We share lots of fun together. We had wars, jokes, celebrations, bonds and joke,jokes,jokess. It's as if everything we've been through was made of joke.haha., but seriously I love these people.We seldom meet each other too and I miss those times that we had together.We even call each other with silly names and our friendship had already came to the point where we can already insult each other (just forn fun, of course)haha. Every time I think about them, I can't help but to laugh. I met Katrina when I was in 1st yr. high school and the rest I met them in 2nd yr. We were classmates in the 10th section of the Tech.Voc. Curriculum at the Abellana National School. We've separate ways (schools) in college. Katrina,Me and Edda (she's not in the photo above) are currently studying at Cebu Normal University. Christine and Shiena are in Cebu Institute of Technology- University (both are taking up Psychology). Marilyn and Mark Anthony are in University of Cebu (both are sharing the same degree programs too- BS Information Technology). Johara is still in high school she will graduate this March anyway.


 Edda Mae Miego. - This is my ate Edda!~ She is a member of Tokio Spice too. Unfortunately we never had a photo with all of tokio spice members in it since ate isn't allowed to went out with us when there's no classes. Shiena is the closest friend of ate in high school. She's often shy and quite but when ate speaks it is always the truth and she speaks sincerely. She is a very nice friend and is always there to comfort you. && she loves korean and japanese guys hehehe :)





Mark Anthony Casicas.- The flower among the alugbatihan! Sucker, as what we call him. He is the only male member of the Tokio Spice. A JNIAN of course. What I like about thisy guy, our guys is his being cooperative especially in our plans whether it is bullshit or not he is always there to ask us how our plan is going on. And like Chuckie (Marilyn) he never runs out of joke.And when he deliver is joke.AYg pada!!! hahaha

The JNIANS. - My classmates when I was in my 2nd yr. high school. I miss these people. I wish I had longer time with them. Even now I still think about them and the good times we had together.

I just hope that even if we won't meet each other again ( for some certain circumstances) all of us would lead a long and happy life. We all deserve it don't we? hahahha.

     Bloodline was the fifth book I read that was written by Sidney Sheldon. I first read one of his novels two years ago when I was still in junior high. The book I read back then was Rage of Angels. At first, I thought it might be boring because of its old appearance. It belonged to my older brother, who claimed he found it somewhere on a highway (IDK if he was telling the truth ;p). Wherever it came from or who really owned it didn’t matter; what mattered was that the book was something precious.

     At that time, I hadn’t developed a reading habit, but Sidney Sheldon’s novel led me into a reading addiction. After finishing Rage of Angels, I continued reading more of his works when I entered university, including If Tomorrow Comes, Tell Me Your Dreams, and Morning, Noon & Midnight. Bloodline is the only Sidney Sheldon book I own. I purchased it for just 77.00 PHP, yes, very cheap because I bought it from BookSale, a second-hand bookstore in the Philippines. Sidney Sheldon’s books have always been on my favorite list.

     Bloodline is another must-read. The story revolves around the Roffe family, owners of a multi-billion-dollar company, Roffe and Sons. The entire family is devastated when Sam Roffe, the head of the company, dies in a mysterious accident, leaving his daughter Elizabeth to manage the company. Soon, Elizabeth discovers that her relatives are eager to sell their shares, turning the company into a public one. But that’s not all: Elizabeth also finds herself at the top of her murderer’s list.

    The book is full of suspense and thrills. I would be overjoyed to read all of Sidney Sheldon’s books. His stories never fail to surprise and engage me. What intrigues me most is the space he gives readers to speculate on possible events, like the role of Kate Erling in the Roffe family, the real relationship between Helene and Rhys, and the detailed conspiracies Sir Alec might have plotted in his mind. Most disturbing of all is the question: Who killed Sam Roffe? I scanned the book repeatedly, but it wasn’t explicitly stated. Helene bought mountain climbing shoes, yet Rhys accompanied him, and Sam Roffe’s death remained ambiguous.

   As you reach the ending chapters, even more shocking revelations unfold. Indeed, Bloodline is another masterpiece from the master of thrillers himself, Sidney Sheldon.
