As promised,here are my 7 romance novels,from worst to best.If I mentioned 9 in an earlier post,sorry hehe,I haven't finished the other 2
7)Love Cuts (3 stars)
Nothing much really,two sisters,one married with a daughter,the other on-and-off with a circus performer.Sisters' friend had a bf that's lovey-dovey.Friend has cancer.
This isn't really good in my eyes,and the star of the book is GASP!A chemise!!yeah,a piece of clothing stole the show,providing the funniest and most touching moments in my opinion....
6)Romeo Of The Underworld (3 1/2 stars)
Pretty odd plot here.Who would start with the main man almost dying on a plane crash?Well,the guy survived.He flew because an old friend of had invited him over.Friend has to leave,and the 36 year old found an 18 yr old girl.Guy thinks she's familiar,remembers of his past love and searches for her family to make up the time he lost.
It's something like that.It is pretty complex,and it would have been really good if it weren't for the last sentence in the book,which shows that he gave up on his past love.I felt like shouting:RUINS!! just because of that sentence which spoiled the whole thing
5)Stoker's Bay (4 stars)
Boy goes boarding for 5 years,and before that,parents told him about ***.Ridiculous.4 years passed,and in the 5th year he found a girl and a best friend.Best friend likes her too.That makes 2 boys,so add a 3rd who's a mechanic for her dad and it's chaos!!Not for those who like blood as in comes in the end,but it's worth reading and it actually made me crumble when I finished it.Don't look at the back,I know it's irresistible,but don't....
4)Looking For Alibrandi(4 stars)
A female vice-captain likes a male captain from another school and another male captain from another school likes her.Throw in illegitimacy,multiculturalism,a shocking plot and her b*tchy captain and you'll get something saucy.The movie's not bad either....
3)Touch Me (4 stars)
Football star falls in love with another "boy".Gay? NAhhh...you'll find it out.Really touching stuff...Shows how bad boys can be(and gallant :D).
2)Fifteen Love(4 stars)
Mia thinks boys are stupid.
They use 1% of their brains
All they talk about is cars and sports
All they think about is ***
Will is a boy who wants to know what girls talk about
He wishes he had a secret mirophone in the girls toilet.
This is a story of a boy and a girl,a viola and a tennis racket,friends,family and love.
Short,but hilarious and sweet,containing bad viola jokes and a tennis star serving up a love storm.
1)Pride and Prejudice(4 1/2 stars)
Absolute classic.Who would think a man like that would exist?Not telliing you everything,read and be charmed.If it's dull,bear with it until you get electrified.Set in the early 19th century,this is a novel that remains the benchmark of romance for more generations to come

Whole lot of things in just one post
Ok everyone,it's gonna be a short summary this time...if I had internet everyday...then it woulda been a long,good story,but yeah,please forgive me T>T
Basically....there are just about 4 things for this week
1)I missed the social on Friday night.
Why?I conducted my own 'survey' and asked my buddies in school.Almost everyone went,save for me and my Korean buddies.And I would say practically 100% of the boys who went just wanna grab some girls.....PATHETIC!!WHAT ON EARTH IS WRONG WITH THEM??!!Geez....really immature.Period.That's what really separate the men from the boys:Girls.I'm not calling myself a man or anything,I'm taking this from an alien point of view XD.Boys chase girls,but men are content with the one they love and no one else.
2)I've been reading romance novels
No Twilight yet,but I'm beginning to think it's a bad choice.I found that recent romance novels are not really up to par with the old times,but there's some I would recommend in the books category.It's in my post later..
3)Sports
I'm kind of sloww around here,but I've been performing pretty average in my tennis so yeah,I'm heading into training for the school..
4)Music
There's really soo much to love,too bad there's no Chinese...ARGH!!
Well...apologies for the shorts but yeahh...I'll update as much once the internet's available

