Teaser Tuesday


So, I haven't finished reading any book since I started Kafka on the Shore... Got so busy, I haven't read for a week. To be able to attend to my books, I brought a book to work so I can read on a long bus ride and during break time. I still need to achieve that reading challenge. 

For my Teaser Tuesday...

After watching  Season 5's 16th episode of Gossip Girl, I realized that I am only holding on to the show because of Serena and Blair's friendship (of course the outfits! *wink*) I am a die hard Derena shipper, I love Chair (duh?!) but I have to admit that Dair has connection... still I find it too cliche. (I'm really sorry)

I've watched every GG episode since the pilot and this Season 5, I'm kinda getting tired of the story line. I repeat, after today I don't ship any pairs anymore unless, the writers could give them a better plot. 



Why do I still believe in Blair/Serena? Because the only thing consistent in Gossip Girl is their friendship. They can hate each other but they will always be bestfriends, sisters & family. What they have is far from perfect but they always find their way back to each others arms. 

So GG writers, please don't ruin Blair and Serena's friendship. It will be great if there would be a Blair and Serena vs. Georgina and Ivy battle! haha. with a little bit of fiercer real-Charlotte Rhodes on the side. Hmmm?!
Derena, i don't think you'll not gonna happen anymore (but there's still 5% hope)... So God, please make BLAKE and PENN happen again, I can wait! :)) 

Awkward?

Can this happen again?

Blake and Penn, please?! LOL

Teaser Tuesday


I got this idea from shouldbereading.

"I’ve loved you since we had that first long walk together, and I’ve never stopped loving you. I don’t plan to ever stop loving you if you’ll let me."

Giving love to Sarah Dessen :)

I really don't know how I'd start this entry but I really want to talk about Ms. Dessen's books. I think I've read her books during my down times. haha!

I think that Dessen's books are made for the ladies but it doesn't hurt if guys will read it too. I find her books as quick read and has good vibes.

Photo: from google images

The Truth About Forever
   The first book I've read from Dessen. I fell in love with it instantly. I love Macy Queen because she's the girl who is perceived by the society as always the good girl. She always considers the suggestions of her mom. She spends her free time studying and she kinda feels insecure because her "so called" boyfriend is very smart. One thing that pinches my heart whenever I read Macy's character is she has many pains inside her. She is grieving silently over her father's unexpected death. She also stopped doing the thing she loves doing because of that certain incident. She became herself again when she met a new group of people. This is the perfect read for people who are finding "what will be their forever".
and I love Wes! super!

Just Listen
   Any book that has music  in it, I love it. Two different people joined together by music.
" I want to read it all over again. Especially the part with the sisters. The book also tackles one of the most common problems of girls today, eating disorder. Something that I came to know the effects more as I was reading the book. 

The part when Whitney read the poem in the cafe infront of many people and her sisters? I literally stopped reading and grabbed some Kleenex. Haha! Oh my gooosh! And Owen's love for music! MUSIC! MUSIC! MUSIC! :) I enjoyed reading it 'til dawn. :)"
 

This Lullaby
       Not really my favorite but the friendship in this story really has a place in my heart. It taught me  that we shoul believe in our hearts again despite the heartaches.
 
“I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.” ― Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby
 
Someone Like You
Halley and Scarlett's friendship -- the one I cannot forget in this book. :)

Keeping the Moon
  Colie didn't expect that she will have the best summer ever. and I think I also have a thing for "artist" characters -- Norman! I love his character, very "looks like stubborn" but cares so much.
Inspiring. :) 


"Everything, and everyone, had its purpose. The rest of the  world, too often, might have missed that."


Lock and Key
  It is learning to trust again and FAMILY is FAMILY. Period. Not too heavy read. :)


"What is family? They were the people who claimed you. In good, in bad, in parts or in whole, they were the ones who showed up, who stayed in there, regardless. It wasn't just about blood relations or shared chromosomes, but something wider, bigger. We had many families over time. Our family of origin, the family we created, and the groups you moved through while all of this was happening: friends, lovers, sometimes even strangers. None of them perfect, and we couldn't expect them to be. You can't make any one person your world. The trick was to take what each could give you and build your world from it." 


"It's a lot easier to be lost than found. It's the reason we're always searching and rarely discovered--so many locks not enough keys." 


Along for the ride
   OMG... I think, I forgot this.. Hmmm. *google* 
Ok yeah, The one with the bike... Auden and Eli!! .. okay let's get the words from goodreads, "the hearts of two lonely learning to connect."

"Life is full of screwups. You're supposed to fail sometimes. It's a required part of the human existance." 'nuff said.

