Devil Wears Prada, Da Vinci Code, Tuesdays with Morrie, The Five People You Meet in Heaven, One More Day…and am currently reading The Memory Keeper’s Daughter and Eat, Pray and Love.

I’m happy that I’ve read all these books cus they were reaaally good. I like reading for the simple fact that it allows my mind to be a different place, mood and setting—not just because the writing styles are that good, but also because they really work into my imagination.

“Tuesdays With Morrie” was LIFE CHANGING. I think if everyone read it, we’d all be much happier with our lives. I actually no longer have a fear of aging but welcome it with open-arms because I’m excited to gain as much wisdom as Morrie did in his lifetime. It’s a must read!

Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa

I smile a lot more now, not for myself, but mostly for others. I’ve realized how friendly of a gesture it is—and also how simple. A smile can answer many questions too; you won’t have to answer “how are you?” because a smile already says you’re doing good. And it’s true, you give a smile, you get a smile back…well, usually. The reason why I smile more is because it’s much easier to give this impression/expression than to explain why you’re in such a crappy mood.

I finally have a routine and I’m so happy! (As we speak, my abs are really hurting from the class I took the other night.) I don’t go everyday and I really don’t mind because going everyday is such a hassle and my schedule doesn’t permit. I go about 2-3 times, which I’m content with. I do cardio and weight training each visit through classes or through free-style exercise. It’s made such a difference in my life; I have more energy and feel more alive and stronger than before when I never worked out. It did take me about a year to finally get into a routine with working out but I’m really glad I did it.
