Hello. I temporarily stopped schooling so I read books and that's all I'm doing. :)
Call me Marg. I love Neil Gaiman and I got addicted to American Gods so I read it twice.
I hope I could make friends here. Let's talk about books. :))

Hello Marg! Welcome!!! You will definitely enjoy here. ;)
Hi everyone! I'm a newbie here. I'm just starting to read books lately. My friend told me about the site for book recommendations. Since most member of this group are filipinos, can I express myself in tagalog most of the time? (nosebleed) lol
Well hullo to you Marifel and let me welcome you the uber-great Filipino Groups! Of course there's nothing completely wrong with using Tagalog here. Bakit pa tayo tatawaging Filipino Group kung walang marunong magsalita ng Tagalog dito.... Ehehehe... Wag ka rin ma-intimidate kahit mali ang grammar mo... Wala namang huhusga sa iyo rito...My warm regards and happy reading!!! ~^^~
Great! Thanks for the warm welcome. Hindi pa ako book addict, but i wanted to read books to add on my knowledge kaso super busy ako sa work. I will appreciate any recommendations.
Sorry Marifel but I'm having reservations regarding recommending books. But I think it wouldn't hurt if you read some of the splendid Young-Adult novels out there. Ahehehe.. :DI'm sure Aaron and Chachic here will have tons of YA recommendation for you. And before you know it your TBR will be piling high.
BTW, I'm the resident horror, sci-fi and classic resident here. If you like something from the genre you know who to approach Marifel...
My warm regards and happy reading... ^_^
i like gods and goddesses, faries, and lots of magic!

Thanks Jzhunagev! I have watched twilight movie last year, then read the book. Its cute! I imagine myself as Bella upon reading. :) I haven't read the other book because of my busy time. *sigh*
Creekk.... creekkkk.... creekkkk.... creekkkk....Ahehehehe... ^_^

Oh its the same expression I saw while you and Ariel were talking about Twilight during the meet up. Haha!
Now I know! its the twilight! My friend gave me the soft copy of the other 3 books. Haven't read it yet.

Can't remember. I think I just remain silent when somebody mentions that during the meetup. I hope I did not roll my eyes cause I never do that. I hope its just a smirk., haha
But it's a sarcastic smirk...Ehehehehe... ^_^
Aaron: i am laughing alone here while all my co-residents are asleep! i'm imagining you, holding a bread knife trying really hard to restrain yourself from cutting any arm who's holding a twilight book!
Whut?!? First I was a personal clown, then now a psycho killer?!?! I guess it proves that I am a Jack of all Trades, Master of Nothing! lol
Better to have lots of hats than to have none at all, Aaron... LOLz!
Aaron + Twilight = **cough cough**

Hey Im not picking on you today..hahaha! Im just giving Ariel a heads up on what could expect to happen this entire day because of his comment.
jamaicaska wrote: "Hey Im not picking on you today..hahaha! ."So you got plans for tomorrow and the next days to come! Plotting for your next blow huh??! lol., I better prepare myself and plan a counter-attack! haha
He's just taking his revenge because I dissed his beloved Finn and Mercedes(and Twilight).! You're no Peter Pan, Ariel. You are one evil Captain Hook!! lol

Hahahaha! where are all these angst coming from Aaron?! You are beginning to sound like Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory.
That's a compliment!! Sheldon Cooper is my favorite, he's the coolest from the gang!!! If I'm Sheldon, you are Sara Gilbert!! That's a spot on since Sara always bullies Sheldon!! hahaha
There you are again! Jam, cute cute mo talaga! Haba ng hair ha..
I’m looking forward to meet you guys specially Jam!, She’s so cool!
Lolz! Hehehehehe. :P You just can't stand that we're (Jam & Me) the one doin the dissin now. Nye nye nye nye nye (teasing). :P
dissin'?! Get a dictionary! What you and Jam are doing is downright bullying!! Ariel wrote: " (Jam & Me) "
Yeah., Its the eternal tandem of pure wickedness!! haha!!
Go laugh and nye nye nye all you can! I'll still be the one to get the last laugh!! Villains never wins!! hahaha., :P

Yesterday there is "Lover's quarrel" and now there's already "Love triangle" hihihi.. Pease Jam *peace sign*
You got a point Jam. Sarah is actually not bullying sheldon., She just always mocks him!! :P
Marifel wrote: "I’m looking forward to meet you guys specially Jam!, She’s so cool!"Im looking forward to meet you too. :D Be at the next meet up ha?! Im easy to recognize coz Im the madaldal girl. Meanwhile, Aaron can easily be identified by just mentioning Twilight or Finn & Mercedes of Glee. Before you knew it, someone attacks you with a bread knife.
Peace Aaron!! :D
Nah., Its not a Love Triangle! I'm not looking for a "mother figure"! hahaha., peace Jam!!

Hey!!! I'm not that violent!! I didn't even give you guys a staring glare when you are talking about that during the meetup. I just did a smirk and now I'm a psycho killer and stuffs!? How unfair this group can be!! lol

Aaron Vincent wrote: "Nah., Its not a Love Triangle! I'm not looking for a "mother figure"! hahaha., peace Jam!!"oh I see! Does that mean you don't like Jam?

I would advise that you wear bulletproof vest, or yeah bring a shield or something to protect you. If you can do martial arts, thats better. Be wary of the things you are saying because he could be omnipresent at all times. Hala...tinakot na kita!
Grabe...I love na natin si Aaron! Hahaha!
hehehe natatawa ko dito mag-isa sa mga posts nyo ;)
Hala., All out antagonism ka na Jam!!! haha.,
