My reading list

Got these books checked out from the library today. Hmmm.. after reading The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, I learned something about Afghan culture. I've had enough of those for now and I wanted something more along the lines of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code hence Raymond Khoury's The Sanctuary and The Last Templar.

Hmmm... I wonder how long it's gonna take me to finish these books. I finished reading A Thousand Splendid Suns in a day. I hope this is a better read than that one. We'll see...

So true...

“Some day, in years to come, you will be wrestling with the great temptation, or trembling under the great sorrow of your life. But the real struggle is here, now, in these quiet weeks. Now it is being decided whether, in the day of your supreme sorrow or temptation, you shall miserably fail or gloriously conquer. Character cannot be made except by a steady, long continued process.”

- Phillips Brooks

Monster in me

Just trying to clear my head off when I found this original song.. monotonous but you'll eventually find yourself humming it.



LYRICS

VERSE 1
Walking through this forest of Broken Dreams
My Life Is Changing or so it seems.
A Stream of water beneath my feet
An Empty Cabin with a lonely seat

CHORUS
Through the whispers in the night, hiding my face from light, my shadow still there. Through the whispers in the night, can't face the light, the monster in me

VERSE 2
Past the chair, was an open door, a rotting corpse laid on the floor, the works of my hands, before my eyes, the attempts of truth, is choked by lies

BRIDGE
Now that truth is gone, I can't find my way out, Mystery wrapping before me, All that's there is my past

Mga batang Jollibee

My brother sent me these videos today. He knows how much I love kids, mang-inggit daw ba! Palibhasa puro matanda ang kasama ko ngayon!
