Happy Reading at 2009

After 9 days, allow me to greet you a Happy New Year 2009. Huli man daw at magaling, huli pa rin, hehehe. Last Dec 30, my mom and I had the chance to watch Ang Tanging Ina Nyong Lahat and Dayo, 2 of the 8 (tama ba) MMFF entries. I also finished reading the four (e-)books of the Twilight saga, and I'm planning to buy them as soon as they're available in bookstores. Maganda ang story, and touching specially for me na isang hopeless romantic hehehe. Since the year closed and started with me reading (e-)books, heto ako ngayon, mega download na ng e-books. Mukhang I'll be into reading again this year. I had already finished reading Sophie Kinsella's Remember Me, and it's ok. But I still like her Undomesticated Goddess the best among her works.

I'm proud to say that these readings has enriched my English vocabulary. Kaya may maganda ring nangyari, aside sa nainspire ako hehehe. Some of the English words I encountered are:

chagrin
exuberant
innocuous

and others I forgot hehehe.

I'll be reading the vampire series of Lynsay Sands. Hmmm.. mukhang I'm into vampire reading ah hehehe. Di naman siguro ako magiging vampire nito sa puyat hehehe.

boka-vulary

one of my early morning habits is to listen to 90.7 LoveRadio's Tambalan ng Balasubas at Balahura. aside from the points of views shared, here are two words (or three hehehe) that i learned from the program...

discombobulating - from discombobulate, meaning cause to be confused emotionally

rumble strips - are grooves or rows of raised pavement markers placed perpendicular to the direction of travel to alert inattentive drivers