That Summer
      Not one of my favorites too. Letting go of the past is your way to be open to your future. :)

What happened to Goodbye
  The latest book of Sarah Dessen but I didn't really enjoyed it. Though, I love Mclean's character. :)

Dreamland
   Of all the books that i read, this one affected me the most. I want to take Caitlyn out of the story and hug her and let her feel that she can tell me what she really feels inside. The book made me realize that *those things really happen.* Ugh! I am really emotional while reading this. (I know you can't understand me but I'm trying very hard not to spoil... haha)


Have you read any of these books? Hope you'd share your thoughts too.

"You Are Beautiful, No Matter What They Say"

"No matter what we do,

No matter what we say,
We're the song inside the tune, full of beautiful mistakes
And everywhere we go, ( And everywhere we go) 
the sun will always shine
( The sun will Always, Always, Shine)
And tomorrow we might awake on the other side



'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes words won't bring us down, no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes words can't bring us down, oh , no
So don't you bring me down today "

The lyrics of the song says it all. 
My friend Taylor Lynn of Perfectly Sensible Nonsense has a project that benefits girls. This is to promote appreciation of one's self. Taylor asked submissions of photos from girls, ladies, women without make up! .. True beauty is much appreciated when we are make up less.

So I hope you'd watch this video. Everyone's beautiful even without make up...

To Taylor, you did an awesome job!

Please spread the video, my dear friends! :)


If you can't watch it here, you can click the link that redirect you to youtube.

Thank You. :)

#3 Inspire: Just spread positivity

Here's my positive words for everybody (photos are not mine *all found in the internet*)

"Don’t let a bad day make you feel like you’ll have a bad life." Okay?

Trust me. This is true :)

For you to be able to move on, you should learn to forgive. Sometimes, it is easier to forgive others but we find it hard to forgive ourselves. *ehem, so me..* For a person to be able to move forward, one should love thy self and to do that, FORGIVE... yourself. 


Happiness. Patience. Forgiveness. :)

Boy meets Boy by David Levithan

This is the story of Paul, a sophomore at a high school like no other: The cheerleaders ride Harleys, the homecoming queen used to be a guy named Daryl (she now prefers Infinite Darlene and is also the star quarterback), and the gay-straight alliance was formed to help the straight kids learn how to dance. 

When Paul meets Noah, he thinks he’s found the one his heart is made for. Until he blows it. The school bookie says the odds are 12-to-1 against him getting Noah back, but Paul’s not giving up without playing his love really loud. His best friend Joni might be drifting away, his other best friend Tony might be dealing with ultra-religious parents, and his ex-boyfriend Kyle might not be going away anytime soon, but sometimes everything needs to fall apart before it can really fit together right.

This is a happy-meaningful romantic comedy about finding love, losing love, and doing what it takes to get love back in a crazy-wonderful world. -goodreads



*Yes guys, spoilers alert* 


I am very overwhelmed because of this book. I loved David Levithan since Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist & Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List but I love him even more because of this.

I realized that Paul's town is a happy land for the LGBT Community. Paul is loved by his family. They know that he is gay but they accepted him eversince. They never tried to put him down. They embraced him wholly. Also, in his school they are free. Everyone can be their selves though there are still kids who are confused with who they really are (sounds like real life right?)

I cannot help but wish that some day when I wake up I am already living in a world where Paul lives. I wish this for all my awesome friends and loved ones. "They don't need to be perfect but they can be their selves." :)

Paul is a strong and happy person. He loves organizing things (reminds me a lot of many of my gay friends.) When they organize something, it is always fabulous and fun. They are very talented like Paul.
Paul is a very good friend to everybody, he listens whenever someone needs to let all their feelings out.

Infinite Darlene. I love her openness to everything. I think she is really the representation for EQUALITY. Darlene is very gay but s/he is also the quarterback. How awesome is that? As in, I can imagine this book turned into a movie. So cute!

Kyle. more people are like him. Confused about who  he is or who will he be in front of the society...

Joni. I love her even if she's kinda stubborn. she's the girl bestfriend of Paul.

Amber. She is really a strong willed girl, love her too.

We have a crazy world but I want to believe that it is a wonderful place too. If we can just learn to respect and accept everybody like the characters in Boy meets Boy. I recommend it to everyone. :)

 "The world loves stupid labels. I wish we got to choose our own."   (David Levithan)


Before I post this entry, I'm so happy to find this! Go Anne!

"I go back to my room for my backpack, then hit the street. I could just leave my stuff in the room, or in the hotel safe, but I feel like carrying it all with me. It's as if it's a part of me already, and I can't let go." p. 69
