The Opposite of Me: Insight

Since I'm engaging myself to books now, I've just decided to share about something I feel with this book I just read recently.

The Opposite of Me by Sarah Pekkanen (My first ever owned book)
It is a kind of chick lit, family-oriented type of novel. First, I thought it's gonna be boring but as I  turn every page, it feels like, I need to read every part because I'll miss out something if I didn't, the feeling of excitement as you read chapter by chapter just gets into a reader's nerve.

The narrator is Lindsey Rose, a workaholic, smarty 29-year old woman. She has a twin sister, a fraternal one. Lindsey feels so much different and detached from her twin, Alex. At one point, they fell in love with the same guy. (This is pretty spoiling but the way they cope with it could probably be the surprise.)
On the latter part, something happened that changed Lindsey.

A great book for woman, for sisterhood, for family, for relationship, for making a choice. I felt Lindsey's situation as the book introduced her: a woman with an occasional sleep, always focusing on work and everything else. She impressed me during the intro. And as the story goes.... reaching the end, she impressed me more. Sacrificial love would always be the best, and that is what she exactly did.

The story put me to the exact condition of what's happening. I felt a bit emotional at some parts. I knew the ending would be like how it actually ended in the story (to an extent).
As I've said before, people will bestow their sympathy to Alex but for me, Lindsey still deserves everything. The only thing that hindered this idea perhaps is the absolute kindheartedness of Lindsey. But all in all, I'm pretty satisfied with the ending.

It will be an hour before my class. Anyway, I'll just run quickly to share this story that just happened.

Hatred comes randomly. Guilt, pressure, I don't know. Who cares with what I feel? That one person who I've leaned on the most? No. Absolutely, not.
It's just one favour. Besides, it's not too much to ask! It's for my, OUR own good! I always speak about this issue but end up getting nothing. This is not a big case to solve for me, but then, that person is the only one who can solve it.

I know everything sounds vague but I don't want to explicitly share (I'm sorry). This problem is too shallow but look! Here am I, blogging about it.

There are things that I should cherish. Everything feels incomplete though. FINAL WORDS.

(Sorry for the bad grammar and all other sorts of mistake)

Sunday, 11^th of December 2:10 PM

Ceejay has nothing to do.

Since #OnMyWishlist hash tag (on twitter) trend much in my reality than tweeting, I decided to blog about what’s #OnMyWishlist and what makes me happy.

First and for most, a good life, a happy family. There are no other things I can wish if these continuously happen. – Somewhat the same as my tweet.

Just to start.

I know several people in this world bids so much for gadgets and such material things. Well, I am too but I guess what I would love to have for my Christmas and my entire life is a good life and a happy family. Now, I am very grateful to have that and very hopeful as well to still have it until the end.

As I’ve said, I am a person who wishes so much for material things too.

A NEW PHONE

Mobile phone (aside from my laptop) is a very attached material to me.

My NOKIA C3-00 has been with me since last year and I should say, I am very pleased with its everyday performance. But then again, I’d love to have something new if in case there’s a chance. (Long term for “If ever may pera ako.”)

If there’s a chance, I want a BlackBerry phone. I want an Apple brand as well but I think Blackberry suits my standards for phone as much as iPhone.

PS: Benedict Cumberbutch’s phone with his portrayal of Sherlock is Blackberry. That doesn’t count but JS!

DELL ALIENWARE (13-inches)

This is part of my wishlist but I’m pretty satisfied with the one I’m using.

For 2011, I badly want this kind of laptop. But as I read the reviews, it fits for gamers. However, there’s a lot more into it.

Somehow, I feel the regrets of choosing the laptop I have (M. Pro) I realised, a Mac suits for artists and those who are creative and are studying Media. Well, that was my former dream (TO STUDY MEDIA/ TAKE COMMUNICATION ARTS). But then, it is inevitable to change for a person like me. I just discovered my weaknesses and most of it are comprised with what I have to be good at to qualify for an Arts student (writing, creativity). Seemingly, I can work better with DELL.

Going back to the main point of the title, DELL is always a good laptop. There are just things you need to keep an update for it to work well.

Unfortunately (Sorry for contradicting myself, I know this is a wishlist and must have no negative factors but I just want to share this penultimate paragraph), DELL ALIENWARE is even more expensive than a MacBook Pro. Let us say the maximum price of MacBook Pro a person can acquire is Php90K. Comparing with the Alienware, it is approximately Php200K in its maximum price. Apparently, unreachable.

I’ll just wait for the upcoming laptops to be introduced and hope that I already have a job by that time.

MACBOOK ACCESSORIES

MacBook is one of the greatest things I once wrote on my wishlist. And now here it is, elegant, gray and professional.

Firstly, I want the rubber skin (cover, silicone whatever it is called). Of course to add color and protect.

Secondly, all the other accessories out there.
