In Case (and I Thought) You Want To Know

I was tagged by kayni I am: sleepy... hehe I think: I'm losing my edge... maybe my mind too :) I know: that God's love in everyone's heart is the only thing that can make this world right. I have: a dream, to write a bestseller... (a bestseller in my tribe) I wish: I'm home with my lovey... I hate: strange men seatmates on a bus seat who are inconsiderate of your discomfort. I miss: my lovey... I fear: sugar and acne I hear: the neighbor's puppy barking I smell: my laptop overheating I crave: for my husband's inihaw na tulingan, and kilawin na yellowfin I search: for long lost friends (and x-bfs (hehe) in yahoo, reunion.com, altavista, google, etc. every now and then. I wonder: if i will ever be a mom... I regret: losing my patience over trivial things with people that I love I love: reading and translating.... and you! I ache: whenever I miss B :) I am not: taking my health for granted anymore. I believe: that all things work together for...

SO LONG, AUGUST... FAREWELL

Image
It seems to me that August 1st came centuries ago and yet here you are still holding on with five more days to go. Not that I wanted you to end because your end will surely find me wanting--wanting in the things that I should have accomplished many weeks ago. As I look over my shoulder at the days that had passed, it seems that all I did was beat deadlines. But August was an interesting month too, no doubt. The last of my aunts, my best friend in grade school finally got herself a husband and so last weekend we were all fired up preparing for the wedding. The ceremony went well except for the part that my sister and I had to hunt for candles (again...) when we thought all was ready. It was also a nice time catching up with family especially seeing new additions to the clan... an assortment of baby cousins, nephews and nieces that I don't get to see very often. You also brought an evening of relaxing dinner with blogger friends Bill and Wil. (Thanks, you two...) Now, August, you...

Must Read

I just finished reading a book by LeGette Blythe called The Bold Galilean.  It was a biblical epic on the life of our Lord Jesus told from the point of view of the Roman centurion whose sick slave Jesus healed.  It was a novel well-written. All of the elements of a good story are there--the accounts found in the Gospels with a few fictional embellishments here and there to move the story along.  Two weeks ago, I read a bio-documentary of another biblical figure Pontius Pilate written by Dr. Paul Maier.  It is also under the label of historical fiction but at the end of the book, the author had notes on each chapter of all facts, events, and people that truly happened and existed historically that were documented extrabiblically.  Last week, I read  The Flames of Rome by the same author.  As the title implies, it is a novel about the reign of Nero and the persecutions of the Christians during Nero's reign.  The novel depicted a beastl...

Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia (I have a pdf copy, but it's more enjoyable to sit on a chair, with a book, and turn the pages instead of clicking arrows.) 2.  A complete volume of Bodie Thoene's AD Chronicles. 3.  A pink violin for my sister in law 4. Paul Maier's Books for my bestfriend     a.  F lames of Rome     b.  Skeleton in God's Closet     c.  M ore than a Skeleton:  It was One Man Against the World     d.  In the Fullness of Time     e.  Pontius Pilate 5.  A boyfriend for my sis D  and maybe for R and J too... and S also? hehehe 6-7-8-9.  Good health for all the people I love.. 10.
