Reading Hiatus

I've been trying to make both ends meet in my job. I didn't know how toxic it is to be in the corporate world. Now, I want to turn back time but, it's impossible, right? I have to face the present. We all have to.

So, I'm always busy with everything. Doing websites, paper works, pictorials, writings, editing and etc. Recently in this blog, I've mentioned that I have become a bookworm. Why? Because when I started reading a book seriously, it has flew me away in the dreamland and I was amazed by the feeling and how awesome is my imagination. I've fell in love with the different characters in books that I have read.

I can't remember what was the book I read that made me become a bookworm but, one thing I'm sure. It's helluva awesome!!!

Confidence: How To Succeed at Being Yourself by Dr. Alan Loy McGinnis



According to this book of Dr. Alan Loy McGinnis, some people are magnets for success. They know how to "catch on the wing." Their only secret is confidence; certainty about their personal worth.

"Can you gain more self-confidence? Can you change? "Yes," says Dr. McGinnis. "You can gain a healthy self-confidence."

I am very much aware that I have a very low self-esteem. Oh! Erase that... One of the things Dr. McGinnis mentioned in this book is to never look down yourself and never ever think that you have such problem in yourself. 

Dr. McGinnis also illustrated in this book to let go of the unwanted memories of the past and to forget and forgive. Some of us have issues with our parents right? Dr. McGinnis also said to forgive our parents and just look at the bright side. We may have commit something wrong or argue with our parents, they will just hope for our own sake, ALWAYS! We should love our parents a thousand times than they love us. Yes, they get annoying sometimes, but always remember that we are much more annoying than them but they never gave up on us. It is a big factor in gaining self-confidence.

#SittieCatesBookContest: Why I Love to Read Books?

Hi everyone!

Ahhh. It has been a while since my last post here. Anyway, I am joining a giveaway that one of my online friend/sister is having.

I'm not really into books before because, I find it so boring. Little did I know that I will be reading and collecting them today.

Last September last year, I have been downloading and reading e-books but, I stopped it by mid of October because I don't feel reading e-books anymore. By November last year, I was asking few of my friends what are good books to read and Sittie Cates told me self-help books are good. So, I looked online and find a lot of interesting self-help books but still, I end up ordering three books; I Heart You, You Haunt Me by Lisa Schroeder, Roundabout by Rhiannon Lassiter and Prom by Laurie Halse Anderson.

Day 23 - A Picture Of Your Favorite Book

I have purchase few e-books last year but I have only read 2 of them. I'm too lazy to read them. You know, there's something about the printed books that e-books doesn't have. That's then I realize I will never ever purchase e-books again and I also promise to myself I will always read printed books. The smell of printed books is really different, its like calling you to read them.

PROM
 So, as of this moment, my most favorite book is PROM. The story is about a girl who isn't interested on attending prom and would rather go out with her boyfriend. But, that changed when her best friend Natalia; the president of the Prom committee in their school accidentally injured her leg because of wearing heels (as a practice for the big night) and assigned her as the temporary Prom committee president.

 Its a pretty exciting story. It makes me smile somehow! In my high school days, I wasn't able to attend our JS Prom because of some family problems and because of this book, I feel like I've joined their prom. From the preparations, excitement, dismay, madness and the happiness in the big night, I feel like I was there joining them. That's cool, isn't it?

I will try to write a review about this book as soon as I can. I've been too lazy to write any reviews nowadays. I am not motivated and dedicated enough to write any reviews. comments
