"The art of reading is an intimate ritual, that a book is a mirror that offers us only what we already carry inside us, that when we read, we do it with all our heart and mind."

Paprika
My clingy sissy and I were at National Bookstore one time, carefully choosing which ones to prioritize, say one book each, but we ended up buying six! :))) We were hesitant to buy Paprika at first, because it's expensive. Haha! Kakuriputan attack. Buuut the cover and the synopsis were just to interesting to be ignored. Plus, it's the only stock left! or it's the one and only stock they had. Meant for us :p

Oh Singapura!

It was another spontaneous trip, pursued by yours truly because I wanted to travel on my 23rd birthday :p Sadly, due to the randomness, wasn't able to celebrate with the whole family, but still enjoyed the Singapore adventure with Mommy and Tricia Mae <3

The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Thanks to my clingy sissy Tricia Mae who "forced" asked me to buy this book, I was drawn to a beautifully-written piece of Milan Kundera.

Being the Special One Who Matters
"You could still want something that is very unlikely to happen."
- Christopher John Francis Boone (a special child gifted with a great logical brain)
"I just want to do something that matters. Or be something that matters. I just want to matter."
- Colin Singleton (a prodigy who has been in love with same name for 19 times)
