(no subject)
been reading.. quite a bit. a LARGE assortment of books that i got from borders after a 30 percent discount.. the catcher in the rye was not as groundbreaking as i thought.in fact, the ending was damn anti-climatic. shrug. do androids dream of electric sheep? was okay i guess.. but i think the androids-are-they-REALLY-human?!-thingus was just kinda overplayed. lolita was like a MOTHER OF A BOOK.. the book actually opened my mind to alot of new ideas actually.. non perverted ones though -.-... but the use of an "unreliable narrator" or a narrator that moulds hard facts into a story that are more palatable intrigued me. of course this would not have been possible if he didnt admit all his wrongdoings and his wishywashymeanderingbullcrap at the end of the book. come to think of it.. IM full of wishwashymeanderingbullcrap. lol. that should be my middle name! or something...but i think ive grown LESS of that.. in the year... i think.(:
ANYWAY, i have started a SMALL magic draft enclave in my platoon! HAHAH as a result ive played 3 drafts in a SINGULAR week. mwahahahah. but what to do.. need to kill time siaz.. and monopoly was getting SERIOUSLY too boring. as well as risk.:X. next week, a friend is bringing WEIQI! and i can be reaccustomed with my favourite game.(: so yeah.. meeting greg next week for the ENTIRE week.. and he'll be TEACHING ME LESSONS.. so yeah THAT'LL be SOME experience huh! (: so all in all ALL IS LOOKING WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!
except the fact that i'm doing two consec guard duties on a weekend.
but you know... C'EST LA VIE!!!! THIS IS LIFE!!! and LIFE IS TOUGH. yeah.. still remembered this forum shit i created in sec 1 called LiFe Is ToUgH..its so TOTALLY lame looking back on hindsight.. but also.. TOTALLY....
true.
in any case, my white-bar days are whittling to an end... so wish me luck!(:
ANYWAY back to books,
reading this book called "the unbearable lightness of being" by milan kundera. im only halfway through but it looks as though its potentially groundbreaking.. he writes in a half expo half narrative style... which unlike many other fiction books make me FEEL as though im learning something.. which i am! looks cheem at first but makes alot of solid sense. or at least philosophical sense. what would life be without burdens?
yeah. the unbearable lightness of being.
thats me manz lol.
