Defining Love

I came across this book while searching for the paperback cover of the Wimpy Kid 6 and another book which was inspired by the Sex and the City movie (forgot the title) yesterday at Fully Booked.

The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan

The book was describe as a love story written in a dictionary form (sounds interesting :])

Search for some excerpts of the book but I came across the author's twitter account instead and to my surprise all of his tweets were about the book's definition of love.

Sharing some notable tweets of the author:

camera, (n.): What I capture is something of you and something of the way I look at you.

call, (n.): When I’m away, I still want you to be the last voice of the night.

bulletproof, (adj.): I don’t want an invulnerable heart, but I want everything else to be protected, so your aim would have to be perfect.

both, (adj.): With one simple word, we are joined - and yet it still acknowledges that we are two. This is my ideal.

bombard, (v.): When you use “I love you” to prove something, it proves nothing but your own desperation.

betrayal, (n.): I don’t know which is worse – that you did it, or that you wanted to.

Those are just some of the many love definitions in the book and I really find it interesting, aren't they? Guess where my weekend trips will take me. LOL! :] It's a good opportunity for me to read something new. The last book that I read was Dear John pa!

Happy Tuesdays!

Des Fleurs et Des Chocolats

This is just a quick post on what I received from Tinee last Monday.

I usually receive roses from her on special occasions but this one's exceptional because she gave me Chrysanthemums ("mums"). Tinee told me that it reminded her of a Gossip Girl episode where Chuck gave Blair a bouquet of peonies (B's favorite flower and B's my favorite character)

Chocolates, 3 of its kind. I like chocolates that have biscuits, cookies, or wafers inside. I like the munching sound whenever I eat them LOL! :] 

More chocolates :]. I know it's fattening but I love white chocolates. I can gobble a whole bar of Toblerone in one sitting. LOL! :] I also love mint chocolates and Andes is my reliable buddy when it comes to choco mints.

If you are shy to ask someone out on a date why not try asking it with Mentos :] LOL! Cute Mentos packaging for Valentine's Day plus it has a surprise inside.

Ta-dah! Found two pink colored Mentos inside, I was really surprised to the point that I posted it on instagram. LOL!

So there, those were the things that I received last Monday. I know it sounds cliche, but I am that kind of girl who likes receiving flowers and chocolates not just on Valentine's day but on any other day with or without occasion. :]. For sure next week I'll die because of toothache. LOL!

Drizzling Thursday Everyone..

P.S

Spread the LOVE not just on Valentine's day but everyday.

Love Plans for the Love Month

Today is last day of January and the love month is surely fast approaching, well if that's the case then I needed to plan something on what to do since Tinee will be out of town on most days of February.

So I'm thinking of planning the following:

PLAN #1 : Movie Date

I'm a big fan of Rachel McAdams when she portrayed Ally from the movie The Notebook  and Channing Tatum as John Tyree from Dear John. I'm a hopeless romantic and Tinee knows it. So when I knew that they were going to be in one film I knew I had to watch it. Good thing I still have a voucher left from Ensogo.com (Group buying site). "The Vow" (title of their movie) for me is a must-see film these February and it will be release on the 10th.

PLAN #2 : Spa Date

Perks of having a Mom like mine is that you also get the chance of experiencing the perks given to her by her clients and one of them is getting free passes to a spa (Free GC's). Since Tinee's scheduled is jam-packed for the whole month of Febuary, I'm thinking of treating her to a full-body massage courtesy of my Mom. Hehe!

PLAN #3 : Dinner Date

This, I think the most hardest plan for me and I don't know why. First, because I wanted it to be special and I do not want a place that we have already tried. Second, I needed to think of a resto that is not too pricey. LOL! :] But if I fail in finding a new resto might as well stick with our favorites.

So far those 3 plans are the plans that I've come up with and not to forget they are just plans. I may or may not do them. Well it really depends on what will happened that month. :]

Just a little piece of advice, you need not to have an enormous amount of money just to plan something for someone special. All it takes is planning and saving up for the activities that you wanted to do with him/her. After all it's the thought that counts and it will be more special if you do something that comes from the heart.
