Neuvième: Critique de livre
Bonjour! :)
How's everyone? It's been months since I wrote an entry here... I wish someone's still reading this..hahaha so today, I just read one of the sweetest and most romantic novels EVER. I've read hundreds, but this one zoomed straight on top of my most beloved stories ever. Wanna know what novel it is?:)
It's Anna and the french kiss! Yeah, call me biased or whatever, but what a great novel!! I must admit I got interested to read this because of the Parisian setting but once I got through it, I'm pretty sure I was in love with a boy from a book AGAIN.(damn this life.hahaha:p)
When I read a book, I usually don't care about the female lead as much as I care about the male one. When I tell stories to my friends about a book, or send them quotes from the book I've last read, it's usually centered on the male protagonist because they usually have the best lines and they are so perfectly described on the books and well, I'm a female so I fall in love with them everytime:D But with Anna and the french kiss, I can honestly say that I love the perfectly flawed Anna Oliphant as much as I love the french-american boy who speaks british, Etienne St. Clair.(what a fine boy<3) They are both imperfect but they are perfect for each other, which I guess is the best formula for romance. Definitely one of the best teen romance I've ever read!! Can someone tell me where can I find my own Etienne?<3<3<3
Stephanie Perkins did an AMAZING job in describing Paris! Darn, I really felt like I was in Paris, walking through those cinemas Anna loved and admiring the gorgeous Notre Dame<3 Now I have another place to yearn for there, the point zero, which is special for the both of them... I am forever a sucker for romance, and Paris!<3 Someday baby..:)
I recommend this book for everyone who loves romance like me. Yes, even if you don't like Paris that much, the story makes up for it. Or if you don't like romance that much, the way Paris was treated here is worth it. I promise this a very, very good book. Deux pouces en l'!<3
Un jour, Paris:)

Huitième
Hi everyone! Cela a été un long moment!:)
This is actually an accidental post again. Hahaha but this will have to be the closest in my heart<3
Aside from dreaming about Paris, I'm a big Kpop fan!:) Blame it on a friend:P haha kidding! So in Kpop, there's your BIAS who is the artist you want the most. Amis, meet my girl BIAS, Sandara "Goddess" Park:">*insert fangirl scream*
Etude House
She's soooo pretty right?! And she inspired me to write this blog post! A while ago, she updated her Me2day, which is just like Korean Twitter, with this photo...
Dara's me2day
I was like, NO FREAKIN' WAY!!!O____O My girl just updated with a book about my dream place!! How awesome is that?! :)))) Then I suddenly remembered Dara with CL, Bom and Minzy collectively known as 2NE1 went to France last June for the Cannes Lions 59th International Festival of Creativity. They went there as guest speakers. Yep, they're that AWESOME!:)
They also had a photoshoot there! OMG you do know how awesome France is for sessions like that right?! Here is one of their photo!

Sixième
Hello people! Comment êtes-vous? ;)
This is probably the most "accidental post" in this blog so far. Hahahaha but I love it!
I am a twitter addict. When I wake up in the morning, my phone is the first thing I look for to log in my account. It is also the first site I open everytime I open my laptop *I am realizing how addict I am while writing this* hahaha! So while I am exchanging tweets to my lovely friends there, I accidentally looked at the trending topics and voila! Trending topic baby!!:)
Seems like many people share my dream! Let's all work hard and keep believing in the power of our dreams!:) Here are some quotes for ya'll! Let's keep the faith!:)
"When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by
dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing,
then we truly live life." - Greg Anderson
"Have the courage to follow your dreams. It's the first step towards attaining your destiny." - Nikita Koloff
"Happy are those who dream dreams and are willing to pay the price to make them come true." -Anonymous

Goodnight from the Philippines! Avoir une belle journée <3

Cinquième
Avoir la foi
1. Notre Dame Church
http://www.sacred-destinations.com
So the scenario will be I arrived in Paris, France at 7 in the morning. The first place I will visit is this beautiful and historical Notre Dame Church. I will never pass the chance to pray and give glory to HIM because he gave me the chance to fulfill my dream♥
2. The Louvre Museum
Mona Lisa anyone?:) I'd definitely visit this museum! It is a Paris landmark and I can just imagine the gorgeous and expensive paintings inside. Other than that, the paintings and sculptures are important part of the world history so it's a must to see them for me to learn something new:)
3. Avenue Montaigne
Paris is the fashion capital of the world, so there's a LOT of shopping districts there. Avenue Montaigne is one of them. Imagine designer brands like Chanel, LV and Jimmy Choo in the streets. That's exactly what Avenue Montaigne contains!:D I will definitely visit this district to window-shop. Yes, window-shop only. Hahaha:P
4. La Seine
Ahhhhh, the gorgeous Seine River! Of course I will NEVER let the chance of touring Paris in a boat pass, especially when the river is as beautiful as this one:) I think this will be better if you'll tour at night, with all the beautiful lights surrounding you. You are in the City of Lights after all:">
5. Eiffel Tower
I just have to save the best for last:) Paris isn't Paris if not for this beautiful and historic landmark. If I am given the chance, I'd prolly go here everyday of my life.haha:D I can just imagine the sense of happiness a person would feel if he is on top of this building and looking-over the City of Paris. If that would be me, I'd definitely feel like I'm the queen of the world. Hahaha! But yeah, Eiffel is really amazing to look at especially at night, with all those blinding lights and all. This is the last place I will visit on my first day in Paris because I want to be here at the evening, watching the gorgeous lights all over Paris, the City of Lights and Love♥
Am I dreaming too much guys? hahaha! Please bear with me! Thanks for reading♥
Essayer et essayer:)
Quatrième
Je suis un rêveur♥
I am so excited to write this post! I will give you my favorite shows which were filmed in Paris. It was sooooooo hard to choose because honestly, if a show is Paris-based, I get crazy already. LOL!:D But I've managed to choose my three favorites. Let's take a look shall we?:)
3.
www.imdb.com
If I am the fourth main star of this movie, we'd probably won't end up in Monte Carlo and stay in Paris forever because I will freakin' stop them to just even think of leaving! LOL.:P I must admit that the story wasn't as interesting as I expected but oh gosh, PARIS was gorgeously shot here!! I especially love the part when they were atop of Eiffel Tower and enjoying the view through telescopes:) I'd definitely do that when I go there..:D Another thing that I really like about this movie is I saw myself in Selena's character; she dreams of going to Paris and worked hard to achieve that. She even worked as a waitress for her Paris fund. Its really inspiring! If only I'm not super lazy to do that.*sigh* But in fairness, Monte Carlo is also a very beautiful place. If you're someone whose also into gorgeous places like me, watch this! You'll fall in love with Paris and Monte Carlo:))

I fell in love with KC when I watched this♥ This is a documentary of what her life was when she was studying in Paris. She showed her apartment, her favorite restaurants and just everything that she learned to love in Paris. She narrated that life in Paris wasn't bed of roses for her; she struggled at first because it wasn't easy to adjust in a foreign place where you don't know anyone and your family's miles away from you, but she declined to give up and she eventually lived happily there in the course of four years. Watching this made me really, really inspired to pursue this dream. I know I have a long, long way to go but seeing how beautiful Paris is in this documentary, I intend to work hard, keep my faith and believe that I will be there in God's perfect time♥

Forgive my fangirl heart!:"> I chose this as my number 1 because I freakin' love Gossip Girl, and this Chuck and Blair scene from the show's season 4 is THE BEST I'VE SEEN FROM THEM.♥ This was shot in Paris and that fact made this scene a million times better!!! I've provided a link, please watch it! I promise this is worth your time..:">
Adieu!:)
