Rainy season

Feeling homesick today. Most probably because of the rainy season. Dark clouds, lightning and thunder, flash floods... these became a norm for us during  rainy season.
What can we do to erase these bad vives and bring back the spring in our steps?
Letting your imagination run away to far and distant places can become an entertaining distraction. It will lift your mood and put a grin to your face. Other people that can see you will  also start to smile also as you can affect them positively.
Like a boomerang, smiles when you give them automatically returns. The most charming smile are those given from the heart, because it reaches to your eyes and emits a good vive. The eyes are truly a window to your soul.
Another way to put a smile to your face is by looking at your face on a mirror. Don't place that mirror away until such time that you are satisfied in knowing you are presenting a face that can light up a room with your enchanting smile.
Your favorite song can also lift your mood and make you sing or even dance to the tune. Remember that dance beat? Play it out loud.
Regardless of what mood your in if you're truly interested to change it for the better, then you will be successful. Its all in your mindset.

Free reading materials

I have been an avid reader of novels since high school. I have rented, borrowed and bought books or ebooks for the sheer pleasure in reading.
Lately I have discovered free ebooks in the internet. For someone who loves to read, I felt happy knowing I would have a variety of materials to choose from and its all for free!
One website that I am thankful is Amazon. This site is so amazing! I thought at first that everything here has a price attached to it. Imagine my surprise when I sorted these books from low to high cost and voila! The price for some of the ebooks are free.
I am now enjoying my free stories via Kindle. Download this free app to your PC, laptop or CP and you are all set to use your library.
I was alarmed at first to know I cannot delete my kindle books inside my kindle library but there is a solution. Manage your accounts at your Amazon website and click on the upper right side corner of your kindle ebook. You will then find that your library is free of unwanted epubs that you do not like or ebooks that you already finished reading.
Check out their site and you will find not just books but also a lot of wonderful finds.

Daydreaming

Getting up early in the morning is always a challenge for me. I just feel that I will always need that extra minutes of sleep before going to work. 

But just watch me move if I have a destination to go to, a far away place to travel to. My mind will just kick start and raring to go. Never mind if I do not have anything on my stomach, I can easily prepare myself in ten minutes or less and would just walk like an energizer bunny.

That is why I need the day prior to travel to prepare all my things. Aside from preparing my things, it is second nature for me to fix things inside my room as well. I would like my things to be in place when I get back home.

I have read a daily blog of real or reel life that is full of conversations, like the novels that I have read. And I liked it a lot. Made me appreciate this kind of blog. Whether I want to do it in a short story, a long story- with a picture, without a picture... it will just be there. Free for all to see. Freedom. 

That blog made me realize that I liked the feel of artistic freedom. To write what's in your mind, share any of your thoughts without the fear of an editor slashing everything away just because its not perfect. Later on I may need help doing a more structured way to present, package and publish a very resourceful, knowledgeable blog. But for now, let me dream that I can someday make my own novel.

Prea, Brazil

It just tickles my funny bones when I found out my name is a place in Brazil with breathtaking views.

Lemonade

If drama in your life is giving you lemons, you make a lemonade. 


The ability to adapt for survival is a reflex that we have. Whether its because we have a little or a lot, it really pays off just to live a simple life. Luxury is just a perspective. If you think you are happy, then regardless of any situation- you can cope and live your life to the fullest.

On the other hand,  its flu season once again. The mercurial weather is terrible for my sinuses. I have already bought Vitamin C and paracetamol. And I am daydreaming for a pitcher of cold lemonade. 

And another thing, let me buy those apples. Just to prove the old saying that an apple a day does make the doctor go away.

Movie Review : Kimi Dora and the Temple of Kiyeme

I was surprised that I went to the movie theaters with my co-workers. The surprising element in this scenario is that I usually pick Hollywood movies for the most value of entertainment. The question now is, was it worth it? 

South Korea Cherry Blossoms

The plot was predictable, the humor a given, the acting is good, the surprise guest actors in the movie was a delight.  But what made my day watching the movie was the props, the set, and the location. It was simply amazing. A visual feast. It was a perfect opportunity for those who would want to take a peek at South Korea. The movie inspired me to dream that I can go there myself someday.

Music Playlist

I may be tired and falling asleep on my feet but if I want my senses to be alive and still attentive to the happenings around me, I need my music playlist. You Tube is the choice for all time for music and videos but if you want to download free music you need a site that will give you lots of freebies without the virus. My sister gave me tubidy as she is always downloading songs from mobile and my co worker gave me this site that you can download mp3. A warning though, update your anti-virus scanner before going to those sites just to be safe. My ever dependable anti-virus software is Avast. I get to renew my license for free.



Like a picking flowers, we need to choose our very own favorite songs to soothe our souls and lift our hearts. May your wish come true. xoxoxo
