I may not be a voracious reader but I enjoy reading books especially fiction, non-fiction and inspirational ones. If I had ample time in my hands, I would dedicate a good portion of it on reading. After several book-less months in my life, I chanced upon the Fifty Shades Trilogy by British author E.L. James…

…and easily got hooked. I know it’s quite popular and if I heard it right, it has already surpassed the Harry Potter series as the no. 1 fastest-selling paperback of all time in the UK. I got curious when I researched on it online because the theme was something new to me. I’m still on the first book and yet I’m already excited to finish reading the third. That’s how addicting this trilogy is.
Everyday, there are choices we need to make, choices that are either favorable or unfavorable, meaningful or useless. When we make a choice, we consider different factors, factors that influence the choices we make in one way or another.

To be happy is a choice. It’s something that we can do, something that we are encouraged to be. We can either bear the suffering or end it. We can either move on and face tomorrow or get left behind suffering from the wounds of the past. In the end, it’s all about making a choice, no matter what consequences we are in and no matter what limited choices we are given with.
Last weekend was quite bitin but still fun. We went home Friday night and left for Manila Sunday evening instead of the usual Monday morning. We just slept and ate and cuddled and the cycle just repeated itself. On Sunday afternoon, we attended the house blessing of our friend at a high-rise condominium in Makati.
These days, investing in real estate is popular whether it’s a town house, a single-detached house and lot or a condominium unit. That friend of ours, who works as an engineer in Japan, plans to have his two-unit condo rented to augment his monthly mortgage payment. Good idea, isn’t it?
Since I got my previous Nokia E63 phone sometime in 2008, I’ve been keeping a list of movies that I would like to watch when I get to have some free time. Over the years, however, “free time” has been quite elusive to me and priorities got in the way. I got my hands full with stuff that required my immediate attention. Thus, my movies-to-watch list has been continuously growing ever since.
If you’re curious enough, here are some of the movies included in my list (just don’t ask WHY because I have my reasons, mostly personal, for wanting to watch them):
Tonight is gonna be a great night. The hit Broadway musical Rock of Ages which was brought to Manila by Atlantis Productions and stars our very own MiG Ayesa along with some local artists will be having its preview show tonight at the Carlos P. Romulo Theater, RCBC Plaza in Makati. We were lucky to be given tickets to the show and we couldn’t be more thankful to our benefactor!
Today’s mood: Excited. 🙂
