She was the girl who sang at 11, too skinny to be seen, too young to be taken seriously.
Now she's a woman with stories to tell about love, heartbreak, faith, fame, and the quiet journey of finding herself.
This is not just a memoir.
It's a letter to the girl I used to be, and to every girl still learning how to become.
Before I say "I do,"
I want to remember who I was,
and honor who I'm becoming.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DREAM
Everyone saw the dream. No one saw the cost. This is not just a story about working abroad. It's about what happens after the plane lands. About the aching silence of hospital shifts, the goodbyes said through video calls, and the grief that doesn't wait for permission to arrive. Told through the eyes of a Filipino nurse in the UK, The Other Side of the Dream is a raw, intimate journey of love, loss, burnout, faith, and healing. From the heartbreak of watching her father's last breath through a screen to the quiet breakdowns between promotions, AJ Gabriel writes with the kind of honesty that doesn't scream-but stays. Each chapter is a letter. A prayer. A confession. And woven through every page is music-songs that carried her when words failed. This book is for every OFW who smiled while silently falling apart. For every daughter who left to build a future and lost parts of herself along the way. For every nurse who gave everything and finally learned to choose herself, too. This is the story of the strength no one sees. The silent faith that held her together. And the quiet voice that finally said, "This is my truth." © 2025 AJ Gabriel. All rights reserved.

Lost In The Mind of Me
Laid upon the pages of this book is a story. This is an autobiography. I struggled with writing this and, as you will soon understand, though I knew how to write it, writing it and thinking about it was difficult. I have not labeled the chapters in hopes that you will read all the way through. You may understand me a little more if you do so, but, on the same note, you may end up hating me. I do not know what your reaction will be, but I will allow your opinion of me. I give you full permission to judge me, only when you read everything. This is on my struggles with mental illness, traumatic events, my opinions, my thoughts, my feelings; this is a tour of my mind. Be warned, it's dark and haunted. But I felt it important for me to write this, so maybe I can overcome it. Thank you for picking this text to enlighten you. I am not the smartest, nor am I the wisest, but I will do my best to paint a delicate image in your mind by how I string together my semblant words.Lengkap
Mind the Bedpan: Tales of a Filipina Nurse Lost (and Found) in the NHS
They told her to "mind the gap," but no one warned her about the bedpans, baffling slang, and the sacred art of making tea. In Mind the Bedpan, a Filipina nurse shares her wildly honest, often hilarious, and deeply human journey of working in the UK's National Health Service. From navigating cultural quirks (like being politely asked if she wanted to "spend a penny") to decoding British humor, surviving night shifts, and introducing adobo to confused coworkers, this book is a love letter to nurses, migrants, and anyone brave enough to start over somewhere unfamiliar. Told with wit, warmth, and the kind of wisdom that only comes after 4 back-to-back shifts and one too many cups of cold coffee, this is more than just a memoir-it's a celebration of resilience, rice, and finding your place in the chaos. Perfect for: • Nurses and healthcare workers • OFWs and immigrants • Readers who love heart, humor, and healing in equal measure So grab a cuppa, get comfy, and don't forget-mind the bedpan. Also available on amazon paperback https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F6JRC5P4?dplnkId=791f2062-7c5a-4aa9-92f6-1323bd538948&nodl=1 Copyright © AJ GABRIEL 2025 All rights reserved.

"Things I Never Said Out Loud"
These are truths I was never taught to speak. Here lie the words I swallowed, the pain I buried, and the questions they told me not to ask. For the unheard. For the unseen. For the ones who feel too much in a world that tells them to feel less. I write for you. I write for me.Lengkap
Rebirth of Fa Wei Lan
I am dying - it was inevitable. The poison given to me over the course of several months have spread throughout my veins and seep through my bones. I was alone. There was not one single person to hold me, to comfort me, or to cry for me... I am all alone...

Between The Lines Of My Life
She grew up in a house where love was quiet but steady folded into warm meals, handwritten letters never sent, and stories whispered through the walls. Raised by her grandparents in a small barrio of Davao, she dreamed of a life beyond the horizon but never imagined how far she would have to go to truly find her way back home. Between the Lines of My Life is a heartfelt memoir of a daughter, a dreamer, and a healer torn between past and present, duty and desire, silence and voice. Through memories both tender and painful, Dr. Kaia Velora traces the shape of a life built not from grand moments, but from the pauses in between. A journal of healing, of returning, of becoming. This is for every soul who has ever longed for home, for answers, for peace. For those who have ever wondered if they are enough. Sometimes, the most powerful stories are not the ones shouted aloud but the ones written softly between the lines. Between The Lines of My Life by Hershey O.Lengkap
