One of the BEST book series ever made! :)

It's 9:30pm and I'm here sitting in my bed making a new blog post. 5 minutes ago, I finished reading Rick Riordan's 'The Last Olympian' on the same spot. I must say, The Olympian Series is one of the best series I've ever read in my entire life. The series is primarily based in Greek Mythology which have not interested me so much before until I found out about this book series. 5 books compose the series: The Lightning Thief, the Sea of Monsters, the Titan's Curse, the Battle of the Labyrinth, and the Last Olympian. I have heard these is another one after 'Last Olympian' but I have not confirmed yet. =)

The protagonist,Percy Jackson, discovers that he is a son of the Sea God, Poseidon. He also discovers that the mythical beings of the greek mythology have always existed. Olympus, the home of the gods, is said to be located, presently, at the 600th floor the Empire State Building in New York City. Percy is frequently attacked by monsters because he is a child of the "Big Three": Zeus, the god of the sky, Poseidon, the god of the sea and the god of the Underworld, Hades who swore not to have any more children because their children would be too powerful and unpredictable. The other reason for the agreement is the propecy prophesied by the Oracle that a child of the "Big Three" was going to decide the fate of Olympus when he/she ages 16. The pact was made to prevent the prophecy from happening but then both Zeus and Poseidon breaks the pact and had children (Thalia Grace, demigod daughter of Zeus and Pery Jackson, son of Poseidon). Hades ironically has not broken the pact or so they thought. He had Bianca and Nico di Angelo who were born before the war but had been hidden by Hades in the Lotus Hotel Casino for 70 years to keep them safe because they were forbidden to live.

I Believe in GRIMMIE!

Christina Victoria Grimmie

YouTube is one of my favourite sites next to twitter. When I get bored, I just open it and watch some videos, I usually use it to listen to music.

Months ago, I discovered this singer which had me hooked to her videos until now. I reckon she's got one of the most jaw-dropping voices I've ever heard in my life. Her name's Christina Grimmie. She's a 16-year old singer. She's got 54,938,192 views on YouTube and still counting. She loves singing, writing songs, playing piano, guitar and a little bit of drums. She plays the piano by ear She's also obsessed with the video game Zelda (don't ask me about video games because you aren't getting anything of that topic from me.) She's also proud of being a Christian. It was even posted on her youtube, "Jesus is my Saviour and I sing for Him." She idolizes Christina Aguilera, Stacie Orrico and James Hetfield.

I adore her. She one of my inspirations. I'm sure she's going to make it big, with an amazing talent like that. I'm willing to bet on it. Until that time comes, I hope she'll be posting more of her videos. I'm going to support her all the way because I know she's got something big to share to the world.

You are not alone.

Have you seen God? I haven't. But I felt him.

I was waiting for a jeepney to ride on this afternoon at about 5:30pm. It was already dark and I was worried there isn't any jeepney to ride on any more since every jeepney that passed by was full. What made the situation worse was that, it rained. I was waiting for already 10 minutes and I was worried sick. I was also getting wet. In my mind, I was praying. My thoughts were interrupted when a woman carrying an umbrella called me to share her umbrella so wouldn't get wet & sick. It turned out that she was going to ride the same jeepney I was going to ride on. It was so full that I almost got out & wait for another but then a man offered me his place and got out.

You would have thought those were little things and are not of great importance but hey, not everybody does that. For me, it was a sign that God was just there by my side watching me. We take him for granted sometimes. We even think he has abandoned us because he doesn't answer our prayers. I believe there is a time for everything and he's got a reason why he did not fulfill your wishes. Everything happens for a reason, so they say. Those people? I regard them as angels. I can truly say that there is a little piece of the Kingdom of heaven here on Earth. I have just proved that to myself. You know, we could also be angels to others and together we can make the Earth a place of God's glory.
