big fan of Ms. de la Cruz books

ok i got to admit, im a HUGE fan of Ms. MELISSA DE LA CRUZ books.. preferably her BLUE BLOOD NOVELS and her upcoming new books, WITCHES OF EAST END and WOLF PACT, looking forward to that...I mean i love reading fiction especially those involve magical and supernatural stuffs. so maybe that explain how i really love her books..

Since Im talking all about her, i would like to share some infos about how brilliant her works is and how awesome she is. To start off Im proud to say that she's a Filipina, I remember reading her life story featured in one magazine here. How she started to read and love books and her fave bookstore is the bookstore i really love now and forever, the National Bookstore. Aww.. really love her, I hope someday i could meet her--attend to her book tours... *cross fingers*

Oh, did i mention she tweeted to me... that's the best part, she sometimes tweeted back to her fans... i remember last year she said "hello" and the next tweet she said "hello Manila" (even im not from Manila) it feels good that she still love and acknowledge being a Filipina.

For now im looking forward for her upcoming books... really.. i just read the synopsis, and i was like.. cant wait to grab a copy of it.

WITCHES OF EAST END by Melissa de la Cruz 
her 1st Adult Paranormal Series
Release: June 21, 2011 


 Synopsis (Product Description):

It’s the beginning of summer in North Hampton, and beautiful Freya Beauchamp is celebrating her engagement to wealthy Bran Gardiner, the heir to Fair Haven and Gardiners Island. But Freya is drawn to Bran’s gorgeous but unreliable brother Liam, and sparks fly when the two decide to play a dangerous game of desire, following an ancient story of love, betrayal and tragedy that harks back to the days of Valhalla.

Witches of East End follows the Beauchamp family—the formidable matriarch Joanna and her daughters Freya and Ingrid. Freya, a sexy bartender, has a potion to cure every kind of heartache, while Ingrid, the local librarian, solves complicated domestic problems with her ability to tie magical knots. Joanna is the witch to see when modern medicine has no more answers; her powers can wake the dead. Everything seems to be going smoothly until a young girl, Molly Lancaster, goes missing after taking one of Freya’s irresistible cocktails. As more of the town’s residents begin disappearing, everyone seems to have the same suspects in mind: the Beauchamp women.

Fraught with love affairs and witchcraft, Witches of East End…

Swifty fandomation!

Ok last time a blog about how my craziness for the Jonas Brothers, now i want to dedicate this blog to my very own favorite girl, TAYLOR SWIFT! wohoo..*cheer*

Alright to start off, i started liking Tayswift when i first heard her song "Teardrops in my Guitar" in the local radio station, and i was like who's the girl who's got an amazing voice and when the dj did announced her name i was like, "i like her"... I need to download her songs or buy an album. So one day i was just roaming in the downtown i saw a "p"cd, that time Tayswift is not that famous "yet", so no signs of her original cd at music stores. So i did bought it and listen to it almost every night. When I knew that she did wrote all of the songs in her cd, i was really amazed and like her more.

Now,Im a Tswift fan. I REALLY love her music, all the lyrics are well written...When I feel bad or having a "not so good" day or feeling i just listen to her songs. They are all the best! I cant choose one... maybe i can choose my Top though.

Here's my top  for each album:

for her Self Titled, Taylor Swift album: 

"Picture to Burn" (i really love playing this on my guitar)  
"Teardrops on My Guitar" (so sad song)
 "A Place in This World"  (love this)
"Stay Beautiful" 
"Our Song" (upbeat,like it)


for the FEARLESS album:
(i definitely love all her songs here, hard to choose but i will try) 
"Fearless"  
"Fifteen"  
"Love Story" 
 "Hey Stephen"   
"White Horse"
"You Belong with Me" 
"The Way I Loved You"  
"Forever & Always"  
(ok, i chose 8...really i love this 8 songs) 

and for SPEAK NOW album
"Mine"  
"Sparks Fly"   
"Back to December" 
  "Speak Now"  
"Mean" 
 "The Story of Us" 
"Never Grow Up" 
  "Enchanted" 
  "Better Than Revenge" 
  "Long Live"  

All i gotta to say is just LISTEN to them...the songs are so awesome.

