    LOL .. doing much better. I think I did my last book in about 2 to 3 weeks. Up from a couple of months per book, ;). I still have a whole slew of textbooks (technical) I need to pore through, but at least I'm reading more novels. Now I'm actually stuck with no fictional works to read. Have to visit Chapters tomorrow, :-p.

    Miss you much, Ling'r. Wish I could spend a lazy afternoon just reading with you.

    Hi. The Flips Flipping Pages has another book discussion coming up. Hope you can attend. thanks!

    Finoy Foodies - June Book Discussion

    Because we love food second to books (order of importance may change depending on time of day), the Flippers will tackle a culinary theme this June. To narrow down the countless choices of books, we zoom in on Filipino food.

    See you all
    on June 20, 2009. Saturday. 2PM
    at Katre Mediterranean Restaurant, 103 Dr. Lascano St. Brgy. Laging Handa, Quezon City

    a, ok. di ako nagpunta, andami pa kasing nakapilang libro sa 'kin. meron akong bookstore na palaging pinupuntahan ngayon, buy-the-book, dati kasi andaming hardbound books na P99 lang, tapos marami ring hard-to-find books. kaso nagtaas na rin sila ng price ngayon, pero worth pa ring puntahan dahil kung anu-ano ang laman, hehe.
