What am I reading right now......


The combination of the classic Jane Austen and Zombies seemed irresistible to me...haha!Not...maybe Mr. Darcy is....but while I was ready the first chapter of this book I was like "why do I have to read this, again?", and on the second chapter I began skimming...so wish me luck on this cuz I really want to finish this by the weekend and start a new book by next week...:)

XOXO,

Weekend Hauls....

My Shopping Philosophy is "Never buy anything that is not on Sale unless you reallyyyy like it" cuz' I'm the kind of person that if I saw something that I really like & then I didn't buy it, I would have sleepless nights..LOL...I know I'm a psycho... but damn......a lot of stuff are on sale this weekend..so here's what I got......
I have this Huge black leather bag that my mom bought me...that i love....I haven't used it for quiet a while so I thought why not use it this weekend...when we were already in the car I realized that my bags leather was cracked and falling apart :( so I need a new bag right away...we stopped by Ross and got this bag for only $15...although the old one is better cuz' it has a real soft leather but the damage is done....

My Mid-Year Resolution

Yesterday.....while I was checking out my fb account...I just suddenly realized that I've been spending so much time in front of the computer and I was abandoning a lot of things esp my books.....so from now on I'm going to limit my use of computer to 3 hours a day and I think I have to go back on reading my books...which has been pile up since last year cuz' i have been buying without reading it....hehe...these are the books that I'm goin to finish by spring....i hope....I've already arrange it on top of the side drawer....see I haven't even finish Twilight yet...I was suppose to read it before the movie...lol...
and another thing is that lately I've been accumulating a lot of stuff like clothes, shoes, accessories and now beauty products...and the thing is we move to a different city or state every 3 months...so it is really difficult for us to transfer from one place to another...I have come to a realization that I have way too much stuff, that's why from now on I'm going to lessen my shopping..I'll try...I've been buying whatever I want like a maniac maybe due to boredom....and online store are so tempting....so wish me luck guys.....I'm really serious about this...This is going to be a big challenge for me....

Brisingr


Brisingr, the third book in the now four book Inheritance Cycle, was officially named on January 16th, 2007, after months of fan speculation. The book releases on Saturday, September 20th, 2008 at 12:01 AM in the United States.
What We Know
"... a few chapters into Book 3, when Eragon and Roran have attacked Helgrind - where the Ra'zac are - ... Eragon encounters a moral quandary..." "The challenge I faced then was to find an appropriate ending point for the third book - something that was dramatic and satisfying and wrapped up the third book in a good way and lead into the fourth book appropriately - you know, not just a cliffhanger. ... And I realized that since I started Eldest with the death of a major character, Ajihad, that a great way to end the third book would be with the death of another major character..." (Both quotes are from Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle video announcement)
