For the past two or three days (I can't really tell...), I've been in my grandparents' house in Bagui, without internet, sufficient entertainment, and communication to the outside worl (a.k.a. Monica).
I don't mind, really, becayse I did just want to kick back, do nothing (but not to the point of boredom), and be productive. The latter was accomplished slightly.
I'm done with more than 3/4 of Eragon, going at a steady pace. Why, I remember spending a day sleeping until noon, reading until I got tired again (which was about less than an hour...), and drifting back to sleep. The cycle continued until I wake up the next day.
Aside from reading, I've done other things to quench my boredom and liven up the stifled silence of a mountain province. Let me list 2.
1. Finished a
500-piece jigsaw puzzle of the Camelot Inn (of Glastonbusy, Somerset, England). I suffered only a mild, wavering headache, fortunately.
2. I won my first game of Solitaire on an iPod. I always wondered if you can win in iPod games, so...yeah.
During those activities (3 including Eragon) I had Take That's comeback album, Beautiful World, on loop. I've fallen in love with I'd Wait For Life. Whenever I'm reading, and the chorus comes up, I put the book down and just feel the words. <33 it.
Speaking of Eragon, I kick myself in my imaginary balls for watching the movie first. It's only after reading his last part in the book where I appreciated Brom (and I'd Wait For Life was playing...man, I wanted to cry).
And Murtagh was more playful in the book than in the movie (where he didn't even get a substantial part!).
He was less...badish. That was cool and all...BUT HE TOOK OF HIS TUNIC! Why the hell didn't they show that in the movie?! Garrett doesn't mind showing a wee bit of skin (or a lot of it in Four Brothers)...man...
The past half-week has been one of the most productive days I've had in a long time. I'm strangely pleased.
But then again, something happened today. I don't really feel bad, but it was such a waste. ...I need to find away to gain back the 3 days I've wasted on that thing.
Note to self: C-A-R-I-B-B-E-A-N.
Argh it. Haha.
