daniel keyes - flowers for algernon milan kundera - unbearable lightness of being nick hornby - high fidelity
daniel keyes' flowers for algernon,
milan kundera's unbearable lightness of being, and nick hornby's high fidelity


was too lazy to find proper pictures, so these covers ripped from amazon.com will have to do. and yup, i'm going to read them in that order. the first one is about a retarded boy (seriously, now) who becomes a genius after an experimental brain operation only previously tested on animals.

the second is a novel about philosophy, love, kind of. you can call it arty farty and intellectual and abstract, if you're that kind of person.

the third is supposed to be a light-hearted and funny book, a comedy? typical nick hornby stay-up-all-night, page-flipping goodness. about middle-aged guy having a tough time making transitions, as amazon.com tells it. (i'm sure you can tell how much i love amazon.com, even though i don't buy from them. books, videos, music, no matter how abstract and unheard/unseen, you can find it here. just at the press of a key; marvels of the information age?)

also went to catch harry potter with diana.

it was quite funny because this dummy didn't bring her handphone back to singapore (due to it the phone being 'locked to the provider', but i shan't digress). and she didn't bring out any phone at all, and she doesn't have a house phone either. so i wanted to tell her that i'd be 30 minutes late, due to an unusually long game of dota (haha, ok don't start about dota. but i was winning, fortunately). so in the end i rushed down in a taxi, only to find out that i couldn't contact her? and the dumbest part was that i half-forget where we were supposed to meet. bummer.

luckily it was sorted out soon enough.

and also finally figured out the name of that quiz: sudoku. anyone up for a challenge? hahaha i'm going to try to win the new paper competition thing! there's one every week, right?

zzzzzzzzzzzz
