Dilly Daddle II

As to I'm nearly finished with the HP Series (Horayyy!!) I thought of what should I blog about, with Harry Potter rounding up my dreams I couldn't resist. I mean, is it normal for a reader to dream about what he/she reads? I've been muttering "Dumbledore" in my sleep and I have no regrets at all. I have also discovered when I awoke from my nap I opened Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince as if I'm reading it while I'm sleeping. I'm in awe. Anywhoo, here's part two of my dilly daddleness and what-not.



I have a thing for chick flick boosters. I'm really in shock, didn't know I had it in me. HAHAHA. I read this book when I was 11 years old and I'm on my first year of high school (yes, I'm very young). Some might know this because of the movie itself. I for one, didn't had the opportunity to watch it. -__- Been carrying this around the school and reading it as if I had no classes at all. After I've finished with the book, I swore to myself I'd buy more of Kinsella's work.



I've first saw the title when I was rummaging through movies on the web and the title caught me. (would it not?). As to my vocabulary is weak, I had no idea what on earth was a wallflower until I've searched it on the web and found there was a book about it. Wasting no time, I downloaded a copy of it on iBooks and read it. I've also watched the movie and I was dazzled when Logan Lerman and Emma Watson were the casts and the stars!! Heaven!! (~*3*)~ I've just read it recently and remembered I have shared the summary with my classmates. I loved the story a whole lot.



This was on display when I was in a visit to the National Book Store in General Santos City, and I was pretty much attracted by the pages with the pictures and whole lot. Once I've read the book, I've realized me and Emily has so much in common! She wears black clothes, I know all of my clothes are all black and she adores cats, which I do too. Hoho, what reading does to me. I remember reading this when I was 12 and it was summer time. Book was great so were the pages. Literally. Oh and it's a series novel, and I'm not contented with Emily only having lost her memory. I crave for more.



I've bought this book in a store at Robinsons Mall, General Santos City. I forgot the name of the said store. Remind me again to take down notes as to where I'm buying goodies. Well, this books makes me imagine what would it be like if I had a twin and we've got separated. That wouldn't be too pretty. I've read this book when I was 13 or so. Also, this is a series, composed of The First Escape, The Secret of the Indigo Moon, and The Great Mogul Diamond. Rumors though that there is a book for coming forth. After I've finished reading the First Escape, I went back again to the store to find the second book but it wasn't there yet. They were out of stock. Unlucky me. 3:

This post is rather wordy, isn't it?

Crumbling like Pastries

A month has passed since my nephew turned 1. I was expecting something explicit indeed and eye-catching. Of course, my expectations were achieved. As his mom is now a party organizer I couldn't complain about the pastel colors that are put up each celebration my nephew has (btw, his name is Mosi). What caught my attention the most were those pastries. The bakers really knows how to bake (lol what?) They were very artistic and I bet they can make anything edible. (I hope they can make a Sirius Black cake) They are located in General Santos City, BUT I forgot to ask my sister-in-law WHERE in Gensan. *sighs Nevermind, I'll just ask her soon when the time comes (dun dun duuuunnnnnnnn).






I thought the ears on those pastries were edible. But every "I thought" is wrong. -__-








This hasn't failed me though, everything is edible. Even that huge crown.

That bakeshop is surely generous of their icing. Their cakes were really good. Try it sometime! :)

After the final exams, my sister's boyfriend came to visit her (We're kinda close though). So, both of 'em decided to go on a road trip and because I was gloomy, I decided to come too. I got psyched, because we were going to the Zipline in Lake Sebu. ._. I've always wanted to experience what it feels like to be dangling/gliding 600 feet above the ground. My screams got stuck up upon the way because it's 700 meters long. But, the view was ecstatic. It makes me forget how cruddy I've answered my tests. not to mention we've got a discount because our so called "relative" kinda owns a lot there. Lucky us! Woohoo! The exhausting part about that trip was that we had to climb 774 steps before we can reach the area. I hated that part most. Meh, it was fun all through out. Bm was screaming and crying "I want to go down now!" once we've positioned ourselves (and he is much, MUCH older than I am).

Here's some of the action:

Home of our ancestors

Me and my sister
Me and Bm
We survived!
I dare you to try also, and face those Seven Hundred Seventy Four steps!!

Since it's summer, the seeker is back again to her daily habit. You know, reading books, locking herself in her room just so she could concentrate reading and what-not. So, I've decided to share and maybe persuade (or force) you to read books. I mean, it is enchanting to be buried in books :3


(c) Google
I've been collecting books since I was in Grade 4, got persuaded by my friend Althea. And Luanne Rice's "Firefly Beach" was the first novel I've ever read. Forced my mom to buy me more books authored by Rice. But since I am a clumsy git, I must have misplaced them. Nonetheless, the book collecting did not stop. Now, I'm Fifteen and my books are crowding up my room (no bragging).

No more dilly daddle, here's some of 'em:


Ellen Schreiber (I've got Cryptic Cravings on iBooks)

Christopher PikeI have a thing for vampire related fiction. Merherher.

Christopher Pike

Story of a girl who died. wonders why, finds out why. (Short Summary lol)


'Nuff said. I'll brag more about 'em sooner than later though. After I've finished reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.


Adios Muchachos.

Champions


High school days have past and we've all got mixed emotions. Happy because we've surpassed the challenges for four years. Sad, well because we won't see each other every minute of the day no more and I'm very sad because I have to socialize again. T_T I'm terrible when it comes to socializing. I do hope I find some new friends (and probably REAL ones now) once I step into the gates of College.

These were the only pictures I found that are useful to post. I forgot to bring my camera during the Graduation Rights (FML) Nonetheless, If I've survived High School, I'm positive I'll survive College.
