last night i went out with my mom to the library. i wanted to take out a few books, just to read something refreshing since we have not been reading anything in AP Lit, and that has been holding me back a little bit. shaw didnt assign us a book to read over the regents week we had off and since he has been absent, we dont have to read anything over this vacation either. which is good only because it was supposedly King Lear and i wasnt too excited about shakespeare.
of course, the library did not have either of the books I was looking for. (The 5 people you meet in heaven, The perks of being a wallflower) But I did see Caitlin O'reilly and we talked for a little while.
then my mom and i picked up her tax forms and came home, when i decided i needed to find a book. I dont know why I do that sometimes. I mean, i really like to read but sometimes i will go a while without reading anything or having an interest, and then all of a sudden i want to. i figure its a better way to pass the time. i decided i would head over to borders and possibly purchase my own copy, especially since by recommendation, they were to be good books. so sabila came with me and we went in search of.
we had fun at borders. i mean honestly as nerdy as it sounds, it is pretty fun. and you dont feel like such a dirt bag either. so we looked at the sale racks and i got a little METS calender with some statistics and what not on it, i figured that would be appropriate seeing that spring training and baseball is just around the corner. then we looked for books. just random books. books about sex, books about life, books about personality disorders, books about relationships (okay okay i know the first thing i write about is sex, i didnt mean for it but im not retyping it just to sound less crazy or perverted) We found a book called "Book Lust", which was basically a well read authors opinion on "good books" to read, whatever the mood is. So we sat down to check it out and see what is recommended
But sabila and i ended up just talking and all instead. which is just fine. we had alot to talk about. and we always do. theres just something about being around sabila that reminds me there is hope, as crazy as it sounds. then we began to look for our orinal reason for being there in the first place.
honestly there are so many books i want to read. and i feel that lately since my life seems to be at sort of a standstill almost, it would be a good time to catch up on some needed geekage. i mean, just to maybe escape from my world to put myself into another for a little while is what i need. and that is what i got.
i bought "The Perks of being a wallflower", and "Scary Kisses". Came home, exercized and started reading.
I have to say, The Perks of being a wallflower is one of the few if possibly the only book that I found easy to read right through front to back, every single word and paragraph in it's entirety, without my mind wandering off and becoming antsy. No, this book, I found it difficult to even put down. Last night I began the book at about 11:00 PM, and my mom kept insisting I go to bed. It took me probably till about 1 AM or so to decide i should attempt to sleep. I woke up this morning barely tired, went to school, and during every minute I had to myself I would pick it up and continue.
The most honest book out there. You really feel for the characters, and not only that but you sense their genuinity.
I think that is a word.
So basically, I enjoyed the book. Definetly recommend it to you if you are listening to me ramble, because im in such a good mood, for no apparant reason, and you enjoy reading.
By the way, any good books to recommend me, while i'm feeling extra ambicious on the first day of break? i thnk next on my list is "The Five people you meet in heaven" and then maybe "Catcher in the Rye".
I suppose this entry is somewhat stupid. But maybe not. I mean, I do sort of feel a little better about myself, instead of rambling on about how much my day sucked or how much tonight will probably suck.. (which most likely will because there is jack shit to do in this lovely town...) but i am not getting into that now while Im in a good mood.
