Calvin & Hobbes make me feel better

I’ve been sick since before New Year’s, hence the lack of posts.  But then I started reading Calvin & Hobbes again.  This strip just warms my heart every time.

Admit it:  you laughed. :)  I laughed till I coughed and laughed again. :)

And this also reminded me of that man who calls to hear the melodious sound of my voice.  Teehee.

Snape and Shakespeare

I have heard of this clip a few months ago, and my biggest mistake was to not save that link.  Managed to find it in YouTube.

I imagine Snape reading this in class, but then again, Snape is too snooty.  Either way, it is a very romantic reading.

Because Snape is mentioned, I figured fan art must be posted. :)

Secrets: The Blog That Changed My Life

Exaggerated?  Not really.  I mean it when I say PostSecret saved my life.

PostSecret was founded in 2005 by Frank Warren.  He encouraged everyone to send a postcard — stylized, of course — and reveal a secret that you have never ever ever ever spoken of before.  He uploads these postcards in his website, and soon enough, it has created an anonymous community of acceptance.

A few years after its launching, PostSecret teamed up with 1-800-suicide to help out the anonymous cries for help he usually receives in the mail.

I love this site.  I completely, absolutely, love everything about this site.  I also downloaded the app, and although there are quite a few non-secrets revealed there, I still love it.

This site made me feel that I am never alone in whatever I am going through.  More than a couple of times, I have been able to relate to some of the secrets revealed there.  The sharing is therapeutic; it’s almost like a breath of fresh air, just letting it out.  I love this site for the fresh air.

Head over there and I guarantee, if you just let yourself feel and open up for a while, you’ll feel exactly like this.

What about you?  What blog changed your life?

Harry Potter Deleted Scene

So far, this is my favorite deleted scene.  This is from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows 2.

My niece loves to read

I loved the weekend I spent with my niece mainly because I saw just how much she loves books.

I would like to believe I passed it on to her.  Together with Bianca.  And Tita Pinky.  And Tita Babeth.  And… maybe everyone in the Lolarga clan.  But still, I passed it on.
