Jodi Picoult's Tenth Circle?
very lazy to do up my resume for the perth assignment. thing is, i dun have anything substantial to write! unlike my colleague who got strings to pull and had contributed to the company in many ways.. im only a fresh grad and they are looking for engineers with 5 year experience so im pretty hopeless.. hahaha shall see how again tmr ba. shall do it up in the morning once im done with my deliverables.
one more flight of choice came up after chatting with my manager this afternoon - KLM! apparently it flies to paris direct and goes to birmingham too so actually me and les can tour paris first and i get to save abit on the tickets from birm to paris (original plan) so why not! plus the timings are goood. i get to fly 2330h and reach paris 13 hours later at 6am and return from birm at 1725hours and reach singapore 17 hours later after transiting through Amsterdam at around 1625hours! wont jet lag toooo badly i think and i get to fly direct to paris! at least i only transit once on the way back its only a 2 hour stop... close to 2k though, not complaining since it flies to birmingham which is alot closer to leslie's place and we can spend more time together on the 2nd :)
finished another jodi picoult's book after Change of Heart. i really liked change of heart; i enjoyed the storyline even though Shay still had to die but the Tenth Circle really saddened me. I didnt expect Jason to die at all - i mean, even though he raped Trixie, i was sad when he died. it became really traumatising after his apparent suicide (later deemed to be murder) because i felt that both teens should have been given a chance to repent and make changes to their lives. sure, they both made mistakes, i cant really say which evil is the greater of the two, but both still deserved a chance to turn over a new leaf and come back together. sigh. :( i felt jason's pain when his scholarship and post grad were taken away from him - to the extent that i felt it was unfair. but then again, given the circumstances, it couldnt be helped. and he died. sigh. this is probably the other book after The Pact where i felt unexplained sadness for the teens. maybe because they are just teenagers - i always felt that teenagers should be given more chance and room to make mistakes and learn from them. but of course... okay nevermind. shall not deliberate further hahaha. not making any sense anymore, somehow i feel that my sympathy to the teenagers are illogical but then again... oh well NEVERMIND. hahaha they are just books.
moving on next with nicholas sparks' Notebook! :D
