For some odd reason, I went into book and notebooks shopping spree last week at the National Bookstore.
I bought Al Ries and Jack Trout’s Marketing Warfare at a bargain price of P700, notebooks in two sizes, a new photo album to organize my new photos, Avanti gel pens in three colors and a small pencil case. I happened to pass by FUNctional shop and bought two markers. Later, I might buy a good sketch pad and a pen brush since I have unearthed from nowhere the book on Anime drawing I bought two years ago from Fully-Booked.
As of today, I have three books on my computer table that kept me company for the past two days I was in bed due to flu. The third one, The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey, is a good book I got from my brother’s room. I only have but one thing to tell you: this book will definitely change the way you see and know Jesus.
In fact, after reading half way through the book, I am now torn between visiting Hong Kong and embarking on Holy Land tour Christ’s Commission Fellowship organizes annually. Yancey’s book so intrigued me I want to see Jerusalem and its outskirts for myself and understand how Jesus lived as man in a community known for its rigid observance of the Torah. I am not sure if next year would be the right time to explore Israel with terrorists sending off bombers to Gaza Strip. Remind me to get a life insurance quote.
Christ's Commission Fellowship, Holy Land Tour, Marketing warzone, Philip Yancey


i also saw the book, i think, in powerbooks. i was also so intrigued by it that i made a decision to buy it next pay day. ngayon, lalo akong na intriga. hahahahahaha!!!
it is my lifelong dream to visit and tour jerusalem and israel. to pay homage to the land where my Lord and my Savior was born. i am actually saving for it that i cannot buy or travel to more expensive cities like US or Europe. kso major turn off tlaga yung mga bombings.
I’m a sucker for books, notebooks and pens to a sickening degree. But since I got married and had to compromise some space in the shelves and boxes, I have been following (not religiously, though) a moratorium on book buying. Besides, I have a huge pile of books waiting to be read, purchased out of compulsion and excitement. ;oP
