Whoa...I see myself in 8~~ X3 Glad to be of service. :3

Utada~~~ I still love her. X3 and Yoojin...I have no comm. with her recently. T___T I miss her.

I forgot I was supposed to comment on books. Being a litt. major now...officially since my adviser recently accepted me into the program, LOL. I had word of it last night. I have been reading a lot of books. I read Dan Brown's the Davinci Code, too, but that was a long time ago. I didn't like it much. Now Gabriel Garcia Marquez on the other hand...he's brilliant <3 One Hundred Years of Solitude won the Nobel Prize and it's an awesome book. The genre is magical realism as my teacher says which is why it is appealing. At first, it's hard to understand but I'm just finishing it and it took me two to three months to finish it what with work and all. XD I left it in the dorm because I'm pretty sure a friend will be borrowing it afterwards, then my teacher then I'll be rereading it. o.O I left all the other books I bought from National and the Book Sale in Dumaguete and have been reading a ( ... )

Yeah~ I'm just sad that lately I haven't been inspired to shoot anything lately. I just feel so dead.

Me too. I actually emailed her last month but she hasn't replied. I think she might be busy. Maybe she uses facebook but I do not have one. Which makes this sadder. I miss her so much ...

Hundred Years of Solitude is in my list. xD I am going to find a copy as soon as I finish the books I have with me now. I am finishing up the Villa and the Da Vinci Code. I am sorry I am taking such a long time to return your book! It is safe. xD

I have seen Bob Ong's books around but his genre didn't seem like my type. I always wanted to read a Murakami book but the problem is that they are so darn expensive. xD I might borrow someday. I am going on a reading spree right now. LOL I miss reading. I am taking my vacation time to read. My English has been so weak lately. Actually --- maybe much longer. ;A;

Bob Ong is pretty good. He's been experimenting with a lot of things recently. I love MacArthur and his non-fiction is right on point of Filipino culture which is just LOVE. He points out the flaws so well and highlights some of the better traits of the Filipinos. I suppose if everyone read his work, then a lot of people would try and change their ways, unless they did not want to. There's not much to be said about his fiction but MacArthur is awesome. I'm not sure about all the others. I'm still looking for more of his books. :) one of the must-follow authors who writes in the Filipino language, btw. it's better than the romance stories cropping up in Precious Hearts or whatever.

It's okay. Just take your time. I'm reading Norwegian Wood at the moment. I don't think I'll finish this in a month, too. The language is fine and not as imagery filled as Gabriel Garcia Marquez's stuff but still good. it's got bits and pieces of Japanese culture that I love <3 ( ... )
