RAPTURE, The 4th Book of Lauren Kate's FALLEN novels

Welcome back to me, *giggle*. Glad I was able to find time now updating my blog. During lunchtime, I surfed the Internet looking for the 4th book of Lauren Kate's Fallen novels. Indeed "Rapture" is on its way now to be released sometime soon early next year. Oh boy, I feel quite saddened as it means I need to wait months to finally know what's the ending of the story between Luce and Daniel, a fallen angel. Whether they indeed twisted the past lives they have been through, making their love last for a lifetime. Currently, I'm reading the 3rd book now "Passion" and while reading every pages, I can't help myself but to feel excited what are the discoveries of Lucinda Price while traveling back in time through an announcer as her portal, witnessing what happened on her past lives. The story is indeed quite captivating and made me still awake at late hours in the evening just to continue reading and reading. Well anyways, since the 4th book will not be out yet this year, I have browsed amazon.com to see some prospect novels to read after I finish reading "Passion". Luckily, I saw two books and I have added it to my cart already. I mentioned before that I read 'Angel Fire' By L.A Weatherly, now I'll be having "Angel Burn", its sequel. Also, the novel "Starcrossed" by Josephine Angelini also caught my attention. I will try to find one more, then I will place my order in Amazon.com. I am feeling that I need to put now a bigger book shelf for me back home because lately it seemed my interest in reading novels becoming intensely growing for every stories that I read, simply captivates me making me feel very eager to jump from one book to another. I like the ones with sequels because it totally gives me satisfaction as to how the stories will end and how each character play an important role. Oh wish I could have my own novel someday. Just one novel, it's worth a thousand fulfillments already. This idea makes me feel excited.


I miss my home so much and luckily somehow, I couldn't feel so homesick while I do my novel readings as my thoughts and feelings will be diverted to the total scene in the story. August is very fast approaching now. I can't wait to be with my family. I miss them so much. And I am very much excited also to see in person my super duper cute nephew. Yep, thank GOD my sister delivered her first baby safely and both of them in good condition now. Although my sister still on recovering process but so far so good. Thank you lord.

Well, I just keep holding on and hope things will put into place smoothly with GOD's guidance and help. :-)

P.S. Here's one book review of "Starcrossed" which I find helpful and will help me decide wether to buy or not. Starcrossed Book Review, Click Here

So far settled..

Gladly I was able to settle myself to the new flat I'm staying now. From making appointments, room viewing, and transferring my things all just done by myself. Gossh I had even a minor foot injury that time I transfer my things. It made me say "whoaah I don't like to go through this kind of situation again!!" Because there's no one I can depend on but just by myself. I hate to ask help. It feels nice if someone will just freely offer it but I doubt it because busy schedules will always be the hindrance. Oh my, months passing by so quickly and I may not notice it the next day I woke up, I'm there already in my city breathing what I call "home air" again. My mind is filled with lots of plans right now preparing for that day when I finish my contract here and return back to my hometown. Wish I can find new job for me there as soon as I get there. I'm starting to update my resume, update my LinkedIn account, inquire examination schedules, contact friends who might have connections to various companies, and a lot more. Well of course most importantly, start budgeting for my projects. From paying some property, house rennovations, putting up a small business, treating myself and my love ones, saving and many others. Soon it will be August and I'm so excited of something. Let's say fulfilling one of the goals why I work here in SG. Can't wait to finally achieve it. Well it will still take me lots of savings to do for the next months. So it's a "no no" for impulsive buying. *wink* but after that, ipad2 for me *giggle*, well hopefully finger's cross.

I'm just excited..

Move out, Move In

Pheww!! 2 days more to go and then I transfer to a different flat. Of course I need to transfer all my things just by myself. Well Yep!! I should learn to stand on my own. I prefer not to ask somebody to help me because it's dissapointing to receive the "No, I can't help you I'm not available.". So better don't bother asking. It's very overwhelming to feel if someone will just simply offer the help voluntarily. But these days, arrghhh so hard to find that here eh.... Well anyway, no worries for me because I can actually manage. I even managed to find a new room for me without asking the help of anybody and despite of the fact that I'm a stanger here in this country. And that made me a little more proud of myself and all the more after reading a SMS message from my housemate asking my help to find a room for her. Sure no problem with me but it just made me wonder and ask myself, "hey, I'm the foreigner here I should be the one to ask help LOL". But it's ok I will try to help. Everything is just a matter of time management and well planning. I am proud of what I am becoming. *giggle.. What am I? A bear? LOL*

Speaking of being proud, I was sort of relieved yesterday after receiving the official letter of appointment here in my office. I just couldn't believe how fast my position changes. I am so glad despite of just keeping myself quite, management acknowledged my efforts and my outputs. It's my aim to always provide outputs and be efficient always. And I'm glad they recognized that. I was so excited to relay it to my family the progress of my career. They were very happy making me feel how proud they are of what I have achieved so far. It no longer concerns me if others feels intimidated with me. Who cares? Weehhhh! hehehe. What matters is I am happy embracing the thought that all of these, I'm doing with a purpose, for my love ones. Oh boy, I can't wait to go home and be with them.

Thank you GOD for all the blessings...

Miles Distance

Distance won't matter!!! True indeed. I may be miles away from my home but that won't make me exempted resolving some concerns there. Well partly it gives me comfort because I still part of every decisions made there. Today what a headache! I made long distance call just to handle that newly hired nanny. We hired her a few days ago and just today we found out she started getting things from us and claiming it as her own. Dishonesty is the worst thing of all. We dont care if she doesn't know how to cook or clean the house for that can be trained but to steal from us, it's very, very bad thing. We don't have a choice but to fire her effective today. Hayzzz, it's very hard these days to trust instantly. We are learning our lesson now. Shouldn't be in a hurry looking for a replacement or else we will be victims again of such modus. I just hope things will still be manageable there. *Sigh*
