Follow Friday and Book Blogger Hop

Hello there! It's been a long time since I participated in Follow Friday and Book Blogger Hop. And what cool is,  I was picked again for the second time in the Blogger Hop. I really like asking you guys and hearing your wonderful answers. So let's get started.

FOLLOW FRIDAY Feature & Follow Friday is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. First you leave your name here and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them hi in their comments. You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win.

Q. It's circle time. Time for us to open up and share. Can you tell us FIVE quirky habits or things about you? We all have them...



1. I always have a mug and a tumbler in my desk. I'm obsess with water 
and coffee. My tumbler holds the water and the mug's the coffee - but today I ran out of coffee. 
2.  Are you familiar with those HUGE size Toblerones? Yes, I can finish one bar in a day. 
3. Even how hot it is, I always keep my windows close at night. Who knew if some zombie may want to kill me?
4. I sleep at midnight and woke up exactly 12:00nn. Mostly
5. I like rainy days - average rain not the thunderous one.



"If you were given the chance to spend one day in a fictional world (from a book), which book would it be from and what would that place be?"

I would like to be in the world of The Hunger Games. You might say, "because it's the hype today" No. I'm the kind of person who loves leadership (Panem) History (North America to Panem) Technology (Capitol) and a lot of things. So I might be happy to walk in their world for a day.

Which Faction Do You Belong? -Shocking-

I recently stumbled upon Veronica Roth's Divergent Facebook page. At first I was like "Okay, what's the purpose of this?" and then, and then, I saw this app that tells you which Faction you belong. Yes, online Aptitude Test. Note: Now on Facebook! I think I should now wear long robes and watch people jump off the train.

I took the test and my result is *drumroll*


Really, I'm Candor? The Honest? At the very first, I can't believe that it will be the result. I'm not like an angel who's always honest (I think there are liar angels?) Seriously, Honestly is not my top on the list virtue. Shocking result isn't it?

The story telling part: I'm actually have two attitude. Sometimes Bad, sometimes Good. There are times I'm bad. I tease people, I LIE, I do what bad people do (No, not killings or massacre. Save that for the movies.) When I'm good, my heart change. I give money to random beggars I came across the street. I help people having trouble with their lives. (I'm a good adviser, said my Social Studies teacher.) I pray.

So go ahead to that page check what Faction do you belong. Also, can you share with me your results? I know we should not - rules - but just the two of us. I hope you're not a Divergent, are you?

Teaser Tuesdays: The Iron King

easer Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB ofShould Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!\


"Let go!" I screamed, jerking my arm free and trying to claw the prince's eyes. "My brother is out there! I have to save him!"

The Iron King by Julie Kagawa

I know most of your already read this wonderful book but me is only starting the series. I think it is good. Happy Reading. What's your teaser?

Getting a bit Organized

In the menu bar at the top of my blog is a button named: Review Archives. It holds a list of books I have and links to my reviews about them. This will make you to easily see my past reviews.

If the title of my book doesn't have a link, it means that I haven't reviewed it. If it has, then just click on it and you will be redirected to my review.

Thank you!

Nightmare!

Since last month, I am writing a Story. Yes, a long Story.

Now the problem is, the Outline - the short bond paper where the storyline is written - is officially LOST. Waahh! The Story is lost! Okay, I'm not panicking, I have another copy. Here it is

The Story
It was shrunk to small size so you won't see the text - evil laugh. No just kidding. The camera actually out of focus when the picture was taken. Note: I'm not a photographer. I shoot even when the lenses are out of focus.

At least, thank God, I have another copy of the timeline/storyline/chapterline or whatever line you want to call it. It's like my world turned upside down when I cannot find that small piece of paper.

You want to know what it is about? I'll give you a hint: HUMAN VS ________ (no, not zombies, not even monster.) Also the setting is Manila, Philippines. That's all I can give.

If you're asking why I am writing, the answer is, I'm just writing what the images meant a few months ago. I was just sitting in front of my computer when images flashes my mind like someone is transferring a huge amount of data to my brain. Then woala, the storyline was created.

That's all for now. A lot more to come. Teehee!
