Who's That Girl ?..


I haven’t read a book again for some time now. The last book I read was the Vampire Academy series.

My next book project to read :

Who’s that Girl ?.. – Alexandra Potter
I haven’t started reading it yet. Maybe, after the holidays.

So for now, here’s the short excerpt from the book ..

“ If only you knew then what you know now ...

Imagine if you could go back ten years and meet your younger self – would you recognise her ? What advice would you give ?

* Wear sunscreen
* Back away from those PVC trousers
* Don’t give that idiot your phone number
* Lemon juice won't bleach your hair - it just attracts wasps
* He’s the One – don’t let him get away

For Charlotte Merryweather, there’s no need to imagine. She’s about to find out for real. With some surprising consequences ...

Alexandra Potter’s deliciously enchanting romantic comedy looks at life, love and what might happen if you could turn back time.”

~~

This sounds interesting to me, the first time I saw this book I knew then that I really want to read this. The story of it was something close to reality when you’re in the point of your life thinking about “what if’s .. if only ..” but you can’t do anything about it.

I was once asked by someone if given a chance to turn back time, would I turn back to change, undo or improve what happened from the past ?.. I don’t know.. but come to think of it .. what if we could and meet our younger self ?.. What will we do ?..

it's a girly thing!.. :D

When I was still working in Let's Face It, I remember I usually have my weekly manicure and pedicure for free. It's because, the training center for the salon's attendants is just located in the 2nd floor of the office. Manicure and pedicure are just one of the few benefits of pampering yourself for free as an employee there. Nowadays, I usually had my pedicure done once or twice a month in a parlor nearby our home, this time I have to pay for it. But, I don't usually have my hands to be manicured, I just don't think it's practical because the nail polish on my hands gets damaged easily. So, what I did is just have my nails in my hands manicured all by myself, that way I won't have to pay over and over again if ever I needed a nail polish retouch.Yes, I can do it. :) Today, my nails are colored by pink lilac nail polish. So love it !.. :D I am not comfortable and confident enough about having a nail polish in my hands before especially those ...

lessons learned..

- not all we want is worth the risk - sometimes, we need to push ourselves too much to realize our limits - never let someone hurt you twice, if he had done it once, it's bound to happen again.. Once is enough to learn.. - giving someone a second chance is exposing yourself to be hurt again because no matter what he do to you you'll just accept him over and over again.. - it's not wrong to love yourself more - there's no such thing as give and take in a relationship, it's more on give, give and give..until your heart voluntarily quits. - it's true that a bastard is always a bastard! - reality is, it's not always like a fairytale. sometimes, it's just an illusion created for you to believe that there is a happy ending. - don't refuse to see the signs when it's already showing you that everything is going on the wrong direction - and most of all, somebody may leave you but true friends never will..

if not me, then who would be?..

An excerpt from the book Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen: Halley and Scarlett have been best friends ever since they met. Halley has always been the quiet one; Scarlett braver and more outgoing. Halley has always turned to Scarlett when things get rough, and Scarlett has always known just what to do. It’s the perfect set up. But everything changes at the beginning of their junior year. Scarlett’s boyfriend is killed in a motorcycle accident; then she finds out that she is carrying his baby. For the first time ever, Scarlett really needs Halley. Now Halley has to how to be strong for Scarlett. It won’t be easy, but Halley knows that she can’t let Scarlett down. Because a true friend is a promise you keep forever. ~~ This is definitely not a book review. I think I’m not good at it. I just realized while reading and after finishing it, that I can relate to the character of Halley. I remember when I was a kid, I don’t have a best friend to be called. There’s no kid in my h...