Girls.....boys just can't beat them when playing against them...
Heyaz people I might be taking a short hiatus,problably until my 1st term hols in 3 weeks so yeah,maybe less updates.Hopefully,I'll pull through and keep this bugger improvised.
As you know,this story is not about life,but about tennis...And yeah,I flunked to a girl again XD.
Well,the story begins with something weird from me.
I had a tennis buddy,Zack who said to me:"Girls are hot,aren't they?" =.= Certainly I was in no mood,and replied:"Don't think of girls,seriously,don't even try till you're done with your studies,got a job and stable income,etc,etc...After all,you don't wanna be a daddy when you're 18 right?"And aparently,ex-tennis college captain Steve,who's now coaching,so happens to catch a little of what I said...and I supposed he thought I said something pervy XD(Go figure out the sentence).
Ah well,I went about my tennis with one of my mates,Alex,who's a Pinoy just like half of me.We were told to practice our smashes with our partners who were girls.And guess what?I smashed,wrong direction and hit one of em.Ouch!!
She had a payback though,when we were playing a game which does not allow you to volley,I got forced to the net,and she hit towards me.Couldn't dodge,and the ball plowed through my stomach.The side effect:Stomach ache for the remainder of the time.
Next up,we had to play 1 game against each person.And yep,I lost to her again.Geez,I mean,me and Alex are shorter than the two girls and we're younger,so no shame right?hehe,called that being bullied XD.Girls are SOOOOO unfair because they're taller XD....

The Chemist,Need Of Help and Close Call
Sorry for the lame topic,but I'm gonna make it pretty short.First of all,I got a video showing the reaction between pure sodium and hot water(Hehe fun!!).I'm gonna need some help in getting it up in my blog so yeah,anyone can help,please do,I appreciate that.Also I've got some photos from my trip to the Underwater World which I also want to upload(Maybe you get to see my face XD)
Lastly,I'm in trouble....big trouble....a report says I've been skipping school(I don't do that,do I?Except the one on F4 where I skipped chinese due to crying cuz offailing my A-Maths).All thanks to my switch of subs.Dad wanted me to take Physics instead of Geo,so I changed just for what he wanted...and ta-dah....My timetable is mixed up.Thanks to my dean though,I was found totally innocent.Still....I don't know what's gonna happen......

Against The Storm(And Chinese)
Sorry if I kept you all waiting,but yeah,I suppose some of you know about Cyclone Hamish lurking around(it's almost gone now) on Tuesday.We had our bio excursion and it was HEADING RIGHT INTO THE STORM.Can you believe it?Nuts!!The cyclone could have head straight towrds us at anytime.Fortunately we were about 250-300 km away but still....WHOOOOOOSH!
Our excursion took us to Mooloolaba Underwater World.It's not really that big as the Australia Zoo or the one in Singapore,but it still is a beauty.There are so many fine specimens there.There's even a glowing fish,lungfish,sawfish(yep,doesn't cut down trees though),a tunnel which contains soooo many different fishes,rays(which occasionally give us their belly) and.........SSSSSSHHHHHHHAAAARRRRRKKKKKSSSS!!!!(We're gonna need a bigger boat Zzzzz)We had an assignment to do there,which is using the dichotomous key on the shatrk you pick to determine what shark is it.Simple,isn't it?Well,if you know what shark it is.....Leopard,Wobblegong,Grey Nurses,Mako(Sorry Jaws fans,no great whites here..)
There was also a time for a little show which involves sea lions.And boy,are they playful!!At the start of the show,the host was calling out for one of the sea lions for a few times.Unfortunately the animal didn't appear,so he went to the back and check(apparently it was a trained act).As he was away,out comes the bugger from the water,opens up the box,and munches the food.The guy comes back out,and thinks nothing happened....until he checked the box...hehe....
Basically the seals were told to do special tricks like handstand,contortion(that puts me to shame),wave hands and also do the 'pai seh' face XD.HONTONI KAWAII DESHI!!There was young lucky audience member who got to feed one of the seals.It was awesome to see the seal do a high jump(I'm in even more shame now XD).But the funny part was somehow the audience slipped and fell into the pool.Luckily,she could swim,and so the host told her to swim to an island in the middle of the pool....And OUT COMES A SHARK!!(IT's not a trained one).Nah kidding,it's actually a seal swimming around with the Jaws soundtrack playing XD.And out pops the seal,with something in it's mouth.....A PAIR OF SHORTS!!!Ahem,talk about a naughty seal haha...
Like every placeof interest there's bound to be a souvenir shop,but I won't tell you what I bought XD...You guess haha
