Downtime

Currently sitting outside a convention in a hotel in Davao City. Waiting waiting waiting... Trying intently to find something interesting to do in this idle time. I've been speaking with the people around the area, checking the internet for news whenever the intermittent connection gets a bit steady and I can actually open my online accounts. 
Thinking of watching Avengers on the cinema, but knowing that if I do go with that decision It'll be pretty cramped. Lots of people are watching the hot movie at the moment, one of the malls even had 5 cinemas open for that one show. 
Anyway, now it's pretty warm in the 2nd floor of the function lobby I'm staying in. Weird since it's supposed to be air conditioned... Where did all the payments go?
I'm all just ranting. Nothing substantial in this little post, nothing informative as most of the case with the posts I'm posting. I still haven't created that blog I was planning before and now thinking of selling some of my books on facebook and ebay. Also, I would like to finish the novel I've been reading last night. It's by Erin McCarthy and it's really entertaining. As usual, Ms. McCarthy's amazing. I'll continue to read the said novel later on and if I'm not too lazy perhaps practice actually making reviews of the books I've read. I'm told it could give out positive results.
I shall strive to do just that... I could even return to writing on pen and paper and not simply typing things up, though i know typing it on the computer is more practical. Knowing that you won't go on typing the same things you've written before. Thus, twice the work. Plus you can post it immediately after typing :)
Rants off :)

Almost There

Counting the days till the release of the fifth installment of Cassandra Clare's super awesome Mortal Instruments series (I don't know if it's still ok for me to call it the 'Mortal Instruments' series since they've already fixed that trouble on book 3: City of Glass ^_^ but the title sticks so yeah I'm using it still). I'm really excited since I've read some sizzling hot excerpt (which according to Miss Clare might/will be revised for younger readers) with Jace and Clary and I'm like whoa!!! please please please have the book released earlier pretty please.
I'm also looking forward to reading The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead. It's another of my all time faves, since I adore Adrian from the Vampire Academy Series and is hoping to hear more from him with his sad ending on Last Sacrifice. I'm looking forward to his relationship with Sidney Sage. They're like complete opposites of each other. With Sidney as the perfect model for Alchemist good behavior (according to most alchemists since we all know what she did), and Adrian, the bad boy (you know what I mean). Anyway, I'm so looking forward to these two installments. And I hope our bookshops nearby won't disappoint by getting the copies too late or something. But I'm pretty positive I'll get the books on time ^_^

Right now, I've been busying myself with some other books by other authors. The last book I've finished (last night and I slept at around 2am), is Clarity by Kim Harrington. I'm totally loving the series. I'm off to reading Perception right after. Then on my shelf is Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins. They're both entertaining reads. I should make a booklist roll or something, with books read and on shelf to read, and looking forward to... Like on goodreads. Or better yet, stick to goodreads. You get the latest news and stuffs, plus detailed book reviews so you don't have to wonder much if it's worth buying or not.

I'm pretty much making insensible rants again. It's becoming a habit whenever I open my dashboard and click new post. I couldn't stop myself ^_^. I'm trying again to write something as always, bought a few notebooks and some pen which just ends up piling on my already tall pile of notebooks and pens for future use (hopefully when I actually have the inspiration and patience to start writing again).

As I said, rants again... must stop
So I'll just post this post and then check if the rain has stopped pouring outside. Since it was pouring hard about an hour ago.
