hangkyutkyutkyut mo naman Milo, sana ma-convince ko rin mga kapatid ko (Kitty-15, Jedi-11) na magbasa rin ng books at maging avid reader tulad mo. Bagay sa iyo mga young-adult books. But I cannot recommend YA much kasi matanda na si Ate Ella para dun. :D

Zea (AwesomeBooknerd) (awesomebooknerd) | 2 comments Hi guys! I'm Zea (all vowels are pronounced short) and yeah, I pretty much live in the metro. I love reading even though I've only been into it for almost a year. Hindi po ako magaling sa malalim na Filipino kaya po pagpasensyahan na ang pagkaslow. Haha. I have a book channel on YouTube and it'd be awesome if you guys would check that out! http://youtube.com/awesomebooknerd


message 6378: by Eric Magsino (last edited Apr 02, 2012 07:04AM) (new)

Eric Magsino | 6 comments Yo guys! Ako po si Eric. Lumaki po ako sa Jolo, Sulu (iba't iba talaga ang mga reaksyon na nakukuha ko kapag sinasabi ko ito sa kanila ) Yung iba, nagugulat, tinatanong ako kung nakatira ako sa gubat/may kilala akong Abu Sayyaf. Kaya bago kayo magtanong, hindi ang sagot sa mga tanong na iyon. Lumaki ako sa town na parte ng Jolo (mga 100 km siguro mula gubat) kaya hindi ganoon kagulo doon. Pero kahit ganun, atlis nabigyan ako ng (somewhat) normal na childhood.

EDIT: Grabe, anhaba pala ng natype ko.

Di ko talaga maalala kung saan nagsimula ang hilig ko sa pagbabasa. Naaalala ko dati mayroong isang hardcover na libro sa bahay namin na collection ng mga short stories at fairy tales. Dati din, noong nagtatrabaho pa nanay ko sa DepEd, may mga Amerikano na nagdonate ng ilang mga libro doon sa DepEd. Kaso lang dati nagkaroon ng baha, kaya nabasa karamihan ng mga libro na dinonate nila (sayang talaga). Yung ilang mga nabasang libro na pwede pang basahin pinaghatian na lang ng mga nagtatrabaho sa DepEd. Umuwi na lang ang nanay ko ng isang araw noong bata pa ako (mga 2006 siguro) may dalang supot ng mga libro. Basa man, nababasa pa rin. Doon siguro nagsimula ang hilig ko sa pagbabasa. (Ung mga dala niyang libro Gulliver's Travels, Last of the Mohicans, Les Miserables, Uncle Tom's Cabin atbp.) Medyo mahirap basahin kasi di ako sanay sa ingles na ginagamit nila sa libro, pero mabuti nama'y annotated naman at tinulungan din ako ng nanay ko na basahin (eh, wala pa namang internet sa Jolo dati eh, wala namang magawa para maglibang, eh di naman ako masyadong pinapalabas ng bahay). Noong 2010, naghayskul na ako dito sa Zamboanga, sa may RSHS. Nakapasok ako sa PSHS ( awa ng Diyos ) pero sa Zamboanga na lang ako nagaral. Guminhawa na rin ang buhay ng pamilya namin. Sa wakas kinasal na ulit nanay ko (iniwan kasi kami ng tatay ko noong mga 3 pa ako, year 2000) kaya iyon, atlis nagkaroon ng pambili ng libro. Naghanap lang ako ng mga booksale sa ilang mga bookstore dito, iyong mga librong 3 for 100 o 4 for 100. Pero kahti ganun, meron din naman akong nakita na sikat na titles katulad ng mga libro ni Clancy, at ilang mga classics (na ang boring talaga pero walang choice, walang maayos na bookstore dito eh, pero mayroon isang bookstore, bago lang, kaso mahal ang mga libro doon). Yun lang siguro.

