2012 Reading Challenge
« on: January 05, 2012, 08:40:00 am »
As we have done last year, let us continue challenging ourselves to read as much as we can mga sis!
I have done 90 out of a goal of 70 books last 2011 so my goal this year will be:

80 books! Goodluck sa atin mga sis  :)

Di ko na-achieve yung goal ko ng 2011. :( Sayang. 47 of 50 lang! Sayang. Kinapos na kasi sa oras. This year, 30 books lang ang goal ko. I'll be going back to school kasi, medyo magiging busy. Goodluck to us all.  ;)

Nice to see some of our sisses from last year's reading challenge. Welcome to the new sisses!

The reading challenge and the GT Book club actually helped me a lot in achieving my goal of trimming down my TBR list. Sarap to know that there are a lot who shares the same interest/love for reading. Nakaka-inspire.

With this new year, part of my goal is to trim down my TBR list from my bookshelf (the physical books itself). Iwas muna sa ebooks (which tends to pile up exponentially din..wahh!)

Goodluck sa atin mga sis!

I made my goal last year to read 50 books despite my busy schedule and travels abroad for business and fun he he. This year, my schedule is even more packed so I thought of reading 30 books but who knows, I might be able to squeeze in some time to read a couple more.
