Blogging About the Books: The Happiness Project (Part 1)

Here's a perfect song for an oooey-goody-feely post! Enjoy. <3

The Happiness Project's The Secrets to Adulthood


Ehem! Ehem! Ehem! I know the title is a little bit off, 'cause when we say "ADULTHOOD", it's for people whose age (maybe) is on 30s and up. But, come to think of how it really will get out all the practicality of life and maybe you have to apply the re-reading to read and understand those secrets thoroughly. I've been enjoying reading this book. I'm a fan of self-help books, and that's what I really enjoy! 

I'm now on the second chapter, February is all about REMEMBER LOVE. As I read and meditate on the thoughts the second chapter tells, I am really feeling better and better! I'm looking forward to how this book will help me throughout the next 10 chapters creating a 12 chapter book. 

Anyway, here's a favorite quote from chapter two, "To be happy, I need to think about feeling good, feeling bad, and feeling right." 

So, what do you think about the Secrets to Adulthood and about the song? Let me know. :)

Blogging About the Movies: The Six Rules of Life

How do you get a girl to like you? This was asked to Sam by Josh while they were fixing the groceries he bought for Josh and his mother. The answer was given not on that moment, and the answer was not exactly an the answer to the question or maybe a lot better answer.


“The six rules of life.
1. Don't like something just because you think other people will like it, because they won't. 
2. What you think is important isnt. What you think is unimportant is. 
3. Lean into it. 
4. Don't shit where you eat. 
5. Most doors are closed so if you want them to open you need a cool knock. 
6. Don't sleep with people who have more problems than you do.”

This song gave me a feeling of really missing my family. :(

Blogging About the Movies: Sacrifice Defined

"I don't want to preach today, instead I just wanna talk to you, about a word we don't hear much anymore. Sacrifice. It's not what I would call a modern word. People hear the word sacrifice, and they become afraid that something will be taken away from them or that they will have to give up something they couldn't live without. Sacrifice, to them, means loss in a world telling us we could have it all. But I believe true sacrifice is a victory. That's because it requires free will to give up something for someone you love, or something or someone you love more than yourself. I won't lie to you. It's a gamble. Sacrifice wont take away pain and loss, but it wins the battle against bitterness, the bitterness that dims the light on all of the true value in our lives."
