astrid from White Oleander is a great character. it is a "coming of age" book, but w/ a twist considering her mother is in prison for murder. she had to spend her teenage years within foster homes.. there's a movie out about this book, but i think they failed to show her strength. astrid was...

Life of Pi? man, that book seems to be really popular lately.

i've read one or two of those when i was younger.. i dont really remember why i stopped. i think maybe cause it was to many unfortunate events for me =P

haha.. it definatly makes sense. i probably have done that a few times without completely realizing it. well, right now i do not want to re-read twp of my favorite books b/c it won't be as great the next time.

ah, the weather. i used to watch the weather channal all the time when i was younger. i really do not know why. now i just check it once in a while (usually mornings) so i'll know what to wear. =P

hmm my first computer was a machintosh.. i dunno the exact title.. it cost around $3500.. ahh piece of crap =P small monitor.. the color distorted quickly.. the sound screwed up tons of times but i think that was my dads arrogant doing.. just.. not worth the money

lmao i wonder how bushes autobiography would look like. 'i graduated out of yale with a C- average and was a alcoholic before i discovered the hypocritical word of jesus' i think i'd read it just for kicks. unfortunatly maybe i'd end up kicking the book before i'd finish it

hm. it does depend for me. i used to be able to read extremely quickly. realistic fiction [good ol' teenager books] i can read very quickly. its just simple writing. literature takes me a while. it also depends how interesting the book is. i have a habit of putting the book down rather often

i couldn't get past the first few pages of that book. i just couldn't stand it. i couldn't stand the concept or the immaturity of the writing. i've considered giving it another try, but i guess i never got around to it.

i think the last time i wrote a fanfic was when i was 11. that should say something. i guess i can understand why its appealing to a certain point, but its just not the same. you can take the characters and some of their traits, but you just cannot mimick the origninal writer the same way. it is...

ah, i remember those days. i miss them. i had nothing to worry about, school wise at least.
