What we have is now


But sometimes, we just have to be happy with what people can offer us. Even if it's not what we want, at least it's something. You know.

Listening to you through my Pod


Here's a book I read recently. And yes, it was good!

  I really loved it. I first picked it up at random from a book store -Borders- because of its quirky cute cover. I turned it to the back and read the short description of the book that they always have, and it attracted me alot. It's a book about appearances, and how they sometimes can be deceiving. Or most of the time.

  Flipping open the book, on the first page, were a few words -and by this, I mean a whole page (if you're a writer, you should probably know by now that writers can seldom keep their writing short. Meaning me too. And you have to excuse us -and get use to it- for it. Coz we actually enjoy it. Thus being able to write books.)- by Sarah Dessen, the author of it. And that, well, I like that. When the authors reach out to us -that's why I love it when authors dedicate or at least mention their readers in the Acknowledgement page. It's really nice.  *Reason number one why I love Stephenie Meyer. :)

  I'm not sure about you -if you were like my cousin who has read so much till she finds books boring, though she still reads them. I hope- but I love this book. It's a book which I could relate too.
