Interviewing Celine: Week 8

Hi guys! It's already week 8 which means it's our eight featured blogger! 
Meet Celine, a fellow book blogger who also lives in the Philippines. Cool right? Get to know her by reading her answers from our questionnaire. :) 

1. Share your favorite joke or chat-up line.
Oh, this joke might be a little too dirty, so I won’t share. I’m so sorry BUT IT’S REALLY DIRTY. 

2. Most embarrassing moment?
Okay, so there’s this time I was like stalking this girl. We have 0 mutuals. I accidentally added her and I didn’t find out until she accepted me. Totally embarrassing. I don’t even want to think about it. The only good thing about it is that now I know I’m not fit to be a detective.

3. Zodiac sign?
Virgo!

4. Most daring thing you've ever done?
There was this time when I was a kid. My friend and I went in front of her crush’s house and we started yelling “*inserts my friend’s name here* likes you!!!” and “*inserts my name here* like you!”….. I’m never doing it again. This is a warning for you kids out there not to try it. Seriously. 

5. If you were about to be dropped in a pit of lava, what would you
choose as your last words?
I don’t want to die yet, so I’ll probably yell ‘Help me!’or something like that. 

6. Who is your favorite cartoon character?
Mr. Bean. He’s the best. 

7. When you were a kid, what was the thing that was understood by
everyone but misinterpreted by you? (Example: ______ used to wonder
why people said that there was 0% interest. She means why would anyone
buy it if it wasn't even the slightest bit interesting?)
When I was in grade school, my busmate asked me “If a rooster who is facing north lays an egg, where will the egg drop?”, I answered “South”. They all laughed at me, and I didn’t understand why. I was really proud of my answer but turns out roosters don’t lay eggs. So yep, shame on me.  

8. Who is your favorite blogger?
A lot. But all I can think of right now are Hazel from Stay Bookish (she takes amazing pictures! If you don’t know what contemporary book you should read next, then check out her blog!), Emily from The Book Geek, and Natasha from Natasha is a Book Junkie. 

9. Future plans?
As of now, my future plans involve me being a Psychologist and having lots of books. (Note: That’s not definite. I’m still debating what course will I take in college.)


10. Animal that you would own as a pet? (Birds, cats, dogs, fishes,
bunnies, and guinea pigs not allowed)
PANDA. OR PANDAS. They’re so fluffy!!! Well, at least I think they are. 

11. Do you believe ants are nutritious?
Yes! I ate one when I was a kid. :p

12. Star Wars or Star Trek?
Oh… I don’t watch Star Wars and Star Trek. (Don’t judge me!)

13. Favorite superhero?
I don’t really watch movies nor do I read comics, but my favourite superhero is Superman only because Henry Cavill portrays him. (Did you know? I haven’t watched the Avengers yet. -_-) 

14. Favorite super villain?
*SINGS DOOFENSHMIRTZ EVIL INCORPORATED* Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb!

clothing? 
My favorite pair of jeans!!! Fun fact: It used to be skinny. I’m still not sure how it became baggy. PS: Ignore my feet. 



18. Word that best describes you?
Divergent. Haha! Kidding. Diverse, maybe? Because I have a lot of hobbies. I love to read books, to play online games, to watch anime, and to draw. 

19. Favorite app?
I have tons of favorite app but if I have to choose one, it would be VSCO. If you haven’t downloaded it yet, then do it now. You have to get that app. The filters are just frickin' amazing.

20. What food do you crave right now?
Strawberry yogurt!!


21. What's the thing you can't live without?
Ummmm, a lot. I can’t live without my books, my laptop, and my iTouch.

Forgive me for this, but this is my happy place: 


DON’T YOU JUST SHIP US?

Interviewing Gail: Week 2

It's already week 2 of our little feature! If you are new to our blog, we basically interviewed different bloggers, so that you, yes you who are reading this right now can get to know them, while we get to know them too. For this week's featured blogger.. *drum roll sound* IT'S...


1. Share your favorite joke or chat-up line.
"Do you know what this shirt is made of? Boyfriend material." HAHA I just think it's so witty and cheesy.

