Top Ten Tuesday | Top Ten Albums that I could listen to FOREVER


A while ago, I wandered around The Broke and The Bookish book blog. This particular blog is famous for its weekly meme, Top Ten Tuesday, which bookish people fervently participates in. With that in mind, I decided to check the topics being discussed in the following weeks and only to be surprised that the topic for this week is something that I actually would love to talk about. Then and there, I immediately thought of still crafting a blog post for it even though Tuesday had already passed. Here’s the topic for September 20, yesterday:

All About Audio freebie --  aka top ten audiobooks you should listen to, 10 books I want to listen to on audio,10 bands you should check out, 10 podcasts you should be listening to, 10 of my all time favorite albums, 10 songs I love, really whatever you can come up with.

I tweaked this prompt and created this... Hope you'll enjoy this!


Top Ten Albums that I could listen to FOREVER

(I will randomly name some albums that I have in my playlist for quite a long time yet I still listen to up until now.)


1. Modern Minds and Pastimes by The Click Five

Remember The Click Five's hit song Jenny? Or the catchy happy birthday song, Happy Birthday? Or the mellow, Empty? Those songs actually belong to The Click Five's second album yet a first for their new vocalist, Kyle Patrick. During the year this album was released, I went gaga over them and if I remember correctly I went pretty active on Myspace because of them. There was something about Kyle's voice that drew me in and add in their awesome and catchy songs. I'm sold. My favorite song out of this album (which sadly wasn't released as a single) is I'm Getting Over You. Headlight Disco and When I'm Gone were my jam too!

Listen to Modern Minds and Pastimes on Youtube. 


2. Riot! by Paramore


Riot! was the album where I feel like Paramore is at its peak. Hayley's killer voice, Zac's drum skills  and Josh & Jeremy's guitar rifts were the key points that gave Paramore its definitive sound. With those things, you'll immediately know if it is Paramore that you're listening to. Paramore is Paramore and no other band can recreate the magic that they have. 

In my opinion, they seriously killed this album and offered their fans lots of great materials to listen and sing-along to. All songs have a single material to it and has that recall factor. After all these years, songs from Riot! are still stuck in my head and I could gladly sing it at the top of my head. My favorites from this album are: Misery Business, CrushCrushCrush, That's What You Get, Born for This, Hallelujah and When It Rains.

TOP TEN TUESDAY (2): TOP 10 BOOKS ON MY SUMMER TBR LIST



Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by the awesome people over at The Broke and the Bookish.

This week's topic is about the TOP TEN BOOKS ON MY SUMMER TBR LIST! But since it's not summer over here in the Philippines, I'll just list down SOME of the books that I'm anticipating to be released in the coming months and some books that were released already but I still haven't got the time to read it yet! Most of the books even have the summer-y feel to it. :) 




UGLY LOVE by Colleen Hoover
Publication Date: August 5, 2014
Publisher: Atria Books
Synopsis: 
When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she knows it isn’t love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. 
Never ask about the past.Don’t expect a future. 
They think they can handle it, but realize almost immediately they can’t handle it at all. 
Hearts get infiltrated.Promises get broken.Rules get shattered.Love gets ugly.
I already prepared lots of tissues for the release of this book. I'm scared that it's going to break my heart again and again and again. Here's what Colleen Hoover (the author herself) said about Ugly Love: 
Miles. Miles, Miles, Miles. Seven books I've successfully completed. Will? He didn't make me cry when I wrote him. Holder? Nope. No tears, here. Daniel? I might have pissed myself laughing. Ridge? Heart wrenching, soul-crushing. But dry eyes. Miles?Miles, Miles, Miles. He's making me bawl like a baby.

TOP TEN TUESDAY (1): Books I’ve Read So Far This Year


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by the awesome people over at The Broke and the Bookish.

This the first time that I'm joining this book meme and I'm very excited about doing this blog post at 10:08PM! This week's topic is about the TOP TEN BOOKS I'VE READ SO FAR THIS YEAR. Well, this will be quite a task for me since I've read 79 books already. Hmmm. *runs off to check my Goodreads account* 

Wohoops! Here's the list of my TOP TEN BOOKS that I'VE READ SO FAR THIS YEAR! This is in no particular order because these books are all amazing in their own way and (just NO) I CAN'T EVEN manage to rank it! Ha! :) 

1. American Girl on Saturn by Nikki Godwin

CALLING ALL FANGIRLS (ESPECIALLY BOYBAND FANGIRLS) OUT THERE, this book is totes written for you guys! If you're a friend of mine in real life or just a Facebook/Twitter friend, I'm sure you know how I act when it comes to these boybands/bands/groups (or whatever collective name you wanna call them)! I reaaaaaaaaaaaaally FANGIRL hard! Complete with the *fans myself* + *runs around the house* + *screaming and flailing* movement = CRAZY. So when I read this book, I was just like OMG SQUEALING and constantly being drowned with FEELS! This book is such a good one for us boyband fangirls, I tell you. And you better listen to me! I definitely definitely recommend this book!
"The summer after graduation is supposed to be that first real taste of freedom - but not for eighteen-year-old Chloe Branson. Just as that breeze of freedom is making its way into her galaxy, her secret-service-agent dad drops a meteor-sized bomb of bad news on her and her sisters. An attempt has been made on the lives of Canadian boyband, Spaceships Around Saturn, during their USA tour, and the guys have to go into hiding ASAP. The only problem? In the midst of the crisis and media frenzy, their dad volunteered to hide the guys...in their house.", part of the synopsis for this book. 
 2. Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire 

Reading this book will give you a complete reader's experience, here's my immediate thought after reading this book ...


"Ah shit. Damn feels! This book, shizz for the most part made me giggle, cringe, drown with feels, grin like a freakin’ fool, CRY and in some parts made me want to pound my head on the desk because of Abby or Travis’ decisions/stupidity. But seriously though, I really enjoyed reading this book." Full book review posted on my blog and on Goodreads.
