Reading List: Getting In Touch With My Inner Teenager

September 22, 2010 at 12:06 pm | Filed under lists, tv, movies, books, music etc

I may or may not do 100 Books in 1 Year… and if I do decide to do it, I’m afraid I will have to stick to light, easy reading because I cannot afford to dedicate an entire week to one book an existential crisis at my age (the last thing I need is a life-defining moment brought upon by reading fiction that will encourage new bad habits… like a testosterone supplement addiction). Anyway, here’s my initial list (provided I find all the ebooks!):

1) Paper Towns, John Green
2) Will Grayson, Will Grayson, John Green
3) 13 Little Blue Envelopes, Maureen Johnson
4) The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Stephen Chbosky
5) Percy Jackson and the Olympians (series, 5 books), Rick Riordan
6) The Mortal Instruments (series, 3 books), Cassandra Clare*
7) Prep, Curtis Sittenfeld
8) Sloppy Firsts (and the succeeding four books), Megan McCafferty
9) Stargirl, Jerry Spinelli
10) Love, Stargirl, Jerry Spinelli

Total: 16 books.

*Carina calls Clare the devil because she is a shady shady person, but I still wanna give this a shot.

Things I Love, 7.

July 27, 2010 at 5:14 pm | Filed under lists, outfits, photos, skin care, things I love

I haven’t done a list of things I love in a while and I guess it’s a good thing I discovered something new today that I absolutely loved or else I would have forgotten about this little blog category of mine.

Ok, so it’s not really a new discovery since I got it at the supermarket a couple of weekends ago and I just kept forgetting that it was sitting in my *fridge: Tipco Broccoli/Vegetable juice!

It’s delicious, I tell you! It’s a mix of broccoli, kiwi, tomato, pineapple, and a few other things I don’t remember so it doesn’t taste like broccoli (which is pretty yummy to begin with, anyway) at all.

A Quick List of Things I Want

July 7, 2010 at 9:11 pm | Filed under lists

1) Clear skin. Like, beautiful, flawless, radiant clear skin. My skin is depressing.
2) Predators! Well, I don’t want Predators; rather, I want to watch Predators. It opens tomorrow and some friends and I are going to see it this weekend. I am excited!
3) A flat/ter tummy. I miss the days when I didn’t have to worry about keeping my midsection in shape =/
4) Cold/er weather. It’s July in the tropics but it still feels like summer.
5) White tights/white fishnets.
6) A bottle of nuphedragen hehe.
7) Better body image. I’m a bit worried, though, that once I’m fully-comfortable in my own skin, I’d let myself go and get fat. Am I crazy for feeling/thinking this?
8) More pretty dresses!
9) More shoes!

I can’t shop ’til end of July/August, though. I haven’t even paid my credit card bill (it was due, uh, early this month) because my money sent from Xoom won’t be here ’til the 9th. SIX DAYS (it was sent on the 3rd)! Imagine that.