Oh, btw TaySwift already had her concert here recently in our country, last February 19, 2011 but unfortunately i wasn't able to attend coz of some important matter and  the budget i cant afford since i need to prepare for the plane tix and the concert tix, dont have enough money for it. But for sure there is next time i hope, eventhough i haven't got to her concert Im still a very proud fan. she did greet her fans in Filipino which is totally cool, like "Magandang Gabi Manila" "Mahal ko kayo", "Kumustas kayo", "Salamat", hearing those words from her it feels great.

here's a video from her Asian tour:

and here's an audio of Tswift saying Tagalog words: EPIC!

Tswift,we LOVE you forever...
Keep on writing and keep falling inlove so that we can have an amazing songs after your break up,(joke only).
even LOVE from "guys" doesnt work on you, I think the LOVE of the FANS will always remain forever! 

Keep on Sparkling and Keep on Rocking~
we love you!

oh before ending this blog i want to post some pics of mine supporting TSwift.
pictures are taken previous years, so enjoy~

another batch of orders!

Ok i have to admit, im crazy with Girls' Generation. They are like one of the best Kpop group to me (super bias).
Last year and this year i ordered a lot of things online. I  found out a FB account selling KPOP stuffs who is residing in my city, actually not in my city "near my city" so i was too happy to know about it. I started ordering, and Im really happy to say that everytime i ordered, there's a lot of surprises and freebies with it. so happy!

Recently i just got my orders, the Phuket Photobook, ITNW 1st Asia Tour (2disc cds plus with 2 posters,ITNW and SPAO), and the 2011 SNSD Wall Calendar...i feel like,WHOAH! the feeling that you're in Cloud9... LOL~

I feel really thankful to that shop since they are selling "affordable prices" that is suited to teenagers/students like me. I mean, she really do understand us, our fandom and craziness. I already met her actually, and she is nice. Thank you ate Pau, till next time again! So now i keep on going back to that shop to check some new stuffs of SNSD. Sometimes i can request like old cds and other stuffs, she will just reply she will see what she can do for it...

Oh well i guess i want to brag some stuffs i got from the shop.. LOL.
its just im too HAPPY! enjoy~

last day~

Earlier it was my last day of Korean class. I mean it has been a month attending the class and i did love learning new things each class and i really do appreciate the time given to us since its only a free class... Oh i did mention the word "class" many times in 1 sentence. Keke^^

So on our last day it was all saying goodbyes and stuffs... My teacher and I took a lot of pics both in the language center and in the mall. I had a great time with her earlier. Actually i did prepare something for her, a simple present... Let just say its my usual stuffs given to a friend.....Letters. I did prepare a lot of letters... i just love writing, so yeah...lots of it. and also i did prepare a simple picture collage (which she totally love it). I mean its simple but i really work hard on it! And then i included some of my playlist. I prepared a 2cds, almost all my faves english songs and some korean songs. I want her to listen to some of it. ahhh, what else.... oh, i did bought her some Filipino delicacies too like Pinasugbo, Baqueron, and Bandi, all sweets.. and all of it are my faves... And before we went to the mall i let her eat Suman (sweet sticky rice), she mention they got similar taste in Korea.

We went to the mall to have dinner at Shakeys, and met my friend Jesa. The foods are delicious as always.. i really like the shakes. I ordered chocolate.. yumyum...After dinner i suggested to go to the arcade, to play...im too childish right? oh well.. We ride on bump cars, play some arcade games.... super fun!

Before I finally said my goodbye to her, i stop myself from crying. I just hug her and told her i will miss her...Surely i will miss her, she's one of the best Korean teacher/friend i ever met.... Hope to see you soon Jennifer!!!!Till next time.. Take care of yourself and God Bless... (oh, i want to cry now).... huhuhuhu~
