I have (overly) indulged myself in a glorious amount of books over the past five months, eighty-three freaking books! Eighty-three! All of which I will be writing reviews for, so look out for the link to my review page within the next few weeks. I'm one of the most picky people you'll ever meet when it comes to YA books.
The one series that has captured my heart, and will always have a place in my heart, however, is Raine Thomas' Daughters of Saraqael trilogy. Oh. My. God. The action and romance fit so perfectly together, there's just the right amount of both in every book.
I do believe though that I am in love with every male in each book, they are just so perfect in their own way, as mysterious and as clueless as they are, every moment they spend with their loved ones always made me swoon. (I believe I squealed more than usual too)
Sighhh.. Why can't actual men be as amazing as Gabriel, James or Caleb?! WHY. The world is not fair.
Caleb will always be my favorite though. The struggles he has while coming to terms with how he feels for Skye, my heart literally clenched in pain for them both. :(
SO SOMEBODY, PLEASE BE MY CALEB, PLEASE. D:
Love,
Francine.

Swooooooooonnnn.
He stepped forward to close the distance between us as he rested his forehead against mine. "The only life I want is one with you. I don't understand this gap you see between us, but can't you meet me somewhere in the middle?"
"The middle of what?"
"I don't know, the middle of tomorrow and forever the middle of life and death, the middle of normal and paranormal. Where we've always been."
I bit my lip nodding against his forehead. "There's a place or us there, right?"
"Always." He put his lips to mine, sealing our own little spot in the world. Together.

Ciao!
So recently, after finally graduating from Pre-U and getting into University, I've been rather productive... for a change. I work at Shamrock Irish Pub every weeknight, either waitressing or bar tending. I am proud to say that I now know how to make a Margarita, Snakebite and.. well, a lot of other things :p
Even though the hours are insane and I reach home around 3:30 every morning, my eye bags are horrible, and my immune system has finally been pushed to it's limit - I have no regrets.
The people I've met (Joe, Noor, Ayang, Auntie Mel, Roque and Jonathan; to name a few) are amazing people. They really showed me the ropes, and made me feel like I was part of the family. Never failed to make me smile and laugh, no matter how horrible my day was prior to actually coming into work. I'm eternally grateful for them and I will, always, always, ALWAYS, remember what they've done for me. The way they'd always poke fun at me, and tease me about being "pretty", and everything really. As the end of my time at Shamrock draws to a close, I just wanted to reminisce about all the great times I've experienced.
All the times we'd end up in tears from laughing because of customers who hook up with white guys, and white guys only, or the times I end up with beer froth all over my face because the draft barrels run out of beer, and the times I end up on my ass because the rubber mats behind the bar get stuck underneath things while I'm trying to roll up the mats during closing. How you guys won't let me carry anything because you're scared that I become 'muscular' hahaha! Ahh so many lovely memories.
So if you guys ever by any chance stumble across this post, just know that i'll always remember all of you & all the good times we've had. I will be thinking of all of you from Spain!
On the topic of Spain,
I've enrolled with Estudio Hispanico, Madrid, for a language and culture course :) Will be leaving on the 11th of October from KK at 12:40pm, and i'm going to be sitting in KLIA for five hours before my connection to Doha.
Words cannot explain how excited I am for this trip, I'm going to use it to clear my mind, and to find myself again, if you believe in that kinda thing. Also the exposure gained will be absolutely amazing! :) MY FIRST TIME IN EUROPE!! Man, so psyched!
So... Basically that's all that's happened recently :)
Love,
Francine.
