Angelle (Lyrae) | 9 comments Hello I'm Angelle 19 years old from La Union, napapasyal na ako dati dito sa goodreads, nagbabasa ng mga quotes from Mr. Nicholas Sparks' books and Sir Paulo Coelho's.

I love reading books, especially fictions and history. Nanghihiram ako ng books sa mga friends para lang may mabasa at meron minsan pumunta kami sa mall with my friends sabi ko sa kanila punta lang ako sa bookstore sabi nila huwag na kasi alam nilang mahihirapan silang ialis ako dun hehe. And I'm always craving for something new to read, minsan pag walang mabasa binabasa ko na lang ng paulit ulit yung mga books na meron ako hehe.
It feels so nice to be here.
:)

I heard UP Diliman is leasing the lands the one that has the damuhan and heading towards the Iglesia ni Cristo before Tandang Sora. Too bad, I like seeing the damuhan there, kind of like a throwback look you know. "

Oh definitely! :)

Really? I should ask my brother about that. He's still in UP.

Btw, Ken, you're from NY? I spent some time up there also. Mostly UES Manhattan area. :)

Faye (fayegerarldine) | 71 comments Hi She. Welcome to the group! I can relate to the sticking needles part but not to the sticking my fingers to holes. LOL.


message 3779: by Cee (new)

Cee (cee-lakambini) | 12 comments Hi, Everyone. Where to start... I stumbled on one of K.D.'s reviews where he mentioned that there is Filipino group here at Goodreads. That got me excited.

My goodreads name is obviously not my real name but I wanted something Pinoy and exotic sounding (lol), but now that all of you here can understand what it is, it just sounds cheesy. My name does start with a C and I'm Bicol borne and grown, though my parents hail from other provinces.

Between a job, hubs and kids, I try to find time to read and that's why I really appreciate my Nook. I'd like to think I'm open to reading any genre. Well, except horror (patawad po). Nothing against it, I'd just have a hard time sleeping.

It's nice to be here and I hope to be more acquainted with all of you.

Angelle (Lyrae) | 9 comments Hello ate She, I'm from La Union din po hehe :) Welcome to good reads, I enjoyed reading your introduction, especially this part: "My dream house consists of a library where I can read all day while my husband voluntary does the house chores and serve me coffee once in a while"

message 3790: by Jim (new)

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 99 comments Hello, mga kabayan. I'm Jim Pascual Agustin, currently living in South Africa. I have two books of poetry recently released by the University of Santo Tomas Publishing House -- ALIEN TO ANY SKIN and BAHA-BAHAGDANG KARUPUKAN.

I read and write poetry mostly, in both English and Filipino. I also do translations.

I am active in the Poetry! discussion boards here.

Maybe one day some of you can read and review my books - I can't even physically promote them in the Philippines obviously.

Rollie (zheick) | 2096 comments Hallo JIM. Welcome to TFG. :)


message 3792: by kwesi 章英狮 (new)

kwesi 章英狮 (kwesifriends) | 2752 comments Hi Jim, welcome to GR-Filipinos. I'm not really a fan of reading poetry but I read some like Neruda.


message 3793: by Jim (new)

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 99 comments thanks. my poems are easier to read than Neruda. :)


message 3794: by kwesi 章英狮 (new)

kwesi 章英狮 (kwesifriends) | 2752 comments Sana nga, where can I buy your books? Curious.


message 3795: by Jim (new)

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 99 comments Kwesi, my books should be available in most National Bookstore outlets. Phone or email them first, just to make sure. I know that Solidaridad Bookshop in Malate, Manila definitely has them, so does the bookshop at Filipinas Heritage Library in Ayala.

Thanks for the interest. The blogs for the books are:
www.alientoanyskin.wordpress.com and www.karupukan.wordpress.com

K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments JIM and MIA: Welcome! Enjoy your stay (make it forever).

JIM: I'll watch out for your book (but your name does not look familiar I would say).

MIA: That's not too late. Happy reading!


message 3799: by Rollie (new)

Rollie (zheick) | 2096 comments Welcome Mia to TFG!


message 3800: by Jim (new)

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 99 comments KD, sorry if my name does not sound familiar... I've been out of the country for many years. Ricky de Ungria and Rogelio Mangahas gave very positive feedback on my respective books. I don't know if you are familiar with them.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