Ayban Gabriyel | 379 comments Wow ang daming bago!!! Welcome sa mga newbies! hihi, kaso ang lalayo nyo! :( hehe.. yung Bulacan lang medyo malapit. haha! Sana mag enjoy kayo sa group na 'to!


message 6380: by Maria Ella (new)

Maria Ella (mariaellabetos) | 1353 comments hi Eric, nakakatuwa naman ang katulad mong may passion sa pagbabasa. Yan ang pamanang maituturing ng pamilya mo sa iyo. :)


message 6381: by K.D. (last edited Apr 02, 2012 06:06PM) (new)

K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments Eric: Kung may best newbie intro award, ikaw ang strong contender this year. Atlis, napagisip mo ako hahaha.

Gusto ko ang story mo. Parang gusto kong gamitin sa nobela ko hahahaha. Welcome, welcome!

Bihira na akong mag-welcome dito kasi marami namang gumagawa nya (Ella, Po and Moderator Angus are the most masipag nowadays hahaha). Pero it doesn't mean that I don't read intros and it does not mean that you are all not welcome. Na-antig lang ako ng istorya ni Eric. Hahahaha.


message 6382: by Angus (new)

Angus (angusmiranda) | 4337 comments EXCUSE ME KUYA? Bawat newbie this year ay winewelcome ko, kahit magbackread ka pa. Tulad nito:

Hi Mel, why chunky? I'm reminded of those soft cookies in red plastic wrap.

Hi Diane, buti naman at nagpakilala ka na rin. Kumusta?

Hi Zea, natutuwa ako sa pag-explain mo ng pronunciation ng name mo. I'll check out your book channel later.

Hi Eric, sayang naman at di na natuloy sa PSHS. Di bale, it's not the school that makes the man, harhar. Pero hindi ako masyadong convinced doon. Too ideal. Anyway, thanks for opening up. I hope you enjoy your stay here. :)

Lil (lilethlobe) | 6 comments Hello, all! Been a while since I last opened my goodreads account. Finally graduating from college a week from now! Marami na rin time to read and make friends. How are you, all? :)


message 6388: by Elsbeth L.S.E. (new)

Elsbeth L.S.E. (elsbethlse) | 3 comments Magandang araw sa lahat ng naririto.

Ako si SheBlogger ng www.heblogs-sheblogs.com. Isa itong blog na aking binuo upang ibahagi ang mga bagay-bagay sa ibang tao at siyang ginamit kong account dito sa pagsali sa GoodReads. Kaya iyon na rin ang ginamit kong alyas dito.

Mahilig akong magbasa at magsulat, dahilan kung bakit ako sumali sa GR. Natutuwa akong makita na mayroon palang grupo ng mga Pilipino dito. Dati kasi akong miyembro ng isang informal na bookclub ngunit hindi ko na nadadaluhan sapagkat naging masyadong abala sa trabaho at ako ay napako na sa aking silyang pantrabaho sa bahay mula nang ako ay mag-"work from home". Kaya laking tuwa ko nang madiskubre ang mga grupong maaaring salihan dito sa GoodReads. May book club na ulit ako at hindi ko na kailangan pang umalis ng bahay para makadalo at makipagtalastasan sa mga kasamahan.

Salamat sa nagsimula ng grupo at sana ako ay matanggap ninyong lahat :)

Lil (lilethlobe) | 6 comments wow, im loving this group! Everyone's so nice and warm. Are you guys mostly from manila?

Hi, maria ella! Ha ha yup, medyo nakakatakot yung thought na yun tho! :P


message 6395: by MC (new)

MC (marycris) | 2 comments Hi guys! Im MC, pinaikling Mary Cris.
Hindi naman po required ang mahabang introduction di ba? :P
Mahilig po ako magbasa, pero di lang nakakapagbasa dati kasi walang mabasa. Mahal kasi ng libro tapos tamad pa ko mamili sa mga booksale, kaya ebooks na lang. Tsaka di ako nakukuha sa summary lang minsan kailangan makita ko muna yung reviews at ratings kaya napakalaking tulong sa akin ng GR.

Hilig ko pong mga genre ay YA,dystopia at fantasy.

Gusto ko magbasa kasi nakakapunta ka sa ibang lugar o mundo kahit nasa bahay ka lang at nagiipon ng taba sa katawan.:P
Tsaka umaasa po ako na gumaling sa lingwaheng ingles.
ok..ang haba na... Salamat po! :)
