Free Ebooks, Anyone?

Maybe this is your lucky day :) Being a self-confessed bookworm that I am, I really have a passion in reading books. It one of my favorite pastime next to watching the television. And being in my most frugal self, I do not want to spend money on buying books or ebooks. And luckily, I recently have stumbled upon a very generous blog Novels4You which is very kind to give everyone the chance to download their favorite novels for FREE. Yes, it is for FREE!!! So what are you waiting for? Head now to this awesome blog and feed the enormous bookworm monster in you for free :) (See how I am very delightful that these ebooks are for free? HAHAHA :))

My Week in Photos

I've been MIA for several days already (if anyone in this little interwebbz has noticed) because of such a long list of to-do things. But even I am exhausted for forcing myself to get these things accomplished, I am still very happy and thankful for God has given me one of the best blessings I could ever asked for. And that is...tadaaaan! I am now a Registered Nurse!!! :D All those four years of studying, memorizing medical terms, absorbing procedures not only in your brain but in the heart also, zombie-fying nights, eye luggage and acne that's still pestering me until this time, and the three month review class that I have really been serious in attending to, and all the great and not so great moments I have encountered during my college years... I am proud to say that I SURVIVED IT! Whew! That was a long blah-blah of my rants that was kept for a long time, HAHAHA :) But nonetheless, I am very, very, very thankful. All those things, either good or bad has been super worth it. And for me not to bore you anymore with this long sentiments, here is my week (last week) through photos...


 After the Ash Wednesday Mass, I, Jam and Vien (not in the photo) headed went to the university because they have to do something in the office. The university was celebrating its U- Week (yes, University Week) so there's a lot of food booths and other gimmicks. These are some of the reasons why I miss being a student and going to school, hahaha :)

 Pre- Valentine's treat c/o Kuya Bart, a college friend. He also gave another chocolate heart to CJ :) It says " I love Curly". Since I have a curly hair, I think that's the reason why he picked this for me -_-
CJ, Lurese, and kuya Bart during lunch, after the registration of our license. We spent almost 2 1/2 hours on eating and catching up because this is the only time we had seen each other after the board exams. And we did a lot of catching up. HAHAHA :)
The free bears that was given to me and CJ on Valentine's.  Since her boyfriend is not around and I am SINGLE, we spent half of the day shopping together. What a very productive day :)
 Gave Koko a "make-over". Pretty, eh? HAHAHA :)




And a photo of me, trying the "maarte" pose of those models I see. And yes I can see it, I FAILED!!! >.<

So how about you? How's your week?Hope you all did great :)

love, Marielle

Little Things- One Direction

 I'm in love with this song. I'm not being biased here, given the fact that I'm a certified 1Directioner but this song swept me off my feet. Although it can bring me into tears because the song reminds me of my lost love, this song is near perfect to touch your heart with it's sincerity like it was made and meant for you. And actually, it's on constant repeat on my playlist right now. :)


"Your hand fits in mine
Like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind
It was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me"

And above is my most favorite lines, which is [insert super intense kilig here] sang by my baby Zayn. HAHA ;)

Oh Oh Mario!


You all probably know who is this handsome boy up there. Yes, he's Mario Maurer, one of my imaginary boyfriends. HAHA :) We've seen him first in the movie Love of Siam and then melt our hearts with his damn good-looking boyish charm in First Love (A Little Thing Called Love). And because I'm not a selfish [imaginary girlfriend], I am going to share with you guys some of his cute animated  .gifs that I had collected mainly from Tumblr. I do not own any of these .gifs, credits goes the makers of the following .gifs. So ladies and ladies at heart, please take your seat and enjoy! :)

Maroon 5- Sad

Just stumbled upon this song while browsing the Youtube. The title suits the content and tone of this song. If I were brokenhearted tonight, this could possibly make me cry, haha :)


"...And wondering if the one I chose was the right one
Oh, but I'm scared to death
That there may not be another one like this
And I confess that I'm only holding on by a thin thin thread."

My Happy List

  • Random trips to places I've never been to
  • Cold, rainy, dark season... my perfect kind of bed weather
  • Finding that perfect spot in my bed to lie while reading a book
  • A cup of warm coffee or hot chocolate
  • Crazy talks to serious conversation with my favorite people in one sitting
  • Laughing like there's no tomorrow
  • Eating breakfast food for dinner
  • Knowing the correct title of an unfamiliar song
  • The scent of old books
  • Finishing a book which ended the way you imagined it
xx,
Marielle
