blog...blog...blog...

I wish that I could have a plenty of time to blog. Just recently, I realized that i'm a blog fanatic. I love surfing and reading informative blogs. Blogs that educates, inspires, and motivates me to write a blog too. I want to blog about my notable activities, my feelings, points of view about what's happening in the world today, reviews that are related to entertainment/literature and so many more to mention.
It could help me also to improve or enhance my English comprehension (the language that I truly love and hate) . I don't care if there are some grammatical errors in my blog post but I will do (not "try") my very best to ameliorate my English proficiency. I can also write a blog in Tagalog but not so often.
In writing a blog about my opinion regarding current events, I could be a tough critic but I will do everything to become tactful as possible. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion as long as you show diplomacy to others.
As you read the first sentence, i'm hoping and praying that God will give me more time to post blogs. Blogs that someday might give inspiration to my readers.

"Once you learn how to die, you'll learn how to live" (a notable quote from the book "Tuesdays with Morrie")

In my own understanding, it means that always think that your time is running out so that you could do better things in life instead of feeling that you've a lot of time but you're wasting it.

Book Review: Para Kay B (o kung paano dinevastate ng pag-ibig ang 4 out of 5 sa atin) by Ricky Lee


Rating : 4 stars

Si Ricky Lee ay kilala sa pagiging scriptwriter ng movies. Ang pinakasikat na ginawa ata niya is yung kay Nora Aunor na "Himala". Pero sinabi niya na mas gusto niya talagang maging novelist kaya naisipan niyang magpahinga muna sa scripwriting at gumawa ng novel. 3 na ang natapos niyang novel pero isa muna ang ini-release niya, at ito na nga iyon.
Puwede na sa akin 'tong novel. Maganda't nakakatuwa. Nakakatuwa kasi parang napapansin ko nowadays kapag nakakapag-basa ako ng Filipino Lit or novels eh parang nauuso na ang pinagsasamang Tagalog at English. Ito na ata ang makabagong panitikan ng ating henerasyon. Nabasa ko ito noon sa mga books ni Bob Ong. At iyon din ang ginawa sa Para kay B. Para sa akin ok lng naman iyon kasi 2 naman talaga ang official languages natin eh....Filipino and English kaya mas maganda na ipagsama na lang.hehehe
About dun sa novel mismo, yung story, marami siyang twists. Kakaiba parang digital film. Para din siyang "Jologs" the movie na mas pinagulo pa. It's a story about love (and it's a lot of issues!!!), pain, fantasy, & mostly reality. Ipinakita sa book na ito ang difference ng love na napapanood sa movies at sa mga libro na nababasa laban sa love sa tunay na buhay. Parang Fantasy versus Reality ang drama.hehehe
Kung babasahin itong librong 'to, kayo'y pwedeng matawa dahil may pagka-comedy ito ngunit masyado ring seryoso. Dark comedy ika nga (parang House M.D.hehe). Medyo namulat ako after kong nabasa ito at napa-isip.

Ano ba ang mas mahalaga?
Pag-ibig na bawal pero masaya ka o
Pag-ibig na tama pero malungkot ka?

o kaya:

The one you love or the one who loves you?

Yun kasi ang tinatalakay sa novel in my own understanding. It's a never ending issues about love. Maybe some people can't relate to this (and that includes me.hehe) but how about the others who are affected in this kind of issues? Anyway, JUST READ THE BOOK AND I RECOMMEND THIS TO ALL MOST ESP. TO THE YUPPIES OUT THERE. :-)