2. Most embarrassing moment?

OH GOD I HAVE PLENTY. Um, I guess it was during my reading of honors in grade school. We were getting ready to have our picture taken when the photographer yelled, "WACKY POSE!" so I did my own thing. I remained in that position, not knowing he already took the "serious" photo. I was the only one doing the wacky pose while everyone looked so regal. I burned that photo soon after.

3. Zodiac sign?

Libra

4. Most daring thing you've ever done?
I guess my life's been pretty safe and boring. Does bathing and feeding an angry monkey count as daring?

choose as your last words?
THE FLOOR IS LAVAAAAAA!

6. Who is your favorite cartoon character?
Toph from Avatar: The Last Airbender

Star Wars!

(Examples: throw it in the ocean, bury it, dissolve it Breaking Bad

Interviewing Divergent Gryffindor: Week 1

25
We recently asked a couple of bloggers to answer a few interview questions. Every week, we will be posting the response of various bloggers, and by various we mean book/fashion/food/beauty bloggers. We really had fun doing this and we were able to talk to some bloggers, and became blogger friends too. This week's featured blogger is known as Divergent Gryffindor! Get to know more about her by reading her answers with our questions. We really enjoyed reading her answers, and we hope you do too! :) 

1. Share your favorite joke or chat-up line.
I can't remember anything funny right now! I'm a pretty boring person, sorry.

2. Most embarrassing moment?
I can't think of the most embarrassing moment, but here's a book-related thing. I was waiting while Melissa de la Cruz was signing my copy of Blue Bloods, when she asked me if I have read the book yet. I was on an internal battle because I didn't want to admit that I haven't read any of her books yet, but what if she asks me about it? So then I decided to tell the truth. I asked her to sign my friend's book too, and she asked me if I knew who their favorite characters were, and I just shook my head no! I actually didn't know any of the characters! I just brought Blue Bloods because I didn't want to miss the opporunity, and also, because there were two other authors in the event. I was so embarrassed, I wish I read the first book before meeting her!

3. Zodiac sign?

Saguittarius. :)

4. Most daring thing you've ever done?
Zip-lining! Yeah, it's lame, I know. I'm a pretty boring person. :P

5. If you were about to be dropped in a pit of lava, what would you
choose as your last words?
I can't think of anything now. 

6. Who is your favorite cartoon character?

My favorite cartoon is Phineas from Phineas and Ferb! Even at 17, I still watch that cartoon. HAHA!

7. When you were a kid, what was the thing that was understood by
everyone but misinterpreted by you? (Example: ______ used to wonder
why people said that there was 0% interest. She means why would anyone
buy it if it wasn't even the slightest bit interesting?)

I can't remember anything like that! :O

8. Who is your favorite blogger?
I don't really have a favorite blogger, but I have bloggers I look up to.

9. Future plans?
Save the world! Just kidding! It's actually always been a dream of mine to help an orphanage. I don't know why, I just thought of it back when I was still a kid! :)

10. Animal that you would own as a pet? (Birds, cats, dogs, fishes,
bunnies, and guinea pigs not allowed)
Dolphins! Aren't they just cute?

11. Do you believe ants are nutritious?
Uh, no. I'm scared of ants, actually, when there are a lot of them at once. *shivers*

12. Star Wars or Star Trek?
None? I know, I know. How lame am I, right?

13. Favorite superhero?
I don't like super heroes. I don't watch them. I have no childhood, I know! T.T I even fell asleep while watching Avengers. (Don't kill me, please!)

14. Favorite super villain?
Same answer as above.

15. Name one thing you love about yourself?
I love that I love reading! Teehee. :3

16. TBH…
I don't know why I'm still blogging. It's not that I don't love it, because I really do. It's just that I tend to get tired and quit things easily, but it's different with blogging.

17. What is your favorite shirt/dress/pants/jacket/hoodie/any piece of
clothing? Attach a picture.


I love the shirt because I love nautical stuff, and I love the shoes because it goes with anything! :D
(Same pic as my 'selfie')

18. Word that best describes you?
CRAZY.

19. Favorite app?
Kindle, no question! :D I get easily bored with games, that's why the answer would change everytime, so I chose a non-gaming app.

