What are you doing the rest of your life?
I don't know about you. I know I'm going to be reading. English novels that is.
I currently am reading The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. If you like history, devious and ugly vampires (not your usual romantic-novel-fare), and flashbacks, and letters, then this is the book for you. It's about this (nameless, as the author doesn't mention the names of main characters much) chick who discovers that her father discovers that his professor and himself have something in common. A book. With a woodcut of Dracula aka Vlad the Impaler on it. Istanbul and the usual Transylvania fare. Nice book.
I am also currently going through some Death Note manga. Yaya, it's a comic. But I am only human, needing graphics to stimulate imagination, not just words. What kind of graphics and imagination, I leave it up to you to find out.
Bought Persuasion and Pride and Prejudice which are both by Jane "The Honourable" Austen. At a dirt cheap price. At Sunway Square. One font-size 10 book costed RM 8.50. Now that's fricken cheap, if we were to compare classics books to modern day novels.
Attended some mockingbird TAYMUN Conference on Saturday. All I have to say is I got pretty sleepy after a lunch in which proud PM4-ers accused me of being a fake PM4 even though I never was a PM4-ian.(I read that post on me by the way, Kong Chia Yew...very funny...) Bugger. Then Ken Vin and I went to Subway to get some "cookies" for Roshan and the both of us. Bla bla bla, then after the conference, we went to Ken Vin's one room place of residence. Such a spartan, sparse room compared to his room(s) in Ampang.
Tags will come later if I can overcome my fear of lameness.
