THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Books for Sale

11.07.2011 by Leah //

I know this post is kinda off, but just to let you know, I sell my old books at eBay to be able to buy new titles hehe. I love books but we don't a library in which to store all of them in.   And with the rising prices of books today, I find it practical to re-sell those that I'm done with, especially since I'm not the type who will re-read a book again and again.   Lastly, ...

A Christmas Party in September

09.12.2011 by Leah //

My colleagues at the office decided to celebrate our Christmas Party very early because of the impending office re-org that will see us being transferred to different units.   It became our farewell party as well. The party was held at my boss' house (or should I say, mansion?) somewhere in Quezon City.  It was a sight to behold!   The Christmas lights adorning his house ... READ MORE

Surprises about Wedding Gifts

This post comes a little late.   I was supposed to blog about our wedding gifts but I totally forgot about it and now we're using most of them already hehe.Since, we did not specifically ask for monetary gifts, AJ and I received plenty of gifts.We had fun opening gifts (most of them in SM wedding wrappers in plain silver because our gift registry was from SM) and ...

Starting on our book collection

06.28.2011 by Leah //

AJ and I love to read books.   It is our common denominator.   His interests and mine were not exactly the same but we somehow influenced each other with each other's preferences.   I remember when we were still in the getting-to-know you stage he gifted me with the book "See No Evil: The True Story of a Ground Soldier in the CIA's War on Terrorism" by Robert Baer.    This was ...

A book about a storm…

06.21.2011 by Leah //

It's been raining hard since last Saturday, no thanks to typhoon "Egay" which dumped rains in the Metro until yesterday afternoon. And just when I thought the weather will clear up today because the storm is supposed to have left the country, another episode of strong winds and afternoon showers greeted me on our way home.    So I think I will sleep half-soundly tonight if ...

Starting to Pack Up

03.20.2011 by Leah //

In less than 3 months I'll be moving to a new home, after living with my parents for 33 years.   It's my first time to be living independently, although I will not be really alone as it's going to be a shared life with AJ (yihee!).   I am both excited and scared at the same time, since I was a pampered girl in the family who only knows how to wash ...