20. What food do you crave right now? Attach a picture

 
 I LOVE FOOD!! <3

21. What's the thing you can't live without?

Internet. I can't imagine a world without internet, even though we didn't have internet back when I was younger. But now that I've gotten used to it, I can't live without it. Besides, how would I be able to blog without the internet?

22. What's your happy place?

My quiet room, where I can be alone to read or catch up on TV series. :D

23. You just murdered someone. How would you dispose of their body?
(Examples: throw it in the ocean, bury it, dissolve it Breaking Bad
style) We're just curious, promise. :)

I'll throw the body into the ocean, so it can't be found. Also, because I'm not that original. Hart, hart. :))

24. Attach a selfie!


I know it's not exactly a 'selfie'. But hey, at least I'm alone in the picture! Sorry, I only have few pictures alone wherein I look like a normal human being. HAHA! :))

The Christmas Series: Number Two



Before you get any ideas, no I am not talking about poop.

Well of course, I'd be lying if I say I didn't get the idea of writing about poop for today's thanksgiving. Imagine paragraphs and paragraphs about the mechanics of pooping and how it has contributed to everyday life and society in ways unimaginable. Man, I could go on about it forever. Tempting. Almost wrote about it, but no.

There are a lot of more important things to talk about, say, pizza

But no, I'm not talking about pizza either, since it has nothing to do with the number two (which isn't poop, I repeat, NOT POOP). As much as I love pizza and could write about it for as long as I live, I can't. Tempting, but no. 

(Interested about pizza? Read what my friend Beryl has to say about it in thanksgiving #4 http://geekychiquitas.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-christmas-series-my-4-kinds-of-love.html?m=1)

So what's today's thanksgiving then, you ask?

Well let's try something cheesier than pizza today.

Peace.



But come on, you know me, I don't really like corny mushy stuff and I'm not going to talk about how I'm thankful for world peace and love and friendship makes the world a better place with butterflies and rainbows in the sky. Ech. Let me just throw up for a second.

No, not my thing, sorry.

Instead, I'd like to talk about how I'm thankful about peace in a different and more interesting way (hopefully) 

Let's start with a little trivia. Did you know that somewhere sometime in the 1900s, the peace symbol was first used during World War II as a symbol of victory? The Allied powers mostly used this v symbol to express their happiness after winning the war. It's become such a powerful symbol during that time; it also became a symbol that unified them as allies.

I find it quite funny and ironic how this sign used to be a celebration of the winning in a war, whereas today it has become a symbol of friendship and peace. A symbol that not just discourages war, but condemns it. So there will be no war victories here, since war is pretty much wrong in so many levels when peace is ever present in the world. There will just be a victory for peace in humanity.


I'm really thankful of the peace symbol. 

I'm thankful that the word peace is symbolically portrayed through the gesture of the index finger and middle finger raised together and parted while the other fingers are clenched, like doing the letter V sign or number 2. 

I love how the symbol is used by people today as a pose during pictures. I love seeing people take selfies with their two fingers up in the air. I know some people think that this is very jeje (), but I love seeing people with friends and families interacting everyday through this symbol.

What once was a symbol of victory in a war is now a universal symbol that means peace. Isn't that awesome? How you could just raise two fingers in the air to anyone in the world as you smile with your teeth out, without worrying if it could be negatively interpreted because everyone in the world knows what you mean. It's a very powerful symbol that connects people all over the world, and I think that without the peace symbol, wacky photos just wouldn't be the same, don't you agree?

So being the peace loving person I am, I will never be hesitant or afraid to be judged in using the peace sign. It has become a part of our culture and natural human behavior so shouldn't we be proud and embrace it? 



Oh and before I end, I think it's time to mention the hippies who made the peace symbol very popular that losers like us copied them and made it mainstream. 

You rock guys.



(I guess I did become cheesy there but come on..... I'm talking about peace and it's Christmas, bitches! Can't help to be even a little mushier than usual)

Share the peace everyone, especially this Christmas season! :)

Make peace not war yo! ✌

-k ;)
