Forget getting a boat, or even staying in bed or day. I have found a nice place to spend my day. An outdoor swing in the shade beside a fountain. It is now my sekrit corner kekeke. Having gotten used to reading at the back of buses (O_o), reading while lying down in a swing is no problem!
On the list of three things in the previous post, i had completed two by now. I have cleared my room and gotten -most- of what i was supposed to get. (aw man, still some left) The only thing left is probably to cut my hair. However, as I am still unable to be convinced that my hair is long, I shall bother about it next month (which is a week or two away)
Despite getting my next year books already, I honestly DGAS. I am still gonna go ahead with this voucher and get at least three books today. http://email.borders.com.au/sg/2007/20071116/coupon-01-sg.html (PWEE! TO CIRCULATE!) I hope i don’t get into trouble for posting it everywhere. What? Am I to sacrifice my reading time for fiction books?
Much unlike L, I seem to have less appreciation for literature or fiction (same thing la really) Perhaps my mind just doesn’t have the imaginative capabilities — and needs to be aided by pictures… The only other thing I’d bother reading would be the translated light novels >_<
To my surprise, some books (mainly the plays) like Medea and Miss Julie are very thin. It makes 15 books look easier until you realise that the text is assholic to read. I hope never to have to do Medea. My hypothesis is that I’ll get to skive off pretty much and super streamline eventually, reading only what I feel like reading.
I never did recall reading a fiction novel really. reading 15 books probably wouldn’t kill me at all, or maybe i have convinced myself that I don’t like literature (in my teammate’s blog terms: “i killed it”)… After all opinions, feelings, emotions can be all controlled by the mind — or so i believe, that rationality owns all. Then again, I am one who is unopinionated and neutral to begin with, often due to internal conflicting extremes of views that cancels out totally.
In any case, I’ll probably spent the rest of the holidays away from the com and on the boat swing either lazing or reading or something. Now now, if only I had a MP3 player…
But for now, I shall prepare to collect four more lit texts (then i’l have two more left) and head off to use my voucher!
