Book-ing

Kuya Ping is off for a two-week holiday in Manila this coming Wednesday and I’m almost done with my pasalubong list. I think a good read would complete my list, so I'll be asking Kuya Ping to buy me a few titles. Although I still have a stack of books left dusty and ancient as the Doctrina Christiana somewhere, I do want something refreshing and entertaining to keep me occupied until ABC-CBN gets smarter with their version of Big Brother! Hellooooo! We don’t see mammary glands, penises and vaginas kaya!
[Big Brother Australia http://bigbrother.3mobile.com.au ]

So there, I need your help guys. Your recommendation would be most appreciated. Thank you tru, you all gud pla man-meri.*

there's enough tsismis from the filipino community to sustain me year long, so i don't really fancy some more...

light read, comedy, how-to books, autho-bio or bio...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1586214349/103-0151335-2843006?v=glance&n=283155

I've read Me Talk Pretty One Day and Holidays on Ice and I enjoyed reading him.

@iam: thanks for the reco,
who i want to see naked? with this edition (teen)...none really

seriously though, its not just the naked bodies and sex that Pinoy Big Brother is lacking of...

Not a big fan of nekked kids. How about someone in American Idol nekked instead? He hee

since people are recommending books, i may as well chip in my two cents.

"perks of being a wallflower" by stephen chbosky,

"hey nostradamus!" and "eleanor rigby" both by douglas coupland.

those are three of my favorite books. all three are kinda edgy in the youthful exitstentialism mode.
 




At 4:02 PM, Blogger Bryan Anthony the First said........
thanks for the reco @carl... nostradamus thing made my eyes glow!

@ momel...try mo tung link na to www.nifty.com, or google (i know you'll gonna hate this) "bisexual stories"

@bryan:
hey thanks for the idea about the special mother's day post. im gonna get ready for that. pictures! pictures! pictures!

I ain't sure if Pinoy Big Brother would be interesting with the type of review board (MTRCB) we have. Jologs!!!
 




At 8:00 AM, Blogger Bryan Anthony the First said........
no worries @ iam
 




At 11:27 AM, Blogger ira said........
how about The Historian. if you like vampires and such, you'll like this. :)
 




At 1:37 PM, Blogger Bryan Anthony the First said........
i love vampires! cause they bite...and suck...
 




At 1:51 AM, Blogger /iambrew said........
i love vampires coz they're really classically sexy... but i wont like the biting part. but sucking? i like!!!
 




At 12:52 PM, Blogger ira said........
haha you guys need to let out your steam! ;)

At 8:26 PM, Blogger /iambrew said........
