just discover that the past she idealized was not as wonderful and romantic as she thought.”

This is a nice story. I am excited to read chapter by chapter and really get to absorbed what is happening. Plus, I caught myself smiling with the love stroy. In this novel, there are two story being described alternately. The story of how their love began from sixth grade and the story of how they pick up the pieces and correct the things that have been lost along the way. I learned that talking and fixing about things really helps. People need not escaped their shortcomings and have time to discussed. And proper break-up really is necessary.
My favorite lines. <3
Expensive huh? But, I bought for 150php only. Good buy!


Thank you for reading!

Bowling

 Stress-free activity No. 1 - BOWLING

I always wanted to try and play bowling but I am afraid of many things. First, I know myself as the non-sporty-chick and the thought of this game gives me chills. I am afraid that the moment I walk near the lanes. I might slipped. Yeah, talk about clumsiness. But, hey, I didn't! Second, I don't have any idea on how to play. How to roll the ball. How to carry it. But, I discovered that it didn't matter. Just get your butt there and people won't care either you hit the pins or not. What matters is that you had fun! 

September 8, 2011:Ate Miko introduced me this game. She and her brother were my first companion in my attempt to roll the bowling ball to the gutter. Haha! and Thanks ate Miko for the treat <3
My first attempt.  There's always a first time :)

We really enjoyed playing. Maybe because we really need this time off. We need to relax and leave the stressors behind. It works. FUN!

Sisters' bonding
See the smile on my face because I really nailed this activity.
I even got my two strikes. COOL!!

September 14, 2011: I had my second bowling experience. This time I was with my Bestfriend Malyn, Ian, Relative, Ate Ghe and Jep. And this time I am not afraid anymore. Actually, I am excited to do this!

Bowling really helps release all the stress and bad vibes most especially if you're with friends. Try it!

Thank you for reading!
