Okay okay. Finally I’m doing the two memes tagged to me by Eric and Jaypee ages ago. I’ve been meaning to post my answers but I’ve been quite busy of late, (as always retorts my mother) and since I didn’t posted something yesterday, I thought I’d end the one-day haitus with this post.
First off, will be the ‘Cinco’ tag by Jaypee since it’s easier;
Five items in my freezer:
I checked our freezer after having dinner, in there I found a pack of hotdogs, chicken wings, ice drops for my little brother, another pack of cheesedogs and some pork chops.
Five items in the car:
I don’t personally own a car so I’ll make use of my cousin’s which I’m part owner since I pitched in quite a chunk of my savings when we bought it last year. Anyways, inside is a model of a Ferrari 360 (my dream car), Bob Ong’s “Paboritong Libro ni Hudas”, a rosary, a Sponge Bob air freshener container, and an umbrella.
Five Items in my wallet:
A keychain that looks like Itachi Uchiha, my old 4th yr highschool ID, a drawing by my ex-gf, a hundred-peso bill, some old love letters.
Five Items in my closet:
My knee braces, my malong, an old backpack, my ANBU costume, and my AWM (Arctic Warfare Magnum-model airsoft rifle)
Okeedokie, now on to the tougher books meme by Eric. Now for each item, I had more than 3 answers but I only included the book that first popped in my mind and without me looking at my desk, headboard, and bookshelf where my books are scattered in my room.
One book that changed your life:
Future Shock
One book that made you laugh:
Pugad Baboy 17 – Brosia rules!!!
One book you have read more than once:
Das Kapital
One book you would want on a desert island:
U.S. Army Survival Manual – Eric and I are on the ‘same page.’
One book that made you cry:
Memoirs of a Geisha
One book you wish had been written:
Bonifacio: Siya ba ay kilala ko? by Ed Aurelio Reyes – an excellent companion to Ambeth Ocampo’s “Rizal without the overcoat
One book you wish had never been written:
Alamat ng Gubat by Bob Ong – rubbish, just rubbish. I liked his first three books better.
One book you are currently reading:
Among the three I’m reading right now, I’d choose for this post The Time Traveller’s Wife
One book you have been meaning to read:
The Devil Wears Prada: A Novel
There, now I’m going to tag the following bloggers:
Arvin of Arvin Astig
David Corpuz of Mental Pornography
Rico of Method to my Madness
Mia of Strange Joys
Major of Isulong seoph
Cheers everyone!

basic question: have you understood alamat ng gubat?
i guess there would be enough justification that you hate it if you are to take it literally and not get the full grasp of the idea.
better read it again because it’s going to be worth your time.
@ Mia: Indeed, I’m almost done with half of the book, and it’s really nice, just brilliant. I can’t wait to finish it. My exams just ended yesterday! Woot!
@ adottedfellow: Goodie, more book questions, will come out with a post for that. Thanks!
@ eric: It’s the last day of the book fair tomorrow, I’ll try my best to attend. I have three tickets from IBON.
@ elle: Pugad baboy just rocks! Walang sinabi si Bob Ong, hehehe
@ ipanema: I think I’m the only one who keeps old love letters in my wallet, the others I suppose keep pictures in them instead. Why love letters instead of pictures?
I find keeping pictures in wallets unwise, the sweat, tear and twisting of the wallet only degrades the picture. Sayang naman.
Nice list Jhay! I like what's inside your wallet by the way. How many guys have old love letters in there?
Now i know it's Pugad Baboy that made me laugh. I forgot the title.
gusto ko yung pugad baboy
Wow! Finally!
Impressive list, Jhay. You have titles here I’m jotting down and will look for during the upcoming book fair.
Many thanks for being a wonderful sport
