Seeing that I was so stressed I made myself sick, I decided I needed a break. I still felt shity anyway, so I ditched today's only class and did nothing. It was glorious. I kinda keep on cringing at everything I still have to work on, but I really really needed it ( Read more... )

You should - it's fun and better written than Twilight, only with less cheese and loltasticness, hee.

Re: the ending of Fight Club, I don't think you need to apologise for liking the movie's ending better. This may be a completely apocryphal story but I heard from a Fight Club-obsessed friend that when Palahniuk saw the movie he decided he liked their ending better too.

Mmm, I'd heard about that, but wasn't sure that it was actually true - it's pretty awesome, actually, for a writer to admit to that :D

EXACTLY. She could've just put it right there with the YA books and no one would've noticed, for Christ's sake. Lol, smallville fic XD I remember getting caught up in the clex future fic some time ago - we broke up when the series just got too annoying, lol.

i was thinking about downloading The Host for the lulz. i may have to after all. but an adult book without anything that makes it ostensibly adult? oh, SMeyer. :|

Fight Club! ♥ i liked the movie's ending better as well so i don't think you're a Horrible Person™ for it. and i agree that the book and the movie compliment each other quite well. whenever i see the movie, i want to go over to my bookshelf and read it again!

I KNOW! In all honesty, I only read it BECAUSE it was 'adult' - I wanted to see if she'd be as much as a prude in this one AND SHE WAS. BAH. The book on itself wasn't as horrid, though, probably because they WEREN'T teenagers?

Yeaaaah. I own the movie, and I've been aching to see it again since I finished the book, but haven't had the time yet. WOE.
